NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)


1.			BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Patrick Industries, Inc. (“Patrick”, the “Company”, "we", "our") contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that we believe are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, its results of operations for the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020 and September 29, 2019 and its statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 27, 2020 and September 29, 2019.

Patrick’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules or regulations. For a description of significant accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements, please refer to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The December 31, 2019 condensed consolidated statement of financial position data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Operating results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2020.

The Company maintains its financial records on the basis of a fiscal year ending on December 31, with the fiscal quarters spanning approximately thirteen weeks. The first quarter ends on the Sunday closest to the end of the first thirteen-week period. The second and third quarters are thirteen weeks in duration and the fourth quarter is the remainder of the year. The third quarter of fiscal year 2020 ended on September 27, 2020 and the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 ended on September 29, 2019.

In preparation of Patrick’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020, management evaluated all subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date of issuance of the Form 10-Q that required recognition or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.


2.			RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Goodwill Impairment

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-04, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment". This ASU simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. The standard requires that the impairment loss be measured as the excess of the reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value. It eliminates the second step that requires the impairment to be measured between the implied value of a reporting unit's goodwill and its carrying value. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 on January 1, 2020 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which amends certain provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 326, “Financial Instruments-Credit Loss”. The ASU changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, held to maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, entities are required to use a

new forward-looking “expected loss” model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. Additionally, entities are required to disclose more information with respect to credit quality indicators, including information used to track credit quality by year of origination for most financing receivables. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes", a new standard to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates, and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)", a new standard providing final guidance to provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as SOFR. Entities can elect not to apply certain modification accounting requirements to contracts affected by what the guidance calls reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. An entity that makes this election would not have to remeasure the contracts at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. Entities can elect various optional expedients that would allow them to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The guidance is effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, "Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity", a new standard that simplifies certain accounting treatments for convertible debt instruments. The guidance eliminates certain requirements that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features and simplifies the settlement assessment that entities are required to perform to determine whether a contract qualifies for equity classification. In addition, the new guidance requires entities use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments in the diluted EPS calculation and include the effect of potential share settlement for instruments that may be settled in cash or shares, with certain exceptions. Furthermore, the guidance requires new disclosures about events that occur during the reporting period that cause conversion contingencies to be met and about the fair value of convertible debt at the instrument level, among other things. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

(1) Certain immaterial operations permanently ceased activities during the nine months ended September 27, 2020. As a result, we recorded a $2.0 million pre-tax impairment of customer relationships and trademarks of these operations after determining the net carrying value of the assets was no longer recoverable. The impairment was calculated using our internal projections of discounted cash flows, which rely on Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy based on the unobservable nature of the underlying data. The impairment was recorded in selling, general and administrative in our condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 27, 2020.

Valuation of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangibles

We test goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets (trademarks) for impairment on an annual basis (as of September 30, 2019 for our most recent annual tests) and, if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have been incurred, on an interim basis. Our 2019 tests indicated that there was no impairment, as fair value exceeded carrying values, and we concluded that none of our reporting units or trademarks were at risk of failing the impairment test.

Despite the excess fair value identified in our 2019 impairment tests, we assessed during the quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020 whether the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on overall macroeconomic conditions and our results of operations for the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020 indicated that at September 27, 2020 it was more likely than not that our goodwill and trademarks were impaired. We evaluated among other factors (i) the results of our 2019 impairment tests; (ii) our market capitalization at September 27, 2020 in relation to the carrying amount of shareholders’ equity at September 27, 2020 and to fair values determined during our 2019 impairment tests; (iii) the results of our operations during the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020 in relation to our projections; and (iv) our analysis of the impact on the fair values determined during our 2019 impairment tests using more recent projections and discount rates that account for various risks and uncertainties, including the duration and extent of impact to our business, related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Based on the results of our assessment, and other than immaterial impairments discussed above, we concluded that no triggering events had occurred which would indicate the fair values of our goodwill and trademarks may be less than the carrying values at September 27, 2020. However, we are unable to predict how long the COVID-19-related conditions will persist, what additional measures may be introduced by governments or private parties, or what effect any such additional measures may have on demand for our products or those of our customers in each of our end markets. As such, the outcome of our 2020 impairment tests, which we will perform in the fourth quarter of 2020, could result in an impairment of our goodwill or our trademarks.


6.			ACQUISITIONS

General

The Company completed six acquisitions in the third quarter of 2020 and completed nine acquisitions in the first nine months of 2020 (the "2020 Acquisitions"). For the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020, net sales included in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of income related to the 2020 Acquisitions were $19.6 million and $23.3 million, respectively. Operating income related to the 2020 Acquisitions for the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020 was approximately $2.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively. Acquisition-related costs incurred in the first nine months of 2020 were immaterial. The Company completed two acquisitions in the first nine months of 2019. For the third quarter and first nine months ended September 29, 2019, revenue and operating income included in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of income were immaterial. Acquisition-related costs incurred in the first nine months of 2019 were immaterial.

As of September 27, 2020, the aggregate fair value of the estimated contingent consideration payments was $8.0 million, $6.1 million of which is included in the line item "Accrued liabilities" and $1.9 million is included in “Other long-term liabilities” on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position. At December 31, 2019, the aggregate fair value of the estimated contingent consideration payments was $9.6 million, $2.0 million of which was included in the line item "Accrued liabilities" and $7.6 million was included in "Other long-term liabilities". The liabilities for contingent consideration expire at various dates through December 2023. The contingent consideration arrangements are subject to a maximum payment amount of up to $14.8 million in the aggregate. In the first nine months of 2020, the Company made cash payments of $2.0 million related to contingent consideration arrangements, recording a corresponding reduction to accrued liabilities.

