We offer our portfolio of services for new and existing single-family and multi-family residential and commercial building projects from our national network of over 125180 branch locations inserving all 48 continental states and the District of Columbia. Substantially all of our sales are derived from the service-based installation of various products in the residential new construction, repair and remodel and commercial construction end markets. Each of our branches has the capacity to serve all of our end markets. We believe we have the number one or two market position for new single-family insulation installation in more than half of the markets in which we operate based on permits issued in those markets. We are committed to delivering quality installation with a commitment to safety, corporate social responsibility and total customer satisfaction.
Our business began in 1977 with one location in Columbus, Ohio. In January 2017,the late 1990s, we acquired Trilok Industries, Inc.,Alpha Insulationbegan our acquisition strategy with the goal of creating a national platform.

OUR OPERATIONS
We manage all aspects of the installation process for our customers, from our direct purchase and receipt of materials from national manufacturers to our timely supply of materials to job sites and quality installation. Installation of insulation is a critical phase in the construction process, as certain interior work cannot begin until the insulation phase passes inspection. We benefit from our national scale, long-standing supplier relationships and a broad customer base that includes production and custom homebuilders, multi-family and commercial construction firms and homeowners.

Our business beganmodel is differentiated and creates value by streamlining the typical value chain. In a typical building products value chain, manufacturers rely on multiple distributors to purchase in 1977 with one locationvolume and stock product. Distributors serve multiple wholesale and retail accounts who in Columbus, Ohio. Inturn sell to local contractors that perform the late 1990s, we began our acquisition strategy with the goal of creating a national platform. Since 1999, we have successfully completed and integrated over 125 acquisitions, which has allowed us to generate significant scale and to diversify our product offerings while expanding into someinstallation. We buy most of the most attractive new construction markets in the United States. We believeproducts that we install direct from manufacturers which are well positioned to continue to profitably grow our business duedelivered to our strong balance sheet, liquidity and continuing acquisition strategy.

OUR OPERATIONS

We manage all aspects of thelocal installation process for our customers, from our direct purchase and receipt of materials from national manufacturers to our timely supply of materials to job sites and quality installation:

Our Typical Installation Process

In each of our markets, our branch management and staff foster close working relationships with local customers.

Our branch management hires and trains installers with a focus on quality, safety and timely installation.

Our branch sales staff analyzes construction plans and measures the installation jobs to prepare customer proposals that comply with local building codes and energy efficiency standards and meet customer requirements.

Our branches order and receive delivery of materials directly from national manufacturers.

Our branches break bulk shipments and load required materials onto our vehicles for each job and manage installer schedules to ensure timely installation that meets our customers’ scheduling requirements.operations.

For each phase of product installation, our installers prepare the job site, professionally install the materials to pass inspection,clean-up when the installation is complete and return unused materials to the branch.
Insulation

Our customers generally select their building products installer based on quality and timeliness of service, knowledge of local building codes, product application expertise, pricing, relationships and reputation in the market. For these reasons, we emphasize the importance of developing and maintaining customer relationships at the local level and rely heavily on the knowledge and experience of our branch management and staff.

Once we are selected for an installation job, our branch staff coordinates with our customer to ensure that the job is completed in a quality manner and within the customer’s production schedule. Throughout the construction process, our branch sales and supervisory staff and installation teams make frequent site visits to ensure timely and proper installation and to provide general service support. We believe a high level of service is valued by our customers and generates customer loyalty. There are typically three phases to complete a residential insulation installation: (i) basement insulation installation; (ii) installation of insulation in the exterior walls and air sealing of the structure; and (iii) ceiling and attic insulation installation. We also assist the builders with coordinating inspection. We believe that our ability to consistently complete our installations within a customer’s production schedule is recognized by our customers and is a key component of our high level of service.

Insulation

Overview

We are one of the largest new residential insulation installers in the United States based on our internal estimates. Insulation installation comprised approximately 67%64% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017.2019. We handle every stage of the installation process, including material procurement, project scheduling and logistics, multi-phase professional installation and field quality inspection.

1

Insulation Materials

We offer a wide range of insulation materials consisting of:

Fiberglass and Cellulose Insulation – Fiberglass insulation is made of fibrous glass that is held together by a thermoset resin creating insulating air pockets. It typically contains an average of 50% recycled content. It is primarily available in two forms: batts (also referred to as blankets) and loosefill (also referred to as blown in). Fiberglass is the most widely used residential insulation material in the United States. Cellulose insulation is made primarily of paper and cardboard and has a very high recycled content. Cellulose is only available in loosefill form and is blown into the structure with specialized equipment. Fiberglass and cellulose insulation accounted for approximately 86%85% of our insulation sales for the year ended December 31, 2017.2019.

Spray Foam Insulation – Spray foam insulation, which is generally a polyurethane foam, is applied at a job site by mixing two chemical components together in specialized application equipment. While typically having the highest insulating value per inch and sealing effectiveness of all insulation

materials that we offer, spray foam is also typically the most expensive on an installed basis. Spray foam insulation accounted for approximately 15% of our insulation sales for the year ended December 31, 2019.

materials that we offer, spray foam is also typically the most expensive on an installed basis. Spray foam insulation accounted for approximately 14% of our insulation sales for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Insulation Installation Applications

Local building codes typically require the installation of insulation in multiple areas of a structure. Each of these areas is frequently referred to as a phase of the insulation installation process and requires a separate trip to the job site by our installers at different points in the construction of a structure. Building practice and the inspection process differ geographically and require our involvement at different times during the construction process. We assist the builders with coordinating inspections. We install insulation and sealant materials in many areas of a structure, including:

Basement and Crawl Space – These spaces often account for the second most energy loss in a residential structure.

Building Envelope – We insulate the exterior walls of both residential and commercial structures by applying insulation on the wall or between the studs.

Attic – We insulate the attics of new and existing residential structures. The attic is the area where the most energy may be lost in a home.

Acoustical – Many builder or architect specifications call for acoustical insulation for sound reduction purposes in both residential and commercial structures. This product is generally installed in the interior walls to minimize sound transmission.

In each of these applications, we typically use fiberglass batts, except in attic installations where we typically install loosefill fiberglass.fiberglass or cellulose.

We also install a wide variety of advanced caulk and sealant products that control air infiltration in residential and commercial buildings to enhance energy efficiency, improve comfort and meet increasingly stringent energy code requirements.
Waterproofing

Some of our locations install waterproofing, caulking and moisture protection systems for commercial and industrial construction projects. We offer a variety of waterproofing options, including, but not limited to, sheet and hot applied waterproofing membranes, deck coating systems, bentonite systems and air & vapor systems. The installation and service of waterproofing comprised approximately 8%7% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Shower Doors, Closet Shelving and Mirrors

Some of our locations install a variety of shower enclosures, ranging from basic sliding door designs to complex custom designs. We have the ability to meet our customers’ diverse needs by customizing shower enclosures by size and style according to their specifications, including framing, hardware and glass options. We design and install closet shelving systems in select markets utilizing some of the highest quality products available from national brands. We also offer standard and custom designed mirrors for our customers. Shower doors, closet shelving and mirror installations comprised approximately 7% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017.

2019.

Garage Doors

Some of our locations install and service garage doors and openers for new residential construction builders, homeowners and commercial customers. We offer a variety of options from some of the best-known garage door brands. We offer steel, aluminum, wood and vinyl garage doors as well as opener systems. Unlike the other products we install, the garage door business has an ongoing aftermarket service component, which represented almost
one-third
of the net revenue resulting from garage doors for the year ended December 31, 2017.2019. The installation and service of garage doors comprised approximately 5%6% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017.

2019.

Rain Gutters

Some of our locations install a wide range of rain gutters, which direct water from a home’s roof away from the structure and foundation. Rain gutters are typically constructed from aluminum or copper and are available in a wide variety of colors, shapes and widths. They are generally assembled on the job site using specialized equipment. The installation of rain gutters comprised approximately 4%3% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017.

2019.

Window Blinds
Some of our locations install different types of window blinds, including cordless blinds, shades and shutters. The installation of window blinds comprised approximately 3% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Other Building Products

Some of our locations install other complementary building products, none of which is an individually significant percentage of net revenue. Installation of other building products comprised approximately 9%10% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017.

2019.

Sales and Marketing

We seek to attract and retain customers through exceptional customer service, superior installation quality, broad service offerings and competitive pricing. Our strategy is centered on building and maintaining strong customer relationships. We also capitalize on cross-selling opportunities from existing customer relationships and identifying situations where customers may benefit from more than one of our installation service offerings. By executing this strategy, we believe we can continue to generate incremental sales volumes with new and existing customers.

Experienced sales and service professionals are important to our customer growth and increasing our profitability. Retaining and motivating local employees has been an important component of our acquisition and operating strategies. As of December 31, 2017,2019, we employed approximately 550625 sales professionals and our sales

force has spent an average of almost a decadeapproximately nine years with our operations. The local sales staff, which is generally led by the branch manager, is responsible for maintaining relationships with our customers. These local teams work diligently to increase sales by supporting our existing customers with excellent service and value while also pursuing new customers with competitive offerings. In addition to the efforts of our sales staff, we market our product and service offerings on the internet, in the local yellow pages, on the radio and through advertisements in trade journals. We primarily conduct our marketing using local trademarks and trade names.

Quality Control

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
We seek to differentiate ourselves in areas where we believe we have a competitive advantage, including:
National scale with a strong local presence.
Our national scale gives us access to the best products, training and Safety

innovation available, while our local teams provide best in class training and installation services and outstanding customer service. Our customers generally select their building products installer based on quality and timeliness of service, knowledge of local building codes, product application expertise, pricing, relationships and reputation in the market. For these reasons, we emphasize the importance of developing and maintaining strong customer relationships at the local level based on the knowledge and experience of our branch management and staff.

Diversified product lines, end markets and geographies.
Diversifying our product line offerings provides us opportunity to increase sales to end customers and leverage our branch costs to improve profitability. We continue to generate revenue synergies by taking advantage of cross-selling opportunities with our existing customers in markets where we install multiple products. We have successfully diversified our product offering from the year ended December 31, 2013, when insulation installation comprised approximately 74% of revenues, to the year ended December 31, 2019, where it comprised 64% of revenues. We service the residential new construction and repair and remodel markets, both of which consist of single-family and multi-family dwellings, as well as the commercial construction market. We have diversified our end customer demographic from the year ended December 31, 2013, when revenue from the commercial end market comprised approximately 11% of revenues, to the year ended December 31, 2019 where it comprised 18% of revenues. Our growing exposure to commercial end markets diversifies our customer base and makes our business less dependent on residential new construction. Commercial construction is also driven by longer term projects which tends to provide greater revenue visibility. In periods of declining insulation installation volumes, our sales force is able to leverage our diversity of products and reduce the impact of lost insulation sales by growing sales of complementary building products, further enhancing our ability to perform. Our national geographic footprint provides us a balanced business not concentrated in any single region.
Engaged employees.
We offer competitive benefits to our employees to ensure an engaged workforce. In addition to offering certain benefits to most employees, including medical insurance, 401k and paid time off benefits, we also offer longevity stock awards, financial wellness training and savings matching in order to recruit and retain employees. Our retention efforts have reduced our employee turnover by approximately 40% since the beginning of 2017 to a level significantly below industry averages. Opportunity for professional growth, training and advancement are strongly encouraged. Engaged, long-tenured employees benefit our business by being highly skilled and efficient, which drives profitability and encourages repeat business and customer loyalty. Higher employee retention also benefits our business through lower recruitment and training expense. We also consider risk management and safety to be a core business objective. Significant staffing, funding and other resources are allocated to our management systems that enhances quality and safety for our employees and our customers. Our branch managers are held accountable for the safety of employees and quality of workmanship at their locations. We provide our employees with ongoing training and development programs necessary to improve work quality and safety performance. Our regional managers, local branch managers and sales force have significant experience in the industry and have spent an average of more than 10 years with our operations. We also created the Installed Building Products Foundation in 2019 as a separate,
not-for-profit
organization to help support our employees for their education, financial and philanthropic needs.
Financial strength,
variable cost structure and strong free cash flow.
We believe that we are among the most financially sound companies in our industry. We place an emphasis on having a strong balance sheet which
4

Table of Contents
allows us to focus on our strategic initiatives and pursue growth opportunities, drive profitability and generate cash. We have a highly variable cost structure with a significant portion of operating expenses directly linked to volume. Our largest expenses are materials and labor and most of our installation employees are paid by completed job. Our minimal capital expenditure requirements support the generation of strong free cash flow.
Execution excellence.
We believe that our ability to consistently complete our installations within a customer’s production schedule is recognized by our customers and is a key component of our high level of service. We have a proven track record of customer satisfaction in managing all aspects of the installation process for our customers. Throughout the construction process, our branch sales and supervisory staff and installation teams make frequent site visits to ensure timely and proper installation and to provide general service support. We believe a high level of service is valued by our customers and generates customer loyalty.
Broad and stable customer base.
We benefit from a diverse customer base that includes production and custom homebuilders, multi-family and commercial construction firms, homeowners and residential repair and remodeling contractors. We continue to enhance our longstanding relationships with some of the largest builders in the country. While we serve many national and regional builders across multiple markets, we compete for business at the local level. Given our emphasis on quality service, customer turnover is extremely low.
Well established relationships with suppliers.
We have strong long-standing relationships with many of the manufacturers of the materials we install, including the largest manufacturers of fiberglass and spray foam. The fiberglass insulation manufacturing market is highly consolidated and primarily served by four major manufacturers. We buy significant volume from all four manufacturers and have relationships with each company spanning more than two decades. Our national scale allows us to purchase volumes that account for a meaningful portion of the production for these suppliers allowing them to better plan their production schedules. Our relationships and purchasing power often allow us to negotiate preferred material supply terms.
Highly experienced and incentivized management team.
Our senior management team (Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer) have been directing our strategy for close to 20 years. This team has led us through multiple housing industry cycles, providing valuable continuity and a demonstrated ability to improve operations and grow our business both organically and through acquisitions.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
We believe our geographic footprint, longstanding relationships with national insulation manufacturers, streamlined value chain and proven track record of successful acquisitions provides us with opportunities for continued growth in our existing markets and expansion into new markets. We believe our continued emphasis on expanding our product offering, further expansion into the commercial construction market, and targeting geographies where we look to grow market share will reduce potential future cyclicality of our operations. Our current strategic objectives include:
capitalize on the new residential and commercial construction markets;
continue to strengthen our market share position by working with the best customers. We seek to work with the most profitable and efficient builders and commercial general contractors in our markets;
recruit, develop and retain an exceptional workforce by investing in our employees and our communities and promoting a family-oriented culture;
capitalize on our ability to cross-sell products through existing markets as well as new markets entered as a result of organic expansion and acquisitions. In addition to insulation and air infiltration products, we install garage doors, rain gutters, mirrors and shower doors, waterproofing, window blinds and various other products;
enhance profitability from our operating leverage and national scale;
continue organic expansion in the multibillion-dollar commercial end market. Our commercial strategy includes adding more locations to serve the large commercial market and increasing commercial sales at our existing new residential locations;
5

Table of Contents
pursue value enhancing acquisitions by continuing our disciplined approach to valuations and pricing. We will continue to be selective in identifying acquisition targets at attractive multiples. We target profitable markets and companies with strong reputations and customer bases. As part of our acquisition strategy, we seek to maintain the management teams of the companies we acquire as well as retain their local branding, which further reduces associated risk. We are very experienced in acquiring and integrating companies and have an experienced team that integrates acquisitions quickly and efficiently; and
we integrate new acquisitions quickly and seamlessly into our corporate infrastructure, including our accounting and employee systems. In addition, we utilize our internal software technology, jobCORE, to integrate acquired operations and provide
in-depth
branch-level operational and financial performance data. We realize near term margin enhancement and revenue growth at acquired branches by applying our national buying power and leveraging relationships with large national homebuilders.
One of our key areas of focus has been diversifying our product and service offerings, customer base, and end markets. We have accomplished this through organic growth as well as acquisitions. We believe the benefits of this diversification include:
Margin enhancement by leveraging branch costs across multiple products
Diversified
end-market
exposure
A more diverse customer base
Stronger established local relationships
Reduced cyclicality
We have historically experienced expanded product diversification in our branches in periods of declining insulation installation volumes as our sales force looks to maintain volume and replace lost insulation sales with sales of complementary building products. Our oldest and most established branches tend to exhibit the greatest diversity of service and product offerings. This diversity in turn contributes to enhanced profitability as compared to branches in our newer, less developed markets.
However, we can provide no assurance that the positive trends reflected in our recent financial and operating results will continue in 2020.
QUALITY CONTROL AND SAFETY
Our quality control process starts with the initial proposal. Our sales staff and managers are knowledgeable about our service offerings and scope of work. They are trained on manufacturers’ guidelines as well as state and local building codes. Our quality control programs emphasize onsite inspections, training by manufacturers and various certification programs.

We consider risk management and safety to be a core business objective. SignificantEach year, we allocate significant staffing, funding and other resources are allocated to our management systems that enhance quality anddirectly impact safety. We have strong workplace safety measures, including Safety Wanted 365, an initiative focused on creating a safer working environment for both our employees and other jobsite personnel through year-round education and training. Additionally, our customers. Our branch managers are held accountable for the safety of employees and quality of workmanship at their locations. We provide our employees with ongoing training and development programs necessary to improve work quality and safety performance.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

We believe our geographic footprint, long-standing relationships with national insulation manufacturers, streamlined value chain structure and proven track record of successful acquisitions provides us with opportunities for continued growth in our existing markets and expansion into new markets. We believe we are

well positioned to further improve our profitability and results in 2018 and we will continue to emphasize the following strategic business objectives in 2018:

capitalize on the new residential and commercial construction markets;
CUSTOMERS

capitalize on our ability to cross-sell products through existing markets as well as new markets entered as a result of acquisitions;

continue to strengthen our market share position by working with the best customers;

pursue value enhancing acquisitions by being disciplined in our approach to valuations and pricing;

However, we can provide no assurance that the positive trends reflected in our recent financial and operating results will continue in 2018.

CUSTOMERS

We serve a broad group of national, regional and local homebuilders, multi-family and commercial construction firms, individual homeowners and repair and remodeling contractors. Our top ten customers, which are primarily

We install a variety of products in multiple markets for our largest customers, further diversifying our relationship with them. For example, our largest customer accounted for more than 3.5%is independently serviced by 67 different IBP branches nationwide despite representing approximately 4% of net revenue duringfor the year ended December 31, 2017.

