EXPLANATORY NOTE

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (this “report”) is a combined quarterly report being filed separately by two registrants: Summit Materials, Inc. and Summit Materials, LLC. Each registrant hereto is filing on its own behalf all of the information contained in this report that relates to such registrant. Each registrant hereto is not filing any information that does not relate to such registrant, and therefore makes no representation as to any such information. We believe that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of Summit Materials, Inc. and Summit Materials, LLC into this single report eliminates duplicative and potentially confusing disclosure and provides a more streamlined presentation since a substantial amount of the disclosure applies to both registrants.

Unless stated otherwise or the context requires otherwise, references to “Summit Inc.” mean Summit Materials, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and references to “Summit LLC” mean Summit Materials, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The references to Summit Inc. and Summit LLC are used in cases where it is important to distinguish between them. We use the terms “we,” “our,” “us” or “the Company” to refer to Summit Inc. and Summit LLC together with their respective subsidiaries, unless otherwise noted or the context otherwise requires.

Summit Inc. was formed on September 23, 2014 to be a holding company. As of September 30, 2017,June 29, 2019, its sole material asset was a 96.5%97.0% economic interest in Summit Materials Holdings L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Summit Holdings”). Summit Inc. has 100% of the voting rights of Summit Holdings, which is the indirect parent of Summit LLC. Summit LLC is a co-issuer of our outstanding 8  1/2% senior notes due 2022 (“2022 Notes”), our 6 1/1/8% senior notes due 2023 (“2023 Notes”) and, our 5 1/1/8% senior notes due 2025 (“2025 Notes”) and our 6 1/2% senior notes due 2027 (“2027 Notes” and collectively with the 20222023 Notes and 20232025 Notes, the "Senior Notes"“Senior Notes”). Summit Inc.’s only revenue for the three and ninesix months ended September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 was that generated by Summit LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries. Summit Inc. controls all of the business and affairs of Summit Holdings and, in turn, Summit LLC.


CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “intends,” “trends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans, expectations or intentions. All statements made relating to our estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions.

amounts or otherwise noted)

1.SUMMARY OF ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Summit Materials, Inc. (“Summit Inc.” and, together with its subsidiaries, “Summit,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is a vertically-integrated construction materials company. The Company is engaged in the production and sale of aggregates, cement, ready-mix concrete, asphalt paving mix and concrete products and owns and operates quarries, sand and gravel pits, two cement plants, cement distribution terminals, ready-mix concrete plants, asphalt plants and landfill sites. It is also engaged in paving and related services. The Company’s three operating and reporting segments are the West, East and Cement segments.

Substantially all of the Company’s construction materials, products and services are produced, consumed and performed outdoors, primarily in the spring, summer and fall. Seasonal changes and other weather-related conditions can affect the production and sales volumes of its products and delivery of services. Therefore, the financial results for any interim period are typically not indicative of the results expected for the full year. Furthermore, the Company’s sales and earnings are sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions, weather conditions and to cyclical changes in construction spending, among other factors.

On September 23, 2014,

Summit Inc. was formed as a Delaware corporation to be a holding company. Its sole material asset is a controlling equity interest in Summit Materials Holdings L.P. (“Summit Holdings”). Pursuant to a reorganization into a holding company structure (the “Reorganization”) consummated in connection with Summit Inc.’s March 2015 initial public offering, Summit Inc. became a holding corporation operating and controlling all of the business and affairs of Summit Materials Holdings L.P. (“Summit Holdings”) and its subsidiaries and, through Summit Holdings, conducts its business.

Equity OfferingOn January 10, 2017, Summit Inc. raised $237.6 million, netowns the majority of underwriting discounts, through the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $24.05 per share. Summit Inc. used these proceeds to purchase an equal number of limited partnership interests inof Summit Holdings (see Note 9, Stockholders’ Equity). Summit Materials, LLC (“LP Units”Summit LLC”) and causedan indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Summit Holdings, to use a portionconducts the majority of the proceeds from the offering to acquire two materials-based companies for a combined purchase priceour operations. Summit Materials Finance Corp. (“Summit Finance”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of approximately $110 million in cash, with remaining net proceeds to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include, but is not limited to, funding acquisitions, repaying indebtedness, capital expenditures and funding working capital.

Summit LLC, has jointly issued our Senior Notes as described below.

Basis of Presentation—These unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures typically included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016.29, 2018. The Company continues to follow the accounting policies set forth in those audited consolidated financial statements.

Management believes that these consolidated interim financial statements include all adjustments, normal and recurring in nature, that are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2017,June 29, 2019, the results of operations for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 29, 2019 and June 30, 2017 and October 1, 20162018 and cash flows for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 29, 2019 and June 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016.

2018.

Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Summit Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. As a result of the Reorganization,reorganization into a holding company structure (the “Reorganization”), Summit Holdings became a variable interest entity over which Summit Inc. has 100% voting power and control and for which Summit Inc. has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits.

(1)

The January 2, 2016 balance of Summit Inc. Class A Shares of 50,881,636 is shown to reflect the retroactive application of 1,135,692 of Class A common stock issued as a stock dividend on December 28, 2016.

As a result of the Reorganization, Summit Inc. is Summit Holdings’ primary beneficiary and thus consolidates Summit Holdings in its consolidated financial statements with a corresponding noncontrolling interest elimination, which was 3.5% and 5.1% as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries represent a 20% ownership in Ohio Valley Asphalt, LLC. The Company attributes consolidated stockholders’ equity and net income separately to the controlling and noncontrolling interests. The Company accounts for investments in entities for which it has an ownership of 20% to 50% using the equity method of accounting. In October 2017, the Company acquired the 20% of Ohio Valley Asphalt, LLC held by noncontrolling interests, making it a wholly owned subsidiary.

Use of Estimates—Preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Such estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, valuation of deferred tax assets, goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, the tax receivable agreement ("TRA") liability, pension and other postretirement obligations and asset retirement obligations. Estimates also include revenue earned on contracts and costs to complete contracts. Most of the Company’s paving and related services are performed under fixed unit-price contracts with state and local governmental entities. Management regularly evaluates its estimates and assumptions based on historical


experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results can differ significantly from estimates made. Changes in estimates, including those resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment, are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements when the change in estimate occurs.

7


Business and Credit Concentrations—The Company’s operations are conducted primarily across 23 U.S. states and in British Columbia, Canada, with the most significant revenue generated in Texas, Utah, Kansas Utah and Missouri. The Company’s accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from customers within these areas. Therefore, collection of these accounts is dependent on the economic conditions in thosethe aforementioned states, as well as specific situations affecting individual customers. Credit granted within the Company’s trade areas has been granted to many customers, and management does not believe that a significant concentration of credit exists with respect to any individual customer or group of customers. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue in the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 29, 2019 or June 30, 20172018.


Revenue Recognition—We earn revenue from the sale of products, which primarily include aggregates, cement, ready-mix concrete and October 1, 2016.

asphalt, but also include concrete products and plastics components, and from the provision of services, which are primarily paving and related services, but also include landfill operations, the receipt and disposal of waste that is converted to fuel for use in our cement plants and underground storage space rental.