2020 Acquisitions

Acquisitions completed in the first nine months of 2020 include the following previously announced acquisitions:


Company			Description
Maple City Woodworking Corporation			Manufacturer of hardwood cabinet doors and fascia for the recreational vehicle ("RV") market based in Goshen, Indiana
SEI Manufacturing, Inc.			Manufacturer of towers, T-Tops, hardtops, rails, gates and other aluminum exterior products for the marine market located in Cromwell, Indiana
Inland Plywood Company			Supplier, laminator, and wholesale distributor of treated, untreated, and laminated plywood, medium density overlay panels, and other specialty products, primarily serving the marine market as well as the RV and industrial markets headquartered in Pontiac, Michigan with an additional facility in Cocoa, Florida

Front Range Stone			Fabricator and installer of natural stone, quartz, solid surface, and laminate countertops, primarily serving big box home improvement retailers, home builders and commercial contractors in the industrial market based in Englewood, Colorado

Inclusive of four immaterial acquisitions not discussed above, total cash consideration for the 2020 Acquisitions was approximately $124 million, plus contingent consideration over a maximum of a one-year period based on future performance in connection with certain acquisitions. The preliminary purchase price allocations are subject to valuation activities being finalized, and thus all required purchase accounting adjustments are subject to change within the measurement period as the Company finalizes its estimates. Changes to preliminary purchase accounting estimates recorded in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 related to the 2020 Acquisitions were immaterial. The 2020 Acquisitions are included in the Manufacturing segment except for Synergy RV Transport, which is included in the Distribution segment.

2019 Acquisitions

The Company completed four acquisitions in 2019 (the "2019 Acquisitions"), including the previously announced acquisitions of Topline Counters, LLC ("Topline Counters"), a Sumner, Washington-based designer and manufacturer of

kitchen and bathroom countertops for residential and commercial markets, and G.G. Schmitt & Sons, Inc. ("G.G. Schmitt"), a Sarasota, Florida-based designer and manufacturer of customized hardware and structural components for the marine industry. The total cash consideration for the 2019 Acquisitions was $53.1 million, plus contingent consideration over a one-year period based on future performance in connection with the acquisition of G.G. Schmitt. Valuation activities and purchase accounting adjustments have been finalized on all 2019 Acquisitions, except for the finalization of tangible assets for Topline Counters. Changes to preliminary purchase accounting estimates recorded in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 related to the 2019 Acquisitions were immaterial. The 2019 Acquisitions are included in the Manufacturing segment.

The following table summarizes the fair values of the consideration paid, assets acquired, and the liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition for the 2020 Acquisitions and the 2019 Acquisitions:


(thousands)			2020 Acquisitions		2019 Acquisitions
Consideration
	Cash, net of cash acquired		$	124,013	$	53,307
	Contingent consideration(1)		1,813		1,160
		Total consideration	125,826		54,467

Assets Acquired
	Trade receivables		$	9,785	$	9,692
	Inventories		16,073		5,803
	Prepaid expenses & other		502		20
	Property, plant & equipment		15,633		6,567
	Operating lease right-of-use assets		6,222		5,653
	Identifiable intangible assets		49,445		23,715
Liabilities Assumed
	Accounts payable & accrued liabilities		(6,264)		(6,514)
	Operating lease obligations		(6,222)		(5,653)
	Deferred tax liabilities, net		(3,415)		(1,922)
		Total fair value of net assets acquired	81,759		37,361
		Goodwill(2)	44,067		17,106
			$	125,826	$	54,467

(1) These amounts reflect the preliminary estimated liability pertaining to the fair value of contingent consideration based on future performance relating to certain acquisitions.

(2) Goodwill is tax-deductible for the 2020 Acquisitions, except Front Range Stone (approximately $14.1 million), and for the 2019 Acquisitions, except GG Schmitt (approximately $5.4 million). For acquisitions, the excess of purchase price consideration over the fair value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill, which generally represents the combined value of the Company's existing purchasing, manufacturing, sales, industry relationships, and systems resources with the organizational talent and expertise of the acquired companies' respective management teams to maximize efficiencies, revenue impact, market share growth, and net income.

We estimate the value of acquired property, plant, and equipment using a combination of the income, cost, and market approaches, such as estimates of future income growth, capitalization rates, discount rates, and capital expenditure needs of the acquired businesses.

The following table presents our estimates of identifiable intangibles for the 2020 Acquisitions and the 2019 Acquisitions:


		(thousands)
	Estimated Useful Life (in years)	2020 Acquisitions		2019 Acquisitions
Customer relationships	10	$	37,723	$	18,112
Non-compete agreements	5	492		150
Trademarks	Indefinite	11,230		5,453
		$	49,445	$	23,715

We estimate the value of customer relationships using the multi-period excess earnings method, which is a variation on the income approach, calculating the present value of incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to the asset. Non-compete agreements are valued using a discounted cash flow approach, which is a variation of an income approach, with and without the individual counterparties to the non-compete agreements. Trademarks are valued using the relief-from-royalty method, which applies an estimated royalty rate to forecasted future cash flows, discounted to present value.

Pro Forma Information

The following pro forma information for the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020 and September 29, 2019 assumes the 2020 Acquisitions and the 2019 Acquisitions occurred as of the beginning of the year immediately preceding each such acquisition.

7.			STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company recorded expense of $4.9 million and $11.2 million for the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020, respectively, for its stock-based compensation plans in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Stock-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 27, 2020 includes a reduction of expense due to certain forfeitures and adjustments in the amount of $2.3 million. For the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2019, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $3.8 million and $12.0 million, respectively.

The Board approved various stock-based grants under the Company’s 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan in the first nine months of 2020 totaling 275,740 shares in the aggregate at an average fair value of $53.78 per share at grant date for a total fair value at grant date of $14.8 million. In addition, in the second quarter of 2020, the Board approved stock option grants representing 465,000 shares in the aggregate at an exercise price of $41.33 per share. The total cost to be expensed over the three-year vesting period will be $6.6 million, or $14.25 per share, with an underlying volatility of 42% under the Black Scholes option pricing model.

