NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements of Apogee Enterprises, Inc. (we, us, our or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended March 2, 2019February 29, 2020. We use the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. All adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of quarterly operating results are reflected herein and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the ninethree-month period ended NovemberMay 30, 20192020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

COVID-19 considerations
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause volatility and uncertainty in global markets impacting worldwide economic activity. We have experienced some delays in commercial construction projects and orders as a result of COVID-19. In our Architectural Glass and Architectural Framing segments, orders have been delayed or have slowed, as customers and end markets face some uncertainty and delays in timing of work. In our Architectural Services segment, some construction site closures or project delays have occurred, and job sites have had to adjust to increased physical distancing and health-related precautions. Within our LSO segment, temporary closure of many retail locations resulted in the shutdown of our factories for most of the first quarter, in response to governmental “stay at home” directives. We have also been impacted by quarantine-related absenteeism among our workforce, resulting in labor and capacity constraints at some of our facilities. The extent to which COVID-19 will impact our business will depend on future developments and public health advancements, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. However, towards the end of our first quarter and into the second quarter, we began to see some early signs of improvement, including the gradual reopening of retailers, moderating project delays and fewer workforce absences.

Furthermore, in response to COVID-19, we have implemented a variety of countermeasures to promote the health and safety of our employees during this pandemic, including health screening, physical distancing practices, enhanced cleaning, use of personal protective equipment, business travel restrictions, and remote work capabilities, in addition to quarantine-related paid leave and other employee assistance programs.

Adoption of new accounting standards
AtIn the beginning of fiscal 2020,current quarter, we adopted the guidance in ASC 842, Leases, following a modified retrospective approach and elected not to restate prior periods. Adoption of the new standard resulted in recording operating lease assets and liabilities of approximately $50 million as of March 3, 2019 and did not materially impact our consolidated net earnings and cash flows. Refer to additional information in Note 7.

Accounting standards not yet adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial InstrumentsInstruments., which revises The guidance provides for the accounting for credit lossesa new impairment model on financial instruments within its scope. The new standard introduces an approachwhich is based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses, on certain types of financial instruments and modifieswhich was applied following a modified retrospective approach. Additionally, the new guidance makes targeted improvements to the impairment model for certain available-for-sale debt securities. This ASU is effective for our fiscal year 2021. Entities are required to applysecurities, including eliminating the standard's provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings asconcept of "other than temporary" from that model. The portion of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. We do not expect therelated to available-for-sale debt securities was adopted following a prospective approach. The adoption of this ASU todid not have a significant impact on our consolidatedearnings or financial statements.condition. Refer to additional disclosures in Notes 2 and 4.

Subsequent events
We have evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date of this filing and determined that there were no subsequent events that required recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.statements other than as described in Note 8.

Receivables
Trade and construction accounts receivable consist of amounts billed and due from customers. The amounts due are stated at their estimatedReceivables reflected in the financial statements represent the net realizable value. We maintain anamount expected to be collected. An allowance for doubtfulcredit losses is established based on expected losses. Expected losses are estimated by reviewing individual accounts, to provide forconsidering aging, financial condition of the estimated amountdebtor, recent payment history, current and forecast economic conditions and other relevant factors. Upon billing, aging of receivables is monitored until collection. An account is considered current when it is within agreed upon payment terms. An account is written off when it is determined that will not be collected. This allowancethe asset is based on an assessment of customer creditworthiness, historical payment experience and the age of outstanding receivables.no longer collectible. Retainage on construction contracts represents amounts withheld by our customers on long-term projects until the project reaches a level of completion where amounts are released.

Contract assets and liabilities
Contract assets consist of retainage, costs and earnings in excess of billings and other unbilled amounts typically generated when revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract liabilities consist of billings in excess of costs and earnings and other deferred revenue on contracts. Retainage is classified within receivables and deferred revenue is classified within other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.

The time period between when performance obligations are complete and when payment is due is not significant. In certain of our businesses that recognize revenue over time, progress billings follow an agreed-upon schedule of values, and retainage is withheld by the customer until the project reaches a level of completion where amounts are released.

