BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In the opinion of Patrick Industries, Inc. (“Patrick” or the “Company”), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 26, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 26, 2016 and June 28, 2015.

Patrick’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules or regulations. For a description of significant accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements, please refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The December 31, 2015 condensed consolidated statement of financial position data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Operating results for the second quarter and six months ended June 26, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

Certain amounts in the prior year’s condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. See Notes 2 and 3 for additional details.

In preparation of Patrick’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the second quarter and six months ended June 26, 2016, management evaluated all material subsequent events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date of issuance of the Form 10-Q for potential recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. See Notes 9 and 15 for events that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date.

Certain amounts in the prior year’s condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. See Notes 2 and 3 for additional details.RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The number of shares and per share amounts for the first quarter ended March 29, 2015 have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the three-for-two stock split of the Company's common stock, which was effected in the form of a common stock dividend paid on May 29, 2015.

In preparation of Patrick’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the first quarter ended March 27, 2016, management evaluated all material subsequent events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date of issuance of the Form 10-Q for potential recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

 

2.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new accounting guidance which specifies how and when to recognize revenue as well as providing informative, relevant disclosures. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of this standard by one year, which would become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating both the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance and determining the appropriate method of transition it will use to apply the new standard. It has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the implementation of this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Debt Issuance Costs

In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance that requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the statement of financial position as a reduction in the carrying amount of debt, consistent with the presentation of debt issuance discounts. The Company adopted this new guidance, on a retrospective basis, in the first quarter of 2016 as required. Total assets and total liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2015 were reduced by the reclassification of $0.6 million of deferred financing costs related to recognize revenue as well as providing informative, relevant disclosures. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of this standard by one year, which would become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating both the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance and determining the appropriate method of transition it will use to apply the new standard. It has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the implementation of this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Debt Issuance Costs

In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance that requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the statement of financial position as a reduction in the carrying amount of debt, consistent with the presentation of debt issuance discounts. The Company adopted this new guidance, on a retrospective basis, in the first quarter of 2016 as required. Total assets and total liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2015 were reduced by the reclassification of $0.8 million of deferred financing costs associated with the Term Loan (as defined herein) to the long-term debt, less current maturities, net line on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position. See Note 3 for a description of the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of financial position for the periods presented.

 

 

 

Income Taxes

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes. Under the new guidance, deferred tax assets and liabilities are required to be classified, on a net basis, as noncurrent on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted.

 

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company elected to adopt this guidance, thus reclassifying current deferred tax assets to noncurrent, net of deferred tax liabilities, on the condensed consolidated statements of financial position. The prior year reporting period was retrospectively adjusted. Current assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2015 were reduced by the reclassification of $5.8 million of current deferred tax assets to long-term assets. Total assets and total liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2015 were reduced by the reclassification of $3.8 million of long-term deferred tax liabilities to long-term deferred tax assets. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income.

 

Leases

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that will require that an entity recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet for leases in excess of one year that were previously classified as operating leases under U.S. GAAP. The guidance also requires companies to disclose in the footnotes to the financial statements information about the amount, timing, and uncertainty for the payments made for the lease agreements. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 on a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance and has not yet determined the impact that the implementation of this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Stock Compensation

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued new accounting guidance for share-based payments, which simplifies (i) the income tax consequences related to exercised or vested share-based payment awards; (ii) the classification of awards as assets or liabilities; and (iii) the classification in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance and has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the implementation of this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

The condensed consolidated statements of financial position at March 27,DEFERRED FINANCING/DEBT ISSUANCE COSTS

The condensed consolidated statements of financial position at June 26, 2016 and December 31, 2015 reflect the reclassification of assets related to deferred financing costs associated with the Term Loan outstanding under the Company’s 2015 Credit Facility (as defined herein) that were reclassified and presented net of long-term debt outstanding. The deferred financing costs related to the 2015 Revolver (as defined herein) were not reclassified to long-term debt and are reflected as a component of non-current assets on the condensed consolidated statements of financial position for the periods presented. The reclassification is the result of the Company’s adoption of new accounting guidance that requires debt issuance costs be presented in the statement of financial position as a reduction in the carrying amount of debt, consistent with the presentation of debt issuance discounts. In the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted this guidance as required on a retrospective basis. See Note 2 “Debt Issuance Costs” for further details.

At December 31, 2015, the total maximum borrowing limit under the Company’s 2015 Credit Facility was $300.0 million, of which $75.0 million or 25%, represented the total commitment under the Term Loan. Unamortized total deferred financing costs were $2.2 million and $2.5 million at June 26, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

The Company acquired intangible assets in various acquisitions in 2015 and through the first six months of 2016 that were determined to be business combinations. The goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. See Note 6 for further details. Goodwill and other intangible assets are allocated to the Company’s reporting units at the date they are initially recorded. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are subject to an impairment test based on their estimated fair value performed annually in the fourth quarter (or under certain circumstances more frequently as warranted). Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level, one level below the business segment.

