Significant Accounting Policies

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016,October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, 2021-08, Compensation-Stock CompensationBusiness Combinations (Topic 718)805): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”Accounting for Contract Assets and Contact Liabilities from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2016-09”2021-08”), which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both public. The guidance requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and nonpublic entities, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeituresmeasure contract assets and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classificationliabilities in the statement of cash flows.accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) rather than at fair value. The Company adopted ASU 2016-092021-08 on a prospective basis when it became effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 on a prospective basis and as such, the Company’s prior year presentation has not changed. The primary impact of the adoption was the recognition of excess tax benefits as a component of Income tax expense on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. As a result, excess tax benefits of $0.4 million and $2.5 million were recognized in Income tax expense for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively. Historically, these amounts were recorded as Additional paid-in capital in Stockholders’ equity on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also elected to adopt the cash flow presentation of the excess tax benefits prospectively commencing in the first quarter of 2017. The Company now presents excess tax benefits or tax deficiencies within operating cash flows versus financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Additionally, the Company elected to account for forfeitures of share-based payments as they occur and there was no material financial impact as a result. None of the other provisions in ASU 2016-09 had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory” (“ASU 2015-11”), which requires entities to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value rather than at the lower of cost or market. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The Company adopted ASU 2015-11 when it became effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017.2023. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”), which eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure a goodwill impairment charge (also known as Step 2 under the current guidance). Rather, the measurement of a goodwill impairment charge will be based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying value over its fair value (Step 1 under the current guidance). ASU 2017-04 will be effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after January 1, 2017. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 in July 2017 with its annual goodwill impairment test. The adoption of ASU 2017-042021-08 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2017,March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”), as amended in January 2021 by ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope” (“ASU 2021-01”), and Hedgingin December 2022 by ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 815)848): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging ActivitiesDeferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848” (“ASU 2017-12”2022-06”), which seeks.
ASU 2020-04 provided optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to improve the financial reporting ofcontracts, hedging relationships, to better portrayand other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria were met.
ASU 2021-01 amended the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. Additionally, ASU 2017-12 makes certain targeted improvements to simplify the applicationscope of the hedge-accounting guidance in current GAAPASU 2020-04 on the facilitation of the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments in ASU 2021-01 clarified that “certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting can apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition”. These amendments applied only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The expedients are applicable to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into on or before December 31, 2022. The guidance was permitted to be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occurred.
ASU 2022-06 deferred the expiration date of the reference rate reform relief guidance provided by ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 to December 31, 2024.

The Company previously elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions would be based matches the index for the corresponding derivatives. On March 27, 2023, the Company amended its term loans to implement a forward-looking interest rate based on the feedback received from preparers, auditors, users, and other stakeholders. ASU 2017-12 adds new disclosure requirements, amendssecured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) in lieu of LIBOR. On March 31, 2023, the Company amended the terms of its interest rate swaps to implement SOFR in place of LIBOR. Concurrent with the amendments to its interest rate swaps, the Company elected certain of the optional expedients provided in Topic 848 that allowed the Company to preserve the past presentation of its derivatives without de-designating the existing ones and removes the requirement for entities to disclose amounts of hedge ineffectiveness. In addition, an entity must now provide tabular disclosures about: both (i) the total amounts reported in the statement of financial performance for each income and expense line item that is affected by fair value or cash flow hedging and (ii) the effects of hedging on those line items; and the carrying amounts and cumulative basis adjustments of items designated and qualifying as hedged items in fair value hedges. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of ASU 2017-12. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 in the third quarter of fiscal year 2017.relationships. The adoption of ASU 2017-12Topic 848 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Refer to “Note 9. Long-Term Debt” and “Note 4. Fair Value Measurement and Interest Rate Swaps” for additional information regarding these amended agreements.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations related to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606.606 represent the aggregate transaction price allocated to performance obligations with an original contract term greater than one year that are fully or partially unsatisfied at the end of the period. Remaining performance obligations include the outstanding points balance related to the customer loyalty rewards program.

Additionally, the Company intends to make policy elections within the amended standard that are consistent with its current accounting. next 12 months.

