NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 29, 2025
(Unaudited)
1.
Basis of Presentation
BlueLinx Holdings Inc., including consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a leading wholesale distributor of residential and commercial building products in the United States. The Company is a two-step distributor and purchases products from manufacturers and distributes those products to dealers and other suppliers in local markets, who then sell those products to end users. The Company carries a broad portfolio of both branded and private-label stock keeping units (“SKUs”) across two principal product categories: specialty products and structural products. Specialty products include items such as engineered wood, siding, moulding and millwork, outdoor living, specialty lumber and panels, and industrial products. Structural products include items such as lumber, plywood, oriented strand board, rebar, and remesh. The Company also provides a wide range of value-added services and solutions aimed at relieving distribution and logistics challenges for its customers and suppliers, while enhancing their marketing and inventory management capabilities.
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the interim reporting guidance of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company is composed of a single reportable segment for financial reporting purposes. The Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 28, 2024 contained herein was derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 18, 2025. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows for the reporting periods presented.
The Company has condensed or omitted certain notes and other information from the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this report. Therefore, these condensed financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K. The results for the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending January 3, 2026, or any other interim period. For the fiscal reporting periods included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company did not have any items of other comprehensive income (loss), nor did the Company have any accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
The Company operates on a 5-4-4 fiscal calendar and its fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31st of each year and may comprise 53 weeks in certain years. Fiscal 2025 contains 53 weeks and will end on January 3, 2026. Fiscal 2024 contained 52 weeks and ended on December 28, 2024.
During first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company settled certain of the initial insurance claims related to property damaged or destroyed at its Erwin, Tennessee owned facility in late third quarter 2024 due to Hurricane Helene. The Company received insurance proceeds that exceeded the carrying values of the damaged or destroyed assets by $
2.4
million, and this amount is included in Other, net on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates based on assumptions about current and, for some estimates, future economic and market conditions, which affect reported amounts and related disclosures in the Company’s financial statements. Although current estimates contemplate current and expected future conditions, as applicable, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from management’s expectations, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

Significant Accounting Policies
The Company has made no material changes to its significant accounting policies described in the notes to its consolidated financial statement included in its 2024 Form 10-K. The Company did not adopt any new accounting standards during the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted
Income Tax Disclosure Improvement
. On December 14, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09,
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
(“ASU 2023-09”), which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements in addition to modifying and eliminating certain existing requirements. Under the new guidance, entities must consistently categorize and provide greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation. They must also further disaggregate income taxes paid. The ASU’s disclosure requirements apply to all entities subject to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740,
Income Taxes
(“ASC 740”). The overall objective of these disclosure requirements is for an entity, particularly an entity operating in multiple jurisdictions, to disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature and magnitude of factors contributing to the difference between the effective income tax rate and the statutory income tax rate. ASU 2023-09 will be effective for the Company for the fiscal 2025 annual reporting period. Since this new ASU addresses only disclosures, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have any material effects on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating any new disclosures that may be required upon adoption of ASU 2023-09.
Costs and Expenses Disclosures.
On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which establishes new disaggregation disclosure requirements for certain costs and expenses in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Under the new guidance, an entity must provide details of the components of its expense captions from continuing operations presented on the face of the statement of operations as well as a qualitative description of the amounts remaining that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. Relevant disclosure categories include purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. An entity must also disclose the total amount of selling expenses, and in annual reports, its definition thereof. The disclosure of these costs and expenses will be required in addition to and irrespective of their inclusion in other disclosures. An entity is not precluded from providing additional voluntary disclosures that may provide investors with additional decision-useful information. ASU 2024-03 will be effective for the Company for the fiscal 2027 annual reporting period and for interim periods beginning in fiscal 2028. Since this new ASU addresses only disclosures, the Company does not expect its adoption to have any material effects on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating the new disclosures that will be required upon adoption of ASU 2024-03.
2.
Inventory
The Company’s inventories consist almost entirely of finished goods inventory, with a very limited amount of work-in-process inventory. The cost of all inventories is determined by the moving average cost method. The Company includes all material charges directly incurred in bringing inventory to its existing condition and location, including the cost of inbound freight, volume incentives, inventory adjustments, tariffs, duties and other import fees. The Company evaluates its inventory value at the end of each quarter to ensure that inventory, when viewed by category, is carried at the lower-of-cost-or-net-realizable-value (“LCNRV”), which also considers items that may be considered damaged, excess, and obsolete inventory. As of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the carrying values of the Company’s inventory reported on its consolidated balance sheets did not reflect any adjustments for LCNRV matters.
Substantially all of the amount reported in Cost of products sold on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations is composed of costs incurred to purchase inventory that is subsequently resold to customers, including costs related to import duties and tariffs. Import duties and tariffs are not typically passed through to customers as separately billed charges. Certain import duties are classified by the U.S. Department of Commerce (the “Commerce Department”) as “antidumping or countervailing duties,” and these duties may be subject to periodic review and adjustments by the Commerce Department through a process known as a trade remedy administrative review, which can result in both retroactive and prospective adjustments to duty rates. At the time of importation, the Company tenders antidumping duty and countervailing duty cash deposits (as use of that term has been defined by the Commerce Department) to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“U.S. Customs”) and accounts for duties and tariffs based on the then-current rates in effect, and records any retroactive adjustments in the period in which U.S. Customs determines final duty rates at the time entries subject to antidumping and countervailing duties liquidate (as use of that term has been defined by the Commerce Department), typically through the resolution of a trade remedy administrative review proceeding.

