AMERICAN WOODMARK CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note A--Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the ~~six-month~~three-month period ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending April 30, ~~2023~~2024 ("fiscal ~~2023"~~2024"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, ~~2022~~2023 ("fiscal ~~2022"~~2023") filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Goodwill and Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the net amount of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination measured at fair value. The Company does not amortize goodwill but evaluates for impairment annually, or whenever events occur or ~~changes in~~ circumstances ~~indicate~~change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying ~~value may not be recoverable.~~amount.

In accordance with accounting standards, when evaluating goodwill, an entity has the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. If after such assessment an entity concludes that it is more likely than not that the asset is not impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to determine the fair value of the asset using a quantitative impairment test, and if impaired, the associated assets must be written down toby the amount that the carrying value exceeds the fair ~~value.~~value of the reporting unit. There were no impairment charges related to goodwill for the ~~three- and six-month~~three-month periods ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021.~~2022.

Intangible assets consist of customer relationship intangibles. The Company amortizes the cost of intangible assets over their estimated useful lives, six years, unless such lives are deemed indefinite. The Company reviews its intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. There were no impairment charges related to intangible assets for the ~~three- and six-month~~three-month periods ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021.~~2022.

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Company uses derivatives as part of the normal business operations to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates associated with variable interest rate debt and foreign exchange rates. The Company has established policies and procedures that govern the risk management of these exposures. The primary objective in managing these exposures is to add stability to interest expense, manage the Company's exposure to interest rate movements, and manage the risk from adverse fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

The Company uses interest rate swap contracts to manage interest rate exposures. The Company records derivatives in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. If a derivative is deemed to be ineffective, the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings.

The Company also manages risks through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company recognizes its outstanding forward contracts in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at their fair values. The Company does not designate the forward contracts as accounting hedges. The changes in the fair value of the forward contracts are recorded in other (income) expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances to conform to the current year presentation.

Note B--New Accounting Pronouncements

~~In March 2020,~~There are no relevant recently issued accounting pronouncements that would materially impact the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-04 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." These amendments provide temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedientsCompany’s condensed consolidated financial statements and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. It is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. The guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022related disclosures.

109

and can be adopted as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. The Company has identified loans and other financial instruments that are directly or indirectly influenced by LIBOR and does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-04 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Note D--Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has various stock-based compensation plans. During the ~~three-months~~three months ended ~~October~~July 31, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company approved grants of 18,320 service-based restricted stock units ("RSUs") to non-employee directors. These service-based RSUs (i) vest daily through the end of the two-year vesting period as long as the recipient continuously remains a member of the Board and (ii) entitle the recipient to receive one share of the Company's common stock per unit vested. During the six-months ended October 31, 2022,2023, the Board of Directors of the Company approved grants of service-based ~~RSUs~~restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance-based RSUs to key employees. The performance-based RSUs totaled ~~119,772~~124,282 units and the service-based RSUs totaled ~~64,528~~66,968 units. The performance-based RSUs entitle the recipients to receive one share of the Company's common stock per unit granted if applicable performance conditions are met and the recipient remains continuously employed with the Company until the units vest. The service-based RSUs entitle the recipients to receive one share of the Company's common stock per unit granted if they remain continuously employed with the Company until the units vest. ~~All~~Prior to June 2023, all of the Company's RSUs granted to employees cliff-vest three years from the grant date. Beginning in June 2023, service-based RSUs granted to employees vest one-third on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date.

