The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and, its subsidiaries and, in the opinion of management, include all recurring adjustments and normal accruals necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and periods presented. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162018 (“20162018 Annual Report on Form 10-K”). Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected during the remainder of the current year or for any future period. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income is equal to the net income for all periods presented.
Cash equivalents
Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have a maturity of three months or less from the time of purchase. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had cash equivalents of $156.9 million and $146.1 million, respectively. Cash equivalents are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments, and were classified as Level 1 or Level 2 measurements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”).
Share repurchase program
In November 2018, the Company’s board of directors authorized a $75.0 million share repurchase program, which was to expire on November 20, 2019. During October 2019, the Company’s board of directors authorized extending this share repurchase program for one year, such that it will expire on November 20, 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, utilizing cash from operations, the Company repurchased 1.0 million shares at a weighted average price of $17.11 per share for a total cost of $16.4 million. These repurchased shares are available for future issuance and are reflected as treasury stock, at cost, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had approximately $55.7 million of capacity remaining under the current share repurchase authorization.

Statement of cash flows
Proceeds from revolving line of credit and repayments of proceeds from revolving line of credit as presented on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows includes all cash activities and transactions between the Company and its associated lenders in relation to the revolving line of credit, excluding interest and fees, and is specifically inclusive of operating cash receipts that are automatically applied to the revolving line of credit pursuant to a cash sweep agreement. See Note 6 for further details on the Company’s revolving line of credit.

Prior Period Misstatement
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company identified that a former credit manager within one of its local operations violated the Company’s credit policy by intentionally misapplying certain customer payments, both within a single customer balance as well as across multiple customer balances, and created inappropriate debit memos, all with the intent to manipulate the aging of certain unpaid customer invoices. These inappropriate activities resulted in an understatement of the Company’s provision for doubtful accounts in previously issued annual and interim financial statements (the “Prior Period Misstatement”). The Company


has corrected for such Prior Period Misstatement by recording, during the three months ended June 30, 2019 (which is included in the nine months ended September 30, 2019), an out of period bad debt expense of approximately $4.3 million in selling, general and administrative expenses and a corresponding decrease to accounts receivable, net of allowances. The Company has concluded that the financial impact of the Prior Period Misstatement is not material to any of its previously issued financial statements and that the correction of such Prior Period Misstatement is not material to either the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or to the expected financial results for the year ending December 31, 2019.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In July 2015,February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 requires that inventory within the scope of the guidance be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Prior to the issuance of the standard, inventory was measured at the lower of cost or market, where market was defined as replacement cost, with a ceiling of net realizable value and floor of net realizable value less a normal profit margin. Inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) and the retail inventory method are not impacted by the new guidance. Prospective application is required and early adoption is permitted. ASU 2015-11 became effective for the Company’s annual and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2017. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”),2016-02, Leases, and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance within Accounting Standards Update 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Principal versus Agent Considerationsto provide additional clarification on specific topics (“ASU 2016-08”) issued in March 2016, Accounting Standards Update 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“ASU 2016-10”) issued in April 2016, Accounting Standards Update 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU 2016-12”) issued in May 2016 and Accounting Standards Update 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2016-20”) issued in December 2016 (ASU 2014-09, ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-12 and ASU 2016-20 collectively2016-02” or “Topic 606”842”). Topic 606 provides a comprehensive revenue recognition model requiring companies to recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. In July 2015, the FASB voted to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year, and therefore, the standard is effective for the Company’s annual and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2018. The guidance permits the use of either a full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. We expect to adopt the standard on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method, which recognizes the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard in retained earnings on the date of adoption, with the option to utilize certain practical expedients as defined in Topic 606. We do not expect the adoption of the standard to have a material impact on the timing of revenue recognition nor the amount of revenue recognized


from our building products contracts. Revenue for our building products contracts will continue to be recognized at a point in time, when control of the promised goods is transferred to our customers, with the exception of certain product offerings which are customized to customer specifications and meet the criteria to be recognized over time, which is consistent with the Company’s current accounting. We are continuing to evaluate the impact of the standard on our contracts with a service element but based on our current assessment, we expect that revenue for our construction services contracts will generally continue to be recognized over time as the Company satisfies the performance obligations in the contracts. We also continue to evaluate the disclosure requirements of the standard, which are expected to be significant and incremental to the current disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement.statement of operations. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019 by recording ROU assets for its operating leases totaling approximately $110 million and corresponding lease liabilities totaling approximately $115 million. The impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 was not material to the Company’s results of operations or cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. See Note 5 for further details.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance to provide additional clarification on specific topics (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company’s annual and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on our financial statements. As a lessee, certain of our various leases under existing guidance are classified as operating leases that are not recorded on the balance sheet but are recorded in the statement of operations as expense is incurred. Upon adoption of the standard, we will be required to record substantially all leases on the balance sheet as a ROU asset and a lease liability. The timing of expense recognition and classification in the statement of operations could change based on the classification of leases as either operating or financing.