Table
of Contents
During the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, the Company recognized refunds of $
2.4
million and $
16.9
million, respectively, plus interest of $
0.5
million and $
2.0
million, respectively, related to retroactive adjustments associated with certain antidumping duties for imported wood moulding and millwork products. The antidumping duty cash deposits were originally paid and accounted for by the Company in prior reporting periods at the then-current rates. Impacted inventories have since been sold. These adjustment amounts are reflected in Cost of products sold and Interest expense, net, respectively, on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024. See Note 8,
Commitments and Contingencies
, for disclosure concerning another matter related to import duties.
3.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, net
During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, the only change to the carrying values of the Company’s Goodwill and Intangible assets, net, was the scheduled amortization of intangible assets, all of which have definite lives. Amortization expense for intangible assets was $
1.0
million
and
$
1.0
million
for the three -month fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, respectively.
Goodwill is not subject to amortization but must be tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate an impairment may have occurred. The Company consists of
one
reporting unit, and any impairment assessment requires the Company to determine if the fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is less than its carrying amount. The Company tests goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. In addition, the Company will
evaluate the carrying value for impairment between annual impairment tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired.
There were no goodwill impairment charges recorded in the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025 or March 30, 2024, and there were no accumulated goodwill impairment amounts as of March 29, 2025 or December 28, 2024. Non-cash provisions for the impairment of goodwill and/or other intangible assets could arise in future reporting periods due to sustained and significant changes in circumstances, such as declines in profitability and cash flow due to long-term deterioration in macroeconomic and industry conditions, the loss of key customers, a sustained decrease in the Company’s share price, or other unanticipated events.

The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by sales channel. Warehouse sales are delivered from the Company’s warehouses. Reload sales are similar to warehouse sales but are shipped from non-warehouse locations, most of which are operated by third parties, where the Company stores owned products to enhance operating efficiencies. The reload channel is employed primarily to service strategic customers that are less economical to service from Company warehouses, and to distribute large volumes of imported products from port facilities. Direct sales are shipped from the manufacturer to the customer and therefore the Company does not take physical possession of the inventory and, as a result, typically generate lower margins than the warehouse and reload distribution channels. The direct distribution channel requires the lowest amount of committed capital and fixed costs.

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would typically be one year or less. These costs are recorded within SG&A expense.
The Company has made an accounting policy election to treat outbound shipping and handling activities as an SG&A expense. Shipping and handling costs include amounts related to the administration of the Company’s logistical infrastructure, handling of material in its warehouses, and amounts pertaining to the delivery of products to customers, such as fuel and maintenance costs for mobile fleet, wages for drivers, and third-party freight charges. These expenses were $
39.4
million and $
38.2
million, respectively, for the fiscal quarters ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024.
Performance obligations in contracts with customers generally consist solely of delivery of goods.

million as of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024. Excess availability, which includes availability under the Revolving Credit Facility plus cash and cash equivalents in qualified deposit accounts, was $
795.2
million and $
851.8
million as of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively.
Debt Covenants
The Revolving Credit Facility and the 2029 Notes contain various covenants and restrictions, including customary financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants as of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024. The Company’s right to make draws on the Revolving Credit Facility may be conditioned upon, among other things, compliance with these covenants. These covenants also limit the Company’s ability to, among other things: incur additional debt; grant liens on assets; make investments; repurchase stock; pay dividends and make distributions; sell or acquire assets, including certain real estate assets, outside the ordinary course of business; engage in transactions with affiliates; and make fundamental business changes.
Finance Lease Obligations
The Company’s finance lease liabilities consist of leases related to equipment, vehicles, and real estate, with the majority of those finance leases related to real estate. For more information on the Company’s finance lease obligations, refer to Note 7,
Leases
.
6.
Share-Based Compensation
During the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, the Company incurred stock compensation expense of $
2.5

