INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to financial condition, results of operations, business strategies, operating efficiencies or synergies, competitive position, industry growth and projections, growth opportunities for existing products, plans and objectives of management, markets for the common stock of Patrick Industries, Inc. (the “Company” or “Patrick”) and other matters. Statements in this Form 10-K as well as other statements contained in the annual report and statements contained in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and publicly disseminated press releases, and statements which may be made from time to time in the future by management of the Company in presentations, 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.
There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, which could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Many, but not all, of these factors are identified in the “Risk Factors” section of this Form 10-K as set forth in Part I, Item 1A, and include, without limitation, the impact of any economic downturns especially in the residential housing market, a decline in discretionary consumer spending, pricing pressures due to competition, costs and availability of raw materials and commodities, the imposition of restrictions and taxes on imports of raw materials and components used in our products, information technology performance and cyber-related risks, the availability of commercial credit, the availability of retail and wholesale financing for recreational vehicles, watercraft, and residential and manufactured homes, the availability and costs of labor, inventory levels of retailers and manufacturers, the financial condition of our customers, retention and concentration of material customers, the ability to generate cash flow or obtain financing to fund growth, future growth rates in the Company's core businesses, the seasonality and cyclicality in the industries to which our products are sold, realization and impact of efficiency improvements and cost reductions, the successful integration of acquisitions and other growth initiatives, increases in interest rates and oil and gasoline prices, the ability to retain key management personnel, adverse weather conditions impacting retail sales, our ability to remain in compliance with our credit agreement covenants, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy, our end markets and our operations, and national and regional economic, market and political conditions. You should consider forward-looking statements, therefore, in light of various important factors, including those set forth in the reports and documents that the Company files with the SEC, including this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
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 materially different from that set forth in such forward-looking statement. The Company does not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. See Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” below for further discussion.

Company Overview
Patrick is a major manufacturer and distributor of component and building products and materials serving original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) primarily in the recreational vehicle (“RV”), marine, manufactured housing (“MH”) and industrial markets.

The Company operates through a nationwide network that includes, as of December 31, 2020, 141 manufacturing plants and 58 warehouse and distribution facilities located in 23 states, China, Canada and the Netherlands. The Company operates within two reportable segments, Manufacturing and Distribution, through a nationwide network of manufacturing and distribution centers for its products, thereby reducing in-transit delivery time and cost to the regional manufacturing footprint of its customers.

Financial information about these operating segments is included in Note 18 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "Form 10-K") and incorporated herein by reference.

The Company’s strategic and capital allocation strategy is to optimally manage and utilize its resources and leverage its platform of operating brands to continue to grow and reinvest in its business. Through strategic acquisitions, expansion both geographically and into new product lines and investment in infrastructure and capital expenditures, Patrick seeks to ensure that its operating network contains capacity, technology and innovative thought processes to support anticipated growth needs, effectively respond to changes in market conditions, inventory and sales levels, and successfully integrate manufacturing, distribution and administrative functions.

Over the last three years, we have executed on a number of new product initiatives and invested approximately $705 million in acquisitions that directly complement our core competencies and existing product lines as well as expand our presence in our primary end markets.

The Company’s principal executive and administrative offices are located at 107 West Franklin Street, Elkhart, Indiana 46515 and the telephone number is (574) 294-7511; Internet website address: www.patrickind.com.

Recreational Vehicles
The Company’s RV products are sold primarily to major manufacturers of RVs, smaller OEMs, and to a lesser extent, manufacturers in adjacent industries. The principal types of recreational vehicles include (1) towables: conventional travel trailers, fifth wheels, folding camping trailers, and truck campers; and (2) motorized: class A (large motor homes), class B (van campers), and class C (small-to-mid size motor homes). The RV market is primarily dominated by Thor Industries, Inc. (“Thor”), Forest River, Inc. (“Forest River”) and Winnebago Industries, Inc. ("Winnebago") which combined held 91% of retail market share for towables and 86% for motorized units for 2020 as reported per Statistical Surveys, Inc. ("SSI").

In the late first quarter and early second quarter of 2020, we temporarily curtailed production at certain of our facilities in alignment with the temporary production shutdowns by our RV OEM customers in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the second half of 2020, OEM production improved sharply in response to a strong increase in retail and wholesale demand for RV units, and our sales to our RV OEM customers correspondingly improved. According to the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (the “RVIA”), wholesale industry unit shipments increased 6% in 2020, while RV retail unit sales, according to SSI, increased by 12%. With RV retail sales outpacing wholesale unit shipments in 2020, dealer inventories, which were already at historically low levels entering 2020, declined by more than 80,000 units in 2020, resulting in dealer inventories at their lowest levels in the last decade.

We estimate that our mix of RV revenues related to towable units and motorized units is consistent with the overall RV industry production mix. In 2020, according to the RVIA, towable and motorized unit shipments represented approximately 91% and 9%, respectively, of total RV industry wholesale shipments and wholesale unit shipments increased 8% in the towable sector in 2020 compared to the prior year and decreased 13% in the motorized sector.

Recreational vehicle purchases are generally consumer discretionary income purchases, and therefore, any situation which causes concerns related to discretionary income can have a negative impact on this market. The Company believes that industry-wide retail sales and the related production levels of RVs will continue to be dependent on the overall strength of the economy, consumer confidence levels, equity securities market trends, fluctuations in dealer inventories, the level of disposable income, and other demographic trends.

Demographic and ownership trends continue to point to favorable market growth in the long term in the recreational vehicle market, as there is a shift toward outdoor, nature-based tourism activities, with a large segment of the population’s “millennials” and "Gen Xers" embracing this outdoor lifestyle and entering into the RV marketplace as well as an increasing percentage of new campers from more diverse groups. At the same time, the COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to increased consumer interest in the RV lifestyle. According to the May and October 2020 KOA North American Camping Reports, based on surveys of North American leisure travelers, camping trips and road trips are viewed as the safest forms of travel activities in the current COVID-19 environment, and spending time outdoors with family is the leading motivating factor to return to traveling among leisure travelers and campers.

Detailed narrative information about the Company’s sales to the RV industry is included in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (the "MD&A") of this Form 10-K.

Marine
The marine industry reflects the active, outdoor leisure-based, family-oriented lifestyle that characterizes the RV industry and the Company has increased its focus and expanded its presence in this market through recent acquisitions, particularly within the last three years. Consumer demand in the marine market is generally driven by the popularity of the recreational and leisure lifestyle and by economic conditions. Similar to our RV market, the marine industry was impacted by COVID-19 disruptions in 2020 with our plants experiencing temporary shutdowns in the late first quarter and early second quarter of 2020, which were then followed by sharp increases in marine demand in the second half of 2020, which we believe is driven in part by an increased interest in outdoor activities, including marine activities, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on leisure preferences.

According to the National Marine Manufacturers Association ("NMMA"), per its 2019 U.S. Recreational Boating Statistical Abstract (the "Abstract"), it is estimated that there were approximately 12 million registered boats in the U.S. in 2019. Total U.S. retail expenditures on boats, engines, accessories, and related costs totaled approximately $43.1 billion in 2019, up approximately 3% from 2018 as stated in the Abstract. The average age of boats currently in use is approximately 25 years compared to an average useful life of 30 years, and the expected number of boats to be retired over the next four years is approximately one million, according to NMMA.

The Company’s sales to the marine industry are primarily focused on the powerboat sector of the market which is comprised of four main categories: fiberglass, aluminum fishing, pontoon and ski & wake. Based on current available data per SSI through December 2020, within the powerboat sector for 2020, fiberglass units accounted for approximately 38% of retail unit sales, aluminum 27%, pontoon 29% and ski & wake 6%. Based on current available data per SSI through December 2020, marine powerboat retail unit shipments increased 15% in 2020 compared to 2019, while marine wholesale unit shipments decreased approximately 14% in 2020 compared to 2019, resulting in historically low marine dealer inventories. Additional information about the Company’s sales to the marine industry is included in the MD&A of this Form 10-K.

Manufactured Housing
The Company’s manufactured housing products are sold primarily to major manufacturers of manufactured homes, other OEMs, and to a lesser extent, to manufacturers in adjacent industries. In the aggregate, the top three manufacturers produced approximately 77% of MH market retail unit shipments in 2020 per SSI.

Although wholesale unit shipments have increased in the MH industry from a low of approximately 49,800 units in 2009 to 94,000 units in 2020, they are still trending well below historical levels. The Company believes there is upside potential for this market in the long term driven by pent-up demand, multi-family housing capacity, improving consumer credit and financing conditions, residential housing market conditions, higher consumer confidence levels, increased affordability and quality, demographic trends such as first time home buyers and urban-to-suburban trends, new home pricing, and improved consumer savings levels.

Factors that may favorably impact production levels further in this industry include improving quality credit standards in the residential housing market, new jobs growth, consumer confidence, favorable changes in financing regulations, a narrowing in the difference between interest rates on MH loans and mortgages on traditional residential "stick-built" housing, and any improvement in conditions in the asset-backed securities markets for manufactured housing loans.

The MH industry was impacted by disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, which resulted in plant shutdowns in the late first quarter and early second quarter of 2020, followed by a recovery that, compared to our RV and marine end markets, emerged more slowly as a result of MH OEM labor and supply disruptions that did not begin to subside until late 2020.

In addition, MH loan program initiatives by Fannie Mae are expected to increase MH loan availability and reduce the total cost of MH borrowing, with a potential resulting increase in MH demand.

Additional information about the Company’s sales to the MH industry is included in the MD&A of this Form 10-K.

Industrial Markets
We estimate that approximately 60% of our industrial net sales in 2020 were associated with the U.S. residential housing market. We believe that there is a direct correlation between the demand for our products in this market and new residential housing construction and remodeling activities. Patrick's sales to the industrial market generally lag new housing starts by four to six months as our industrial products are generally among the last components installed in new unit construction and will vary based on differences in regional economic prospects. 

Many of Patrick's core manufacturing products are also utilized in the kitchen cabinet, high-rise, office and household furniture, hospitality, and fixtures and commercial furnishings markets. These markets are generally
7



categorized by a more performance-than-price driven customer base, and provide an opportunity for the Company to diversify its customer base. Additionally, other residential and commercial segments have been less vulnerable to import competition, and therefore, provide opportunities for increased sales penetration and market share gains. Over the past three years, the residential housing market in particular has benefited from a low interest rate environment and tight housing market conditions across the country, and that trend is expected to continue in 2021.

Additional information about the Company’s sales to the industrial markets is included in the MD&A of this Form 10-K.

Strategic Acquisitions
The Company is focused on driving growth in its primary markets through the acquisition of companies with strong management teams having a strategic fit with Patrick’s core values, business model and customer presence, as well as additional product lines, facilities, or other assets to complement or expand its existing businesses. The Company may explore strategic acquisition opportunities that are not directly tied to the four primary markets it serves in order to further leverage its core competencies in manufacturing and distribution and to diversify its end market exposure and presence.

In 2020, the Company invested approximately $307 million in acquisitions and over the last three years has completed approximately $703 million of acquisitions. See Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of acquisitions completed by the Company in 2020, 2019 and 2018.

