PATRICK INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
 
1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In the opinionThe accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Patrick Industries, Inc. (“Patrick”, the “Company”, "we", "our"), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that we believe are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31,September 29, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018 and cash flows for the threenine months ended March 31,September 29, 2019 and April 1,September 30, 2018.
 
Patrick’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules or regulations. Certain immaterial reclassifications have been made to the prior period presentation to conform to the current period presentation. For a description of significant accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements, please refer to Note 2 of theto Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The December 31, 2018 condensed consolidated statement of financial position data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Operating results for the firstthird quarter and nine months ended March 31,September 29, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2019.

The Company maintains its financial records on the basis of a fiscal year ending on December 31, with the fiscal quarters spanning approximately thirteen weeks. The first quarter ends on the Sunday closest to the end of the first thirteen-week period. The second and third quarters are thirteen weeks in duration and the fourth quarter is the remainder of the year. The third quarter of fiscal year 2019 ended on September 29, 2019 and the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 ended on September 30, 2018.
In preparation of Patrick’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the first quarterthree and nine months ended March 31,September 29, 2019, management evaluated all material subsequent events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date of issuance of the Form 10-Q that required recognition or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Leases
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)", which requires in part that an entity recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on its statement of financial position for leases that were previously classified as operating leases under U.S. GAAP. The standard also requires companies to disclose in the footnotes to the financial statements information about the amount and timing of lease payments. The standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis and early adoption was permitted.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, "Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements", which offered practical expedient alternatives to the modified retrospective adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842. Specifically, the practical expedients allow companies to recognize right of use lease assets and lease liabilities at the date of adoption only, rather than retrospectively for all periods presented, as well as practical expedients related to the presentation of lease components.

The Company adopted ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019, and recorded approximately $80 million in lease right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities, with no material impact on the condensed consolidated statement of shareholders' equity, results of operationsincome, comprehensive income or cash flows. See Note 12 for further information.





Goodwill Impairment
In January 2017, the FASB issued 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 is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting standard, and has not yet determinedwhich will depend on the impact that its implementation will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.outcomes of future goodwill impairment tests.

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 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 havebe 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 does not expect that the adoption of the ASU will have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
3.REVENUE RECOGNITION
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2014-09, "
Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (commonly referred to as “Topic 606”), which requires a company to recognize revenue when it transfers goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that the company expects to receive. The Company adopted Topic 606 using the modified retrospective method and applied it to those contracts which were not completed as of the adoption date. The adoption of the new revenue standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or revenues as of the adoption date.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized when or as control of the promised goods or services 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 or services.

The transaction price for contracts may include forms of variable consideration, including reductions to the transaction price for volume discounts and rebates. 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 or service in the contract.
Disaggregation of Revenue
In the following table, revenue from contracts with customers, net of intersegment sales, is disaggregated by market type and by reportable operating segments:segments, consistent with how the Company believes the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors:

Description of Products and Services
The Company is a major manufacturer of component products and a distributor of building products and materials serving original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”). The following is a description of the principal activities, by reportable segments, from which the Company generates its revenue. See Note 15 for more detailed information about the Company's reportable operating segments.

Manufacturing
The Company’s Manufacturing segment revenue is primarily derived from the sale of 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, 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, wiring and wire harnesses, boat covers, towers, tops and frames, aluminum fuel tanks, CNC molds and composite parts, slotwall panels and components and other products.
Manufacturing segment revenue is recognized when control of the product transfers to the customer which is the point when the customer gains the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of 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. The Company uses this measure of progress because it best depicts the transfer of value to the customer and correlates with the amount of consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods to the customer. However, revenue recognized based on the cost-to-cost method does not constitute a material amount of total Manufacturing segment revenue and consolidated net sales.
Distribution
The Company’s Distribution segment revenue is primarily derived from the resale of 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.

The Company acts as a principal in such arrangements because it controls the promised goods before delivery to the customer. Distribution segment revenue from product sales is recognized on a gross basis upon delivery of goods at which point control transfers to the customer. The Distribution segment also generates revenue by providing marketing services for other manufacturers in exchange for agreed upon commissions. The commission revenue is recognized in the amount of expected commissions to be collected from the manufacturer upon delivery of goods to the customer. The overall commission business is not material to the Company’s consolidated net sales.


Significant Judgments and Practical Expedients Applied
Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Sales and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are not recognized as separate performance obligations to which a portion of revenue would otherwise be allocated.
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 recorded 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 elected the practical expedient under Topic 606 related to significant financing components, where the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between the entity’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.
The Company also applies the practical expedient in Topic 606 related to costs to obtain a contract and 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 are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Contract Balances
The Company typically invoices the customer after shipment of the promised goods, at which time it has an unconditional right to payment. In limited circumstances, the Company may receive upfront payments from customers prior to satisfaction of a performance obligation in both the manufacturing and distribution businesses, in which case a contract liability is recorded. The following table provides information about contract balances:

5.GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The Company acquired goodwill and intangible assets in various acquisitions in 2018 that were determined to be business combinations. No new intangible assets were acquired through business combination in the first quarter of 2019, but purchase accounting adjustments to previously reported estimated amounts were made in such quarter. See Note 6 for further details. Goodwill and intangible assets are allocated to the Company’s reporting units on the date they are initially recorded. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are subject to an impairment test based on their estimated fair value performed annually (or under certain circumstances more frequently as warranted). Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level, one level below the business segment
.
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. The Company assesses finite-lived intangible assets for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may exceed the fair value.
No impairment was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and April 1, 2018, related to goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets or finite-lived intangible assets.

Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are comprised of customer relationships, non-compete agreements, trademarks and patents. Customer relationships and non-compete agreements represent finite-lived intangible assets that have been recorded in the Manufacturing and Distribution segments along with related amortization expense. As of March 31, 2019, the remaining intangible assets balance of $370.2 million is comprised of $85.2 million of trademarks which have an indefinite life, and therefore, no amortization expense has been recorded for trademarks, and $285.0 million pertaining to customer relationships, non-compete agreements and patents which are being amortized over periods ranging from three to 19 years.   

Amortization expense for the Company’s intangible assets in the aggregate was $9.0 million and $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and April 1, 2018, respectively.

6.ACQUISITIONS
 
General 
The Company did not complete anyIn addition to the acquisitions the first quarter of 2019 and completed nine acquisitions in 2018 including fouras discussed below, the Company completed 2 acquisitions in the first nine months of 2019. For the third quarter of 2018. Each of the 2018 acquisitions was funded through borrowings under the Company’s credit facility in effect at the time of acquisition. Assets acquired and liabilities assumedfirst nine months ended September 29, 2019, revenue and operating income included in the individual acquisitions were recorded on the Company’sCompany's condensed 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 priceincome related to the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities within the one year measurement period.  For those2019 acquisitions where the purchase price allocation has been noted as being provisional, the Company generally is still in the process of finalizing the fair values of acquired goodwill, intangible assets, fixed assets, and, if applicable, related deferred tax assets and liabilities. Historically, the impact of finalizing provisional purchase price allocations has not been significant.  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 was recorded as goodwill, which 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. The goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes for each of the 2018 acquisitions with the exception of the acquisition of Marine Accessories Corporation which is expected to be partially deductible for income tax purposes, and the acquisition of LaSalle Bristol which is not deductible for income tax purposes. Intangible asset values were estimated using income based valuation methodologies. See Note 5 for information regarding the amortization periods assigned to finite-lived intangible assets.



immaterial. For the firstthird quarter ended April 1,September 30, 2018, revenue and operating income of approximately $12.6$82.4 million and $1.3$8.8 million, respectively, waswere included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income relating to the four businesses acquired in the first threenine months of 2018. The first nine months of 2018 included revenue and operating income of approximately $160.0 million and $17.3 million, respectively, related to these acquisitions. Acquisition-related costs in the aggregate associated with the businesses acquired in the first threenine months of 2019 and 2018 were immaterial.

Contingent Consideration

In connection with certain 2018 and 2017 acquisitions, if certain financial targets for the acquired businesses are achieved, the Company will be required to pay additional cash consideration. The Company has recorded 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. As required, the liabilities for the contingent consideration associated with each of these acquisitions will be measuredremeasured quarterly at fair value and the Company could record adjustments in future periods.value.

TheAs of September 29, 2019, the aggregate fair value of the estimated contingent consideration payments was $9.4$12.0 million, $4.9$4.5 million of which is included in the line item "Accrued liabilities" and $4.5$7.5 million is included in “Other long-term liabilities” on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position asposition. At December 31, 2018, the aggregate fair value of March 31, 2019.the estimated contingent consideration payments was $13.8 million, $4.4 million of which was included in the line item "Accrued liabilities" and $9.4 million was included in "Other long-term liabilities". The liabilities for contingent consideration expire at various dates through December 2023. The contingent consideration arrangements are subject to a maximum payment amount of up to $13.7$17.2 million in the aggregate. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company made cash payments of approximately $4.4 million related to contingent consideration liabilities, recording a corresponding reduction to accrued liabilities.

2019 Acquisitions
The Company completed 2 acquisitions in the third quarter and first nine months ended September 29, 2019, including the previously announced acquisition of G.G. Schmitt & Sons, Inc. ("G.G. Schmitt"), a Sarasota, Florida-based designer and manufacturer of customized hardware and structural components for the marine industry. The total initial consideration for these acquisitions was $21.1 million, plus subsequent contingent consideration payments over a one-year period based on future performance in connection with the acquisition of G.G. Schmitt. The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to final review and approval, and thus all required purchase accounting adjustments are subject to change within the measurement period as the Company finalizes its fair value estimates.
The results of operations for these acquisitions are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and the Manufacturing operating segment from their respective dates of acquisition.

The interest rates for borrowings under the 2018 Revolver and the 2018 Term Loan are the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin, with a fee payable by the Company on unused but committed portions of the Revolver;
The 2018 Revolver includes a $10.0 million limit for same day advances (“Swing Line”) which shall bear interest based upon the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin;
Up to $10.0 million of the 2018 Revolver is available as a sub facility for the issuance of standby letters of credit, which are subject to certain expiration dates;

At March 31, 2019, the Company had $95.0 million outstanding under the 2018 Term Loan under the LIBOR-based option, and borrowings outstanding under the 2018 Revolver of $385.0 million under the LIBOR-based option. The interest rate for incremental borrowings at March 31, 2019 was the Prime Rate plus 1.00% (or 6.50%) for the Base Rate-based option, or LIBOR plus 2.00% (or 4.50%) for the LIBOR-based option. At December 31, 2018, the Company had $96.3 million outstanding under the 2018 Term Loan under the LIBOR-based option, and borrowings outstanding under the 2018 Revolver of: (i) $388.0 million under the LIBOR-based option and (ii) $4.3 million under the Base Rate-based option. The interest rate for incremental borrowings at December 31, 2018 was the Prime Rate plus 1.00% (or 6.50%) for the Base Rate-based option, or LIBOR plus 2.00% (or 4.56%) for the LIBOR-based option. The fee payable on committed but unused portions of the 2018 Revolver was 0.25% at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Pursuant to the 2018 Credit Agreement, the financial covenants include: (a) a required maximum consolidated total leverage ratio, measured on a quarter-end basis, not to exceed 3.00:1.00 for the 12-month period ending on such quarter-end; and (b) a required minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, measured on a quarter-end basis, of at least 1.50:1.00 for the 12-month period ending on such quarter-end.