As of September 27, 2020, there was approximately $25.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based compensation arrangements granted under incentive plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 17.4 months.

Diluted net income per common share	$	1.62	$	0.92	$	2.57	$	2.99

An immaterial amount of securities was not included in the computation of diluted income per share as they are considered anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method.


9.			DEBT

A summary of total debt outstanding at September 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is as follows:


(thousands)	September 27, 2020		December 31, 2019
Long-term debt:

Less: senior notes deferred financing costs, net	(5,227)		(5,844)
Less: current maturities of long-term debt	(5,000)		(5,000)
Total long-term debt, less current maturities, net	$	673,852	$	670,354

There were no material changes to any of our debt arrangements during the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020.

Interest rates for borrowings under the revolver and term loan are the prime rate or LIBOR plus a margin. At September 27, 2020, all of the Company's borrowings under the revolver and term loan were under the LIBOR-based option. The interest rate for incremental borrowings at September 27, 2020 was LIBOR plus 1.5% (or 1.69%) for the LIBOR-based option. The fee payable on committed but unused portions of the revolver was 0.20% at September 27, 2020.

Total cash interest paid was $3.2 million and $6.9 million for the third quarter of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $21.4 million and $19.7 million for the first nine months of 2020 and 2019, respectively.


10.			DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company's credit facility exposes the Company to risks associated with the variability in interest expense associated with fluctuations in LIBOR. To partially mitigate this risk, the Company has historically entered into interest rate swaps. As of September 27, 2020, the Company had a combined notional principal amount of $200.0 million of interest rate swap agreements, all of which are designated as cash flow hedges. These swap agreements effectively convert the interest expense associated with a portion of the Company's variable rate debt from variable interest rates to fixed interest rates and have maturities ranging from February 2022 to March 2022.

The following table summarizes the fair value of derivative contracts included in the condensed consolidated statements of financial position (in thousands):

The interest rate swaps are comprised of over-the-counter derivatives, which are valued using models that primarily rely on observable inputs such as yield curves, which are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

See Note 11 for information regarding accumulated other comprehensive loss on interest rate swaps.


11.			ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

Accumulated other comprehensive loss includes unrealized gains and losses on derivatives that qualify as hedges of cash flows, cumulative foreign currency translation and other adjustments. The activity in accumulated other comprehensive loss during the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020 and September 29, 2019 was as follows:

13.			FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, representing government and other money market funds traded in an active market, are reported on the condensed consolidated statements of financial position as a component of "Cash and cash equivalents". The carrying amount of cash equivalents, valued using Level 1 inputs and approximating fair value because of their relatively short maturities, was approximately $31.0 million and $132.6 million at September 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The estimated fair value of our senior notes, calculated using Level 2 inputs, was approximately $326.1 million and $320.3 million at September 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The carrying amounts of our term loan and our revolver, valued using Level 2 inputs, approximated fair value as of September 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019 based upon terms and conditions available to the Company at those dates in comparison to the terms and conditions of its outstanding debt. The estimated fair value of our convertible notes, calculated using Level 2 inputs, was approximately $166.9 million and $162.5 million as of September 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.


14.			INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2020 and 2019 was 24.3% and 26.0%, respectively, and the effective tax rate for the comparable nine month periods was 25.4% and 24.6%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2020 reflects the impact of certain federal and state income tax benefits and the first nine months of 2020 reflects the impact of $2.2 million of permanent tax differences due to certain Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act payroll tax credits. In addition, the effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2019 includes the impact of the recognition of excess tax benefits on share-based compensation that was recorded as a reduction to income tax expense upon realization in the amount of $0.9 million.

Cash paid for income taxes, net of refunds, was $1.8 million and $1.6 million for the third quarter and nine months of 2020, respectively, and $7.4 million and $30.0 million in the third quarter and nine months of 2019, respectively.


15.			SEGMENT INFORMATION

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Report. In addition, this MD&A contains certain statements relating to future results which are forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. See “Information Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” on page 31 of this Report. The Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW OF MARKETS AND RELATED INDUSTRY PERFORMANCE

Our four primary end markets each experienced sharp recoveries in the third quarter of 2020 following the production disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic in the second quarter of 2020. In aggregate, we achieved our highest quarterly sales in the Company's history in the third quarter of 2020, with revenue from the RV, marine and industrial end markets increasing in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year. RV and marine original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") experienced a strong increase in dealer demand in the third quarter of 2020, when compared to the prior year quarter, driven by increases in RV and marine retail sales against a background of low RV and marine dealer inventories. Our industrial end market benefited in the third quarter of 2020 from increases in housing starts and an increase in home improvement activity. Our MH end market recovered in the third quarter of 2020 from COVID-19 production disruptions in the second quarter of 2020, and OEM demand in this end market is strong despite short-term OEM labor and supply constraints experienced in the third quarter of 2020. In addition, our team members are currently working full production schedules, having adopted CDC, state, and local best practice safety protocols.

Third Quarter and Nine Months 2020 Financial Overview

Recreational Vehicle ("RV") Industry

The RV industry is our largest market and comprised 60% and 55% of the Company’s sales in the third quarter ended September 27, 2020 and September 29, 2019, respectively, and 55% and 56% for the comparative 2020 and 2019 nine month periods. Sales to the RV industry increased 36% in the third quarter of 2020 and decreased 5% in the first nine months of 2020, compared to the prior year periods.