Contract Balances

The Company continues to evaluate the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and controls. Based on its preliminary assessment, the Company has determined that the adoption of ASU 2014-09 may impact the timing of revenue recognition, through its incentive programs. The Company is also evaluating the principal versus agent considerations as it relates to certain arrangements with third parties that could impact the presentationbillings, and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, deferred revenue, and billings in excess of gross or net revenue reporting. Other areas which could be impacted may be identified as the Company continues its evaluation of ASU 2014-09. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2014-09recognized in the first quarterCompany’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract liabilities

As of 2018 usingJuly 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, contract liabilities were $13.0 million and $10.5 million, respectively, and were included within Accrued liabilities in the modified retrospective transition method.
In February 2016,accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The increase in the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which amendscontract liability balance during the guidance for recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosuressix months ended July 2, 2023 is primarily a result of lease arrangements and establishes a new ASC Topic 842. The amended standard will require recognition on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months as a lease liability and as a right-of-use asset. The lease liability is a lessee’s obligation to make leasecash payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis,received in advance of satisfying performance obligations, partially offset by $3.5 million of revenue recognized and the right-of-use asset is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the useexpiration of a specified asset for the lease term. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company commencing in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the amended guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which changes the way companies evaluate credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model to evaluate impairment, potentially resulting in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The new standard also requires enhanced disclosures, including the requirement to disclose the information used to track credit quality by year of origination for most financing receivables. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for the Company commencing in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The guidance must be applied using a cumulative-effect transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the amended guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”), to provide clarification on cash flow classificationpoints related to eight specific issues including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs and contingent consideration payments made after a business combination. The guidance in ASU 2016-15 should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. ASU 2016-15 becomes effective for the Company incustomer loyalty rewards program during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the amended guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.period.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory”(“ASU 2016-16”), which amends existing guidance to require entities to recognize income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset, other than inventory, when the transfer occurs. ASU 2016-16 will be effective for the Company commencing in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 using a modified retrospective method. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amended guidance; however, provisions of ASU 2016-16 are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash” (“ASU 2016-18”), which requires restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. Transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents are not reported as cash flow activities in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, using a retrospective transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the amended guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business(“ASU 2017-01”), to clarify the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as

acquisitions of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 provides a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities (collectively a “set”) is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. If the screen is not met, ASU 2017-01 requires that to be considered a business, a set must include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output. ASU 2017-01 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, and should be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the amended guidance; however, the provisions of ASU 2017-01 are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Scope of Modification” (“ASU 2017-09”), which provides clarity and reduces both diversity in practice and cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718 when there are changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments in ASU 2017-09 provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. ASU 2017-09 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the amended guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 3.4.    Fair Value Measurement and Interest Rate Swaps

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing an amount that would be received to sell an asset or the amount paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized into the following three-tiered value hierarchy:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, which are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data.

The hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The classification of fair value measurement within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement.

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, forward-starting interest rate swap contracts, and long-term debt. The variable interest rate on the long-term debt is reflective of current market borrowing rates. As such, the Company has determined that the carrying value of these financial instruments approximates fair value.
Interest Rate Swaps


The Company is subject to interest rate risk with regard to existing and future issuances of debt. The Company utilizes interest rate swap contracts to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in variable interest rates for future interest payments on its unsecured syndicated senior Term Loan Facility. In June 2017, theexisting debt. The Company entered into two forward-startingis party to interest rate swap contracts to convert the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate on portions of the borrowings under the term loans.

The Company recognizes any differences between the variable interest rate payments and the fixed interest rate settlements with the swap counterparties as an adjustment to interest expense over the life of the swaps. The Company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and records the estimated fair value of the swaps to Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. If it becomes probable the forecasted transactions will not occur, the hedge relationship will be de-designated and amounts accumulated in AOCI will be reclassified to Interest and other non-operating expenses, net in the current period.