The consolidated total leverage ratio is the ratio for any period of consolidated total indebtedness (as measured as of the second day following the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter) to consolidated adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). Consolidated total indebtedness for any period is the sum of: (i) total debt outstanding under the 2018 Revolver, the 2018 Term Loan and the Convertible Notes (as defined herein); (ii) capital leases and letters of credit outstanding; and (iii) deferred payment obligations.

Total cash interest paid for the first quarter of 2019 and 2018 was $6.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively.



Interest Rate Swaps

In the third quarter of2018, the Company entered into $200.0 million notional amount of variable to fixed interest rate swaps to partially hedge risks associatedFacility with the variable LIBOR component of the 20182019 Credit Facility. These interest rate swaps fix the LIBOR component of interest expense on $200.0 million of the debt outstanding under the 2018 Credit Facility at an average interest rate of 2.91%, with an all-in average rate of 4.91% with the current applicable margin, discussed above. See Note 10 for further details.
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 amountSee Note 9 of the Convertible Notes upon issuance less the present valueto Consolidated Financial Statements section 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 beginning in the first quarter of 2018.Fiscal 2018 Form 10-K for further information. 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 March 31,September 29, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The unamortized portion of the debt discount and debt issuance costs as of MarchSeptember 29, 2019 and December 31, 20192018 was $28.5 million.
The net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes were approximately $167.5$25.0 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 10. 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% beginning August 1, 2018. 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 commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2018, 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.$30.1 million, respectively.
10.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, pursuant to the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions,which the Company acquired options to purchase the same number of shares of the Company'sits common stock (or 1,962,790 shares) initially underlying the Convertibles Notes at an initial strike price equal to the initial strike priceConvertible Notes. See Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements section of the Fiscal 2018 Form 10-K for information regarding 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.


Note Hedge Transactions.
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’sits common stock (or 1,962,790 shares)initially underlying the Convertible Notes. See Note 10 of the Notes at an initial strike priceto Consolidated Financial Statements section of approximately $113.93 per share, subjectthe Fiscal 2018 Form 10-K for further information regarding the Warrant Transactions.


There have been no material changes 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 costterms 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 onduring 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.nine month period ended September 29, 2019.
As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the Convertible Note Hedges Transactions and Warrant Transactions are recorded in stockholders’shareholders’ equity and are not accounted for as derivatives.
Interest Rate Swaps
The 20182019 Credit Facility exposes the Company to risk associated with the variability in interest expense associated with fluctuations in LIBOR. To partially mitigate this risk, the Company entered into interest rate swaps on a portion of its 2018 Credit Facility, now amended by the 2019 Credit Facility. As of March 31,September 29, 2019, the Company had a combined notional principal amount of $200.0 million of variable to fixed interest rate swap agreements, all of which wereare designated as cash flow hedges. These swap agreements effectively convert the interest expense associated with a portion of the 20182019 Term Loan and a portion of the 20182019 Revolver from variable interest rates to fixed interest rates and have maturities ranging from February 2022 to March 2022.

12.LEASES

TheAs discussed in Note 2, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 842 inon January of1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach as of the effective date of ASC 842 (the effective date method). Under the effective date method, financial results in periods reported prior to 2019 are unchanged.

As a result of the adoption of ASC 842, operating leases for certain warehouses, buildings, forklifts, trucks, trailers and other equipment are now recognized as right-of-use assets and corresponding short-term and long-term lease liabilities. The Company utilized a package of available practical expedients in the adoption of ASC 842, which, among them, does not require the reassessment of operating versus capital lease classification.

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 is included in total operating lease cost and not separately disclosed due to immateriality.immaterial. Lease and non-lease components in the fixed base rent of facility and equipment leases are included as a single component and accounted for as a lease. Pursuant to ASC 842, the Company elected to use the remaining non-cancellable lease term as of January 1, 2019 in determining the lease term at the date of adoption and the corresponding incremental borrowing rate for such leases. Variable lease expense, principally related to trucks, forklifts, and index-related facility rent escalators, was immaterial for the third quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2019 and is expected to be immaterial forSeptember 29, 2019. Leases have remaining lease terms of one year to teneleven years. Certain leases include options to renew for an additional term. Where there is reasonable certainty to utilize a renewal option, we would include the renewal option in the lease term used to calculate operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

OVERVIEW OF MARKETS AND RELATED INDUSTRY PERFORMANCE

Summary 
The first quarter of 2019 reflected a continuation of planned end market diversification and the execution of our organic and strategic growth initiatives as the gap continued to widen in the first quarter of 2019 between wholesale production and retail shipments in the recreational vehicleRecreational Vehicle ("RV") market. As RV dealers continued to manage inventory to return to more normalized levels, RV original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") continued to adjust production levels, and we expect OEM production to align with retail demand once normalized inventory levels are established among the dealers. We believe that overall dealer sentiment at recent RV shows thus far in 2019 has been positive and retail traffic and sales are off to a solid start to the year.
The Company has been able to continue to increase its content per unit in all markets despite the additional headwinds related to inclement weather in many parts of the country, uncertainty regarding the near-term direction of interest rates, uncertainty around tariffs, and commodity cost volatility. Industry fundamentals and demographics within each of our end markets remain strong. In addition, we carried a higher operating cost structure compared to revenues through the first quarter of 2019 in anticipation of expected improving retail demand in all four of our primary markets as we enter the traditionally stronger spring and summer selling seasons.