BACKLOG

Certain2019. While our largest customers are homebuilders, our customer base is also diverse. We work on a range of commercial projects including office buildings, airports, sports complexes, museums, hospitals, hotels and educational facilities. 16 of our top 20 customers represent homebuilders and the remaining four represent commercial customers. We have long-term relationships with many of our customers and have served each of our top ten customers for more than a decade.

BACKLOG
For contracts that are accounted for undernot complete at the percentage of completion method of accounting.reporting date, we recognize revenue over time utilizing a cost-to-cost input method. When thepercentage-of-completionthis method is used, we estimate the costs to complete individual contracts and record as revenue that portion of the total contract price that is considered complete based on the relationship of costs incurred to date to total anticipated costs. The costs of earned revenue include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools and repairs. Backlog represents expected revenue on uncompleted contracts, including the amount of revenue ontransaction price for contracts for which our work has not yet commenced, less the revenue recognized under these contracts, which we currently estimate to be $80.8 million as of December 31, 2017. However, backlogbeen performed and excludes unexercised contract options and potential modifications. Backlog is not a guarantee of future revenues as contractual commitments may change. There can be no assurance that backlog will result in revenues within the expected timeframe, if at all.

We estimate backlog was $90.7 million as of December 31, 2019 and we estimated it to be $88.0 million as of December 31, 2018.

SUPPLIERS

We have long-term relationships with many of our suppliers and have not experienced any significant disruption in the supply of any of the primary materials we purchase and install. As one of the largest purchasers of fiberglass and spray foam insulation in the United States, we believe that we maintain particularly strong relationships with the largest manufacturers of these insulation products. The proximity of certain of our branch locations to insulation manufacturers’ facilities provides additional mutual benefits, including opportunities for cost savings and joint planning regarding future production. Due to the limited number of large fiberglass insulation manufacturers, our three largest suppliers in the aggregate accounted for approximately 38%37% of all material purchases for the year ended December 31, 2017.2019. We also believe that we maintain good relationships with suppliers of the
non-insulation
products we install. We believe that the pricing, terms and rebates we receive from our suppliers, as well as supply assurance, are favorable. We have found that using multiple suppliers helps to ensureensures a stable source of materials and favorable purchasing terms as suppliers compete to gain and maintain our business. In addition, our national purchasing volumes provide leverage with suppliers as we pursue additional procurement cost savings and purchasing synergies.

SEASONALITY

We tend to have higher sales during the second half of the year as our homebuilder customers complete construction of homes placed under contract for sale in the traditionally stronger spring selling season. In addition, some of our larger branches operate in states impacted by winter weather and, as such, experience a slowdown in construction activity during the first quarter of the calendar year. This winter slowdown contributes to traditionally lower sales and profitability in our first quarter.

The composition and level of our working capital typically change during periods of increasing sales as we carry more inventory and receivables, although these changes are generally offset in part by higher trade payables to our suppliers. Working capital levels increase in the summer and fall seasons due to higher sales during the peak of residential construction activity. Typically, the subsequent collection of receivables and reduction in inventory levels during the winter months has positively impacted cash flow. In the past, we have from time to time utilized our borrowing availability under our credit facilityfacilities to cover short-term working capital needs.

COMPETITION

We believe that competition in our industry is based on quality and timeliness of service, knowledge of local building codes, pricing, relationships and reputation in the market. The building products installation industry is highly fragmented. The markets for our
non-insulation
installation services are even more fragmented than the markets for insulation installation services. Our competitors include twoone other large national contractors,contractor, several large regional contractors and numerous local contractors. We expect to continue to effectively compete in our local markets given our long-standing customer relationships, access to capital, tenure and quality of local staff, quality installation reputation and competitive pricing.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2017,2019, we had approximately 6,9008,500 employees, consisting of approximately 4,9006,050 installers, approximately 550625 sales professionals, approximately 425550 production personnel and approximately 1,0251,275 administrative and management personnel. Approximately 30 of our employees are covered under collective bargaining agreements. We have never experienced a work stoppage or strike, and we believe that we have good relationships with our employees.

We also maintain domain name registrations for each of our local branch websites. We make efforts to protect our intellectual property rights, although the actions we take may be inadequate to prevent others from using similar intellectual property. In addition, third parties may assert claims against our use of intellectual property and we may be unable to successfully resolve such claims.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND REGULATORY MATTERS

The Department of Energy, or DOE, states that over half of the energy used in the average American home is for heating and cooling due to many homes not having proper insulation. Per an insulation fact sheet provided by the DOE, inadequate insulation and air leakage are leading causes of energy waste in most homes. Through insulating homes and commercial structures, our industry promotes energy efficiency. Our loose-fill cellulose insulation is manufactured from recycled waste paper and our fiberglass insulation is made from recycled glass which helps reuse resources and reduce our global footprint.
We are committed to socially responsible corporate practices. Through the Installed Building Products Foundation and other volunteer opportunities, we give back to the communities we serve. We also provide longevity stock awards and financial wellness training to our employees.

Risk Factors

There are a number of business risks and uncertainties that affect our business. These risks and uncertainties could cause our actual results to differ from past performance or expected results. We consider the following risks and uncertainties to be most relevant to our business activities. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently believe to be immaterial, may also adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. We urge investors to consider carefully the risk factors described below in evaluating the information contained in this report.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Our business and the industry in which we operate are highly dependent on general and local economic conditions, the housing market, the level of new residential and commercial construction activity and other important factors, all of which are beyond our control.

Unfavorable changes in any of the above conditions could adversely affect consumer spending, result in decreased demand for homes and adversely affect our business generally or be more prevalent or concentrated in particular markets in which we operate. Any deterioration in economic or housing market conditions or continuation of uncertain economic or housing market conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

The

A downturn in the housing market has faced significant challengescould materially and adversely affect our business and financial results.
In 2019, the U.S. Census Bureau reported an estimated 1.29 million total housing starts. This is an increase from 1.25 million starts in the past which could return and/or intensify.

The homebuilding industry is2018, but still recovering from a significant downturn that began inmid-2006 and began to stabilize in late 2011. The housing market has steadily strengthened since then. In 2017, U.S. homebuilding activity increased to approximately 849 thousand single-family starts although it remains well below the historical average (from 1959 through 2017)over the past 60 years. There is significant uncertainty regarding the timing and extent of approximately 1.0 millionany further recovery in new home construction and resulting product demand levels, and any decline may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In particular, increases in mortgage interest rates and rising home prices, along with other economic factors, may slow the recovery of the home construction market or lead to 1.1 million single-family starts per year. Accordinga decline. In addition, concerns over the affordability of housing may reduce demand in the markets we serve. Some analysts also project that the demand for residential construction may be negatively impacted as the number of renting households has increased in recent years and a shortage in the supply of affordable housing is expected to result in lower home ownership rates.

Other factors that might impact growth in the homebuilding industry include: uncertainty in financial, credit and consumer lending markets amid slow growth or recessionary conditions; levels of mortgage repayment; limited credit availability; federal and state personal income tax rates and changes to the U.S. Census Bureau, actual U.S. single family housing starts in the U.S. during 2017 were 81% lower than in 2007. The factors that may be contributing to a slow recovery may include: a severe economic recession, followed by a gradual economic recovery; limited credit availability;deductibility of certain state and local taxes; Federal Reserve policy changes; shortages of suitable building lots in many regions; shortages of experienced labor; rising home prices in many markets resulting in affordability issues for potential buyers; and soft housing demand in certain markets.markets; and rising materials prices. Given these factors, we can provide no assurance that present growth trends will continue, whether overall or in our markets, or whether the new single-family residential market will ever return to historical levels. The economic downturn in the homebuilding industry resulted in a substantial2007-2010 severely affected our business. Another reduction in housing demand for our products and services. These challenges could return and/or intensify and limit any future improvement in the levels and mixfuture could have a similar effect on our business.

Contents

Our business relies on commercial construction activity, which has faced significant challenges and is dependent on business investment.

A portion of the products we sell are for the commercial construction market. Challenging economic conditions in recent years have adversely affected demand for commercial construction projects. Although demand is now improving, current market estimates indicate that commercial construction activity remains uneven and below historical average levels. If the present recoverygrowth in this market does not continue or gain further momentum, the growth potential of our business, and our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

According to Dodge Data & Analytics, commercial construction put in place began to recover in 2013. However, commercial building starts in 2020, measured by investment dollars, are expected to decrease 6% from 2019 while institutional building starts (a subset of the nonresidential construction market in which we participate) are expected to be flat.
The strength of the commercial construction market depends on business investment which is a function of many national, regional and local economic conditions beyond our control, including capital and credit availability for commercial construction projects, material costs, interest rates, employment rates, vacancy rates, labor and healthcare costs, fuel and other energy costs and changes in tax laws affecting the real estate industry. Adverse changes or continued uncertainty regarding these and other economic conditions could result in a decline or postponement in spending on commercial construction projects, which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The downturn from 2008 to 2011 in the U.S. commercial new construction market was one of the most severe of the last 40 years. Previously, downturns in the construction industry have typically lasted about two to three years, but the downturn from 2008 to 2011 was much more significant, with a market decline of approximately 49% during those three years. We cannot predict the duration of the current market conditions or the timing or strength of any future recoverygrowth of commercial construction activity in our markets. Weakness in the commercial construction market would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. Continued uncertainty about current economic conditions will continue to pose a risk to our businesses that serve the

non-residential
markets. If participants in these industries postpone spending in response to tighter credit, negative financial news and declines in income or asset values or other factors, this could have a material negative effect on the demand for our products and services and on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

A decline in the economy and/or a deterioration in expectations regarding the housing market or the commercial construction market could cause us to record significant
non-cash
impairment charges, which could negatively affect our earnings and reduce stockholders’ equity.

Annually,

We review our goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment annually during the fourth quarter and when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. In doing so, we either assess qualitative factors or perform a detailed analysis to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. We did not record any goodwill impairment charges in 2017, 2016,2019, 2018, or 2015;2017; however, a decline in the expectation of our future performance, or a decline in our market capitalization, or deterioration in expectations regarding the general economy and/or the timing and the extent of new home construction and home improvement and commercial construction activity may cause us to recognize
non-cash,
pre-tax
impairment charges for goodwill or other long-lived assets, which are not determinable at this time. In addition, as a result of our acquisition strategy, we have recorded goodwill and may incur impairment charges in connection with prior and future acquisitions. If the value of goodwill or other intangible assets is impaired, our earnings and stockholders’ equity would be adversely affected.

As of December 31, 2017,2019, we had goodwill and other intangible assets in an aggregate amount of $293.5$349.2 million, or approximately 40%32% of our total assets. Current year acquisitions, including the acquisition of Alphaassets, which is in January 2017, have resulted in a significant increase in our goodwill and other intangible assets. We review our goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment annually during the fourth quarter and when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. A significant decrease in our estimates for income and cash flows or a decline in our market capitalization could result in an impairmentexcess of our goodwill and/or other intangible assets. Given the significant increase in the amount of our goodwill and other intangible assets after completion of the Alpha acquisition, any future impairment of these assets could require us to record material charges that would negatively impact our earnings and reduce stockholders’ equity.

Our business is seasonal and may be affected by severeadverse weather conditions, and is seasonal.

Severe weather conditions, such as unusually prolonged cold conditions, rain, blizzardsnatural disasters or hurricanes, could accelerate, delay or halt construction or installation activity. The impact of these types of events on our business may adversely impact quarterly or annual net revenue, cash flows from operations and results of operations.

other catastrophic events.

We tend to have higher sales during the second half of the year as our homebuilder customers complete construction of homes placed under contract for sale in the traditionally stronger spring selling season. In addition, some of our larger branches operate in states impacted by winter weather and, as such, experience a slowdown in construction activity during inclement months. This winter slowdown contributes to traditionally lower sales and profitability in our first quarter.

Table of Contents
In addition, adverse weather conditions, such as unusually prolonged cold conditions, rain, blizzards, hurricanes, earthquakes, fires, other natural disasters, epidemics (such as the coronavirus currently impacting China and other countries) or other catastrophic events could accelerate, delay or halt construction or installation activity or impact our suppliers. The impact of these types of events on our business may adversely impact quarterly or annual net revenue, cash flows from operations and results of operations.
Our industry is highly fragmented and competitive, and increased competitive pressure may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The building products installation industry is highly fragmented and competitive. We face significant competition from other national, regional and local companies. Any of these competitors may: (i) foresee the

course of market development more accurately than we do; (ii) offer services that are deemed superior to ours; (iii) install building products at a lower cost; (iv) develop stronger relationships with homebuilders and suppliers; (v) adapt more quickly to new technologies, new installation techniques or evolving customer requirements; or (vi) have access to financing on more favorable terms than we can obtain in the market. As a result, we may not be able to compete successfully with them. If we are unable to compete effectively, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected.

In the event that increased demand leads to higher prices for the products we install, we may have limited, if any, ability to pass on price increases in a timely manner or at all due to the fragmented and competitive nature of our industry.

Residential homebuilders have, in the past, placed pressure on their suppliers to keep prices low, also contributing to the possibility of not being able to pass on price increases.

Product shortages or the loss of key suppliers could affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our ability to offer a wide variety of products to our customers depends on our ability to obtain adequate product supply from manufacturers. We do not typically enter into long-term agreements with our suppliers but have done so from time to time.time, including in 2018 when we entered into a contract to provide a portion of the insulation materials we utilize across our businesses during 2019, 2020 and 2021. We have certain agreements that do not qualify as supply agreements due to a lack of a fixed price and/or lack of a fixed and determinable purchase quantity, but nonetheless may require us to purchase certain of our products from certain vendors, depending on the specific circumstances. Generally, our products are available from various sources and in sufficient quantities to meet our operating needs. However, the loss of, or a substantial decrease in the availability of, products from our suppliers or the loss of key supplier arrangements could adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Historically, unexpected events, such as incapacitation of supplier facilities due to extreme weather or fire, have temporarily reduced manufacturing capacity and production. In addition, during prior economic downturns in the housing industry, manufacturers have reduced capacity by closing plants and production lines within plants. Even if such capacity reductions are not permanent, there may be a delay in manufacturers’ ability to increase capacity in times of rising demand. If the demand for products from manufacturers and other suppliers exceeds the available supply, we may be unable to source additional products in sufficient quantity or quality in a timely manner and the prices for the products that we install could rise. These developments could affect our ability to take advantage of market opportunities and limit our growth prospects. We continually evaluate our supplier relationships and at any given time may move some or all of our purchases from one or more of our suppliers. There can be no assurance that any such action would have its intended effect.

Failure by our suppliers to continue to provide us with products on commercially favorable terms, or at all, could have a material adverse effect on our operating margins, financial condition, operating results and/or cash flows. Our inability to source materials in a timely manner could also damage our relationships with our customers.

Changes in the costs of the products we install, an inability to increase our selling prices or a delay in the timing of such increases can decrease our profit margins.

margins

The principal building products that we install have been subject to price changes in the past, some of which have been significant. OurFor example, the industry supply of a portion of the insulation materials we install was disrupted due to a catastrophic failure at a manufacturer’s facility during the fourth quarter of 2017, resulting in insulation material allocation throughout the industry and, as a result, increased market pricing which impacted our results of operations in 2018 and 2019. Increased market pricing, regardless of the catalyst, could impact our results of operations in the future to the extent that price increases cannot be passed on to our customers. While we continue to work with our customers to adjust selling prices to offset the aforementioned higher costs, there can be no assurance that any such action would have its intended effect. In addition, our results of operations for individual quarterly periods can be, and have been, adversely affected by a delay between when building product cost increases are implemented and when we are able to increase prices for our products and services, if at all. Our supplier purchase prices often depend on volume requirements. If we do not meet these volume requirements, our costs could increase and our margins may be adversely affected. In addition, while we have been able to achieve cost savings through volume purchasing and our relationships with suppliers, we may not be able to continue to receive advantageous pricing for the products that we install, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We may not be able to continue to successfully expand into new products or geographic markets and further diversify our business, which could negatively impact our future sales and results of operations.
Generally, we seek to acquire businesses that will complement, enhance, or expand our current business or product offerings, or that might otherwise offer us growth opportunities, including the expansion of our national footprint and end markets. Our business depends in part on our ability to diversify and grow our business and expand the types of complementary building products that we install. Our product and geographic expansion may not be successful and may not deliver expected results, which could negatively impact our future sales and results of operations.
Our expansion into new geographic markets may present competitive, local market and other challenges that differ from current ones. We may be less familiar with the target customers and may face different or additional risks, as well as increased or unexpected costs, compared to existing operations. Expansion into new geographic markets may also bring us into direct competition with companies with whom we have little or no past experience as competitors. To the extent we rely upon expansion into new geographic markets for growth and do not meet the new challenges posed by such expansion, our future sales growth could be negatively impacted, our operating costs could increase, and our business operations and financial results could be adversely affected.
We may be unable to successfully acquire and integrate other businesses and realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions.

Acquisitions are a core part of our strategy and we may be unable to continue to grow our business through acquisitions. We may not be able to continue to identify suitable acquisition candidates and may face increased

competition for these acquisition candidates. In addition, acquired businesses may not perform in accordance with expectations, and our business judgments concerning the value, strengths and weaknesses of acquired businesses may not prove to be correct. We may also be unable to achieve expected improvements or achievements in businesses that we acquire. At any given time, including currently, we may be evaluating or in discussions with one or more acquisition candidates, including entering into

non-binding
letters of intent. The value of our common stock following the completion of an acquisition could be adversely affected if we are unable to realize the expected benefits from the acquisition on a timely basis or at all. Future acquisitions may result in the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities, legal liabilities, goodwill impairments, increased interest expense and amortization expense and significant integration costs. In addition, future acquisitions could result in dilution of existing stockholders if we issue shares of common stock as consideration.

Table of Contents
Acquisitions involve a number of special risks, including:

our inability to manage acquired businesses or control integration costs and other costs relating to acquisitions;

potential adverse short-term effects on operating results from increased costs, business disruption or otherwise;

diversion of management’s attention;

loss of suppliers, customers or other significant business partners of the acquired business;

failure to retain existing key personnel of the acquired business and recruit qualified new employees at the location;

failure to successfully implement infrastructure, logistics and systems integration;

potential impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets;

risks associated with the internal controls of acquired businesses;

exposure to legal claims for activities of the acquired business prior to acquisition and inability to realize on any indemnification claims, including with respect to environmental and immigration claims;

the risks inherent in the systems of the acquired business and risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities; and

our inability to obtain financing necessary to complete acquisitions on attractive terms or at all.