According to the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association, wholesale shipments totaled 124,033 units in the third quarter of 2020, increasing 33% compared to 93,357 units in the third quarter of 2019. Towable and motorized wholesale unit shipments increased 37% and 5%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year quarter. Wholesale unit shipments for the first nine months of 2020 decreased 3%, totaling 300,100 units compared to 309,938 units in the

prior year period. Towable and motorized wholesale unit shipments decreased 1% and 20%, respectively, for the first nine months of 2020 compared to the prior year period. Retail unit sales are estimated to have increased between 25%-30% and between 4%-6% during the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, respectively. The increase in wholesale and retail RV shipments in the third quarter of 2020 was attributed to an increase in consumer demand in the RV industry against a background of low dealer inventory. The decrease in wholesale shipments in the first nine months of 2020 is largely attributed to COVID-19 market disruptions. The increase in retail unit sales for the first nine months of 2020 is largely due to the increase in consumer demand in the RV industry, partially offset by COVID-19 market disruptions. Based on our estimates, RV dealer inventories at the end of the third quarter of 2020 were at their lowest level since 2014.

Marine Industry

Sales to the marine industry, which represented approximately 14% and 13% of the Company's sales in the third quarter of 2020 and 2019, respectively, increased 25% in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year quarter. Sales to the marine industry, representing 14% of sales in the first nine months of 2020 and 2019, decreased 10% in the 2020 period compared to the prior year period.

For the third quarter of 2020, overall marine wholesale unit shipments in the powerboat sector, which is the Company's primary marine market, decreased an estimated 4%, with aluminum fishing sales decreasing an estimated 7%; pontoon sales decreasing an estimated 2%; fiberglass sales decreasing an estimated 4% and ski and wake sales decreasing an estimated 2%. The decrease in wholesale marine shipments in the third quarter of 2020 was attributed to marine OEM capacity constraints that were the result of an rapid transition from production shutdowns related to the COVID-19 pandemic in the late first quarter and early second quarter of 2020 to production acceleration in response to a sharp increase in consumer demand in the third quarter of 2020. For the first nine months of 2020, overall marine wholesale unit shipments in the powerboat sector decreased an estimated 19%, with aluminum fishing sales decreasing an estimated 11%; pontoon sales decreasing an estimated 25%; fiberglass sales decreasing an estimated 22% and ski and wake sales decreasing an estimated 20%. The decrease in wholesale unit shipments during the first nine months of 2020 is primarily attributed to temporary OEM production shutdowns during the late first quarter and early second quarter of 2020 in addition to OEM capacity constraints in the third quarter of 2020, discussed above.

Manufactured Housing ("MH") Industry

Sales to the MH industry, which represented 15% and 19% of the Company’s sales in the third quarter of 2020 and 2019, respectively, decreased 1% in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019. MH sales represented 18% of the Company's sales for the first nine months of 2020 and 2019 and decreased 5% in the first nine months of 2020 compared to the prior year period. Based on industry data from the Manufactured Housing Institute, MH wholesale unit shipments decreased by approximately 2% in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year quarter and decreased 2% for the first nine months of 2020 compared to the prior year period. MH wholesale unit shipments were impacted by OEM labor and supply constraints in the third quarter of 2020 and temporary OEM plant shutdowns in the first nine months of 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Industrial Market

The industrial market is comprised primarily of the kitchen cabinet industry, hospitality market, retail and commercial fixtures market, office and household furniture market and regional distributors. Sales to this market represented 11% and 13% of our sales in the third quarter of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and increased 9% in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year quarter. Sales to the industrial market represented 13% and 12% of our sales for the first nine months of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and increased 7% in the first nine months of 2020 compared to the prior year period. Overall, our revenues in these markets are focused on the residential housing, hospitality, high-rise housing and office, commercial construction and institutional furniture markets. We estimate that approximately 60% of our industrial business is directly tied to the residential housing market, with the remaining 40% directly tied to the non-residential and commercial markets.

Combined housing starts increased 11% in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year quarter, with single family housing starts increasing 17% and multifamily residential starts decreasing 1%. For the first nine months of 2020, combined new housing starts increased 5% compared to the prior year period, with single family housing starts increasing 6% and multifamily residential starts increasing 4%. Our industrial products are generally among the last components installed in new unit construction and as such our related sales typically trail housing starts by four to nine months.

REVIEW OF CONSOLIDATED OPERATING RESULTS

Third Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 27, 2020 Compared to 2019

The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to net sales of certain items on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.


	Third Quarter Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 27, 2020		September 29, 2019		September 27, 2020		September 29, 2019
Net sales	100.0	%	100.0	%	100.0	%	100.0	%
Cost of goods sold	80.9		81.6		81.5		81.9
Gross profit	19.1		18.4		18.5		18.1
Warehouse and delivery	3.6		4.2		4.1		4.2
Selling, general and administrative	5.4		6.0		6.2		5.8
Amortization of intangible assets	1.5		1.6		1.7		1.5
Operating income	8.5		6.6		6.5		6.6
Interest expense, net	1.5		1.5		1.9		1.5
Income taxes	1.7		1.3		1.2		1.3
Net income	5.3		3.8		3.5		3.9

Net Sales. Net sales in the third quarter of 2020 increased $134.5 million, or 24%, to $700.7 million from $566.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. The consolidated net sales increase in the third quarter of 2020 was attributed to sales increases in three of our end markets. The Company's RV market sales increased 36%, marine market sales increased 25%, industrial market sales increased 9% and MH market sales decreased 1% when compared to the prior year quarter.

Net sales in the first nine months of 2020 decreased $73.6 million, or 4%, to $1,714.0 million from $1,787.6 million in the first nine months of 2019. The consolidated net sales decrease in the first nine months of 2020 was attributed to sales decreases in three of our end markets. The Company's RV market sales decreased 5%, marine market sales decreased 10% and MH market sales decreased 5% while industrial market sales increased 7% when compared to the prior year period.

During the nine months ended September 27, 2020, all four of our end markets were impacted by business disruptions and associated lost production and shipping days due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which primarily affected our end markets in the second quarter of 2020.