Competition
The RV, MH, marine and industrial markets are highly competitive, both among manufacturers and the suppliers of various components. The barriers to entry for each industry are generally low and include compliance with industry standards, codes and safety requirements, and the initial capital investment required to establish manufacturing operations. In addition, the Company competes with manufacturers of manufactured homes with vertically integrated operations. Across the Company’s range of products and services, competition exists primarily on price, product features and innovation, timely and reliable delivery, quality and customer service. Several competitors compete with Patrick in each product line on a regional and local basis. However, in order for a competitor to compete with Patrick on a national basis, the Company believes that a substantial capital commitment and investment in personnel and facilities would be required.
Capacity and Plant Expansions
Patrick has the ability to fulfill demand for certain products in excess of capacity at certain facilities by shifting production to other facilities. Capital expenditures for 2020 consisted of $32.1 million of investments primarily to replace and upgrade production equipment, expand facilities outside of core Midwest markets to align with OEM expansions, increase capacity, and provide more advanced manufacturing automation. Management regularly monitors capacity at its facilities and reallocates existing resources where needed to maintain production efficiencies throughout all of its operations and capitalize on commercial and industrial synergies in key regions to support profitable growth, grow its customer base, and expand its geographical product reach outside its core Midwest market.

Branding
New product development is a key component of the Company’s efforts to grow its market share and revenue base, adapt to changing market conditions, and proactively address customer demand. The Company has expanded its product and service offerings with the integration of new and innovative product lines into its operations that bring additional value to customers and create additional scale advantages.

The Studio
The Company's Design/Innovation Center and Showroom, The Studio, is located in Elkhart, Indiana. The Studio presents the latest design trends and products in the markets served by Patrick, and provides a creative environment for customers to design products and enhance their brand. The 45,000 square foot facility includes a 25,000 square foot showroom devoted to the display of products, capabilities and services offered by each of Patrick’s business units, in addition to offices and conference rooms. The Company’s specialized team of designers, engineers and graphic artists works with RV, MH, marine and industrial customers to meet their creative design and product needs, including creating new styles and utilizing new colors, patterns, products, and materials for panels and mouldings, cabinet doors, furniture, lighting and other products. Other services provided at The Studio include product development, 3D CAD illustration, 3D printing, photography and marketing.

Marine Studio
The Company's Marine Studio, which was opened in February 2020 and is located in Sarasota, Florida, is a comprehensive marine studio showroom, design and engineering center, which provides engineering and integrated design solutions for our marine customers. The 14,000 square foot facility includes a showroom that displays the Company's marine products as well as the marine design and engineering capabilities and services offered by our marine businesses.

Operating Brands
Through its operating brands, the Company provides customers with specific product knowledge, expertise and support that are tailored to their needs. The Company strives to be the supplier of choice for its customers by elevating the customer purchasing experience with expert product line managers, and support staff and strategic partnerships for each operating brand, which help drive efficiency and maximize value for its customers.

Patrick has no material licenses, franchises, or concessions and does not conduct material research and development activities.
Marketing and Distribution
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had over 3,300 active customers. Its revenues from the RV market include sales to two major manufacturers of RVs that each account for over 10% of the Company's net sales, Forest River and Thor. Both Forest River and Thor have multiple businesses and brands that operate independently under the parent company and these multiple businesses and brands generally purchase our products independently from one another. The Company’s sales to the various businesses of Forest River and Thor, on a combined basis, accounted for 39%, 40% and 49% of our consolidated net sales, for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The Company generally maintains supplies of various commodity products in its warehouses to ensure that it has product on hand at all times for its distribution customers. The Company purchases a majority of its distribution segment products in railcar, container, or truckload quantities, which are warehoused prior to their sale to customers. Approximately 12%, 12%, 15% of the Company's distribution segment’s sales were from products shipped directly from the suppliers to Patrick customers in 2020, 2019, 2018, respectively. Typically there is a one to two-week period between Patrick receiving a purchase order and the delivery of products to its warehouses or customers and, as a result, the Company has no material backlog of orders. In periods of declining market conditions, customer order rates can decline, resulting in less efficient logistics planning and fulfillment and thus increasing delivery costs due to increased numbers of shipments with fewer products in each shipment.

Raw Materials
Patrick has arrangements with certain suppliers that specify exclusivity in certain geographic areas, pricing structures and rebate agreements among other terms.

9



Raw materials are primarily commodity products, such as lauan, gypsum, particleboard and other softwood and hardwood lumber products, aluminum, copper, plastic resin, fiberglass and overlays, among others which are available from many suppliers. Our customers do not maintain long-term supply contracts, and therefore, the Company bears the risk of accurate forecasting of customer orders. Our sales in the short-term could be negatively impacted in the event any unforeseen negative circumstances were to affect our major suppliers. In addition, demand changes in certain market sectors can result in fluctuating costs of certain more commodity-oriented raw materials and other products that are utilized and distributed.

The Company continually explores alternative sources of raw materials and components, both domestically and from outside the U.S. Alternate sources of supply are available for all of its material purchases.

Regulation and Environmental Quality
The Company’s operations are subject to environmental laws and regulations administered by federal, state, and local regulatory authorities including requirements relating to air, water and noise pollution. Additionally, these requirements regulate the Company's use, storage, discharge and disposal of hazardous chemicals used or generated during specific manufacturing processes.

Select products are subject to various legally binding or voluntary standards. For example, the composite wood substrate materials that Patrick utilizes in the production process in the RV marketplace have been certified as to compliance with applicable emission standards developed by the California Air Resources Board (“CARB”). All suppliers and manufacturers of composite wood materials are required to comply with the current CARB regulations.

The Company is certified to sell Forestry Stewardship Council (“FSC”) materials to its customers at certain of its manufacturing branches. The FSC certification provides a link between responsible production and consumption of materials from the world’s forests and assists the Company’s customers in making socially and environmentally responsible buying decisions on the products they purchase. Upholstered products and mattresses provided by the Company for RVs must comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards regulated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration regarding flammability.

The Company also produces and provides products for manufactured homes that must comply with performance and construction regulations promulgated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”).

Seasonality

Manufacturing 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 second 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 and marine open houses in the December-February timeframe, resulting in dealers delaying certain restocking purchases until new product lines are introduced at these shows. In addition, recent seasonal industry trends have been, and future trends may be, different than in prior years due to the impact of COVID-19, volatile economic conditions, interest rates, access to financing, cost of fuel, national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and marine units and other products for which the Company sells its components, as well as fluctuations in RV and marine dealer inventories, increased volatility in demand from RV and marine dealers, the timing of dealer orders, and from time to time, the impact of severe weather conditions on the timing of industry-wide wholesale shipments.

Human Capital Management
Our people are the heart of our business, and we allocate substantial resources to foster the well-being, success and growth of our team members in an inclusive and diverse environment which we believe is fundamental to our values and our service to our customers. At December 31, 2020, our team members totaled 8,700, of which 85% are hourly team members who serve our OEM customers by producing and distributing products in our RV, marine, MH and industrial end markets, and 15% who are salaried employees who manage the resources, capital allocations, business decisions, and customer relationships of our end markets.
The majority of our team members work in our facilities to produce or distribute products for our customers. Our investment in human capital resources focuses on this environment to ensure their well-being and success. Our primary commitment to our team members in the production environment is to their safety, well-being and progress, and in this regard our human capital management programs focus on the following, in addition to our health care insurance and other employment benefits:
Free assistance programs available to all team members and their families to address mental health and others matters which arise, which we believe are essential during the unique pressures and uncertainties during the COVID-19 pandemic;
Tuition reimbursement programs available to all team members as they pursue educational opportunities;
Leadership programs available to all employees that are designed to foster leadership and communication skills to advance team members to the next stage of their careers;
Job safety analysis, which identifies risks unique to each production environment, training and empowering our team members to mitigate risks and develop workplace best practices;
OSHA preparedness, which involves site specific training development to educate and enable our team members to work safely and effectively;
Industrial hygiene audits and testing, ensuring that our team members work in healthy environments with respect to air quality and noise reduction;
Machine guarding and work area audits, which identify mechanical and non-mechanical improvements in the safety and well-being of the production environment;

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the following factors which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The risks described below are not the only risks we face. Additional factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, cash flows, financial condition or results of operations in future periods.
COVID-19 Risks
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 2020 and 2021 has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created material volatility and disruption in financial markets. The impact of this pandemic has created material uncertainty in the global economy. The impact of COVID-19 on our end markets was experienced primarily in the last two weeks of the first quarter of 2020 and in the first six weeks of the second quarter of 2020 as certain of our OEM customers implemented plant shutdowns in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. While our end markets appear to have resumed business operations that are similar to pre-COVID activities in the second half of 2020, our OEM customers continue to experience labor and supply chain disruptions related to the pandemic. Uncertainties related to the impact of COVID-19 could in the future have a material adverse effect on our business, employees, suppliers, OEM customers and our end markets in general. 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 material 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 material 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.
Material 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
13



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 material 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 material financial difficulties, they may be unable to pay amounts due to us fully, partially, or timely. Further, we may have to negotiate material 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, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be materially and adversely affected.
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 2021 and beyond.

Risks Related to our Business

Economic and business conditions beyond Patrick's control, including cyclicality and seasonality in the industries it sells products, could lead to fluctuations in and negatively impact operating results.

The RV, MH, marine and industrial markets in which we operate are subject to cycles of growth and contraction in consumer demand, and volatility in production levels, shipments, sales and operating results, due to external factors such as general economic conditions, consumer confidence, employment rates, financing availability, interest rates, inflation, fuel prices, and other economic conditions affecting consumer demand and discretionary spending. Periods of economic recession and downturns have adversely affected our business and operating results in the past, and have potential to adversely impact our future results. Consequently, the results for any prior period may not be indicative of results for any future period. In addition, fluctuation in demand could adversely affect our
14



management of inventory, which could lead to an inability to meet customer needs or a charge for obsolete inventory.
Manufacturing 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 second 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 and marine open houses in the December-February timeframe, resulting in dealers delaying certain restocking purchases until new product lines are introduced at these shows. In addition, recent seasonal industry trends have been, and future trends may be, different than in prior years due to the impact of COVID-19, volatile economic conditions, interest rates, access to financing, cost of fuel, national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and marine units and other products for which the Company sells its components, as well as fluctuations in RV and marine dealer inventories, increased volatility in demand from RV and marine dealers, the timing of dealer orders, and from time to time, the impact of severe weather conditions on the timing of industry-wide wholesale shipments.
If the financial condition of our customers and suppliers deteriorates, our business and operating results could suffer.
The markets we serve have been highly sensitive to changes in the economic environment. Weakening conditions in the economy, or the lack of available financing in the credit market, could cause the financial condition of our customers and suppliers to deteriorate, which could negatively affect our business through the loss of sales or the inability to meet our commitments. Many of our customers participate in highly competitive markets and their financial condition may deteriorate as a result. In addition, a decline in the financial condition of our customers could hinder our ability to collect amounts owed by customers.
Our sales are materially concentrated with two customers, the loss of either of which could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.
Two customers in the RV market accounted for a combined 39% of our consolidated net sales in 2020. The loss of either of these customers could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition. We do not have long-term agreements with our customers and cannot predict that we will maintain our current relationships with these customers or that we will continue to supply them at current levels.
Changes in consumer preferences relating to our products could adversely impact our sales levels and our operating results.
Changes in consumer preferences, or our inability to anticipate changes in consumer preferences for RVs, marine models or manufactured homes, or for the products we make could reduce demand for our products and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.
A material percentage of the Company’s sales are concentrated in the RV industry, and declines in the level of RV unit shipments or reductions in industry growth could reduce demand for our products and adversely impact our operating results and financial condition.
In 2020 and 2019, the Company's net sales to the RV industry were approximately 56% and 55%, respectively, of consolidated net sales. While the Company measures its RV segment sales against industry-wide wholesale shipment statistics, the underlying health of the RV industry is determined by retail demand. Retail sales of RVs historically have been closely tied to general economic conditions and consumer confidence, which experienced substantial volatility in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Declines in RV unit shipment levels or reductions in industry growth could materially reduce the Company’s revenue from the RV industry and have a material adverse impact on its operating results in 2021 and other future periods.