Our strategy could be impeded if we do not identify, or face increased competition for, suitable acquisition candidates and our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected if any of the foregoing factors were to occur.

We may be unable to continue to realize the expected benefits of our acquisition of Alpha.

On January 5, 2017, we closed the acquisition of Alpha, our largest acquisition to date. Our expectations regarding the benefits of the Alpha acquisition were necessarily based on estimates and assumptions about the combined businesses, which may not materialize as we expect or which may prove to be inaccurate. The value of our common stock and results of our operations could be adversely affected if we are unable to realize the expected benefits from the acquisition within the expected timeframe or at all. As we continue to work to integrate Alpha into our business, we may face unexpected operational, strategic, financial or administrative challenges, including, without limitation:

failure to successfully manage our increased business in the commercial construction end market;

difficulties incorporating Alpha into our existing internal control over financial reporting due to material weaknesses and significant deficiencies identified in Alpha’s internal control over financial reporting;

discovery of material misstatements in the historical financial statements of Alpha resulting from material weaknesses and/or significant deficiencies in its internal control over financial reporting;

loss of employees, suppliers, customers or other significant business partners of Alpha as well as business disruption; and

an increase in our financing costs as a result of the indebtedness that we incurred in connection with the acquisition.

Our continued expansion into the commercial construction end market following our acquisition of Alpha could affect our revenue, margins, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.

Following the completion of the Alpha acquisition, our revenues derived from the commercial construction end market have significantly increased on an absolute basis and as a percentage of our total revenues. While we expect such growth to continue as we expand our

For example, the typical contractual terms and arrangements and billing cycle for the commercial construction end market are different than the residential new construction end market. In addition, our expansion may include opening new branches that have higher

The amount

As of December 31, 2019, our estimated backlog was approximately $90.7 million. In accordance with industry practice, many of our goodwillcontracts are subject to cancellation, reduction, termination or suspension at the discretion of the customer in respect of work that has not yet been performed.

Projects can remain in backlog for extended periods of time because of the nature of the project, delays in execution of the project and the timing of the particular services required by the project.

We may be subject to claims arising from the operations of our various businesses for periods prior to the dates we acquired them.

We have consummated over 125150 acquisitions. We may beFrom time to time we are subject to claims or liabilities arising from the ownership or operation of acquired businesses for the periods prior to our acquisition of them, including environmental, employee-related and other liabilities and claims not covered by insurance. TheseAny future claims or liabilities could be significant. Our ability to seek indemnification from the former owners of our acquired businesses for these claims or liabilities may be limited by various factors, including the specific time, monetary or other limitations contained in the respective acquisition agreements and the financial ability of the former owners to satisfy our indemnification claims. In addition, insurance companies may be unwilling to cover claims that have arisen from acquired businesses or locations, or claims may exceed the coverage limits that our acquired businesses had in effect prior to the date of acquisition. If we are unable to successfully obtain insurance coverage of third-party claims or enforce our indemnification rights against the former owners, or if the former owners are unable to satisfy their obligations for any reason, including because of their financial position, we could be held liable for the costs or obligations associated with such claims or liabilities, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our success depends on our key personnel.

Our business results depend largely upon the continued contributions of our Chief Executive Officer and other members of oursenior management team. We do not have employment agreements with any of our executive officers other than Jeff Edwards, our Chief Executive Officer and President. Although Mr. Edwards’ employment agreement requires him to devote the amount of time necessary to conduct our business and affairs, he is also permitted to engage in other business activities that do not create a conflict of interest or substantially interfere with his service to us, including
non-competitive
operational activities for his real estate development business. If we lose members of our management team, our business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as the market price of our securities, could be adversely affected.

Our business results also depend upon our branch managers and sales personnel, including those of companies recently acquired. While we customarily sign

non-competition
agreements, which typically continue for two years following the termination of employment, with our branch managers and sales personnel in order to maintain key customer relationships in our markets, such agreements do not protect us fully against competition from former employees.

We are dependent on attracting, training and retaining qualified employees while controlling labor costs.

The labor market for the construction industry is tight andcompetitive, including within the sector in which we have recently experienced higher employee-related costs.operate. We must attract, train and retain a large number of qualified employees to install our products while controlling related labor costs. We compete with other businessesface significant competition for these employees.employees from our industry as well as from other industries. Tighter labor markets may make it even more difficult for us to hire and retain installers and control labor costs. Our ability to attract qualified employees and control labor costs is subject to numerous external factors, including competitive wage rates and health and other insurance and benefit costs. A significant increase in competition, minimum wage or overtime rates in localities where we have employees could have a significant impact on our operating costs and may require that we take steps to mitigate such increases, all of which may cause us to incur additional costs, expend resources responding to such increases and lower our margins.

Higher labor and health care costs and labor costs could adversely affect our business.

We carry insurance for risks including, but not limited to, meetworkers’ compensation, general liability, vehicle liability, property and our obligation for employee-related health care benefits. In most cases, these risks are insured under high deductible and/or high-retention programs that require us to carry highly subjective liability reserves on our balance sheet. We estimate these insurance liabilities by considering historical claims experience, including frequency, severity, demographic factors and other actuarial assumptions, and periodically analyzing our historical trends with the assistance of external actuarial consultants. Our accruals for insurance reserves reflect these estimates and other management judgments, which are subject to variability. If our claim experience differs significantly from historical trends and actuarial assumptions and we then need to increase our reserves, our financial targets.

condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Changes in employment laws may adversely affect our business.

Various federal and state labor laws govern the relationship with our employees and impact operating costs. These laws include:

employee classification as exempt or
non-exempt
for overtime and other purposes;

workers’ compensation rates;

immigration status;

mandatory health benefits;

tax reporting; and

other wage and benefit requirements.

We have a significant exposure to changes in laws governing our relationships with our employees, including wage and hour laws and regulations, fair labor standards, minimum wage requirements, overtime pay, unemployment tax rates, workers’ compensation rates, citizenship requirements and payroll taxes, which likely would have a direct impact on our operating costs. Significant additional government-imposed increases in the preceding areas could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, various

Our business could be adversely affected by changes in immigration laws or failure to properly verify the employment eligibility of our employees.
Some states in which we operate are considering or have already adopted new immigration laws or enforcement programs, and the U.S. Congress and Department of Homeland Securityfederal government from time to time consider

considers and implementimplements changes to federal immigration laws, regulations or enforcement programs. These changes may increase our compliance and oversight obligations, which could subject us to additional costs and make our hiring process more cumbersome, or reduce the availability of potential employees. Although we verify the employment eligibility status of all our employees, including through participation in the

“E-Verify”
program where required,in the states that require it, some of our employees may, without our knowledge, be unauthorized workers. UseIn addition, use of the
“E-Verify”
program does not guarantee that we will properly identify all applicants who are ineligible for employment. Unauthorized workers are subject to deportation and may subject us to fines or penalties and, if any of our workers are found to be unauthorized, we could experience adverse publicity that negatively impacts our brand and may make it more difficult to hire and retain qualified employees. Termination of a significant number of employees who were unauthorized employeesdue to work authorization or other regulatory issues may disrupt our operations, cause temporary increases in our labor costs as we train new employees and result in additional adverse publicity. We could also become subject to fines, penalties and other costs related to claims that we did not fully comply with all recordkeeping obligations of federal and state immigration laws. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, immigration laws have been an area of considerable political focus in recent years, and the U.S. Congress, Department of Homeland Security and the Executive Branch of the U.S. government from time to time consider or implement changes to federal immigration laws, regulations or enforcement programs. Changes in immigration or work authorization laws may increase our obligations for compliance and oversight, which could subject us to additional costs and potential liability and make our hiring process more cumbersome, or reduce the availability of potential employees. We are subject to regulations of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, and Department of Labor, and we are audited from time to time by these parties for compliance with work authentication requirements. While we believe we are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, if we are found not to be in compliance as a result of any audits, we may be subject to fines or other remedial actions.
Our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely affected if pending or future legal claims against us are not resolved in our favor.

We are subject to various claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business, including wage and hour lawsuits. The ultimate resolution of these matters is subject to inherent uncertainties. It is possible that the costs to resolve these matters could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows for the periods in which the matters are resolved. Similarly, if additional claims are filed against us in the future, the negative outcome of one or more of such matters could have a material adverse effect on our results, financial condition and cash flows.

The nature of our business exposes us to product liability, workmanship warranty, casualty, negligence, construction defect, breach of contract and other claims and legal proceedings.

We are subject to product liability, workmanship warranty, casualty, negligence, construction defect, breach of contract and other claims and legal proceedings relating to the products we install or manufacture that, if adversely determined, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We rely on manufacturers and other suppliers to provide us with most of the products we install. BecauseOther than for our recently acquired manufacturer of cellulose insulation, we do not have direct control over the quality of such products manufactured or supplied by such third-party suppliers,suppliers. As such, we are exposed to risks relating to the quality of such products.
In addition, we are exposed to potential claims arising from the conduct of our employees, homebuilders and other subcontractors, for which we may be contractually liable.

We have in the past been, and may in the future be, subject to fines, penalties and other liabilities in connection with injury or damage incurred in conjunction with the installation of our products. The nature and extent to which we use hazardous or flammable materials in our manufacturing processes creates risk of damage to persons and property that, if realized, could be material. Although we currently maintain what we believe to be suitable and adequate insurance, we may be unable to maintain such insurance on acceptable terms or such insurance may not provide adequate protection against potential liabilities.

In addition, some liabilities may not be covered by our insurance.

Product liability, workmanship warranty, casualty, negligence, construction defect, breach of contract and other claims and legal proceedings can be expensive to defend and can divert the attention of management and other personnel for significant periods of time, regardless of the ultimate outcome. In addition, lawsuits relating to construction defects typically have statutes of limitations that can run as long as ten years. Claims of this nature could also have a negative impact on customer confidence in us and our services. Current or future claims could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

In the ordinary course of business, we are required to obtain performance bonds and licensing bonds, the unavailability of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or cash flows.

We are often required to obtain performance bonds and licensing bonds to secure our performance under certain contracts and other arrangements. In addition, the commercial construction end market also requires higher levels of performance bonding.

Our ability to obtain performance bonds and licensing bonds primarily depends on our credit rating, capitalization, working capital, past performance, management expertise and certain external factors, including the overall capacity of the surety market and the underwriting practices of surety bond issuers. The ability to obtain performance bonds and licensing bonds can also be impacted by the willingness of insurance companies to issue performance bonds and licensing bonds. If we are unable to obtain performance bonds and licensing bonds when required, our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or cash flows could be adversely impacted.

Federal, state, local and other laws and regulations could impose substantial costs and/or restrictions on our operations that would reduceand could adversely affect our net income.

business.

We are subject to various federal, state, local and other laws and regulations, including, among other things, worker and workplace health and safety regulations promulgated by the U.S. Department of Transportation, or DOT,OSHA, employment regulations promulgated by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and tax regulations promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service and various other state and local tax authorities. MoreOur primary manufacturing facility is also subject to additional laws and regulations which may increase our exposure to health and safety liabilities. In addition, we are subject to increased regulation of data privacy and information security, including the adoption of more stringent state laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act which went into effect in January 2020. These types of data privacy and security laws, which continue to evolve, create a range of new compliance obligations for us and increase financial penalties for
non-compliance.
Additional or more burdensome regulatory requirements in these or other areas may increase our expenses, andreduce demand for our services or restrict our ability to offer services in certain geographies, all of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Moreover, our failure to comply with any of the regulatory requirements applicable to our business could subject us to substantial fines and penalties that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our transportation operations, which we depend on to transport materials from our locations to job sites, are subject to the regulatory jurisdiction of the DOT. The DOT has broad administrative powers with respect to our transportation operations. More restrictive limitations on vehicle weight and size, trailer length and configuration or driver hours of service would increase our costs, which may increase our expenses and adversely affect our financial condition, operating results and/or cash flows. If we fail to comply with DOT regulations or the regulations become more stringent, we could experience increased inspections, regulatory authorities could take remedial action, including imposing fines or shutting down our operations, and we could be subject to increased audit and compliance costs. We organize our transportation operations as a separate legal entity in certain states, including Ohio and Indiana, to take advantage of sales tax exemptions relating to vehicle operating costs. If legislation is enacted that modifies or eliminates these exemptions, our costs may increase. If any of these events were to occur, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected.

In addition, the residential construction and commercial construction industries are subject to various federal, state and local statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations concerning zoning, building design and safety, construction, contractors’ licensing, energy conservation and similar matters, including regulations that impose restrictive zoning and density requirements on the residential new construction industry or that limit the number of homes that can be built within the boundaries of a particular area. Regulatory restrictions and industry standards may require us to alter our installation processes and our sourcing, increase our operating expenses and limit the availability of suitable building lots for our customers, any of which could negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to environmental regulation and potential exposure to environmental liabilities.

We are subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. Although we believe that we operate our business, including each of our locations, in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and

maintain all material permits required under such laws and regulations to operate our business, we may be held liable or incur fines or penalties in connection with such requirements. CertainIn addition, environmental laws and regulations, including those related to energy use and climate change, may become more stringent over time, and any future laws and regulations could have a material impact on our operations or require us to incur material additional expenses to comply with any such future laws and regulations.

Our primary manufacturing facility is also subject to additional laws and regulations which may increase our exposure to environmental liabilities. Despite providing a benefit to the environment by making structures more energy efficient, certain types of insulation, particularly spray foam applications, require our employees to handle potentially hazardous or toxic substances. While our employees who handle these and other potentially hazardous or toxic materials, including lead-based paint, receive specialized training and wear protective clothing, there is still a risk that they, or others, may be exposed to these substances. Exposure to these substances could result in significant injury to our employees and others, including site occupants, and damage to our property or the property of others, including natural resource damage. Our personnel and others at our work sites are also at risk for other workplace-related injuries, including slips and falls.
In addition, as owners and lessees of real property, we may be held liable for, among other things, hazardous or toxic substances, including asbestos or petroleum products on, at, under or emanating from currently or formerly owned or operated properties, or any
off-site
disposal locations, or for any known or newly discovered environmental conditions at or relating to any of our properties, including those arising from activities conducted by previous occupants or at adjoining properties, without regard to whether we knew of or were responsible for such release. We may be required to investigate, remove, remediate or monitor the presence or release of such hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products. We may also be held liable for fines, penalties or damages, including for bodily injury, property damage and natural resource damage in connection with the presence or release of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products. In addition, expenditures may be required in the future as a result of releases of, or exposure to, hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products, the discovery of currently unknown environmental conditions or changes in environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation or enforcement and, in certain instances, such expenditures may be material.

Increases in union organizing activity and work stoppages could delay or reduce availability of products that we install and increase our costs.

Less than one percent of our employees are currently covered by collective bargaining or other similar labor agreements. However, if a larger number of our employees were to unionize, including in the wake of any future legislation that makes it easier for employees to unionize, or if we acquire an entity with unionized workforce in the future, our business could be negatively affected. Any inability by us to negotiate collective bargaining arrangements could cause strikes or other work stoppages, and new contracts could result in increased operating costs. If any such strikes or other work stoppages occur, or if other employees become represented by a union, we could experience a disruption of our operations and higher labor costs.

In addition, certain of our suppliers have unionized work forces and certain of our products are transported by unionized truckers. Strikes or work stoppages could result in slowdowns or closures of facilities where the products that we install are manufactured or could affect the ability of our suppliers to deliver such products to us. Any interruption in the production or delivery of these products could delay or reduce availability of these products and increase our costs.

Increases in fuel costs could adversely affect our results of operations.

The price of oil has fluctuated over the last few years, creating volatility in our fuel costs. We do not currently hedge our fuel costs. Increases in fuel costs can negatively impact our cost to deliver our products to our customers and thus increase our cost of sales. If we are unable to increase the selling price of our products to our customers to cover any increases in fuel costs, net income may be adversely affected.

We may be adversely affected by disruptions in our information technology systems.

Our operations are dependent upon our information technology systems, including our
web-enabled
internal software technology, jobCORE. The jobCORE software provides
in-depth
operational and financial performance data from individual branch locations to the corporate office. We rely upon such information technology systems to manage customer orders on a timely basis, coordinate our sales and installation activities across locations and manage invoicing. As a result, the proper functioning of our information technology systems is critical to the

successful operation of our business. Although our information technology systems are protected through physical and software safeguards, our information technology systems are still vulnerable to natural disasters, power losses, unauthorized access, delays and outages in our service, system capacity limits from unexpected increases in our volume of business, telecommunication failures, computer viruses and other problems. A substantial disruption in our information technology systems for any prolonged time period could result in delays in receiving inventory and supplies or installing our products on a timely basis for our customers, which could adversely affect our reputation and customer relationships.

In the event of a cybersecurity incident, we could experience operational interruptions, incur substantial additional costs, become subject to legal or regulatory proceedings or suffer damage to our reputation.

In addition to the disruptions that may occur from interruptions in our information technology systems, cybersecurity threats and sophisticated and targeted cyberattacks pose a risk to our information technology systems. We have established security policies, processes and defenses designed to help identify and protect against intentional and unintentional misappropriation or corruption of our information technology systems and information and disruption of our operations. Despite these efforts, our information technology systems may be damaged, disrupted or shut down due to attacks by unauthorized access, malicious software, computer viruses, undetected intrusion, hardware failures or other events, and in these circumstances our disaster recovery plans may be ineffective or inadequate. These breaches or intrusions could lead to business interruption, exposure of proprietary or confidential information, data corruption, damage to our reputation, exposure to legal and regulatory proceedings and other costs. Such events could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, we could be adversely affected if any of our significant customers or suppliers experiences any similar events that disrupt their business operations or damage their reputation.

As cyberattacks become more sophisticated generally, we may be required to incur significant costs to strengthen our systems to protect against outside intrusions and/or continue to maintain insurance coverage related to the threat of such attacks.

Because we operate our business through highly dispersed locations across the United States, our operations may be materially adversely affected by inconsistent practices and the operating results of individual branches may vary.