On March 31, 2023, the Company amended the terms of its interest rate swaps to implement a forward-looking interest rate based on SOFR in place of LIBOR. Since the interest rate swaps were affected by reference rate reform, the Company applied the expedients and exceptions provided in Topic 848 to preserve the past presentation of its derivatives without de-designating the existing hedging relationships. All interest rate swap amendments were executed with the existing counterparties and did not change the notional amounts, maturity dates, or other critical terms of the hedging relationships. The interest rate swaps will continue to be net settled on a quarterly basis with the counterparties for the difference between the fixed rates and the variable rates based upon three-month Term Loan Facility. The contracts are scheduledSOFR (subject to become effectivea floor of 0.73839% for interest rate swap 3 and 0.23839% for interest rate swaps 7, 8, and 9) as applied to the notional amounts of each interest rate swap.

On March 23, 2021, the Company restructured the interest rate swap positions of its Forward-starting interest rate swaps 4, 5, and 6 to extend the terms to maturity using a strategy commonly referred to as a “blend and extend” in order to continue to manage its exposure to interest rate risk on borrowings under the term loans. Refer to “Note 9. Long-Term Debt” for additional information regarding the Company’s term loans. As a result of these transactions, all existing agreements for Forward-starting interest rate swaps 4, 5, and 6 at that time were amended and restructured as new agreements designated by the Company as interest rate swaps 7, 8, and 9 with the same counterparties. Each of these amended interest rate swap agreements blended the liability positions of the Forward-starting interest rate swaps into the interest rate swaps and extended the term of the hedged positions to mature on March 11, 201923, 2025. The interest rate swaps were net settled on a quarterly basis with the counterparties for the difference between the fixed rates and terminate on June 11, 2021. the variable rates based upon three-month LIBOR (subject to a floor of 0.50%) as applied to the notional amounts of each interest rate swap. Due to the size of the initial net investment amounts resulting from the termination values of the Forward-starting interest rate swaps that were rolled into the interest rate swap arrangements, interest rate swaps 7, 8, and 9 were determined to be hybrid debt instruments containing embedded at-market interest rate swap derivatives. As a result, the Company bifurcated the derivative instruments from the debt host instruments for accounting purposes. Refer to “Note 9. Long-Term Debt” for additional information regarding the Company’s hybrid debt instruments.

The Company recognizes the unrealized gains or unrealized losses for interest rate swap contracts as either assets or liabilities at fair value on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The interest rate swap contracts are subject to master netting arrangements. The Company has elected not to offset the fair value of assets with the fair value of liabilities related to these contracts.

As of July 2, 2023, the net fair value of the interest rate swaps in the amount of $11.1 million, net of taxes, was recorded in AOCI for the derivatives designated as hedging instruments. To the extent the interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments are determined to be ineffective, the Company recognizes the changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps in earnings.

For determining the fair value of the interest rate swap contracts, the Company uses significant observable market data or assumptions (Level 2 inputs) that market participants would use in pricing similar assets or liabilities, including assumptions about counterparty risk. The fair value estimates reflect an income approach based on the terms of the interest rate swap contracts and inputs corroborated by observable market data including interest rate curves. The Company recognizes the unrealized gains or unrealized losses as either assets or liabilities at fair value on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of October 1, 2017, the fair value changes of the forward-starting interest rate swaps in the amount of $0.2 million was recorded in Other long-term liabilities.


The Company will recognize any differences between the variable interest rate payments and the fixed interest rate settlements with the swap counterparties as an adjustment to interest expense over the life of the swaps. The Company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and records the changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps to Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of October 1, 2017, the fair value changes of the forward-starting interest rate swaps in the amount of $0.2 million was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a component of other comprehensive income. To the extent the interest rate swaps are determined to be ineffective, the Company recognizes the changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps in earnings. For the three and ninesix months ended October 1, 2017,July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022, there was no ineffectiveness recognized in earnings.

Failure of the swap counterparties to make payments would result in the loss of any potential benefit to the Company under the swap agreements. In this case, the Company would still be obligated to pay the variable interest payments underlying the debt agreements. Additionally, failure of the swap counterparties would not eliminate the Company’s obligation to continue to make payments under the existing swap agreements if it continues to be in a net pay position.