Revenue attributable to acquisitions completed in 2020 was $19.6 million and $23.3 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, respectively. Revenue attributable to acquisitions completed in the first nine months of 2019 was immaterial for both the third quarter and first nine months of 2019.

The Company’s RV content per wholesale unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis) for the third quarter of 2020 was relative1y flat at $3,140 versus $3,132 for the third quarter of 2019. Estimated marine content per wholesale powerboat unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis) for the third quarter of 2020 increased 16% to $1,915 for the third quarter of 2020 from $1,651 for the third quarter of 2019. Beginning in the third quarter of 2020, we calculate marine content per unit based on estimated wholesale powerboat unit shipments, which we believe better represents the relationship between our sales and marine OEM production, rather than based on estimated retail powerboat unit sales. Estimated MH content per wholesale unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis) for the third quarter of 2020 increased 4% to $4,503 from $4,327 for the third quarter of 2019.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased $105.3 million, or 23%, to $567.2 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $461.9 million in 2019, primarily reflecting the increase in net sales in the quarter. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased during the third quarter of 2020 to 80.9% from 81.6% in 2019. This percentage decrease is largely attributed to an increase in sales relative to certain fixed components of cost of goods sold, synergies achieved and realized in the first quarter of 2020 from acquisitions completed in 2018 and 2019 and a decrease in commodity cost inputs.

Cost of goods sold decreased $66.8 million, or 5%, to $1,397.3 million in the first nine months of 2020 from $1,464.1 million in 2019, primarily reflecting the decrease in net sales in the period. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased during the first nine months of 2020 to 81.5% from 81.9% in 2019.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales decreased in the first nine months of 2020 primarily as a result of (i) cost reductions we initiated in the third quarter of 2019, (ii) synergies achieved and realized in the first nine months of 2020 from our 2018 and 2019 acquisitions and (iii) decreases in commodity cost inputs. These decreases in cost of goods sold were partially offset by additional costs incurred and production and labor inefficiencies related to business disruption of our end markets as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $29.2 million, or 28%, to $133.5 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $104.3 million in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 19.1% in the third quarter of 2020 from 18.4% in the same period in 2019. Gross profit decreased $6.8 million, or 2%, to $316.7 million in the first nine months of 2020 from $323.5 million in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 18.5% in the first nine months of 2020 from 18.1% in the same period in 2019.

The changes in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019 reflect the impact of the factors discussed above under “Cost of Goods Sold”.

Warehouse and Delivery Expenses. Warehouse and delivery expenses increased $1.4 million, or 6%, to $25.3 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $23.9 million in the third quarter of 2019, primarily reflecting the increase in net sales in the quarter. As a percentage of net sales, warehouse and delivery expenses were 3.6% in the third quarter of 2020 compared to 4.2% in the third quarter of 2019. Warehouse and delivery expenses decreased $4.0 million, or 5%, to $70.2 million in the first nine months of 2020 from $74.2 million in the first nine months of 2019, primarily reflecting the decrease in net sales in the period. As a percentage of net sales, warehouse and delivery expenses were 4.1% in the first nine months of 2020 compared to 4.2% in the same period in 2019.

The decrease in warehouse and delivery expenses as a percentage of net sales for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 primarily reflects the fixed nature of certain of these expenses and operating efficiencies as net sales increased in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year period.

Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") Expenses. SG&A expenses increased $4.4 million, or 13%, to $38.2 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $33.8 million in the prior year quarter. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 5.4% in the third quarter of 2020 compared to 6.0% in the third quarter of 2019.

SG&A expenses increased $1.3 million, or 1%, to $105.7 million in the first nine months of 2020 from $104.4 million in the prior year period. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 6.2% in the first nine months of 2020 compared to 5.8% in the prior year period.

The increase in SG&A expenses in the third quarter of 2020 compared to 2019 is primarily due an increase in general and administrative expenses as the Company expanded resources to support end market demand. The decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter of 2020 is primarily attributed to the increase in net sales compared to the prior year period.

The increase in SG&A expenses in the first nine months of 2020 as a percentage of revenue is attributed to the decline in net sales from the impact of COVID-19, discussed above.

Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets increased $1.0 million, or 11%, to $10.2 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $9.2 million in the prior year quarter and increased $3.2 million, or 12%, to $29.6 million in the first nine months of 2020 from $26.4 million in the prior year period. The increase in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 compared to the prior year periods primarily reflects the impact of businesses acquired in 2019 and 2020.

Operating Income. Operating income increased $22.4 million, or 60%, to $59.8 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $37.4 million in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, operating income was 8.5% in the third quarter of 2020 versus 6.6% in the same period in 2019. Operating income decreased $7.3 million, or 6%, to $111.2 million in the first nine months of

2020 from $118.5 million in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, operating income was 6.5% in the first nine months of 2020 versus 6.6% in the same period in 2019. Operating income related to the 2020 acquisitions for the third quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2020 was approximately $2.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The change in operating income and operating income percentage is primarily attributable to the items discussed above.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense increased $1.9 million, or 22%, to $10.5 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $8.6 million in the prior year. For the first nine months of 2020, interest expense increased $5.6 million, or 21%, to $31.8 million from $26.2 million in the prior year period.

The increase in interest expense in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 reflects increased borrowings related to 2019 and 2020 acquisitions and an increase in the Company's overall average interest rate resulting from the issuance of $300 million aggregate principal amount of 7.5% senior notes in the third quarter of 2019.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense increased $4.5 million, or 60%, to $12.0 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $7.5 million in the prior year period. For the first nine months of 2020, income tax expense decreased $2.5 million, or 11%, to $20.2 million for the first nine months of 2020 from $22.7 million in the prior year period.

The effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2020 and 2019 was 24.3% and 26.0%, respectively, and the effective tax rate for the comparable nine month periods was 25.4% and 24.6%, respectively. The effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2020 reflects the impact of certain federal and state income tax benefits, and the effective tax rate in the first nine months of 2020 reflects $2.2 million of permanent tax differences due to certain Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act payroll tax credits. In addition, the effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2019 includes the impact of the recognition of excess tax benefits on share-based compensation that was recorded as a reduction to income tax expense upon realization in the amount of $0.9 million.

Use of Financial Metrics

Our MD&A includes financial metrics, such as RV, marine and MH content per unit, which we believe are important measures of the Company's business performance. Content per unit metrics are generally calculated using our market sales divided by third-party measures of industry volume. These metrics should not be considered alternatives to U.S. GAAP. Our computations of content per unit may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. These metrics should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP.

REVIEW BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

The Company's reportable segments, Manufacturing and Distribution, are based on its method of internal reporting. The Company regularly evaluates the performance of the Manufacturing and Distribution segments and allocates resources to them based on a variety of indicators including sales and operating income. The Company does not measure profitability at the customer market (RV, marine, MH and industrial) level.

Third Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 27, 2020 Compared to 2019

General

In the discussion that follows, sales attributable to the Company’s reportable segments include intersegment sales and gross profit includes the impact of intersegment operating activity.

The table below presents information about the sales, gross profit and operating income of the Company’s reportable segments. A reconciliation of consolidated operating income is presented in Note 15 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Manufacturing

Sales. Sales increased $98.5 million, or 24%, to $506.3 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $407.8 million in the prior year quarter. For the first nine months of 2020, sales decreased $53.0 million, or 4%, to $1,230.8 million from $1,283.8 million in the prior year period. This segment accounted for approximately 71% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 2020 and 2019, and 70% of the Company's consolidated net sales for the first nine months of 2020 and 2019. The sales increase in the third quarter of 2020 largely reflected sales increases in the RV, marine, and industrial markets compared to the prior year quarter. The sales decrease for the first nine months of 2020 was primarily attributed to sales decreases in our primary end markets as a result of business disruptions and lost production and shipping days due to the COVID-19 pandemic that occurred primarily in the second quarter of 2020.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $23.8 million, or 32%, to $97.5 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $73.7 million in the third quarter of 2019. For the first nine months of 2020, gross profit decreased $5.8 million, or 2%, to $225.4 million from $231.2 million in 2019. As a percentage of sales, gross profit increased to 19.3% in the third quarter of 2020 from 18.1% in the third quarter of 2019 and increased to 18.3% in the first nine months of 2020 from 18.0% in the prior year period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased during the third quarter of 2020 primarily due to an increase in net sales relative to certain fixed components of costs of goods sold as well as a decrease in commodity cost inputs. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased in first nine months of 2020 compared to the prior year period primarily due to a decrease in commodity cost inputs, partially offset by operational and labor inefficiencies as a result of business disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic incurred in the second quarter of 2020.

Operating Income. Operating income increased $20.9 million, or 49%, to $63.3 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $42.4 million in the prior year quarter. For the first nine months of 2020, operating income decreased $4.2 million, or 3%, to $131.4 million from $135.6 million in the prior year. The overall increase in operating income in the third quarter of 2020 and the overall decrease in operating income in the first nine months of 2020 primarily reflects the items discussed above.

Distribution

Sales. Sales increased $40.6 million, or 24%, to $208.1 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $167.5 million in the prior year quarter. For the first nine months of 2020, sales decreased $19.4 million, or 4%, to $511.9 million from $531.3 million in the prior year period. This segment accounted for approximately 29% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 2020 and 2019, and 30% of consolidated net sales for the first nine months of 2020 and 2019. The sales increase in the third quarter of 2020 was primarily attributed to sales increases in our RV, marine, and industrial markets. The decrease in sales in the first nine months of 2020 was primarily attributed to sales decreases in our primary end

markets as a result of business disruptions and lost production and shipping days due to the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily in the second quarter of 2020.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $8.3 million, or 30%, to $36.3 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $28.0 million in the third quarter of 2019. For the first nine months of 2020, gross profit increased $0.9 million, or 1%, to $88.6 million from $87.7 million in 2019. As a percentage of sales, gross profit increased to 17.4% in the third quarter of 2020 from 16.7% in the third quarter of 2019 and increased to 17.3% in the first nine months of 2020 from 16.5% in the prior year period.

As a percentage of sales, gross profit increased during the third quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to realized synergies from certain 2018 and 2019 acquisitions. For the first nine months of 2020, gross profit as a percentage of sales increased primarily due to realized synergies from certain 2018 and 2019 acquisitions, partially offset by additional costs and operational inefficiencies as a result of business disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic primarily in the second quarter of 2020.

Operating Income. Operating income increased $7.4 million, or 82%, to $16.4 million in the third quarter of 2020 from $9.0 million in the prior year quarter. For the first nine months of 2020, operating income increased $5.2 million, or 19%, to $33.3 million from $28.1 million in the prior year. The overall increase in operating income in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 primarily reflects the items discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our liquidity at September 27, 2020 consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $62.3 million and $410.3 million of unused borrowing availability under our credit facility.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities are one of the Company's primary sources of liquidity, representing the net income the Company earned in the reported periods, adjusted for non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $9.2 million to $112.8 million in the first nine months of 2020 from $122.0 million in the first nine months of 2019 primarily due to (i) a decrease of net income of $10.4 million due to disruptions in our end markets as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic; (ii) an increase in the use of cash from working capital of $4.8 million and (iii) a decrease of deferred income tax liabilities of $3.3 million. These decreases in operating cash flows were partially offset by an increase of depreciation and amortization of $6.5 million and other items of $2.8 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased $105.3 million to $145.4 million in the first nine months of 2020 from $40.1 million in the first nine months of 2019 primarily due to an increase in cash used in business acquisitions of $101.0 million and a decrease in proceeds from sale of property, plant, and equipment and other investing activities of $4.4 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash flows used by financing activities increased $72.2 million to $44.4 million in first nine months of 2020 from a source of cash of $27.8 million in the first nine months of 2019 primarily due to (i) the issuance of $300 million of senior notes in the first nine months of 2019 with no comparable amount in the first nine months of 2020; (ii) cash dividends paid to shareholders of $17.3 million in the first nine months of 2020 with no corresponding amount in the prior year period and (iii) an increase in stock repurchases under our buyback program of $16.7 million. These increases in cash used in financing activities were partially offset by (i) a decrease in repayments on our revolving credit facility and term loan of $251.1 million; (ii) a decrease in payment of deferred financing costs of $7.2 million and (iii) a decrease in the payment of contingent consideration from a business acquisition and other financing activities of $3.5 million.