The RV, MH, marine and industrial industries are highly competitive and some of our competitors may have greater resources than we do.
We operate in a highly competitive business environment and our sales could be negatively impacted by our inability to maintain or increase prices, changes in regional demand or product mix, or the decision of our customers to purchase our competitors’ products or to produce in-house products that we currently produce. We compete not only with other suppliers to the RV, MH, marine and industrial producers, but also with suppliers to traditional site-built homebuilders and suppliers of cabinetry and countertops. Sales could also be affected by pricing, purchasing, financing, advertising, operational, promotional, or other decisions made by purchasers of our products. Additionally, we cannot control the decisions made by suppliers of our distributed and manufactured products and therefore, our ability to maintain our distribution arrangements may be adversely impacted.
Some of our competitors have greater financial resources or lower levels of debt or financial leverage and this may enable them to commit larger amounts of capital in response to changing market conditions. Further, competitors may develop innovative new products that could put the Company at a competitive disadvantage. If we are unable to compete successfully against other manufacturers and suppliers to the RV, marine and MH industries as well as to the industrial markets we serve, we could lose customers and sales could decline, or we may not be able to improve or maintain profit margins on sales to customers or be able to continue to compete successfully in our core markets.
Conditions in the credit market could limit the ability of consumers and wholesale customers to obtain retail and wholesale financing for RVs, manufactured homes, and marine products, resulting in reduced demand for our products.
Restrictions on the availability of consumer and wholesale financing for RVs, manufactured homes and marine products and increases in the costs of such financing have in the past limited, and could again limit, the ability of consumers and wholesale customers to purchase such products, which would result in reduced production by our customers, and therefore reduce demand for our products.
Loans used to finance the purchase of manufactured homes usually have shorter terms and higher interest rates, and are more difficult to obtain, than mortgages for site-built homes. Historically, lenders required a higher down payment, higher credit scores and other criteria for these loans. Current lending criteria are more stringent than historical criteria, and many potential buyers of manufactured homes may not qualify.
The availability, cost, and terms of these manufactured housing loans are also dependent on economic conditions, lending practices of financial institutions, government policies, and other factors, all of which are beyond our control. Reductions in the availability of financing for manufactured homes and increases in the costs of this financing have limited, and could continue to limit, the ability of consumers and wholesale customers to purchase manufactured homes, resulting in reduced production of manufactured homes by our customers, and therefore reduced demand for our products. In addition, certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act, which regulate financial transactions, could make certain types of loans more difficult to obtain, including those historically used to finance the purchase of manufactured homes.
The manufactured housing industry has experienced a material long-term decline in shipments, which has led to reduced demand for our products.
The MH industry, which accounted for 17% and 19% of the Company's consolidated net sales for 2020 and 2019, respectively, has experienced a material decline in production of new homes compared to the last peak production level in 1998. The downturn was caused, in part, by limited availability and high cost of financing for manufactured homes and was exacerbated by economic and political conditions during the 2008 financial crisis. Although industry-wide wholesale production of manufactured homes has improved somewhat in recent years, annual production remains well below historical averages and a worsening of conditions in the MH market could have a material adverse impact on our operating results.
16



Fuel shortages or high prices for fuel could have an adverse impact on our operations.
The products produced by the RV and marine industries typically require gasoline or diesel fuel for their operation, or the use of a vehicle requiring gasoline or diesel fuel for their operation. There can be no assurance that the supply of gasoline and diesel fuel will continue uninterrupted or that the price or tax on fuel will not materially increase in the future. Shortages of gasoline and diesel fuel, and substantial increases in the price of fuel, have had a material adverse effect on our business and the RV and marine industries as a whole in the past and could have a material adverse effect on our business in the future.
If we cannot effectively manage the challenges and risks associated with doing business internationally, our revenues and profitability may suffer.
We purchase a material portion of our raw materials and other supplies from suppliers located in Indonesia, China, Malaysia and Canada. As a result, our ability to obtain raw materials and supplies on favorable terms and in a timely fashion are subject to a variety of risks, including fluctuations in foreign currencies, changes in the economic strength of the foreign countries in which we do business, difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations and intellectual property rights, compliance burdens associated with a wide variety of international and U.S. import laws, and social, political, and economic instability. Our business with our international suppliers could be adversely affected by restrictions on travel to and from any of the countries in which we do business due to a health epidemic or outbreak, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, or other event. Additional risks associated with our foreign business include restrictive trade policies, imposition of duties, taxes, or government royalties by foreign governments, and compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and local anti-bribery laws. Any measures, or proposals to implement such measures, could negatively impact our relations with our international suppliers and the volume of shipments to the U.S. from these countries, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business and operating results. We maintain limited operations in Canada, the Netherlands and China but are nevertheless exposed to risks of operating in those countries associated with: (i) the difficulties and costs of complying with a wide variety of complex laws, treaties and regulations; (ii) unexpected changes in political or regulatory environments; (iii) earnings and cash flows that may be subject to tax withholding requirements or the imposition of tariffs, exchange controls, or other restrictions; (iv) political, economic, and social instability; (v) import and export restrictions and other trade barriers; (vi) responding to disruptions in existing trade agreements or increased trade tensions between countries or political or economic unions; (vii) maintaining overseas subsidiaries and managing international operations; and (viii) fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
We are dependent on third-party suppliers and manufacturers and any increased cost and limited availability of certain raw materials may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
Prices of certain materials, including gypsum, lauan, particleboard, MDF, aluminum and other commodity products, can be volatile and change dramatically with changes in supply and demand. Certain products are purchased from overseas and their availability is dependent upon weather conditions, seasonal and religious holidays, political unrest, economic conditions overseas, tariffs or other cross-border taxes, natural disasters, vessel shipping schedules and port availability. Further, our commodity product suppliers sometimes operate at or near capacity, resulting in some products having the potential of being put on allocation. We generally have been able to maintain adequate supplies of materials and to pass higher material costs on to our customers in the form of surcharges and base price increases where needed. However, it is not certain future price increases can be passed on to our customers without affecting demand or that limited availability of materials will not impact our production capabilities. Our sales levels and operating results could be negatively impacted by changes in any of these items.
Generally, our raw materials, supplies and energy requirements are obtained from various sources and in the quantities desired. While alternative sources are available, our business is subject to the risk of price increases and periodic delays in delivery. Fluctuations in prices may be driven by the supply/demand relationship for that commodity, governmental regulation, tariffs or other cross-border taxes, economic conditions in other countries, religious holidays, natural disasters, and other events. In addition, if any of our suppliers seek bankruptcy relief or otherwise cannot continue their business as anticipated, the availability or price of these requirements could be adversely affected.
17



If we are unable to manage our inventory, our operating results could be materially and adversely affected.
We generally do not have long-term supply contracts with our customers and, therefore, we must bear the risk of certain inventory commitments, based on our projections of future customer orders. We maintain an inventory to support these customers’ needs. Changes in demand, market conditions and/or product specifications could result in material obsolescence and a lack of alternative markets for certain of our customer specific products and could negatively impact operating results.
We could incur charges for impairment of assets, including goodwill and other long-lived assets, due to potential declines in the fair value of those assets or a decline in expected profitability of the Company or individual reporting units of the Company.
Approximately 70% of our total assets as of December 31, 2020 were comprised of goodwill, intangible assets, operating lease right-of-use assets and property, plant and equipment. Under generally accepted accounting principles, each of these assets is subject to periodic review and testing to determine whether the asset is recoverable or realizable. The events or changes that could require us to test these assets for impairment include changes in our estimated future cash flows, changes in rates of growth in our industry or in any of our businesses, and decreases in our stock price and market capitalization.
In the future, if sales demand or market conditions change from those projected by management, asset write-downs may be required. Material impairment charges, although not always affecting current cash flow, could have a material effect on our operating results and financial position.
Increases in demand for our products could make it more difficult for us to obtain additional skilled labor, which may adversely impact our operating efficiencies.
In certain geographic regions in which we have operating facilities, we have experienced shortages of qualified employees in the past, which negatively impacted our costs. While we are taking certain steps to automate aspects of our production and distribution, labor shortages and continued competition for qualified employees may increase the cost of our labor and create employee retention and recruitment challenges, especially during improving economic times, as employees with knowledge and experience have the ability to change employers more easily.
If demand for employees continues to increase, we may not be able to increase production to timely satisfy demand, and may initially incur higher labor and production costs, which could adversely impact our financial condition and operating results.
We may incur material charges or be adversely impacted by the consolidation and/or closure of all or part of a manufacturing or distribution facility.
We periodically assess the cost structure of our operating facilities to distribute and/or manufacture products in the most efficient manner. We may make capital investments to move, discontinue manufacturing and/or distribution capabilities, or products and product lines, sell or close all or part of additional manufacturing and/or distribution facilities in the future. These changes could result in material future charges or disruptions in our operations, and we may not achieve the expected benefits from these changes, which could result in an adverse impact on our operating results, cash flows, and financial condition.
We are subject to governmental and environmental regulations, and failure in our compliance efforts, changes to such laws and regulations or events beyond our control could result in damages, expenses or liabilities that individually, or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Some of our manufacturing processes involve the use, handling, storage and contracting for recycling or disposal of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes. Accordingly, we are subject to various governmental and environmental laws and regulations regarding these substances, as well as environmental requirements relating to air, water and
18