We operate our business through a network of highly dispersed locations throughout the United States, supported by executives and services at our corporate office, with local branch management retaining responsibility for
day-to-day
operations and adherence to applicable local laws. Our operating structure can make it difficult for us to coordinate procedures across our operations in a timely manner or at all. In addition, our branches may require significant oversight and coordination from our corporate office to support their growth. Inconsistent implementation of corporate strategy and policies at the local level could materially and adversely affect our overall profitability, business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

In addition, the operating results of an individual branch may differ from those of another branch for a variety of reasons, including market size, management practices, competitive landscape, regulatory requirements, state and local taxes and local economic conditions. As a result, certain of our branches may experience higher or lower levels of growth than other branches. Therefore, our overall financial performance and results of operations may not be indicative of the performance and results of operations of any individual branch.

We have debt principal and interest payment requirements that may restrict our future operations and impair our ability to meet our obligations.
Our degree of leverage and level of interest expense may have important consequences, including:
our leverage may place us at a competitive disadvantage as compared with our less leveraged competitors and make us more vulnerable in the event of a downturn in general economic conditions or in any of our businesses;
our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our businesses and the industries in which we operate may be limited;
a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations will be dedicated to the payment of interest and principal on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the funds available to us for operations, capital expenditures, acquisitions, future business opportunities or obligations to pay rent in respect of our operating leases; and
Our ability to service our debt and other obligations will depend on our future operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our business may not generate sufficient cash flow, and future financings may not be available to provide sufficient net proceeds, to meet these obligations or to successfully execute our business strategies. See Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources, Credit Facilities.
Restrictions in our existing credit agreement,facilities and any future facilities or any other indebtedness we may incur in the future, limit our ability to take certain actions and could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, ability to make distributions to stockholders and the value of our common stock.

Our credit agreement,facilities, or any future credit facilityfacilities we enter into or other indebtedness we incur, mayimpose certain restrictions and obligations on us. Under certain of these instruments, we must comply with defined covenants that limit our ability to, among other things:

incur or guarantee additional debt;debt and issue preferred stock;

make distributions or dividends on or redeem or repurchase shares of common stock;

make certain investments and acquisitions;

make capital expenditures;

incur certain liens or permit them to exist;

enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates;

acquire, merge or consolidate with another company; andor

transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets.

Our credit agreement contains,facilities contain, and any future credit facilityfacilities or other debt instruments we may enter into may contain, covenants requiring us to maintain certain financial ratios and meet certain tests, such as aan excess cash flow test, fixed charge coverage ratio, leverage ratio or debt to earnings ratio. See Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources, Credit and Security Agreement.Facilities. Our ability to comply with those financial ratios and tests can be affected by events beyond our control, and we may not be able to comply with those ratios and tests when required to do so under the applicable debt instruments.

The provisions of our credit agreement,facilities, or other debt instruments, may affect our ability to obtain future financing and pursue attractive business opportunities and our flexibility in planning for, and reacting to, changes in business conditions. In addition, a failure to comply with the provisions of our credit agreement,facilities, any future credit facility or other debt instruments could result in a default or an event of default that could enable our lenders or other debt holders to declare the outstanding principal of that debt, together with accrued and unpaid interest, to be immediately due and payable. If the payment of our debt is accelerated, our assets may be insufficient to repay such debt in full, and our stockholders could experience a partial or total loss of their investment.

If we default on our obligations under the instruments governing our indebtedness, we may not be able to make payments on the notes.
A failure by us to comply with the agreements governing our indebtedness including, without limitation, our existing credit facilities or any future facilities, the indenture governing the notes offered hereby and our other contractual obligations (including restrictive, financial and other covenants included therein), to pay our indebtedness and fixed costs or to post collateral (including under hedging arrangements) could result in a variety of material adverse consequences, including a default under our indebtedness and the exercise of remedies by our creditors, lessors and other contracting parties, and such defaults could trigger additional defaults under other indebtedness or agreements.
Any such default under the agreements governing our existing or future indebtedness and the remedies sought by the holders of such indebtedness could make us unable to make payments to pay principal of, or premium, if any, and interest on the notes, substantially decrease the market value of the notes and result in a cross-default under the notes. In the event of a default under our existing credit facilities or any future facilities or in respect of other indebtedness, the holders of such indebtedness may be able to cause all of our available cash flow to be used to pay such indebtedness, may be able to terminate outstanding credit commitments and/or may be able to cease making loans to us and, in any event, could elect to declare all of the funds borrowed under the applicable agreement to be immediately due and payable, together with accrued and unpaid interest, and we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation.
If our operating performance declines, we may need to seek waivers from the holders of our indebtedness to avoid being in default under the instruments governing such indebtedness. If we breach our covenants under our indebtedness, we may not be able to obtain a waiver from the holders of such indebtedness on terms acceptable to us or at all. If this occurs, we would be in default under such indebtedness, the holders of such indebtedness and other lenders could exercise their rights as described above, and we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation.

Adverse credit ratings could increase our costs of borrowing money and limit our access to capital markets and commercial credit.
Moody’s Investor Service and Standard & Poor’s routinely evaluate our credit profile on an ongoing basis and have assigned ratings for our long-term debt. If these rating agencies downgrade any of our current credit ratings, our borrowing costs could increase and our access to the capital and commercial credit markets could be adversely affected.
Our indebtedness exposes us to interest expense increases if interest rates increase.

As of December 31, 2017, $199.0 million of our borrowings were at variable interest rates and expose us to interest rate risk.

If interest rates increase, our debt service obligations on theour variable rate indebtedness, if any exists at the balance sheet date, would increase even though the amount borrowed would remain the same, and our net income and cash flows would correspondingly decrease. An increase of 100 basis points in the interest rates payableSpecifically, we had no outstanding borrowings on our variable rate indebtedness would increase our annual interest expense by $2.0 million, based on our total variable interest rate indebtedness outstandingRevolver, as hereinafter defined, as of December 31, 2017.

2019, but should we have a balance in the future, we would incur interest based on a rate that varies per the conditions set forth in our agreement.

In addition, advances under our credit facilities generally bear interest based on, at our election, either the Eurodollar rate (“LIBOR”) or the base rate (which approximated the prime rate) plus a margin based on the type of rate applied and leverage ratio. On July 27, 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced that it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021, and it is unclear whether new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established. Our Term Loan Agreement, as hereinafter defined, includes a mechanism to establish an alternative Eurodollar rate if certain circumstances arise such that LIBOR may no longer be used. Additionally, our ABL Credit Agreement, as hereinafter defined, includes a provision related to the potential discontinuance of LIBOR to be replaced with one or more Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) values or another alternate benchmark rate. However, if LIBOR ceases to exist after 2021, the interest rates under the alternative rate could be higher than LIBOR. To the extent that these interest rates are higher, our interest expense will increase, which could adversely affect our financial condition, operating results and cash flows.
Our term loan bears interest at a variable rate, however interest rate hedges in place mitigate the risk of interest rate fluctuations associated with a portion of the outstanding debt balance. These derivative instruments are indexed to LIBOR, the value of which could also be impacted if LIBOR is limited or discontinued. For some instruments, the method of transitioning to an alternative reference rate may be challenging, especially if we cannot agree with the respective counterparty about how to make the transition. If a contract is not transitioned to an alternative reference rate and LIBOR is discontinued, the impact on our contracts is likely to vary by contract. If LIBOR is discontinued or if the methods of calculating LIBOR change from their current form, interest rates on our current or future indebtedness may be adversely affected. While we expect LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until the end of 2021, it is possible that LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that point. This could result, for example, if sufficient banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. In that case, the risks associated with the transition to an alternative reference rate will be accelerated and magnified.
We may require additional capital in the future, which may not be available on favorable terms or at all.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including industry and market conditions, our ability to successfully complete future business combinations and expansion of our existing operations. We anticipate that we may need to raise additional funds in order to grow our business and implement our business strategy. We anticipate that any such additional funds may be raised through equity or debt financings. Any equity or debt financing, if available at all, may be on terms that are not favorable to us and will be subject to

changes in interest rates and the capital markets environment. Even if we are able to raise capital through equity or debt financings, as to which there can be no assurance, the interest of existing stockholders in our company may be diluted, and the securities we issue may have rights, preferences and privileges that are senior to those of our common stock or may otherwise materially and adversely affect the holdings or rights of our existing stockholders. If we cannot obtain adequate capital, we may not be able to fully implement our business strategy and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Terrorist attacks or acts of war against the United States or increased domestic or international instability could have an adverse effect on our operations.
Adverse developments in the war on terrorism, terrorist attacks against the United States or any outbreak or escalation of hostilities between the United States and any foreign power may cause disruption to the economy, our business, our employees and our customers, which could negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations.
RISKS RELATED TO OWNERSHIP OF OUR COMMON STOCK

The price of our common stock may fluctuate substantially and your investment may decline in value.

The market price of our common stock may be significantly affected by factors, such as:

market conditions affecting the residential construction, commercial construction and building products industries;

quarterly variations in our results of operations;

changes in government regulations;

the announcement of acquisitions by us or our competitors;

changes in general economic and political conditions;

volatility in the financial markets;

results of our operations and the operations of others in our industry;

changes in interest rates;

threatened or actual litigation and government investigations;

the addition or departure of key personnel;

actions taken by our stockholders, including the sale or disposition of their shares of our common stock; and

differences between our actual financial and operating results and those expected by investors and analysts and changes in analysts’ recommendations or projections.

These and other factors may lower the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance.

Furthermore, in recent years the stock market and the price of our common stock has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant impact on the market price of securities issued by many companies, including companies in our industry. The changes frequently appear to occur without regard to the operating performance of the affected companies. Hence, the price of our common stock could fluctuate based upon factors that have little or nothing to do with us, and these fluctuations could materially reduce the price of our common stock and materially affect the value of your investment.

We are no longer an “emerging growth company” and, as a result, we will have to comply with increased disclosure and governance requirements.

Because the market value of our common stock held bynon-affiliates exceeded $700 million as of June 30, 2016, we were deemed a large accelerated filer as of December 31, 2016 and, accordingly, we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company. As a large accelerated filer, we are subject to certain requirements that apply to other public companies but did not previously apply to us. These requirements include:

compliance with the auditor attestation requirements in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting;

compliance with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board;

full disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and

compliance with the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Failure to comply with these requirements could subject us to enforcement actions by the SEC, divert management’s attention, damage our reputation and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We expect that compliance with the additional requirements of being a large accelerated filer will continue to require higher legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time consuming and costly.

Our internal controls over financial reporting may not be effective, which could have a significant and adverse effect on our business and reputation.

As a public company, we are required to comply with the SEC’s rules implementing Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which require management to certify financial and other information in our quarterly and annual reports and provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of controls over financial reporting.

To comply with the requirements of being a public company, we may undertake various actions, such as implementing additional internal controls and procedures and hiring additional accounting or internal audit staff.
25

Table of Contents
Testing and maintaining internal controls can divert our management’s attention from other matters that are important to the operation of our business. If we identify material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting or are unable to comply with the requirements of Section 404 or are unable to assert that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our common stock could be negatively affected, and we could become subject to investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources.

Future sales of our common stock, or the perception in the public markets that these sales may occur, may depress our stock price.

The market price of our common stock could decline significantly as a result of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock. These sales, or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock or make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.

We have approximately 31.930.0 million shares of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2017.2019. The shares of common stock are freely tradable, except for any shares of common stock that may be held or acquired by our directors, executive officers and other affiliates, the sale of which will be restricted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act.amended. As of December 31, 2017,2019, approximately 2.62.2 million of the 3.0 million shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan were available for issuance. These shares will become eligible for sale in the public market in the future, subject to certain legal and contractual limitations. If our existing stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or if the public perceives that such sales could occur, this could have an adverse impact on the market price of our common stock, even if there is no relationship between such sales and the performance of our business.

TCI Holdings, LLC (“TCI”), an entity managed by one of our directors, has pledged 600,000 shares of our common stock to secure a loan made by a financial institution to TCI. Depending on the occurrence of certain events relating to this financial obligation, TCI may experience a foreclosure or margin call that could result in the sale of these pledged shares, in the open market or otherwise. Such sales could adversely affect the market and trading price of our common stock. Also, in the future, we may issue shares of our common stock in

connection with investments or acquisitions. The amount of shares of our common stock issued in connection with an investment or acquisition could constitute a material portion of our then-outstanding shares of our common stock.

Jeff Edwards has significant ownership of our common stock and may have interests that conflict with those of our other stockholders.

As of December 31, 2017,2019, Jeff Edwards beneficially owns approximately 24.4%23.0% of our outstanding common stock. As a result of his beneficial ownership of our common stock, he has sufficient voting power to significantly influence all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, amendment of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and approval of significant corporate transactions, and he has significant influence over our management and policies. This concentration of voting power may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of us or discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares of common stock, which could prevent stockholders from receiving a premium for their shares of common stock. These actions may be taken even if other stockholders oppose them. The interests of Jeff Edwards may not always coincide with the interests of other stockholders, and he may act in a manner that advances his best interests and not necessarily those of our other stockholders. In addition, under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, Jeff Edwards is permitted to pursue corporate opportunities for himself, rather than for us.

Capped call transactions that were entered into by parties affiliated with Jeff Edwards and that become exercisable and expire on April 16, 2018 may affect the value of our common stock.

Certain of our stockholders entered into a capped call agreement with the underwriters of the secondary offering of our common stock completed on June 17, 2014. This agreement provided these stockholders with an option to call from the underwriters a total of approximately 1.0 million shares of our common stock at a capped price, with settlement required to be made in cash. During the second quarter of 2016, these stockholders exercised the call option with respect to approximately 0.7 million of these underlying shares. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2016, these stockholders simultaneously cancelled the remaining portion of the call option and purchased a new call option from the underwriters. The new capped call agreement provides these stockholders with the option to call from the underwriters a total of approximately 0.4 million shares of our common stock at a capped price. The option becomes exercisable and expires on April 16, 2018 and will be settled in cash. The capped call agreement is between these stockholders and the underwriters and does not represent compensation to the stockholders for services rendered to us. The price paid for the option represents the fair value of that transaction and we are not a party to the agreement. In connection with establishing its initial hedge of the capped call transactions, the option counterparty (or one of its affiliates) purchased shares of our common stock.

In addition, the option counterparty (or one of its affiliates) may modify its hedge position by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions from time to time. This activity could also cause or mitigate an increase or decrease in the market price of our common stock. We cannot predict what effect the capped call transactions could have on the price of our common stock.

Provisions of our charter documents and Delaware law could delay, discourage or prevent an acquisition of us, even if the acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders, and could make it more difficult for our stockholders to change our management.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares of our common stock. In addition, these provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempt by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management by making it more difficult to replace or remove members of our board of directors. These provisions include the following:

a classified board of directors with three-year staggered terms;

no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates;

26

Table of Contents
the exclusive right of our board of directors to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the board of directors or the resignation, death or removal of a director, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on our board of directors;

the ability of our board of directors to authorize the issuance of shares of preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of the holders of our stock or a hostile acquirer;

a prohibition on stockholder action by written consent, which forces stockholder action to be taken at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders;

a requirement that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by a resolution duly adopted by our board of directors; and

advance notice procedures that stockholders must comply with in order to nominate candidates to our board of directors or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders’ meeting, which may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us.

In addition, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which generally prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any of a broad range of business combinations with a stockholder owning 15% or more of such corporation’s outstanding voting stock for a period of three years following the date on which such stockholder became an “interested” stockholder. In order for us to consummate a business combination with an “interested” stockholder within three years of the date on which the stockholder became “interested,” either (1) the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming “interested” must be approved by our board of directors prior to the date the stockholder became “interested,” (2) the “interested” stockholder must own at least 85% of our outstanding voting stock at the time the transaction commences (excluding voting stock owned by directors who are also officers and certain employee stock plans) or (3) the business combination must be approved by our board of directors and authorized by at least
two-thirds
of our stockholders (excluding the “interested” stockholder). This provision could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control, whether or not it is desired by or beneficial to our stockholders. Any delay or prevention of a change of control transaction or changes in our board of directors and management could deter potential acquirers or prevent the completion of a transaction in which our stockholders could receive a substantial premium over the then-current market price for their shares of our common stock.

We dohave not expect tohistorically paid any dividends and may not pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.

We intend to retain

Part of our business strategy includes retaining our future earnings, if any, in order to reinvest in the development and growth of our business and, therefore, dowe have not intend to paypaid dividends on our common stock forin the foreseeable future.past. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, the limits imposed by the terms of our credit agreement,facilities, or any then-existing debt instruments, and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. Accordingly, investors in our common stock may need to sell their shares to realize a return on their investment in our common stock, and investors may not be able to sell their shares at or above the prices paid for them.

If securities analysts do not publish favorable reports about us or if we, or our industry, are the subject of unfavorable commentary, the price of our common stock could decline.

The trading price for our common stock depends in part on the research and reports about us that are published by analysts in the financial industry. Analysts could issue negative commentary about us or our industry, or they could downgrade our common stock. We may also not receive sufficient research coverage or visibility in the market. Any of these factors could result in the decline of the trading price of our common stock, causing investors in our common stock to lose all or a portion of their investment.

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

You should read the following in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplemental Data, of Part II of this Form
10-K.
This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the section captioned “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Form

OVERVIEW

We are one of the nation’s largest insulation installers for the residential new construction market and are also a diversified installer of complementary building products, including waterproofing, fire-stopping and fireproofing, garage doors, rain gutters, window blinds, shower doors, closet shelving, mirrors and other products throughout the United States. We offer our portfolio of services for new and existing single-family and multi-family residential and commercial building projects in all 48 continental states and the District of Columbia from our national network of over 125180 branch locations. Substantially all of our net revenue comes from service-based installation of these products in the residential new construction, repair and remodel and commercial construction end markets. We believe our business is well positioned to continue to profitably grow due to our strong balance sheet, liquidity and our continuing acquisition strategy.

A large portion of our net revenue comes from the U.S. residential new construction market, which depends upon a number of economic factors, including demographic trends, interest rates, consumer confidence, employment rates, housing inventory levels, foreclosure rates, the health of the economy and availability of mortgage financing. The strategic acquisitions of multiple companies over the last several years contributed meaningfully to our 31.3%13.1% increase in net revenue during the year ended December 31, 20172019 compared to 2016.

The recently passed Tax Cuts and Jobs Act has added additional momentum2018.