Finite-lived intangible assets that meet certain criteria continue to be amortized over their useful lives and are also subject to an impairment test based on estimated undiscounted cash flows when impairment indicators exist. The Company assesses finite-lived intangible assets for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may exceed the fair value.

No impairment was recognized during the second quarter and six months ended June 26, 2016 and June 28, 2015 related to goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets or finite-lived intangible assets. There have been no material changes to the method of evaluating impairment related to goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets or finite-lived intangible assets during the first six months of 2016.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company acquired intangible assets in various acquisitions in 2015 and through the first quarter of 2016 that were determined to be business combinations. The goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. See Note 6 for further details. Goodwill and other intangible assets are allocated to the Company’s reporting units at the date they are initially recorded. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are subject to an impairment test based on their estimated fair value performed annually in the fourth quarter (or under certain circumstances more frequently as warranted). Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level, one level below the business segment.

General

The Company completed four acquisitions in the first six months of 2016 and three acquisitions in 2015, including two in the first six months of 2015. Each of the acquisitions was funded through borrowings under the Company’s credit facility in existence at the time of acquisition. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the individual acquisitions were recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of financial position at their estimated fair values as of the respective dates of acquisition.

For each acquisition, the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill, which represents the value of leveraging the Company’s existing purchasing, manufacturing, sales, and systems resources with the organizational talent and expertise of the acquired companies’ respective management teams to maximize efficiencies, revenue impact, market share growth, and net income. Intangible asset values were estimated using income based valuation methodologies. See Note 5 for information regarding the amortization periods assigned to finite-lived intangible assets.

For the second quarter ended June 26, 2016, revenue and operating income of approximately $16.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively, were included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income relating to the four businesses acquired in 2016. The first six months of 2016 included revenue and operating income of approximately $20.0 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Acquisition-related costs associated with the businesses acquired in 2016 were immaterial.

For the second quarter ended June 28, 2015, revenue and operating income of approximately $13.8 million and $2.2 million, respectively, were included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income relating to the businesses acquired in 2015. The first six months of 2015 included revenue and operating income of approximately $20.3 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Acquisition-related costs associated with the business acquired in 2015 were immaterial.

2016 Acquisitions

 

Finite-lived intangible assets that meet certain criteria continue to be amortized over their useful lives and are also subject to an impairment test based on estimated undiscounted cash flows when impairment indicators exist. The Company assesses finite-lived intangible assets for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may exceed the fair value.

No impairment was recognized during the first quarter ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015 related to goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets or finite-lived intangible assets. There have been no material changes to the method of evaluating impairment related to goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets or finite-lived intangible assets during the first three months of 2016.

For the first six months of 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded $3.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively.

The Company estimates the fair value of (i) all stock grants as of the grant date using the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on such date, and (ii) all stock option and stock appreciation rights awards as of the grant date by applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved the following share grants in 2015 under the Company’s 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”): 127,629 shares on February 16, 2015, 300 shares on April 1, 2015, 12,064 shares on May 19, 2015, 447 shares on August 13, 2015, 2,250 shares on October 8, 2015, and 3,000 shares on October 12, 2015.

The Board approved the following share grants under the Plan in the first three months of 2016: 133,187 shares on February 23, 2016 and 3,500 shares on March 2, 2016. In addition, on February 23, 2016, the Board granted 22,000 RSUs.

As of March 27, 2016, there was approximately $10.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based compensation arrangements granted under incentive plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 20.2 months.

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, plus the dilutive effect of stock options, stock appreciation rights, and restricted stock units (collectively “Common Stock Equivalents”). The dilutive effect of Common Stock Equivalents is calculated under the treasury stock method using the average market price for the period. Certain Common Stock Equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted net income per common share because the exercise prices of those Common Stock Equivalents were greater than the average market price of the common shares.

Income per common share is calculated for the second quarter and six months periods as follows:

Consolidated total indebtedness for any period is the sum of: (i) total debt outstanding under the 2015 Revolver and the Term Loan; (ii) capital leases and letters of credit outstanding; and (iii) deferred payment obligations. The consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio for any period is the ratio of consolidated EBITDA less restricted payments, taxes paid and capital expenditures as defined under the 2015 Credit Agreement to consolidated fixed charges. Consolidated fixed charges for any period is the sum of interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness under the Term Loan.