For the ~~three- and six-month~~three-month periods ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, stock-based compensation expense was allocated as follows:

Each performance-based RSTU entitles the recipient to receive a payment in cash equal to the fair market value of one share of the Company's common stock as of the payment date if applicable performance conditions are met and the recipient remains continuously employed with the Company until the units vest. The service-based RSTUs entitle the recipients to receive a

payment in cash equal to the fair market value of one share of the Company's common stock as of the payment date if they remain continuously employed with the Company until the units vest. ~~All~~Prior to June 2023, all of the Company's RSTUs granted to employees cliff-vest three years from the grant date. Beginning in June 2023, service-based RSTUs granted to employees vest one-third on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. The fair value of each cash-settled RSTU award is remeasured at the end of each reporting period and the liability is adjusted, and related expense recorded, based on the new fair value. The expense recognized for the ~~six-month~~three-month periods ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, and the liability as of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and April 30, ~~2022,~~2023, related to RSTUs is not significant.

Note I--Product Warranty

The Company estimates outstanding warranty costs based on the historical relationship between warranty claims and revenues. The warranty accrual is reviewed monthly to verify that it properly reflects the remaining obligation based on the anticipated expenditures over the balance of the obligation period. Adjustments are made when actual warranty claim experience differs from estimates. Warranty claims are generally made within two months of the original shipment date.

Note J--Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilizes the hierarchy of fair value measurements to classify certain of its assets and liabilities based upon the following definitions:

Level 1- Investments with quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company's cash equivalents are invested in money market funds, mutual funds, and certificates of deposit. The Company's mutual fund investment assets represent contributions made and invested on behalf of the Company's former ~~named~~ executive officers in a supplementary employee retirement plan.

Level 2- Investments with observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3- Investments with unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no Level 3 assets or liabilities measured on a recurring basis.

The Company's financial instruments include cash and equivalents, marketable securities, and other investments; accounts receivable and accounts payable; interest rate swap and foreign exchange forward contracts; and short- and long-term debt. The carrying values of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable and payable, and short-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets approximate their fair value due to the short maturities of these items. The interest rate swap and foreign exchange forward contracts were marked to market and therefore represent fair value. The fair values of these contracts are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. The following table summarizes the fair value of assets ~~and liabilities~~ that are recorded in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and April 30, ~~2022~~2023 at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):


		Fair Value Measurements							Fair Value Measurements

There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Note K--Loans Payable and Long-Term Debt

On December 29, 2017, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the "Prior Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The Prior Credit Agreement provided for a $100 million revolving loan facility with a $25 million sub-facility for the issuance of letters of credit, a $250 million initial term loan facility, and a $250 million delayed draw term loan facility. The Company borrowed the entire $250 million under the initial term loan facility, the entire $250 million under the delayed draw term loan facility, and approximately $50 million under the revolving loan facility in connection with its acquisition of RSI Home Products, Inc. ("RSI") and the refinancing of certain senior notes assumed from RSI. The facilities under the Prior Credit Agreement were scheduled to mature on December 29, 2022.

On April 22, 2021, the Company amended and restated its prior credit agreement and on January 17, 2023 the ~~Prior Credit Agreement.~~Company entered into an amendment of such agreement to transition the applicable interest rate from LIBOR to Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), effective January 31, 2023. The amended and restated credit agreement (the "A&R Credit Agreement") provides for a $500 million revolving loan facility with a $50 million sub-facility for the issuance of letters of credit (the "Revolving Facility") and a $250 million term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility"). Also on April 22, 2021, the Company borrowed the entire $250 million under the Term Loan Facility and approximately $264 million under the Revolving Facility to fund, in part, the repayment in full of the amounts then outstanding under ~~the Prior Credit Agreement~~its prior credit agreement and the ~~complete~~ redemption of ~~its~~$350 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes due ~~2026.~~2026 (the Senior Notes). The Company is required to repay the Term Loan Facility in specified quarterly ~~installments.~~installments, which have been prepaid through April 30, 2025. The Revolving Facility and Term Loan Facility mature on April 22, 2026.

As of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and April 30, ~~2022, $231.3~~2023, $206.3 million and ~~$237.5~~$206.3 million, respectively, was outstanding on the Term Loan Facility. As of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and April 30, ~~2022, $249.3~~2023, $163.8 million and ~~$263.0~~$163.8 million, respectively, was outstanding under the Revolving Facility.

Outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Facility were ~~$11.4~~$13.0 million as of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, leaving approximately ~~$239.4~~$323.2 million in available capacity under the Revolving Facility as of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022.~~2023. The outstanding balances noted above approximate fair value as the facilities have a floating interest rate.

Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Facility bear interest based on a fluctuating rate measured by reference to either, at the Company's option, a base rate plus an applicable margin or ~~LIBOR~~SOFR plus 10 basis points plus an applicable margin, with the applicable margin being determined by reference to the Company's then-current "Secured Net Leverage Ratio." The Company also incurs a quarterly commitment fee on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Facility during the applicable quarter at a rate per annum also determined by reference to the Company's then-current "Secured Net Leverage Ratio." In addition, a letter of credit fee accrues on the face amount of any outstanding letters of credit at a per annum rate equal to the applicable margin on ~~LIBOR~~SOFR loans, payable quarterly in arrears. As of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the

applicable margin with respect to base rate loans and ~~LIBOR~~SOFR loans was ~~0.50%~~0.0% and ~~1.50%~~1.0%, respectively, and the commitment fee was ~~0.15%~~0.1%. The A&R Credit Agreement includes provisions providing for the transition from LIBOR to a replacement benchmark upon the occurrence of certain events. The Company does not currently expect any such transition to materially impact its financing costs.

The A&R Credit Agreement includes certain financial covenants that require the Company to maintain (i) a "Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio" of no less than 2.00 to 1.00 and (ii) a "Total Net Leverage Ratio" of no greater than 4.00 to 1.00, subject, in each case, to certain limited exceptions.

The A&R Credit Agreement includes certain additional covenants, including negative covenants that restrict the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, create additional liens on its assets, make certain investments, dispose of its assets, or engage in a merger or other similar transaction, or engage in transactions with affiliates, subject, in each case, to the various exceptions and conditions described in the A&R Credit Agreement. The negative covenants further restrict the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to make certain restricted payments, including, in the case of the Company, the payment of dividends and the repurchase of common stock, in certain limited circumstances.

As of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants included in the A&R Credit Agreement.

Note L--Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest Rate Swap Contracts

The Company enters into interest rate swap contracts to manage variability in the amount of known or expected cash payments related to portions of its variable rate debt. On May 28, 2021, the Company entered into four interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $200 million to hedge part of the variable rate interest payments under the Term Loan Facility. The interest rate swaps became effective on May 28, 2021 and will terminate on May 30, 2025. The interest rate swaps economically convert a portion of the variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. The Company receives floating interest payments monthly based on one-month ~~LIBOR~~SOFR and pays a fixed rate of ~~0.5980%~~0.53% to the counterparty.

The interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. Changes in fair value are recorded to other comprehensive income. The risk management objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage the Company's exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the contract agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Realized gains or losses in connection with required interest payments on interest rate swaps are recorded in earnings, as a component of interest expense, net to offset variability in interest expense associated with the underlying debt's cash flows.

For the ~~three- and six-month~~three-month periods ended ~~October~~July 31, 2023 and 2022, unrealized gains (losses), net of deferred taxes, of ~~$6.1~~$2.7 million and ~~$5.0~~$(1.1) million, respectively, were recorded in other comprehensive income, and ~~$1.1~~$1.8 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of realized gains (losses) were reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to interest expense, net due to interest received from and payments made to the swap counterparties. For the three- and six-month periods ended October 31, 2021, unrealized gains (losses), net of deferred taxes, of $2.5 million and $1.9 million, respectively, were recorded in other comprehensive income, and $0.3 million and $0.4$0.2 million, respectively, of realized gains (losses) were reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to interest expense, net due to interest received from and payments made to the swap counterparties. As of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company anticipates reclassifying approximately ~~$8.4~~$9.3 million of net hedging gains from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings during the next 12 months to offset the variability of the hedged items during this period.