Table
of Contents
During the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025, the Company issued new grants of
46,662
restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with a total grant-date fair value of $
4.3
million. These new RSU grants are scheduled to vest in either
one year
or
three years
, depending on the terms of each grant. Each RSU grant will potentially result in the future issuance of one share of the Company’s common stock if the vesting conditions are satisfied.
Under the 2021 BlueLinx Holdings, Inc. 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan as of March 29, 2025, a net of
496,567
shares of the Company’s common stock remain available for future issuances of equity-based compensation awards.
7.
Leases
The Company has operating and finance leases for certain of its distribution facilities, office space, land, mobile fleet, and equipment. Many of these leases are non-cancelable and typically have a defined initial lease term, and some provide options to renew at the Company’s election for specified periods of time. The majority of these leases have remaining lease terms of
one
to
15
years, some of which include
one
or more options to extend the leases for typically
five years
. The Company’s leases generally provide for fixed annual rentals. Certain leases include provisions for escalating rent based on, among other things, contractually defined increases and/or changes in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). The known changes to lease payments are included in the lease liability at lease commencement. Unknown changes related to CPI are treated as variable lease payments and recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments was incurred. In addition, a subset of vehicle lease cost is considered variable. Some leases require the Company to pay taxes, insurance, and maintenance expenses associated with the leased assets. The lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and assesses lease classification as either operating or finance at lease inception or modification. Operating lease right-of use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are presented separately on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease ROU assets are included in property and equipment and the finance lease obligations are presented separately in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. When a lease does not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of future payments. The Company has also made the accounting policy election to not separate lease components from non-lease components related to the mobile fleet asset class.
The Company’s finance lease liabilities consist of leases related to equipment and vehicles, and real estate. A majority of the Company’s finance leases relate to real estate. During fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2018, the Company entered into real estate financing transactions on certain of its warehouse facilities. These transactions were completed pursuant to sale-leaseback arrangements, and upon their completion, the Company entered into long-term leases on the properties having renewal options. The Company accounted for these transactions in accordance with the ASC 840,
Leases

Commitments and Contingencies
Regulatory Matters
Government and regulatory agencies may have the ability to conduct routine audits and periodic examinations of, and administrative proceedings regarding, the Company’s business operations. As previously disclosed, U.S. Customs gathered initial information from the Company under routine audit procedures, and the information indicated that the Company potentially underpaid duties in prior periods arising from certain classification discrepancies for products imported into the United States as separately entered shipments. In working with U.S. Customs, the Company has exercised reasonable care to address this matter in an equitable and expeditious manner through the filing of a prior disclosure submission with U.S. Customs. As of March 29, 2025, the Company estimates that it will be required to pay approximately $
8.0
million, excluding any interest. This amount is reflected in Other current liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 29, 2025. On the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, expense of $
10.4
million, excluding interest, was recognized for this matter in the three fiscal months ended March 30, 2024, respectively, within Cost of products sold. See Note 2,
Inventory
, for disclosure concerning another matter related to import duties.
In addition, U.S. Customs has issued proposed notices of action to the Company, asking for confirmation that certain plywood products the Company imported into the United States originated from Vietnam and Indonesia, respectively, as opposed to China. The Company is in the process of providing responses to U.S. Customs and believes that the information it has provided, and will be providing, support the declared origins of the plywood. But, if the government disagrees and determines the plywood originated from China, the Company believes it is reasonably possible that it could be responsible for additional duties on the entries identified by U.S. Customs that could range from
zero
to $
22
million.
Environmental Matters
From time to time, the Company may be involved in proceedings involving various environmental and pollution control laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which it operates. When the Company believes it has material financial exposure to these matters, it estimates and recognizes adequate liabilities and, if applicable, also timely records any expected recoveries from insurance coverages or subrogation in accordance with GAAP. Such liabilities, when recorded, may or may not be discounted, as required or permitted by GAAP. Based on presently available information, the Company had no material obligations for environmental matters as of March 29, 2025 or December 28, 2024.
Collective Bargaining Agreements
As of March 29, 2025, approximately
19.7
% of the Company’s employees were represented by various local labor unions with terms and conditions of employment governed by collective bargaining agreements (“CBAs”).
Five
CBAs covering approximately
5.0
% of the Company’s employees are up for renewal during the remainder of fiscal 2025, of which one is currently under negotiations and the other four are expected to be renegotiated before their renewal dates.
9.
Income Taxes
Effective Income Tax Rate
13
Table
of Contents
The Company’s effective income tax rates for the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 were
32.3
% and
24.1
%, respectively.
The Company’s effective income tax rates for the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 were impacted by the permanent addback of certain nondeductible expenses, including meals and entertainment and executive compensation for the quarterly periods, as well as adjustments to deferred income tax assets related to stock-based compensation. The Company’s effective income tax rates for the three fiscal months ended March 30, 2024 was also impacted by an adjustment to deferred income tax assets related to the partial release of a state income tax valuation allowance.
For fiscal 2025, the Company currently estimates that its annual effective income tax rate will be approximately
27
%
.
For additional information about the Company’s income taxes, see Note 7,
Income Taxes
, to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2024.
10.
Earnings Per Share and Stockholders' Equity
The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. For rounding purposes when calculating earnings per share, the Company’s policy is to round down to the whole cent.
Diluted earnings per share are calculated using the treasury stock method whereby net income for the period is divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect, if any, of shares of stock associated with unvested share-based grants. However, for performance-based share-based grants, the dilutive effect is included only for grants where the performance goals have been achieved.
The reconciliations of basic net income and diluted earnings per common share for the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 are as follows:

