JELD-WEN HOLDING, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1. Description of Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Nature of Business – JELD-WEN Holding, Inc. (“JWH”), along with its subsidiaries, is a vertically integrated global manufacturer and distributor of windows and doors that derives substantially all of its revenues from the sale of its door and window products. Unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, all references in these notes to “JELD-WEN”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company” are to JELD-WEN Holding, Inc. and its subsidiaries.


We have facilities located in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Australia, Asia, Mexico, and South America, and our products are marketed primarily under the JELD-WEN brand name in the U.S. and Canada and under JELD-WEN and a variety of acquired brand names in Europe, Australia and Asia.


Our revenues are affected by the level of new housing starts and remodeling activity in each of our markets. Our sales typically follow seasonal new construction and repair and remodeling industry patterns. The peak season for home construction and remodeling in many of our markets generally correspondcorresponds with the second and third calendar quarters, and therefore, sales volume is typically higher during those quarters. Our first and fourth quarter sales volumes are generally lower due to reduced repair and remodeling activity and reduced activity in the building and construction industry as a result of colder and more inclement weather in certain of our geographic end markets.
Basis of Presentation – The statement of operations for the three and six months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017 has been revised to reflect the correction of certain errors and other accumulated misstatements as described in our Form 10-K - Note 36 - Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements. The errors did not impact the subtotals for cash flows from operating activities, investing activities or financing activities for any of the periods affected. We do not believe the errors corrected were material to our previously issued financial statements and are summarized in the “Revision” column in the table below.
As a result of our retrospective application of ASU 2017-07,Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, we reclassified certain amounts in our statement of operations for the three and six months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017 as noted below. See Recently“Recently Adopted Accounting Standards section below for additional information.
In addition, to conform with current periodcurrent-period presentation of revenues, we reclassified certain amounts in our statement of operations for the three and six months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017. The reclassification was not material to our previously issued financial statements and is summarized in the “Reclassification” column in the table below.

See Recently“Recently Adopted Accounting Standards section below for further detail.additional information. In addition, certain amounts within the notes accompanying these unaudited consolidated financial statements and balances in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform with current periodcurrent-period presentation.


All U.S. dollar and other currency amounts, except per share amounts, are presented in thousands unless otherwise noted.

Ownership – On October 3, 2011, Onex invested $700.0 million in return for shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Concurrent with the investment, Onex provided $171.0 million in the form of a convertible bridge loan due in April 2013. In October 2012, Onex invested an additional $49.8 million in return for additional shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to fund an acquisition. In April 2013, the $71.6 million outstanding balance of the convertible bridge loan was converted into additional shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. In March 2014, Onex purchased $65.8 million in common stock from another investor. As part of the IPO, Onex sold 6,477,273 shares of our common stock. In May 2017 and November 2017, Onex sold a total of 15,693,139 and 14,211.73614,211,736 shares of our common stock, respectively, in secondary offerings. We did not receive any proceeds from the shares of common stock sold by Onex, in any offering. As of March 31,June 30, 2018, Onex owned approximately 30.9%31.3% of our outstanding shares.shares of common stock.
Stock Split – On January 3, 2017, our shareholders approved amendments to our then-existing certificate of incorporation increasing the authorized number of shares and effecting an 11-for-1 stock split of our then-outstanding common stock and Class B-1 Common Stock. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts for all periods presented in these unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted to reflect this stock split.
Stock Conversion and Initial Public Offering – Prior to the IPO, we had the authority to issue up to 8,750,000 shares of preferred stock, par value of $0.01, of which 8,749,999 shares were designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and one share was designated as Series B Preferred Stock. Series A Convertible Preferred Stock consisted of 2,922,634 shares of Series A-1 Stock, 208,760 shares of Series A-2 Stock, 843,132 shares of Series A-3 Stock, and 4,775,473 shares of Series A-4 Stock.
On February 1, 2017, immediately prior to the closing of our IPO, the outstanding shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and all accumulated and unpaid dividends converted into 64,211,172 shares of our common stock, and all of the outstanding shares of our Class B-1 Common Stock converted into 309,404 shares of our common stock. In addition, the one outstanding share of our Series B Preferred Stock was canceled. We filed our Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and our Bylaws became effective, each as contemplated by the registration statement we filed as part of our IPO. The Charter, among other things, provided that our authorized capital stock consists of 900,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share and 90,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share.


On February 1, 2017, we closed our IPO and received $472.4 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts, fees and commissions and $7.9 million of offering expenses from the issuance of 22,272,727 shares of our common stock.

Share Repurchases– In April 2018, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $250 million of our common stock. The repurchased shares are retired, and the excess of the repurchase price over the par value of the shares is charged to retained earnings.
Back to top

Fiscal Year– We operate on a fiscal calendar year, and each interim periodquarter is comprised of two 4-week periods and one 5-week period, with each week ending on a Saturday. Our fiscal year always begins on January 1 and ends on December 31. As a result, our first and fourth quarters may have more or fewer days included than a traditional 91-day fiscal quarter.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes. Significant items that are subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, long-lived assets including goodwill and other intangible assets, employee benefit obligations, income tax uncertainties, contingent assets and liabilities, provisions for bad debt, inventory, warranty liabilities, legal claims, valuation of derivatives, environmental remediation and claims relating to self-insurance. Actual results could differ due to the uncertainty inherent in the nature of these estimates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. The ASU adds various SEC paragraphs pursuantamendments in this update provide guidance on when to the issuance of the December 2017 SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cutsrecord and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”), which was effective immediately. The SEC issued SAB 118 to address concerns about reporting entities’ ability to timely comply with the accounting requirements to recognize all of thedisclose provisional amounts for certain income tax effects of the Tax ActAct. The amendments also require any provisional amounts or subsequent adjustments to be included in the period of enactment. SAB 118 allows disclosurenet income from continuing operations. Additionally, this ASU discusses required disclosures that timely determination of some or all of the income tax effects froman entity must make with regard to the Tax ActAct. This ASU is incomplete by the due date of the financial statements and if possibleeffective immediately as new information is available to provide a reasonable estimate.adjust provisional amounts that were previously recorded. We have accounted for the tax effects of the Tax Act under the guidance of SAB 118 on a provisional basis. Our accounting for certain income tax effects is incomplete, but we have determined reasonable estimates for those effects and have recorded provisional amounts in our consolidated financial statements as of March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. We expect to complete our analysis within the measurement period in accordance with SAB 118.


In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The ASU provides guidance aboutas to which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. We adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2018 and the adoption of this standard did not impact our unaudited consolidated financial statements; however, modification accounting is now

required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, which changes how employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement benefit plans present the net periodic benefit cost in the income statement. We adopted this ASU using the retrospective transition method in the first quarter of 2018 and applied the practical expedient that permits an employer to use the amounts disclosed in its pension and other postretirement benefit plan note for the prior comparative periods as the estimation basis for applying the retrospective presentation requirements. We report the service cost component of the net periodic pension and post-retirement costs in the same line item in the statement of operations as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the employees during the period for both our U.S. and Non-U.S. plans. The other components of net periodic pension and post-retirement costs are presented in other income in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations. We adjusted the unaudited consolidated statements of operations in all comparative periods presented as noted in “Basis of presentation”Presentation”, above.


In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this ASU provide new guidance to determine when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. The guidance requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in an identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If this threshold is met, the set of transferred assets is not a business. If the threshold is not met, the entity then must evaluate whether the set includes, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. This ASU removes the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. The amendments also narrow the definition of the term output so that the term is consistent with how outputs are described in Topic 606. We adopted this standard prospectively in the first quarter of 2018.


In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. The standard requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The amendments in this update eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. The amendments do not include new disclosure requirements; however, existing disclosure requirements might be applicable when accounting for the current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. We adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2018 on a modified retrospective basis and the adoption did not have a material impact on our unaudited consolidated financial statements.