Products
We earn revenue from the sale of products, which primarily include aggregates, cement, ready-mix concrete and asphalt, but also include concrete products, net of discounts or allowances, if any, and freight and delivery charges billed to customers. Freight and delivery charges associated with cement sales are recorded on a net basis together with freight costs within cost of sales. Revenue for product sales is recognized when evidence of an arrangement exists and when control passes, which generally is when the product is shipped.
Services
We earn revenue from the provision of services, which are primarily paving and related services, but also include landfill operations, the receipt and disposal of waste that is converted to fuel for use in our cement plants, and underground storage space rental. Revenue from the receipt of waste fuels is recognized when the waste is accepted and a corresponding liability is recognized for the costs to process the waste into fuel for the manufacturing of cement or to ship the waste offsite for disposal in accordance with applicable regulations.
Revenue derived from paving and related services is recognized using the percentage of completion method, which approximates progress towards completion. Under the percentage of completion method, we recognize paving and related services revenue as services are rendered. The majority of our construction service contracts are completed within one year, but may occasionally extend beyond this time frame. We estimate profit as the difference between total estimated revenue and total estimated cost of a contract and recognize that profit over the life of the contract based on input measures. We generally measure progress toward completion on long-term paving and related services contracts based on the proportion of costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion. We include revisions of estimated profits on contracts in earnings under the cumulative catch-up method, under which the effect of revisions in estimates is recognized immediately. If a revised estimate of contract profitability reveals an anticipated loss on the contract, we recognize the loss in the period it is identified.
The percentage of completion method of accounting involves the use of various estimating techniques to project costs at completion, and in some cases includes estimates of recoveries asserted against the customer for changes in specifications or other disputes. Contract estimates involve various assumptions and projections relative to the outcome of future events over multiple periods, including future labor productivity and availability, the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, the cost and availability of materials, the effect of delayed performance, and the availability and timing of funding from the customer. These estimates are based on our best judgment. A significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of our contracts. We review our contract estimates regularly to assess revisions in contract values and estimated costs at completion. Inherent uncertainties in estimating costs make it at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change within the near term and over the life of the contracts. No material adjustments to a contract were recognized in the three and six months ended June 29, 2019.
Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings are composed principally of revenue recognized on contracts on the percentage of completion method for which billings had not been presented to customers because the amounts were not

billable under the contract terms at the balance sheet date. In accordance with the contract terms, the unbilled receivables at the balance sheet date are expected to be billed in following periods. Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings represent billings in excess of revenue recognized. Contract assets and liabilities are netted on a contract-by-contract basis.
Earnings per Share—The Company computes basic earnings per share attributable to stockholders by dividing income attributable to Summit Inc. by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic earnings per share that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock, or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would have shared in the Company’s earnings. Since the Class B common stock has no economic value, those shares are not included in the weighted-average common share amount for basic or diluted earnings per share. In addition, as the shares of Class A common stock are issued by Summit Inc., the earnings and equity interests of noncontrolling interests are not included in basic earnings per share.

Tax Receivable Agreement—AgreementWhen the Company purchases Class A limited partnership units of Summit Holdings (“LP Units for cash or LP UnitsUnits”) are exchanged for shares of Class A common stock of Summit Inc. or Summit Inc. purchases LP Units for cash, this results in increases in the Company’sSummit Inc.’s share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets, which increases the tax depreciation and amortization deductions that otherwise would not have been available to us.Summit Inc. These increases in tax basis and tax depreciation and amortization deductions are expected to reduce the amount of cash taxes that we would otherwise be required to pay in the future. On March 11, 2015,Prior to our initial public offering (“IPO”), we entered into a tax receivable agreement (“TRA”)TRA with the pre-IPO owners that requires us to pay the pre-IPO owners or their permitted assignees 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state, and local income tax that we actually realize (or,as a result of these exchanges. These benefits include (1) increases in the tax basis of tangible and intangible assets of Summit Holdings and certain other tax benefits related to entering into the TRA, (2) tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA, or (3) under certain circumstances such as an early termination of the TRA, we are deemed to realize)realize, as a result of the increases in tax basis in connection with exchanges by the pre-IPO owners described above and certain other tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA.

On a quarterly basis, we

We periodically evaluate the realizability of the deferred tax assets resulting from the exchange of LP Units for Class A common stock occurring during the period.  Our evaluation considers all sources of taxable income; all evidence, both positive and negative, is considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed for some portion or all of the deferred tax assets.stock. If the deferred tax assets are determined to be realizable, we then assess whether payment of amounts under the TRA have become probable. If so, we record a TRA liability ofequal to 85% of such deferred tax assets, and the remaining 15% as an increase to additional paid-in capital. If a deferred tax asset subject to the TRA is determined not to be realizable and therefore subject to a valuation allowance, we do not record a TRA liability for such deferred tax assets. In subsequent periods, we assess the realizability of all of our deferred tax assets, including the deferred tax assets subject to the TRA. Should we determine a deferred tax asset with a valuation allowance is realizable in a subsequent period, the related valuation allowance will be released and consideration of a corresponding TRA liability will be assessed. The realizability of deferred tax assets, including those subject to the TRA, is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those deferred tax assets become deductible and consideration of prudent and feasible tax-planning strategies.

The measurement of the TRA liability is accounted for as a contingent liability. Therefore, once we determine that a payment to thea pre-IPO ownersowner has become probable and can be estimated, the estimate of payment will be accrued.

Reclassification —  As of September 30, 2017, we reclassified $4.3 million from other assets to deferred tax assets, net in the December 31, 2016 consolidated balance sheet to conform to the current presentation. Further, we reclassified $58.1 million from other non-current liabilities to tax receivable agreement liability in the December 31, 2016 consolidated balance sheet to conform to the current presentation.

New Accounting Standards —In March 2017,February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-07,  Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit CostNo. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires thatlessees to recognize most leases on the service cost component be reported inbalance sheet. Lessees are required to disclose more quantitative and qualitative information about the same line item as employer compensation costs and that the other components of periodic pension costs be reported outside of operating income.leases than current U.S. GAAP requires. The ASU also restricts capitalization of costs to the service cost component. The

The Company early adopted this ASU asmodified retrospective approach provides a method for recording existing leases at adoption. In addition, we elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the beginningtransition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification. In addition, we elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the lease term for existing leases.

The most significant impact upon adoption was the recognition of fiscal year 2017,$36.8 million of operating lease right-of-use assets and $36.8 million operating lease liabilities. The standard had no material impact on a retrospective basis; accordingly, the Company reclassified $59,000 and $219,000 from product costour statement of revenue to other income in the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, respectively, and $98,000 and $252,000 from general and administrative expenses to other income in the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, respectively, to conform to the current year presentation.

Reflects goodwill from 20172019 acquisitions and working capital adjustments from prior year acquisitions.


The Company’s intangible assets are primarily composed of goodwill, mineral lease agreements and reserve rights. The assets related to mineral lease agreements reflect the submarket royalty rates paid under agreements, primarily for extracting aggregates. The values were determined as of the respective acquisition dates by a comparison of market-royalty rates. The reserve rights relate to aggregate reserves to which the Company has the rights of ownership, but does not own the reserves. The intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the leases. The following table shows intangible assets by type and in total:

Other—On January 15, 2015, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary in British Columbia, Canada entered into an agreement with HSBC for a (i) $6.0 million Canadian dollar (“CAD”) revolving credit commitment to be used for operating activities that bears interest per annum equal to the bank’s prime rate plus 0.20%, (ii) $0.5 million CAD revolving credit commitment to be used for capital equipment that bears interest per annum at the bank’s prime rate plus 0.90% and (iii) $0.4 million CAD revolving credit commitment to provide guarantees on behalf of that subsidiary. There were no amounts outstanding under this agreement as of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 or December 31, 2016.