For the fiscal quarters ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, weighted-average unvested time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) totaling
24,089
and
486
, respectively, were not included in the dilutive effect of share-based awards for the respective periods because their effects were antidilutive. The unvested time-based RSUs were antidilutive based on their remaining unearned compensation amounts and the Company’s average stock price during the respective period. Additionally, as of March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, a total of
127,174
and
113,208
, respectively, of unvested performance-based RSUs were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. The unvested performance-based RSUs were excluded because their performance metrics had not been achieved as of the end of the respective reporting period and thus they were not tested for dilution under the treasury stock method. Each RSU is composed of one unvested share of the Company’s common stock and any outstanding RSUs dilutive effect could change in future reporting periods.
Repurchases of Common Stock
On October 31, 2023, the Company’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for $
100
million. Under this share repurchase program, the Company may repurchase its common stock from time to time, without prior notice, subject to prevailing market conditions and other considerations. Repurchases may be made through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, tender offers or pursuant to a trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b5-1.

Table
of Contents
During the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025, the Company repurchased
186,048
shares of its common stock at a weighted-average average price of $
80.65
including broker commissions but excluding federal excise tax on the repurchases, for a total of $
15.0
million. These amounts are based on trade date activity, while the amounts reported on the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows for share repurchases are based on settlement date activity. As of March 29, 2025, there remained $
31.5
million repurchase capacity under the authorization approved October 31, 2023.
Between March 29, 2025 and April 25, 2025, the Company purchased an additional
142,500
shares of its common stock for $
10.3
million at a weighted-average share price of $
72.18
per share, including broker commissions but excluding federal excise tax due on the repurchases.
11.
Fair Value
As of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company had no assets or liabilities for which the carrying value is remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has not elected the fair value reporting option for any of its financial instruments.
Fair Value Disclosures
The fair value of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, to the extent the underlying liability will be settled in cash, approximates the carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
Debt
The estimated fair value of the Company’s 2029 Notes was determined based on Level 2 input using observable market prices in less active markets, as presented below:

Segment Reporting
The Company has
one
reportable segment: building products. The segment sells building products that are grouped into two primary categories: specialty products and structural products. The Company’s CODM is its chief executive officer (CEO). The Company derives substantially all of its revenues from the United States and all of the Company’s assets are located in the United States. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Company’s balance sheet as total consolidated assets. The segment’s accounting policies are the same as the accounting policies for the Company, as described in Note 1,
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,
in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We operate in a changing environment in which new risks can emerge from time to time. It is not possible for management to predict all of these risks, nor can it assess the extent to which any factor, or a combination of factors, may cause our business, strategy, or actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes and other financial information included in this Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year
2024
.
In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this Form 10-Q contain forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by this forward-looking information due to the factors discussed under Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q, under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for fiscal
2024,
and under “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” in Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.
Our Strategy
We remain committed to driving a culture of profitable growth within new and existing product lines and geographies, while positioning the Company for long-term value creation. The following initiatives represent key areas of our management team’s focus:
1.
Grow our higher-margin specialty product categories.
We continue to pursue a revenue mix weighted toward higher-margin, specialty product categories such as engineered wood, siding, millwork, outdoor living, specialty lumber and panels, and industrial products. Additionally, we are expanding our value-added service offerings designed to simplify complex customer sourcing requirements.
2.
Increase share gain in local and national markets
. We continue to pursue multi-family project growth, expand our product lines with key national accounts, expand branded product lines into new geographic markets, and launch new
17
Table
of Contents
product lines. With our expanded product categories, and our strategic vendor relationships, we seek to be an extension of our customers’ business in a scalable way.
3.
Foster a performance-driven culture committed to business excellence and profitable growth to be the provider of choice for both suppliers and customers.
We seek to improve the customer experience through enhanced tools, value-added services, and technology enablement, accelerating organic growth within specific product and solutions offerings where we are uniquely advantaged, increase our performance by leveraging our scale and national footprint together with pricing, operational and procurement capabilities, and deploy capital to drive sustained margin expansion, grow cash flow and maintain continued profitable growth.
4.
Maintain a disciplined capital structure and pursue strategic investments that increase the value of the Company.
We continue to strategically target acquisition opportunities that grow our higher-margin specialty products business, expand our geographic reach, or complement our existing capabilities. We also continue to evaluate and identify additional markets that are potential opportunities for new market development. We further seek to maintain a disciplined capital structure while at the same time investing in our business to modernize our distribution facilities, as well as our tractor and trailer fleet, and to improve operational performance. During the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2025, we engaged in the following transactions:
•
Used cash of $5.9 million and entered into $28.1 million of finance leases to enhance our facilities and fleet.
•
Returned capital of $15.0 million to our shareholders by using cash to purchase 186,048 shares of our common stock at an average price of $80.62, excluding broker commissions and excise tax.
Our culture is guided by an unwavering commitment to apply our values to every decision we make and every action we take:
•
Customer Centric -
We put our customers first, so we are customer centric in all that we do.
•
Integrity
- We act with integrity, because doing the right thing is critical to our success.
•
Respect
- We treat everyone with dignity and respect.
•
Grit
- We show grit in the face of changing landscapes.
•
Collaboration
- We collaborate with each other and our customers to build great teams and construct innovative solutions.
Factors That Affect Our Operating Results and Trends
Our results of operations and financial performance are influenced by a variety of factors, including the following: adverse housing market conditions; consolidation among competitors, suppliers, and customers; escalating changes in retaliatory trade policies of the United States and other countries; our dependence on international suppliers and manufacturers for certain products and related exposure to risks of new or increased tariffs and other risks that could affect our financial condition; pricing and product cost variability; disintermediation risk; volumes of product sold; competition; the cyclical nature of the industry in which we operate; loss of products or key suppliers and manufacturers; information technology security risks and business interruption risks; effective inventory management relative to our sales volume or the prices of the products we produce; the ability to attract, train, and retain highly qualified associates and other key personnel while controlling related labor costs; potential acquisitions and the integration and completion of such acquisitions; business disruptions; exposure to product liability and other claims and legal proceedings related to our business and the products we distribute; natural disasters, catastrophes, fire, wars or other unexpected events; the impacts of climate change; successful implementation of our strategy; wage increases or work stoppages by our union employees; costs imposed by federal, state, local, and other regulations; compliance costs associated with federal, state, and local environmental protection laws; the effects of epidemics, global pandemics or other widespread public health crises and governmental rules and regulations; fluctuations in our operating results; our level of indebtedness and our ability to incur additional debt to fund future needs; the covenants of the instruments governing our indebtedness limiting the discretion of our management in operating the business; the potential to incur more debt; the fact that we have consummated certain sale leaseback transactions with resulting long-term non-cancelable leases, many of which are or will be finance leases; the fact that we lease many of our distribution centers, and we would still be obligated under these leases even if we close a leased distribution center; inability to raise funds necessary to finance a required repurchase of our senior secured notes; a lowering or withdrawal of debt ratings; changes in our product mix; increases in fuel and other energy prices or availability of third-part freight providers; changes in insurance-related deductible/retention liabilities based on actual loss development experience; the possibility that the value of our deferred tax assets could become impaired; changes in our expected annual effective tax rate could be volatile; the costs and liabilities related to our participation in multi-employer pension plans could increase; the risk that our cash flows and capital resources may be insufficient to service our existing or future indebtedness; interest rate risk, which could cause our debt service obligations to increase; and changes

in, or interpretation of, accounting principles. These factors, and the related trends and uncertainties, have historically produced cyclicality in our results of operations, and we expect this cyclicality to continue in future periods.