noise pollution. The implementation of new laws and regulations or amendments to existing regulations could materially increase the cost of the Company’s products. We cannot presently determine what, if any, legislation may be adopted by federal, state or local governing bodies, or the effect any such legislation may have on our customers or us. Failure to comply with present or future regulations could result in fines or potential civil or criminal liability. Both scenarios could negatively impact our results of operations or financial condition.
We are subject to federal, state, local and certain international tax regulation. Changes thereto can have impacts on taxes paid, exposure to liabilities, and financial results of the Company.
While we seek to ensure the Company remains compliant with tax regulations in all jurisdictions in which we operate, new legislation or changes in existing legislation may result in changes to amounts owed for income, personal and real property taxes. These changes may negatively affect our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows or increase the Company's effective tax rate.
We are also subject to the examination of our tax returns and other tax matters by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, states in which we conduct business, and other tax authorities. If our effective tax rates were to increase, or if the ultimate determination of our taxes owed is for an amount in excess of amounts previously accrued, our financial condition, operating results and cash flows could be adversely affected.
The inability to attract and retain qualified executive officers and key personnel may adversely affect our operations.
While we include succession planning as part of our ongoing talent development and management process to help ensure the continuity of our business model, the loss of any of our executive officers or other key personnel could reduce our ability to manage our business and strategic plan in the short-term and could cause our sales and operating results to decline. In addition, our future success will depend on, among other factors, our ability to attract and retain executive management, key employees, and other qualified personnel.
Our ability to integrate acquired businesses may adversely affect operations.
As part of our business and strategic plan, we look for strategic acquisitions to provide shareholder value. Any acquisition will require the effective integration of an existing business and certain of its administrative, financial, sales and marketing, manufacturing, distribution and other functions to maximize synergies. Acquired businesses involve a number of risks that may affect our financial performance, including increased leverage, diversion of management resources, assumption of liabilities of the acquired businesses, financial reporting systems which do not integrate with the Company's existing financial reporting systems and possible corporate culture conflicts. If we are unable to successfully integrate these acquisitions, we may not realize the benefits identified in our due diligence process, and our financial results may be negatively impacted. Additionally, material unexpected liabilities could arise from these acquisitions.
Risks Related to Indebtedness
Our level of indebtedness could limit our operational flexibility and harm our financial condition and results of operations.
As of December 31, 2020, we had $840.0 million of total long-term debt, including current maturities and exclusive of deferred financing costs and debt discount, outstanding under our 2019 Credit Facility, Senior Notes and Convertible Senior Notes (all as defined herein).
Our level of indebtedness could have adverse consequences on our future operations, including making it more difficult for us to meet our payments on outstanding debt, and we may not be able to find alternative financing sources to replace our indebtedness in such an event. Our level of indebtedness could: (i) reduce the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes, and limit our ability to obtain additional financing for these purposes; (ii) limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting
19



to, and increase our vulnerability to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; (iii) place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt or are less leveraged; and (iv) create concerns about our credit quality which could result in the loss of supplier contracts and/or customers. Our ability to satisfy our debt obligations will depend on our future operating performance which may be affected by factors beyond our control.
Our 2019 Credit Agreement contains various financial performance and other covenants. If we do not remain in compliance with these covenants, our 2019 Credit Agreement could be terminated and the amounts outstanding thereunder could become immediately due and payable.
The agreements governing our indebtedness contain financial and non-financial covenants with which we must comply that place restrictions on us. There can be no assurance that we will maintain compliance with the financial covenants under our 2019 Credit Agreement (as defined herein). These covenants require that we comply with a maximum level of a consolidated total leverage ratio and a minimum level of a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (both covenants as described in Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). If we fail to comply with the covenants contained in our 2019 Credit Agreement, the lenders could cause our debt to become due and payable prior to maturity or it could result in our having to refinance the indebtedness under unfavorable terms. If our debt were accelerated, our assets might not be sufficient to repay our debt in full and there can be no assurance that we would be able to refinance any or all of this indebtedness.

Due to industry conditions and our operating results, there have been times in the past when we have had limited access to sources of capital. If we are unable to locate suitable sources of capital when needed, we may be unable to maintain or expand our business.
We depend on our cash balances, our cash flows from operations, and our 2019 Credit Facility to finance our operating requirements, capital expenditures and other needs. If a material economic recession occurred, such as the recession that impacted the economy in 2007-2010, production of RVs, marine units and manufactured homes could decline materially, resulting in reduced demand for our products. A decline in our operating results could negatively impact our liquidity. If our cash balances, cash flows from operations, and availability under our 2019 Credit Facility are insufficient to finance our operations and alternative capital is not available, we may not be able to expand our business and make acquisitions, or we may need to curtail or limit our existing operations.
We have letters of credit representing collateral for our casualty insurance programs and for general operating purposes that have been issued under our 2019 Credit Agreement. The inability to retain our current letters of credit, to obtain alternative letter of credit sources, or to retain our 2019 Credit Agreement to support these programs could require us to post cash collateral, reduce the amount of cash available for our operations, or cause us to curtail or limit existing operations.
The conditional conversion feature of the Convertible Notes that we issued in January 2018, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
In the event the conditional conversion feature of the Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the "Convertible Notes") is triggered, holders of Convertible Notes will be entitled to convert the Convertible Notes at any time during specified periods at their option. If one or more holders elect to convert their Convertible Notes, unless we elect to satisfy our conversion obligation by delivering solely shares of our common stock (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share), we would be required to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation through the payment of cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, even if holders do not elect to convert their Convertible Notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the Convertible Notes as a current rather than long-term liability. See Notes 8 and 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details.

20



The convertible note hedge and warrant transactions may affect the value of the Convertible Notes and our common stock.
In connection with the pricing of the Convertible Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions with certain of the initial purchasers and/or their respective affiliates (the “option counterparties”). At the same time, we entered into warrant transactions with the option counterparties. The convertible note hedge transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution upon conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes, as the case may be. However, the warrant transactions could separately have a dilutive effect on our common stock to the extent that the market price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants.
In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Convertible Notes and prior to the maturity of the Convertible Notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period related to a conversion of Convertible Notes). This activity could cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of our common stock or the Convertible Notes, which could affect a holder's ability to convert the Convertible Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of Convertible Notes, it could affect the number of shares and value of the consideration that a holder will receive upon conversion of the Convertible Notes.
Risks Related to Ownership of our Common Stock
A variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, could influence fluctuations in the market price for our common stock.
The stock market, in general, experiences volatility that has often been unrelated to the underlying operating performance of companies. If this volatility continues, the trading price of our common stock could decline materially, independent of our actual operating performance. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate materially in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:
variations in our, our customers' and our competitors’ operating results;
high concentration of shares held by institutional investors;
announcements by us or our competitors of material contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
announcements by us or our competitors of technological improvements or new products;
the gain or loss of material customers;
additions or departures of key personnel;
events affecting other companies that the market deems comparable to us;
changes in investor perception of our business and/or management;
changes in global economic conditions or general market conditions in the industries in which we operate;
sales of our common stock held by certain equity investors or members of management;
issuance of our common stock or debt securities by the Company; and
the occurrence of other events that are described in these risk factors.
21



Risks Related to Information Security, Cybersecurity and Data Privacy
If our information technology systems fail to perform adequately, our operations could be disrupted and could adversely affect our business, reputation and results of operations.
We are increasingly dependent on digital technology, including information systems and related infrastructure, to process and record financial and operating data, manage inventory and communicate with our employees and business partners. We rely on our information technology systems to effectively manage our business data, inventory, supply chain, order entry and fulfillment, manufacturing, distribution, warranty administration, invoicing, collection of payments, and other business processes. Our systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages, telecommunications or internet failures, computer viruses and malicious attacks, security breaches and catastrophic events. If our systems are damaged or fail to function properly or reliably, we may incur substantial repair or replacement costs or experience data loss or theft and impediments to our ability to manage our business, which could adversely affect our results of operations. Any such events could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability or penalties under privacy laws, disruption in operations, and damage to our reputation, which could adversely affect our business.
In addition, we may be required to make material technology investments to maintain and update our existing information technology systems. Implementing material system changes increases the risk of computer system disruption. The potential problems and interruptions associated with implementing technology initiatives could disrupt or reduce our operational efficiency.
A cyber incident or data breach could result in information theft, data corruption, operational disruption, and/or financial loss.
Our technologies, systems, networks, and those of our business partners have in the past been, and may in the future become, the target of cyber-attacks or information security breaches that could result in the unauthorized release, gathering, monitoring, misuse, loss, or destruction of proprietary and other information, or other disruption of our business operations. A cyber-attack could include gaining unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption or destruction due to ransom attacks or malware or result in denial of service on websites. We have programs in place to detect, contain and respond to data security incidents. However, because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently and may be difficult to detect for long periods of time, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or implement adequate preventive measures. Unauthorized parties may also attempt to gain access to our systems or facilities, or those of third parties with whom we do business, through fraud, trickery, or other forms of deceiving our team members, contractors, vendors, and temporary staff. In addition, hardware, software, or applications we develop or procure from third parties may contain defects in design or manufacture or other problems that could unexpectedly compromise information security. Any cyber-attack on our business could materially harm our business and operating results. The Company currently carries insurance to cover exposure to this type of incident, but this coverage may not be sufficient to cover all potential losses. As cyber threats continue to evolve, we may be required to expend material additional resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures or to investigate and remediate any information security vulnerabilities. If we or our suppliers experience additional material data security breaches or fail to detect and appropriately respond to material data security breaches, we could be exposed to costly government enforcement actions and private litigation and our business and operating results could suffer.
Other Risks
Certain provisions in our Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws may delay, defer or prevent a change in control that our shareholders might consider to be in their best interest.
Our Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws contain provisions that are intended to deter coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions may delay, defer or prevent a change in control that our shareholders might consider to be in their best interest.
22



Conditions within the insurance markets could impact our ability to negotiate favorable terms and conditions for various liability coverage and could potentially result in uninsured losses.
We generally negotiate our insurance contracts annually for property, casualty, workers compensation, general liability, health insurance, and directors and officers liability coverage. Due to conditions within these insurance markets and other factors beyond our control, future coverage limits, terms and conditions and the amount of the related premiums could have a negative impact on our operating results. While we continually measure the risk/reward of policy limits and coverage, the lack of coverage in certain circumstances could result in potential uninsured losses.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Overview of Markets and Related Industry Performance
Recreational Vehicle ("RV") Industry 
The RV industry is our primary market and comprised 56% of the Company’s consolidated net sales in 2020. Sales from the RV industry increased 8% in 2020 compared to 2019. This increase in sales occurred despite an approximate 6-week operations shutdown in the late first quarter and early second quarter of 2020 in certain of our RV facilities in alignment with production shutdowns by certain OEM customers in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the second half of 2020, OEM production improved sharply in response to a strong increase in retail and wholesale demand for RVs, and our sales to RV OEMs also improved.
26




According to the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (“RVIA”), wholesale industry shipments totaled 430,000 units in 2020, an increase of 6% compared to 406,000 units in 2019. RV industry retail unit sales increased 12% in 2020 according to Statistical Surveys, Inc ("SSI"), outpacing wholesale industry unit shipments. As a result, RV industry dealer inventories, which were already at historically low levels entering 2020, declined by more than 80,000 units in 2020, resulting in dealer inventories at their lowest levels in the last decade.
Marine Industry
Sales to the marine industry, which represented approximately 14% of the Company's consolidated net sales in 2020, increased 3% in 2020 compared to 2019. Our marine revenue is generally correlated to marine wholesale powerboat unit shipments, which were impacted by marine OEM COVID-19 production shutdowns late in the first quarter and early in the second quarter of 2020. While marine wholesale powerboat unit shipments began to improve in the second half of 2020, total 2020 marine wholesale powerboat unit shipments decreased an estimated 14% according to the National Marine Manufacturers Association. At the same time, marine retail powerboat shipments increased 15% for 2020, benefiting from increased demand for powerboats, resulting in marine dealer inventory levels that are at their lowest since 2014 as retail sales outpaced marine wholesale unit shipments in 2020.