The fair value of the derivative instruments are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts

At ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company held forward contracts maturing from ~~November 2022~~August 2023 to April ~~2023~~2024 to purchase ~~422.4~~334.0 million Mexican pesos at an exchange ~~rates ranging from 21.11 to 21.74~~rate of 18.91 Mexican pesos to one U.S. dollar. Additionally, the Company entered into a contingent forward contract with maturities from May 2024 to April 2025 to purchase 660.0 million Mexican pesos at an exchange rate of 18.91 Mexican pesos to one U.S. dollar. This contingent forward contract gives the bank the option to cancel these forward contracts in April 2024. An ~~immaterial~~ asset of $1.0 million is recorded in prepaid expense and other on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Note M--Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates for the ~~three- and six-month periods~~three-month period ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022 were 25.2% and 25.1%, respectively,~~2023 was 21.9% compared with ~~12.1% and 23.1%~~25.0% in the comparable ~~periods~~period in the prior fiscal year. The effective rates were higher than the 21.0% U.S. statutory rate for ~~the three- and six-month~~all periods ~~ended October 31, 2022~~presented primarily due to state income taxes. The effective rate for the ~~periods~~period ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 was ~~higher~~lower than the comparable ~~periods~~period in the prior fiscal year primarily due to a favorable ~~uncertain~~increase in federal tax ~~position reversal~~credits for prior periods and stock compensation deductions booked in the ~~prior periods.~~current quarter.

Note N--Revenue Recognition

The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers into major sales distribution channels as these categories depict the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows that are affected by economic factors. The following table disaggregates our consolidated revenue by major sales distribution channels for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021:~~2022:

Note O--Concentration of Risks

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions and such balances may, at times, exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk with respect to cash.

Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of each customer's financial condition and generally collateral is not required. The Company's customers operate in the new home construction and home remodeling markets.

The Company maintains an allowance for expected credit losses based upon management's evaluation and judgment of potential net loss. The allowance is estimated based upon historical experience, the effects of current developments and economic conditions, and each customer's current and anticipated financial condition. Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and updated. Any resulting adjustments to the allowance are reflected in current operating results.

As of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company's two largest customers, Customers A and B, represented ~~31.7%~~31.5% and ~~17.5%~~23.4% of the Company's gross customer receivables, respectively. As of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2021,~~2022, Customers A and B represented ~~31.2%~~33.6% and ~~19.6%~~17.2% of the Company's gross customer receivables, respectively.

The following table summarizes the percentage of net sales attributable to the Company's two largest customers for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021:~~2022:


		Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended			Three Months Ended

Customer B	Customer B	13.4%	15.8%	13.8%	15.6%	Customer B		14.0%	14.2%

Note P--Other Information

The Company is involved in suits and claims in the normal course of business, including without limitation product liability and general liability claims, and claims pending before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company consults with its legal counsel to ascertain the reasonable likelihood that such claims may result in a loss. As required by FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 450, "Contingencies," the Company categorizes the various suits and claims into three categories according to their likelihood for resulting in potential loss: those that are probable,

those that are reasonably possible, and those that are deemed to be remote. Where losses are deemed to be probable and estimable, accruals are made. Where losses are deemed to be reasonably possible, a range of loss estimates is determined and considered for disclosure. In determining these loss range estimates, the Company considers known values of similar claims and consults with outside counsel.

Except as described below, the Company believes that the aggregate range of loss stemming from the various suits and asserted and unasserted claims that were deemed to be either probable or reasonably possible was not material as of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

Antidumping and Countervailing Duties Investigation

In February 2020, a conglomeration of domestic manufacturers filed a scope and circumvention petition seeking the imposition of antidumping (“AD”) and countervailing duties (“CVD”) with the United States Department of Commerce (“DOC”) and the United States International Trade Commission (“ITC”) against imports of hardwood plywood assembled in Vietnam using

cores sourced from China. In July 2022, the DOC issued a Preliminary Scope Determination and Affirmative Preliminary Determination of Circumvention of the Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders (“Preliminary Determination”). In July 2023, the DOC issued a Final Determination of Circumvention of the Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders (“Final Determination”).