As of and for the June 26, 2016 reporting date, the Company was in compliance with both of these financial debt covenants as required under the terms of the 2015 Credit Agreement. The required maximum consolidated total leverage ratio and the minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio compared to the actual amounts as of June 26, 2016 and for the fiscal period then ended are as follows:

OVERVIEW OFOVERVIEW OF MARKETS AND RELATED INDUSTRY PERFORMANCE

 

Summary 

 

The first quarterhalf of 2016 reflected a continuation of steady growth in the recreational vehicle (“RV”) market, which includes growth in both towables and motorized units, and improving conditions in the industrial markets, as evidenced by year-to-date growth in new housing starts. In addition, the manufactured housing (“MH”) market continued to reflect solid improvement in the quarter based on the growth rate in estimated wholesale industry shipments surpassing that of the most recent quarters.prior year quarter. We are seeing resilience, in particular in the RV market, and overall balance related to dealer inventory levels when compared to original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) production levels. Overall, we have continued to capture market share through our strategic acquisitions, line extensions, and the introduction of new and innovative products, which resulted in our overall sales levels in the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016 increasing beyond the general industry results. We expect the three primary markets that we serve to experience continued growth in the remainder of 2016 with full year seasonal pattern tracking trends consistent with the prior year.

 

RV Industry

 

The RV industry, which is our primary market and comprised 78%76% of the Company’s first quartersix months 2016 sales, continued to strengthen as evidenced by higher OEM production levels and wholesale unit shipments versus the prior year. According to the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (“RVIA”), wholesale shipment levels reached 108,195118,091 units in the firstsecond quarter of 2016, representing an increase of approximately 11%12% versus the prior year period. In the first six months of 2016, wholesale unit shipment levels reached 226,286 units, an increase of approximately 12% over 2015. Recent acquisitions, new product offerings, and the ongoing strength of retail RV sales in both the towables and motorized sectors have led to a significant increase in our net sales in the first quarterhalf of 2016.

 

SinceIn the beginningsecond quarter of April 2015, we have seenthe industry began to see a shift in the RV industrybuying patterns towards a larger concentration of entry level, and lower pricedless expensive towable units, particularly in the travel trailer sector, which has impactedsector. While this trend is still evident today, it is beginning to have less of an impact quarter over quarter in terms of our overall dollar content per unit growth in the short-term.growth. We do, however, expect these mix shift trends to reverse in the long term as consumers look to add more amenities and upgrade their units over time. Further, we believe this mix shift is reflective of the continuing influx of younger and first-time consumers entering the market, as supported by recent dealer surveys, thus broadening the market’s foundation and extending the opportunity for future long-term industry growth. Additionally, we believe our commitment to quality customer service and our large complement of innovative product lines at various price points position us to address our customers’ changing needs and buying patterns.

 

As it relates to the correlation between retail inventories and overall production levels, industry reports and dealer surveys continue to indicate RV dealer inventory levels are in line with anticipated retail demand, representing continued balance within the industry. Based on the most recent available industry-wide survey data, in the first twofive months of 2016, combined domestic and Canadian retail sales were up 7% year-over-year compared to wholesale production which was up approximately 11%10% over the same two-monthfive-month period. We generally see wholesale shipments exceed retail sales in the first parthalf of the calendar year as the retail selling season ramps up for the late first quarter and second quarter peak. Despite the RV industry approaching prior peak levels of wholesale production, peaks, we continue to believe the future looks promising for the RV industry based on a number of factors including: positive industry demographic trends with younger buyers and an increasing number of baby boomers reaching retirement age, readily available financing, new and innovative products coming to market, increasing strength in the overall economic environment, and the value of the RV lifestyle related to spending quality time with families. The strong demographic indicators mentioned above point to a generally positive long-term outlook in the RV market, notwithstanding any major global events.

 

MH Industry

 

The MH industry represented approximately 11%12% of the Company’s first quartersix months 2016 sales. Based on industry data forAs estimated by the months of January and February 2016 and our Company, forecast for the month of March, we estimate MH wholesale unit shipments in the MH industry increased by approximately 12% in the second quarter of 2016 and 18% in the first quartersix months of 2016 versusfrom the comparable prior year representing the highest quarter-over-quarter increase since 2012.periods. While we believe the MH industry has several hurdles to overcome related to the lack of financing alternatives, current credit standards and requirements, slow job growth, and limited access to the asset backed securities market, we are optimistic about the long-term potential in this industry as pent up demand continues to be created based on improving consumer credit, rising rents, and capacity constraints in multi-family housing.

 

 

 

TheSimilar to the RV industry, the MH industry is also adapting to younger buyers focused on value and quality by concentrating on affordable, energy efficientenergy-efficient homes for both entry level participants and those looking to downsize from traditional stick built housing to allow flexibility and convenience. We believe there continues to be significant opportunity for growth in this market over the long-term based on pent up housing demand, multi-family housing capacity levels and increasing rental rates, improving consumer credit and financing conditions, and the value proposition of low cost affordable single family homes, among other factors. We expect to see continued year-over-year improvement with limited risk in the near term and believe that there is the potential for this market to grow at a much higher rate in the future, especially given historical trends when compared to residential housing starts. We believe we are well positioned to capitalize on the upside potential of the MH market, especially given the combination of our nationwide geographic footprint, available capacity in our current MH concentratedfocused locations, and our current content per unit levels.