First Quarter of Fiscal 2025 Compared to First Quarter of Fiscal 2024
For the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company’s consolidated net sales were $709.2 million, a decrease of $17.0 million, or 2.3%, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
•
The decrease in net sales in the current fiscal quarter was attributable to overall lower volume and pricing for specialty products, partially offset by overall higher volume and pricing for structural products.
•
In both quarterly periods, we believe that inclement weather in certain regions of the U.S. negatively impacted volumes.
•
Compared to the first quarter of 2024, average commodity prices in U.S. markets during the first quarter of 2025 for lumber were up 13% and down 13% for panels.
The Company’s gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 decreased by $16.6 million to $111.1 million from $127.7 million in the prior year quarter.
•
This decrease in gross profit in the current fiscal quarter was attributable to both specialty and structural products.
•
Gross margin percentage for the Company decreased from 17.6% to 15.7% in the current fiscal quarter, also attributable to both structural products and specialty products.
•
The Company’s gross profit and gross margin percentage in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and the first quarter of fiscal 2024 benefited from gross refunds of $2.4 million and $16.9 million (excluding interest), respectively, for changes in retroactive rates for anti-dumping duties (see Note 2,
Inventory
, to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Additionally, our gross profit in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was negatively impacted by $10.4 million (excluding interest) of expense for classification adjustments related to certain goods imported by the Company (see Note 8,
Commitments and Contingencies
, to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Excluding these items, which are reflected in Costs of products sold on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, our gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and first quarter of fiscal 2024 would have been $108.7 million and $121.2 million, respectively, and gross margin percentage would have been 15.3% and 16.7%, respectively.
Net sales of specialty products, which include products such as engineered wood, siding, millwork, outdoor living, specialty lumber and panels, and industrial products, decreased by $24.4 million, or 4.9%, to $479.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
•
This decrease in net sales for specialty products in the current fiscal quarter was due to price deflation driven by external market conditions, as well as lower volumes for most categories of specialty products.
•
Specialty products gross profit decreased by $14.3 million to $89.8 million in the current fiscal quarter due to the decrease in sales as well as margin compression.
•
Specialty products gross margin percentage decreased by 200
basis points to 18.7% compared to 20.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 due to overall decreases in volume and pricing.
•
The adjustments related to duty and import matters discussed above at the Company level are all reflected in the operating results for specialty products. First quarter fiscal 2025 results for specialty products include a net benefit of $2.4 million (excluding interest) for refunds due to changes in retroactive rates for anti-dumping duties. The first quarter of fiscal 2024 included a net benefit of $6.5 million (excluding interest), composed of a $16.9 million benefit for refunds due to changes in retroactive rates for anti-dumping duties, partially offset by expenses of $10.4 million for classification adjustments related to certain goods imported by the Company. Excluding these net benefits for both quarterly fiscal periods, specialty products gross margin percentage for first quarter of fiscal 2025 and first quarter of fiscal 2024 would have been 18.2% and 19.4%, respectively, a decrease of 120 basis points.
Net sales of structural products, which includes products such as lumber, panels (including plywood and oriented strand board), rebar, and remesh, increased by $7.4 million, or 3.3%, to $229.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
•
This increase in net sales for structural products in the current fiscal quarter was due to overall increases in lumber pricing, and increased lumber and panel volumes, partially offset by price declines in panels.
•
Structural products gross profit decreased by $2.3 million to $21.4 million from $23.6 million in the prior year fiscal quarter. Increased pricing in the current fiscal quarter, was offset by higher Costs of product sold in the current fiscal quarter.
•
Structural products gross margin percentage for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 was 9.3%
compared to 10.6% in the prior-year fiscal quarter. Costs of products sold increased more than the increase in net sales in the current fiscal quarter.