In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 was issued to decrease the diversity in practice of how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows by providing guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. ASU 2016-15 is effective for the Company’s annual and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2018,2020, with early adoption permitted andbeginning January 1, 2019.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires computation of the implied fair value of a reporting unit'sunit’s goodwill. The amount of a goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit'sunit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for the Company'sCompany’s annual goodwill impairment test and any interim tests during the Company'sCompany’s annual and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. Prospective application is required.

3.    Acquisitions
For all acquisitions, the Company allocates the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition based on the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the fair value of the purchase consideration over the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Management makes significant estimates and assumptions when determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. These estimates include, but are not limited to, discount rates, projected future net sales, projected future expected cash flows and useful lives.

The purchase price allocations for the 2019 Acquisitions are preliminary and based upon all information available to the Company at the present time, and are subject to change. The Company is in the process of finalizing its valuation of the acquired intangible assets, property and equipment and inventory, and therefore, the initial purchase accounting for the 2019 Acquisitions is not complete.

Adoption of BMHC ERP SystemTopic 842
During 2013, Building Materials Holding Corporation (“BMHC” or “Legacy BMHC”) selected a new third-party software vendor for its planned Enterprise Resource Planning (“New ERP”) system and began incurring costs related to design, development and implementation of the New ERP. BMHC also began paying an annual licensing fee. During March 2016,On January 1, 2019, the Company decidedadopted Topic 842 by applying the guidance at adoption date. As a result, the comparative information as of December 31, 2018 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 has not been adjusted and continues to integrate all operationsbe reported under ASC 840, Leases (“ASC 840”). The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the Enterprise Resource Planning system utilized by Stock Building Supply Holdings, Inc. (“SBS” and the “Legacy SBS ERP system”) and to discontinue use of the New ERP. In connection with this decision,transition guidance within Topic 842, which allowed the Company recorded asset impairment chargesto carry forward its identification of approximately $11.9 million incontracts that are or contain leases, its historical lease classification and its accounting for initial direct costs for existing leases. The impact of adopting Topic 842 was not material to the Company’s results of operations or cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Beginning January 1, 2019, the Company recognized ROU assets and lease liabilities for the Company’s operating leases on its unaudited condensed consolidated statementbalance sheets. ROU assets for the Company’s operating leases are presented within operating lease right-of-use assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, while the lease liabilities for the Company’s operating leases are presented within operating lease liabilities, with a current and long-term portion. Upon adoption of operationsTopic 842, the balances at the adoption date of prepaid and accrued rent, lease incentives and unamortized assets and liabilities related to favorable and unfavorable leases were reclassified and are now presented within operating lease right-of-use assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Refer to further discussion of the Company’s ROU assets and lease liabilities below. The Company’s accounting for its historical capital leases, which are now presented as finance leases under Topic 842, remained substantially unchanged.

Lease Arrangements
The Company has operating and finance leases primarily for its facilities, office space, land, fleet vehicles and equipment. Many of the Company’s leases are noncancellable and typically have an initial lease term of five to ten years, and most provide options at the Company’s election to renew for specified periods of time. The Company’s leases generally provide for fixed annual rentals. Certain of the Company’s leases include provisions for escalating rent, as an example, based on changes in the consumer price index. Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are initially measured using the index or rate in effect at lease commencement. Most of the Company’s leases require it to pay taxes, insurance and maintenance expenses associated with the properties. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which for all such leases are generally accounted for separately. The Company has elected the short-term lease exception under Topic 842 for all leases and as such, leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the


unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes lease expense for short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As the Company’s leases generally do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and any initial direct costs incurred. The Company’s lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

WeThe Company had 0 outstanding borrowings under the Revolver of $51.8 million withand net availability of $256.4$367.8 million as of September 30, 2017.2019. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding LIBOR Rate borrowings of $40.0 million was 2.74% and the interest rate on Base Rate borrowings of $11.8 million was 4.75% as of September 30, 2017. WeCompany had $66.8$56.1 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2017.2019.