7.FAIR VALUE

Fair Value Measurements—Certain acquisitions made by the Company require the payment of contingent amounts of purchase consideration. These payments are contingent on specified operating results being achieved in periods subsequent to the acquisition and will only be made if earn-out thresholds are achieved. Contingent consideration obligations are measured at fair value each reporting period. Any adjustments to fair value are recognized in earnings in the period identified.

The Company has entered into interest rate derivatives on $200.0 million of its term loan borrowings to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and will be subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The fair value of contingent consideration and derivatives as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was:

The fair value of contingent consideration was based on unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, including projected probability-weighted cash payments and an 11.0% discount rate, which reflects a market discount rate. Changes in fair value may occur as a result of a change in actual or projected cash payments, the probability weightings applied by the Company to projected payments or a change in the discount rate. Significant increases or decreases in any of these inputs in isolation could result in a lower, or higher, fair value measurement. The fair value of the cash flow hedges are based on observable, or Level 2, inputs such as interest rates, bond yields and prices in inactive markets. There were no material valuation adjustments to contingent consideration or derivatives as of September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016.

The fair value of debt was determined based on observable, or Level 2, inputs, such as interest rates, bond yields and quoted prices in inactive markets. The fair values of the deferred consideration and noncompete obligations were determined based on unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, including the cash payment terms in the purchase agreements and a discount rate reflecting the Company’s credit risk. The discount rate used is generally consistent with that used when the obligations were initially recorded.

Securities with a maturity of three months or less are considered cash equivalents and the fair value of these assets approximates their carrying value.

9.INCOME TAXES

Summit Inc.’s tax provision includes its proportional share of Summit Holdings’ tax attributes. Summit Holdings’ subsidiaries are primarily limited liability companies, but do include certain entities organized as C corporations and a Canadian subsidiary. The tax attributes related to the limited liability companies are passed on to Summit Holdings and then to its partners, including Summit Inc. The tax attributes associated with the C corporation and Canadian subsidiaries are fully reflected in the Company’s accounts.

Our income tax benefitexpense (benefit) was $483.6$16.7 million and $482.3$(11.3) million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. We recorded an income tax benefit in the three months ended September 30, 2017, primarily related to the release of the valuation allowance as discussed below, partially offset by an increase in deferred tax liabilities of approximately $29.6 million. Our effective income tax rate was higher in the third quarter of 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to the benefit associated with the release of the valuation allowance discussed below, the accrual of the TRA expense and depletion in excess of U.S. GAAP depletion recognized in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. During the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, our income tax expense (benefit) was $1.3$12.2 million and $(7.9)$(4.5) million in the three and six months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate for Summit Inc. differs from the federal rate primarily due to (1) the release in valuation allowance,state taxes, (2) tax depletion expense in excess of the expense recorded under U.S. GAAP, (3) the minority interest in the Summit Holdings partnership that is allocated outside of the Company and (4) various other items such as limitations on meals and entertainment, certain stock compensation and other costs.

The ultimate realization of deferredcosts and (5) unrecognized tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible,benefits as well as consideration of tax-planning strategies we may seek to utilize any net operating loss carryforwards scheduled to expire in the near future. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, including the deferred tax assets subject to the TRA described below, management determined that it was more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets would not be realized as of December 31, 2016. Given the seasonality of our business, in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the amount of cumulative income increased significantly, and represents the largest three month period for income generation in 2017. We expect to generate additional income in the fourth quarter of 2017, as well as in 2018 and for the foreseeable future that will allow us to utilize the deferred tax assets. As a result of this significant positive evidence, we determined that the deferred tax assets had become more likely than not of becoming realizable and therefore released the majority of the valuation allowance. The Company still retains a valuation allowance of $2.7 million as an offset to certain net operating loss deferred tax assets within the C corporation entities that the Company does not expect to be realized. Accordingly, we reduced the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets by $513.2 million as of September 30, 2017.

Our net operating loss carryforward deferred tax assets begin to expire in 2030 and are expected to reverse before expiration. Therefore, we have not given consideration to any potential tax planning strategies as a source of future taxable income to monetize those net operating loss carryforwards. The Company will continue to monitor facts and circumstances, including our analysis of other sources of taxable income, in the reassessment of the likelihood that the tax benefit of our deferred tax assets will be realized.

noted below.


As of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 2016, after the release of the valuation allowance referred to above,29, 2018, Summit Inc. had a valuation allowance of $2.7$27.9 million and $502.8$19.4 million, respectively, which relates to certain deferred tax assets in taxable entities where realization is not more likely than not.


Summit Inc. and its subsidiaries expect additional unrecognized tax benefits in 2019 that if recognized would affect the annual effective tax rate, and included that in its estimate of those amounts in its annual effective tax rate. We did not recognize interest or penalties related to this amount as it is offset by other attributes. No material interest or penalties were recognized in income tax expense during the three and six months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018. No uncertain tax benefits were recognized in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Tax Receivable Agreement—The Company is party to a TRA with thecertain current and former holders of LP Units and certain other pre-initial public offering owners (“Investor Entities”) that provides for the payment by Summit Inc. to exchanging holders of LP Units of 85% of the benefits, if any, that Summit Inc. actually realizes (or, under certain circumstances such as an early termination of the TRA, is deemed to realize) as a result of (1) increases in the tax basis of tangible and intangible assets of Summit Holdings and (2) the utilization of certain net operating losses of the Investor Entities and certain other tax benefits related to entering into the TRA, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA. As of December 31, 2016, we had a partial valuation allowance against all of our net deferred tax assets, including our net operating loss carryforwards.

In the ninesix months ended September 30, 2017, 1,255,266June 29, 2019, 17,500 LP Units were acquired by Summit Inc. in exchange for an equal number of newly-issued shares of Summit Inc.’s Class A common stock. These exchanges which occurred prior to the date of analysis of the realizability of our deferred tax asset, resulted in net new deferred tax assets of approximately $14.7 million, and an increase in our valuation allowance for those new$0.1 million. As we determined that the deferred tax assets. As a resultassets created from these exchanges are realizable and payment under the TRA is considered probable, we have recorded 85% of the analysis of the realizability of ourincrease in deferred tax assets as indicated above, we reduced the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, including those deferred tax assets subject to the TRA. Further, we determined the TRA liability to be probable of being payable and the remainder as such, we recorded 85% of the deferred tax assets subject to the TRA, or $489.2 million, as TRA liability.an increase in additional paid in capital. As of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 2016,29, 2018, we had recorded $548.9$309.7 million and $59.3$310.3 million of TRA liability, respectively, of which $1.1$0.6 million was classified as accrued expenses as of December 31, 2016.

Tax Distributions – The holders of Summit Holdings’ LP Units, including Summit Inc., incur U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on their share of any taxable income of Summit Holdings. The limited partnership agreement of Summit Holdings provides for pro rata cash distributions (“tax distributions”) to the holders of the LP Units in an amount generally calculated to provide each holder of LP Units with sufficient cash to cover its tax liability in respect of the LP Units. In general, these tax distributions are computed based on Summit Holdings’ estimated taxable income allocated to each holder of LP UnitsSummit Inc. multiplied by an assumed tax rate equal to the highest effective marginal combined U.S. federal, state and local income tax rate applicable to an individual or corporate resident in New York, New York (or a corporate residentYork. Summit Holdings did not make any tax distributions in certain circumstances). In the ninesix months ended September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and October 1, 2016, we made tax distribution payments of $0.1 million and $25.5 million, respectively. Of the $25.5 million ofin tax distribution payments madedistributions in the ninesix months ended October 1, 2016, $9.0 million was paid to holders of LP units, and $16.5 million was paid to Summit Inc.