Our diversified market penetration in the marine and our residential and commercial industrial markets, which we have been strategically targeting, has helped to offset wholesale shipment declines in the first quarter of 2019 in our two largest market sectors, RV and manufactured housing ("MH"). At the same time, we achieved organic revenue growth in the first quarter of 2019 and realized savings related to synergistic opportunities resulting from acquisitions we have made in the last two years.

RV Industry 
The RV industry is our primary market and comprised 55% and 56% of the Company’s sales in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019.2019, respectively. Sales from the RV industry decreased 9%13% and 12% in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019, respectively, compared to the prior year quarter.periods.

According to the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (“RVIA”), wholesale shipments totaled 99,97693,357 units in the firstthird quarter of 2019, a decline of 27%13% compared to 137,086107,130 units in the firstthird quarter of 2018. Both towable units and motorized units, which accounted2018, while for 87% and 13%, respectively,the first nine months of first quarter 2019, wholesale units, were down 27% compared tounit shipments decreased 18% versus the prior year quarter.

We continue to believeperiod. Based on actual retail sales data through August, the Company estimates that retail unit shipments declined 6% and 7%, respectively, for the futurethird quarter of 2019 and first nine months of 2019 versus the comparable prior year periods. With estimated retail demand trajectory remains positive based on new and younger buyers and the emergence of incremental repeat buyersunit shipments outpacing wholesale unit shipments in the channel, increased participation by millennials, the continued shift to smaller travel trailers,third quarter and overall economic conditions. In addition, usedfirst nine months of 2019, RV inventory levels remain generally low with rising prices, supporting the demand for new RVsdealer inventories declined in the long-term.

both periods. The RVIA’s latest published expectations for fiscal 2019 project wholesale unit shipments to range frombe approximately 445,000 units to 476,000401,000 units, representing low-to-high-single digit percentage declinesa decline of 17% from 2018. We currently anticipate thatOn the retail side, the Company expects RV retail unit shipments to decline at a mid-to-high single digit rate in 2019. For the full year 2019, RV dealer inventories will continueare expected to normalize as we progress throughdecline by more than 50,000 units, positioning the second quarter of 2019 and will support aindustry to return to a more direct relationship between wholesale shipment levels aligned more closely withunit shipments and retail demand inunit shipments for the latter half of the second quarter and into the third quarter of 2019.upcoming 2020 selling season.

We have continued to capture market share through our strategic acquisitions, line extensions, and the introduction of new and innovative products and have a favorable view of growth for the RV industry based on a number of factors including:
Attractive industry demographic trends with new and younger buyers entering the market and baby boomers reaching retirement age;

Readily available financing and improving consumer credit;
New and innovative products coming to market;
Consumer confidence;
Increased strength in the overall economic environment, including lower unemployment rates, improving trends in wages and improving consumer confidence levels; and


The value of the travel and leisure lifestyle related to spending quality time with families.
Marine Industry
Sales to the marine industry, which represented approximately 15%13% and 14% of the Company's consolidated net sales in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019, respectively, decreased 7% and increased 99%34% compared to the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2018.

We anticipate that the marine market is poised to continue its recovery with the potential for a long runway of slow and steady growth as OEMs in this market continue to offer more value-added content and increased comfort and convenience on boats, consistent with the marine leisure lifestyle experience. Our marine portfolio companies are comprised of a high quality brand platform that is generating significant organic growth opportunities. The Company's combination of design, engineering, manufacturing and fabrication capabilities, along with its growing geographic footprint and comprehensive product offerings to its customers in the marine market, provides continuing opportunities for fully integrated solutions and additional content for the marine OEMs.

All indicators currently point toward another solid year in the marine industry with a growth rate in powerboat retail unit shipments for fiscal 2019 of low-to-mid-single digits based on long-term fundamental demand, aging boats in service, and the related replacement cycle, and positive consumer economic metrics.

2018, respectively. For the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019, overall marine retail unit shipments in the powerboat sector, which is the Company's primary marine market, increased approximately 2% and decreased approximately 7%5%, respectively, with aluminum fishing sales decreasing 5% and 11% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, respectively; pontoon sales increasing 11% and decreasing 14%1%, respectively; fiberglass sales decreasing 1% and 3%, respectively, fiberglass decreasing 4%,respectively; and ski and wake sales increasing 13%. Retail sales12% and 4%, respectively.

Adverse weather and flooding in certain regions of the country impacted marine retail unit shipments in the first half of 2019, particularly in the pontoon and aluminum fishing categories. Reflecting this retail softness in the first half of 2019, we saw inventory recalibration by marine dealers in the third quarter of 2019, which we believe contributed to a decline in wholesale unit shipments in the quarter despite the increase in overall retail unit shipments. Factoring in the impact of weather in the first half of 2019 and the related dealer inventory re-calibration, we anticipate that the powerboat sector of this market are seasonal and are traditionally strongestwill experience a retail unit percentage decline in the secondlow-to-mid single digits for fiscal 2019 and third quarters. This market continues to make a steady recovery, with single-digit annual average growth rates since 2010. Moreover, according to industry sources, the average age of boats in service is approximately 24 to 25 years compared to a 30-year estimated useful life, and approximately one million boats are expected to be retired over the next four years. The increased age of boats in service, low channel inventories, and continued positive demographics all point to anticipated growthwholesale unit percentage decline in the marine market.high-single digits.