In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This ASU enhances the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information by requiring equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. It simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment and eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities. It also requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income (loss) the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments and requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements. We adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2018 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, eliminates the diversity in practice related to the classification of certain cash receipts and payments for debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, the maturing of a zero-coupon bond, the settlement of contingent liabilities arising from a business combination, proceeds from insurance settlements, distributions from certain equity method investees and beneficial interest obtained in a financial asset securitization. ASU No. 2016-18, Topic 230: Restricted Cash, requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. We elected to early adopt these ASUs using the retrospective transition method in the quarter ended December 31, 2017 and adjusted the consolidated statements of cash flows in all comparative periods presented. The adjustments to the prior period statements of cash flows are as follows:

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606) as modified by subsequently issued ASU 2016-08 - Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) and ASUs 2015-14, 2016-10, 2016-12 and 2016-20 (collectively ASU 2014-09). ASU 2014-09 superseded existing revenue recognition standards with a single model unless those contracts were within the scope of other standards. ASC 606 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires revenue to be recognized in a manner to depict the transfer of goods or services and satisfaction of performance obligations to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services.
We adopted ASU No. 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2018, using the modified retrospective transition practical expedient that allows us to evaluate the impact of contracts as of the Adoption Date rather than evaluating the impact of the contracts at the time they occurred prior to the Adoption Date. There was no material effect associated with the election of this practical expedient. As a practical expedient, shipping and handling fee revenues and the related expenses are reported as fulfillment revenues and expenses for all customers. Therefore, all shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight are accounted for as a fulfillment costs and are included in cost of sales. As a practical expedient, we do not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when we expect, at contract inception, that the period between our transfer of a promised product or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that product or service will be one year or less. We do not typically include extended payment terms in our contracts with customers. We have also elected not to provide the remaining performance obligations disclosures related to service contracts in accordance with the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-55-18. We recognize revenue in the amount to which the entity has a right to invoice and have adopted this election to not provide the remaining performance obligations related to service contracts. See Note 15 - Revenue Recognition for additional information.
Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet AdoptedIn June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 - Compensation - Stock Compensation Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services. Under ASU 2018-07, most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
Back to top

Early adoption is permitted for any interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income, which allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for any interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. We are currently evaluating the potential impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The targeted amendments help simplify certain aspects of hedge accounting and result in a more accurate portrayal of the economics of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. For cash flow and net investment hedges as of the adoption date, the guidance requires a modified retrospective approach. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.


In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. To simplify the measurement of goodwill impairments, this ASU eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test, which required the calculation of the implied fair value of goodwill. Instead, under the amendments in this ASU, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair

value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. The guidance will be effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from leases on the balance sheet and retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous lease guidance. The accounting standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently identifying our leases as that term is defined in the standard and assessing the impact of the standard on our financial statements. We continue evaluating the transition guidance and practical expedients as they are issued, but we have not decided on the utilization of practical expedients. However, the adoption of this standard will result in the recognition of a lease liability and related right-of-use asset and will materially impact our balance sheet.


With the exception of the new standards discussed above, there have been no other recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2018 that are of significance or potential significance to us.


Note 2. Acquisitions


For the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2018, we completed the following acquisitions:

In April 2018, we acquired the assets of D&K, a long-standing supplier of cavity sliders to our Corinthian Doors business. D&K is now part of our Australasia segment.
In March 2018, we acquired the remaining issued and outstanding shares and membership interests of ABS, a premier supplier of value-added services for the millwork industry located in Sacramento, California. ABS is now part of our North America segment.


In February 2018, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of A&L, a leading manufacturer of residential aluminum windows and patio doors. A&L is now part of our Australasia segment.


In February 2018, we acquired the Domoferm Group of companies from Domoferm International GmbH. The Domoferm Group of companies is a leading provider of steel doors, steel door frames, and fire doors for commercial and residential markets. Domoferm is now part of our Europe segment.

Preliminary goodwill of $62.4$64.7 million, calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets, represents operational efficiencies and sales synergies, and no amount is expected to be tax-deductible. The intangible assets include tradenames, software, patents and customer relationships and will be amortized over a preliminary estimated weighted average amortization period of 19 years. Acquisition-related costs of $2.3$1.4 million and $3.7 million were expensed as incurred and are included in SG&A expense in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2018. The contingent consideration relating to the A&L acquisition iswas based on underlying business performance through June 2018, to beand was paid in the third quarter of 2018. The contingent liability is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our unaudited consolidated balance sheet. The gain on previously held shares relates to a remeasurement of our existing 50% ownership interest to fair value for one of the recent acquisitions. For the 2018 acquisitions, net revenues and net loss since their date of acquisition were $190.0 million and $5.2 million, respectively.


We evaluated these acquisitions quantitatively and qualitatively and determined them to be insignificant both individually and in the aggregate. Therefore, thecertain pro forma disclosures and sales and profits attributable to acquisitions under ASC 805-10-50 have been omitted.


During the second and third quarters of 2017, we completed three acquisitions for total consideration of approximately $131.7 million, net of cash acquired. The excess purchase price over the preliminary fair value of net assets acquired of $24.4$24.5 million and $46.7 million was allocated to goodwill and intangible assets, respectively. Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations and represents operational efficiencies and sales synergies, and $14.0$13.9 million is expected to be tax-deductible. The intangible assets include tradenames, software, and customer relationships and will be amortized over an estimated weighted average amortization period of 18 years. There were noimmaterial acquisition-related costs in the three and six months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017. In 2017, the measurement period adjustment reduced the preliminary allocation of goodwill by $23.6 million and increased the preliminary allocation of property and equipment, intangible assets, and cash consideration, net of cash acquired by $16.7 million, $16.3 million and $7.7 million, respectively, with the remaining preliminary allocation changes related to other working capital accounts. In 2018, the measurement period adjustment increased the

preliminary allocation of goodwill by $0.3$0.4 million with the offset to working capital accounts. As of June 30, 2018, the purchase price allocation was considered complete for the Mattiovi acquisition.

The results of the acquisitions are included in our unaudited consolidated financial statements from the date of their acquisition.


Note 3. Accounts Receivable


We sell our manufactured products to a large number of customers, primarily in the residential housing construction and remodel sectors, broadly dispersed across many domestic and foreign geographic regions. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers to minimize credit risk. We do not usually require collateral for accounts receivable but will require advance payment, guarantees, a security interest in the products sold to a customer, and/or letters of credit in certain situations. Customer accounts receivable converted to notes receivable are primarily collateralized by inventory or other collateral.


At March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $5.1$5.4 million and $4.4 million, respectively.

No impairments were recorded forduring the three and six months ended March 31, 2018 and AprilJuly 1, 2017, respectively.2017.


In November of 2016, we entered into a 17-year, non-cancelable build-to-suit arrangement for a corporate headquarters facility in Charlotte, North Carolina that is accounted for under the build-to-suit guidance contained in ASC 840, Leases. The lease commenced upon completion of construction in February 2018. Since we were involved in the construction of structural improvements prior to the commencement of the lease and took some level of construction risk, we were considered the accounting owner of the assets and land during the construction period. Further, since certain terms of the lease do not meet normal sale-leaseback criteria, we are considered the accounting owner after the construction period as well. During the first quarter of 2018, we recorded $20.0 million of build-to-suit assets included in Property and equipment, net, and set up a corresponding financial obligation of $20.4 million included in long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheet. In the second quarter of 2018, a tenant improvement allowance was received, increasing long-term debt by $4.2 million. The build-to-suit asset is being depreciated over its estimated useful life and lease payments are being applied as debt service against the liability.

Note 10. Warranty Liability


Warranty terms vary from one year to lifetime on certain window and door components. Warranties are normally limited to servicing or replacing defective components for the original customer. Some warranties are transferable to subsequent owners, and are either limited to 10 years from the date of manufacture, or require pro-rata payments from the customer. A provision for estimated warranty costs is recorded at the time of sale based on historical experience, and we periodically adjust these provisions to reflect actual experience.