Derivative instruments
In August 2019, we entered into an interest rate swap to hedge exposure to variability in cash flows from interest payments on our floating-rate revolving credit facility. As of NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, the interest rate swap contract had a notional value of $85$65 million.

We periodically enter into forward purchase foreign currency cash flow hedge contracts, generally with an original maturity date of less than one year, to hedge foreign currency exchange rate risk. As of NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, we held foreign exchange

forward contracts with a U.S. dollar notional value of $24.7$34.3 million, with the objective of reducing the exposure to fluctuations in the Canadian dollar and the Euro.

These derivative instruments are recorded within our consolidated balance sheets within other current assets and liabilities. Gains or losses associated with these instruments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Fair value measurements
Financial assets and liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement: Level 1 (unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities); Level 2 (observable market inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1); and Level 3 (unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data). We do not have any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities.

Money market funds and commercial paper
Fair value of money market funds was determined based on quoted prices for identical assets in active markets. Commercial paper was measured at fair value using inputs based on quoted prices for similar securities in active markets. These assets are included within cash and cash equivalents on our consolidated balance sheets.

Municipal and corporate bonds
Municipal and corporate bonds were measured at fair value based on market prices from recent trades of similar securities and are classified within our consolidated balance sheets as other current or other non-current assets based on maturity date.

Cash surrender value of life insurance and deferred compensation
Contracts insuring the lives of certain employees who are eligible to participate in certain non-qualified pension and deferred compensation plans are held in trust. Cash surrender value of the contracts is based on performance measurement funds that shadow the deferral investment allocations made by participants in certain deferred compensation plans. Changes in cash surrender value are recorded in other expense. The deferred compensation liability balances are valued based on amounts allocated by participants to the underlying performance measurement funds.

Derivative instruments
The interest rate swap is measured at fair value using unobservableother observable market inputs, based off of benchmark interest rates. Forward foreign exchange contracts are measured at fair value using unobservableother observable market inputs, such as quotations on forward foreign exchange points and foreign currency exchange rates. Derivative positions are primarily valued using standard calculations and models that use as their basis readily observable market parameters. Industry standard data providers are our primary source for forward and spot rate information for both interest and currency rates.


Nonrecurring fair value measurements
Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances. These include certain long-lived assets that are written down to estimated fair value when they are determined to be impaired, utilizing a valuation approach incorporating Level 3 inputs.

(1) During the quarter ended May 30, 2020, we recorded a $6.3 million increase to goodwill and corresponding increase to deferred tax liabilities to correct an immaterial error related to prior periods. The error was not material to any previously reported annual or interim consolidated financial statements.


We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually at our year-end, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the goodwill may not be recoverable. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we identified qualitative indicators of impairment, including a significant decline in our stock price and market capitalization, along with concerns resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic at four of our nine identified reporting units. Therefore, we performed a quantitative goodwill impairment evaluation as of May 30, 2020 at these four reporting units, EFCO Corporation ("EFCO"), Alumicor Limited ("Alumicor"), Sotawall Limited ("Sotawall") and Viracon, Inc ("Viracon").

Evaluating goodwill for impairment involves the determination of the fair value of each reporting unit in which goodwill is recorded using a qualitative or quantitative analysis. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a component of an operating segment for which discrete financial information is available and reviewed by management on a regular basis. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds the carrying value, goodwill impairment is not indicated.


We base our determination of fair value on a discounted cash flow methodology that involves significant judgment and projections of future performance. We also consider a market approach in our analysis by reviewing available data from recent transactions of comparable public companies when available. Assumptions about future revenues and expenses, capital expenditures and changes in working capital are based on the annual operating plan and long-term business plan for each reporting unit. These plans take into consideration numerous factors, including historical experience, current and future operational plans, anticipated future economic conditions and growth expectations for the industries and end markets in which we participate. These plans also take into consideration our assessment of risks inherent in our projections of future cash flows. Due to the inherent uncertainties involved in making estimates and assumptions, actual results may differ from those assumed in the forecasts. Inputs used to estimate these fair values included significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use and, therefore, the fair value assessments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. We derived the discount rates using a capital asset pricing model and analyzing published rates for industries relevant to the reporting units to estimate the cost of equity financing. We used discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainties inherent in the respective businesses and in the internally developed forecasts, updated for recent events.