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Summit Inc. and its subsidiaries had not recognized any liabilities for uncertain tax positions. The Company records interest and penalties as a component of the income tax provision. No material interest or penalties were recognized in income tax expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016.

10.    NET EARNINGS PER SHARE

2018.


8.EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average common shares outstanding and diluted net earnings is computed by dividing net earnings, adjusted for changes in the earnings allocated to Summit Inc. as a result of the assumed conversion of LP Units, by the weighted-average common shares outstanding assuming dilution.

11.LEASES

We lease construction and office equipment, distribution facilities and office space. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, including month to month leases, are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease expense for short-term leases is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term. For lease agreements entered into or reassessed after the adoption of ASC 842, we combine lease and nonlease components. While we also own mineral leases for mining operations, those leases are outside the scope of ASC 842. Assets acquired under finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment.

Many of our leases include options to purchase the leased equipment. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The components of lease expense were as follows:

12.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is party to certain legal actions arising from the ordinary course of business activities. Accruals are recorded when the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management expects that the ultimate resolution of all current pending or threatened claims and litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations financial position or liquidity. The Company records legal fees as incurred.

Litigation


In March 2018, we were notified of an investigation by the Canadian Competition Bureau (the “CCB”) into pricing practices by certain asphalt paving contractors in British Columbia, including Winvan Paving, Ltd. (“Winvan”). We believe the investigation is focused on time periods prior to our April 2017 acquisition of Winvan and Claims—The Company is obligated under an indemnification agreement entered intowe are cooperating with the sellers of Harper Contracting, Inc., Harper Sand and Gravel, Inc., Harper Excavating, Inc., Harper Ready Mix Company, Inc. and Harper Investments, Inc. for the sellers’ ownership interests in a joint venture agreement. The Company has the rights to any benefits under the joint venture as well as the assumption of any obligations, but does not own equity interests in the joint venture. The joint venture incurred significant losses on a highway project in Utah, which resulted in requests for funding from the joint venture partners and ultimately from the Company. Through September 30, 2017, the Company has funded $12.3 million. In the third quarter of 2017, the Company settled its remaining obligations under this agreement for $3.5 million, which was $0.8 million less than amounts previously accrued under the agreement.

CCB.


Environmental Remediation and Site Restoration—TheCompany’s operations are subject to and affected by federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations relating to the environment, health and safety and other regulatory matters. These operations require environmental operating permits, which are subject to modification, renewal and revocation. The Company regularly monitors and reviews its operations, procedures and policies for compliance with these laws and regulations. Despite these compliance efforts, risk of environmental liability is inherent in the operation of the Company’s business, as it is with other companies engaged in similar businesses and there can be no assurance that environmental liabilities or noncompliance will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

The Company has asset retirement obligations arising from regulatory and contractual requirements to perform reclamation activities at the time certain quarries and landfills are closed. As of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 2016, $21.129, 2018, $28.6 million and $18.8$26.9 million, respectively, were included in other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and $6.2$3.5 million and $5.1$4.1 million, respectively, were included in accrued expenses for future reclamation costs. The total undiscounted anticipated costs for site reclamation as of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 201629, 2018 were $72.5$90.2 million and $63.6$92.5 million, respectively.

Other—The Company is obligated under various firm purchase commitments for certain raw materials and services that are in the ordinary course of business. Management does not expect any significant changes in the market value of these goods and services during the commitment period that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. The terms of the purchase commitments generally approximate one year.

12.    SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

Supplemental


13.FAIR VALUE
Fair Value Measurements—Certain acquisitions made by the Company require the payment of contingent amounts of purchase consideration. These payments are contingent on specified operating results being achieved in periods subsequent to the acquisition and will only be made if earn-out thresholds are achieved. Contingent consideration obligations are measured at fair value each reporting period. Any adjustments to fair value are recognized in earnings in the period identified.
The Company has entered into interest rate derivatives on $200.0 million of its term loan borrowings to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. The interest rate derivative expires in September 2019. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow informationhedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and will be subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The fair value of contingent consideration and derivatives as follows:

The fair value of contingent consideration was based on unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, including projected probability-weighted cash payments and a 10.0% discount rate, which reflects a market discount rate. Changes in fair value may occur as a result of a change in actual or projected cash payments, the probability weightings applied by the Company to projected payments or a change in the discount rate. Significant increases or decreases in any of these inputs in isolation could result in a lower, or higher, fair value measurement. The fair value of the cash flow hedges is based on observable, or Level 2, inputs such as interest rates, bond yields and prices in inactive markets. There were no material valuation adjustments to contingent consideration or derivatives as of June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018.
Financial Instruments—The Company’s financial instruments include debt and certain acquisition-related liabilities (deferred consideration and noncompete obligations). The carrying value and fair value of these financial instruments as of June 29, 2019 and December 29, 2018 was:

The fair value of Contents

debt was determined based on observable, or Level 2, inputs, such as interest rates, bond yields and quoted prices in inactive markets. The fair values of the deferred consideration and noncompete obligations were determined based on unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, including the cash payment terms in the purchase agreements and a discount rate reflecting the Company’s credit risk. The discount rate used is generally consistent with that used when the obligations were initially recorded.

13.    SEGMENT INFORMATION

Securities with a maturity of three months or less are considered cash equivalents and the fair value of these assets approximates their carrying value.

14.SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has three operating segments: West; East;West, East and Cement, which are its reporting segments. These segments are consistent with the Company’s management reporting structure.

The operating results of each segment are regularly reviewed and evaluated by the Chief Executive Officer, theour Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM primarily evaluates the performance of itsthe Company’s segments and allocates resources to them based on a segment profit metric that we call Adjusted EBITDA, which is computed as earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, accretion, share-based compensation, and transaction costs, as well as various other non-recurring, non-cash amounts.


The West and East segments have several acquired subsidiaries that are engaged in various activities including quarry mining, aggregate production and contracting. The Cement segment is engaged in the production of Portland cement. Assets employed by each segment include assets directly identified with those operations. Corporate assets consist primarily of cash, property, plant and equipment for corporate operations and other assets not directly identifiable with a reportable business segment. The accounting policies applicable to each segment are consistent with those used in the consolidated financial statements.

The following tables display selected financial data for the Company’s reportable business segments as of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 201629, 2018 and for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 29, 2019 and June 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016:

In addition to supplying aggregates to customers, we use a portion of our materials internally to produce ready-mix concrete and asphalt paving mix, which may be sold externally or used in our paving and related services businesses. Our vertically-integrated business modelvertical integration creates opportunities to increase aggregates sales,volumes, optimize margin at each stage of production and provide customers with efficiency gains, convenience and reliability, which we believe providesgives us a competitive advantageadvantage.
Since our inception in the markets2009, we serve.

We have completed 61dozens of acquisitions which are organized into 12 operating companies that make up our three distinct operating segments—segments: West, East and Cement—spanning 22 U.S. states and British Columbia, Canada and 43 metropolitan statistical areas. Our highly experienced management team, led byCement, which are also our President and Chief Executive Officer, Thomas Hill, a 35-year industry veteran, has successfully enhanced the operations of acquired companies by focusing on scale advantages, cost efficiencies and price optimization to improve profitability and cash flow.

As of September 30, 2017, we had 3.3 billion tons of proven and probable aggregates reserves serving our aggregates and cement businesses and operated over 400 sites and plants, to which we believe we have adequate road, barge and/or railroad access.