Note 6.     Capital7.    Leases
Capital
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of a contract. The Company leases consistingequipment and real estate including office space, branch locations, and distribution centers under operating leases. Finance lease obligations consist primarily of the Company’s vehicle fleet. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one year to five years or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. Certain leases include options to purchase the leased property. ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the net present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company's operating leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Finance lease agreements generally include an interest rate that is used to determine the present value of future lease payments. Variable lease payment amounts that cannot be determined at the commencement of the lease such as increases in lease payments based on changes in index rates or usage, are not included in the followingROU assets or lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred and recorded as variable lease expense. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

No further grants of awards will be made under the 2016 Plan; however, outstanding awards granted under the 2016 Plan will remain outstanding and will continue to be administered in accordance with the terms of the 2016 Plan and the applicable award agreements.

The RSUs and options granted to employees vest over a four-year period at 25 percent25% per year. The DSUs granted to non-employee directors vest immediately.

The fair value of each stock option award wasis estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes optionsoption pricing model. As of the start of fiscal year 2023, expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. Prior to fiscal year 2023, expected volatilities were based on the historical equity volatility of comparable publicly traded companies. The change in estimate was due to the length of time the Company’s common stock has been publicly traded now exceeding the expected term of the stock options. The expected term of stock options granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that stock options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rates utilized for periods throughout the contractual life of the stock options are based on the U.S. Treasury security yields at the time of grant. DSUs, RSUs, and RSUsPSUs have grant date fair values equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Share-based compensation expense is recognized in the financial statements based upon fair value on the date of grant. The compensation cost for stock options and RSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period. The Company recognized share-basedrecognizes compensation expense for PSUs when it is probable that the performance conditions will be achieved. The Company reassesses the probability of approximately $1.5 millionvesting at each reporting period and $4.5 millionadjusts its compensation cost accordingly.

Note 12. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
The CD&R Equity Investment
In connection with the CD&R Acquisition, the Company issued Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock to the CD&R Investor. On the day prior to the closing of the IPO, all of the then-outstanding Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock converted into shares of common stock, resulting in the issuance by the Company of an additional 25,303,164 shares of common stock.

The initial issuance of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock did not include a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) because the conversion price used to set the conversion ratio at the time of issuance was greater than the initial common stock price. The Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock was entitled to a 12% fixed, cumulative dividend payable quarterly in cash or in-kind. Dividends, to the extent paid-in-kind in the form of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, contained the same conversion price as the original issuance and in certain cases did include a BCF as of the dividend payment date. Since the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock did not have a fixed or determinable redemption date and was freely convertible at any time, the Company immediately amortized any BCF recognized through retained earnings. As disclosed in Note 1, on May 2, 2016, the Company paid a one-time special cash dividend to all existing stockholders as of April 29, 2016. CD&R Investor received $112.4 million in accordance with its right to participate in all distributions to common stock on an as-converted basis, as provided by its right as a preferred stockholder. The Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock converted to common stock in accordance with its terms on May 16, 2016. During the nine months ended October 2, 2016, the Company paid the cumulative dividends in cash; and accordingly, no BCF was recognized.


Note 13.    Earnings (Loss) Per Share


BasicThe Company computes basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed(“EPS”) by dividing netNet income (loss) attributable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock had the right to participate in all distributions declared and paid on the Company’s common stock on an as-converted basis, and was therefore considered a participating security. The Company calculatesincludes vested RSUs, DSUs, and PSUs that have not been settled in common shares in the basic earnings (loss) per share using the “two-class” method, and for the period ended October 2, 2016 did not allocate the loss available toweighted average number of common stockholders to the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock as those holders did not have a contractual obligation to share in net losses. In periods with income available to common stockholders, the Company would reduce income available to common stockholders to reflect the hypothetical distribution of undistributed earnings to the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with its contractual rights. The Company reduced income available to common stockholders and increased loss available to common stockholders to reflect the cumulative dividend on the Company’s Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock whether or not declared or paid during the period. See Note 12 for a detailed description of the terms of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock.