 

Industrial Market

 

The industrial market, which accounted for 11%12% of our first quartersix months 2016 sales, and is comprised primarily of the kitchen cabinet industry, retail and commercial fixtures market, office and household furniture market and regional distributors, is primarily impacted by macroeconomic conditions and more specifically, conditions in the residential housing market. The Company’s industrial sales have increased over the last several years, reflecting both acquisition and organic growth, the addition of new sales territories over the past two years, and a focus on opportunities in the commercial markets. We estimate approximately half45% of our industrial revenue base was directly tied to the residential housing market in the first quarterhalf of 2016 where new housing starts increased approximately 14%7% compared to the prior year period (as reported by the U.S. Department of Commerce). The remaining half55% of our industrial business is directly tied to the commercial markets, mainly in the retail fixture, institutional and commercial furnishings markets.markets and in the retail fixtures market. Our sales to the industrial market generally lag new residential housing starts by six to nine months.

 

In orderWe continue to offset some of the impacts of the weakness in the residential housing market in recent years, we have focused on diversification efforts, strategic acquisitions,diversify our industrial business and increased penetration into the commercial and multi-family housing markets with the addition of new sales territories and personnel. Additionally, we have targeted certain sales efforts towards market segments that are less directly tied to new single and multi-family home construction, including the marine, retail fixture, commercial, and hospitality, office and furniture markets. In particular, in the first half of 2016, we saw an approximate 14% growth in our commercial and countertop markets.institutional furnishings sales year over year. As a result, we have seen a shift in our product mix, which has had a positive impact on revenue from the industrial markets. In addition, we believe that projected continued low interest rates, overall expected economic improvement, and pent up demand are some of the drivers that will continue to positively impact the housing industry for the next several years.    

 

FiscalSecond Half 2016 Outlook

 

In general, we expect the three primary markets that we serve experienced steadyto continue to experience quarter-over-quarter growth for the remainder of 2016 compared to the prior year. As we head into the third quarter of 2016 and the RV dealer show season in the firstSeptember/October timeframe, we expect to see seasonal patterns generally consistent with prior years including sequential softening in the third quarter of 2016 compared to the prior year, and we expect to see continued growth with full year seasonal pattern tracking trends consistent withsecond quarter of 2016 as dealers await the priornew product lines for the 2017 model year.

As the RV lifestyle continues to attract new buyers to the market, the RVIA has forecasted that RV unit shipment levels in 2016 will increase approximately 2%6% when compared to the full year 2015. In addition, consistent with the improvement in single-family residential housing starts as projected by the National Association of Home Builders (the “NAHB”) for the full year 2016, we anticipate a further increase in production levels in the MH industry in 2016, reflecting improvement in the overall economy. Based on the industry’s current annualized run rates, the Company projects wholesale MH unit shipments for full year 2016 to increase by approximately 10%13% compared to 2015. As of April 1,June 30, 2016, the NAHB is forecasting an approximate 10%6% year-over-year increase in new housing starts for the full year 2016 compared to 2015.

 


We willcontinuewill continue to review our operations on a regular basis, balance appropriate risks and opportunities, and maximize efficiencies to support the Company’s long-term strategic growth goals. Our team remains focused on strategic acquisitions in our existing businesses and similar markets, expanding operations in targeted regional territories, capturing market share and increasing our per unit content, keeping costs aligned with revenue, maximizing operating efficiencies, talent management, and the execution of our organizational strategic agenda.

Net Sales. Net sales in the firstsecond quarter of 2016 increased $55.2$81.7 million or 25%35%, to $278.6$315.2 million from $223.4$233.5 million in the firstsecond quarter of 2015. The increase was primarily attributable to a 25%33% increase in the Company’s revenue from the RV industry, a 23%26% increase in revenue from the MH industry, and a 29%57% increase in revenue from the industrial markets.

Net sales in the first six months of 2016 increased $136.9 million or 30%, to $593.8 million from $456.9 million in the prior year period. The increase was attributable to a 29% increase in the Company’s revenue from the RV industry, a 24% increase in revenues from the MH industry, and a 44% increase in revenues from the industrial markets.