Based on the results of the interim quantitative goodwill impairment analysis, the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and, therefore, goodwill impairment was not indicated as of May 30, 2020. We utilized a discount rate of 11.0 percent in determining the discounted cash flows for EFCO and Alumicor, and a discount rate of 10.4 percent in determining the discounted cash flows for Sotawall and Viracon. We utilized a long-term growth rate of 3.0 percent in our fair value analysis for all reporting units. While these discount rates have increased from the time of our annual goodwill impairment evaluation at year-end, impairment is not indicated at this time due to the long-term future performance expectations for these businesses.

We hold intangible assets for certain acquired trade names and trademarks which are determined to have indefinite useful lives. We evaluate the reasonableness of the useful life and test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually at our year-end, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we identified qualitative indicators of impairment, including deteriorating macroeconomic conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, we performed an interim impairment evaluation on indefinite-lived intangible assets as of May 30, 2020. If the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. If an impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount becomes the asset's new accounting basis.

Fair value is measured using the relief-from-royalty method. This method assumes the trade name or trademark has value to the
extent that the owner is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from the asset. This method requires
us to estimate the future revenue from the related asset, the appropriate royalty rate, and the weighted average cost of capital. The assessment of fair value involves significant judgment and projections about future performance. In determining the discounted future revenue in our fair value analysis, we utilized a discount rate of 11.5 percent for EFCO and Alumicor and a discount rate

of 10.9 percent for Sotawall. A royalty rate of 1.5 percent was utilized for Alumicor and EFCO and a royalty rate of 2.0 percent was utilized for Sotawall. We utilized a long-term growth rate of 3.0 percent in the fair value analysis for all reporting units. Based on our analysis, the fair value of each of our trade names and trademarks exceeded its carrying amount and impairment was not indicated. We continue to conclude that the useful life of our indefinite-lived intangible assets is appropriate. If future revenue were to fall below forecasted levels or if market conditions were to decline in a material or sustained manner, due to COVID-19 or otherwise, impairment could be indicated on one or more of our indefinite-lived intangible assets.

Amortization expense on definite-lived intangible assets was $5.7$1.8 million and $10.5$1.9 million for the nine-monththree-month periods ended NovemberMay 30, 20192020 and DecemberJune 1, 2018,2019, respectively. Amortization expense of other identifiable intangible assets is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

6.Debt

As of NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, we had a committed revolving credit facility with maximum borrowings of up to $235 million, maturing in June 2024, and a $150 million term loan maturing in April 2021. As of May 30, 2020, our total debt outstanding was $251.3$210.9 million, compared to $245.8$217.9 million as of March 2, 2019. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we amended the borrowing capacity of our prior credit facility to $235 million with a maturity of June 2024 and we established a $150 million term loan with a maturity of JuneFebruary 29, 2020. Outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility were $80.5$40.5 million, as of NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, and $225.0$47.5 million, as of March 2, 2019.February 29, 2020.

Our revolving credit facility and term loan containscontain two financial covenants that require us to stay below a maximum debt-to-EBITDA ratio and maintain a minimum ratio of interest expense-to-EBITDA. Both ratios are computed quarterly, with EBITDA calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis. At NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, we were in compliance with both financial covenants. Additionally, at NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, we had a total of $24.7 million of ongoing letters of credit related to industrial revenue bonds,

construction contracts and insurance collateral that expire in fiscal years 2021 to 2032 and reduce borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility.

At NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, debt included $20.4 million of industrial revenue bonds that mature in fiscal years 2021 through 2043 and $0.4 million of long-term debt in Canada.2043. The fair value of the industrial revenue bonds approximated carrying value at NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, due to the variable interest rates on these instruments. All debt would be classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy described in Note 4.