Summaries of our outstanding debt agreements as of March 31,June 30, 2018 are as follows:
Senior Notes – In December 2017, we issued $800.0 million of unsecured Senior Notes in two tranches: $400.0 million bearing interest at 4.625% and maturing in December 2025, and $400.0 million bearing interest at 4.875% and maturing in December 2027 in a private placement for resale to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Each tranche was issued at par. Interest is payable semiannually in arrears each June and December through maturity. Debt issuance costs of $11.7 million are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the notes using the effective interest method.
Term Loans
U.S. Facility - In November 2016, we borrowed an additional $375.0 million, and refinanced and amended certain terms and provisions of the Term Loan Facility. The proceeds, along with cash on hand and borrowings on our ABL Facility, were used to fund a distribution to shareholders and holders of equity awards. We incurred $8.1 million of debt issuance costs related to this amendment.
In February 2017, we prepaid $375.0 million of outstanding principal with the proceeds from our IPO. As a result, we recorded a proportional write-off of $5.2 million of unamortized debt issuance costs and $0.9 million of original issue discount to interest expense.
Back to top


In March 2017, we amended the facility to reduce the interest rate and remove the cap on the amount of cash used in the calculation of net debt. The offering price of the amended term loans was par. Pursuant to this amendment, certain lenders converted their commitments in an aggregate amount, along with an additional commitment advanced by a replacement lender. We incurred $1.1 million of debt issuance costs related to this term loan amendment, which is included as an offset to long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets.
In December 2017, along with the issuance of the Senior Notes, we re-priced and amended the facility and repaid $787.4 million of outstanding borrowings with the net proceeds from the Senior Notes which resulted in a principal balance of $440.0 million. In connection with the debt extinguishment, we expensed the related unamortized original discount of $5.9 million, unamortized debt issuance costs of $15.4 million, and bank fees of $1.7 million as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statements of operations.
The re-priced term loans were offered at par, will mature in December 2024 (extended from July 2022), and bear interest at LIBOR (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus a margin of 1.75% to 2.00%, determined by our corporate credit ratings. This compares favorably to the previous rate of LIBOR (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus a margin of 2.75% to 3.00%, determined by our net leverage ratio, under the prior amendment. This amendment also modifies other terms and provisions, including providing for additional covenant flexibility and additional capacity under the facility, and conforming to certain terms and provisions of the Senior Notes. This amendment requires that 0.25% (or $1.1 million) of the aggregate principal amount be repaid quarterly prior to the final maturity date, resulting in an outstanding principal balance of $438.9$437.8 million as of March 31,June 30, 2018. The facility is secured by the same collateral and guaranteed by the same guarantors as it was under each of the prior amendments. We incurred $0.7 million of debt issuance costs related to this amendment, which are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the facility using the effective interest method.
Australian Facility - In February 2018, we amended the Australian Senior Secured Credit Facility to include an additional AUD $55.0 million floating rate term loan facility at BBSY plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.10% which matures in February 2023. In addition, we pay a line fee of 1.25% on the unused portion of the commitment amount. This facility is secured by guarantees of JWA and had an outstanding principal balance of $38.4$36.9 million as of March 31,June 30, 2018.
Other Acquired Facilities - During Q1 2018, we acquired a $11.6 million term loan facility associated with our ABS acquisition, which consisted of five separate term loans with maturity dates from March 2019 to December 2022.  These loans bear interest at LIBOR plus margins ranging from 1.85% to 2.00%.  Principal is required to be repaid monthly in equal installments through each loan’s maturity. As of March 31June 30, 2018, we had $11.6$10.6 million outstanding under this facility.
In addition, we acquired $8.2$7.6 million in various term loan facilities associated with our Domoferm acquisition. Maturities of these term loans are from 2021 through 2025 with both fixed and variable interest rates ranging from 0.78%1.25% to 3.65%. Included within this is a $2.2$2.1 million obligation under a sale and leaseback agreement relating to the land and buildings at the Gänserndorf, Austria facility, which matures in 2021. As of March 31June 30, 2018, we had $8.1$6.2 million outstanding under these facilities.
Revolving Credit Facilities


ABL Facility - In December 2017, along with the offering of the Senior Notes and repricing of the Term Loan Facility, we amended our $300.0 million ABL Facility. The facility will mature in December 2022 (extended from October 2019) and bears interest primarily at LIBOR (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus a margin of 1.25% to 1.75%, determined by availability. This compares favorably to the rate of LIBOR (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.00% under the previous amendment. This amendment also makes certain adjustments to the borrowing base and modifies other terms and provisions, including providing for additional covenant flexibility and additional flexibility under the facility, and conforming to certain terms and provisions of the Senior Notes and Term Loan Facility. In connection with the amendment to the ABL Facility, we expensed $0.2 million of unamortized loan fees as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Debt issuance costs related to the ABL Facility are reclassified to other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, in proportion to the commitment amount, less loan utilization.
Extensions of credit under the ABL Facility are limited by a borrowing base calculated periodically based on specified percentages of the value of eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory and certain other assets, subject to certain reserves and other adjustments. We pay a fee between 0.25% to 0.375%0.38% on the unused portion of the commitments under

under the facility. As of March 31,June 30, 2018, we had $76.5$135.5 million in borrowings, $32.5$32.0 million in letters of credit and $157.2$124.3 million available under the ABL Facility.
The ABL Facility has a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio that we are obligated to comply with under certain circumstances. The ABL Facility has various non-financial covenants, including restrictions on liens, indebtedness, and dividends, customary representations and warranties, and customary events of defaults and remedies. The ABL Facility permits us to request commitment increases up to the greater of $100 million or the greatest amount by which the borrowing base has exceeded the maximum global credit amount at the end of any of the twelve fiscal months prior to the effective date of the commitment increase, subject to certain conditions.
Australia Senior Secured Credit Facility -In February 2018, we amended the Australia Senior Secured Credit Facility to provide for an AUD $15.0 million floating rate revolving loan facility, an AUD $12.0 million interchangeable facility for guarantees and letters of credit, an AUD $7.0 million electronic payaway facility, an AUD $2.5 million asset finance facility, an AUD $1.0 million commercial card facility and an AUD $5.0 million overdraft line of credit. Apart from the AUD $55.0 million floating rate term loan facility mentioned above, the Australia Senior Secured Credit Facility matures in June 2019. Loans under the revolving loan facility bear interest at BBSY plus a margin of 0.75%, and a line fee of 1.15% is also paid on the revolving facility limit. Overdraft balances bear interest at the bank’s reference rate minus a margin of 1.00%, and a line fee of 1.15% is paid on the overdraft facility limit. At March 31,June 30, 2018, we had AUD $15.0 million (or $11.5$11.1 million) available under the revolving loan facility, AUD $4.1$3.9 million (or $3.2$2.9 million) under the interchangeable facility, AUD $7.0 million (or $5.4$5.2 million) under the electronic payaway facility, AUD $2.5 million (or $1.9$1.8 million) under the asset finance facility, AUD $0.8 million (or $0.6 million) under the commercial card facility and AUD $5.0 million (or $3.8$3.7 million) available under the overdraft line of credit. The credit facility is secured by guarantees of the subsidiaries of JWA, fixed and floating charges on the assets of the JWA group, and mortgages on certain real properties owned by the JWA group. The agreement requires that JWA maintain certain financial ratios, including a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio and a maximum consolidated debt to EBITDA ratio. The agreement limits dividends and repayments of intercompany loans where the JWA group is the borrower and limits acquisitions without the bank’s consent.
Euro Revolving Facility - In January 2015, we entered into the Euro Revolving Facility, a €39 million revolving credit facility, which includes an option to increase the commitment by an amount of up to €10 million, with a syndicate of lenders and Danske Bank A/S, as agent. The Euro Revolving Facility matures on January 30, 2019. Loans under the Euro Revolving Facility bear interest at an IBOR, specific to the borrowing currency, (subject to a floor of 0.00%), plus a margin of 2.50%. A commitment fee of 1.00% is paid on the unutilized amount of the facility. As of March 31,June 30, 2018, we had no outstanding borrowings, €0.4€0.3 million (or $0.5$0.4 million) of bank guarantees outstanding, and €38.6€38.7 million (or $47.6$45.0 million) available under this facility. The facility requires JELD-WEN A/SApS to maintain certain financial ratios, including a maximum ratio of senior leverage to Adjusted EBITDA (as calculated therein), and a minimum ratio of Adjusted EBITDA (as calculated therein) to net finance charges. In addition, the facility has various non-financial covenants including restrictions on liens, indebtedness, and dividends, customary representations and warranties, and customary events of default and remedies.
Other Acquired Facilities - During Q1 2018, we acquired a $45.0 million revolving credit facility associated with our ABS acquisition. Loans under this facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.40% to 1.90% determined by the acquired company’s leverage. The acquired company had $29.4 million outstanding on the date of acquisition. This facility matures in July 2019. As of March 31,June 30, 2018, we had $29.4$31.0 million in outstanding borrowings, $2.8 million in letters of credit and $12.8$11.2 million available under this facility.
In addition, we acquired €9.2€8.5 million in various overdraft facilities associated with our Domoferm acquisition.