shares calculation. The Company’s computation of diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, which include in-the-money outstanding stock options and RSUs. PSUs are excluded from the calculation of dilutive potential common shares until the performance conditions have been achieved on the basis of the assumption that the end of the reporting period was the end of the contingency period, if such shares issuable are dilutive. Using the treasury stock method, the effect of dilutive securities includes the additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding based on the assumption that these potentially dilutive securities had been issued. The treasury stock method assumes proceeds from the exercise price of stock options and the unamortized compensation expense of RSUs and stock options are used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the period, thus reducing the dilutive effect. RSUs and stock options with assumed proceeds per unit above the Company’s average share price for the periods presented are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because the effect is anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of the weighted average number of diluted common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022:

Overview
SiteOne Landscape Supply, Inc. (collectively with all of its subsidiaries referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as “SiteOne,” the “Company,” “we,” “us”“us,” and “our”) indirectly owns 100% of the membership interest in SiteOne Landscape Supply Holding, LLC (“Landscape Holding”).

We also provide value-added consultative services to complement our product offeringofferings and to help our customers operate and grow their businesses.
Initial Public OfferingBusiness Environment and Trends
On May 17, 2016,Economic headwinds, which have resulted in declining prices and reduced demand, continued to be a challenge during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023. While weather conditions improved during the second quarter in certain of our key markets and helped drive volume growth for the three months ended July 2, 2023, particularly in our agronomic product lines, Organic Daily Sales growth was 2% for the first half of 2023 compared to 12% for the same period of 2022. We expect the current macroeconomic trends of higher interest rates, tightening financial markets, moderating price inflation, and deflation in select commodity products such as fertilizer, grass seed, and PVC pipe will continue to put pressure on Net sales growth for the remainder of 2023. Price contribution, which we completedestimate was a benefit of approximately 1% and 3% to our Organic Daily Sales growth for the IPO at a pricethree and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, is expected to decline in the public of $21.00 per share. In connection with the IPO, the CD&R Investor and Deere together sold an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The underwriters also exercised their option to purchase an additional 1,500,000 shares of common stock from the CD&R Investor and Deere, at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The CD&R Investor and Deere received allsecond half of the net proceedsyear. For the three and bore all commissionssix months ended July 2, 2023, we achieved Net sales growth of 11% and discounts8%, respectively, primarily due to contributions from the sale of our common stock. We did not receive any proceedsacquisitions, while Organic Daily Sales increased 4% and 2%, respectively, primarily from the IPO. On the day prior to the closing of the IPO, all of our then-outstanding Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock converted into shares of common stock, resulting in the issuance by us of an additional 25,303,164 shares of our common stock. The conversion of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock was accounted for from the date of conversion and was not retroactively adjusted in our financial statements.
Secondary Public Offerings

Gross margin decreased 170 basis points and 70 basis points for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, primarily due to the underwriters pursuant to an option to purchase additional shares. On December 6, 2016, the selling stockholders completed this offering of 10,350,000 shares of common stock at a price of $33.00 per share. We did not receive anyabsence of the proceeds fromlarge price realization benefit that was achieved in the aggregate 10,350,000 sharessame periods of common stock sold2022, partially offset by acquisitions with higher gross margins and lower freight costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased 18% and 22%, respectively, for the selling stockholders.three and six months ended July 2, 2023, primarily due to the impact of acquisitions, cost inflation, and higher operating expenses supporting our sales growth. Net income decreased 12% and 31%, respectively, for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, primarily due to higher SG&A and lower gross margins, partially offset by Net sales growth.

On April 25, 2017, we registeredLooking forward, the trend over the last three years of consumers spending more time at home and investing in their outdoor living spaces is expected to continue, although at lower levels. Sharp increases in home values, lack of affordable new homes, and higher mortgage interest rates have resulted in homeowners staying in their homes longer and upgrading their properties. The long-term outlook for the landscape supply industry remains strong driven by favorable population trends, housing demand, and increased interest in outdoor living. We are confident in the long-term growth opportunities of the landscape supply industry and our continued success providing our customers, suppliers, and shareholders exceptional value. We are the only national full product line wholesale distributor of landscape supplies in the United States. We are the industry leader and have a robust acquisition pipeline and a flexible business model.