Summary of Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and available borrowings under its credit facility are expected to be sufficient to meet anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months, exclusive of any acquisitions, based on its current cash flow budgets and forecast of short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

The Company's credit facility consists of a $550 million senior secured revolver and a $100 million senior secured term loan. The maturity date for borrowings under the credit agreement that established the credit facility is September 17, 2024. Upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, and obtaining incremental commitments from its lenders, the Company may be able to increase the borrowing capacity of the credit facility by up to $250 million. Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by substantially all personal property assets of the Company and any domestic subsidiary guarantors. Pursuant to the credit agreement:

•The term loan is due in consecutive quarterly installments in the following amounts: (i) through and including June 30, 2021, $1,250,000 and (ii) beginning September 30, 2021, and each quarter thereafter, $2,500,000, with the remaining balance due at maturity;

•The interest rates for borrowings under the revolver and the term loan are the Prime Rate or LIBOR

plus a margin, which ranges from 0.00% to 0.75% for Prime Rate loans and from 1.00% to 1.75% for LIBOR

loans depending on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio. The Company is required to pay fees on unused but committed portions of the revolver, which range from 0.15% to 0.225%.

On July 27, 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), announced that it intends to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021. We expect that widespread use of LIBOR as a reference borrowing rate will transition to alternative interest rates in the near future. Since interest rates on loans made under our credit facility may be based on LIBOR based loans, the phasing out of LIBOR may adversely affect interest rates under our credit facility and result in higher borrowing costs. The Company is currently evaluating its options under our credit facility, but at this time we cannot reasonably estimate the impact to our financial statements from the phasing out of LIBOR.

At September 27, 2020, the Company had $410.3 million of unused borrowing availability under its credit facility. The ability to access unused borrowing capacity under the credit facility as a source of liquidity is dependent on maintaining compliance with the financial covenants as specified under the terms of the credit agreement.

As of and for the September 27, 2020 reporting date, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants as required under the terms of its credit agreement. The required maximum consolidated total leverage ratio and the required minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, as such ratios are defined in the credit agreement, compared to the actual amounts as of September 27, 2020 and for the fiscal period then ended are as follows:


	Required	Actual
Maximum consolidated total leverage ratio (12-month period)	4.00	2.24
Minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (12-month period)	1.50	5.76

Working capital requirements vary from period to period depending on manufacturing volumes, the timing of deliveries, and the payment cycles of customers. In the event that operating cash flow is inadequate and one or more of the Company's capital resources were to become unavailable, the Company would seek to revise its operating strategies accordingly. The Company will continue to assess its liquidity position and potential sources of supplemental liquidity in view of operating performance, current economic and capital market conditions, and other relevant circumstances.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies which are summarized in the MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

OTHER

Seasonality

Operations in the RV, marine and MH industries historically have been seasonal and at their highest levels when the weather is moderate. Accordingly, the Company’s sales and profits had generally been the highest in the third quarter and lowest in the fourth quarter. Seasonal industry trends in the past several years have included the impact related to the addition of major RV manufacturer open houses for dealers in the August/September timeframe as well as marine open houses in the January/February timeframe, resulting in dealers delaying certain restocking purchases until new product lines are introduced at these shows. In addition, current and future seasonal industry trends may be different than in prior years due to the impact of national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and other products for which the Company sells its components, timing of dealer orders, fluctuations in dealer inventories, and from time to time, the impact of severe weather conditions on the timing of industry-wide wholesale shipments.

INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Company makes forward-looking statements with respect to financial condition, results of operations, business strategies, operating efficiencies or synergies, competitive position, growth opportunities for existing products, plans and objectives of management, markets for the common stock of Patrick Industries, Inc. and other matters from time to time and desires to take advantage of the “safe harbor” which is afforded such statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 when they are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. The statements contained in the foregoing “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, as well as other statements contained in this quarterly report and statements contained in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), publicly disseminated press releases, quarterly earnings conference calls, and statements which may be made from time to time in the future by management of the Company in presentations to shareholders, prospective investors, and others interested in the business and financial affairs of the Company, which are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Any projections of financial performance or statements concerning expectations as to future developments should not be construed in any manner as a guarantee that such results or developments will, in fact, occur. There can be no assurance that any forward-looking statement will be realized or that actual results will not be significantly different from that set forth in such forward-looking statement. Information about certain risks that could affect our business and cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements are contained in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and in the Company's Forms 10-Q for subsequent quarterly periods, which are filed with the SEC and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.


ITEM 3.			QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Debt Obligations under Credit Agreement

At September 27, 2020, our total debt obligations under our credit agreement were under LIBOR-based interest rates. A 100-basis point increase in the underlying LIBOR and prime rates would result in additional annual interest cost of approximately $0.3 million, assuming average borrowings, including our term loan, subject to variable rates of $30.0 million, which was the amount of such borrowings outstanding at September 27, 2020 subject to variable rates. The $30.0 million excludes deferred financing costs related to the term loan and $200.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the revolver and term loan that are hedged at a fixed interest rate through interest rate swaps.