MHManufactured Housing ("MH") Industry
Sales to the MH industry, which represented 17%19% and 18% of the Company’s sales in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019, respectively, increased 70%61% and 62% compared to the respective prior year.year periods. Based on industry
data from the Manufactured Housing Institute, and the Company's estimate for the month of March, MH wholesale unit shipments increased by approximately 2% and decreased by approximately 10%5% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, respectively. Manufactured housing was negatively impacted in the first quarterhalf of 2019. Similar to the fourth quarter of 2018, manufactured housing continues to be negatively impacted2019 by wet weather conditions in certain regions of the country where moving inventory and setting foundations and houses have been difficult. Nevertheless, demographic trends within thewere difficult, and as a result our current estimates indicate an overall percentage decline in MH market indicate strong expected demand patterns related to first time home buyers and those looking to downsize.

The Company believes it is well-positioned to capitalize on pent up demand and the significant upside potential of the MH marketwholesale unit shipments for fiscal 2019 in the long-term, especially given the increasing attractiveness of the single-family manufactured housing option and the combination of its nationwide geographic footprint, available capacity in current MH concentrated locations, and current content per unit 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 spread in 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.low-to-mid single digits.
Industrial Market
The industrial market is comprised primarily of the kitchen cabinet industry, hospitality market, retail and commercial fixtures market, office and household furniture market and regional distributors. Sales to this market represented 13% and 12% of our consolidated sales in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019, respectively, and increased 5%were virtually unchanged in the third quarter and the first quarternine months of 2019 compared to the prior year period.
periods. Overall, our revenues in these markets are focused on the residential housing, hospitality, high-rise housing and office, commercial construction and institutional furniture markets. Single and multifamily residential housing starts declined 5% and 19%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2019, with combined new housing starts down 10% in the quarter. Interest rate


increases and tariffs in the past year have created some headwinds, but potential demand remains strong given the lack of affordable housing capacity and inventories. We believe these factors present opportunities for continued pent up demand along with improving consumer credit, strong jobs and wage growth, and demographic trends related to new buyers and those looking to downsize, and are aligned well with our core housing and industrial market model.
The industrial market is primarily impacted by macroeconomic conditions and more specifically, conditions in the residential housing market. 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. The Company believes there is a direct correlation between the demand for its products
Combined new housing starts increased 4% in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the prior year quarter, with single family housing starts increasing 4% and multifamily residential starts increasing 6% for the same period. For the first nine months of 2019, single family housing market andstarts decreased 2%, while multifamily housing starts were virtually flat, with combined housing starts decreasing 1%. Our industrial products are generally among the last components installed in new residential housingunit construction and remodeling activities. Sales to the industrial market generally lagas such our related sales typically trail new residential housing starts by four to six months. Because of this lag in the relationship between new housing starts and our sale of related industrial products, we expect our industrial sales to nine months.
Fiscal Year 2019 Outlook
The 16 acquisitions we completedbenefit in totalthe next two quarters from recent growth in 2017 and 2018 continue to present organic growth opportunities and synergies to further increase market share gains, expand geographically, establish best practices across all of our brands, and service our customers at the highest level.residential housing starts. We continue to expect a return to a more normalized pattern of RV wholesale unit production in alignment with retail demand for fiscal year 2019.
Based on its most recent forecast, the RVIA expects the percentage decline in RV wholesale unit shipments for fiscal 2019 to range from low-single digits to high-single digits compared to full year 2018 reflecting the continued recalibration of dealer inventory levels. On the retail side, the Company expects RV retail unit shipments to be in the range of flat to a low-single digit percentage decline in 2019 with potential upside based on subsiding headwinds related to interest rates, tariffs, commodity prices, consumer confidence, and equity market volatility.

In the marine market, we anticipate that the retail unit growth rate in the powerboat sector of this market will be in the range of low-to-mid single digits in 2019 based on the increasing age of boats in service, balanced channel inventories, and continued positive demographics.

On the MH side, we are currently forecasting low-to-mid single digit growth rates in wholesale unit shipments for 2019, and a low single-digit growth rate in new housing starts overall and expect to continue to increase our content and market share in both of these market sectors beyond the general industry expectations as a result of increasing market penetration, strategic geographic expansions, and cross selling opportunities.for fiscal 2019.

Our team remains focused on strategic acquisitions in our existing, similar or complementary businesses, expanding operations in targeted regional territories, capturing market share and increasing our per unit content, keeping costs aligned with revenue, maximizing operating efficiencies, focusing on strategic capital expenditures to achieve cost reductions, labor efficiencies and increased capacity, talent management, engagement and retention, and the execution of our organizational strategic agenda.
In conjunction with our organizational strategic agenda, we plan to continue to make targeted capital investments to support new business and leverage our operating platform. The current capital plan for full year 2019 includes expenditures of approximately $30 million related primarily to strategic investments in geographic expansions, the strategic replacement and upgrading of production equipment to improve efficiencies and increase capacity, new process and product development, and other strategic capital and maintenance improvements.

Net Sales. Net sales in the firstthird quarter of 2019 increased $56.4decreased $8.9 million, or 10%2%, to $608.2$566.2 million from $551.8$575.1 million in the firstthird quarter of 2018. The Company's net sales decreased in two of its primary markets, with a decrease in RV market sales of 13% and a decrease in marine market sales of 7%, while industrial market sales were virtually flat and MH market sales increased 61% when compared to the prior year quarter.