Note 12. Income Taxes


The effective income tax rate for continuing operations was (11.3)%39.5% and 20.4% for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to 27.5%27.9% for the three and six months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017. In accordance with ASC 740-270, we recorded tax benefitexpense of $4.0$23.2 million and $19.2 million from continuing operations in the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to a tax expense of $2.3$17.7 million and $20.0 million for the three monthscorresponding periods ended AprilJuly 1, 2017, respectively, by applying an estimated annual effective tax rate to our year-to-date income for includable entities during the respective periods. Our estimated annual effective tax rate for the current year includes the impact of the new tax on Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”).GILTI. We continue evaluating the accounting policy election for GILTI of either (1) treating taxes due for GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred or (2) factoring such amounts into our measurement of deferred taxes. The selection of an accounting policy will depend upon a detailed analysis of the additional guidance on the operation of the GILTI provisions provided by the U.S. Treasury and our global income and other tax attributes to determine the potential impact, if any, of these provisions. Any subsequent adjustments to this provisional estimate will be reflected on a current basis when determined. The application of the estimated annual effective tax rate in interim periods may result in a significant variation in the customary relationship between income tax expense and pretax accounting income due to the seasonality of our global business. Entities whichthat are currently generating losses and for which there is a full valuation allowance are excluded from the worldwide effective tax rate calculation and are calculated separately.

The impact of significant discrete items is separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur. The tax benefitexpense related to discrete items included in the tax provision for continuing operations for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 was $8.7$3.4 million compared to a tax benefit of $0.3$1.0 million for the three months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017. The discrete amounts for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 were comprised primarily of $7.1$2.7 million offor a net increase to uncertain tax benefit attributable to the write-off of the outside basis difference of our investment formerly held as an equity method investment upon acquisition of the remaining shares, and $1.8positions arising from certain tax examinations, including interest, $0.3 million of tax benefit attributable to stock compensation exercises and expirations, offset by tax expense of $0.2and $0.4 million attributable to current period interest expense on uncertain tax positions. The discrete benefit amounts for the three months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017 were comprised primarily of tax benefits attributable to a valuation allowance releasetax effect of $0.6deductions in excess of share-based compensation costs. The tax benefit related to discrete items included in the tax provision for continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $5.3 million, compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended July 1, 2017. The discrete amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were comprised primarily of $7.1 million attributable to the write-off of the outside basis difference of our Canadian subsidiary,investment formerly held as an equity method investment and $1.5 million attributable to stock compensation exercises and expirations, offset by tax expense of $0.3$2.7 million for a net increase to uncertain tax positions arising from certain tax examinations, including interest, and $0.6 million attributable to current period interest expense on uncertain tax positions. The discrete benefit amounts for the three and six months ended July 1, 2017 were comprised primarily of tax benefits attributable to the tax effect of deductions in excess of share-based compensation costs.

Under ASC 740-10, we provide for uncertain tax positions and the related interest expense by adjusting unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest accordingly. We recognize potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. We had unrecognized tax benefits of $13.0$13.9 million and $13.3 million as of March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.


In December 2017, the Tax Act was signed into law, which resulted in significant changes to U.S. tax rules. We recorded provisional estimates of the impacts of the Tax Act on our financial statements as of December 2017 in accordance with ASU 2018-05 and SAB 118 issued by the SEC. The direct impacts were due primarily to the change in the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 and the one-time deemed repatriation
Back to top

tax. As a result of the lowering of the U.S. federal tax rate, we revalued our net deferred tax assets in the U.S. reflecting the lower expected benefit in the U.S. in the future. This revaluation resulted in additional tax expense totaling approximately $21.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The one-time deemed repatriation tax, which effectively subjected our net aggregate historic foreign earnings to taxation in the U.S., resulted in a further tax charge of $11.3 million. During the fourth quarter of 2017, we undertook certain transactions whichthat involved the repatriation of certain earnings from foreign subsidiaries. While these transactions were not undertaken as a direct result of tax reform, the U.S. tax implications were heavily impacted due to the timing of the transactions and the measurement dates as outlined in the Tax Act. We recorded a net increase to tax expense of $65.8 million related to these transactions and their impacts under the Tax Act. We

are currently assessing the impact of this legislation on our consolidated financial statements for calendar year 2018 and beyond. We are not in a position as of March 31,June 30, 2018 to reflect any adjustments to our provisional estimates as we have not completed our analysis, and specific guidance related to the operation of certain of the provisions in the Tax Act has yet to be issued. We will complete our analysis over a one-year measurement period as outlined in SAB 118 issued by the SEC in December 2017, and any adjustments during this measurement period will be recorded in earnings from continuing operations.


Note 13. Segment Information

We report our segment information in the same way management internally organizes the business in assessing performance and making decisions regarding allocation of resources in accordance with ASC 280-10- Segment Reporting. We determined that we have three reportable segments, organized and managed principally by geographic region. Our reportable segments are North America, Europe and Australasia. We report all other business activities in Corporate and unallocated costs. Factors considered in determining the three reportable segments include the nature of business activities, the management structure accountable directly to the CODM, the discrete financial information available and the information regularly reviewed by the CODM. Management reviews net revenues and Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), adjusted for the following items: equity earnings of non-consolidated entities; income tax; depreciation and amortization; interest expense, net; impairment and restructuring charges; gain on previously held shares of equity investment; (gain) loss on sale of property and equipment; share-based compensation expense; non-cash foreign exchange transaction/translation (income) loss; other non-cash items; other items; and costs related to debt restructuring and debt refinancing.


Prior year balances have been revised with the activity being adjusted through the “Net revenues from external customers - North America” line below. See detail in Note 1 - Description of Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
The following tables set forth certain information relating to our segments’ operations.

Note 14. Capital Stock


On February 1, 2017, immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, the Company filed itsit’s Charter with the Delaware Secretary of State, and the Company’s Bylaws became effective, each as contemplated by the registration statement we filed in connection with our IPO. The Charter, among other things, provides that the Company’s authorized capital stock consists of 900,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share and 90,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share.


Preferred Stock – Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue Preferred Stock from time to time in one or more series and with such rights, privileges and preferences as the Board of Directors shallmay from time to time determine. We have not issued any shares of preferred stock.


Common Stock – As of December 31, 2016, we were governed by our pre-IPO charter, which provided the authority to issue 22,810,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.01 per share, of which 22,379,800 shares were designated common stock and 430,200 shares were designated as Class B-1 Common Stock. On January 3, 2017, our pre-IPO charter was amended authorizing us to issue 900,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.01 per share. Each share of common stock had the same rights, privileges, interest and attributes and was subject to the same limitations as every other share. Under our pre-IPO charter, each share of Class B-1 Common Stock was convertible at the option of the holder into shares of common stock at the same ratio on the date of conversion as a share of Series A-1 Stock would have been
Back to top

convertible on such date of conversion, assuming that no cash dividends had been paid on the Series A-1 Stock (or its predecessor security) since the date of initial issuance. Immediately prior to the closing of our IPO, all of the outstanding shares of Class B-1 Common Stock were converted into 309,404 shares of common stock.


Common stock includes the basis of shares outstanding plus amounts recorded as additional paid-in capital. Shares outstanding exclude the shares issued to the Employee Benefit Trust that are considered similar to treasury shares and total 193,941 shares at both March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 with a total original issuance value of $12.4 million.


On February 1, 2017, we closed our IPO and received $480.3 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions. Costs associated with our initial public offering of $7.9 million, including $5.9 million of capitalized costs included in “other assets” as of previous period end, were charged to equity upon completion of the IPO.


In April 2018, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $250 million of our common stock. Purchases are made in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations and may be funded from available liquidity including available cash or borrowings under existing or future credit facilities. The timing and amount of any repurchases of common stock will be based on JELD-WEN’s liquidity, general business and market conditions and other factors, including alternative investment opportunities. The term of the repurchase program extends through December 31, 2019. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we repurchased 1,643,917 shares of our common stock at an average purchase price per share of $28.58.