We also maintain two Canadian demandcommitted, revolving credit facilities totaling $12.0$25.0 million Canadian dollars.(USD). As of NovemberMay 30, 20192020 and March 2, 2019,February 29, 2020, 0 borrowings were outstanding under the facilities. Borrowings under these facilities are made available at the sole discretion of the lenders and are payable on demand.

Interest payments were $7.31.4 million and $7.2$2.4 million for the ninethree months ended NovemberMay 30, 20192020 and DecemberJune 1, 20182019, respectively.

7. Leases

We lease certain of the buildings and equipment used in our operations. We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. Currently, all of our lease arrangements are classified as operating leases. We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance in adopting ASC 842, which among other things, allowed us to carry forward our historical lease classification. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term and lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our leases have remaining lease terms of one to ten years, some of which include renewal options that can extend the lease for up to an additional ten years at our sole discretion. We have made an accounting policy election not to record leases with an original term of 12 months or less on our consolidated balance sheet and such leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

In determining lease asset value, we consider fixed or variable payment terms, prepayments, incentives, and options to extend, terminate or purchase. Renewal, termination or purchase options affect the lease term used for determining lease asset value only if the option is reasonably certain to be exercised. We use a discount rate for each lease based upon an estimated incremental borrowing rate over a similar term. We have elected the practical expedient to account for lease and nonlease components (e.g., common-area maintenance costs) as a single lease component. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. We are not a lessor in any transactions.

8.Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Bond commitments
In the ordinary course of business, predominantly in our Architectural Services and Architectural Framing Systems segments, we are required to provide surety or performance bonds that commit payments to our customers for any non-performance. At NovemberMay 30, 2019, $833.9 million2020, $1.0 billion of these types of bonds were outstanding, of which $432.6$582.3 million is onin our backlog. These bonds do not have stated expiration dates. We have never been required to make payments under surety or performance bonds with respect to our existing businesses.

Warranty and project-related contingencies
We reserve estimated exposures on known claims, as well as on a portion of anticipated claims, for product warranty and rework cost, based on historical product liability claims as a ratio of sales. Claim costs are deducted from the accrual when paid. Factors that could have an impact on the warranty accrual in any given period include the following: changes in manufacturing quality, changes in product mix and any significant changes in sales volume.

Additionally, we are subject to project management and installation-related contingencies as a result of our fixed-price material supply and installation service contracts, primarily in our Architectural Services segment and certain of our Architectural Framing Systems businesses. We manage the risk of these exposures through contract negotiations, proactive project management and insurance coverages. We have recorded an estimatedThe liability for these types of project-related contingencies was $48.1 million and $49.0 million as of May 30, 2020 and February 29, 2020, respectively. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, in June 2020, we settled contract claims related to a majority of these project-related contingencies on a legacy EFCO project of $47.6 million and $42.8 million as of Novemberfor an amount equal to the contingency recorded at May 30, 2019 and March 2, 2019, respectively. This includes approximately $14.7 million recorded in the third quarter for estimated costs associated with project dispute resolution and other additional project costs. In the third quarter, upon confirmation of coverage by an insurer, we also recorded an insurance receivable of $15.0 million, included within other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets and within cost of sales on the consolidated results of operations. We received this payment subsequent to quarter-end.2020.

Letters of credit
At NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, we had $24.7 million of ongoing letters of credit, all of which have been issued under our committed revolving credit facility, as discussed in Note 6. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, in connection with the settlement of contract claims related to a legacy EFCO project referenced above, the original project performance and payment bond was replaced, which required a $25.0 million letter of credit. The letter of credit for the replacement bond was issued outside of our committed revolving credit facility, with no impact on our borrowing capacity and debt covenants.


Purchase obligations
Purchase obligations for raw material commitments and capital expenditures totaled $146.0$177.2 million as of NovemberMay 30, 2019.2020.