Included in the Final Determination is a list of Vietnamese suppliers not eligible for certification.

AD and CVD cash deposits of 206% are required for imports from the Vietnamese suppliers not eligible for certification. Many of the Vietnamese suppliers ~~have~~ appealed their inclusion on the ineligible for certification ~~list.~~list in the Preliminary Determination. Because two of the Company’s primary Vietnamese plywood vendors ~~are included~~remained on the ineligible for certification list in the Final Determination, the Company ~~has determined that it is reasonably possible that it may experience~~recorded a loss ~~due to these matters and estimates that~~on unliquidated customs entries as of Final Determination in July 2023. The loss recorded in the ~~maximum total potential loss for prior and future purchase to be approximately $8.0 million. During the second~~first quarter of fiscal ~~2023,~~2024 was $4.9 million, or $3.7 million net of tax. Through the first fiscal quarter of 2024, the Company has remitted deposits of $3.8 million pursuant to the Preliminary Determination. ~~The deposits remitted are included in other assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.~~ Based on the evidence provided from the Vietnamese suppliers, the specific characteristics of the product imported and other relevant matters, the Company intends to vigorously appeal ~~any determination~~the Final Determination that it is subject to these duties and believes that any deposits made will ultimately be refunded upon settlement of the appeals. Our last order was placed with these vendors in June 2022.

Overview

American Woodmark Corporation manufactures and distributes kitchen, bath, and home organization products for the remodeling and new home construction markets. Its products are sold on a national basis directly to home centers and builders and through a network of independent dealers and distributors. As of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company operated 17 manufacturing facilities in the United States and Mexico, ~~and~~ eight primary service centers, and one distribution center located throughout the United States.

The three-month period ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 was the Company's ~~second~~first quarter of its fiscal year that ends on April 30, ~~2023~~2024 ("fiscal ~~2023"~~2024").

Financial Overview

The ~~Company's remodeling-based business~~Company was impacted by the following macro-economic trends during the ~~second~~first quarter of fiscal ~~2023:~~2024:

•The median price per existing home sold ~~rose~~declined during the second calendar quarter of ~~2022~~2023 compared to the same period one year ago by ~~8.7%~~2.1% according to data provided by the National Association of Realtors, and existing home sales decreased ~~21.4%~~20.8% during the second calendar quarter of ~~2022~~2023 compared to the same period in the prior year;

•The unemployment rate ~~decreased to 3.7%~~remained flat at 3.5% as of ~~October 2022~~July 2023 compared to ~~4.6%~~3.5% as of ~~October 2021~~July 2022, and increased slightly from 3.4% in April 2023, according to data provided by the U.S. Department of Labor; ~~additionally, the unemployment rate increased slightly from 3.6% in April 2022;~~

•Mortgage interest rates increased with a thirty-year fixed mortgage rate of approximately ~~7.1%~~6.8% in ~~October 2022,~~July 2023, an increase of approximately ~~390~~151 basis points compared to the same period in the prior year, according to Freddie Mac;

Non-GAAP Financial Measures. We have reported our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In addition, we have discussed our financial results using the non-GAAP measures described below.

A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP is set forth below.

Management believes ~~that~~ these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional means of analyzing the current period's results against the corresponding prior period's results. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin

We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin in evaluating the performance of our business, and we use each in the preparation of our annual operating budgets and as indicators of business performance and profitability. We believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin allow us to readily view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and identify strategies to improve operating performance.