Business Trends and Conditions

The U.S. construction materials industry is composed of four primary sectors: aggregates; cement; ready-mix concrete; and asphalt paving mix. Each of these materials is widely used in most forms of construction activity. Participants in these sectors typically range from small, privately-held companies focused on a single material, product or market to multinational corporations that offer a wide array of construction materials and services. Competition is constrained in part by the distance materials can be transported efficiently, resulting in predominantly local or regional operations. Due to the lack of product differentiation, competition for all of our products is predominantly based on price and, to a lesser extent, quality of products and service. As a result, the prices we charge our customers are not likely to be materially different from the prices charged by other producers in the same markets. Accordingly, our profitability is generally dependent on the level of demand for our products in the localmaterials and regional marketsproducts and our ability to control operating costs.


Our revenue is derived from multiple end-use markets including public infrastructure construction and private residential and nonresidential construction. Public infrastructure includes spending by federal, state, provincial and local governments for roads, highways, bridges, airports and other infrastructure projects. Public infrastructure projects have historically been a relatively stable portion of state and federal budgets. Residential and nonresidential construction

consists of new construction and repair and remodel markets. Any economic stagnation or decline, which could vary by local region and market, could affect our results of operations. Our sales and earnings are sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions and particularly to cyclical changes in construction spending, especially in the private sector. From a macroeconomic view, we see positive indicators for the construction sector, including upwardpositive trends in highway obligations, housing starts and construction employment. All of these factors should result in increased construction activity in the private sector. However, construction activity is not consistent across the United States. Certain of our markets are showing greater, more rapid signs of recovery.


Transportation infrastructure projects, driven by both federal and state funding programs, represent a significant share of the U.S. construction materials market. Federal funds are allocated to the states, which are required to match a portion of the federal funds they receive. Federal highway spending uses funds predominantly from the Federal Highway Trust Fund, which derives its revenue from taxes on diesel fuel, gasoline and other user fees. The dependability of federal funding allows the state departments of transportation to plan for their long termlong-term highway construction and maintenance needs. Funding for the existing federal transportation funding program extends through 2020. With the nation’s infrastructure aging, there is increased demand by states and municipalities for long-term federal funding to support both the construction of new roads, highways and bridges in addition to the maintaining the existing infrastructure. The U.S. President and his administration have called for, among other things, an infrastructure stimulus plan. However, there is currently a lack of clarity around both the timing and details of any such infrastructure plan and the impact, if any, it or other proposed changes in law and regulations may have on our business.

In addition to federal funding, state, county and local agencies provide highway construction and maintenance funding. Each of ourOur four largest states by revenue, (Texas,Texas, Utah, Kansas Utah and Missouri, which represented approximately 25%23%, 14%13%, 12% and 12%8%, respectively, of our total revenue in 2016) have funds whose revenue sources have certain constitutional protections2018. The following is a summary of key funding initiatives in those states:
According to the Texas Department of Transportation (“TXDOT”) total annual funding available for transportation infrastructure, including state and federal funding, is estimated to be approximately $13.9 billion in fiscal year 2019 (which commenced September 1, 2018), increasing to $14.3 billion by fiscal year 2020. Further, the 2019 Unified Transportation Program (“UTP”) plans for $75 billion to fund transportation projects from 2019 through 2028, which is up from the 2018 UTP of $71 billion and more than double the previous UTP, Proposition 1 and Proposition 7 funding initiatives. In July 2019, TXDOT released a preliminary 2020 UTP presentation that limit spendingproposes $76.9 billion in transportation funding through 2029. The funding available in any given year is separate and distinct from lettings, or the process of providing notice, issuing proposals, receiving proposals, and awarding contracts. In July 2019, the TXDOT updated its fiscal year 2019 state and local lettings estimate to transportation projects:

$8.7 billion, up 19.6% from $7.3 billion in fiscal year 2018, and provided a fiscal year 2020 estimate of $9.2 billion, a 4.9% annual increase. Longer-term, TXDOT has indicated a target of $8 billion per year in total state and local lettings.

·

Texas’ Unified Transportation Program plansIn February 2018, the federal government approved approximately $89 billion in relief funding related to a series of natural disasters, including Hurricane Harvey, which impacted our Houston market in the second half of 2017. Furthermore, in June 2019, Congress passed an additional $19.1 billion disaster aid package and released more than $4 billion to Texas that Congress originally allocated in early 2018. At the state-level, between December 2018 and January 2019, the Texas Land Commission and the City of Houston rolled out two federally funded programs, totaling $2.27 billion, assist to homeowners affected by Hurricane Harvey. In July 2019, the Texas Governor signed four bills into law aimed at bolstering the state’s emergency preparedness and disaster relief programs, including a framework that provides more than $1.6 billion for $70 billon to fundflood control projects and repairs across the state. We believe that the federal and state-level funding stemming from these legislative actions will result in the construction of significant new water and transportation projects from 2017 – 2026.

infrastructure in the Houston market.

In November 2014, Texas voters approved a ballot measure known as Proposition 1, which authorized a portion of the severance taxes on oil and natural gas to be redirected to the State Highway Fund each year.

o

In November 2015, Texas voters approved the ballot measure known as Proposition 7, authorizing a constitutional amendment for transportation funding. The amendment dedicates a portion of the state’s general sales and use taxes and motor vehicle sales and rental taxes to the State Highway Fund for use on non-tolled projects. Beginning in September 2017 (fiscal year 2018), if general state sales and use tax revenue exceeds $28 billion in a fiscal year, the next $2.5 billion will be directed to the State Highway Fund. Additionally, beginning in September 2019 (fiscal year 2020), if state motor vehicle sales and rental tax revenue exceeds $5 billion in a fiscal year, 35% of the amount above $5 billion will be directed to the State Highway Fund.

In fiscal year 2018 sales tax revenue exceeded $30.5 billion, and as such, fiscal year 2019 will be the first year that the full Proposition 7 funding, $2.5 billion, is transferred to TXDOT.

Kansas hasIn November 2014, Texas voters approved a 10‑ballot measure known as Proposition 1, which authorized a portion of the severance taxes on oil and natural gas to be redirected to the State Highway Fund each year. In September 2018, TXDOT announced that it anticipated that funding from Proposition 1 for fiscal year $8.22019 would be $1.37 billion, highway bill that was passedup from $734 million received in fiscal year 2018. Furthermore, in May 2010. In2019, the Texas Comptroller increased its fiscal year 2020 Proposition 1 transfer estimate to $1.7 billion and in June 2017, a bi-partisan coalition of Kansas legislators voted2019, the Texas State Legislature extended the sunset period on Proposition 1 to raise $1.2 billion in revenue by raising personal income taxes and other exemptions, reversing austerity measures put into place five years ago by the Kansas governor.  We anticipate additional funding will be made available to the Kansas Department of Transportation over the next 12-24 months as a result of this legislative action.

Utah’s transportation investment fund has $2.3 billion programmed for 2017 – 2022. In early 2017, Utah’s governor signed into law a measure to allow the state to issue up to $1 billion in highway general obligation bonds to accelerate funding for a number of projects that the Utah Transportation Commission has already approved. 

Utah’s transportation investment fund has $2.3 billion programmed for 2017 through 2022. In early 2017, Utah’s governor signed into law a measure to allow the state to issue up to $1 billion in highway general obligation bonds to accelerate funding for several projects that the Utah Transportation Commission already approved.