New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) transactions
We have entered into four separate NMTC programs to support our operational expansion, including two transactions completed in fiscal 2019.expansion. Proceeds received from investors on these transactions are included within other current and non-current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. The NMTC arrangements are subject to 100 percent tax recapture for a period of seven years from the date of each respective transaction. Therefore, upon the termination of each arrangement, these proceeds will be recognized in earnings in exchange for the transfer of tax credits. The direct and incremental costs incurred in structuring these arrangements have been deferred and are included in other current and non-current assets on our consolidated balance sheets. These costs will be recognized in conjunction with the recognition of the related proceeds on each arrangement. During the construction phase, we are required to hold cash dedicated to fund each capital project which is classified as restricted cash on our consolidated balance sheets. Variable-interest entities, which have been included within our consolidated financial statements, have been created as a result of the structure of these transactions, as investors in the programs do not have a material interest in their underlying economics.

In addition to the foregoing, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings incidental to its normal operating activities. In particular, like others in the construction supply and services industry, the Company is routinely involved in various disputes and claims arising out of construction projects, sometimes involving significant monetary damages or product replacement. The Company is also subject to litigation arising out of areas such as employment practices, workers compensation and general liability matters. Although it is very difficult to accurately predict the outcome of any such proceedings, facts currently available indicate that no matters will result in losses that would have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial condition of the Company.

Overview
We are a world leader in certain technologies involving the design and development of value-added glass and metal products and services for enclosing commercial buildings and framing and displays. Our four reporting segments are: Architectural Framing Systems, Architectural Glass, Architectural Services and Large-Scale Optical (LSO).

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause volatility and uncertainty in global markets impacting worldwide economic activity. We have experienced some delays in commercial construction projects and orders as a result of COVID-19. In our Architectural Glass and Architectural Framing segments, orders have been delayed or have slowed, as customers and end markets face some uncertainty and delays in timing of work. In our Architectural Services segment, some construction site closures or project delays have occurred, and job sites have had to adjust to increased physical distancing and health-related precautions. Within our LSO segment, temporary closure of many retail locations resulted in the shutdown of our factories for most of the first quarter, in response to governmental “stay at home” directives. We have also been impacted by quarantine-related absenteeism among our workforce, resulting in labor and capacity constraints at some of our facilities. The extent to which COVID-19 will impact our business will depend on future developments and public health advancements, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. However, towards the end of our first quarter and into the second quarter, we began to see some early signs of improvement, including the gradual reopening of retailers, moderating project delays and fewer workforce absences.

Furthermore, in response to COVID-19, we have implemented a variety of countermeasures to promote the health and safety of our employees during this pandemic, including health screening, physical distancing practices, enhanced cleaning, use of personal protective equipment, business travel restrictions, and remote work capabilities, in addition to quarantine-related paid leave and other employee assistance programs.

The following selected financial data should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended March 2, 2019February 29, 2020 and the consolidated financial statements, including the notes to consolidated financial statements, included therein.

Highlights of ThirdFirst Quarter and First Nine Months of Fiscal 20202021 Compared to ThirdFirst Quarter and First Nine Months of Fiscal 20192020

Net sales
Consolidated net sales decreased 5.5were $289.1 million, a decrease of 18.6 percent, or $19.8$66.3 million, for the thirdfirst quarter ended NovemberMay 30, 2019, and decreased 0.6 percent, or $6.0 million, for the nine-month period,2020, compared to the same periodsnet sales of $355.4 million in the prior year. Inyear period, reflecting COVID-19 related volume declines in each of the quarter, the decrease in sales was driven by three of our four segments, primarily a result of lower volumes in the Architectural Framing Systems segment, due to customer-driven schedule delays, and in the Architectural Glass segment, resulting from increased foreign competition. The Architectural Services segment also contributed to the decline in sales, as a result of timing of project activity, as expected. For the nine-month period, the decrease in sales was driven by expected project timing-related declines within the Architectural Services segment and by lower volumes as a result of customer-driven schedule delays within the Architectural Framing Systems segment, partially offset by improved volume in the Architectural Glass segment.company's segments.