Commodity Price Volatility

The prices of key raw materials, consisting primarily of lauan, gypsum, particleboard, aluminum, softwoods lumber, and petroleum-based products are influenced by demand and other factors specific to these commodities, such as the price of oil, rather than being directly affected by inflationary pressures. Prices of certain commodities have historically been volatile and continued to fluctuate in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020. During periods of volatile commodity prices, we have generally been able to pass both price increases and decreases to our customers in the form of price adjustments. We are exposed to risks during periods of commodity volatility because there can be no assurance that future cost increases or decreases, if any, can be partially or fully passed on to customers, or that the timing of such sales price

increases or decreases will match raw material cost increases or decreases. We do not believe that commodity price volatility had a material effect on results of operations for the periods presented.


ITEM 4.			CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains “disclosure controls and procedures”, as such term is defined under Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and the Company’s management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to the Company, including consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our reports filed 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 the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the third quarter ended September 27, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

Items 3, 4 and 5 of Part II are not applicable and have been omitted.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In August 2019, a group of companies calling itself the Lusher Site Remediation Group (the “Group”) commenced litigation against the Company in Lusher Site Remediation Group v. Sturgis Iron & Metal Co., Inc., et al., Case Number 3:18-cv-00506, pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Indiana. The Group’s Second Amended Complaint, which was the first to assert claims against Patrick, asserted claims under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), 42 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq., an Indiana state environmental statute and Indiana common law. One defendant in the case, Sturgis Iron & Metal Co., Inc. (“Sturgis”) subsequently filed two cross claims against Patrick, asserting against the Company a claim for (i) contribution under CERCLA and (ii) contractual indemnity. The Company moved to dismiss the Group’s claims and also moved to dismiss Sturgis’s cross claims. On August 21, 2020, the court granted Patrick’s two motions to dismiss. The Group subsequently moved for reconsideration of the court’s decision. That reconsideration motion is still pending. The Company does not currently believe that this matter is likely to have a material adverse impact on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, any litigation is inherently uncertain, and any judgment or injunctive relief entered against us or any adverse settlement could materially and adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects.


ITEM 1A.			RISK FACTORS

“Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Form 10-K includes a discussion of our risk factors. The information presented below updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors and information disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Except as presented below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors described in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The global spread of the COVID-19 virus and measures implemented to combat it have had, and are expected to continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business.

The global spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in recent months has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption in financial markets. The impact of this pandemic has created significant uncertainty in the global economy and has had, and is expected to continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business, employees, suppliers, and customers. The duration and magnitude of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be precisely estimated at this time, as each is affected by a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and potential future pandemic outbreaks, we face significant risks including, but not limited to:

•Decreases in consumer confidence and disposable income and increases in unemployment could reduce demand for our products by our customers in all of our end markets.

•Tightening credit standards could negatively impact credit availability to consumers which could have an adverse effect on all of our end markets.

•Supply chain and shipping interruptions and constraints, volatility in demand for our products caused by sudden and significant changes in production levels by our customers or other restrictions affecting our business could adversely impact our planning and forecasting, our revenues and our operations.

•Disruptions in our manufacturing and supply arrangements caused by the loss or disruption of essential manufacturing and supply elements such as raw materials or other finished product components, transportation, workforce, or other manufacturing and distribution capabilities could result in our inability to meet our end market customer needs and achieve cost targets.

•Significant changes in the conditions in markets in which we manufacture, sell or distribute our products, including additional or expanded quarantines or "stay at home" orders, governmental or regulatory actions,

closures or other restrictions that further limit or close our operating and manufacturing facilities, restrict our employees’ ability to travel or perform necessary business functions, restrict or prevent consumers from having access to our products, or otherwise prevent our suppliers or customers from sufficiently staffing operations, could adversely impact operations necessary for the production, distribution, sale, and support of our products.

•Failure of third parties on which we rely, including our customers, suppliers, distributors, commercial banks, and other external business partners, to meet their obligations to the Company or to timely meet those obligations, or significant disruptions in their ability to do so, which may be caused by their own financial or operational difficulties, may adversely impact our operations.

•Certain of our customers may experience financial difficulties, including bankruptcy or insolvency, as a result of the impact of COVID-19. If any of our customers suffer significant financial difficulties, they may be unable to pay amounts due to us fully, partially, or timely. Further, we may have to negotiate significant discounts and/or extended financing terms with these customers in such a situation. If we are unable to collect our accounts receivable as they come due, there may be a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

•If we are unable to maintain normal operations, or subsequently are unable to resume normal operations in a timely fashion, our cash flows could be adversely affected, making it difficult to maintain adequate liquidity or meet debt covenants. As a result, the Company may be required to pursue additional sources of financing to meet our financial obligations and fund our operations and obtaining such financing is not guaranteed and is largely dependent upon market conditions and other factors.

•Disruptions to our operations related to COVID-19 as a result of absenteeism by infected or ill members of management or other employees, or absenteeism by members of management and other employees who elect not to come to work due to the illness affecting others at our facilities, or due to quarantines.

•The COVID-19 pandemic has led to and could continue to lead to severe disruption and volatility in the United States and global capital markets, which could increase our cost of capital and adversely affect our ability to access the capital markets in the future. In addition, trading prices in the public equity markets, including prices of our common stock, have been highly volatile as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

•Sustained adverse impacts to the Company, certain suppliers, and customers may also affect the Company’s future valuation of certain assets and therefore may increase the likelihood of an impairment charge, write-off, or reserve associated with such assets, including goodwill, indefinite and finite-lived intangible assets, property and equipment, inventories, accounts receivable, tax assets, and other assets.

The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows is highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted and is dependent on future developments, including the duration of the pandemic and the length of its impact on the global economy, as well as any new information that may emerge concerning the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken to contain it or mitigate its impact. The continued impact on our business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, prospects and the trading prices of our securities in the near-term and beyond 2020.