Note 15. Revenue Recognition


Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied. Generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of our products or services. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities (e.g., sales tax, value added tax, and other taxes) are excluded from revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. The expected costs associated with our base warranties and field service actions continue to be recognized as expense when the products are sold (see Note 10 - Warranty Liabilities). Since payment is due at or shortly after the point of sales,sale, the contract asset is classified as a receivable.



We disaggregate revenues from product sales and services based on geographical location. See Note 13 - Segment Information for further information on disaggregated revenue.


Deferred Revenue – We record deferred revenue when we collect pre-payments from customers for performance obligations we expect to fulfill through future performance of a service or delivery of a product. We classify our deferred revenue based on our estimate as to when we expect to satisfy the related performance obligations. Current deferred revenues are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and noncurrent deferred revenues are included in deferred credits and other liabilities in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets.


Significant changes in the deferred revenue balances during the period are as follows:

Note 16. Earnings (Loss) Per Share


Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net earnings per share is calculated by adjusting weighted average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common share equivalents outstanding for the period, determined using the treasury-stock method. Common stock options, unvested Common Restricted Stock Units and unvested Common Performance Share Units are considered to be common stock equivalents included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share.



The basic and diluted income (loss) per share calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and April 1, 2017 are presented below (in thousands, except share and per share amounts).:

Note 17. Stock Compensation


Prior to the IPO, our Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan, the “Stock Incentive Plan”, allowed us to offer common options, B-1 common options and common RSUs for the benefit of our employees, affiliate employees and key non-employees. Under the Stock Incentive Plan, we could award up to an aggregate of 2,761,000 common shares and 4,732,200 B-1 common shares. The Stock Incentive Plan provided for accelerated vesting of awards upon the occurrence of certain events. Through December 31, 2016, we issued 5,156,976 options and 385,220 RSUs under the Stock Incentive Plan.


In connection with our IPO, the Board adopted and our shareholders approved the JELD-WEN Holding, Inc. 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan, the “Omnibus Equity Plan”. Under the Omnibus Equity Plan, equity awards may be made in respect of 7,500,000 shares of our common stock. Under the Omnibus Equity Plan, awards may be granted in the form of options, RSUs, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, share awards, and performance-based awards (including performance share units and performance-based restricted stock).

Note 18. Impairment and Restructuring Charges


Closure costs and impairment charges for operations not qualifying as discontinued operations are classified as impairment and restructuring charges in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations.


In the second quarter of 2018, we incurred impairment and restructuring costs of $2.5 million, primarily due to a $2.4 million charge resulting from exiting several facilities in our Australasia segment and charges related to personnel restructuring of $0.7 million in our Europe and Corporate segments, offset by a favorable impact of $0.6 million in the North America segment primarily related to a reduction in reserve for an early lease termination. In the second quarter of 2017, we incurred impairment and restructuring costs of $0.6 million, primarily related to restructuring in our Europe segment.

In the first quarter of 2018, we incurred impairment and restructuring costs of $3.0 million, including $2.9 million for plant consolidations in Canada and Australia, $1.5 million for lease termination costs and reduction in workforce in the U.S. and $0.7 million of other costs offset by $2.1 million of reduction in expense due to a favorable tax ruling in the U.S. related to a prior divestiture. In the first quarter of 2017, we incurred impairment and restructuring costs of $1.2 million, primarily related to restructuring in our Europe segment.

Note 20. Derivative Financial Instruments
    
All derivatives are recorded as assets or liabilities in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets at their respective fair values. For derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting, changes in the fair value related to the effective portion of the hedge are recognized in earnings at the same time as either the change in fair value of the underlying hedged item or the effect of the hedged item’s exposure to the variability of cash flows. Changes in fair value related to the ineffective portion of the hedge are recognized immediately in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting, or fail to meet the criteria thereafter, are also recognized in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.


Foreign currency derivatives – We are exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations in certain countries in which we operate. In most of these countries, the exposure to foreign currency movements is limited because the operating revenues and expenses of our business units are substantially denominated in the local currency. To the extent borrowings, sales, purchases or other transactions are not executed in the local currency of the operating unit, we are exposed to foreign currency risk. In order toTo mitigate the exposure, we enter into a variety of foreign currency derivative contracts, such as forward contracts, option collars and cross-currency swaps. We use foreign currency derivative contracts, with a total notional amount of $91.0$77.5 million, in order to manage the effect of exchange fluctuations on forecasted sales, purchases, acquisitions, inventory and capital expenditures and certain intercompany transactions that are denominated in foreign currencies. We use foreign currency derivative contracts, with a total notional amount of $76.2$75.3 million, to hedge the effects of translation gains and losses on intercompany loans and interest. We also use foreign currency derivative contracts, with a total notional
Back to top


total notional amount of $141.3$136.8 million, to mitigate the impact to the consolidated earnings of the Company from the effect of the translation of certain subsidiaries’ local currency results into U.S. dollars. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Hedge accounting has not been elected for any foreign currency derivative contracts. We record mark-to-market changes in the values of these derivatives in other (income) expense. We recorded mark-to-market gains of $2.4$5.3 million and losses of $8.6$7.7 million in the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2018, respectively, and Aprilmark-to-market losses of $3.1 million and $11.7 million in the corresponding periods ended July 1, 2017, respectively.
    
Interest rate swap derivatives – We are exposed to interest rate risk in connection with our variable rate long-term debt. During the fourth quarter of 2014, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage this risk. These interest rate swaps were set to mature in September 2019 with half of the $488.3 million amortized aggregate notional amount having become effective in September 2015, and the other half having become effective in September 2016. On July 1, 2015, we amended our Term Loan Facility, and we received an additional $480.0 million in long-term borrowings. In conjunction with the issuance of the incremental term loan debt, we entered into additional interest rate swap agreements to manage our increased exposure to the interest rate risk associated with variable rate long-term debt. The additional interest rate swaps were set to mature in September 2019 with half of the $426.0 million aggregate notional amount having become effective in June 2016 and the other half having become effective in December 2016. In conjunction with the December 2017 refinancing of the Term Loan Facility (see Note 11 - Long-Term Debt), we terminated all of the interest rate swaps having outstanding notional amounts of $914.3 million and recorded a loss on termination of $3.6 million in consolidated other comprehensive income (loss), which will be amortized as interest expense over the life of the original interest rate swaps. The unamortized, pre-tax balance of this loss recorded in consolidated other comprehensive income (loss) was $2.9$2.4 million and $3.4 million at March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.


The interest rate swap agreements were designated as cash flow hedges and, prior to their termination in December 2017, effectively changed the LIBOR-based portion of the interest rate (or “base rate”) on a portion of the debt outstanding under our Term Loan Facility to the weighted average fixed rates per the time frames below:

We recorded $2.7$2.4 million and $5.1 million of interest expense deriving from the interest rate swaps that were in effect induring the three and six months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017.2017, respectively.

Note 21. Fair Value Measurements


We record financial assets and liabilities at fair value based on FASB guidance related to Fair Value Measurements.fair value measurements. The guidance requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.


A valuation hierarchy consisting of three levels was established based on observable and non-observable inputs. The three levels of inputs are:


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


Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-driven valuations whose significant inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.


Level 3 – Significant inputs to the valuation model that are unobservable.


The recorded fair values of these instruments were as follows:

Note 22. Fair Value of Financial Instruments


As part of our normal business activities we invest in financial assets and incur financial liabilities. Our recorded financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes receivable, notes payable and fair value of derivative instruments. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their recorded values as of March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 due to their short-term nature, variable interest rates and mark to marketmark-to-market accounting for derivative contracts. The fair values of long-term receivables were evaluated using a discounted cash flow analysis and long-term debt is valued using market price quotes. The fair value of long-term receivables approximated carrying values at both March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The fair value of our debt is estimated using quoted market prices when available. When quoted market prices are not available, fair value is estimated based on current market interest rates for debt with similar maturities and credit quality. Long-term debt indicated a fair value of $33.0$46.5 million lower and $8.7 million higher than the gross recorded value as of March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.