The relationship between various components of operations, as a percentage of net sales, is presented below:

Gross profit as a percent of sales was 22.0 percent and 23.020.8 percent for the three- and nine-month periodsthree-month period ended NovemberMay 30, 2019, respectively,2020, compared to 23.5 percent and 23.622.8 percent for the three- and nine-month periodsthree-month period ended DecemberJune 1, 2018, respectively. The2019. This decrease in the current quarter was largely driven by higher manufacturing costs and operational difficulties that we are addressing in some of the businesses in the Architectural Framing Systems segment, as well as reduced operating leverage on lower volumes in the Architectural Services segment. In the nine-month period, gross profit improvements in Architectural Glass were offset by the operational difficulties in the Architectural Framing Systems segment, as well as reduced operating leverage in the Architectural Services segment. Additionally, in the current fiscal year, start-up costs relatedfirst quarter due to the new manufacturing facility for the small projects initiative within the Architectural Glass segment negatively impacted margin by 40 basis points in the quarter and 20 basis points in the year-to-date period.COVID-19-related project delays.

The effective tax rate in the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal 20202021 was 23.228.2 percent, compared to 23.524.4 percent in the same period lastprior year and 23.9 percentperiod. The increase in the tax rate was primarily driven by discrete tax expense relative to earnings for the first nine months of fiscal 2020, compared to 23.8 percent in the prior-year period. The small changes in tax rate were driven by the mix of foreign income and the impact of state taxes for both the three- and nine-month periods of the current year, compared to the same periods of the prior year.quarter.

We acquire the use of certain assets through operating leases, such as property, manufacturing equipment, vehicles and other equipment. Purchase obligations in the table above relate to raw material commitments and capital expenditures.

We expect to make contributions of $0.7 million to our defined-benefit pension plans in fiscal 2020,2021, which will equal or exceed our minimum funding requirements.

As of NovemberMay 30, 2019,2020, we had reserves of $5.2$4.1 million and $0.9 million for unrecognized tax benefits and environmental liabilities, respectively. We currently expect approximately $0.4 million of the unrecognized tax benefits to lapse during the next 12 months. We are unable to reasonably estimate in which future periods the remaining unrecognized tax benefits and environmental liabilities will ultimately be settled.

We are required, in the ordinary course of business, to provide surety or performance bonds that commit payments to our customers for any non-performance. At NovemberMay 30, 2019, $833.9 million2020, $1.0 billion of these types of bonds were outstanding, of which $432.6$582.3 million is onin our backlog. These bonds do not have stated expiration dates. We have never been required to make payments under surety or performance bonds with respect to our existing businesses.

Due to our ability to generate strong cash from operations and our borrowing capability under our committed revolving credit facility, we believe that our sources of liquidity will continue to be adequate to fund our working capital requirements, planned capital expenditures and dividend payments for at least the next 12 months.

Outlook
The following statements reflectCOVID-19 Consideration. While we believe we have adequate sources of liquidity to continue to fund our expectationsbusiness for full-year fiscal 2020 results. These statementsat least the next 12 months, the extent to which the ongoing COVID-19 situation may impact our results of operations or liquidity is uncertain. To date, we have experienced some delays in commercial construction projects and orders due to COVID-19. While the construction and construction-related industries are forward-looking,considered an "essential business or service" in most jurisdictions in which we operate, site closures or project and actualorder delays have occurred and increased social distancing and health-related precautions are required on many work sites, which may cause additional project delays and additional costs to be incurred. Within the LSO segment, we have also experienced the temporary closure of many of our customer's retail locations and we temporarily shut down our factories in this segment. We expect this global pandemic to have an impact on our revenue and our results may differ materially.