 

The revenue increase largely reflected the revenue contribution of the acquisitions completed in 2016 (Parkland2016: Parkland Plastics, Inc. (“Parkland”) and, The Progressive Group (“Progressive”), Cana Holdings, Inc. (“Cana”), Mishawaka Sheet Metal, LLC (“MSM”), and the incremental revenue contributions of the 2015 acquisitions (Betteracquisitions: Better Way Partners, LLC d/b/a Better Way Products (“Better Way”), Structural Composites of Indiana, Inc. (“SCI”), and North American Forest Products, Inc. and North American Moulding, LLC (collectively, “North American”)). The sales improvement in the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016 is also attributable to: (i) increased RV, MH, and industrial market penetration; (ii) improved commercial and institutional fixtures sales in the industrial market; (iii) an increase in wholesale unit shipments in the RV and MH industries; and (iv) improved residential housing starts. Our sales


Revenue in the second quarter of 2016 and 2015 included $16.2 million and $13.8 million, respectively, related to the industrial market sector, which is primarily tiedacquisitions completed in each of those periods. For the first six months of 2016 and 2015, revenue attributable to the residential housingacquisitions completed in each of those periods was $20.0 million and commercial and retail fixture markets, generally lag new residential housing starts by approximately six to nine months.$20.3 million, respectively.

 

Partially offsetting this revenue growth, particularly in the RV industry, in both the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016, was the continued mix shift towards a larger concentration of entry level and lower priced units, particularly related to travel trailers in both the towables and motorized sectorssector of the industry, which negatively impacted our content per unit growth, and price declines in certain more commodity-oriented raw materials passed on to customers that we utilize in our manufacturing processes.growth. In addition, there were some normal competitive pricing situations experienced in the marketscertain market sectors in the first quarter of 2016 as a result of model year changeovers.

 

The Company’s RV content per unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis) for the firstsecond quarter of 2016 increased approximately 17% to $1,904$1,998 from $1,629$1,707 for the firstsecond quarter of 2015. The MH content per unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis) for the firstsecond quarter of 2016 increased approximately 5%3% to an estimated $1,808$1,844 from $1,718$1,790 for the firstsecond quarter of 2015.

 

The RV industry, which represented 78%75% and 76% of the Company’s sales in the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016, respectively, saw wholesale unit shipments increase by approximately 11%12% in that periodboth of those periods compared to 2015. The Company estimates that the MH industry, which represented 11%13% of the Company’s sales in the second quarter and 12% in the first quartersix months of 2016, experienced ana 12% and 18% increase in wholesale unit shipments in the first quarter of 2016those periods, respectively, compared to the prior year period.periods. The industrial market sector accounted for approximately 11%12% of the Company’s sales in both the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016. We estimate that approximately half45% of our industrial revenue base is linked to the residential housing market, which experienced an increase in new housing starts of approximately 14%1% in the second quarter of 2016 and 7% in the first quartersix months of 2016 compared to the prior year periodperiods (as reported by the U.S. Department of Commerce).

 


Cost of Goods Sold.Cost of goods sold increased $45.3$66.8 million or 24%35%, to $233.3$259.9 million in the firstsecond quarter of 2016 from $188.0$193.1 million in 2015.As2015.As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased during the firstsecond quarter of 2016 to 83.7%82.5% from 84.2%82.7% in 2015.For the first six months of 2016, cost of goods sold increased $112.1 million or 29%, to $493.2 million from $381.1 million in the prior year period. For the first six months of 2016, cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales decreased to 83.1% from 83.4% in the prior year period.

 

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was positively impacted during both the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016 by increased revenue relative to our overall fixed overhead costs, the impact of the timing of acquisitions completed during 2015 and 2016, the addition of new higher margin product lines, and improved operating efficiencies. In addition, demand changes in certain market sectors can result in fluctuating costs of certain more commodity-oriented raw materials and other products that we utilize and distribute from quarter-to-quarter.

 

Gross Profit.Gross profit increased $10.0$14.9 million or 28%37%, to $45.4$55.3 million in firstsecond quarter 2016 from $35.4$40.4 million in 2015. For the six months periods, gross profit increased $24.8 million or 33%, to $100.6 million in 2016 from $75.8 million in 2015. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 16.3%17.5% in the firstsecond quarter of 2016 from 15.8%17.3% in 2015.the same period in 2015, and increased to 16.9% in the first six months of 2016 from 16.6% in the prior year period. The improvement in gross profit dollars and as a percentage of net sales in both the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016 compared to 2015 reflected the positive impact of the factors discussed above under “Cost of Goods Sold,” including the positive contribution to gross profit of acquisition-related revenue growth as noted above.

 

Economic or industry-wide factors affecting the profitability of our RV, MH and industrial businesses include the costs of commodities used to manufacture our products and the competitive environment that can cause gross margins to fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year.

 

Exclusive of any commodity pricing fluctuations, competitive pricing dynamics, or other circumstances outside of our control, we anticipate full year gross margins to increase in 2016 from 2015 as a result of operating leverage from continued expected sales growth, as well as higher average gross margins on certainthe acquisitions completed in 2015 and thus far in 2016 when compared to historical consolidated gross margins. We expect the increase in gross margin in 2016 to be partially offset by lower gross margins on certain other acquisitions completed in 2015 when compared to historical consolidated gross margins.