11.12.    Earnings Per Share
Basic net income per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting weighted average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of potential common shares, determined using the treasury-stock method. For purposes of the diluted EPS calculation, stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards are considered to be potential common shares. Performance-based restricted stock units are not included in the calculation of diluted EPS until they are contingently issuable.
The basic and diluted EPS calculations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172019 and 20162018 are presented below:

Overview
We are one of the leading providers of diversified building products and services in the U.S. residential construction market. Our objective is to provide best-in-class customer service and value-added products to our customers, which are primarily single- and multi-family home builders and professional remodelers. Our product offerings include lumber and lumber sheet goods and an array of value-added products including millwork, doors, windows and structural components such as engineered wood products, floor and roof trusses and wall panels. OurWe believe our whole-house framing solution, Ready-Frame®, which is one of our fastest growing product offerings, saves builders both time and money and improves job site safety. We also offer our customers important services such as design, product specification, installation and installation management.


The 18 states in which we operate accounted for approximately 64%66% of 20162018 U.S. single-family housing permits according to the U.S. Census Bureau. In these 18 states, we operate in 4345 metropolitan areas.


Our net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased 7.3%2019 decreased 2.6% compared to the prior year period. Our gross marginprofit as a percentage of sales (“gross margin”) was 23.8%26.4% for the three months ended September 30, 20172019 compared to 24.7%24.4% for the prior year period. We recorded income from operations of $33.3$49.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 20172019 compared to $33.7$49.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016.2018. See further discussion in “-Operating Results” below.
Factors Affecting Our Operating Results
Our operating results and financial performance are influenced by a variety of factors, including, among others, acquisitions, conditions in the housing market and economic conditions generally, changes in the cost of the products we sell (particularly commodity products), pricing policies of our competitors, production schedules of our customers and seasonality. Some of the more important factors are briefly discussed in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as supplemented by the additional discussion below.
Acquisitions
On March 27, 2017, theThe Company completed the acquisitionfollowing acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2019:

On January 14, 2019, the Company acquired substantially all of Code Plus,the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Barefoot, a truss manufacturer locatedsupplier of windows, exterior doors, hardware, specialty products and installation services in Martinsburg, West Virginia serving the Charlotte, North Carolina metropolitan area.
On February 8, 2019, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Locust Lumber, a supplier of lumber products and building materials primarily to custom homebuilders and professional remodeling contractors in the Charlotte, North Carolina metropolitan area.

The preliminary purchase price, in aggregate, for the 2019 Acquisitions was $90.9 million.

On March 1, 2018, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Shone Lumber, a supplier of building materials in the state of Delaware, for a purchase price of $7.1 million. On April 3, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of TexPly, a supplier of production millwork and doors in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, for a preliminary purchase price of $32.0$22.4 million.
Approximately $18.5

The 2019 Acquisitions increased sales approximately $38.7 million and $38.0 million of the sales increase for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively,2019, compared to the prior year period, is a result ofwhile the Code Plus2019 Acquisitions and TexPly acquisitions.Shone Lumber acquisition increased sales approximately $93.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the prior year period.
See Note 3 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of the Company’s 2017 acquisitions.2019 Acquisitions and acquisition of Shone Lumber.
Conditions in the housing and construction market
The building products supply and services industry is highly dependent on new single-family home and multi-family construction and repair and remodeling activity, which in turn are dependent upon a number of factors, including, among other things, interest rates,overall economic conditions. Unfavorable economic changes, both nationally and locally in our markets, could adversely affect consumer confidence, employment rates, foreclosure rates, housing inventory levels, housingspending, result in decreased demand the availability of land, the availability of construction financingfor homes and the health of the economy and mortgage markets.adversely affect our business. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, single-family housing starts in the South and West regions of the United States, which are our primary operating regions, increased approximately 11.2%5.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as2019 compared to the same period in the prior year.
Overall economic conditions in the markets where we operate
Economic changes both nationally and locally in our markets impact our financial performance. Unfavorable changes in demographics, credit markets, consumer confidence, health care costs, housing affordability, housing inventory levels, a weakening of the national economy or of any regional or local economy in which we operate and other factors beyond our control could adversely affect consumer spending, result in decreased demand for homes and adversely affect our business. We believe continued


employment growth, prospective home buyers’ access to financing and improved consumer confidence will be necessary to increase household formation rates. We believe improved household formation rates in turn will increase demand for housing and stimulate new construction.
Commodity nature of our products
Many of the building products we distribute, including lumber, oriented strand board (“OSB”), plywood and particleboard, are commodities that are widely available from other manufacturers or distributors with prices and volumes determined frequently based on participants’ perceptions of short-term supply and demand factors.
The following table reflects changes in the average composite framing lumber prices (per thousand board feet) and average composite structural panel prices (per thousand square feet). These prices represent transactions between manufacturers and their customers as reported by Random Lengths and may differ in magnitude or timing from the actual selling prices or cost of goods reported in our operating results. The average composite structural panel prices are based on index prices for OSB and plywood.