We define ~~Adjusted~~ EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude (1) income tax expense (benefit), (2) interest expense, net, (3) depreciation and amortization expense, (4) amortization of customer relationship intangibles ~~(5)~~and trademarks. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted to exclude (1) expenses related to the acquisition of RSI Home Products, Inc. ("RSI acquisition") and the subsequent restructuring charges that the Company incurred related to the acquisition, ~~(6)~~(2) non-recurring restructuring charges, ~~(7)~~(3) net gain/loss on debt forgiveness and modification, (4) stock-based compensation expense, ~~(8)~~(5) gain/loss on asset disposals, ~~(9)~~(6) change in fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts, and ~~(10)~~(7) pension settlement charges. We believe Adjusted EBITDA, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, is useful for investors because management uses Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating the performance of our business.

We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.

Adjusted EPS per diluted share

We use Adjusted EPS per diluted share in evaluating the performance of our business and profitability. Management believes that this measure provides useful information to investors by offering additional ways of viewing the Company's results by providing an indication of performance and profitability excluding the impact of unusual and/or non-cash items. We define Adjusted EPS per diluted share as diluted earnings per share excluding the per share impact of (1) expenses related to the RSI acquisition and the subsequent restructuring charges that the Company incurred related to the RSI acquisition, (2) non-recurring restructuring charges, (3) the amortization of customer relationship intangibles and trademarks, (4) net gain/loss on debt forgiveness and modification, (5) pension settlement charges, and ~~(5)~~(6) the tax benefit of RSI acquisition expenses and subsequent restructuring charges, the net gain on debt forgiveness and modification and the amortization of customer relationship intangibles and trademarks. The amortization of intangible assets is driven by the RSI acquisition and will recur in future periods. Management has determined that excluding amortization of intangible assets from our definition of Adjusted EPS per diluted share will better help it evaluate the performance of our business and profitability and we have also received similar feedback from some of our investors.

Outlook. ~~The impact on~~Shifting our ~~financial results from material and logistical constraints in addition~~focus to the ~~availability, retention, and cost of labor continue to be uncertain.

We ~~expect~~are increasing our Adjusted EBITDA ~~margin~~expectation by $20 million to a range of $225 million to $245 million for fiscal 2024 (which includes the ~~full year~~now completed first quarter). The change in net sales and Adjusted EBITDA is highly dependent upon overall industry, economic growth trends, material constraints, labor impacts, interest rates and consumer behaviors. Adjusted EBITDA will also be impacted by one-time start-up costs for our plant expansions in Monterrey, Mexico and Hamlet, North Carolina, which are expected to occur in the second half of fiscal ~~2023 to be low double digits.~~ 2024.

Additional risks and uncertainties that could affect the Company's results of operations and financial condition are discussed elsewhere in this report, including under "Forward-Looking Statements," and elsewhere in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, ~~2022,~~2023, including under Item 1A. "Risk Factors," Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and Item 7A. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk."

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled ~~$44.8~~$89.7 million at ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, representing ~~an $22.5~~a $47.9 million increase from its April 30, ~~2022~~2023 levels primarily due to ~~$55.4~~$86.7 million cash provided by operations in the first ~~six~~three months of fiscal ~~2023~~2024 compared with cash used by operations of ~~$10.2~~$37.3 million in the same period of the prior year, ~~$9.5~~$13.8 million in payments to acquire property, plant, and equipment, and ~~$21.2~~$22.1 million of ~~net debt repayments.~~stock repurchases. The increase in the Company's cash from operating activities was driven primarily by an increase in net income and cash inflows from ~~accrued compensation and related expenses,~~ customer receivables, net, inventories, accrued marketing expenses and prepaid expenses and other ~~accrued expenses,~~assets, partially offset by cash outflows from accrued compensation and related expenses, income taxes, accounts payable and ~~prepaid expenses and~~ other ~~assets.~~accrued expenses. At ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, total long-term debt (including current maturities) was ~~$488.6~~$371.5 million. The Company's ratio of long-term debt to total capital was ~~37.0%~~29.2% at ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022,~~2023, compared with ~~39.6%~~29.7% at April 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