We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually at our year-end, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the goodwill may not be recoverable. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we identified qualitative indicators of impairment, including a significant decline in our stock price and market capitalization, along with concerns resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic at four of our nine identified reporting units. Therefore, we performed an interim goodwill impairment evaluation as of May 30, 2020. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds the carrying value, goodwill impairment is not indicated. Our accounting policy related to goodwill has not changed from that disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Based on the results of the interim quantitative goodwill impairment analysis, the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and, therefore, goodwill impairment was not indicated as of May 30, 2020. However, the estimated fair value did not exceed carrying value by a significant margin at two reporting units within the Architectural Framing Systems segment, EFCO and Sotawall, which had goodwill balances of $90.4 million and $26.7 million, respectively, at May 30, 2020. We utilized a discount rate of 11.0 percent in determining the discounted cash flows for EFCO and a discount rate of 10.4 percent in determining the discounted cash flows for Sotawall. We utilized a long-term growth rate of 3.0 percent in our fair value analysis for all reporting units. If our discount rates were to increase by 100 basis points at Sotawall and EFCO, the fair value of these reporting units would fall below carrying value, which would indicate impairment of the goodwill. Additionally, this discounted cash flow analysis is dependent upon achieving forecasted levels of revenue and profitability. If revenue or profitability were to fall below forecasted levels, or if market conditions were to decline in a material or sustained manner, impairment could be indicated at these reporting units, and potentially at other reporting units. If the impacts that we have experienced from COVID-19 continue at the current or worsening levels, this will likely have a negative impact on our forecasted revenue and profitability and this could result in an indication of goodwill impairment in future periods.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets
We hold intangible assets for certain acquired trade names and trademarks which are determined to have indefinite useful lives. We evaluate the reasonableness of the useful life and test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually at our year-end, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we identified qualitative indicators of impairment, including deteriorating macroeconomic conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the Company performed a quantitative indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment evaluation as of May 30, 2020. If the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. If an impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount becomes the asset's new accounting basis. Our accounting policy for indefinite-lived intangible assets has not changed from that disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Fair value is measured using the relief-from-royalty method. This method assumes the trade name or trademark has value to the extent that the owner is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from the asset. This method requires us to estimate the future revenue from the related asset, the appropriate royalty rate, and the weighted average cost of capital. The assessment of fair value involves significant judgment and projections about future performance. In determining the discounted future revenue in our fair value analysis, we used discount rates that are appropriate with the risks and uncertainties inherent in the respective businesses in the range of 10.9 percent to 11.5 percent, royalty rates of 1.5 to 2.0 percent, and a long-term growth rate of 3.0 percent. Based on our analysis, the fair value of each of our trade names exceeded its carrying amount and impairment was not indicated. We continue to conclude that the useful life of our indefinite-lived intangible assets is appropriate. If future revenue were to fall below forecasted levels or if market conditions were to decline in a material or sustained manner, due to COVID-19 or otherwise, impairment could be indicated on one or more of our indefinite-lived intangible assets.

Other Matters
In addition to the foregoing, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings incidental to its normal operating activities. In particular, like others in the construction supply and services industry, the Company is routinely involved in various disputes and claims arising out of construction projects, sometimes involving significant monetary damages or product replacement. The Company is also subject to litigation arising out of areas such as employment practices, workers compensation and general liability matters. Although it is very difficult to accurately predict the outcome of any such proceedings, facts currently available indicate that no matters will result in losses that would have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial condition of the Company.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

There have been no material changes or additions to our risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 2, 2019.February 29, 2020, except as noted below.


The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, efforts to mitigate the pandemic, and the related weakening economic conditions, have impacted our business and could have a significant negative impact on our operations, liquidity, financial condition and financial results
In the last quarter of our fiscal 2020, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, started to impact the global economic environment causing extreme volatility and uncertainty in global markets. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a global pandemic and we started to see certain impacts to our business. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and the related adverse public health developments, and government orders to "stay in place" have adversely affected work forces, economies and financial markets globally. Quarantines and "stay in place" orders, the timing and length of containment and eradication solutions, travel restrictions, absenteeism by infected workers, labor shortages or other disruptions to our supply chain or our customers, have adversely impacted our sales and operating results and have resulted in some project delays. In

addition, the pandemic has resulted in an economic downturn that could affect the ability of our customers to obtain financing for projects and therefore impact demand for our products and services. Order lead times could be extended or delayed and our pricing or pricing of suppliers for needed materials could increase. Some critical materials, products or services may become unavailable if the regional or global spread were significant enough to prevent alternative sourcing. Accordingly, we are considering alternative product sourcing in the event that material supply becomes problematic.