In May 2010, Kansas passed a 10-year $8.2 billion highway bill. In May 2018, a legislative task force was convened to evaluate the current transportation system’s condition and funding of the state’s transportation system. The task force released its formal report in January 2019, concluding that it is imperative that the State of Kansas provides consistent, stable funding in order to maintain a quality transportation system; highlighting the negative impacts of $2.1 billion in transfers out of the State Highway Fund since 2011; and recommending that the state legislature review new potential sources of additional funding, including increasing registration fees, motor fuels taxes and fees for oversize vehicles and implementing new fees specific to alternative-fuel vehicles. Based on the task force’s recommendations, in March 2019, the Kansas State Legislature approved the Governor’s fiscal year 2020 budget with $1.5 billion in transportation funding, a 32% increase from the $1.1 billion in fiscal year 2019, with the further plan to eliminate all transfers out of the State Highway Fund by 2023, starting with a $108 million reduction in fiscal year 2020 transfers. Furthermore, with the Kansas Department of Transportation budget, the highway program was allocated $546 million, an increase of 138% or $317 million from fiscal year 2017.

Missouri’s proposed 2020 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (“STIP”) increases funding to $4.6 billion for highway and bridge construction through 2024 from $4.5m in the 2019 STIP and $4.2 billion in the 2018 STIP.

Use and consumption of our products fluctuate due to seasonality. Nearly all of the products used by us, and by our customers, in the private construction and public infrastructure industries are used outdoors. Our highway operations and production and distribution facilities are also located outdoors. Therefore, seasonal changes and other weather-

26


relatedweather-related conditions, in particular extended rainy and cold weather in the spring and fall and major weather events, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, tropical storms and heavy snows, can adversely affect our business and operations through a decline in both the use of our products and demand for our services. In addition, construction materials production and shipment levels follow activity in the construction industry, which typically occurs in the spring, summer and fall. Warmer and drier weather during the second and third quarters of our fiscal year typically result in higher activity and revenue levels during those quarters. As a result of Hurricane Harvey, our business operations in the Houston area were temporarily interrupted during the third quarter of 2017. We expect our volumes in the Houston area to return to normal levels in the future.

We are subject to commodity price risk with respect to price changes in liquid asphalt and energy, including fossil fuels and electricity for aggregates, cement, ready-mix concrete and asphalt paving mix production, natural gas for hot mix asphalt production and diesel fuel for distribution vehicles and production related mobile equipment. Liquid asphalt escalator provisions in most of our private and commercial contracts limit our exposure to price fluctuations in this commodity. We often obtain similar escalators on public infrastructure contracts. In addition, we enter into various firm purchase commitments, with terms generally less than one year, for certain raw materials.

Backlog

Our products are generally delivered upon receipt of orders or requests from customers, or shortly thereafter. Accordingly, the backlog associated with product sales is converted into revenue within a relatively short period of time. Inventory for products is generally maintained in sufficient quantities to meet rapid delivery requirements of customers. Therefore, a period over periodperiod-over-period increase or decrease of backlog does not necessarily result in an improvement or a deterioration of our business. Our backlog includes only those products and projects for which we have obtained a purchase order or a signed contract with the customer and does not include products purchased and sold or services awarded and provided within the period. Subject to applicable contract terms, substantially all contracts in our backlog may be cancelledcanceled or modified by our customers. Historically, we have not been materially adversely affected by contract cancellations or modifications.

As a vertically-integrated business, approximately 25%20% of aggregates sold were used internally in our ready-mix concrete and asphalt paving mixes and approximately 72%63% of the asphalt paving mix were laid by our paving crews during the ninesix months ended September 30, 2017.June 29, 2019. Our backlog as of September 30, 2017,June 29, 2019, was 12.616.3 million tons of aggregates, 1.21.9 million cubic yards of ready-mix concrete, 2.44.4 million tons of asphalt and $350.9$541.7 million of construction services, which includes the value of the aggregate and asphalt tons and ready-mix concrete cubic yards that are expected to be sourced internally.


Financial Highlights

The principal factors in evaluating our financial condition and operating results as of and for the three and ninesix months ended September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 as compared to October 1, 2016, are:

·

Net revenue increased $94.2 million and $210.9 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, as a result of pricing and volume increases across our product lines, which includes contributions from our acquisitions.

·

Our operating income increased $25.5 million and $57.7 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, primarily due to increases in net revenue from acquisitions, and to a lesser extent, organic growth, partially offset by increases in the related costs of revenue. Our general and administrative expenses for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2017 are lower than the comparable periods in 2016. Excluding the $24.8 million of pre-IPO/legacy equity modification expenses in the nine month period October 1, 2016, our general and administrative expenses are essentially flat as a percentage of net revenue.

·

In June 2017, we issued $300.0 million of 5.125% senior notes due June 1, 2025 (the “2025 Notes”), resulting in proceeds of $295.4 million, net of related fees and expenses.

·

In January 2017, we raised $237.6 million, net of underwriting discounts, through the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $24.05 per share.

the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, and certain other highlights include:

·

During the third quarter of 2017, we reduced the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets by $513.2 million, resulting in the recordation of a deferred income tax benefit of $513.2 million. Further, as those deferred tax assets were also subject to our TRA, we recorded TRA expense of $489.2 million in the third quarter of 2017 as well. 

Acquisitions

In addition to ourNet revenue increased $3.4 million and $19.4 million in the three and six months ended June 29, 2019, respectively, primarily resulting from organic growth and contributions from our acquisitions.


Our operating income increased $3.1 million in the three months ended June 29, 2019, as decreases in cost of revenue offset increases in depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expenses. Our operating income decreased $3.0 million in the six months ended June 29, 2019, primarily due to higher levels of depreciation and amortization resulting from our acquisitions in 2018 and a new cement terminal in late 2018. Our general and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2019 were lower than the comparable period in 2018 primarily due to reduced stock-based compensation charges in 2019.
In March 2019, we continuedissued $300.0 million of 6.500% senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), resulting in net proceeds of $296.3 million, after related fees and expenses. The proceeds from the 2027 Notes were used to growredeem the $250.0 million of 8.500% senior notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”).
In February 2019, we entered into Incremental Amendment No. 4 to the Credit Agreement (as defined below) increasing the size of our business through acquisitions, completingrevolving credit facility to $345.0 million and extending the following transactions in 2017 and 2016:

Results of Operations

The following discussion of our results of operations is focused on the key financial measures we use to evaluate the performance of our business from both a consolidated and operating segment perspective. Operating income and margins are discussed in terms of changes in volume, pricing and mix of revenue source (i.e., type of product sales or service revenue). We focus on operating margin, which we define as operating income as a percentage of net revenue, as a key metric when assessing the performance of the business, as we believe that analyzing changes in costs in relation to changes in revenue provides more meaningful insight into the results of operations than examining costs in isolation.

Operating income (loss) reflects our profit from continuing operations after taking into consideration cost of revenue, general and administrative expenses, depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion and transaction costs. Cost of revenue generally increases ratably with revenue, as labor, transportation costs and subcontractor costs are recorded in cost of revenue. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue vary throughout the year due to the seasonality of our business. As a result of our revenue growth occurring primarily through acquisitions, general and administrative expenses and depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion have historically grown ratably with revenue. However, as organic volumes increase, we expect these costs as a percentage of revenue, to decrease. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue vary throughout the year due to the seasonality of our business. Our transaction costs fluctuate with the number and size of acquisitions completedlevel acquisition activity each year.

Tax Receivable Agreement Expense

InIncome, net


During the thirdsecond quarter of 2017,2019, we recorded $489.2 millionreduced the estimated liability related to an earnout provision for one of tax receivable agreement (“TRA”) expense. This estimateour operations in the East segment by $2.0 million. As the period of time to record this adjustment against the purchase accounting entries had passed, this adjustment was recorded based on the realization of our deferred tax assets subject to the TRA being more likely than not.

as other income.