The Company's main source of liquidity is its cash and cash equivalents on hand and generally cash generated from its operating activities. The Company can also borrow ~~up to $500 million~~amounts under the Revolving Facility. ~~Approximately $239.4 million was available under this facility as of October 31, 2022.~~

On April 22, 2021, the Company amended and restated its prior credit agreement and on January 17, 2023 the ~~Prior Credit Agreement.~~Company entered into an amendment of such agreement to transition the applicable interest rate from LIBOR to SOFR, effective January 31, 2023. The amended and restated credit agreement (the "A&R Credit Agreement") provides for a $500 million revolving loan facility with ~~a $50 million~~a$50 sub-facility for the issuance of letters of credit (the "Revolving Facility") and a $250 million term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility"). Also on April 22, 2021, the Company borrowed the entire $250 million under the Term Loan Facility and approximately $264 million under the Revolving Facility to fund, in part, the repayment in full of the amounts then outstanding under ~~the Prior Credit Agreement~~its prior credit agreement and the complete redemption of its 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026. The Company is required to repay the Term Loan Facility in specified quarterly installments. The Revolving Facility and Term Loan Facility mature on April 22, 2026. Approximately $323.2 million was available under the Revolving Facility as of July 31, 2023.

The A&R Credit Agreement includes certain additional covenants, including negative covenants that restrict the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, create additional liens on its assets, make certain investments, dispose of its assets or engage in a merger or other similar transaction or engage in transactions with affiliates, subject, in each case, to the various exceptions and conditions described in the A&R Credit Agreement. The negative covenants further restrict the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to make certain restricted payments, including, in the case of the Company, the payment of dividends and the repurchase of common stock, in certain limited circumstances. ~~We were in compliance with all the covenants under the A&R Credit Agreement as of October 31, 2022.~~

As of October 31, 2022, $231.3 million was outstanding on the Term Loan Facility and $249.3 million was outstanding under the Revolving Facility. As of October 31, 2022, the applicable margin with respect to base rate loans and LIBOR loans was 0.50% and 1.50%, respectively, and the commitment fee was 0.15%.

See Note K — Loans Payable and Long-Term Debt for ~~further information around~~a discussion of interest rates under the A&R Credit Agreement and our ~~indebtedness and~~ compliance with ~~covenants.~~the covenants in the A&R Credit Agreement. We expect to remain in compliance with each of the covenants under the A&R Credit Agreement during fiscal 2024.

As of July 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

The Company's investing activities primarily consist of investment in property, plant and equipment and promotional displays. Net cash used for investing activities was ~~$11.0~~$14.2 million in the first ~~six~~three months of fiscal ~~2023,~~2024, compared with ~~$27.1~~$4.6 million in the comparable period of fiscal ~~2022.~~2023.

During the first ~~six~~three months of fiscal ~~2023,~~2024, net cash used by financing activities was ~~$22.0~~$24.6 million, compared with ~~$45.8~~$21.4 million in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The ~~decrease~~increase in cash used during the first ~~half~~three months of fiscal ~~2023~~2024 was primarily driven by ~~the repurchase~~$22.1 million of common stock repurchases, offset by a decrease in net debt repayments of ~~$25.0~~$0.6 million during the first three months of fiscal 2024 compared to $20.6 million of net debt repayments in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

On May 25, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $100 million of the Company's common shares. Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, or through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, at prices and on terms the Company deems appropriate and subject to the Company's cash requirements for other purposes, compliance with the covenants under the A&R Credit Agreement, and other factors management deems relevant. The authorization does not obligate the Company to acquire a specific number of shares during any period, and the authorization may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at the discretion of the Board. Management generally expects to fund any share repurchases using available cash and cash generated from operations. Repurchased shares will become authorized but unissued common shares. The Company ~~did not repurchase any~~repurchased $22.1 million of its common shares during the ~~second~~first quarter ~~or first six months~~ of fiscal ~~2023.~~2024. As of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022, $75.0~~2023, $52.9 million of funds remained available from the amounts authorized by the Board to repurchase the Company's common stock.