 


Warehouse and Delivery ExpensesExpenses. Warehouse and delivery expenses increased $1.0$2.5 million or 16%36%, to $7.7$9.3 million in firstsecond quarter 2016 from $6.7$6.8 million in 2015. For the first six months, warehouse and delivery expenses increased $3.5 million or 26%, to $17.0 million in 2016 from $13.5 million in 2015. As a percentage of net sales, warehouse and delivery expenses were 2.8%unchanged at 2.9% in firstthe second quarter 2016 compared toand 2015. For the comparable six months periods, warehouse and delivery expenses were 2.9% and 3.0% in first quarter 2015.of net sales for 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

The decrease in warehouse and delivery expenses as a percentage of net sales in the first quartersix months of 2016 reflected the impact of increased direct ship business in our Distribution segment, a reduction in fuel costs, the impact of acquisitions completed in 2015 and 2016 with lower delivery expenses as a percentage of net sales when compared to the consolidated percentage, and more efficient utilization per delivery truckload. We expect the current reduced level of fuel costs, if sustained throughout the remainder of 2016, to positively impact our warehouse and delivery expense.

 

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses. SG&A expenses increased $2.7$3.6 million or 24%32%, to $14.2$14.8 million in firstsecond quarter 2016 from $11.5$11.2 million in 2015. For the first six months, SG&A expenses increased $6.3 million or 28%, to $29.0 million in 2016 from $22.7 million in 2015. The net increase in SG&A expenses in the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016 compared to the prior year periods primarily reflected the impact of additional headcount and administrative expenses associated with recent acquisitions and increased stock-based and incentive compensation expense designed to attract and retain key employees. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 5.1%4.7% in the firstsecond quarter of 2016 and 5.2%compared to 4.8% in the same periodsecond quarter of 2015. For the comparable six months periods, SG&A expenses were 4.9% and 5.0% of net sales for 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Amortization of Intangible Assets.Amortization of intangible assets increased $1.1$1.2 million and $2.4 million in the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016, respectively, compared to the prior year period,periods, primarily reflecting the impact of the acquisitions completed in 2015 (Better Way, SCI and North American) and in the first quartersix months of 2016 (Parkland, Progressive, Cana and Progressive)MSM). In the aggregate, in conjunction with the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions, the Company recognized an estimated $62.4$72.4 million in certain finite-lived intangible assets that are being amortized over periods ranging from two to 10 years.

 


Operating Income.Operating income increased $5.0$7.6 million or 32%37%, to $20.6$28.0 million in firstsecond quarter 2016 from $15.6$20.4 million in 2015. For the first six months, operating income increased $12.7 million or 35%, to $48.6 million in 2016 from $35.9 million in 2015. As a percentage of net sales, operating income increased to 7.4%8.9% in firstthe second quarter of 2016 from 7.0%8.7% in the same period in 2015. For the first six months of 2016 and 2015, operating income was 8.1% and 7.8% of net sales, respectively. Operating income in the firstsecond quarter of 2016 and 2015 included $0.4$1.9 million and $0.8$2.2 million, respectively, relatedattributable to the acquisitions completed in each of those periods. For the first six months of 2016 and 2015, operating income attributable to acquisitions completed in each of those periods was $2.3 million and $3.0 million, respectively. The change in operating income and operating margin is primarily attributable to the items discussed above.

 

Interest expense, net.Expense, Net. Interest expense increased $0.8$0.7 million to $1.6 million in firstsecond quarter 2016 from $0.8$0.9 million in the prior year. For the first six months, interest expense increased $1.6 million to $3.3 million in 2016 from $1.7 million in 2015. The change in interest expense reflects increased borrowings primarily to fund acquisitions and increased working capital needs in the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016.

 

Income Taxes.The Company recorded income taxes at an estimated effective rate of 36.7% and 36.6% in the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016.2016, respectively. For both of the comparable 2015 period,periods, the estimated effective tax rate was 38.0%. As we continue to refine our state income tax estimates, which are impacted by shifts in apportionment factors among states as a result of recent acquisition activity and other factors, we could experience fluctuations in our combined effective income tax rate from period to period and for the remainder of 2016.

 


In both the first threesix months of 2016 and 2015, the Company realized approximately $0.9 million and $1.2 million respectively, of excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation, which had not been recorded as deferred tax assets at December 31, 2015 and 2014. These tax benefits were recorded to shareholders’ equity upon realization in 2016 and 2015.

 

Net Income. Net income for the firstsecond quarter of 2016 increased 32% to $12.0was $16.7 million from $9.2 million in the first quarter of 2015, while net incomeor $1.10 per diluted share increased 36%compared to $0.80 from $0.59.$12.1 million or $0.78 per diluted share for 2015. For the first six months, net income was $28.7 million or $1.90 per diluted share in 2016 compared to $21.2 million or $1.37 per diluted share for 2015. The increasechanges in net income for both the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016 reflectsreflect the impact of the items previously discussed.discussed.