Based on a release of the valuation allowance related to the TRA deferred tax assets discussed below, we further determined payment of those benefits has become probable under our TRA agreement. 

Income Tax Benefit

Expense (Benefit)


Our income tax benefitexpense (benefit) was $483.6$16.7 million and $482.3$(11.3) million in the three and ninesix months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. We recorded an income tax benefit in the three months ended September 30, 2017, primarily related to the release of the valuation allowance as discussed below, partially offset by an increase in deferred tax liabilities of approximately $29.6 million. Our effective income tax rate was higher in the third quarter of 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to the benefit associated with the release of the valuation allowance discussed below, the accrual of the TRA expenseJune 29, 2019, respectively, and depletion in excess of U.S. GAAP depletion recognized in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. During the three and nine months periods ended October 1, 2016, our income tax expense (benefit) was $1.3$12.2 million and $(7.9)$(4.5) million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. TheOur effective tax rate for Summit Inc. differs from the federal rate primarily due to (1) the change in valuation allowance,state taxes, (2) tax depletion expense in excess of the expense recorded under U.S. GAAP, (3) the minority interest in the Summit Holdings partnership that is allocated outside of the Company, and (4) various other items such as limitations on meals and entertainment, certain stock compensation and other costs.

costs and (5) unrecognized tax benefits.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible, as well as consideration of tax-planning strategies we may seek to utilize net operating loss carryforwards scheduledthat begin to expire in the near future. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, including the deferred tax assets subject to the TRA described below, management determined that it was more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets would not be realized as of December 31, 2016. Given the seasonality of our business, in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the amount of cumulative income increased significantly, and represents the largest three month period for income generation in 2017. We expect to generate additional income in the fourth quarter of 2017, as well as in 2018 and for the foreseeable future that will allow us to utilize the deferred tax assets. As a result of this significant positive evidence, we determined that the deferred tax assets had become more likely than not of becoming realizable and therefore released the majority of the valuation allowance. The Company still retains a valuation allowance of $2.7 million as an offset to certain net operating loss deferred tax assets within the C Corporation entities that the Company does not expect to be realized.  Accordingly, we reduced the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets by $513.2 million as of September 30, 2017.

2030.

As of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 2016,29, 2018, Summit Inc. had a valuation allowance of $2.7$27.9 million and $502.8$19.4 million, respectively, the remaining valuationwhich relates to certain deferred tax assets in taxable entities where realization is on certain net operating loss carryforwards.

Our Houston operations were negatively impacted by Hurricane Harvey in the third quarter of 2017. After temporary interruptions, our operations have resumed, although volumes are below comparable levels in prior periods. We expect our volumes in the Houston area to return to normal levels in the future. Our Austin operation operates a liquid asphalt terminal in the Houston area which was also damaged by Hurricane Harvey.Harvey in 2017. The terminal will be shut down for 6-9commenced limited operations in the third quarter of 2018. In 2019, in the six months while undergoing significant repairs.

Our reporting unit basedclaim, which is included in Austin, Texas, where the economy has been expanding, has seen new market entrants, one of which aggressively sought market share, which negatively impacted Adjusted EBITDA in the West segment in 2016. Our efforts to improve our profitability in that area are showing positive results in 2017, as organic volume growth has occurred in the first nine months of 2017 as compared to the same period a year ago. We will continue to monitor the effect of this activity to assess whether an event occurs that indicates the carrying amount of the Austin-based reporting unit may be impaired requiring a goodwill impairment analysis.

Theoperating loss and decrease in operating margin infor the three and nine month periods issix months ended June 29, 2019 was primarily due to increased salesflood levels on the Mississippi River, resulting in lower levels of purchased cementproduction due to extended plant shutdowns in 2019 which resulted in higher costs of revenue as less production costs were capitalized into inventory. Further, the lower production levels in the first half of 2019 as compared to prior periods. Operating margin for the nine months ended September 30, 20172018 also decreased slightlyresulted in higher depreciation expense as compared to the same period in 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity include cash on-hand, cash provided by operations, amounts available for borrowing under our senior secured credit facilities and capital-raising activities in the debt and capital markets. As of September 30, 2017,June 29, 2019, we had $287.1$67.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $500.2$323.6 million of working capital compared to $143.4$128.5 million and $244.4$330.9 million, respectively, at December 31, 2016.29, 2018. Working capital is calculated as current assets less current liabilities. There were no restricted cash balances as of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 or December 31, 2016.29, 2018. Our remaining borrowing capacity on our senior secured revolving credit facility was $218.9$329.8 million as of September 30, 2017,June 29, 2019, which is net of $16.1$15.2 million of outstanding letters of credit and is fully available to us within the terms and covenant requirements of our credit agreement governing the senior secured credit facilities (the “Credit Agreement”).  

Given the seasonality of our business, we typically experience significant fluctuations in working capital needs and balances throughout the year. Our working capital requirements generally increase during the first half of the year as we build up inventory and focus on repair and maintenance and other set-up costs for the upcoming season. Working capital levels then decrease as the construction season winds down and we enter the winter months, which is when we see significant inflows of cash from the collection of receivables.

Our acquisition strategy has historically required us to raise capital through equity issuances or debt financings. As of September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 2016,29, 2018, our long-term borrowings including the current portion without giving effect to original issue discount, totaled $1.8$1.9 billion and $1.5$1.8 billion, respectively, for which we incurred $25.6 million and $70.1$51.9 million of interest expense for the three and ninesix months ended September 30, 2017, respectively,June 29, 2019, and $21.8$25.6 million and $62.0$51.3 million for the three and ninesix months ended October 1, 2016, respectively. We remain in compliance with our debt covenants and, when we have made additional issuances of senior notes to fund acquisitions, we have complied with the incurrence tests in the indentures governing our senior notes. In addition, our cash flows provided by operating activities were $244.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, which is net of interest payments.June 30, 2018. Our senior secured revolving credit facility has been adequate to fund our seasonal working capital needs and certain acquisitions.acquisitions. We had no outstanding borrowings on the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2017.

June 29, 2019.

We believe we have access to sufficient financial resources from our liquidity sources to fund our business and operations, including contractual obligations, capital expenditures and debt service obligations, for at least the next twelve months. Our growth strategy contemplates future acquisitions for which we believe we have sufficient access to capital.


We and our affiliates may from time to time purchase our outstanding debt through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Purchases or retirement of debt, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Indebtedness

Please refer to the notes to the consolidated interim financial statements for detailed information about our long-term debt, scheduled maturities of long-term debt and affirmative and negative covenants, including the maximum allowable consolidated first lien net leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2017,June 29, 2019, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

At September 30, 2017June 29, 2019 and December 31, 2016, $1.829, 2018, $1.9 billion and $1.5$1.8 billion of total debt, respectively, without giving effect to original issuance discount, werewas outstanding under our respective debt agreements.