Note 23. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation – We are involved in various legal proceedings, encounteredclaims, and government audits arising in the normalordinary course of business and accrue forbusiness. We record our best estimate of a loss, amounts on legal mattersincluding estimated defense costs, when itthe loss is considered probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of liabilitysuch loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal judgments and estimated settlements have been included in accrued expenses in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets. When a loss is probable and there is a range of estimated loss with no best estimate within the range, we record the minimum estimated liability related to the lawsuit or claim. As additional information becomes available, we assess the potential liability related to pending litigation and claims and revise our accruals if necessary. Because of uncertainties related to the resolution of lawsuits and claims, the ultimate outcome may differ materially from our estimates.


OtherIn the opinion of management and based on the liability accruals provided, other than as described below, as of March 31,June 30, 2018, there are no current proceedings or litigation matters involving the Company or its property that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our unaudited consolidated financial position or cash flows, although they could have a material adverse impacteffect on our business, financial condition,operating results of operations or cash flows.for a particular reporting period.


Steves and Sons, Inc. vs JELD-WEN – We sell molded door skins to certain customers pursuant to long-term contracts, and these customers in turn use the molded door skins to manufacture interior doors and compete directly against us in the marketplace. We have given notice of termination of one of these contracts and, on June 29, 2016, the counterparty to the agreement, Steves and Sons, Inc. (“Steves”) filed a claim against JWI in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Richmond Division (“Eastern District of Virginia”). The complaint alleges that our acquisition of CMI, together with subsequent price increases and other alleged acts and omissions, violated antitrust laws and constituted a breach of contract and breach of warranty. The complaint seeks declaratory relief, ordinary and treble damages, and injunctive relief, including divestiture of certain assets acquired in the CMI acquisition.


On February 15, 2018, a jury in the Eastern District of Virginia returned a verdict that was unfavorable to JWI with respect to Steves’ claims that our acquisition of CMI violated Section 7 of the Clayton Act and that JWI breached the supply agreement between the parties. The verdict awards Steves $12,151,873$12.2 million for past damages under both the Clayton Act and breach of contract claims and $46,480,581$46.5 million in future lost profits under the Clayton Act claim. We expect that Steves will be required to elect to recover its past damages either under the Clayton Act claims or the contract claims, but not both. If a judgment is entered under the Clayton Act, any damages awarded will be trebled. In addition, if a judgment is entered under either theory in accordance with the verdict, Steves will be entitled to an award of attorney’s fees, which amounts have not yet been quantified. We have asserted a position that, because future lost profits were

awarded, Steves is not permitted to pursue its claim for divestiture of certain assets acquired in the CMI acquisition. An evidentiary hearing on equitable remedies, including divestiture, was held in April 2018. The parties are preparinghave prepared post-hearing briefs on the matter.matter, and the U.S. District Court heard oral arguments on August 2, 2018.


We intend to vigorously oppose entry of an adverse judgment, and to appeal any adverse judgment that may be entered. We continue to believe that Steves’ claims lack merit, Steves’ damages calculations are speculative and excessive, and Steves is not entitled in any event to the extraordinary remedy of divestiture. We believe that multiple pretrial and trial rulings were erroneous and improperly limited the Company’s defenses, and that judgment in accordance with the verdict would be improper for several reasons under applicable law. Accordingly, we do not believe that a loss in this matter is probable and estimable, and, therefore, we have not accrued a reserve for this loss contingency. However, if a judgment is entered in accordance with the verdict and is ultimately upheld after exhaustion of our appellate remedies, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results, or cash flows, particularly for the reporting period in which a loss is recorded. Because the operations acquired from CMI have been fully integrated into
Back to top

the Company’s other operations, divestiture of those operations would be difficult if not impossible and, therefore, it is not possible to estimate the cost of any final divestiture order or the extent to which such an order would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows.


During the course of the proceedings in the Eastern District of Virginia, we discovered certain facts that led us to conclude that Steves, its principals and certain former employees of the Company had misappropriated Company trade secrets, violated the terms of various agreements between the Company and those parties and violated other laws. We have asserted claims against certain of those partiesOn May 11, 2018, a jury in the Eastern District of Virginia and in the District Court of Bexar County, Texas, and are pursuing those claims vigorously.

Our other claims remain pending in Bexar County, Texas, and are set for trial in October 2018.Texas.
Self-Insured Risk – We self-insure substantially all of our domestic business liability risks including general liability, product liability, warranty, personal injury, auto liability, workers’ compensation and employee medical benefits. Excess insurance policies from independent insurance companies generally cover exposures between $3.0 million and $250.0 million for domestic product liability risk and exposures between $0.5 million and $250.0 million for auto, general liability, personal injury and workers’ compensation. We have no stop gapstop-gap coverage on claims covered by our self-insured domestic employee medical plan and are responsible for all claims thereunder. We estimate our provision for self-insured losses based upon an evaluation of current claim exposure and historical loss experience. Actual self-insurance losses may vary significantly from these estimates. At March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, our accrued liability for self-insured risks was $73.3 million.
Indemnifications– At March 31,June 30, 2018, we had commitments related to certain representations made onin contracts for the purchase or sale of businesses or property. These representations primarily relate to past actions such as responsibility for transfer taxes if they should be claimed, and the adequacy of recorded liabilities, warranty matters, employment benefit plans, income tax matters or environmental exposures. These guarantees or indemnification responsibilities typically expire within one to three years. We are not aware of any material amounts claimed or expected to be claimed under these indemnities. From time to time and in limited geographic areas, we have entered into agreements for the sale of our products to certain customers that provide additional indemnifications for liabilities arising from construction or product defects. We cannot estimate the potential magnitude of such exposures, but to the extent specific liabilities have been identified related to product sales, liabilities have been provided in the warranty accrual in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

Performance Bonds and Letters of Credit – At times, we are required to provide letters of credit, surety bonds or guarantees to customers, vendors and others. Stand-by letters of credit are provided to certain customers and counterparties in the ordinary course of business as credit support for contractual performance guarantees, advanced payments received from customers and future funding commitments. The outstanding performance bonds and stand-by letters of credit were as follows:

Environmental Contingencies – We periodically incur environmental liabilities associated with remediating our current and former manufacturing sites as well as penalties for not complying with environmental rules and regulations. We record a liability for remediation costs when it is probable that we will be responsible for such costs and the costs can be reasonably estimated. These environmental liabilities are estimated based on current available facts and presentcurrent laws and regulations. Accordingly, it is likely that adjustments to the estimated liabilities will be necessary as additional information becomes available. Short-term environmental liabilities and settlements are recorded in accrued expenses in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets and totaled $0.5 million at both March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Long-term environmental liabilities are recorded in deferred credits and other liabilities in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets and totaled $0.0 millionsheets. No long-term environmental liabilities were recorded at June 30, 2018 and $0.1 million were recorded at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.2017.



Everett, Washington WADOE Action - In 2008, we entered into an Agreed Order with the WADOE to assess historic environmental contamination at our former manufacturing site in Everett, Washington. As part of this order, we also agreed to develop a CAP identifying remediation options and the feasibility thereof. We are currently working with WADOE to finalize our assessment and draft CAP. We estimate the remaining cost to complete our assessment and develop the CAP at $0.5 million, which we have fully accrued. We are working with insurance carriers who provided coverage to a previous owner and operator of the site, and at this time we cannot reasonably estimate the cost associated with any remedial action we would be required to undertake and have not provided for any remedial action in our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. Should extensive remedial action ultimately be required, and if those costs are not found to be covered by insurance, the cost of remediation could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows.


Everett, Washington NRD Action - In November 2014, we received a letter from the NRD, a federal agency, regarding a potential multi-party settlement of an impending damage claim related to historic environmental contamination on a site we sold in December 2013. In April 2018, the court approved a settlement agreement under which we paid $1.3 million to settle the claim. Of the $1.3 million, the prior insurance carrier for the site has agreed to fund $1.1 million of the settlement. Amounts related to the settlement are accrued,fully paid, and we do not expect to incur any further significant loss related to the settlement of this matter.