Net sales in the first nine months of 2019 increased $55.8 million, or 3%, to $1.79 billion from $1.73 billion in the prior year period. The Company's net sales increased in threetwo of its primary markets in the first quarternine months of 2019 with increases of 99% in marine, 70%62% in MH and 5%34% in marine, while industrial market sales were virtually unchanged and RV market sales decreased 12% compared to 2018.

The consolidated net sales decrease in the third quarter of 2019 primarily reflected decreases in OEM wholesale unit shipments in the RV and marine industries, partly offset by a declinean increase in revenue from the acquisition of 9%LaSalle Bristol ("LaSalle"), completed in RV market sales.

the fourth quarter of 2018. The consolidated net sales increase in the first quarternine months of 2019 primarily reflectedwas mostly attributed to the contribution of revenue from nine acquisitions completed in fiscal year 2018, with noLaSalle.

Revenue attributable to acquisitions completed in the first nine months of 2019 was immaterial for both the third quarter and first nine months of 2019. In addition to the contributions of the 2018 acquisitions, increases in sales reflected increased penetration through geographic and product expansion efforts in the marine and MH markets. In the first quarter of 2018, we acquired Metal Moulding Corporation, Aluminum Metals Company, LLC, IMP Holdings, LLC d/b/a/ Indiana Marine Products, and Collins & Company, Inc. The revenueRevenue attributable to these four acquisitions completed in the first quarternine months of 2018 was $12.6 million.$82.4 million and $160.0 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, respectively.

The Company’s RV content per wholesale unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis) for the firstthird quarter of 2019 increased approximately 30%9% to $3,131$3,132 from $2,414$2,875 for the firstthird quarter of 2018. The marineMarine content per retail unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis) for the firstthird quarter of 2019 increased approximately 118%54% to an estimated $1,490$1,624 from $683$1,054 for the firstthird quarter of 2018. MH content per wholesale unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis) for the firstthird quarter of 2019 increased approximately 42%65% to an estimated $3,389$4,327 from $2,382$2,628 for the firstthird quarter of 2018.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased $47.6decreased $6.6 million, or 10%1%, to $501.7$461.9 million in the firstthird quarter of 2019 from $454.1$468.5 million in 2018. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold increased during the third quarter of 2019 to 81.6% from 81.5% in 2018. For the first nine months of 2019, cost of goods sold increased $51.4 million, or 4%, to $1,464.1 million from $1,412.6 million in 2018. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold increased during the first quarternine months of 2019 to 82.5%81.9% from 82.3%81.6% in 2018.



Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was impacted during the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019 by: (i) decreased RV revenue relative tohigher overall fixed overhead costs;costs relative to RV and marine revenue; (ii) the lower distribution margin sales profile of LaSalle, Bristol ("LaSalle"), which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2018 and (iii) inventory solda temporary disruption in the first quarter of 2019 which reflected higher input costs incurred in the latter part of 2018 relativeoperations and associated inefficiencies related to the current commodities market. Part of the increase in the cost of goods sold percentage was offset by leveraging fixed costs in the marine and industrial sectors and by the Company's acquisitions over the last 18 to 24 months that have a lower cost of goods sold percentage profile.cybersecurity incident, discussed below. In general, the Company's cost of goods sold percentage can be impacted from quarter-to-quarter by demand changes in certain market sectors that can result in fluctuating costs of certain raw materials and commodity-based components that are utilized and distributed. The timingin the production of the Company's pass through of input cost increases and decreases to its customers may not coincide with the period in which such costs are incurred in inventory.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $8.7decreased $2.4 million, or 9%2%, to $106.5$104.3 million in the firstthird quarter of 2019 from $97.8$106.7 million in 2018. For the first nine months of 2019, gross profit increased $4.3 million, or 1%, to $323.5 million from $319.2 million in 2018. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased to 17.5%18.4% in the firstthird quarter of 2019 from 17.7%18.5% in the same period in 2018, and decreased to 18.1% for the first nine months of 2019 from 18.4% in the same period in 2018. The improvementchanges in gross profit dollars and the impact to theas a percentage of net sales in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018 reflectedreflect 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 as well as the competitive environment that can cause gross margins to fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year. Material and labor costs are the primary factors determining our cost of products sold, and any future increases in raw material or labor costs would impact our profit margins negatively if we were unable to raise the selling prices to our customers for our products by corresponding amounts. Historically, we have generally been able to pass along cost increases to customers.
 
Warehouse and Delivery Expenses. Warehouse and delivery expenses increased $7.0$4.1 million, or 41%21%, to $24.0$23.9 million in the firstthird quarter of 2019 from $17.0$19.8 million in 2018. For the first nine months in 2019, warehouse and delivery expenses increased $18.7 million, or 34%, to $74.2 million from $55.5 million in 2018. As a percentage of net sales, warehouse and delivery expenses were 4.0%4.2% in the firstthird quarter of 2019 compared to 3.1%3.4% in the third quarter of 2018 and 4.2% in the first quarternine months of 2019 compared to 3.2% the first nine months of 2018. The expense increase in expense in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019 compared to the prior year periodperiods was primarily attributable to increased sales volumes and to the impact of certain acquisitions completed in 2018 that had higher warehouse and delivery expenses as a percentage of net sales when compared to the consolidated percentage. For the first nine months of 2019 compared to the prior year period, increased sales volumes also contributed to the increase in warehouse and delivery expense. In addition, the Company's shipments to the OEMs in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019 were generally in lower volume and higher frequency, and as a result transportation costs relative to sales levels of products delivered increased as a percentage of net sales.
 