2017 versus 2016 2017 average price 2017 versus 2016 2017 average price2019 versus 2018 2019 average price 2019 versus 2018 2019 average price

Structural panel prices20.3% $468
 14.3% $423
(30.2)% $337
 (31.1)% $353
Periods of increasing prices provide the opportunity for higher sales and increased gross profit, while periods of declining prices may result in declines in sales and profitability. In particular, low market prices for wood products over a sustained period can adversely affect our financial condition, operating results and cash flows, as can excessive spikes in market prices. The impact of commodity price changes on our operating results is partially dependent on pricing commitments with our customers. For further discussion of the impact of commodity prices on historical periods, see “-Operating Results” below.
Consolidation of large homebuilders
Over the past ten years, the homebuilding industry has undergone consolidation and many larger homebuilders have increased their market share. We expect that trend to continue as larger homebuilders have better liquidity and land positions relative to the smaller, less capitalized homebuilders. Our focus is on maintaining relationships and market share with these customers while balancing the competitive pressures we face in our markets with certain profitability expectations. We expect that our ability to maintain strong relationships with the larger builders will be vital to our ability to expand into new markets as well as grow our market share. While we generate significant sales from these homebuilders, our gross margins on sales to them tend to be lower than our gross margins on sales to other market segments. This could impact our gross margins as homebuilding recovers if the market share held by the production homebuilders continues to increase.

Our ability to control expenses
We pay close attention to managing our working capital and operating expenses. We employ a LEAN process operating philosophy, which encourages continuous improvement in our core processes to minimize waste, improve customer service, increase expense productivity, improve working capital and maximize profitability and cash flow. We regularly analyze our workforce productivity to achieve the optimum, cost-efficient labor mix for our facilities. Further, we pay careful attention to our logistics function and have implemented GPS-enabled telematics technology across our delivery fleet to improve customer service and improve productivity of our shipping and handling costs.
Mix of products sold
We typically realize greater gross margins on more highly engineered and customized products, or ancillary products that are often purchased based on convenience and are therefore less price sensitive to our customers. For example, sales of lumber &and lumber sheet goods tend to generate lower gross margins due to their commodity nature and the relatively low switching costs of sourcing those products from different suppliers. Structural components and millwork, doors &and windows often generate higher gross margins relative to other products. Homebuilders often use structural components in order to realize increased efficiency and improved quality. We believe shortening cycle time from start to completion is a key goalFor further discussion of homebuilders duringthe impact of mix of products sold on historical periods, of strong consumer demand or limited availability of framing labor. As the residential new construction market continues to strengthen, we expect the use of structural components by homebuilders to increase.


see “-Operating Results” below.
Changes in customer sales mix
Our operating results may vary according to the amount and type of products we sell to each of our primary customer types: new single-family homebuilders, professional remodeling contractors and multi-family, builderscommercial and light commercial builders.other contractors. We tend to realize higher gross margins on sales to remodeling contractors due to the smaller product volumes purchased by those customers, as well as the more customized nature of the projects those customers generally undertake. Gross margins on sales to single-family, multi-family and light commercial customersour other primary customer types can vary based on a variety of factors, including the purchase volumes of the individual customer, the mix of products sold to that customer, the size and selling price of the project being constructed and the number of upgrades added to the project before or during its construction. factors.


Seasonality
Our first and fourth quarters have historically been, and are generally expected to continue to be, adversely affected by weather patterns in some of our markets, causing reduced construction activity. As a result, sales are usually lower in the first and fourth quarters than in the second and third quarters.

On December 1, 2015, in connection with the Merger, the Company entered into the Credit Agreementa senior secured credit agreement with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, as administrative agent, and certain other lenders. The Existing Credit Agreement, as amended, which includes the Revolver, has anwas amended on May 31, 2019 when the Company entered into the Third Amendment. The Third Amendment increased the aggregate commitment offrom $375.0 million andto $425.0 million. The Credit Agreement has a letters of credit sublimit of $100.0 million. The Revolver matures at the earlier of (i) December 1, 2020May 31, 2024 and (ii) the date that is three months prior to the maturity of the Senior Notes, or if the Senior Notes are refinanced or repaid, the date that is three months91 days prior to the new maturity date of the replacement notes or other indebtedness that replaced or refinanced the Senior Notes. The Revolver is subject to an asset-based borrowing formula on eligible accounts receivable, credit card receivables and inventory, in each case reduced by certain reserves.


Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest, at our option, at either the Base Rate (which means the higher of (i) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (ii) the LIBOR rate plus 1.0% or (iii) the prime rate) plus a Base Rate Margin (which ranges from 0.25% to 0.75%0.50% based on Revolver availability) or LIBOR plus a LIBOR Rate Margin (which ranges from 1.25% to 1.75%1.50% based on Revolver availability).
The Credit Agreement includes customary provisions for implementation of replacement rates for rate-based and LIBOR-based loans upon any phase-out of LIBOR. The fee on any outstanding letters of credit issued under the Revolver ranges from 0.75% to 1.25%, depending on whether the letters of credit are fully cash collateralized. The fee on the unused portion of the Revolver is 0.25%.

However, the covenant is only applicable if excess availability under the Credit Agreement is less than or equal to the greater of (i) $33.3$37.7 million and (ii) 10% of the line cap, and remains in effect until excess availability has been greater than the greater of (i) $33.3$37.7 million and (ii) 10% of the line cap for 30 consecutive days. While there can be no assurances, based upon our forecast, we do not expect the financial covenant to become applicable during the year endedending December 31, 2017.2019. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2017.2019.

ITEM 3     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes to the market risks as disclosed in the Company’s 20162018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
ITEM 4    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure controls and procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensureprovide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensureprovide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as well as other key members of our management. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2017.
Changes2019 as a result of the previously identified material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below.
There was no changeNotwithstanding the material weakness described below, management has concluded that our condensed consolidated financial statements included in our internal control overthis Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were not materially misstated and present fairly, in all material respects, the condensed consolidated financial reporting duringposition, results of operations and cash flows of the three months ended September 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitationsregistrant as of, and for the periods presented in control systemsthis report.
The design of any system of control is based upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated objectives under all future events, no matter how remote, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may not deteriorate. Because of their inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.


Previously identified material weakness in internal control over financial reporting
In connection with the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, management identified that a former credit manager within one of our local operations violated our credit policy by intentionally misapplying certain customer payments, both within a single customer balance as well as across multiple customer balances, and created inappropriate debit memos, all with the intent to manipulate the aging of certain unpaid customer invoices. The inappropriate activities resulted in an immaterial understatement of our provision for doubtful accounts in previously issued annual and interim financial statements.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We identified a design deficiency with respect to effective controls over the approval and issuance of debit memos and the application of customer payments to accounts receivable balances, and inadequate segregation of duties over the ability to create debit memos and apply customer payments by certain employees responsible for establishing and monitoring the valuation of accounts receivable balances. Management concluded these deficiencies constituted a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

The material weakness resulted in immaterial misstatements to our previously issued interim and annual consolidated financial statements impacting selling, general and administrative expenses and accounts receivable, net of allowances. We corrected for the Prior Period Misstatement by recording in the three months ended June 30, 2019 an out of period bad debt expense of approximately $4.3 million in selling, general and administrative expenses and a corresponding decrease to accounts receivable, net of allowances.





Remediation plan for material weakness
With the oversight of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, we are currently implementing actions to address the design deficiency in order to remediate the material weakness. The following describes the steps that we have taken to remediate the material weakness during the three months ended September 30, 2019:

We have restricted debit memo functionality within our primary ERP system by role and dollar limit authority, and have implemented additional monitoring and analytical controls performed by individuals who do not have conflicting access.
We have removed cash application access from our credit directors, and in markets where it is feasible, we have removed cash application access from our credit managers.
In markets where it is not feasible to remove cash application access from our credit managers due to resource limitations, we have implemented additional monitoring and analytical controls performed by individuals who do not have conflicting access.

We believe the measures described above will strengthen our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the identified material weakness. However, additional steps may be required and we may decide to take additional action to address control deficiencies or determine to modify certain of the remediation measures identified above. The material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time, which is expected to be by December 31, 2019, and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting
Other than with respect to the remediation actions described above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We are currently involved in various claims, legal proceedings and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. We are a defendant in various pending lawsuits, legal proceedings and claims arising from assertions of alleged product liability, warranty, casualty, construction defect, contract, tort, employment and other claims. We carry insurance in such amounts in excess of our self-insurance or deductibles as we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances although insurance may or may not cover any or all of our liabilities in respect of claims and lawsuits. We do not currently believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or operating results.

The EPA has asserted that the alleged violations may subject us to administrative or civil penalties. We are in discussions with the EPA to explore a potential resolution of this matter. We are unable to predict the outcome of this matter, including potential administrative or civil penalties, remedial measures, or other relief, if any, or the potential impact on operations of the Everett facility, including increased capital or operational costs, if any.