Our selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by $2.8 million, or 3.1%, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024. This overall increase was due primarily to continuing technology initiatives associated with our digital transformation and also to higher logistics costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 1.3% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024 due to a higher base of depreciable assets in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, resulting from our continued focus on strategic capital investment.
Interest expense, net, which includes gross interest expense less interest income, was $6.6 million and $4.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and first quarter of fiscal 2024, respectively, resulting in an increase in net interest expense of $2.0 million, or 42.3% in the current fiscal quarter.
•
Gross interest expense was $12.1 million and $13.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and first quarter of fiscal 2024, respectively. Gross interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 included $1.6 million of accrued interest expense related to the potential underpayment of duties arising from certain classification discrepancies for products imported into the United States as separately entered shipments (see Note 8,
Commitments and Contingencies
, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Excluding this $1.6 million of interest expense, gross interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 would have been $11.5 million compared to $12.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase in the current fiscal quarter of $0.5 million, or 4.7%, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024. This $0.5 million increase in the current fiscal quarter was due to additional net finance leases added subsequent to the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
•
Interest income was $5.5 million and $8.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and first quarter of fiscal 2024, respectively. Interest income in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and first quarter of fiscal 2024 included $0.5 million and $2.0 million, respectively, related to refunds received due to changes in retroactive rates for anti-dumping duties (see Note 2,
Inventory
, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Excluding these amounts, interest income for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and first quarter of fiscal 2024 would have been $5.0 million and $6.5 million, respectively, a decrease of $1.5 million in the current fiscal quarter. This $1.5 million decrease in the current fiscal quarter was due to lower average balances for interest-bearing deposits of cash/cash equivalents and due to lower interest rate paid on those deposits in the current fiscal quarter.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, we settled certain of the initial insurance claims related to property and equipment that was damaged or destroyed at our Erwin, Tennessee owned facility in late third quarter of fiscal 2024 due to Hurricane Helene. We received insurance proceeds that exceeded the carrying values of the damaged or destroyed assets by $2.4 million and this amount is included in Other, net on our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
Our effective income tax rates were 32.3% and 24.1% for the first quarters of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, respectively. Our effective income tax rates for the first quarters of fiscal 2025 and 2024 were impacted by the permanent addback of certain nondeductible expenses, including meals and entertainment and executive compensation for the quarterly periods, as well as adjustments to deferred income tax assets related to stock-based compensation
.
Our effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was also impacted by an adjustment to deferred income tax assets related to the partial release of a state income tax valuation allowance. For fiscal 2025, we currently estimate our annual effective income tax rate will be approximately 27%
.
Our net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 was $2.8 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, versus $17.5 million, or $2.00 per diluted share, in the prior-year fiscal quarter.
Decreases
in our net income and earnings per diluted share were due primarily to the factors discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We expect our primary sources of liquidity to be cash flows from sales and operating activities in the normal course of our operations, cash and cash equivalents on hand, and availability from our revolving credit facility, as needed. We expect that these sources will be sufficient to fund our ongoing cash requirements for at least the next 12 months and into the foreseeable future. As of March 29, 2025, we had $449 million of cash and cash equivalents plus $346.2 million of availability on our revolving credit facility.
Senior Secured Notes
In October 2021, we completed the private offering of $300 million of our 6.0% senior secured notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”). Interest is payable semi-annually. Our 2029 Notes are scheduled to mature on November 15, 2029, and no principal is due until that time as long as we remain in compliance with the related covenants. As of March 29, 2025, we were in compliance with these covenants.
Revolving Credit Facility
Our existing revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (“Agent”), and certain other financial institutions, matures on August 2, 2026, provided we remain in compliance with the related covenants. As of March 29, 2025, we were in compliance with such covenants.
Any outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (calculated as SOFR plus 0.1%) plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%, with the margin determined based upon average excess availability for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter for loans based on SOFR, or (ii) the Agent’s base rate (as that term is defined in the agreement for the Revolving Credit Facility) plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75%, with the margin based upon average excess availability for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter for loans based on the base rate. As of March 29, 2025, this variable interest rate for the Revolving Credit Facility was 5.535%.
Borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility are subject to availability under the Borrowing Base (as that term is defined in the agreement for the Revolving Credit Facility). The Company is required to repay revolving loans thereunder to the extent that such revolving loans exceed the Borrowing Base then in effect. Our Revolving Credit Facility may be prepaid in whole or in part from time to time without penalty or premium but including all breakage costs incurred by any lender thereunder.
As of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, we had zero outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and available borrowing capacity was $346.2 million, net of undrawn letters of credit. Excess availability, which includes availability under our Revolving Credit Facility plus cash and cash equivalents in qualified accounts, was $795.2 million as of March 29, 2025.
Finance Lease Obligations
Our finance lease obligations consist of leases for real estate, equipment, and vehicles totaling $316.8 million and $292.5 million as of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively. Of the $316.8 million as of March 29, 2025, $242.4 million related to real estate and $74.4 million related to equipment. Of the $292.5 million as of December 28, 2024, $242.8 million related to real estate and $49.8 million related to equipment.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the first three months of fiscal 2025 was $33.9 million compared to net cash used of $31.1 million in the first three months of fiscal 2024. The decrease in cash generated from activities during the first three months of fiscal 2025 was primarily a result of a $14.7 million decrease in net income for the current fiscal quarter, partially offset by a $14.1 million net increase in operating assets and liabilities in the current fiscal quarter.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the first three months of fiscal 2025 was $3.4 million compared to net cash used of $5.3 million in the first three months of fiscal 2024. In the current quarter, we received initial insurance proceeds of $2.4 million