Manufactured Housing ("MH") Industry
Sales to the MH industry, which represented 17% of the Company’s consolidated sales in 2020, decreased 1% in 2020 compared to 2019. MH sales are correlated to MH industry wholesale unit shipments, which were impacted by temporary MH OEM production shutdowns as a result of COVID-19 in the late first quarter and early second quarter of 2020, slowly recovering in the second half of 2020 as MH OEMs worked through labor and supply constraints. Based on industry data from the Manufactured Housing Institute, MH wholesale industry unit shipments were flat in 2020.
Industrial Market
The industrial market is comprised primarily of the kitchen cabinet industry, high-rise, hospitality, retail and commercial fixtures market, office and household furniture market and regional distributors. Sales to this market represented 13% of our consolidated net sales in 2020, increasing 14% in 2020 compared to 2019. 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 new housing starts increased 7% in 2020 compared to 2019, with single family housing starts increasing 12% and multifamily residential starts decreasing 3% for the same period. Our industrial products are generally among the last components installed in new unit construction and as such our related sales typically trail new housing starts by four to six months.

Year Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to 2019
Net Sales. Net sales in 2020 increased approximately $149.5 million, or 6%, to $2.49 billion from $2.34 billion in 2019. The increase was attributable to an 8% increase in sales from the RV industry, a 14% increase in the Company’s sales from the industrial markets and a 3% increase in sales from the marine industry, partially offset by a 1% decrease in sales from the MH industry.
In 2020 and 2019, net sales attributable to acquisitions completed in each of those years was $81.9 million and $8.3 million, respectively.
The Company’s RV content per wholesale unit for 2020 increased 2% to $3,235 from $3,170 in 2019. Marine powerboat content per wholesale unit for 2020 increased 24% to an estimated $2,098 from $1,696 in 2019. MH content per wholesale unit for 2020 decreased 1% to $4,580 in 2020 from $4,616 in 2019.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased $113.4 million, or 6%, to $2.03 billion in 2020 from $1.91 billion in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased during 2020 to 81.5% from 81.9% in 2019.    
The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales is attributed to certain fixed overhead components against the overall increase in net sales in 2020, partially offset by an increase in labor as an overall percentage of net sales. In general, the Company's cost of goods sold percentage can be impacted by demand changes in certain market sectors that can result in fluctuating costs of certain raw materials and commodity-based components that are utilized in the production of our products.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $36.1 million or 9%, to $459.0 million in 2020 from $422.9 million in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 18.5% in 2020 from 18.1% in 2019. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in 2020 compared to 2019 reflects the impact of the factors discussed above under “Cost of Goods Sold”.
Economic or industry-wide factors affecting the profitability of our RV, MH, marine and industrial businesses include the costs of commodities and the labor used to manufacture our products, the competitive environment and the impact of different gross margin profiles of acquired companies, all of which can cause gross margins to fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year.
28



Warehouse and Delivery Expenses. Warehouse and delivery expenses increased $0.3 million, or 0.4%, to $98.4 million in 2020 from $98.1 million in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, warehouse and delivery expenses were 4.0% in 2020 and 4.2% in 2019. The decrease as a percentage of net sales in 2020 compared to 2019 was primarily attributable to the lower proportion of MH industry net sales in 2020 compared to 2019, which have higher warehousing and delivery costs as a percentage of net sales.
Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") Expenses. SG&A expenses increased $11.9 million, or 9%, to $146.4 million in 2020 from $134.5 million in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 5.9% in 2020 and 5.8% in 2019. The increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in 2020 is primarily due to an expansion of general and administrative resources to support end market demand.
Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets increased $5.0 million, or 13.8%, in 2020 compared to 2019. The increase in 2020 compared to 2019 primarily reflects the impact of an increase in intangible assets from businesses acquired in 2019 and 2020.
Operating Income. Operating income increased $19.0 million, or 12%, to $173.4 million in 2020 from $154.4 million in 2019. Operating income in 2020 and 2019 included $10.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively, from the businesses acquired in each year. Operating income as a percentage of net sales was 7.0% in 2020 and 6.6% in 2019. The increase in operating income is primarily attributable to the items discussed above as well as the operating margin profiles of businesses acquired in 2020.
Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net, increased $6.4 million, or 17%, to $43.0 million in 2020 from $36.6 million in 2019. The increase in net interest expense reflects increased borrowings related to 2020 acquisitions, partly offset by decreases in the average interest rate on the variable rate portion of the Company's debt, which reflects a lower weighted average LIBOR in 2020 compared to 2019.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense increased $5.0 million, or 18%, to $33.3 million in 2020 from $28.3 million in 2019. For 2020, the effective tax rate was 25.6% compared to 24.0% in 2019. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2020 was mostly attributable to a change in the mix of state taxes and decreased benefits from stock-based compensation.

See our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for a discussion of our consolidated operating results for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to 2018.
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 industry volume metrics. 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. 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.
BUSINESS SEGMENTS
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 net sales and operating income. The Company does not measure profitability at the end market (RV, marine, MH and industrial) level.
Manufacturing – This segment includes the following products: laminated products that are utilized to produce furniture, shelving, walls, countertops and cabinet products; cabinet doors; fiberglass bath fixtures
29



and tile systems; hardwood furniture; vinyl printing; decorative vinyl and paper laminated panels; solid surface, granite, and quartz countertop fabrication; RV painting; fabricated aluminum products; fiberglass and plastic components; fiberglass bath fixtures and tile systems; softwoods lumber; custom cabinetry; polymer-based flooring; electrical systems components including instrument and dash panels; wrapped vinyl, paper and hardwood profile mouldings; interior passage doors; air handling products; slide-out trim and fascia; thermoformed shower surrounds; specialty bath and closet building products; fiberglass and plastic helm systems and components products; treated, untreated and laminated plywood; wiring and wire harnesses; boat covers, towers, tops and frames; marine hardware; aluminum and plastic fuel tanks; CNC molds and composite parts; slotwall panels and components; and other products.
Distribution – The Company distributes pre-finished wall and ceiling panels; drywall and drywall finishing products; electronics and audio systems components; appliances; wiring, electrical and plumbing products; fiber reinforced polyester products; cement siding; raw and processed lumber; interior passage doors; roofing products; laminate and ceramic flooring; tile; shower doors; furniture; fireplaces and surrounds; interior and exterior lighting products; and other miscellaneous products in addition to providing transportation and logistics services.

Year Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to 2019
Manufacturing 
Net Sales. Sales increased $92.3 million, or 6%, to $1.77 billion from $1.67 billion in 2019. This segment accounted for approximately 70% of the Company’s consolidated net sales in 2020 and 2019. The sales increase reflected increased net sales across all of our end markets.
In 2020 and 2019, net sales attributable to acquisitions completed in each of those periods was $52.5 million and $8.3 million, respectively.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $17.5 million, or 6%, to $324.9 million in 2020 from $307.4 million in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was 18.4% in 2020 and 2019.
30



Operating Income. Operating income increased $15.6 million, or 9%, to $190.5 million in 2020 from $174.9 million in 2019. Operating income attributable to acquisitions completed in 2020 and 2019 was $7.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The increase in operating income primarily reflects the increase in gross profit mentioned above.
Distribution
Net Sales. Sales increased $63.3 million, or 9%, to $762.5 million in 2020 from $699.2 million in 2019. This segment accounted for approximately 30% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for 2020 and 2019. The increase in net sales in 2020 is primarily attributed to an increase in RV, industrial and marine end market net sales, partially offset by a decrease in net sales to the MH market. Revenue attributable to acquisitions completed in 2020 was $29.4 million.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $22.3 million, or 20%, to $133.3 million in 2020 from $111.0 million in 2019. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was 17.5% in 2020 compared to 15.9% in 2019. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales for 2020 reflected the contribution of increased net sales in our higher margin transportation business and the positive impact of leveraging fixed costs on higher sales volumes in our other distribution businesses.
Operating Income. Operating income in 2020 increased $15.4 million, or 40%, to $54.4 million from $39.0 million in 2019. The businesses acquired in 2020 contributed approximately $3.7 million to operating income in the Distribution segment in 2020. The overall improvement in operating income in 2020 primarily reflects the items discussed above.
Unallocated Corporate Expenses
As presented in Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, unallocated corporate expenses in 2020 increased $7.2 million, or 30%, to $30.7 million from $23.5 million in 2019. The increase in 2020 was mostly attributed to an increase in professional fees, administrative wages and incentive compensation.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES 
The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations, which includes selling its products and collecting receivables, available cash reserves and borrowing capacity available under the 2019 Credit Facility (as defined below). Principal uses of cash are to support working capital demands, meet debt service requirements and support the Company's capital allocation strategy, which includes acquisitions, capital expenditures, dividends and repurchases of the Company’s common stock, among others.
Cash Flows 
Year Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to 2019
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 $32.2 million to $160.2 million in 2020 from $192.4 million in 2019 primarily due to: (i) an increase in cash used by inventories of $54.2 million, which is primarily due to an increase in inventories purchased at year end to support a strong increase in end market demand for our products and (ii) an increase in cash used by trade and other receivables of $35.0 million, primarily due to an increase in year end sales as well as the timing of collection of trade receivables. Partially offsetting the above increase in the use of operating cash flows were: (i) an increase in cash from prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and
31



other of $30.1 million; (ii) an increase in depreciation and amortization of $10.5 million; (iii) an increase in other operating items of $8.8 million and (iv) an increase in net income of $7.5 million.
Investing Activities  
Net cash used in investing activities increased $258.7 million to $337.9 million in 2020 from $79.2 million in 2019 primarily due to (i) an increase in cash used in business acquisitions of $250.0 million; an increase in capital expenditures of $4.4 million and (iii) a decrease in cash provided by proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment and other investing activities of $4.1 million.
Financing Activities 
Net cash flows provided by financing activities increased $63.7 million to $83.0 million in 2020 from $19.3 million in 2019 primarily due to: (i) an increase in net borrowings of $135.0 million in 2020 compared to an increase in net borrowings of $43.9 million in 2019, due primarily to our use of the 2019 Revolver (as defined herein) to fund 2020 business acquisitions and (ii) a decrease in payments of deferred financing, debt issuance, contingent consideration and other of $9.9 million. These increases in cash from financing activities were partially offset by increases in cash paid for dividends and stock repurchases under our buyback program of $37.1 million.
See our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for a discussion of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to 2018.
Summary of Liquidity and Capital Resources 
The Company believes that existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and available borrowings under its 2019 Credit Facility will 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 ability to access unused borrowing capacity under the 2019 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 that established the 2019 Credit Facility (the "2019 Credit Agreement"). In 2020, the Company was in compliance with its financial debt covenants as required under the terms of the 2019 Credit Agreement. The required maximum consolidated total leverage ratio and the required minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio compared to the actual amounts as of December 31, 2020 and for the fiscal year then ended are as follows:  
 RequiredActual
Consolidated total leverage ratio (12-month period)4.50 2.44 
Consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (12-month period)1.50 4.81 
Working capital requirements vary from period to period depending on manufacturing volumes primarily related to the RV, MH and marine industries as well as the industrial markets we serve, 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.