To date, we have experienced some delays in commercial construction projects due to COVID-19. While the construction and construction-related industries are considered an "essential business or service" in most jurisdictions in which we operate, site closures or project delays have occurred and increased social distancing and health-related precautions are required on many work sites, which may cause additional project delays and additional costs to be incurred. Within the LSO segment, we also experienced the temporary closure of many of our customer's retail locations and we temporarily shut down our factories in this segment to comply with government "stay in place" orders. We expect this global pandemic to have an impact on our revenue and our results of operations, the size and duration of which we are currently unable to predict. The global outbreak of COVID-19 continues to rapidly evolve. The extent to which COVID-19 will impact our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate severity and spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions and social distancing requirements in the United States and other countries, business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken in the United States and other countries to contain and treat the disease.

Given the speed and frequency of the continuously evolving developments with respect to this pandemic, we cannot reasonably estimate the magnitude of the impact to our results of operations, liquidity or financial position. To the extent that our customers and suppliers are adversely impacted by the coronavirus outbreak, this could reduce the availability, or result in delays, of materials or supplies, or delays in customer payments, which in turn could materially interrupt our business operations and/or impact our liquidity.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment
Our assets include a significant amount of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. We evaluate goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment annually at our year-end, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit may not be recoverable. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we identified qualitative indicators of impairment, including a significant decline in our stock price and market capitalization, along with concerns resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic at four of our nine identified reporting units. The assessment of impairment requires determination of estimated fair value, generally using a discounted cash flow analysis, which involves significant judgment and projections about future performance.

Evaluating goodwill for impairment involves the determination of the fair value of each reporting unit in which goodwill is recorded using a qualitative or quantitative analysis. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a component of an operating segment for which discrete financial information is available and reviewed by management on a regular basis. Each of our nine business units represents a reporting unit for the goodwill impairment analysis. Based on the results of the interim quantitative goodwill impairment analysis, the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and, therefore, goodwill impairment was not indicated as of May 30, 2020. However, the estimated fair value did not exceed carrying value by a significant margin at two reporting units within the Architectural Framing Systems segment, EFCO and Sotawall, which had goodwill balances of $90.4 million and $26.7 million, respectively, at May 30, 2020. We utilized a discount rate of 11.0 percent in determining the discounted cash flows for EFCO and a discount rate of 10.4 percent in determining the discounted cash flows for Sotawall. We utilized a long-term growth rate of 3.0 percent in our fair value analysis for all reporting units. If our discount rates were to increase by 100 basis points at Sotawall and EFCO, the fair value of these reporting units would fall below carrying value, which would indicate impairment of the goodwill. Additionally, this discounted cash flow analysis is dependent upon achieving forecasted levels of revenue and profitability. If revenue or profitability were to fall below forecasted levels, or if market conditions were to decline in a material or sustained manner, impairment could be indicated at these reporting units, and potentially at other reporting units. If the impacts that we have experienced from COVID-19 continue at the current or worsening levels, this will likely have a negative impact on our forecasted revenue and profitability and this could result in an indication of goodwill impairment in future periods.

Fair value of our indefinite-lived intangible assets is measured using the relief-from-royalty method. This method assumes the trade name or trademark has value to the extent that the owner is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from the asset. This method requires estimation of the future revenue from the related asset, the appropriate royalty rate, and the weighted average cost of capital. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we identified qualitative indicators of impairment, including deteriorating macroeconomic conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the Company performed a quantitative indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment evaluation as of May 30, 2020. Based on our analysis, the fair value of each of our trade names exceeded its carrying amount and impairment was not indicated. In determining the discounted future revenue in our fair value analysis, we used discount rates that are appropriate with the risks and uncertainties inherent in the respective businesses in the range of 10.9 percent to 11.5 percent, royalty rates of 1.5 to 2.0 percent, and a long-term growth rate

of 3.0 percent. We continue to conclude that the useful life of our indefinite-lived intangible assets is appropriate. If future revenue were to fall below forecasted levels or if market conditions were to decline in a material or sustained manner, due to COVID-19 or otherwise, impairment could be indicated on one or more of our indefinite-lived intangible assets.