We have omitted discussion of 2017 results where it would be redundant to the economic landscape. While there have been concerns about the impact of the new tax law on housing, initial readings and reviews are suggesting that it is generally stimulative to the economy. In addition, concerns about the reduction of the mortgage interest deduction, deductibility of real estate taxes, state taxes and local taxes seem to be offset by overall optimistic momentum around economic stability and growth. We may adjust our strategies based on housing demand and our performancediscussion previously included in eachPart II, Item 7 of our markets.

Gross margin of 28.8% benefited from selling price increases in 2019 resulting from significant insulation materials price increases in 2018.

$116.1 million

In September 2019, we modified our debt structure in order to take advantage of the increaseattractive market conditions. We issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of senior unsecured notes (the “Senior Notes”) with interest payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on February 1 and expandedAugust 1, commencing on February 1, 2020. The net proceeds from the Senior Notes offering were $295.0 million after debt issuance costs, a portion of which we used to partially repay our market position in commercial insulation installationoutstanding obligations (including accrued and strengthenedunpaid interest) under our complementary installed product offerings in waterproofing, fire-stopping and fireproofing. During 2017, we maintained momentum in our acquisition strategy, as we completed ten acquisitions, not including multiple insignificanttuck-in acquisitions merged into existing operations, which expanded our product line offerings and geographical reach. In April 2017, we entered into a term loan credit agreement which(the “Term Loan Agreement”) and pay fees and expenses related to entry into the ABL Credit Agreement as defined below. In September 2019, we also entered into a new asset-based lending

credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”). The ABL Credit Agreement provides for a seven-year $300 million term loan facility and an asset-based lending credit agreement which provides forfacility (the “ABL Revolver”) of up to approximately $100$200.0 million with a five-year maturity, which replaced our previous revolving credit facility of up to $150.0 million. A portionAs of December 31, 2019, we had no amounts outstanding on the ABL Revolver. In December 2019, we amended and restated our Term Loan. The amended Term Loan (i) effects a repricing of the proceedsinterest rate applicable to the term loans thereunder from LIBOR plus 2.50% to LIBOR plus 2.25% and (ii) replaces Royal Bank of Canada with Bank of America, N.A. as the Senior Secured Credit Facilitiesadministrative agent and collateral agent thereunder. See Liquidity and Capital Resources section below for further information about our debt.
We were usedsuccessful at realizing selling price increases during the year to repay,offset previous cost increases on the material we install. While we continue to proactively work with customers and suppliers to mitigate these cost impacts, we will likely continue to experience inflation on the materials we purchase in full, all amounts outstanding under the previous credit and security agreement.

2020.

We believe there are several trends that should drive long-term growth in the housing market.market, even if there are temporary periods of slowed growth. These long-term trends include an aging housing stock, population growth, and household formation growth. These positive trends are reflected in Blue Chip’s February 2018 consensus forecast, which projectsgrowth and the fact that housing starts to increase from approximately 1.2 million in 2017 to approximately 1.3 million in 2018.are currently below long-term historic averages. We expect that our net revenue, gross profit and operating income will benefit from this growth.

Same branch sales1

Same branch net revenues increased during 2017 compared to 2016 due to a year-over-year increase in housing permits across the majority of our markets. Of the total revenue increase of $269.9 million in 2017, approximately $49.6 million was predominantly attributable to organic growth in the volume of completed jobs in all of our end markets, while $34.6 million resulted from a variety of factors including customer and product mix, market pricing variations and insulation volume requirement changes driven by building code requirements. Of the total revenue increase of $200.3 million in 2016, approximately $58.6 million was predominantly attributable to organic growth in the volume of completed jobs in all of our end markets, while $44.8 million resulted from a variety of factors including customer and product mix, market pricing variations and insulation volume requirement changes driven by building code requirements.

Acquisition branch sales2

Since 1999, our acquisition strategy has allowed us to generate significant scale, diversify our product offering and expand into many of the largest housing markets in the United States. We have pursued and expect to continue to pursue both geographic expansion as well as accretive acquisitionsa forward interest rate swap beginning May 31, 2022 with a beginning notional of $100.0 million. Including our

pre-existing
swap, these three swaps serve to hedge $200.0 million of the variable cash flows on our Term Loan until maturity.
In February 2018, our board of directors authorized a $50 million stock repurchase program, effective March 2, 2018, and in existing markets. We expectOctober 2018, our board of directors approved an additional stock repurchase program, effective November 6, 2018, pursuant to target acquisition candidates that meetwhich we may purchase up to an additional $100 million of our criteria, which often include a strong local reputation and high-quality management and labor force. Our acquisition strategy is also focused on using our national buying power, value-enhancing technology and proven operating platform to achieve operating efficiencies in our acquisitions.

The dollar increase in selling expenses in 20172019 was primarily driven by a year-over-year increase in selling wages, benefits and commissions in the amounts of $3.1$6.0 million, and $4.0 million, respectively,or 10.0%, which supported both organic and acquisition-related growth. However, sellingour increased net revenue of 13.1%. Selling expense decreased 0.6%remained flat as a percentage of sales primarily due to maintaining our selling leverage gained throughas we increased commercial, multi-family and production-builder sales in which commission rates are typically less than those for local and regional residential builders. The increase in 2016 was primarily due to higher commissions, wages and benefits of $9.1 million, and increased bad debt costs of $2.0 million, both of which supported organic and acquisition-related growth.

Administrative

The increase in administrative expenses in 20172019 was primarily due to an increase in wages and benefits in the amount of $25.3$16.1 million, which was attributable to both acquisitions stock compensation and to support our organic growth. In addition, our facility costs increased $4.8 million primarily due to leases from the facilities of acquired companies and expanded facilities to support our growth.growth as well as company performance. During 2017,2019, we saw our costs related to liability insurance increase $5.2 million and our costs related to facilities increase $4.0 million due to overall growth as well as an increase in our accountingbusiness.
Amortization
Our intangible assets include

customer listings, trade names and legal fees as a result of no longer qualifying as an emerging growth company. The increase in 2016 was primarily due to higher wages and benefits in the amount of $15.5 million, which was attributable to acquisitions and to support our organic growth and our facility costs increased $3.2 million primarily due to leases from the facilities of acquired companies.

During the year ended December 31, 2017,2019, our tax rate was unfavorably impacted by the tax effect of losses incurred by separate companies to which no benefit can be recognized due to a full valuation allowance against the losses and various permanent items.
During the year ended December 31, 2018, our tax rate was favorably impacted by excess tax benefits from share-based compensation arrangements the statute expiring for various uncertain tax positions and the revaluation of our net deferred liabilities due to tax reform. During the year ended December 31, 2016, our tax rate was favorably impacted by a decrease to the state income tax rate. During the year ended December 31, 2015, our tax rate was favorably impacted by a non-taxable bargain purchase gain, which was offset by an increase in the state income tax rate and various other unfavorable permanent items.

For each of the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 our tax rate was favorably impacted by deductions related to domestic production activities and usage of net operating losses for a tax filing entity which previously had a full valuation allowance. This favorable impactfavorability was offset by the tax effect of losses incurred by separate tax filing entities in a loss position forcompanies to which no benefit can be recognized due to a full valuation allowance will be accounted for against the losses, causing nolosses.

Impacts of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, which had a positive impact on our 2017 effective tax rate due to the revaluation of our ending net deferred tax liabilities, and we expect it will have a positive impact on our effective tax rate in 2018 and subsequent years.

Income tax expense decreased $3.4 million for the yearyears ended December 31, 2017, compared to 2016,2019 and 2018, our cash flow hedge position decreased primarily due to the impact of the Tax Act. The Company recognized a $3.8 million tax benefit as a result of revaluing the ending net deferred tax liabilities from 35% to the newly enacted U.S. corporate income tax rate of 21%, which was partially offset by tax expense of $0.4 million related to the revaluation of the uncertain tax positions and the valuation allowance. Potential future offsets to the lower federal corporate tax rate under the Tax Act include the impacts of the potential loss of the domestic production activities deduction as well as the loss of certain employee expense-related deductions.

We have recognized the tax impacts related to the revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and included these amountsunexpected declines in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. The

ultimate impact may differ from these provisional amounts, possibly materially, due to, among other things, additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions we have made, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions we may take as a result of the Tax Act.

KEY FACTORS AFFECTING OUR OPERATING RESULTS

Trends in the construction industry

Construction Industry

Our operating results may vary based on the amount and type of products we install and the mix of our end markets among new single-family, multi-family and commercial builders and owners of existing homes. Forecasts issued by various third-party industry sources suggest a higher rate of growth in single-family new home construction compared to that for multi-family new home construction over the next couple of years. We expect to benefit from this shift in mix as our net revenue per single-family completion is higher than our net revenue per multi-family unit completion. In addition, our total net revenue from single-family completions is higher than from multi-family completions. Over the next couple of years, we expect to benefit from the continued growth of large homebuildersin single-family new residential construction as well as regional and local builders and individual lot owners.housing returns to historic stabilized levels. We maintain a mix of business among all types of homebuilders ranging from small custom builders to large regional and national homebuilders as well as a wide range of commercial builders. Net revenue derived from our ten largest homebuilder customers in the United States was approximately 14%15% for the year ended December 31, 2017.2019. The residential new construction and repair and remodel markets represented approximately 83%, 88%82% and 89%84% of our total net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162019 and 2015,2018, respectively, with the remaining portion attributable to the commercial construction end market. In addition, the residential repair and remodel market represented approximately 7%, 8% and 8%

The industry supply of materials we install was impacted duringhas experienced disruptions in the fourth quarter of 2017, resultingpast but stabilized in insulation material allocation throughout the industry and, as a result, increased2019. Increased market pricing, in 2018. This increased market pricingregardless of the catalyst, has and could continue to impact our results of operations in 2020, to the extent that price increases cannot be passed on to our customers.

We began to see improvement in our selling prices in the second quarter of 2019, and this continued throughout 2019 as evidenced by our 1.0% improvement in gross profit as a percentage of sales during the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31, 2018. We will continue to work with our customers to adjust selling prices to offset higher costs as they occur.

Cost of Labor costs

Our business is labor intensive. As of December 31, 2017,2019, we had approximately 6,9008,500 employees, most of whom work as installers on local construction sites. As the housing market continues to recover, labor markets continue to tighten as the demand increases for installers. We expect to spend more to hire, train and retain installers to support our growing business in 2018,2020, as tight labor availability continues within the construction industry. We offer a comprehensive benefits package, which many of our local competitors are not able to provide, which will increase costs as we hire additional personnel. Our workers’ compensation costs also continue to increase as we increase our coverage for additional personnel. With

We believe this is partially a result of various programs meant to allbenefit our employees, or otherwise be subjectincluding our financial wellness plan, longevity stock compensation plan for employees and our new Installed Building Products Foundation meant to a payment per employee based onbenefit our employees, their families and their communities. While improved retention drives lower costs to recruit and train new employees, resulting in greater installer productivity, these improvements are somewhat offset by the affordability criteria therein. Therefore, health careadditional costs are expectedof these incentives. In 2019, we donated $1.4 million to increase proportionately with increases in the labor force.

Foundation.

Other factors

Factors

We expect our selling and administrative expenses to continue to increase as our business grows, which could impact our future operating profitability.

INFLATION

Our performance is dependent to a significant extent upon the levels of U.S. residential new construction spending, which is affected by factors such as interest rates, inflation, consumer confidence and unemployment. We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations up to this point in the housing recovery.

2019.

SEASONALITY

We tend to have higher sales during the second half of the year as our homebuilder customers complete construction of homes placed under contract for sale in the traditionally stronger spring selling season. In addition, some of our larger branches operate in states impacted by winter weather and as such experience a slowdown in construction activity during the first quarter of the calendar year. This winter slowdown contributes to traditionally lower sales and profitability in our first quarter. See Item 1, Business, for further information.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital resources primarily consist of cash from operations and borrowings under our various debt agreements and capital equipment leases and loans. Our primary capital requirements are to fund working capital needs, operating expenses, acquisitions and capital expenditures and to meet required principal and interest payments. Our capitalWe may also use our resources primarily consist of cash from operations and borrowings underto fund our credit agreement and capital equipment leases and loans.optional stock repurchase program. Our investments consist of highly liquid instruments primarily including primarily corporate bonds and commercial paper. As of December 31, 2017,2019, we had no outstanding borrowings under our ABL Revolverasset-based lending credit facility (as defined below) and our borrowing availability was $100.0 million prior to being reduced by outstanding letters of credit of $17.9 million.

Our acquisition of Alpha, which was completed on January 5, 2017, required us to commit significant resources to the acquisition and ongoing support of Alpha’s business. This acquisition was funded by drawing on the credit facility in existence at that time.

.

We believe that our cash flows from operations, combined with our current cash levels, highly liquid investments and available borrowing capacity, will be adequate to support our ongoing operations and to fund our debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital for at least the next 12 months as evidenced by our net positive cash flows from operations for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017.

LIBOR is used as a reference rate for our Term Loan and our interest rate swap agreements we use to hedge our interest rate exposure. In 2017, 2016the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the authority that regulates LIBOR, announced that it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021, and 2015.

it is unclear whether new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established. Our Term Loan Agreement, as hereinafter defined, was amended on November 30, 2017 to include a mechanism to establish an alternative Eurodollar rate if certain circumstances arise such that LIBOR may no longer be used. Additionally, our ABL Credit Agreement includes a provision related to the potential discontinuance of LIBOR to be replaced with one or more Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) values or another alternate benchmark rate. However, if LIBOR ceases to exist after 2021, the interest rates under the alternative rate could be higher than LIBOR. In addition, the value of derivative instruments tied to LIBOR could also be impacted if LIBOR is limited or discontinued. We continue to review the impact the LIBOR

5.75% Senior Secured Credit Agreement

On April 13, 2017,Notes due 2028

In September 2019, we enteredissued $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior unsecured notes (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes will mature on February 1, 2028 and interest will be payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on February 1 and August 1, commencing on February 1, 2020. The net proceeds from the Senior Notes offering were $295.0 million after debt issuance costs. We used some of the net proceeds to repay a portion of our outstanding obligations (including accrued and unpaid interest) under our term loan credit agreement (as defined below) and to pay fees and expenses related to the entry into a $300new revolving credit facility described below.
The indenture covering the Senior Notes contains restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and certain of our subsidiaries (subject to certain exceptions) to: (i) incur additional debt and issue preferred stock; (ii) pay dividends on, redeem or repurchase stock; (iii) prepay subordinated debt; (iv) create liens; (v) make specified types of investments; (vi) apply net proceeds from certain asset sales; (vii) engage in transactions with affiliates; (viii) merge, consolidate or sell substantially all of our assets; and (ix) pay dividends and make other distributions from subsidiaries.

Credit Facilities
In December 2019, we amended and restated our $400 million, seven-year term loan facility which amortizesdue April 2025 (the “Term Loan”) under our credit agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”), dated as of April 13, 2017 (as previously amended by the First Amendment thereto dated November 30, 2017 and by the Second Amendment thereto dated June 19, 2018). The amended Term Loan (i) effects a repricing of the interest rate applicable to the term loans thereunder from LIBOR plus 2.50% to LIBOR plus 2.25% and (ii) replaces Royal Bank of Canada with Bank of America, N.A. as the administrative agent and collateral agent thereunder. As of December 31, 2019, we had $198.3 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, due on our Term Loan. The amended Term Loan also has a margin of 1.50% in quarterly principal paymentsthe case of $0.8 million. Concurrently,base rate loans.
In September 2019, we also entered into a new asset-based lending credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”). The ABL Credit Agreement provides for an asset-based lending credit agreement providing for a revolving line of creditfacility (the “ABL Revolver”) of up to approximately $100$200.0 million with a five-year maturity, which replaced the Company’s previous revolving credit facility. Borrowing availability under the ABL Revolver is based on a percentage of the value of certain assets securing the Company’s obligations and those of the subsidiary guarantors thereunder. In connection with the Amended and Restated Term Loan, we entered into a Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as ABL Agent for the lenders under the ABL Credit Agreement, and Bank of America, N.A., as Term Loan Agent for the lenders under the Term Loan. Including outstanding letters of credit, our remaining availability under the ABL Revolver as of December 31, 2019 was $161.3 million.
The ABL Revolver bears interest at either the Eurodollar rate or the base rate (which approximated the prime rate), at the Company’s election, plus a margin of (A) 1.25% or 1.50% in the case of Eurodollar rate loans (based on a measure of availability under the ABL Credit Agreement) and (B) 0.25% or 0.50% in the case of base rate loans (based on a measure of availability under the ABL Credit Agreement).
The ABL Revolver also provides incremental revolving credit facility commitments of up to $50 million$50.0 million. The terms and conditions of any incremental revolving credit facility commitments must be no more favorable than the terms of the ABL Revolver. The ABL Revolver also allows for the issuance of letters of credit. credit of up to $75.0 million in aggregate and borrowing of swingline loans of up to $20.0 million in aggregate.
The ABL Credit Agreement contains a financial covenant requiring the satisfaction of a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0x in the event that we do not meet a minimum measure of availability under the ABL Revolver.
All of the obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities,Term Loan and ABL Revolver are guaranteed by all of the Company’s existing restricted subsidiaries and will be guaranteed by the Company’s future restricted subsidiaries. Additionally, all obligations under the Term Loan and ABL Revolver, and the guarantees of

those obligations, are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens. Our term loanliens, including a first-priority security interest in such assets that constitute ABL Priority Collateral, as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement, and asset-based lending credit agreement beara second-priority security interest at either the Eurodollar rate (“LIBOR”) or the base rate (which approximated the prime rate), at our election, plus a margin based on the type of rate applied and leverage ratio: (i) thein such assets that constitute Term Loan Agreement margin will be (A) 2.50% in the case of Eurodollar rate loans and (B) 1.50% in the case of base rate loans, and (ii) the ABL Facility margin will be (A) 1.25%, 1.50% or 1.75% in the case of Eurodollar rate loans (based on a measure of availability under the ABL Facility) and (B) 0.25%, 0.50% or 0.75% in the case of base rate loans (based on a measure of availability under the ABL Facility). Proceeds from the Senior Secured Credit Facilities were used to repay in full all amounts outstanding under our previous credit and security agreement, datedPriority Collateral, as of February 29, 2016, by and between the Company and the lenders named therein.