Cash flow from operations combined with accumulated cash and cash equivalents on hand are expected to be more than sufficient to support forecasted working capital requirements, service existing debt obligations and fund capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal ~~2023.~~2024.

Seasonal and Inflationary Factors

Our business has been subject to seasonal influences, with higher sales typically realized in our first and fourth fiscal quarters. General economic forces and changes in our customer mix have reduced seasonal fluctuations in revenue over the past few years. The costs of the Company's products are subject to inflationary pressures and commodity price fluctuations. The Company has generally been able, over time, to recover the effects of inflation and commodity price fluctuations through sales price increases.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no significant changes to the Company's critical accounting policies as disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The costs of the Company's products are subject to inflationary pressures and commodity price fluctuations. The Company has generally been able, over time, to recover the effects of inflation and commodity price fluctuations through sales price increases although there may be a lag in the recovery.

The A&R Credit Agreement includes a variable interest rate component. As a result, we are subject to interest rate risk with respect to such floating-rate debt. A 100 basis point increase in the variable interest rate component of our borrowings as of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 would increase our annual interest expense by approximately ~~$2.8~~$1.7 million. See Note K — Loans Payable and Long-Term Debt for further discussion.

In May 2021, we entered into interest rate swaps to hedge approximately $200 million of our variable interest rate debt. See Note L — Derivative Financial Instruments for further discussion.

The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts principally to offset currency fluctuations in transactions denominated in certain foreign currencies, thereby limiting our exposure to risk that would otherwise result from changes in exchange rates. The periods of the foreign exchange forward contracts correspond to the periods of the transactions denominated in foreign currencies.

The Company does not currently use commodity or similar financial instruments to manage its commodity price risks.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Senior management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022.~~2023. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of October 31, 2022 due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting involving ineffective information technology change management and risk assessment, control activities and monitoring activities related to new system implementation that were disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022 (our "2022 Annual Report").are effective.

During the quarter ended October 31, 2022, we continued to implement our remediation plans described in Part II, Item 9A of our 2022 Annual Report with respect to the material weakness concerning information technology change management, including the implementation of new and enhanced processes to ensure timeliness of review and approval for emergency and scheduler changes, the removal of developer access to database monitoring logs, and an update of the development deployment process to require additional approvals as appropriate.

During the quarter ended October 31, 2022, we also continue to evaluate available remediation options for an automated solution to the material weakness concerning control and monitoring activities related to new system implementation. However, we've taken actions to implement new and ongoing monitoring activities to mitigate the risks associated with privileged user access, as we continue to work towards a more permanent solution. We will continue to provide additional details concerning progress on our remediation plan for this material weakness in future periodic reports.

During the remainder of fiscal 2023, we are committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment and implementing measures designed to help ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weaknesses are remediated as soon as possible. Management will test and evaluate the implementation of the new processes established as a result of the remediation plans, and the related internal controls to ascertain whether they are designed and operating effectively to provide reasonable assurance that they will prevent or detect a material error in the financial statements. Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management believes the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at October 31, 2022 and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

~~Except as described above, there~~There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended ~~October~~July 31, ~~2022~~2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various suits and claims in the normal course of business all of which constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental to the Company's business. The Company is not party to any material litigation that does not constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental to its business. See Note P — Other Information for further discussion of the antidumping and countervailing duties investigation.

Management funded these share repurchases using available cash and cash generated from operations. Repurchased shares became authorized but unissued common shares. At July 31, 2023, $52.9 million of funds remained from the amounts authorized by the Board to repurchase the Company's common shares. The Company purchased a total of 328,295 common shares, for an aggregate purchase price of $22.1 million, during the first quarter of fiscal 2024 under the authorization pursuant to a repurchase plan intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