Towanda, Pennsylvania Consent Order - In 2015, we entered into a COA with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to remove a pile of wood fiber waste from our site in Towanda, Pennsylvania, which we acquired in connection with our acquisition of CMI in 2013, by using it as fuel for a boiler at that site. The COA replaced a 1995 Consent Decree between CMI’s predecessor Masonite, Inc. and PaDEP. Under the COA, we are required to achieve certain periodic removal objectives and ultimately remove the entire pile by August 31, 2022. There are currently $11.0 million in bonds posted in connection with these obligations. If we are unable to remove this pile by August 31, 2022, then the bonds will be forfeited and we may be subject to penalties by PaDEP. We currently anticipate meeting all applicable removal deadlines; however, if our operations at this site decrease and we burn less fuel than currently anticipated, we may not be able to meet such deadlines.
Service Agreements– In February 2015, we entered into a strategic servicing agreement with a third partythird-party vendor to
identify and execute cost reduction opportunities. The agreement provided for a tiered fee structure directly tied to cost
savings realized. This contract terminated pursuant to its own terms on December 31, 2015, and we made a final payment of $6.3 million on January 2, 2018. We expect no further costs related to this issue.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan – We have historically provided cash to our U.S. ESOP plan in order to fund required distributions to participants through the repurchase of shares of our common stock. Following our February 2017 IPO, the value of a share of common stock held through the ESOP is now based on JELD-WEN’s public share price. We do not anticipate that JWH will fund future distributions.


Note 24. Employee Retirement and Pension Benefits


U.S. Defined Benefit Pension Plan – Certain U.S. hourly employees participate in our defined benefit pension plan. The plan is not open to new employees.

Overview and Background


We are one of the world’s largest door and window manufacturers, and we hold a leading position by net revenues in the majority of the countries and markets we serve. We design, produce and distribute an extensive range of interior and exterior doors, wood, vinyl, and aluminum windows, and related products for use in the new construction, R&R of residential homes and, to a lesser extent, non-residential buildings.


We operate 138 manufacturing facilities in 20 countries, located primarily in North America, Europe and Australia. For many product lines, our manufacturing processes are vertically integrated, enhancing our range of capabilities, our ability to innovate, and our quality control as well as providing supply chain, transportation, and working capital savings.


In October 2011, Onex acquired a majority of the combined voting power in the Company through the acquisition of convertible debt and convertible preferred equity.


In February 2017, we closed on the offeringIPO of 28.75 million shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $23.00, resulting in net proceeds of $472.4 million after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. We used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to repay $375.0 million of indebtedness outstanding under our Term Loan Facility, and used the remaining net proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including sales and marketing activities, general and administrative matters, capital expenditures, and to invest in or acquire complementary businesses, products, services, technologies, or other assets.


In May 2017, we completed a secondary public offering of 16.1 million shares of our common stock, substantially all of which were owned by Onex, including the exercise of the over-allotment option. Following the completion of the secondary offering, Onex owned approximately 45% of our common stock.

Onex. In November 2017, we completed a secondary public offering of 14.4 million shares of our common stock, substantially all of which were owned by Onex, including the exercise of the over-allotment option. Following the completion of the secondary offering, Onex owned approximately 31.2% of our common stock.Onex.
As of March 31,June 30, 2018, Onex owned approximately 30.9%31.3% of our outstanding shares.shares of common stock.
Business Segments


Our business is organized in geographic regions to ensure integration across operations serving common end markets and customers. We have three reportable segments: North America (which includes limited activity in Chile and Peru), Europe, and Australasia.

In February 2018, we acquired A&L, a leading Australian manufacturer of residential aluminum windows and patio doors. A&L has a network of manufacturing facilities across the eastern seaboard of Australia, which we expect will deliver synergies through operational savings from the implementation of JEM and by leveraging the benefits of our combined supply chain. A&L is now part of our Australasia segment.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 includes the impact of the new tax on Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”).GILTI. We continue evaluating the accounting policy election for GILTI of either (1) treating taxes due for GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred or (2) factoring such amounts into our measurement of deferred taxes. The selection of an accounting policy will depend upon a detailed analysis of the additional guidance on the operation of the GILTI provisions provided by the U.S. Treasury and our global income and other tax attributes to determine the potential impact, if any, of these provisions. Any subsequent adjustments to this provisional estimate will be reflected on a current basis when determined.

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. For a discussion of our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, see Note 13 - Segment Information.

North America
Net revenues in North America increased $135.3 million, or 13.1%, to $1,171.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $1,035.9 million in the six months ended July 1, 2017. The increase was primarily due to a 12% increase from the acquisitions of MMI Door and ABS, core revenue growth of 1% comprised of favorable pricing of 1%,2% offset by a decrease in volume/mix of 3%1%. The decrease in volume/mix was primarily driven by activity in our retail channel, including the impact of the previously announced business line rationalization in Florida and reduced volume in our windows business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview

We have historically funded our operations through a combination of cash from operations, draws on our revolving credit facilities, and the issuance of non-revolving debt such as our Term Loan Facility and Senior Notes. Working capital, which we define as accounts receivable plus inventory less accounts payable, fluctuates throughout the year and is affected by the seasonality of sales of our products, customer payment patterns, and the translation of the balance sheets of our foreign operations into our reporting currency. Typically, working capital increases at the end of the first quarter and beginning of the second quarter in conjunction with, and in preparation for, the peak season for home construction and remodeling in our North America and Europe segments, which represent the substantial majority of our revenues, and working capital decreases starting in the fourth quarter as inventory levels and accounts receivable decline. Inventories fluctuate for some raw materials with long delivery lead times, such as steel, as we work through prior shipments and take delivery of new orders.

As of March 31,June 30, 2018, we had total liquidity (a non-GAAP measure) of $334.0$330.4 million, which included $103.0$137.6 million in cash, $157.2$124.3 million available for borrowing under the ABL Facility, AUD $15.0 million ($11.511.1 million) available for borrowing under the Australia Senior Secured Credit Facility, €38.6€38.7 million ($47.645.0 million) available for borrowing under the Euro Revolving Facility, $12.8$11.2 million available for borrowing under the recently acquired revolving credit facility and €1.6€1.0 million ($1.91.2 million) under various other various overdraft facilities acquired. This compares to total liquidity of $512.2 million as of December 31, 2017 and total liquidity of $527.9 million as of July 1, 2017. The decrease in total liquidity at March 31,June 30, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017 was primarily due to cash paid for acquisitions, lower availability undercash used to repurchase our ABL Facility,shares, and cash used by operations.


As of March 31,June 30, 2018, our cash balances, including $0.3$0.4 million of restricted cash, consisted of $12.7$11.3 million in the U.S. and $90.6$126.8 million in non-U.S. subsidiaries. Based on our current level of operations, the seasonality of our business and anticipated growth, we believe that cash provided by operations and other sources of liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents and borrowings under our revolving credit facilities, will provide adequate liquidity for ongoing operations, planned capital expenditures and other investments, and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months.


We may, from time to time, refinance, reprice, extend, retire or otherwise modify our outstanding debt to lower our interest payments, reduce our debt or otherwise improve our financial position. These actions may include repricing amendments, extensions, and/or opportunistic refinancing of debt. The amount of debt that may be refinanced, re-priced, extended, retired or otherwise modified, if any, will depend on market conditions, trading levels of our debt, our cash position, compliance with debt covenants and other considerations. Our affiliates may also purchase our debt from time to time, through open market purchases or other transactions. In such cases, our debt may not be retired, in which case we would continue to pay interest in accordance with the terms of the debt, and we would continue to reflect the debt as outstanding in our consolidated balance sheets.


A hypothetical increase or decrease in interest rates of 1.0% (based on variable rate debt if our revolving credit facilities were fully drawn) would have increased or decreased our interest expense by $2.3$4.6 million for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2018.

Borrowings and Refinancings
In July 2015 and November 2016, we borrowed an additional $480 million and $375 million, respectively, under the Corporate Credit Facilities primarily to fund distributions to our shareholders. On February 6, 2017, we repaid $375 million under our Corporate Credit Facilities. On March 7, 2017, we amended the Term Loan Facility to reduce the interest rate applicable to all outstanding terms loans. In December 2017, we issued $800.0 million of unsecured Senior Notes, re-priced and amended the Term Loan Facility, and repaid $787.4 million of outstanding term loan borrowings with the net proceeds from the Senior Notes. The December 2017 refinancing transactions reduced our overall interest rates and modified other terms and provisions, including providing for additional covenant flexibility and additional capacity under the Term Loan Facility. Accordingly, ourOur results have been and will be impacted by substantial changes in our net interest expense throughout the periods presented and in the future. See Note 11 - Long-Term Debt for further details.