Borrowings under the revolving credit loan (the "2019 Revolver") and the term loan (the "2019 Term Loan" and, together with the 2019 Revolver, the "2019 Credit Facility") established under the 2019 Credit Agreement, which are subject to variable rates of interest, are subject to a maximum total borrowing limit of $650.0 million (effective September 17, 2019). See Note 8 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. See Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on interest rate swaps used to partially hedge variable interest rates under the 2019 Revolver and 2019 Term Loan. The unused availability under the 2019 Credit Facility as of December 31, 2020 was $314.6 million.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as those that are most important to the portrayal of its financial condition and results of operations, and which require the Company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Although management believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, they are based upon information available when they are made. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Other material accounting policies are described in Notes 1, 3 and 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company has identified the following critical accounting policies and estimates:
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The Company’s acquisitions include purchased goodwill and other intangible assets. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Other intangible assets acquired are classified as customer relationships, non-compete agreements, patents and trademarks.
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, representing acquired trademarks, are not amortized but are subject to an annual (or under certain circumstances more frequent) impairment test in the fourth quarter based on their estimated fair value. We test more frequently, if there are indicators of impairment, or whenever such circumstances suggest that the carrying value of goodwill or trademarks may not be recoverable. These indicators include a sustained material decline in our share price and market capitalization, a decline in expected future cash flows, or a material adverse change in the business climate. A material adverse change in the business climate could result in a material loss of market share or the inability to achieve previously projected revenue growth.
Impairment reviews of goodwill are performed at the reporting unit level. The Company’s reporting units are defined as one level below our operating segments, Manufacturing and Distribution, which are the same as our reportable segments. In evaluating goodwill for impairment, either a qualitative or quantitative assessment is performed. If the qualitative assessment indicates it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company performs a quantitative assessment. When estimating reporting unit fair value with the quantitative assessment, the Company uses a combination of market and income-based methodologies. The market approach includes a comparison of multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the reporting units to similar businesses or guideline companies whose securities are actively traded in public markets. When calculating the present value of future cash flows under the income approach, the Company takes into consideration multiple variables, including forecasted sales volumes and operating income, current industry and economic conditions, and historical results. The income approach fair value estimate also includes estimates of long-term growth rates and discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty inherent in the respective reporting units and internally-developed forecasts.
Impairment reviews of indefinite-lived intangible assets (trademarks) consist of a comparison of the fair value of the trademark to its carrying value. Fair value is measured using a relief-from-royalty approach, a form of discounted cash flow method. Estimated royalty rates applied to projected revenues are based on comparable industry studies and consideration of operating margins. Discount rates are derived in a manner similar to what is done in testing goodwill for impairment.

Based on the results of the Company's analyses, the estimated fair value of each of the Company's reporting units and trademarks was determined to exceed the carrying value for each of the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 and so no impairments were recognized. Further, based on the results of the impairment analyses, none of
33



the Company’s reporting units or trademarks were at risk of failing the impairment assessments discussed above that would have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for any period presented.

See Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding immaterial impairments recorded in 2020 unrelated to the annual goodwill and trademark tests.

Finite-lived intangible assets that meet certain criteria continue to be amortized over their useful lives and are also subject to an impairment test based on estimated undiscounted cash flows when impairment indicators exist.

Business Combinations. From time to time, we may enter into business combinations. We recognize the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their fair values as of the date of acquisition. We measure goodwill as the excess of consideration transferred, which we also measure at fair value, over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The acquisition method of accounting requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions regarding the fair values of the elements of a business combination as of the date of acquisition, including the fair values of property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangible assets, contingent consideration and other financial assets and liabilities. Significant estimates and assumptions include subjective and/or complex judgments regarding items such as discount rates, customer attrition rates, royalty rates, economic lives and other factors, including estimated future cash flows that we expect to generate from the acquired assets.
The acquisition method of accounting also requires us to refine these estimates over a measurement period not to exceed one year to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date. If we are required to adjust provisional amounts that we have recorded for the fair values of assets and liabilities in connection with acquisitions, these adjustments could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. No changes in fiscal 2020 to provisional fair value estimates of assets and liabilities assumed in acquisitions were material. If the subsequent actual results and updated projections of the underlying business activity change compared with the assumptions and projections used to develop the acquisition date fair value estimates, we could record future impairment charges. In addition, we estimate the economic lives of certain acquired assets and these lives are used to calculate depreciation and amortization expense. If our estimates of the economic lives change, depreciation or amortization expenses could be increased or decreased, or the acquired assets could be impaired.

ITEM 7A.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Debt Obligations
At December 31, 2020, our total debt obligations under our 2019 Credit Agreement were under LIBOR-based interest rates. A 100 basis point increase in the underlying LIBOR rates would result in additional annual interest cost of approximately $1.7 million, assuming average borrowings, including the Term Loan, subject to variable rates of $167.5 million, which was the amount of such borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2020 subject to variable rates after taking into consideration interest rate swaps with a combined notional principal amount of $200 million.
Inflation
The prices of key raw materials, consisting primarily of lauan, gypsum, particleboard, fiberglass, copper and aluminum, 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 2020. During periods of rising commodity prices, we have generally been able to pass the increased costs to our customers in the form of surcharges and price increases. However, there can be no assurance future cost increases, if any, can be partially or fully passed on to customers, or that the timing of such sales price increases will match raw material cost increases. We do not believe that inflation had a material effect on results of operations for the periods presented.

ITEM 9A.    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 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 Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the fair and reliable preparation and presentation of our published financial statements. We continually evaluate our system of internal control over financial reporting to determine if changes are appropriate based upon changes in our operations or the business environment in which we operate.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in the 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). This assessment included a review of the documentation of controls, an assessment of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls, and a conclusion on this evaluation. As permitted under SEC guidance, management’s
35



assessment of and conclusion regarding the design and effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting excluded the internal control over financial reporting of the operations of businesses acquired in 2020, which are described in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Businesses acquired in 2020 represented less than 3% of consolidated net sales for the year ended December 31, 2020 and approximately 19% of consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2020. Based on our assessment, we have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2020.
The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, audited our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, as stated in their report in the section entitled “Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” included elsewhere in this Form 10-K, which expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2020 or subsequent to the date the Company completed its evaluation, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Patrick Industries, Inc.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Patrick Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows, for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. As described in Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at the operations of businesses acquired in 2020, which are described in Note 4, whose financial statements constitute less than 3% of consolidated net sales for the year ended December 31, 2020 and approximately 19% of consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2020. Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at these businesses.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.    
Goodwill-Refer to Notes 1 and 7 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company’s evaluation of goodwill for impairment involves the comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company uses a combination of market and income-based methodologies. The market approach includes a comparison of multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the reporting units to similar businesses or guideline companies whose securities are actively traded in public markets. When calculating the present value of future cash flows under the income approach, the Company takes into consideration multiple variables, including forecasted sales volumes and operating income, current industry and economic conditions, and historical results. The income approach fair value estimate also includes estimates of long-term growth rates and discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty inherent in the respective reporting units and the internally-developed forecasts. The goodwill balance was $396 million as of December 31, 2020. The estimated fair value of each of the Company's reporting units was determined to exceed the carrying value for the year ended December 31, 2020, and so no impairment was recognized.
Given the significant judgments made by management to estimate the fair value of certain of the Company’s reporting units, performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions related to selection of the discount rates and forecasts of sales and operating income, specifically due to the sensitivity of the Company’s operations to periods of volatility in the Company’s end customer markets, required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the discount rate and forecasts of sales and operating income used by management to estimate the fair value of certain reporting units included the following, among others:
F-3


We tested the effectiveness of controls over management’s goodwill impairment evaluation, including those over the determination of the fair value of the Company’s reporting units, such as controls related to management’s selection of the discount rates and forecasts of sales and operating income.

We evaluated management’s ability to accurately forecast sales and operating income by comparing actual results to management’s historical forecasts.
We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s sales and operating income assumptions included in the income approach model, and extent to which forecast projection risk had been contemplated in the selection of the discount rates, by comparing the forecasts to historical sales and operating income, the strategic plans communicated to the Board of Directors, and forecasted information included in analyst and industry reports.
With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the valuation methodology and discount rates by testing the source information underlying the determination of the discount rates and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations and developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rates selected by management.

PATRICK INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
Patrick Industries, Inc. (“Patrick” or the “Company”) operations consist of the manufacture and distribution of component products and materials for use primarily by the recreational vehicle (“RV”), marine, manufactured housing (“MH”) and industrial markets for customers throughout the United States and Canada. At December 31, 2020, the Company maintained 141 manufacturing plants and 58 distribution facilities located in 23 states, China, Canada and the Netherlands. Patrick operates in two business segments: Manufacturing and Distribution.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying 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 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Patrick and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In preparation of Patrick’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020, management evaluated all material subsequent events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date of issuance of the Form 10-K to determine those requiring recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
Financial Periods
The Company maintains its financial records on the basis of a fiscal year ending on December 31, with the fiscal quarters spanning thirteen weeks, with the first, second and third quarters ending on the Sunday closest to the end of the first, second and third 13-week periods, respectively. The first three quarters of fiscal year 2020 ended on March 29, 2020, June 28, 2020 and September 27, 2020. The first three quarters of fiscal year 2019 ended on March 31, 2019, June 30, 2019 and September 29, 2019. The first three quarters of fiscal year 2018 ended on April 1, 2018, July 1, 2018 and September 30, 2018.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the 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. Estimates include the valuation of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, the valuation of long-lived assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, excess and obsolete inventories, the valuation of estimated contingent consideration and deferred tax asset valuation allowances. Actual results could differ from the amounts reported.
Revenue Recognition
See Note 3 for further information on our revenue recognition accounting policies.
Costs and Expenses
Cost of goods sold includes material costs, direct and indirect labor, depreciation, overhead expenses, inbound freight charges, inspection costs, internal transfer costs, receiving costs, and other costs.
Warehouse and delivery expenses include salaries and wages, building rent and insurance, and other overhead costs related to distribution operations and delivery costs related to the shipment of finished and distributed products to customers.
F-11


Stock Based Compensation
Compensation expense related to the fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock unit ("RSU") awards as of the grant date is calculated based on the Company’s closing stock price on the date of grant. In addition, the Company estimates the fair value of all stock option and stock appreciation rights (“SARS”) awards as of the grant date by applying the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The use of this valuation model involves assumptions that are judgmental and highly sensitive in the determination of compensation expense, including the expected option term, dividend yield, risk-free interest rate and volatility of the Company's common stock. Expected volatilities take into consideration the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The expected term of options and SARS represents the period of time that the options and SARS granted are expected to be outstanding based on historical Company trends. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for instruments of a similar term. New shares are issued upon exercise of options. Forfeitures of stock based compensation are recognized as incurred.
Net Income Per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, plus the dilutive effect of stock options, SARS, and restricted stock and RSU awards (collectively, “Common Stock Equivalents”). The dilutive effect of Common Stock Equivalents is calculated under the treasury stock method using the average market price for the period. Common Stock Equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted net income per common share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. See Note 14 for the calculation of both basic and diluted net income per common share.
Cash and Cash Equivalents 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Trade and Other Receivables  
Trade receivables consist primarily of amounts due to the Company from its normal business activities. In assessing the carrying value of its trade receivables, the Company estimates the recoverability by making assumptions based on historical and forward-looking factors, such as historical and anticipated customer performance, current overall and industry-specific economic conditions, historical write-off and collection experience, the level of past-due amounts, and specific risks identified in the trade receivables portfolio.
Allowance for doubtful accounts was immaterial at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and changes in the allowance were immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018.
Inventories 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) and net realizable value. Based on the inventory aging and other considerations for realizable value, the Company writes down the carrying value to net realizable value where appropriate. The Company reviews inventory on-hand and records provisions for excess and obsolete inventory based on current assessments of future demand, market conditions, and related management initiatives. The cost of manufactured inventories includes raw materials, inbound freight, labor and overhead. The Company’s distribution inventories include the cost of materials purchased for resale and inbound freight.
F-12