related to property and equipment that was damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Helene at our Erwin, Tennessee owned facility back in late third quarter of fiscal 2024. During the first three months of fiscal 2025, we also acquired $28.1 million of property and equipment through finance leases, compared to $8.2 million for the first three months of fiscal 2024.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities totaled $19.3 million for the first three months of fiscal 2025 compared to net cash used of $4.0 million for the first three months of fiscal 2024. The change in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to the $15.0 million used to repurchase our common stock during the current fiscal quarter. We had no repurchases of our common stock during the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
Stock Repurchase Program
During the
first three months of fiscal 2025, we repurchased 186,048 shares of our common stock under our 2023 share repurchase program at an average price of $80.65, including broker commissions but excluding federal excise tax due on the repurchases, for a total of $15.0 million. As of March 29, 2025, there remained $31.5 million repurchase capacity under this authorization. Between March 29, 2025 and April 25, 2025, we purchased an additional 142,500 shares of our common stock for $10.3 million at an average price of $72.18 per share, including broker commissions but excluding federal excise tax due on the repurchases.
Under the 2023 share repurchase program, we may repurchase our common stock at any time or from time to time, without prior notice, subject to prevailing market conditions and other considerations. Our repurchases may be made through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, tender offers or pursuant to a trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b5-1.
The repurchase dollar amounts noted above are based on trade date activity, while the amounts reported on our consolidated statements of cash flows for share repurchases are based on settlement date activity.
Net Working Capital
Net working capital is an important measurement we use to determine the efficiencies of our operations and our ability to readily convert assets into cash. Net working capital is defined as the sum of accounts receivables and inventory, less accounts payable, each determined in accordance with GAAP and included in our consolidated balance sheets. This metric differs from traditional working capital in that it excludes certain current assets and current liabilities that are reported in our consolidated balance sheets. Net working capital of $462.0 million as of March 29, 2025, compared to $411.5 million as of December 28, 2024, increased on a net basis by approximately $50.5 million, as shown below:

Table
of Contents
For the first three months of fiscal 2025, we invested $6.4 million in long-lived assets primarily related to investments in our fleet and digital transformation and to a lesser extent, facility enhancements. We also added $28.1 million of property and equipment under finance leases during the first three months of fiscal 2025, primarily for new tractors and forklifts to enhance our logistics network.
For the first three months of fiscal 2024, we invested $5.4 million in long-lived assets primarily related to investments in our distribution facilities and upgrading our fleet. We also added $8.2 million in new finance leases during the 2024 fiscal quarter for new forklifts to enhance our logistics network.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make judgments and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2024.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to certain market risks as part of our on-going business operations. Our exposure includes commodity price risk and interest rate risk. There have been no material changes to our exposure to market risks from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2024.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our management performed an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q, under the supervision of our chief executive officer and interim principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and interim principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management including our chief executive officer and interim principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are, and from time to time may be, a party to routine legal proceedings incidental to the operation of our business. Except as disclosed in Note 8,
Commitments and Contingencies
, under Regulatory Matters, to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company does not expect that the outcome of any other pending or threatened proceedings, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually, or taken together, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, operating results, or cash flows, based on our current understanding of the relevant facts. Legal expenses incurred related to these contingencies are generally expensed as incurred.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors" in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024, other than as set forth below.
Escalating changes in trade policies of the United States and other countries that are beyond our control, including the imposition of new tariffs and the potential renegotiation or termination of existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements, may have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results, and financial condition.
The current domestic and international political environment, including changes to trade laws, regulations and policies with respect to tariffs, sanctions, and import/export controls, has resulted in uncertainty surrounding the future state of the domestic and global economies. The U.S. government recently implemented, or plans to implement, significant trade policy and tariff actions, including but not limited to tariffs on imported lumber and other wood-based commodities, multiple tariffs on certain imports from China, tariffs on certain imports from Canada, and baseline tariffs on most imports from most other countries. These actions have increased, or potentially will increase, the cost of certain raw materials and manufactured components and created significant uncertainty and potential risks for our business. Certain countries have announced retaliatory tariffs in response to such actions. The U.S. government may in the future propose and implement additional changes to international trade agreements, tariffs, taxes, and other government rules and regulations and, if initiated, retaliatory tariffs or other actions may be taken by certain governments. While the future financial impact of these actions and potential additional U.S. tariff actions and retaliatory actions by other countries remains unknown, the impacts could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements in any particular reporting period.