On a year-to-date basis, the sales increase reflected a 38%, 40% and 30% increase in the Company’s revenue from the RV industry, MH industry and industrial markets, respectively.

 

The revenue improvementRevenue in the firstsecond quarter of 2016 was largelyand 2015 included $10.7 million and $13.8 million, respectively, attributable to the 2016 acquisition of Parkland and to the incremental contribution of acquisitions completed in 2015.each of those periods. For the first six months of 2016 and 2015, revenue attributable to acquisitions completed in each of those periods was $13.1 million and $20.3 million, respectively. The sales improvement was also attributable to: (i) increased RV, MH and industrial market penetration; (ii) an increase in wholesale unit shipments in the RV and MH industries of 11% and 18%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2016;industries; and (iii) improved commercial and institutional fixtures business in the industrial markets. Partially offsetting this revenue growth, particularly in the RV industry, in both the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2016, was the continued mix shift towards a larger concentration of entry level and lower priced units, particularly related to travel trailers in both the towables and motorized sectors,sector of the industry, which negatively impacted our content per unit growth, and price declines in certain more commodity-oriented raw materials passed on to customers that we utilize in our manufacturing processes.growth.

Operating Activities

 

Cash flows from operations represent the net income earned in the reported periods adjusted for non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Our primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under our 2015 Credit Facility (as defined herein). Our principal uses of cash are to support working capital demands, meet debt service requirements and support our capital allocation strategy, which includes acquisitions, capital expenditures, and repurchases of the Company’s common stock, among others.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $14.0$17.3 million in the first threesix months of 2016 compared to cash used of $2.8$27.4 million in 2015. Net income was $12.0$28.7 million in the first quartersix months of 2016 compared to $9.2$21.2 million in 2015. Net of acquisitions, trade receivables increased $25.1$46.0 million in the first threesix months of 2016 and $31.7$12.6 million in the same period of 2015, reflecting increased sales levels in each of those periods, including the post-acquisition sales increases of the acquisitions completed in 2016, 2015 and 2014. In addition, operating cash flows related2014, as well as the timing of certain customer payments. Due to trade receivables in the first three months of 2015 was partially impacted by the timing of the end of our fiscal quarterquarters compared to the payment cycles of certain of our customers.customers, cash flows from operating activities do not reflect the receipt of $29.8 million and $3.8 million in cash payments on trade receivables on the day following the end of our fiscal quarters ended June 26, 2016 and June 28, 2015, respectively.   

 

 

 

Inventories, net of acquisitions, increased $1.7 million in the first three months of 2016 and $1.3 million in the comparable 2015 period, primarily reflecting higher sales volumes and related higher inventory levels associated with acquisitions completed in 2016, 2015 and 2014. We will continue to drive increased inventory turn levels in the remainder of 2016 as we continue to work together with key suppliers to match lead-time and minimum order requirements, although we may see fluctuations in inventory levels from quarter to quarter as a result of taking advantage of strategic buying opportunities.

The $18.9$21.2 million net increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the first threesix months of 2016 and the $12.1$6.1 million net increase in the comparable 2015 period, primarily reflected the increased level of business activity, the timing and impact of acquisitions, completed in 2015, and ongoing operating cash management.

The Company estimates that it will utilize a majority of the remaining state NOLs by the end of 2016. In 2016 and 2015, the Company made quarterly estimated tax payments consistent with its expected annual 2016 and 2015 federal and state income tax liability.

2015 Credit Facility

 

The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 28, 2015 (the “2015 Credit Agreement”), with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and a lender (“Wells Fargo”), and Fifth Third Bank (“Fifth Third”), Key Bank National Association (“Key Bank”), Bank of America, N.A. (“B of A”), and Lake City Bank as participants, to expand its senior secured credit facility to $250.0 million and extend its maturity to 2020 (the “2015 Credit Facility”). The 2015 Credit Facility initially was comprised of a $175.0 million revolving credit loan (the “2015 Revolver”) and a $75.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”). The 2015 Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s previous credit agreement entered into in 2012. The 2015 Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all personal property assets of the Company and any domestic subsidiary guarantors.

 

On August 31, 2015, the Company entered into a first amendment to the 2015 Credit Agreement to expand the 2015 Credit Facility to $300.0 million from $250.0 million by expanding the 2015 Revolver to $225.0 million.

 

At March 27,June 26, 2016, the Company had $67.0$64.3 million outstanding under the Term Loan and $175.2$197.4 million outstanding under the 2015 Revolver.

On July 26, 2016, the Company entered into a second amendment to the 2015 Credit Agreement to expand the 2015 Credit Facility to $360.0 million from $300.0 million by expanding the 2015 Revolver to $269.4 million and the Term Loan to $90.6 million, and to add 1st Source Bank as an additional participant.