Prepaid Expenses and Other
Prepaid expenses and other consists of the following at December 31, 2020 and 2019:
(thousands)20202019
Vendor rebates receivable $6,527 $11,524 
Income tax receivable 3,895 
Prepaid expenses16,510 7,571 
Deposits14,945 1,409 
Prepaid income taxes 11,639 
Total $37,982 $36,038 
Property, Plant and Equipment 
Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) is generally recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed primarily by the straight-line method applied to individual items based on estimated useful lives, which generally range from 10 to 30 years for buildings and improvements, and from three to seven years for machinery, equipment and transportation equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of their useful lives or the related lease term. The recoverability of PP&E is evaluated whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable, primarily based on estimated selling price, appraised value or projected future cash flows.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets  
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are subject to an annual impairment test based on their estimated fair value. The Company performs the required test for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment in the fourth quarter, or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may exceed the fair value. As part of the annual goodwill test, we estimate the fair value of our reporting units using both an income and market based approach. The market approach includes a comparison of multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the reporting units to similar businesses or guideline companies whose securities are actively traded in public markets. The income approach calculates the present value of expected cash flows to determine the estimated fair value of our reporting units. Additionally, the income approach requires us to estimate future cash flows, the timing of these cash flows, and a discount rate (based on a weighted average cost of capital), which represents the time value of money and the inherent risk and uncertainty of the future cash flows. The assumptions we use to estimate future cash flows are consistent with the assumptions that our reporting units use for internal planning purposes. When calculating the present value of future cash flows under the income approach, we take into consideration multiple variables, including forecasted sales volumes and operating income, current industry and economic conditions, and historical results.
If we determine that the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. Our fourth quarter 2020 goodwill impairment test concluded that the fair values of each of our reporting units exceeded their carrying values. Our fourth quarter indefinite-lived intangibles test also concluded that the fair values of intangibles exceeded their respective carrying values. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives, as detailed further in Note 7, and are also subject to an impairment test based on estimated undiscounted cash flows when impairment indicators exist.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets 
When events or conditions warrant, the Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets other than goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and considers whether these assets are impaired.  The Company assesses the recoverability of these assets based upon several factors, including management's intention with respect
F-13


to the assets and their projected future undiscounted cash flows.  If projected undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Company adjusts the carrying amounts of such assets to their estimated fair value. A significant adverse change in the Company’s business climate in future periods could result in a significant loss of market share or the inability to achieve previously projected revenue growth and could lead to a required assessment of the recoverability of the Company’s long-lived assets, which may subsequently result in an impairment charge.
Fair Value and Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The fair values are separated into three broad levels (Levels 1, 2 and 3) based on the assessment of the availability of observable market data and the significance of non-observable data used to determine fair value. Each fair value measurement must be assigned to a level corresponding to the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels are as follows:
Level 1 inputs, which are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 inputs, which are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (which might include the reporting entity’s own data).

The Company held no Cash Equivalents as of December 31, 2020.
(2) 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, and are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and discussed further in Note 9.
(3) The estimated fair value of the Company's contingent consideration is valued using Level 3 inputs and is discussed further in Note 4.

Income Taxes 
Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method whereby deferred taxes are recognized based on temporary differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets may not be realized.
The Company reports a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Reclassified Amounts
Certain amounts have been reclassified in prior year financial statements to conform with current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on the overall financial information and relate to the following:
Gross versus net presentation of earnings in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) - Note 10
Presentation of discrete items in the Company's income tax rate reconciliation - Note 12

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 standard is effective for annual and any interim impairment tests for periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this ASU 2017-04 on January 1, 2020 and the adoption did not have a material effect on its 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 will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. Additionally, entities will be 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 ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years and will be applied as a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period for which the guidance is effective. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 and the adoption did not have a material effect on its 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. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021 and the adoption is not expected to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

F-15


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 net income per share 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.

3.    REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company is a major manufacturer and distributor of component products and materials serving original equipment manufacturers in the RV, MH, marine, and industrial industries. Revenue is recognized when or as control of the promised goods transfers to the Company's customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. The Company’s contracts typically consist of a single performance obligation to manufacture and provide the promised goods. To the extent a contract is deemed to have multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price of the contract to each performance obligation using the standalone selling price of each distinct good in the contract. The transaction price for contracts may include reductions to the transaction price for estimated volume discounts and rebates and other customer incentives.
Manufacturing segment revenue is recognized when control of the products transfers to the customer which is the point when the customer gains the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all the remaining benefits from the asset, which is generally upon delivery of goods. In limited circumstances, where the products are customer specific with no alternative use to the Company, and the Company has a legally enforceable right to payment for performance to date with a reasonable margin, revenue is recognized over the contract term based on the cost-to-cost method. However, such revenue is not material to the consolidated financial statements.
Distribution segment revenue from product sales is recognized on a gross basis upon shipment or delivery of goods at which point control transfers to the customer. The Company acts as a principal in such arrangements because it controls the promised goods before delivery to the customer. The Company uses direct shipment arrangements with certain vendors and suppliers to deliver products to its customers without having to physically hold the inventory at its warehouses. The Company is the principal in the transaction and recognizes revenue for direct shipment arrangements on a gross basis. Our role as principal in our distribution sales is generally characterized by (i) customers entering into contracts with the Company, not the vendor; (ii) our obligation to pay the vendor
F-16


irrespective of our ability to collect from the customer; (iii) our discretion in determining the price of the good provided to the customer; (iv) our title to the goods before the customer receives or accept the goods; and (v) our responsibility for the quality and condition of goods delivered to the customer.
In the following table, revenue from contracts with customers, net of intersegment sales, is disaggregated by market type and by reportable segment, consistent with how the Company believes the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors:

Sales and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from net sales.
The Company records freight billed to customers in net sales. The corresponding costs incurred for shipping and handling related to these customer billed freight costs are accounted for as costs to fulfill the contract and are included in warehouse and delivery expenses.
The Company’s contracts across each of its businesses typically do not result in situations where there is a time period greater than one year between performance under the contract and collection of the related consideration. The Company does not account for a significant financing component when the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between the Company's transfer of a promised good or service to a customer and the customer’s payment for that good or service will be one year or less.
F-17


The Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the incurred costs that the Company otherwise would have capitalized is one year or less. These costs, representing primarily sales commissions, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The Company does not disclose information about the transaction price being allocated to the remaining performance obligations at period end, as the Company does not have material contracts that have original expected durations of more than one year.
Contract Liabilities
Contract liabilities, representing upfront payments from customers received prior to satisfying performance obligations, were immaterial in all periods presented and changes in contract liabilities were immaterial in all periods presented.

4.    ACQUISITIONS
General
The Company completed the acquisitions discussed below during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. The acquisitions were funded through cash on hand or through borrowings under the Company’s credit facility in existence at the time of acquisition. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the individual acquisitions were recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position at their estimated fair values as of the respective dates of acquisition. For each acquisition, the Company completes its allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities within a one-year measurement period. For those acquisitions where the purchase price allocation is provisional, which includes certain acquisitions completed in 2020, the Company is still in the process of finalizing the fair values of acquired intangible assets and fixed assets. In general, the acquisitions described below provided the opportunity for the Company to either establish a new presence in a particular market and/or expand its product offerings in an existing market and increase its market share and per unit content.
For each acquisition, the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill, which generally represents the combined value of the Company’s existing purchasing, manufacturing, sales, and systems resources with the organizational talent and expertise of the acquired companies’ respective management teams to maximize efficiencies, revenue impact, market share growth and net income.
For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, revenue of approximately $81.9 million, $8.3 million and $249.3 million, respectively, was included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income pertaining to the businesses acquired in each such year.
For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, operating income of approximately $10.7 million, $0.9 million and $23.2 million, respectively, was included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income pertaining to the businesses acquired in each such year. Acquisition-related costs associated with the businesses acquired in 2020, 2019 and 2018 were immaterial in each respective year.
Contingent Consideration
In connection with certain acquisitions, if certain financial targets for the acquired businesses are achieved, the Company is required to pay additional cash consideration. The Company records a liability for the fair value of the contingent consideration related to each of these acquisitions as part of the initial purchase price based on the present value of the expected future cash flows and the probability of future payments at the date of acquisition. The liability for the contingent consideration is measured at fair value in subsequent periods, with the changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of income.

F-18


The aggregate fair value of the contingent consideration as of December 31, 2020 was $6.9 million, $1.6 million of which is included in the line item "Accrued liabilities" and $5.3 million is included in “Other long-term liabilities” on the consolidated statement of financial position. At December 31, 2019, the fair value 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 liability for contingent consideration expires at various dates through December 2023. The contingent consideration arrangements are subject to a maximum payment amount of up to $14.5 million in the aggregate as of December 31, 2020. In 2020, the Company recorded a $4.2 million non-cash decrease to accrued liabilities, which is included within selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of income, partly offset by a $0.2 million non-cash accretion of other long term liabilities, representing changes in the amount of consideration expected to be paid. In 2020, the Company made cash payments of approximately $2.0 million related to contingent consideration liabilities, recording a corresponding reduction to accrued liabilities.
2020 Acquisitions
The Company completed the following seven previously announced acquisitions in the year ended December 31, 2020 (the "2020 Acquisitions"):

Inclusive of four immaterial acquisitions not discussed above, total cash consideration for the 2020 Acquisitions was approximately $307.0 million, plus contingent consideration over a one to three-year period based on future performance in connection with certain acquisitions. One acquisition in 2020 accounted for $129.7 million of cash consideration, $49.3 million of fixed assets, $49.1 million of intangible assets and $32.1 million of goodwill. 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 2020 related to the 2020 Acquisitions were immaterial.

We estimate the value of customer relationships using the multi-period excess earnings method, which is a variation of 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 the 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.

Senior Notes
On September 17, 2019, the Company issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of 7.50% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes will mature on October 15, 2027. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year. The effective interest rate on the Senior Notes, which includes debt issuance costs, is 7.83%. In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, the Company incurred and capitalized as a reduction of the principal amount of the Senior Notes approximately $6 million in deferred financing costs which is amortized using the effective interest rate over the term of the Senior Notes.

The Senior Notes are senior unsecured indebtedness of the Company and are guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantee the obligations of the Company under the 2019 Credit Facility (as defined herein). The Company may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at any time (a) prior to October 15, 2022, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the applicable premium described in the associated indenture and accrued and unpaid interest and (b) on or after October 15, 2022 at specified redemption prices set forth in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, prior to October 15, 2022, the Company may redeem, in one or more transactions, up to an aggregate of 40% of the original principal amount of the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 107.5% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings. If the Company experiences specific kinds of changes of control, the Company must offer to repurchase all of the Senior Notes (unless otherwise redeemed) at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
F-25


2019 Credit Facility
Simultaneously with the issuance of the Senior Notes, the Company entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2019 Credit Agreement”). The 2019 Credit Agreement amended and extended the Company’s 2018 Credit Agreement (as defined herein) and consists of a $550 million senior secured revolver (the “2019 Revolver”) and a $100 million senior secured term loan (the “2019 Term Loan” and together with the 2019 Revolver, the “2019 Credit Facility”). The maturity date for borrowings under the 2019 Credit Agreement 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 2019 Credit Facility by up to $250 million.