The Term Loan was amended on November 30, 2017 (the “Amendment”) to refinance the total principal amount of the Term Loan outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement immediately prior to the effective date of the Amendment, or an aggregate principal amount of $299.3 million on substantially the same terms as the Initial Term Loan, except for (i) a decrease in the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) applicable to the interest rates in the case of base rate and Eurodollar rate loans, (ii) an increase in the cap on permitted indebtedness related to capital expenditures other than capital lease obligations and (iii) the inclusion of a mechanism to establish an alternative Eurodollar rate if certain circumstances have arisen such that the London Interbank Offered Rate may no longer be used.

At December 31, 2017,2019, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants under the Term Loan Agreement, ABL Credit Agreement and the Senior Secured Credit Agreements. See Note 6Notes.
Derivative Instruments
As of December 31, 2019, we had two interest rate swaps, each with an associated floor, with a total beginning notional of $200.0 million, one that amortizes quarterly to $95.3 million at a maturity date of May 31, 2022 and one that amortizes quarterly to $93.3 million at a maturity date of April 15, 2025. These two swaps combined serve to hedge $196.5 million of the variable cash flows on our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Form10-K for more information regardingTerm Loan as of December 31, 2019. We also had a forward interest rate swap with an associated floor beginning May 31, 2022 with a beginning notional of $100.0 million that amortizes quarterly to $97.0 million at a maturity date of April 15, 2025. These three swaps serve to hedge substantially all of the variable cash flows on our Senior Secured Credit Facilities, including information pertaining to applicable covenants.

Vehicle and Equipment Notes

We have financing loan agreements with various lenders to provide financing for the purpose of purchasing or leasing vehicles and equipment used in the normal course of business. Vehicles and equipment purchased or leased under each financing arrangement serve as collateral for the note applicable to such financing arrangement. Regular payments are due under each note for a period of typically 60 consecutive months after the incurrence of the obligation.

Total gross assets and respective outstanding loan balances relating to our master loan and equipment agreements were $74.5$130.2 million and $50.4$72.7 million as of December 31, 2017,2019, respectively, and $48.7$98.7 million and $38.2$60.4 million as of December 31, 2016,2018, respectively.

Letters of Credit and Bonds

We use letters of credit to secure our performance under our general liability and workers’ compensation insurance programs. As of December 31, 2017, we had $17.9 million of outstanding letters of credit and $0.3 million in cash securing our performance under these insurance programs. In January 2018, we posted $10.0 million into a trust to serve as additional collateral for our workers’ compensation and general liability policies. Beginning January 2018, this $10.0 million will be classified as restricted cash on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We occasionallymay use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span several months. As of December 31, 2017, we had 64 performance bonds outstanding, totaling approximately $29.9 million.multiple accounting periods. Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed.

Capital

We carefully manage our working capital and operating expenses. As of December 31, 20172019, and 2016,2018, our working capital, including cash, was $195.1$367.8 million, or 17.2%24.3% of net revenue, and $62.3$229.9 million, or 7.2%17.2% of net revenue, respectively. The increase in working capital year-over-year in 20172019 was driven primarily by a $48.0$115.3 million increase in cash and cash equivalents and investments resulting from issuance of our Senior Notes and positive operating cash flows, and loan activity and an increase of $30.1 million in short-term investments. In addition, the increase in accounts receivable and decreaseinventories resulting from, and supporting, our increased net revenue. These increases were offset by a partial payment of our Term Loan and an increase in accounts payable, combined, accounted for only 1.3% of the total 10.0% increase as a percentage of revenue in working capital.payable. We continue to look for opportunities to reduce our working capital as a percentage of net revenue.

Financial Instruments

Interest Rate Derivatives

We have various borrowing facilities which charge interest based on the one month U.S. dollar LIBOR rate plus an interest spread. On May 8, 2017, we entered into two interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $100.0 million. During the second quarter of 2017, we began to receive variable rate interest payments based upon one month U.S. dollar LIBOR and in return were obligated to pay interest at a fixed rate of 1.9%. This effectively converted the borrowing rate on $100.0 million of debt from a variable rate to a fixed rate. These derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, any effective portion of the unrealized gain or loss on these derivative instruments is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transactions and in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. Any ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is recognized into earnings. For additional disclosures of the gain or loss included with other comprehensive income and earnings in 2017, see Note 9 tomore information surrounding our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Form10-K, Derivative and Hedging Activities. The assumptions used in measuring fair value of the interest rate derivatives are considered level 2 inputs, which are based upon LIBOR and interest paid based upon a designated fixed rate over the life of the swap agreements.

Capped Call Agreement

Certain of our stockholders entered into a capped call agreement with the underwriters of the secondary offering of our common stock completed on June 17, 2014. This agreement provided these stockholders with an option to call from the underwriters a total of approximately 1.0 million shares of our common stock at a capped price, with settlement required to be made in cash. During 2016, these stockholders exercised the call option with respect to approximately 0.7 million of the shares. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2016, these stockholders simultaneously cancelled the remaining portion of the call option and purchased a new call option from the underwriters. This new capped call agreement providesprovided these stockholders with the option to call from the underwriters a total of approximately 0.4 million shares of our common stock at a capped price. The option becomes exercisable and expireswas exercised on April 16, 2018 and will bewas settled in cash. The capped call agreement iswas between these stockholders and the underwriters and does not represent compensation to the stockholders for services rendered to us. The

price paid for the option represents the fair value of that transaction and we are not a party to the agreement. Accordingly, we have not recorded any expense related to this transaction.

There were no capped call agreements as of December 31, 2019 or 2018.

Contractual Obligations

In the table below, we set forth our enforceable and legally binding obligations as of December 31, 2017.2019. Some of the amounts included in the table are based on management’s estimates and assumptions about these obligations, including their duration, the possibility of renewal, anticipated actions by third parties and other factors. Because these estimates and assumptions are necessarily subjective, our actual payments may vary from those reflected in the table. In addition, certain other long-term liabilities included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as well as our unrecognized tax benefits under ASCAccounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes,” have been excluded from the contractual obligations table because of the inherent uncertainty and the inability to reasonably estimate the timing of cash outflows.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Certain accounting policies involve judgments and uncertainties to such an extent that there is a reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could have been reported using different assumptions or under different conditions. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of our assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We provide discussion of our more significant accounting policies, estimates, assumptions and judgments used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements below.

Revenue Recognition
Our revenues are derived primarily through contracts with customers whereby we install insulation and Cost Recognition

Revenueother complementary building products and are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. An insignificant portion of our sales, primarily retail sales, is accounted for on a

point-in-time
basis when the sale occurs, adjusted accordingly for any return provisions. We do offer assurance-type warranties on certain of our installed products and installationservices that do not represent a separate performance obligation and, as such, do not impact the timing or extent of products is recognized when all ofrevenue recognition.
For contracts that are not complete at the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. Wereporting date, we recognize revenue using eitherover time utilizing a cost-to-cost input method as we believe this represents the completed contract method orbest measure of when goods and services are transferred to thepercentage-of-completion method of accounting, depending primarily on the length of time required to complete the contract. The completed contract method is used for short-term contracts for which financial position and results of operations reported on the completed-contract basis would not vary materially from those resulting from use of thepercentage-of-completion method. Revenue from the sale and installation of products is recognized net of adjustments and discounts and, for revenue using the completed contract method of accounting, at the time the installation is complete. customer. When thepercentage-of-completionthis method is used, we estimate the costs to complete individual contracts and record as revenue that portion of the total contract price that is considered complete based on the relationship of costs incurred to date to total anticipated costs (the cost-to-cost approach).costs. Under the
cost-to-cost approach,
method, the use of estimated costs to complete each contract is a significant variable in the process of determining recognized revenue, requires significant judgment and iscan change throughout the duration of a significant factor in the accounting for contracts.contract due to contract modifications and other factors impacting job completion. The costs of earned revenue include all direct

material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools and repairs. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Due

Our long-term contracts can be subject to modification to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. We consider contract modifications to exist when the modification either creates new, or changes the existing, enforceable rights and obligations. Most of our contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract due to the various estimates inherentsignificant integration service provided in the context of the contract and are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price and our measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative
catch-up
basis.
Billing on our long-term contracts occurs primarily on a monthly basis throughout the contract accounting,period whereby we submit invoices for customer payment based on actual results could differor estimated costs incurred during the billing period. On certain of our long-term contracts the customer may withhold payment on an invoice equal to a percentage of the invoice amount, which will be subsequently paid after satisfactory completion of each installation project.

Table of Contents
This amount is referred to as retainage and is common practice in the construction industry, as it allows for customers to ensure the quality of the service performed prior to full payment. Retainage receivables are classified as current or long-term assets based on the expected time to project completion.
We disaggregate our revenue from those estimates, which could result in material changes tocontracts with customers by end market and product, as we believe it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our financial statementsrevenue and related disclosures.

cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Accounts Receivable

We account for trade receivables based on amounts billed to customers. Past due receivables are determined based on contractual terms. We do not accrue interest on any of our trade receivables.

Retainage receivables represent the amount retained by our customers to ensure the quality of the installation and is received after satisfactory completion of each installation project. Management regularly reviews aging of retainage receivables and changes in payment trends and records an allowance when collection of amounts due are considered at risk. Amounts retained by project owners under construction contracts and included in accounts receivable were $23.1$33.4 million and $10.3$28.0 million as of December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, respectively.

Goodwill
Goodwill results from business combinations and represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of acquired tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets. Annually, on October 1, or if conditions indicate an earlier review is necessary, we either perform a quantitative test or assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount and if it is necessary to perform the quantitative
two-step
goodwill impairment test. If we perform the quantitative test, we compare the carrying value of the reporting unit to an estimate of the reporting unit’s fair value to identify potential impairment. The estimate of the reporting unit’s fair value is determined by weighting a discounted cash flow model and a market-related model using current industry information that involve significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). In determining the estimated future cash flow, we consider and apply certain estimates and judgments, including current and projected future levels of income based on management’s plans, business trends, prospects, market and economic conditions and market-participant considerations. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, a second step is performed to determine the amount of the potential goodwill impairment. If impaired, goodwill is written down to its estimated implied fair value.
Leases
On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842, “Leases” which, among other changes, requires us to record liabilities classified as operating leases on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets along with a corresponding
right-of-use
asset. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under Topic 842, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 840. See Note 8, “Leases,” to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Form
10-K
for additional information.
Derivatives and Hedging Activities
We record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether we have elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow
44

hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. We may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of our risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or we elect not to apply hedge accounting. See Note 10, Derivatives and Hedging, to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Form
10-K
for additional information on our accounting policy for derivative instruments and hedging activities.
Share-Based Compensation

Our share-based compensation program is designed to attract and retain employees while also aligning employees’ interests with the interests of our stockholders. Restricted stock awards are periodically granted to certain employees, officers and
non-employee
members of our board of directors under the stockholder-approved 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan.

Certain of our stock awards are deemed to be equity-based with a service condition and do not contain a market or performance condition with the exception of performance-based awards granted to certain officers and performance-based restricted stock units. Fair value of the
non-performance-based
awards to employees and officers is measured at the grant date and amortized to expense over the vesting period of the awards using the straight-line attribution method for all service-based awards with a graded vesting feature. This fair value is reduced by assumed forfeitures and adjusted for actual forfeitures until vesting. We also issue performance stock-basedperformance-based stock awards to certain officers under our 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The performance-based compensation expense is recorded over the requisite service period using the graded-vesting method for the entire award. Performance-based stock awards are accounted for at fair value at date of grant. We also periodically grant restrictedperformance-based stock units to certain employees under the stockholder-approved 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan. These units convert to shares upon meeting time- and performance-based requirements.

Liability-based awards: Certain of our stock awards represent a predominately-fixed monetary amount that is to be settled with a variable number of shares. These awards contain both time and performance requirements, and are deemed to be liability-based, which requires that were-measure to reflect the fair value at the end of each reporting period. The change in fair value each reporting period is recorded as compensation cost, with a corresponding increase or decrease in the share-based liability, either immediately or over the remaining service period depending on the vested status of the award.

Compensation expense for both equity and liability-based restrictedperformance-based stock units is recorded based on an assessment each reporting period of the probability that certain performance goals will be met during the contingent vesting period. If performance goals are not probable of occurrence, no compensation expense will be recognized. If performance goals that were previously deemed probable are not or are not expected to be met, the previously recognized compensation cost related to such performance goals will be reversed. Employees and officers are subject to tax at the vesting date based on the market price of the shares on that date, or on the grant date if an election is made.

Business Combinations

The purchase price for business combinations is allocated to the estimated fair values of acquired tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill and assumed liabilities, where applicable. Additionally, we recognize customer relationships, trademarks and trade names and
non-competition
agreements as identifiable intangible assets. These assets are recorded at fair value as of the transaction date. The fair value of these intangibles is determined primarily using the income approach and using current industry information which involves significant unobservable inputs classified as Level 3 inputs. These inputs include projected sales, margin and tax rate.

At times, the total purchase price for a business combination could be less than the estimated fair values of acquired tangible and intangible assets. In these cases, we record a gain on bargain purchase within Other Expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income rather than goodwill in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Insurance Liabilities

We carry insurance for a number of risks, including, but not limited to, workers’ compensation, general liability, vehicle liability, property and our obligation for employee-related health care benefits. Liabilities relating to claims associated with these risks are estimated by considering historical claims experience, including frequency, severity, demographic factors and other actuarial assumptions. In estimating our liability for such claims, we periodically analyze our historical trends, including loss development, and apply appropriate loss development

factors to the incurred costs associated with the claims with the assistance of external actuarial consultants. While we do not expect the amounts ultimately paid to differ significantly from our estimates, our reserves and corresponding expenses could be affected if future claim experience differs significantly from historical trends and actuarial assumptions.

Taxes

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, the amount of taxes currently payable or refundable are accrued and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences of temporary differences that currently exist between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of our assets and liabilities.

Valuation allowances are established against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the realization of those deferred tax assets will not occur. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, the ability to produce future taxable income, tax planning strategies available and recent financial operations. In projecting future taxable income, we begin with historical results adjusted for the results of discontinued operations and changes in accounting policies and incorporate assumptions, including the amount of future federal and state pretax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates in effect in the years when those temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred taxes from a change in tax rate is recognized through income tax provision within the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Incomeoperations in the period that includes the enactment date of the change.

Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future. The Tax Act that was enacted on December 22, 2017 reduced the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. During the year end December 31, 2018, the Company recognized a $0.8 million benefit due to timing provision to return adjustments which impacted deferred balances at the 35% rate that were then revalued at the lower corporate rate. See Note 13, Income Taxes, for additional information.

A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. We recognize tax liabilities for uncertain tax positions and adjust these liabilities when our judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available.

Our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid. We are subject to income taxes in the United States, which includes numerous state and local jurisdictions. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the income tax expense.

Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts of our long-term debt, including the Term Loan and our ABL Revolver as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, approximate fair value due to the variable rate nature of the agreements. The carrying amounts of the obligations associated with our operating and finance leases as well as our vehicle and equipment notes approximate fair value as of December 31, 2019 and 2018. Our Senior Notes are not recorded at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 9, Fair Value Measurements, for estimated fair value of the Senior Notes, assessed by utilizing third-party quotes derived from market pricing. All debt classifications represent Level 2 fair value measurements.

Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value based on observable market information and appropriate valuation methods. Contingent consideration liabilities arise from future earnout payments to the sellers associated with certain acquisitions and are based on predetermined calculations of certain future results. These future payments are estimated by considering various factors, including business risk and projections. The contingent consideration liabilities are measured at fair value by discounting estimated future payments to their net present value using the appropriate weighted average cost of capital (WACC).

Item 7A.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our outstanding variable rate debt. As of December 31, 2017,2019, we had approximately $298.5$198.3 million outstanding on the term loan under our Senior Secured Credit Agreement,Term Loan, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, no outstanding borrowings on the ABL Revolver and $0.5$0.1 million outstanding under various capitalfinance leases subject to variable interest rates. Our two interest rate swaps, effectivelyeach with an associated floor, combine to reduce our variable rate debt by $100.0 million, and therefore total variable rate debt exposedexposure to market risks totaled $199.0on our Term Loan by $196.0 million as of December 31, 2017.2019. As a result, total variable rate debt of $4.1 million was exposed to market risks as of December 31, 2019. A hypothetical one percentage point increase (decrease) in interest rates on our variable rate debt would increase (decrease) our annual interest expense by approximately $2.0 million.

$41 thousand. Our Senior Notes accrued interest at a fixed rate of 5.75%.

For variable rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair value of the debt instrument, but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. We did not utilize swaps, forward or option contracts on interest rates or commodities, or other types of derivative financial instruments during 2016 or 2015. We have not entered into and currently do not hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

LIBOR is used as a reference rate for our Term Loan and our interest rate swap agreements we use to hedge our interest rate exposure. In 2017, the FCA announced that it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021, and it is unclear whether new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established. Our Term Loan Agreement was amended on November 30, 2017 to include a mechanism to establish an alternative Eurodollar rate if certain circumstances arise such that LIBOR may no longer be used. Additionally, our ABL Credit Agreement includes a provision related to the potential discontinuance of LIBOR to be replaced with one or more Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) values or another alternate benchmark rate. However, if LIBOR ceases to exist after 2021, the interest rates under the alternative rate could be higher than LIBOR. In addition, the value of derivative instruments tied to LIBOR could also be impacted if LIBOR is limited or discontinued. We continue to review the impact the LIBOR
phase-out
will have on the Company.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets ofInstalled Building Products, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2017,2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2017,2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017,2019, based on criteria established in
Internal Control Integrated Framework (2013)
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 28, 2018,27, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Change in Accounting Principle
As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842)
, using the modified retrospective approach.
Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures includeincluded examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Revenue on certain contracts recognized over time – Refer to Notes 2 and 3 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company recognizes revenue from the majority of its installation contracts when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. For contracts that are not complete at the reporting date (“uncompleted contracts”), the Company recognizes revenue over time utilizing a cost-to-cost input method, as the Company believes this represents the best measure of when goods and services are transferred to the customer. When this method is used, the Company estimates the cost to complete individual contracts and records as revenue that portion of the total contract price that is considered complete based on the relationship of costs incurred to date to total anticipated costs. Under the cost-to-cost method, the estimated costs to complete each contract requires judgment and can change throughout the duration of a contract due to contract modifications and other factors impacting job completion. The costs related to earned revenue include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools and repairs.
The Company’s estimation process for determining revenues for uncompleted contracts accounted for under the cost-to-cost approach is based upon historical experience, the professional judgment and knowledge of the Company’s project management, operational and financial professionals, and an assessment of the key underlying factors, such as the value of executed contracts, change orders, and related contract costs, that may impact the revenues and costs of uncompleted contracts.
Given the judgments necessary to estimate the relationship between executed contract value and contract costs, auditing the amount of revenue recognized for uncompleted contracts involves a high degree of auditor judgment.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to estimated revenue recognized on uncompleted contracts included the following, among others:
We tested the effectiveness of the Company’s controls over the determination of uncompleted contract revenue, including those over estimated total costs and revenues recognized through performance obligations.
We inquired of project managers, observed selected projects, and evaluated the reasonableness of management’s ability to accurately estimate costs by comparing incurred contract costs on uncompleted contracts to management’s projections.
We compared accounting records to executed contracts and change orders to verify accuracy of contract values in the Company’s estimates.
We considered the impact of change orders and other related contract costs that may impact the determination of revenue and estimated costs to completion.
We tested the mathematical accuracy of the Company’s calculation of revenue recognized over time.
We selected a sample of contract costs incurred as of December 31, 2019, agreed the costs to supplier invoices or other supporting documents, and evaluated whether the costs were properly allocated to the contracts included in management’s calculation of revenue recognized over time.
We developed an expectation of revenue for uncompleted contracts with remaining performance obligations as of December 31, 2019 based on (1) consideration of incurred contract costs and (2) results realized by the Company on completed contracts. We compared this expectation to the Company’s revenue recognized on uncompleted contracts at December 31, 2019.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates
, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities atin the date of theconsolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the revenue, costs and reserves established under thepercentage-of-completion method, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, valuation of the reporting unit, valuation of acquired intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets and other long-lived assets, share-based compensation, reserves for general liability and workers’ compensation and medical insurance. accompanying notes.
Management believes the accounting estimates are appropriate and reasonably determined; however, due to the inherent uncertainties in making these estimates, actual amounts could differ from such estimates.

INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly-liquid investments purchased with original term to maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We had $55.6$99.2 million and $69.8 million of cash equivalents as of December 31, 20172019 and zero cash equivalents as of December 31, 2016.2018, respectively. Substantially all cash is held in banks providing FDIC coverage of $0.25 million per depositor.

Revenue and Cost Recognition

Revenue

On January 1, 2018, we adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, “Revenue from the sale and installation of products is recognized when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. We recognize revenue using either the completed contract method or thepercentage-of-completion method of accounting, depending primarily on length of time required to complete the contract. The completed contract method is used for short-term contracts for which financial position and results of operations reported on the completed-contract basis would not vary materially from those resulting from use of thepercentage-of-completion method. Revenue from the sale and installation of products is recognized net of adjustments and discounts and, for revenueContracts with Customers,” using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts that were not completed contract methodas of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting atunder Topic 605. See Note 3, Revenue Recognition, for the time the installation is complete. When thepercentage-of-completion method is used, we estimate the costs to complete individual contracts and record asdetailed revenue that portion of the total contract price that is considered complete based on the relationship of costs incurred to date to total anticipated costs (the cost-to-cost approach). The costs of earned revenue include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools and repairs. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.

Accounting Policy for recognition policy.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether we have elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria
5

INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. We may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of our risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or we elect not to apply hedge accounting.

See Note 10, Derivatives and Hedging, for additional information on our accounting policy for derivative instruments and hedging activities.

Investment Policy

Marketable securities
with
original maturities longer than three months but less than one year from the balance sheetsettlement date are classified as investments within current assets. These investments consist of highly liquid investment grade instruments primarily including corporate bonds and commercial paper. Investments for which we have the ability and positive intent to hold to maturity are carried at amortized cost. The difference between the acquisition costs and face values of
held-to-maturity
investments is amortized over the remaining term of the investments and added to or subtracted from the acquisition cost and interest income. As of December 31, 2017,2019, all of our investments were classified as
held-to-maturity.

Business Combinations

The purchase price for business combinations is allocated to the estimated fair values of acquired tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill and assumed liabilities, where applicable. Additionally, we recognize

INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

customer relationships, trademarks and trade names, backlog and

non-competition
agreements as identifiable intangible assets. These assets are recorded at fair value as of the transaction date. The fair value of these intangibles is determined primarily using the income approach and using current industry information which involves significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). These inputs include projected sales, margin and tax rate.

At times, the total purchase price for a business combination could be less than the estimated fair values of acquired tangible and intangible assets. In these cases, we record a gain on bargain purchase within other expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income rather than goodwill in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Accounts Receivable

We account for trade receivables based on amounts billed to customers. Past due receivables are determined based on contractual terms. We do not accrue interest on any of our trade receivables.

Retainage receivables represent the amount retained by our customers to ensure the quality of the installation and is received after satisfactory completion of each installation project. Management regularly reviews aging of retainage receivables and changes in payment trends and records an allowance when collection of amounts due are considered at risk. Amounts retained by project owners under construction contracts and included in accounts receivable were $23.1$33.4 million and $10.3$28.0 million as of December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Credit risk is our risk of financial loss from the
non-performance
of a contractual obligation on the part of our counterparty. Such risk arises principally from our receivables from customers and cash and bank balances. Substantially all of our trade accounts receivable are from entities engaged in residential and commercial construction. We perform periodic credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition. The general credit
risk of our
counterparties
is not considered to be significant. In addition, no individual customer made up more than 3%

2017.

Inventories

Inventories consist of insulation, waterproofing materials, garage doors, rain gutters, window blinds, shower doors, mirrors, closet shelving and other products. We install these products but do not manufacture them. We value inventory at each balance sheet date to ensure that it is carried at the lower of cost or marketnet realizable value with cost determined using the
first-in,
first-out
(“FIFO”) method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable cost of completion, disposal and transportation. As of December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, substantially all inventory was finished goods. Inventory provisions are recorded to reduce inventory to the lower of cost or marketnet realizable value for obsolete or slow moving inventory based on assumptions about future demand and marketability of products, the impact of new product introductions, inventory levels and turns, product spoilage, and specific identification of items such as product discontinuance, engineering/material changes, or regulatory-related changes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. We provide for depreciation and amortization of property and equipment using the straight-line method over the expected useful lives of the assets. Expected useful lives of property and equipment vary but generally are the shorter of lease life or five years for vehicles and leasehold improvements, three to
five years
for furniture, fixtures and equipment and 30 years for buildings.

Major renewals and improvements are capitalized. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recorded.

Goodwill

Goodwill results from business combinations and represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of acquired tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets. Annually, on October 1, or if conditions indicate an earlier review is necessary, we either perform a quantitative test or assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount and if it is necessary to perform the quantitative
two-step
goodwill impairment test. If we perform the quantitative test, we compare the carrying value of the reporting unit to an estimate of the reporting unit’s fair value to identify potential impairment. The estimate of the reporting unit’s fair value is determined by weighting a discounted cash flow model and a market-related model using current industry information that involve significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). In determining the estimated future cash flow, we consider and apply certain estimates and judgments, including current and projected future levels of income based on management’s plans, business trends, prospects, market and economic conditions and market-participant considerations. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, a second step is performed to determine the amount of the potential goodwill impairment. If impaired, goodwill is written down to its estimated implied fair value.

Impairment of Other Intangible and Long-Lived Assets

Other intangible assets consist of customer relationships, backlog,
non-competition
agreements and business trademarks and trade names. Amortization of finite lived intangible assets is recorded to reflect the pattern of economic benefits based on projected revenues over their respective estimated useful lives (customer
relationships – eight to 15 years,
non-competition
agreements – one to
five years
and business trademarks and trade names – eighttwo to 15 years). We do not have any indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill.

We review long-lived assets and intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of an asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount. When impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. Assets to be disposed of are recorded at the lower of net book value or fair marketnet realizable value less cost to sell at the date management commits to a plan of disposal. There was no0 impairment loss for the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015.

general liability insurance program is considered a high retention program whereby we are responsible for the cost of claims up to approximately $2.0 million, subject to an aggregate cap of $8.0 million. IfOur vehicle liability insurance program is considered a high deductible program whereby we are responsible for the cost of claims under approximately $1.0 million. In each case, if we do not pay these claims, our general liability insurance carrier iscarriers are required to make these payments to the claimants on our behalf. Prior to the claim year beginning October 1, 2015, our general liability insurance program has a self-incurred retention (“SIR”) of $0.4 million whereby we continue to be responsible for all claims below the SIR and the insurance company continues to be responsible for all liabilities above the SIR. The liabilities represent our best estimate of our costs, using generally accepted actuarial reserving methods, of the ultimate obligations for reported claims plus those incurred but not reported for all claims incurred through December 31, 20172019 and 2016.2018. We establish case reserves for reported claims using case-basis evaluation of the underlying claims data and we update as information becomes known. We regularly monitor the potential for changes in estimates, evaluate our insurance accruals and adjust our recorded provisions.

The assumptions underlying the ultimate costs of existing claim losses are subject to a high degree of unpredictability, which can affect the liability recorded for such claims. For example, variability in inflation rates of health care costs inherent in workers’ compensation claims can affect the ultimate costs. Similarly, changes in legal trends and interpretations, as well as a change in the nature and method of how claims are settled, can affect ultimate costs. Our estimates of liabilities incurred do not anticipate significant changes in historical trends for these variables and any changes could have a considerable effect on future claim costs and currently recorded liabilities.

We carry insurance for a number of risks, including, but not limited to, workers’ compensation, general liability, vehicle liability, property and our obligation for employee-related health care benefits. Liabilities relating to claims associated with these risks are estimated by considering historical claims experience, including frequency, severity, demographic factors and other actuarial assumptions. In estimating our liability for such claims, we periodically analyze our historical trends, including loss development, and apply appropriate loss development factors to the incurred costs associated with the claims with the assistance of external actuarial consultants. While we do not expect the amounts ultimately paid to differ significantly from our estimates, our reserves and corresponding expenses could be affected if future claim experience differs significantly from historical trends and actuarial assumptions.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are generally expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was approximately $3.2$3.9 million, $3.0$3.8 million and $2.3$3.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015,2017, respectively, and is included in selling expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs and debt issuance costs combined, totaling $6.8$8.2 million and $1.7$6.4 million, net of accumulated amortization as of December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, respectively, are amortized over the term of the related debt on a straight-line basis which approximates the effective interest method. The deferred financing costs are included in other
non-current
assets while the debt issuance costs are included in long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, respectively. The related amortization expense of these costs combined was $1.1$1.2 million, $0.4$1.2 million and $0.3$1.1 million and is included in interest

For additional information on our debt instruments, see Note 6,7, Long-Term Debt.

Leases
On January 1, 2019, we adopted the new accounting standard ASU
2016-02,
“Leases,” which requires substantially all leases, with the exception of leases with a term of one year or less, to be recorded on the balance sheet as a lease liability measured as the present value of the future lease payments with a corresponding
right-of-use
asset. This ASU also requires disclosures designed to give financial statement users information on the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows. See Note 8, Leases, for further information regarding our lease accounting policies.
Share-Based Compensation

Our share-based compensation program is designed to attract and retain employees while also aligning employees’ interests with the interests of our stockholders. Restricted stock awards are periodically granted to certain employees, officers and
non-employee
members of our board of directors under the stockholder-approved 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan.

Equity-based awards:

Certain of our stock awards are deemed to be equity-based with a service condition and do not contain a market or performance condition with the exception of performance-based awards granted to certain officers and performance-based restricted stock units. Fair value of the
non-performance-based
awards to employees and officers is measured at the grant date and amortized to expense over the vesting period of the awards using the straight-line attribution method for all service-based awards with a graded vesting feature. This fair value is reduced by assumed forfeitures and adjusted for actual forfeitures until vesting. We also issue performance stock-basedperformance-based stock awards to certain officers under our 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The performance-based compensation expense is recorded over the requisite service period using the graded-vesting method for the entire award. Performance-based stock awards are accounted for at fair value at date of grant. We also periodically grant restrictedperformance-based stock units to certain employees under the stockholder-approved 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan. These units convert to shares upon meeting time- and performance-based requirements.

Liability-based awards:Certain of our stock awards represent a predominately-fixed monetary amount that is to be settled with a variable number of shares. These awards contain both time and performance requirements, and are deemed to be liability-based, which requires that were-measure to reflect their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The change in fair value each reporting period is recorded as compensation cost, with a corresponding increase or decrease in our share-based liability, either immediately or over the remaining service period depending on the vested status of the award.

Compensation expense for both equity and liability-based restrictedperformance-based stock units is recorded based on an assessment each reporting period of the probability that certain performance goals will be met during the contingent vesting period. If performance goals are not probable to occur, no compensation expense will be recognized. If performance goals that were previously deemed probable are not or are not expected to be met, the previously recognized compensation cost related to such performance goals will be reversed. Employees and officers are subject to tax at the vesting date based on the market price of the shares on that date, or on the grant date if an election is made.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, the amount of taxes currently payable or refundable are accrued and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences of temporary differences that currently exist between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of our assets and liabilities.

Valuation allowances are established against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the realization of those deferred tax assets will not occur. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including

INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, the ability to produce future taxable income, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In projecting future taxable income, we factor in historical results and changes in accounting policies and incorporate assumptions, including the amount of future federal and state pretax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates we use to manage the underlying businesses.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates in effect in the years when those temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred taxes from a change in tax rate is recognized through operations in the period that includes the enactment date of the change. Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) that was enacted on December 22, 2017 reducesreduced the USU.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. TheDuring the year end December 31, 2017, the Company recognized a $3.8 million tax benefit as a result of revaluing the ending net deferred tax liabilities from 35% to the newly enacted U.S. corporate income tax rate of 21%., and also recognized a $0.8 million benefit in 2018 due to timing provision to return adjustments which impacted deferred balances at the 35% rate that were then revalued at the lower corporate rate. See Note 12,13, Income Taxes, for additional information.

A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more likely than not recognition threshold to be recognized.

We recognize tax liabilities for uncertain tax positions and adjust these liabilities when our judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Liabilities related to uncertain tax positions are recorded in other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the current estimate of the tax liabilities. These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense and the effective tax rate in the period in which the new information becomes available. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recognized within income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Accrued interest and penalties are recognized in other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid. We are subject to income taxes in the United States, which includes numerous state and local jurisdictions. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and the reserve for unrecognized tax benefits.

Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounts receivable, accounts payable, cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts of our long-term debt, including the term loan, delayed draw term loan and revolving line of credit under the current and previous credit agreements approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 due to the variable rate nature of the agreements. The carrying amount of the obligations associated with our capital leases and vehicle and equipment notes approximate fair value as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 because we have incurred the obligations within recent fiscal years when the interest rate markets have been low and stable despite the changes in the interest rate environment in 2017. Refinancing these obligations at current market rates would result in similar balances. All debt classifications represent Level 2 fair value measurements.

Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
To address concerns over the cost and complexity of the

quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

NOTE 3 – REVENUE RECOGNITION
Our revenues are derived primarily through contracts with customers whereby we install insulation and other complementary building products and are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from Contractsboth parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. An insignificant portion of our sales, primarily retail sales, is accounted for on a
point-in-time
basis when the sale occurs, adjusted accordingly for any return provisions. We do offer assurance-type warranties on certain of our installed products and services that do not represent a separate performance obligation and, as such, do not impact the timing or extent of revenue recognition.

INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For contracts that are not complete at the reporting date, we recognize revenue over time utilizing a cost-to-cost input method as we believe this represents the best measure of when goods and services are transferred to the customer. When this method is used, we estimate the costs to complete individual contracts and record as revenue that portion of the total contract price that is considered complete based on the relationship of costs incurred to date to total anticipated costs. Under the
cost-to-cost
method, the use of estimated costs to complete each contract is a significant variable in the process of determining recognized revenue, requires judgment and can change throughout the duration of a contract due to contract modifications and other factors impacting job completion. The costs of earned revenue include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools and repairs. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.
Our long-term contracts can be subject to modification to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. We consider contract modifications to exist when the modification either creates new, or changes the existing, enforceable rights and obligations. Most of our contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract due to the significant integration service provided in the context of the contract and are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price and our measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative
catch-up
basis.
Payment terms typically do not exceed 30 days for short-term contracts and typically do not exceed 60 days for long-term contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” ASU2014-09customers. All contracts are billed either contractually or as work is performed. Billing on our long-term contracts occurs primarily on a monthly basis throughout the contract period whereby we submit invoices for customer payment based on actual or estimated costs incurred during the billing period. On certain of our long-term contracts the customer may withhold payment on an invoice equal to a percentage of the invoice amount, which will be subsequently paid after satisfactory completion of each installation project. This amount is referred to as retainage and related subsequently issued amendments set forth a newis common practice in the construction industry, as it allows for customers to ensure the quality of the service performed prior to full payment. Retainage receivables are classified as current or long-term assets based on the expected time to project completion.
We disaggregate our revenue from contracts with customers by end market and product, as we believe it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The following tables present our revenues disaggregated by end market and product (in thousands):

Contract Assets and Liabilities
Our contract assets consist of unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts when the
cost-to-cost
method of revenue recognition modelis utilized and revenue recognized, based on costs incurred, exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Our contract assets are recorded in other current assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our contract liabilities consist of customer deposits and billings in excess of revenue recognized, based on costs incurred and are included in other current liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The difference between contract assets and contract liabilities as of December 31, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018 is primarily the result of timing differences between our performance of obligations under contracts and customer payments. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we recognized $7.2 million of revenue that requires identifying the contract(s) with a customer, identifying the performance obligationswas included in the contract determiningliability balance at December 31, 2018. We did

t recognize any impairment losses on our receivables and contract assets during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocating the transaction price to the performance obligationsof contracts for which work has not been performed and recognizing the revenue upon satisfaction of performance obligations. In July 2015, the FASB voted to defer the application of the provisions of this standard for public companies until annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those reporting periods. We commenced our evaluation of the impact of ASC 606 in late 2016, by evaluating its impact on selected contracts. Based on our initial review of those select contracts, we developed a project plan to evaluate numerous contracts across our businessexcludes unexercised contract options and assess the internal control structure in order to adopt ASC 606 on January 1, 2018. We have periodically briefed our Audit Committee on our progress made towards adoption.potential modifications. As of December 31, 2017, we have completed our assessment on2019, the applicabilityaggregate amount of the standard on accounting fortransaction price allocated to remaining uncompleted contracts with customers. The standard will result in a changewas $90.7 million. We expect to the timing of revenue recognition for certain of our contracts that, under ASC 605, we currentlysatisfy remaining performance obligations and recognize revenue on a performance obligation level as each obligation is completed whereas, under ASC 606, we will recognize revenue associated withsubstantially all of these uncompleted contracts over time as service is performed and the transfernext 18 months.