 

Pursuant to the 2015 Credit Agreement, the financial covenants include: (a) a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio, measured on a quarter-end basis, not to exceed 3.00:1.00 for the 12-month period ending on such quarter-end; and (b) a required minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, measured on a quarter-end basis, of at least 1.50:1.00 for the 12-month period ending on such quarter-end.

 

As of and for the March 27,June 26, 2016 reporting date, the Company was in compliance with both of these financial debt covenants as required under the terms of the 2015 Credit Agreement. The required maximum consolidated total leverage ratio and the minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio compared to the actual amounts as of March 27,June 26, 2016 and for the fiscal period then ended are as follows:

Summary of Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations, which includes selling our products and collecting receivables, available cash reserves and borrowing capacity available under our 2015 Credit Facility. Our principal uses of cash are to support working capital demands, meet debt service requirements and support our capital allocation strategy, which includes acquisitions, capital expenditures, and repurchases of the Company’s common stock, among others.

 


As of June 26, 2016, prior to the expansion of the 2015 Revolver effective July 26, 2016, the availability under the 2015 Revolver was $26.3 million, including cash on hand. Borrowings under the 2015 Revolver and the Term Loan under the 2015 Credit Facility are subject to a maximum total borrowing limit of $300.0$360.0 million (effective as of July 26, 2016) and are subject to variable rates of interest. The unusedAs of July 29, 2016 (funding date of BHE acquisition), the availability under the Credit Facility as of March 27, 20162015 Revolver was $67.2$82.4 million, including cash on hand. For the first threesix months of 2016 and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants under the terms of the credit agreement in effect at each reporting date.


 

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and available borrowings under our 2015 Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months, exclusive of any acquisitions, based on our current cash flow budgets and forecasts of our short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

 

Our ability to access unused borrowing capacity under the 2015 Credit Facility as a source of liquidity is dependent on our maintaining compliance with the financial covenants as specified under the terms of the 2015 Credit Agreement. In 2016, our management team is focused on increasing market share, maintaining margins, keeping costs aligned with revenue, further improving operating efficiencies, managing inventory levels and pricing, and acquiring businesses and product lines that meet established criteria. In addition, future liquidity and capital resources may be impacted as we continue to make targeted capital investments to support new business and leverage our operating platform and to repurchase common stock in conjunction with the Company’s new stock repurchase program announced in January 2016.

 

Our working capital requirements vary from period to period depending on manufacturing volumes primarily related to the RV and MH industries, the timing of deliveries, and the payment cycles of our customers. In the event that our operating cash flow is inadequate and one or more of our capital resources were to become unavailable, we would seek to revise our operating strategies accordingly.Weaccordingly. We will continue to assess our liquidity position and potential sources of supplemental liquidity in view of our operating performance, current economic and capital market conditions, and other relevant circumstances.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies which are summarized in the MD&A and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

 

OTHER 

 

Seasonality

 

Manufacturing operations in the RV and MH industries historically have been seasonal and generally have been at the highest levels when the climate is moderate. Accordingly, the Company’s sales and profits had generally been the highest in the second and third quarters. Seasonal industry trends in the past several years have included the impact related to the addition of major RV manufacturer open houses for dealers to the September timeframe, whereby dealers are delaying purchases until new product lines are introduced at these shows. This has resulted in seasonal softening in the RV industry beginning in the third quarter and extending through October, and when combined with our increased concentration in the RV industry, led to a seasonal trend pattern in which the Company achieves its strongest sales and profit levels in the first half of the year.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Debt Obligations

 

At March 27,June 26, 2016, our total debt obligations under our 2015 Credit Agreement were under either LIBOR-based or prime rate-based interest rates. A 100 basis point increase in the underlying LIBOR and prime rates would result in additional annual interest cost of approximately $2.4$2.6 million, assuming average borrowings, including the Term Loan, subject to variable rates of $242.2$261.7 million, which was the amount of such borrowings outstanding (excluding the reclassification of deferred financing costs associated withrelated to the Term Loan) at March 27,June 26, 2016 subject to variable rates.

 

Inflation

 

The prices of key raw materials, consisting primarily of lauan, gypsum, particleboard, fiberglass and aluminum, are influenced by demand and other factors specific to these commodities, such as the price of oil, rather than being directly affected by inflationary pressures. Prices of certain commodities have historically been volatile and continued to fluctuate in the first quarterhalf of 2016. During periods of rising commodity prices, we have generally been able to pass the increased costs to our customers in the form of surcharges and price increases. However, there can be no assurance future cost increases, if any, can be partially or fully passed on to customers, or that the timing of such sales price increases will match raw material cost increases. We do not believe that inflation had a material effect on results of operations for the periods presented.