Borrowings under the 2019 Credit Facility are secured by substantially all personal property assets of the Company and any domestic subsidiary guarantors. Pursuant to the 2019 Credit Agreement:

The 2019 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 2019 Revolver and the 2019 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, as defined below. The Company is required to pay fees on unused but committed portions of the 2019 Revolver, which range from 0.15% to 0.225%; and

Covenants include requirements as to a maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio (4.00:1.00, increasing to 4.50:1.00 in certain circumstances in connection with Company acquisitions) and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (1.50:1.00) that are tested on a quarterly basis, a minimum liquidity requirement applicable during the six-month period preceding the maturity of the Convertible Notes, and other customary covenants.

At December 31, 2020, the Company had $92.5 million outstanding under the 2019 Term Loan under the LIBOR-based option, and borrowings outstanding under the 2019 Revolver of $275 million under the LIBOR-based option. The interest rate for incremental borrowings at December 31, 2020 was LIBOR plus 1.50% (or 1.68%) for the LIBOR-based option. The fee payable on committed but unused portions of the 2019 Revolver was 0.20% at December 31, 2020. The weighted average interest rate was 4.14% for 2020 borrowings under the 2019 Revolver, and 3.67% for 2020 borrowings under the 2019 Term Loan. The weighted average interest rate was 4.59% for 2019 borrowings under the 2018 Revolver (as defined herein) and 2019 Revolver, and 4.53% for 2019 borrowings under the 2018 Term Loan (as defined herein) and 2019 Term Loan.
2018 Credit Facility
The 2018 Credit Agreement was amended by the 2019 Credit Agreement on September 17, 2019 as discussed above. The Company recorded a $0.7 million loss on extinguishment of debt in the third quarter of 2019 in connection with the replacement of the 2018 Credit Facility (as defined herein) with the 2019 Credit Facility. The Company's previous credit agreement (the "2018 Credit Agreement") consisted of an $800 million revolving credit loan (the “2018 Revolver”) and a $100 million term loan (the “2018 Term Loan” and, together with the 2018 Revolver, the “2018 Credit Facility”).
F-26


Convertible Senior Notes
In January 2018, the Company issued $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of 1.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Convertible Notes”). The total debt discount of $36.0 million at issuance consisted of two components: (i) the conversion option component, recorded to shareholders' equity, in the amount of $31.9 million, representing the difference between the principal amount of the Convertible Notes upon issuance less the present value of the future cash flows of the Convertible Notes and (ii) debt issuance costs of $4.1 million. The unamortized portion of the total debt discount is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Convertible Notes. The effective interest rate on the Convertible Notes, which includes the non-cash interest expense of debt discount amortization and debt issuance costs, was 5.25% as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.
The net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes were approximately $167.5 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company, but before deducting the net cost of the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and the Warrant Transactions (each as defined herein) described in Note 9. The Convertible Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and pay interest semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year at an annual rate of 1.00%. The Convertible Notes will mature on February 1, 2023 unless earlier repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms. The Convertible Notes are convertible by the noteholders, in certain circumstances and subject to certain conditions, into cash, shares of common stock of the Company, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate for the Convertible Notes is 11.3785 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes (or 1,962,790 shares in the aggregate) and is equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $87.89 per share. If an event of default on the Convertible Notes occurs, the principal amount of the Convertible Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including additional interest, if any) may be declared immediately due and payable, subject to certain conditions.
Convertible Notes holders can convert their Convertibles Notes on or after August 1, 2022 at any time at their option. Holders may convert Convertible Notes prior to August 1, 2022, only under the following circumstances: (i) during any calendar quarter, if the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day, (ii) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day and (iii) upon the occurrence of certain specified distributions or corporate events.
Debt Maturities
As of December 31, 2020, the aggregate maturities of total long-term debt for the next five fiscal years and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

9.    DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and Warrant Transactions
In January 2018, in connection with the Convertible Notes offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated convertible note hedge transactions (together, the “Convertible Note Hedge Transactions”) with each of Bank of America, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (together, the “Hedge Counterparties”). Pursuant to the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions, the Company acquired options to purchase the same number of shares of the Company's common stock (or 1,962,790 shares) initially underlying the Convertibles Notes at an initial strike price equal to the initial strike price of the Convertible Notes of approximately $87.89 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The options expire on February 1, 2023, subject to earlier exercise.
At the same time, the Company also entered into separate, privately negotiated warrant transactions (the “Warrant Transactions”) with each of the Hedge Counterparties, pursuant to which the Company sold warrants to purchase the same number of shares of the Company’s common stock (or 1,962,790 shares) underlying the Convertible Notes, at an initial strike price of approximately $113.93 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The warrants have a final expiration date of September 20, 2023.
The Company paid $31.5 million associated with the cost of the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and received proceeds of $18.1 million related to the Warrant Transactions. The Convertible Note Hedge Transactions are expected generally to reduce potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Convertible Notes. However, the Warrant Transactions could separately have a dilutive effect on the Company's common stock to the extent that the market price per share of the common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants.
As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and Warrant Transactions are recorded in stockholders’ equity and are not accounted for as derivatives.
Interest Rate Swaps
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 entered into interest rate swaps. As of December 31, 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 accompanying consolidated balance sheet (in thousands):

The Company has accounted for in its 2020, 2019 and 2018 income tax provision the impact of Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income, base-erosion anti-abuse tax, interest expense limitations under Section 163(j), and foreign-derived intangible income deductions, although such provisions were either not applicable or resulted in a zero or immaterial impact to the consolidated financial statements.
A reconciliation of the differences between the actual provision for income taxes and income taxes at the federal statutory income tax rate of 21% for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 is as follows:

Cash paid by the Company for income taxes was $7.9 million, $36.1 million and $28.2 million in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had gross federal, state, and foreign net operating losses, of approximately $26.2 million and $24.5 million, respectively. These loss carryforwards generally expire between tax years ending December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2037. The components of the valuation allowance relate to certain acquired federal, state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards that the Company anticipates will not be utilized prior to their expiration, either due to income limitations or limitations under Section 382. The tax effected values of these net operating losses are $2.3 million and $2.0 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, exclusive of valuation allowances of $0.8 million and $0.9 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
The Company is subject to periodic audits by domestic tax authorities. For the majority of tax jurisdictions, the U.S. federal statute of limitations remains open for the years 2017 and later. Uncertain tax benefits were immaterial at December 31, 2020 and 2019 and activity related to uncertain tax benefits was immaterial for all periods presented.
13.    STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAMS
In October 2018, the Company's Board of Directors ("the Board") approved an increase in the amount of the Company's common stock that may be acquired over 24 months under the current stock repurchase program to $50.0 million, including amounts remaining under previous authorizations. In March 2020, the Board approved a new stock repurchase program for up to $50.0 million of its common stock, including amounts remaining under previous authorizations. Approximately $36.0 million of common stock repurchases remains available at December
F-31


31, 2020 as part of this authorization. Under the stock repurchase plans, the Company made repurchases of common stock for 2020, 2019 and 2018 as follows:
202020192018
Shares repurchased595,805 102,932 1,984,095 
Average price$38.78 $37.06 $54.21 
Aggregate cost (in millions)$23.1 $3.8 $107.6 
The Company’s common stock does not have a stated par value. As a result, repurchases of common stock have been reflected, using an average cost method, as a reduction of common stock, additional paid-in-capital and retained earnings in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position.

14.    NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Income per common share is calculated for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 as follows:  
(thousands except per share data)202020192018

Cash dividends paid per common share$1.03 $0.25 $ 
The impact on diluted net income per common share from antidilutive securities excluded from the calculation was immaterial for all periods presented.
15.    LEASES
We lease certain facilities, trailers, forklifts and other assets. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and expense related to these short-term leases was immaterial for fiscal 2020 and 2019. Variable lease expense, principally related to trucks, forklifts, and index-related facility rent escalators, was immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. Leases have remaining lease terms of one year to nineteen years. Certain leases include options to renew for an additional term. Where there is reasonable certainty to utilize a renewal option, we include the renewal option in the lease term used to calculate operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

16.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits, audits, and other claims arising in the normal course of business. All such matters are subject to uncertainties and outcomes that are not predictable with assurance. Accruals for these items, when applicable, have been provided to the extent that losses are deemed probable and are reasonably estimable. These accruals are adjusted from time to time as developments warrant.
Although the ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be ascertained, on the basis of present information, amounts already provided, availability of insurance coverage and legal advice received, it is the opinion of management that
F-33


the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, lawsuits, and other claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
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.
17.    COMPENSATION PLANS
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has various stock option and stock-based incentive plans and various agreements whereby stock options, restricted stock awards, and SARS were made available to certain key employees, directors, and others based upon meeting various individual, divisional or company-wide performance criteria and time-based criteria. All such awards qualify and are accounted for as equity awards. Equity incentive plan awards, which are granted under the Company's 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan, are intended to retain and reward key employees for outstanding performance and efforts as they relate to the Company’s short-term and long-term objectives and its strategic plan. At December 31, 2020, approximately one million common shares remain available for stock-based compensation grants.    
Stock-based compensation expense was $16.0 million, $15.4 million and $14.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Income tax benefit for stock-based compensation expense was $4.1 million, $3.9 million and $3.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, there was approximately $23.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation arrangements granted under incentive plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 13.9 months.
Stock Options:
Stock options vest ratably over either three or four years and have nine-year contractual terms.
In 2020, we granted 495,000 stock options to certain employees at an average exercise price per share of $42.87. The stock options vest 35%, 35% and 30% over years one, two, and three, respectively, and have nine-year contractual terms. No stock options were granted in 2019 and 2018.

As of December 31, 2020, there was approximately $17.5 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining life of approximately 13.7 months.
Restricted stock awards possess voting rights, are included in the calculation of actual shares outstanding, and include both performance- and time-based contingencies. The grant date fair value of the awards is expensed over the related service or performance period. Time-based shares cliff vest at the conclusion of the required service period, which ranges from one to three years. The performance contingent shares are earned based on the
F-36


achievement of a cumulative financial performance target, which ranges from a one to five-year period and vest at the conclusion of the measurement period.

18.    SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has two reportable segments, Manufacturing and Distribution, which are based on its method of internal reporting, which segregates its businesses based on the way in which its chief operating decision maker allocates resources, evaluates financial results, and determines compensation.
 
A description of the Company’s reportable segments is as follows:
Manufacturing – This segment includes the following products: laminated products that are utilized to produce furniture, shelving, walls, countertops and cabinet products; cabinet doors; fiberglass bath fixtures and tile systems; hardwood furniture; vinyl printing; decorative vinyl and paper laminated panels; solid surface, granite, and quartz countertop fabrication; RV painting; fabricated aluminum products; fiberglass and plastic components; fiberglass bath fixtures and tile systems; softwoods lumber; treated, untreated and laminated plywood; custom cabinetry; polymer-based flooring; electrical systems components including instrument and dash panels; wrapped vinyl, paper and hardwood profile mouldings; interior passage doors; air handling products; slide-out trim and fascia; thermoformed shower surrounds; specialty bath and closet building products; fiberglass and plastic helm systems and components products; wiring and wire harnesses; boat covers, towers, tops and frames; marine hardware; aluminum and plastic fuel tanks; CNC molds and composite parts; slotwall panels and components; and other products.