Table of control occurs based on apercentage-of-completion method using input methods as a measure of progress. We do not expect the impact on our revenue recognition to be material for our contracts that are currently recognized under the existing percentage-of-completion method of accounting, due to the inherent similarities of the over time methodology of revenue recognition to percentage-of-completion. We adopted the new standard on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach, and as such will recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on January 1, 2018. The estimated adjustment to our opening retained earnings on January 1, 2018, as a result of implementation of this ASU, is estimated to be approximately $3.0 million.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” This update amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU2016-02 requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. For public business entities, this update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted as of the standard’s issuance date. We have not completed our assessment, but we expect the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Information about our undiscounted future lease payments and the timing of those payments is in Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, in our Form10-K. We will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU amends the accounting for credit losses onavailable-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. In addition, these amendments require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets, including trade accounts receivable, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and

Practical Expedients and Exemptions
We generally expense sales commissions and other incremental costs of obtaining a contract when incurred because the amortization period is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periodsusually one year or less. Sales commissions are recorded within those fiscal years. We are evaluating whether this ASU will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows: Clarification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (Topic 230).” This ASU addresses the diversity in practice related to the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows by adding or clarifying guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. We have determined that this update addresses one issue that specifically impacts us, which is the classification of contingent consideration payments made after a business combination. We adopted the new provision on January 1, 2018 and as such will classify contingent consideration payments in excess of the recorded contingent liability not made soon after the acquisition date as operating activitiesselling expenses on the cash flow statement. Cash payments made soon afterConsolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

We do not disclose the acquisition date will be classified as investing activities.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accountingvalue of unsatisfied performance obligations for Hedging Activities.” This ASU better aligns a company’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships and makes certain improvements to simplify the applicationcontracts with an original expected length of hedge accounting guidance.

Credit Facilities
In
December 2019, we amended and restated our $
400
 million
, seven-year
term loan facility due April 2025 (the “Term Loan”) under our credit agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”) which provides for, dated as of April 13, 2017 (as previously amended by the First Amendment thereto dated November 30, 2017 and by the Second Amendment thereto dated June 19, 2018). The
amended
Term Loan (i) effects a seven-year $300.0 repricing of the interest rate applicable to the term loans thereunder from LIBOR plus
2.50
% to LIBOR plus
2.25
% and (ii) replaces Royal Bank of Canada with Bank of America, N.A. as the administrative agent and collateral agent thereunder. As of December 31, 2019, we had $
198.3
million, term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) and annet of unamortized debt issuance costs, due on our Term Loan. The
amended
Term Loan also has a margin of
1.50
% in the case of base rate loans.
In September 2019, we entered into a new asset-based lending credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement” and together with the Term Loan). The ABL Credit Agreement the “Senior Secured Credit Agreements”) which provides for up to approximately $100.0 million with a sublimit up to $50.0 million for the issuance of letters ofan asset-based lending credit facility (the “ABL Revolver” and together) of up to $200.0 million with
a five-year m
aturity,
which replaced the Term Loan, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”), which may be reduced or increased pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement. The borrowing base for the ABL Revolver, which determinesCompany’s previous revolving credit facility. Borrowing availability under the facility,ABL Revolver is based on a percentage of the value of certain assets securing the Company’s obligations and those of the subsidiary guarantors thereunder. In connection with the Amended and Restated Term Loan, we entered into a Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as ABL Agent for the lenders under the ABL Credit Agreement, and Bank of America, N.A., as Term Loan Agent for the lenders under the Amended and Restated Term Loan. Including outstanding letters of credit, our remaining availability under the ABL Revolver as of December 31, 2019 was $161.3 million.
All of the obligations under the Term Loan and ABL Revolver are guaranteed by all of the Company’s existing restricted subsidiaries and will be guaranteed by the Company’s future restricted subsidiaries. Additionally, all obligations under the Term Loan and ABL Revolver, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors, undersubject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, including a first-priority security interest in such assets that constitute ABL Priority Collateral, as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement. Proceeds from the Senior Secured Credit Facilities were used to repayAgreement, and a second-priority security interest in full all amounts outstanding under the Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit and Security Agreement”), dated as of February 29, 2016, by and among the Company and the lenders named therein.

Thesuch assets that constitute Term Loan was amended on November 30, 2017 (the “Amendment”) to refinance the total principal amount ofPriority Collateral, as defined in the Term Loan outstanding underAgreement.

The ABL Revolver bears interest at either the Term Loan Agreement immediately prior to the effective date of the Amendment,Eurodollar rate or an aggregate principal amount of $299.3 million, on substantially the same terms as the initial term loan, except for (i) a decrease in the Applicable Margins (as defined below) applicable to the base rate and Eurodollar rate loans, (ii) an increase in(which approximated the cap on permitted indebtedness related to capital expenditures other than capital lease obligations and (iii) the inclusion of a mechanism to establish an alternative Eurodollar rate if certain circumstances have arisen such that the London Interbank Offered Rate may no longer be used. The ABL Credit Agreement was amended in December 2017 to revise the formula for maximum indebtedness incurred by the Company while subject to the ABL Credit Agreement. The Term Loan amortizes in quarterly principal payments of approximately $0.8 million, with any remaining unpaid balances due on April 15, 2024, which is the maturity date. Loans incurred under the ABL Revolver will have a final maturity of April 13, 2022.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Term Loan will be subject to mandatorypre-payments equal to (i) 100% of the net cash proceeds from issuances or incurrence of debt by the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries (other than with respect to certain permitted indebtedness); (ii) 100% of the net cash proceeds from certain sales or dispositions of assets by the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries in excess of a certain amount and

Vehicle and Equipment Notes

We are party to a Master Loan and Security Agreement (“Master Loan and Security Agreement”), a Master Equipment Lease Agreement (“Master Equipment Agreement”) and one or more Master Loan Agreements (“
(“Master Loan Agreements” and together with the Master Loan and Security Agreement and Master Equipment Agreement the “Master Loan Equipment Agreements”) with various lenders to provide financing for the purpose of purchasing or leasing vehicles and equipment used in the normal course of business. Each financing arrangement under these agreements constitutes a separate note and obligation. Vehicles and equipment purchased or leased under each financing arrangement serve as collateral for the note applicable to such financing arrangement. Regular payments are due under each note for a period of typically
60
consecutive months after the incurrence of the obligation. The specific terms of each note are based on specific criteria, including the type of vehicle or equipment and the market interest rates at the time.
No
termination date applies to these agreements. One of these Master Loan Agreements, entered into in November 2017, is with US Bank and provides for up to $100.0 million. The facility is subject to a60-month term with interest rates being set at the time of funding. As of December 31, 2017, substantially all2019, approximately $

NOTE 8 – LEASES
On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842, “Leases” which, among other changes, requires us to record liabilities classified as operating leases on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets along with a corresponding
right-of-use
asset. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under Topic 842, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 840. We elected the package of practical expedients available for expired or existing contracts, which allowed us to carryforward our historical assessments of whether contracts are or contain leases, lease classification tests and treatment of initial direct costs. We also elected to not separate lease components from
non-lease
components for all fixed payments, and we exclude variable lease payments in the measurement of
right-of-use
assets and lease obligations.
Upon adoption of ASC 842, we recorded a $44.9 million increase in other assets, a $1.4 million decrease to other current assets, a $1.0 million decrease to other current liabilities and a $44.5 million increase to operating lease obligations. These adjustments are the result of assigning a
right-of-use
asset and related lease liability to our operating leases. We did not record any cumulative effect adjustments to opening retained earnings, and adoption of the lease standard had no impact to cash from or used in operating, financing, or investing activities on our consolidated cash flow statements.
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Most of our operating leases do not provide an implicit rate so we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of future payments. We lease various assets in the ordinary course of business as follows: warehouses to store our materials and perform staging activities for certain products we install; various office spaces for selling and administrative activities to support our business; and certain vehicles and equipment to facilitate our operations, including, but not limited to, trucks, forklifts and office equipment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet as we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Most lease agreements include one or more renewal options, all of which are at our sole discretion. Generally, future renewal options that have not been executed as of the balance sheet date are excluded from

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Values

Fair value is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

In many cases, a valuation technique used to measure fair value includes inputs from multiple levels of the fair value hierarchy. The lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the entire fair value

measurement in the hierarchy. During the periods presented, there were no transfers between fair value hierarchical levels.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets, specifically other intangible and long-lived assets, are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in periods subsequent to initial recognition. Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 20172019 and 20162018 are categorized based on the lowest level of significant input to the valuation. The assets are measured at fair value when our impairment assessment indicates a carrying value for each of the assets in excess of the asset’s estimated fair value. Undiscounted cash flows, a Level 3 input, are utilized in determining estimated fair values. During each of the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015,2017, we did not record any impairments on these assets required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. See the “Impairment of Other Intangible and Long-Lived Assets” caption of Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies, for more information.

Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts of certain long-term debt, including the Term Loan and ABL Revolver as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, approximate fair value due to the variable rate nature of the agreements. The carrying amounts of our operating lease
right-of-use
assets and the obligations associated with our operating and finance leases as well as our vehicle and equipment notes approximate fair value as of December 31, 2019 and 2018. All debt classifications represent Level 2 fair value measurements.
Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value based on observable market information and appropriate valuation methods. Contingent consideration liabilities arise from future earnout payments to the sellers associated with certain acquisitions and are based on predetermined calculations of certain future results. These future payments are estimated by considering various factors, including business risk and projections. The contingent consideration liabilities are measured at fair value by discounting estimated future payments to their net present value using the appropriate weighted average cost of capital (WACC). The fair values of financial assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and not described above were as follows (in thousands):

 – DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Derivatives and Hedging Activities
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We manage exposure to a wide variety of business and operational risks through our core business activities. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by overseeing the amount, sources and duration of debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we have entered into derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to interest rate movements that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and known or expected cash payments principally related to our investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Our purpose for using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. During the year ended December 31, 2019, such derivatives were used to hedge the
variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt. To accomplish these objectives, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense, net as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. Over the next twelve months, we estimate that an additional $0.2$1.6 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense, net.

Additionally, we do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and we currently do not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has2019, we have not posted any collateral related to these agreements.

accrue for the estimated losses occurring from both asserted and unasserted claims. Workers’ compensation liability for premiums is included in other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Insurance claims and reserves include accruals of estimated settlements for known claims, as well as accruals of actuarial estimates of IBNR claims. In estimating these reserves, historical loss experience and judgments about the expected levels of costs per claim are considered. These claims are accounted for based on actuarial estimates of the undiscounted claims, including IBNR. We believe the use of actuarial methods to account for these liabilities provides a consistent and effective way to measure these highly judgmental accruals.

Workers’ compensation expense totaled $13.5$15.4 million, $12.1$12.8 million and $12.0$13.5 million

As of December 31, 2017,2019, we have recorded a deferred tax asset of $2.6$1.2 million reflecting the benefit of $10.6$5.4 million in federal and state income tax net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards, the earliest of which expires in 2030.

Valuation Allowance

We assess the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the existing deferred tax assets on a jurisdiction and by tax filing entity basis. A significant
piece of objective negative evidence evaluated is cumulative losses incurred over the most recent three-year period. Such objective evidence limits our ability to
consider
other subjective positive evidence such as our projections for future growth.

Based on this evaluation, a valuation allowance has been recorded as of December 31, 20172019 and 20162018 for the net deferred tax assets recorded on certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries. Such deferred tax assets relate primarily to net operating losses that are not more likely than not realizable. However, the amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could be adjusted if our estimate of future taxable income during the carryforward period changes, or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present. Additional weight may be given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth in this situation.

Unrecognized tax benefits of $1.5$2.8 million at December 31, 20172019 would affect the effective tax rate. Interest expense and penalties accrued related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 20172019 are $0.1$0.4 million.

We expect a decrease to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits (exclusive of penalties and interest) within the next twelve months of zero
0
to $1.1$2.0 million.

Determining uncertain tax positions and the related estimated amounts requires judgment and carry estimation risk. If future tax law changes or interpretations should come to light, or additional information should become known, our conclusions regarding unrecognized tax benefits may change.

Impacts of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act

The Tax Act was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, which had a positive impact on our 2017 effective tax rate due to the revaluation of our ending net deferred tax liabilities, and we expect it will have a positive impact on our effective tax rate in 2018 and subsequent years.

Income tax expense (benefit) decreased $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to 2016, due to the impact of the Tax Act. The Company recognized a $3.8 million tax benefit as a result of revaluing the ending net deferred tax liabilities from 35% to the newly enacted U.S. corporate income tax rate of 21%. The tax benefit was partially offset by tax expense of $0.4 million net amount for the revaluation of the uncertain tax positions and the valuation allowance.

The Company has recognized the tax impacts related to the revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and included these amounts in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. The ultimate impact may differ from these provisional amounts, possibly materially, due to, among other things, additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions the Company has made, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions the Company may take as a result of the Tax Act.

Other Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, various claims and litigation are asserted or commenced against us principally arising from contractual matters and personnel and employment disputes. In determining loss contingencies, management considers the likelihood of loss as well as the ability to reasonably estimate the amount of such loss or liability. An estimated loss is recorded when it is considered probable that such a liability has been incurred and when the
 amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. As litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, we cannot be

certain

that we will prevail in these matters. However, we do not believe that the ultimate outcome of any pending matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we entered into an agreement with one of our suppliers to purchase a portion of the insulation materials we utilize across our business. This agreement is effective January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2021 with a purchase obligation of $21.1 million for 2020 and $14.0 million for 2021. 
During the fourth quarter

and eight

business combinations during the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015,2017, respectively, as well as several insignificant
tuck-in
acquisitions merged into existing operations in 20172019,
2018 and 2015,2017, in which we acquired 100% of the voting equity interests in each acquired entity. Acquisition-related costs amounted to $3.9$2.1 million, $2.3$2.7 million and $1.1$3.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015,2017, respectively, and are included in Administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The goodwill to be recognized in conjunction with these business combinations represents the excess cost of the acquired entity over the net amount assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We expect to deduct $47.2$21.2 million of goodwill for tax purposes as a result of 20172019 acquisitions.

of each significant acquisition by year, including revenue and net income (loss) since date of acquisition, shown for the year of acquisition.

Contingent consideration is included as “seller obligations” in the above table or within “fair value of assets acquired” if subsequently paid during the period presented. These contingent payments consist primarily of amounts based on working capital calculations, earnouts based on performance andnon-compete agreements, all of whichthat are based onrecorded at fair value at the time of acquisition.acquisition, and/or
non-compete
agreements and amounts based on working capital calculations. When these payments are expected to be made over one year from the acquisition date, the contingent consideration is discounted to net present value using our weighted average cost of capital (WACC).

Further adjustments to the allocation for each acquisition still under its measurement period are expected as third-party or internal valuations are finalized, certain tax aspects of the transaction are completed, contingent consideration is settled, and customary post-closing reviews are concluded during the measurement period attributable to each individual business combination. As a result, insignificant adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired, and in some cases total purchase price, have been made to certain business combinations since the date of acquisition and future adjustments may be made through the end of each measurement period.

do not agree to the total gross increases of these assets as shown in Note 5,6, Goodwill and Intangibles, during the years ended December 31, 20172019, 2018 and 20162017 due to minor adjustments to goodwill for the allocation of certain acquisitions still under measurement, an immaterial goodwill reclassification in the year ended December 31, 20162017 related to the prior period, as well as other immaterial intangible assets added during the ordinary course of business. In addition, goodwill and intangibles increased during the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 20152017 due to various immaterialtuck-insmall acquisitions merged into existing operations that do not appear in the above tables.

The provisional amounts for Alpha originally reported in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included in our Quarterly Report on Form10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017 were adjusted to reflect the review and ongoing analysis of the fair value measurements. As a result of our continued evaluation during the measurement period, we increased goodwill by approximately $2.1 million, offset by a corresponding net reduction in various working capital accounts.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The provisional amounts for Columbia originally reported in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included in our Quarterly Report on Form10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2017 were adjusted to reflect the review and ongoing analysis of the fair value measurements. As a result of our continued evaluation during the measurement period, we increased goodwill by approximately $0.5 million and our seller obligations by approximately $0.4 million for an adjustment to the fair value of a working capital contingent liability. These adjustments, as well as various other insignificant adjustments, resulted in a total purchase price increase for Columbia of approximately $0.6 million as reflected within the above table and were within applicable measurement period guidelines.

The fair value of the net assets acquired, including identifiable intangible assets, relating to one of the 2015 business combinations included in the “Other” column in the above table was approximately $4.8 million, which exceeds the purchase price of $3.7 million. Accordingly, we recognized the excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired over purchase price paid of approximately $1.1 million as a gain on bargain purchase. The gain on bargain purchase is included in other income in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Prior to recognizing the gain, we reassessed the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination including consultation with our external valuation experts. Assets were valued using the same methodology as our other business combinations, including the use of a discounted cash flow model as well as several other factors. We believe we were able to acquire this entity for less than the fair value of its net assets due to an absence of multiple bidders combined with the significant improvement of our purchasing power.

Included in other noncurrent assets in the above table as of the year ended December 31, 2015 is an insurance receivable of $2.0 million and an indemnification asset in the amount of $1.7 million associated with the 2015 acquisition of BDI. These assets offset equal liabilities included in other long-term liabilities in the above table, which represent additional insurance reserves for which we may be liable. All amounts are measured at their acquisition date fair value. The indemnification asset has been reduced to $0.9 million as of December 31, 2017 due to an adjustment to an uncertain tax position related to this item.

NOTE 1617 – INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

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

Diluted net income per common share is calculated by adjusting weighted average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period, determined using the treasury stock method. Potential common stock is included in the diluted income per common share calculation when dilutive. The dilutive effect of outstanding restricted stock awards after application of the treasury stock method as of December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, 2016was 120 thousand, 122 thousand and 2015, was 117 thousand, 61 thousand and 36 thousand shares, respectively.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial

reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the

Table of Contents
design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process 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. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