Tax Receivable Agreement

41


When the Company purchases LP Units for cash or LP Units are exchanged for shares of Class A common stock, this results in increases in the Company’s share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of Summit Holdings. These increases in tax basis may increase, for tax purposes, depreciation and amortization deductions and therefore reduce the amount of tax that Summit Inc. would otherwise be required to pay in the future. In connection with our IPO, we entered into a TRA with the holders of the LP Units and the pre-IPO owners that provides for the payment by Summit Inc. to exchanging holders of LP Units of 85% of the benefits, if any, that Summit Inc. actually realizes (or, under certain circumstances such as an early termination of the TRA is deemed to realize) as a result of (i) these increases in tax basis and (ii) our utilization of certain net operating losses of the pre-IPO owners and certain other tax benefits related to entering into the TRA, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA. The increases in tax basis as a result of an exchange of LP Units for shares of Class A common stock, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the TRA, are difficult to accurately estimate, as they will vary depending onupon a number of factors, including the timing of the exchanges, the price of our Class A common stock at the time of the exchange, the extent to which the exchanges are taxable, the amount of net operating losses, and the amount and timing of our income.

income and the effective tax rate.

We anticipate funding payments under the TRA agreement from cash flows from operations, available cash and available borrowings under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facilities.

As of June 29, 2019, we had accrued $309.7 million as TRA liability in our consolidated financial statements. We do not expect significant payments on our TRA liability to occur within the next twelve months.

Based upon a $32.03$19.25 per share price of our Class A common stock, the closing price of our stock on Septemberthe last trading day of the three months ended June 29, 2017,2019, and a contractually defined discount rate of 2.82%3.18%, we estimate that if Summit Inc. were to exercise its right to terminate the TRA, the aggregate amount required to settle the TRA would be approximately $495.7$276.4 million. Estimating the amount and the timing of payments that may be made under the TRA is by its nature difficult and imprecise, insofar as the amounts payable depends on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the timing of future exchanges, our stock price at the date of the exchange and the timing of the generation of future taxable income. The increases

in tax basis as a result of an exchange, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the TRA, will vary depending on a variety of factors.

As of September 30, 2017, we had accrued $548.9 million as TRA liability in our consolidated financial statements. We do not expect payments on our TRA liability to occur within the next twelve months.


Commitments and contingencies

We are party to certain legal actions arising from the ordinary course of business activities. Accruals are recorded when the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management expects that the ultimate resolution of all pending or threatened claims and litigation will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations financial position or liquidity. We record legal fees as incurred.

Litigation and Claims—We are obligated under an indemnification agreement entered into with the sellers of Harper Contracting for the sellers’ ownership interests in a joint venture agreement. We have the rights to any benefits under the joint venture as well as the assumption of any obligations, but do not own equity interests in the joint venture. The joint venture incurred significant losses on a highway project in Utah, which resulted in requests for funding from the joint venture partners and ultimately from us. Through September 30, 2017, we have funded $12.3 million. In the third quarter of 2017, we settled our remaining obligations under this agreement for $3.5 million, which was $0.8 million less than amounts previously accrued under the agreement.

Environmental Remediation—Our operations are subject to and affected by federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations relating to the environment, health and safety and other regulatory matters. These operations require environmental operating permits, which are subject to modification, renewal and revocation. We regularly monitor and review its operations, procedures and policies for compliance with these laws and regulations. Despite these compliance efforts, risk of environmental liability is inherent in the operation of our business, as it is with other companies engaged in similar businesses and there can be no assurance that environmental liabilities and noncompliance will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Other—We are obligated under various firm purchase commitments for certain raw materials and services that are in the ordinary course of business. Management does not expect any significant changes in the market value of these goods and services during the commitment period that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition,

results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. The terms of the purchase commitments generally approximate one year.

Off-Balance sheet arrangements

As of September 30, 2017,June 29, 2019, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In August 2017,2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-12, Derivatives2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Hedging (Topic 815)Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements toCustomer’s Accounting for Hedging Activities, allowing more financialImplementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which reduces the accounting complexity of implementing a cloud computing service arrangement.

The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018,2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. TheEarly adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which narrows the definition of a business. This ASU provides a screen to determine whether a group of assets constitute a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated as acquisitions. If the screen is not met, this ASU (1) requires that to be considered a business, a set must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create an output and (2) removes the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. Although outputs are not required for a set to be a business, outputs generally are a key element of a business; therefore, the FASB has developed more stringent criteria for sets without outputs. The ASU is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which will result in lessees recognizing most leases on the balance sheet. Lessees are required to disclose more quantitative and qualitative information about their leases than current U.S. GAAP requires. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018.permitted.

The ASU will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAPis effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and provides that an entity recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflectsinterim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This update also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timingrequirements and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from costs incurredare beginning to obtain or fulfill a contract. In July 2015, the FASB postponed the effective date of the new revenue standard by one year to the first quarter of 2018. In applying these ASUs, an entity is permitted to use either the full retrospective or cumulative effect transition approach. We plan to adopt these ASU’s using the cumulative effect transition approach. While we are currently evaluatingassess the impact of adoption of these standards on our consolidated financial statements, we expect to identify similar performance obligations compared with the deliverables and separate units of account we have identified under existing accounting standards. As a result, we do not expect the adoption of these ASU’s to have a material impact on our consolidated statements of operations.

Non-GAAP Performance Measures

We evaluate our operating performance using metrics that we refer to as “Adjusted EBITDA,” "Adjusted“Adjusted Cash Gross Profit"Profit” and “Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin” which are not defined by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to earnings measures defined by U.S. GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, adjusted to exclude accretion, loss on debt financings, loss from discontinued operationsgain on sale of business, transaction costs and certain non-cash and non-operating items. We define Adjusted Cash Gross Profit as operating income before general and administrative expenses, depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion and transaction costs and Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin as Adjusted Cash Gross Profit as a percentage of net revenue.

43


We present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Cash Gross Profit and Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin for the convenience of investment professionals who use such metrics in their analyses. The investment community often uses these metrics to assess the operating performance of a company’s business and to provide a consistent comparison of performance from period to period. We use these metrics, among others, to assess the operating performance of our individual segments and the consolidated company.


Non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it may not be possible to compare such financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

The reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA is based on the financial results of Summit Inc. and its subsidiaries, which was $0.3 million$0.1 and $0.8$0.3 million less than Summit LLC and its subsidiaries in the three and ninesix months ended October 1, 2016,June 29, 2019, respectively, and $0.2 million and $0.7$0.4 million less in the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2018, respectively, due to interest expense associated with a deferred consideration obligation, which is an obligation of Summit Holdings and is thus excluded from Summit LLC’s consolidated interest expense.

(2)In the three and six months ended June 29, 2019, we negotiated a $2.0 million reduction in the amount of a contingent liability from one of our acquisitions. In the six months ended June 30, 2018, we negotiated a $6.9 million reduction in the amount of a contingent liability from one of our acquisitions. As we had passed the period to revise the opening balance sheet for this acquisition, the adjustment was recorded in the respective period as other income.

TheseConsequently, these marketplaces could experience lower levels of economic activity in an environment of rising interest rates or escalating costs. For a discussion of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, please refer to the Annual Report from which our exposure to market risk has not materially changed.

PartPART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.LEGAL1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are party to certain legal actions arising from the ordinary course of business activities. Accruals are recorded when the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management expects that the ultimate resolution of all current pending or threatened claims and litigation will not have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

In March 2018, we were notified of an investigation by the Canadian Competition Bureau (the “CCB”) into pricing practices by certain asphalt paving contractors in British Columbia, including Winvan Paving, Ltd. (“Winvan”). We believe the investigation is focused on time periods prior to our April 2017 acquisition of Winvan and we are cooperating with the CCB. Although we currently do not believe this matter will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, we are not able to predict the ultimate outcome or cost of the investigation at this time.

ITEM  1A.RISK1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report which could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results or liquidity or future results. The risks described in the Annual Report are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that it currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Annual Report.