Cash Flow from Operations


Net cash used in operating activities increased $56.1$74.7 million to $65.3$8.3 million in the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 from $9.2$66.4 million in net cash provided by operating activities in the threesix months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017. ThisThe increase wasin cash used in operating activities resulted primarily from increased accounts receivable due to seasonality in working capital usage and plannedincreased sales volume, seasonal increases in seasonal inventory, in certain product lines.and the impact of our recent acquisitions.


Cash Flow from Investing Activities


Net cash used in investing activities increased $184.1$184.7 million to $191.8$223.5 million in the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 from $7.7$38.8 million in the threesix months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017. The increase was primarily due to cash used for acquisitions during the year, as well as an increase in capital expenditures compared to the prior period.


Cash Flow from Financing Activities


Net cash provided by financing activities was $107.4$116.2 million in the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 and was comprised primarily of increased borrowings of $111.7$169.8 million, offset by repurchases of our common stock of $47.0 million and payments to tax authorities for employee share-based compensation of $6.8 million.


Net cash provided by financing activities in the threesix months ended AprilJuly 1, 2017 was $98.3$90.6 million and comprised primarily of proceeds from the IPO of $480.3 million of which $375.0 million of proceeds were used to partially repay outstanding debt.
Holding Company Status


We are a holding company that conducts all of our operations through subsidiaries. The majority of our operating income is derived from JWI, our main operating subsidiary. Consequently, we rely on dividends or advances from our subsidiaries. The ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us is subject to applicable local law and may be limited due to the terms of other contractual arrangements, including our Credit Facilities and the Senior Notes.


The Euro Revolving Facility and Australia Senior Secured Credit Facility also contain restrictions on dividends that limit the amount of cash that the obligors under these facilities can distribute to JWI. Obligors under the Euro Revolving Facility may pay dividends only out of available cash flow and only while no default is continuing under such agreement. Obligors under the

Australia Senior Secured Credit Facility may pay dividends only to the extent they do not exceed 80% of after tax net profits (with a one-year carryforward of unused amounts) and only while no default is continuing under such agreement. For further information regarding the Euro Revolving Facility and the Australia Senior Secured Credit Facility, see Note 11 - Long-Term Debt.


The amount of our consolidated net assets that were available to be distributed under our credit facilities as of March 31,June 30, 2018 was $386.0$372.6 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 - Description of Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the consolidated financial statements presented in our Form 10-K. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Formthe 10-K. Our significant and critical accounting policies have not changed significantly since the filing of our Form 10-K.10-K was filed.


Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk


We are exposed to various types of market risks, including the effects of adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, adverse changes in interest rates, and adverse movements in commodity prices for products we use in our manufacturing. To reduce our exposure to these risks, we maintain risk management controls and policies to monitor these risks and take appropriate actions to attempt to mitigate such forms of market risk. Our market risks have not changed significantly from those disclosed in the Form 10-K, as updated and supplemented by the risk factors disclosed herein.10-K.
Item 4 - Controls and Procedures


Disclosure Controls and Procedures


The Company maintains a system of 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”)), which is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, including this Report, isare recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. These disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management on a timely basis to allow decisions regarding required disclosuredisclosures to be made.


The Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report and, based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of March 31,June 30, 2018.


Remediation Plan for Material Weaknesses


The Company addressed the material weaknesses related to income taxes described in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K. As noted therein, the Company’s management implemented a remediation plan to address the control deficiencies that led to the material weaknesses.


While management believes that it now has the requisite personnel to operate the controls in the tax function as designed and maintain internal control over financial reporting related to accounting for income taxes, management has determined that a sustained period of operating effectiveness is required to conclude that the controls are operating effectively. Based on its evaluation, the controls described above have not had sufficient time for management to conclude that they are operating effectively. Therefore, the material weaknesses described above will continue to exist until the controls described above have had sufficient time for management to conclude that they are operating effectively.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Company’s most recently completed quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1 - Legal Proceedings


We are involved in various legal proceedings, claims, and government audits arising in the ordinary course of business. We record our best estimate of a loss, including estimated defense costs, when the loss is considered probable and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. When a loss is probable and there is a range of estimated loss with no best estimate within the range, we record the minimum estimated liability related to the lawsuit or claim. As additional information becomes available, we assess the potential liability related to pending litigation and claims and revise our accruals if necessary. Because of uncertainties related to the resolution of lawsuits and claims, the ultimate outcome may differ materially from our estimates. In the opinion of management and based on the liability accruals provided, our ultimate exposure with respect to these lawsuits and claims is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our unaudited consolidated financial position or cash flows, although they could have a material adverse effect on our operating results for a particular reporting period.
Steves & Sons Litigation


We sell molded door skins to certain customers pursuant to long-term contracts, and these customers in turn use the molded door skins to manufacture interior doors and compete directly against us in the marketplace. We have given notice of termination of one of these contracts and, on June 29, 2016, the counterparty to the agreement, Steves and Sons, Inc. (“Steves”) filed a claim against JWI in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Richmond Division (“Eastern District of Virginia”). The complaint alleges that our acquisition of CMI, together with subsequent price increases and other alleged acts and omissions, violated antitrust laws and constituted a breach of contract, and breach of warranty. The complaint seeks declaratory relief, ordinary and treble damages, and injunctive relief, including divestiture of certain assets acquired in the CMI acquisition.


On February 15, 2018, a jury in the Eastern District of Virginia returned a verdict that was unfavorable to JWI with respect to Steves’ claims that our acquisition of CMI violated Section 7 of the Clayton Act and that JWI breached the supply agreement between the parties. The verdict awards Steves $12,151,873$12.2 million for past damages under both the Clayton Act and breach of contract claims and $46,480,581$46.5 million in future lost profits under the Clayton Act claim. We expect that Steves will be required to elect to recover its past damages either under the Clayton Act claims or the contract claims, but not both. If a judgment is entered under the Clayton Act, any damages awarded will be trebled. In addition, if a judgment is entered under either theory in accordance with the verdict, Steves will be entitled to an award of attorney’s fees, which amounts have not yet been quantified. We have asserted a position that, because future lost profits were awarded, Steves is not permitted to pursue its claim for divestiture of certain assets acquired in the CMI acquisition. The court has not yet ruled on this issue. An evidentiary hearing on equitable remedies, including divestiture, was held in April 2018. The parties are preparinghave prepared post-hearing briefs.briefs on the matter, and the U.S. District Court heard oral arguments on August 2, 2018.


We intend to vigorously oppose entry of an adverse judgment, and to appeal any adverse judgment that may be entered. We continue to believe that Steves’ claims lack merit, Steves’ damages calculations are speculative and excessive, and Steves is not entitled in any event to the extraordinary remedy of divestiture. We believe that multiple pretrial and trial rulings were erroneous and improperly limited the Company’s defenses, and that judgment in accordance with the verdict would be improper for several reasons under applicable law. Accordingly, we do not believe that a loss in this matter is probable and estimable, and therefore, we have not accrued a reserve for this loss contingency. However, if a judgment is entered in accordance with the verdict and is ultimately upheld after exhaustion of our appellate remedies, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results, or cash flows, particularly for the reporting period in which a loss is recorded. Because the operations acquired from CMI have been fully integrated into the Company’s other operations, divestiture of those operations would be difficult if not impossible and therefore it is not possible to estimate the cost of any final divestiture order or the extent to which such an order would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows.


During the course of the proceedings in the Eastern District of Virginia, we discovered certain facts that led us to conclude that Steves, its principals, and certain former employees of the Company had misappropriated Company trade secrets, violated the terms of various agreements between the Company and those parties, and violated other laws. We have asserted claims against certain of those partiesOn May 11, 2018, a jury in the Eastern District of Virginia and in the District Court of Bexar County, Texas, and are pursuing those claims vigorously. Trial ofissued a verdict on our trade secrets claims against Steves and othersawarded damages in the Eastern Districtamount of Virginia related to misappropriation of trade secrets began April 30, 2018.$1.2 million. Our other claims remain pending in Bexar County, Texas, and are set for trial in October 2018.Texas.