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A)("SG&A") Expenses. SG&A expenses increased $5.9$0.5 million, or 18%2%, to $37.7$33.8 million in the firstthird quarter of 2019 from $31.8$33.3 million in 2018. For the first nine months of 2019, SG&A expenses increased $5.4 million, or 5%, to $104.4 million from $99.0 million in 2018. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 6.2%6.0% in the firstthird quarter of 2019 compared to 5.8% in the firstthird quarter of 2018 and 5.8% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to 5.7% in 2018.

The increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019 compared to the prior year period2018 is primarily reflected:due to: (i) the impact of additional headcountan increase in professional service fees and administrative expensesother costs associated with recent acquisitions;the cyber security event discussed below; (ii) a loss on extinguishment of debt associated with the additional investment in and costs related to an expansionamendment of certain leadership roles to support our continued strategic growth plans in 2019 and beyondthe Company's credit facility and (iii) the impact of certain acquisitions completed in 2018 that had higher SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales when compared to the consolidated percentage. Partially offsetting these factors was a decrease in incentive compensation and sales commissions.
 
Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets increased $1.9$0.3 million, or 4%, in the firstthird quarter of 2019 compared to the prior year quarter, and increased $1.3 million, or 5%, in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the prior year period. The increase in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared to the prior year periods primarily reflectingreflects the impact of businesses acquired in 2018. In the aggregate, in conjunction with the 2018, acquisitions, the Company recognized an estimated $121.9 million in certain finite-livedpartly offset by purchase accounting adjustments to intangible assets that are being amortized over periods ranging from threeand the associated impact to 10 years.amortization expense.

Operating Income. Operating income decreased $6.0$7.3 million, or 14%16%, to $35.8$37.4 million in the firstthird quarter of 2019 from $41.8$44.7 million in 2018. For the first nine months of 2019, operating income decreased $21.1 million, or 15%, to $118.5 million from $139.5 million in the prior year period.

Operating income in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 attributable to acquisitions completed in the first nine months of 2019 was immaterial. Operating income in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2018 included $1.3$8.8 million and $17.3 million, respectively, attributable to the acquisitions completed in that period.the first nine months of 2018. The change in operating income and operating margin is primarily attributable to the items discussed above.



Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense increased $4.6$1.3 million, or 17%, to $9.0$8.6 million in the firstthird quarter of 2019 from $4.4$7.3 million in the prior year. For the first nine months of 2019, interest expense increased $8.2 million, or 46%, to $26.2 million from $18.0 million in the prior year period. The increase in interest expense reflects: (i) increased borrowings related to 2018 acquisitions, and (ii) increases in the average interest rate on the variable rate portion of the Company's debt, which reflects increases in LIBOR in the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019 compared to the prior year.year periods and (iii) an increase in the Company's overall average interest rate resulting from the issuance of the Company's 7.5% Senior Notes due 2027 (the "Senior Notes") in the third quarter of 2019.
 
Income Taxes. Income tax expense decreased $1.9 million, or 21%, to $7.5 million from $9.4 million in the prior year period. For the first nine months of 2019, income tax expense decreased $6.0 million, or 21%, to $22.7 million from $28.7 million in the prior year period. For the third quarter of 2019, the effective tax rate was 22.3%26.0% compared to 19.6%25.3% in the comparable 2018 period. For the first nine months of 2019, the effective tax rate was 24.6% compared to 23.6% for the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the periods presented includes the impact of the recognition of excess tax benefits on share-based compensation that were recorded as a reduction to income tax expense upon realization. Amounts recorded include $0.8$0.9 million inand $2.2 million for the first quarter ofnine-month 2019 and $2.1 million in2018 periods, respectively, with no amounts for the first quarter of 2018. Excluding the impact relating to the share-based payment awards in the first quarter of 2019 and any additional impact in the remainder of 2019, and excluding the impact of one-time tax items, we anticipate our full year 2019 effective tax rate to be between 25% and 26%.comparable quarterly periods.

The Company's combined effective income tax rate from period to period and for the full year 2019 could further fluctuate due to: (i) refinements in federal and state income tax estimates, which are impacted by the availability of tax credits; (ii)


permanent differences impacting the effective tax rate; (iii) shifts in apportionment factors among states as a result of recent acquisition activity and other factors and (iv) the timing of the recognition of excess tax benefits related to the vesting of share-based payments awards as previously discussed.

Net Income. Net income for the firstthird quarter of 2019 was $20.8$21.3 million, or $0.90$0.92 per diluted share, compared to $30.1$27.9 million, or $1.20$1.15 per diluted share for 2018. For the first nine months of 2019, net income was $69.6 million, or $2.99 per diluted share, compared to $92.9 million, or $3.77 per diluted share for 2018. The changes in net income for the third quarter and first quarternine months of 2019 compared to prior year periods reflect the impact of the items previously discussed.

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


Net cash provided by operating activities increased $2.1decreased $5.4 million to $27.9$122.0 million in the first quarternine months of 2019 from $25.8$127.4 million in the first quarternine months of 2018 primarily due to: a decrease in net income of $23.3 million, partly offset by (i) an increase inof depreciation and amortization of $4.2 million;$6.6 million, (ii) an increase in non-cash intereststock based compensation expense, from the amortization of convertible notes debt discount, of $0.4 million; (iii) an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $0.3 million; (iv) a decrease in use of cash fromdeferred income taxes and other operating cash flowsitems of $1.1$5.0 million and (vi)(iii) a decrease in the usenet source of cash from changes in operating assets and liabilities net of acquisitions of businesses, of $5.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in net income of $9.2$6.3 million.

Financing Activities 
Cash flows from financing activities are one of the Company's primary sources of liquidity through borrowings effective June 5, 2018 under athe Company's credit facility (the "2018 Credit Facility") consisting of a revolving credit loan (the "2018 Revolver")as well as convertible and a term loan (the "2018 Term Loan").senior note issuances in 2018 and 2019, respectively.

Summary of Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and available borrowings under its 2018current credit facility (the "2019 Credit FacilityFacility") are expected to be sufficient to meet anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months, exclusive of any acquisitions, based on its current cash flow budgets and forecast of short-term and long-term liquidity needs.
The ability to access unused borrowing capacity under the 20182019 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 20182019 Credit Agreement. InFacility (the "2019 Credit Agreement").

As of and for the first quarter ofSeptember 29, 2019 reporting date, the Company was in compliance with its financial debt covenants as required under the terms of the 20182019 Credit Agreement. SeeThe required maximum consolidated total leverage ratio and the required minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio compared to the actual amounts as of September 29, 2019 and for the fiscal period then ended are as follows:

The indenture associated with the Senior Notes places restrictions on the Company’s ability to, among other items, (i) incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares; (ii) pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions; (iii) make investments; (iv) transfer or sell assets; and (v) merge or consolidate. The Senior Note 9indenture also provides for customary events of default, which could require the Senior Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.become due and payable immediately, and also contains customary covenant provisions with which the Company is in compliance as of September 29, 2019.

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 2018 Revolverrevolving credit loan (the "2019 Revolver") and the 2018term loan (the "2019 Term Loan,Loan") comprising the 2019 Credit Facility, which are subject to variable rates of interest, wereare subject to a maximum total borrowing limit of $900.0$650.0 million (effective June 5, 2018)September 17, 2019). See Note 9 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. See Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information on interest rate swaps used to partially hedge variable interest rates under the 20182019 Revolver and 20182019 Term Loan.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
In the first quarter of 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)". See Note 12 to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. There have been no other material changes to our significantcritical accounting policies which are summarized in the MD&A and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. 
 OTHER
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, resulting in dealers delaying certain restocking purchases until new product lines are introduced at these shows. In addition, current and future seasonal industry trends may be different than in prior years due to the impact of national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs and other products for which the Company sells its components, timing of dealer orders, fluctuations in dealer inventories, and from time to time, the impact of severe weather conditions on the timing of industry-wide wholesale shipments.
Cyber Security Incident
At the end of the third quarter of 2019, the Company experienced a highly-sophisticated third-party malware cyberattack that impacted certain of the Company's administrative and production servers and resulted in a disruption of administrative and network operations for approximately two business days. In response to the attack, the Company immediately took steps to ensure customer commitments were honored and to remediate the attack to minimize the disruption. Further, although the Company has programs in place to detect, contain and respond to data security incidents, the Company began an investigation of the attack, including engaging external forensic and other IT experts, and is in the process of implementing further security measures and processes designed to prevent unauthorized access to its information systems and mitigate cybersecurity related risks. Estimated after-tax costs incurred in the third quarter of 2019 related to the cyberattack were approximately $1.5 million, which included incremental consulting and professional fees, administrative, operating, and production inefficiencies, and equipment replacement and repair. No additional material costs are expected to be incurred in future quarters related to the cyber incident.

INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
The Company makes forward-looking statements with respect to financial condition, results of operations, business strategies, operating efficiencies or synergies, competitive position, growth opportunities for existing products, plans and objectives of management, markets for the common stock of Patrick Industries, Inc. and other matters from time to time and desires to take advantage of the “safe harbor” which is afforded such statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 when they are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. The statements contained in the foregoing “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, as well as other statements contained in the quarterly report and statements contained in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), publicly disseminated press releases, quarterly earnings conference calls, and statements which may be made from time to time in the future by management of the Company in presentations to shareholders, prospective investors, and others interested in the business and financial affairs of the Company, which are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.

There can be no assurance that any forward-looking statement will be realized or that


actual results will not be significantly different from that set forth in such forward-looking statement. The Company does not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements except as required by law. FactorsInformation about certain risks that maycould affect our business and cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied in the Company’s operations and prospectsforward-looking statements are contained in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, and in the Company's Form 10-Qs for subsequent quarterly periods, which are filed with the SEC and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.



ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Debt Obligations under Credit Agreement
At March 31,September 29, 2019, our total debt obligations under our 20182019 Credit Agreement were under LIBOR-based interest rates. A 100 basis100-basis point increase in the underlying LIBOR and prime rates would result in additional annual interest cost of approximately $2.8$0.4 million, assuming average borrowings, including the 20182019 Term Loan, subject to variable rates of $280.0$35.0 million, which was the amount of such borrowings outstanding at March 31,September 29, 2019 subject to variable rates. The $280.0$35.0 million excludes the reclassification of deferred financing costs related to the 20182019 Term Loan and $200.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the 20182019 Credit Facility that are hedged at a fixed interest rate through interest rate swaps.

Inflation 
The prices of key raw materials, consisting primarily of lauan, gypsum, particleboard, aluminum, softwoods lumber, and petroleum-based products are influenced by demand and other factors specific to these commodities, such as the price of oil, rather than being directly affected by inflationary pressures. Prices of certain commodities have historically been volatile and continued to fluctuate in the first threenine months of 2019. 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 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains “disclosure controls and procedures”, as such term is defined under Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and the Company’s management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to the Company, including consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the firstthird quarter ended March 31,September 29, 2019 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.