Presentation
Our financial statements included in this report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We use a 52/53 week fiscal year with the fiscal year ending on the Sunday

nearest to December 31 in each year. OurThe fiscal years ending December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023 both include 52 weeks. Additionally, our fiscal quarters end on the Sunday nearest to March 31, June 30, and September 30, respectively. The three months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022 both included 13 weeks. The six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022 both included 26 weeks.
We manage our business as a single reportable segment. Within our organizational framework, the same operational resources support multiple geographic regions and performance is evaluated at a consolidated level. We also evaluate performance based on discrete financial information on a regional basis. Since all of our regions have similar operations and share similar economic characteristics, we aggregate regions into a single operating and reportable segment. These similarities include (i) long-term financial performance, (ii) the nature of products and services, (iii) the types of customers we sell to, and (iv) the distribution methods utilized. Further, all of our product categories have similar supply chain processes and classes of customers.
Key Business and Performance Metrics
We focus on a variety of indicators and key operating and financial metrics to monitor the financial condition and performance of our business. These metrics include:
Net sales. We generate netNet sales primarily through the sale of landscape supplies, including irrigation systems,supplies, fertilizer and control products, hardscapes, landscape accessories, nursery goods, hardscapesoutdoor lighting, and outdoor lightingice melt products to our customers who are primarily landscape contractors serving the residential and commercial construction sectors. Our netNet sales include billings for freight and handling charges, and commissions on the sale of control products that we sell as an agent. Net sales are presented net of any discounts, returns, customer rebates, and sales or other revenue-based tax.taxes.
Non-GAAP Organic Sales. In managing our business, we consider all growth, including the opening of new greenfield branches, to be organic growth unless it results from an acquisition. When we refer to Organic Sales growth, we include increases in growth from newly-opened greenfield branches and decreases in growth from closing existing branches but exclude increases in growth from acquired branches until they have been under our ownership for at least four full fiscal quarters at the start of the fiscal reporting period.
Non-GAAP Selling Days. Selling Days are defined as business days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, that our branches are open during the year. Depending upon the location and the season, our branches may be open on Saturdays and Sundays; however, for consistency, those days have been excluded from the calculation of Selling Days.
Non-GAAP Organic Daily Sales. We define Organic Daily Sales as Organic Sales divided by the number of Selling Days in the relevant reporting period. We believe Organic Sales growth and Organic Daily Sales growth are useful measures for evaluating our performance as we may choose to open or close branches in any given market depending upon the needs of our customers or our strategic growth opportunities. Refer to “Results of Operations – Quarterly Results of Operations Data” for a reconciliation of Organic Daily Sales to Net sales.

Cost of goods sold. Our costCost of goods sold includes all inventory costs, such as the purchase price paid to suppliers, net of any rebates received,volume-based incentives, as well as inbound freight and handling, and other costs associated with inventory. Our costCost of goods sold excludes the cost to deliver the products to our customers through our branches, which is included in selling,Selling, general and administrative expenses. Cost of goods sold is recognized primarily using the first-in, first-out method of accounting for the inventory sold.
Gross profit and gross margin. We believe that grossGross profit and gross margin are useful for evaluating our operating performance. We define grossGross profit as netNet sales less costCost of goods sold, exclusive of depreciation.sold. We define gross margin as grossGross profit divided by netNet sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (operating expenses). Our operating expenses are primarily comprised of selling,Selling, general and administrative costs, which include personnel expenses (salaries, wages, employee benefits, payroll taxes, stockstock-based compensation, and bonuses), rent, fuel, vehicle maintenance costs, insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, and professional fees. Operating expenses also include depreciation and amortization.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA. In addition to the metrics discussed above, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful for evaluating the operating performance and efficiency of our business. EBITDA represents our netNet income (loss) plus the sum of income tax (benefit), depreciation and amortization and expense, interest expense, net of interest income.income, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for items such as stock-based compensation expense, related party advisory fees,(gain) loss (gain) on sale of assets and termination of finance leases not in the ordinary course of business, financing fees, as well as other non-cash itemsfees and expenses related to acquisitions, and other non-recurring (income) loss. SeeRefer to “Results of Operations-QuarterlyOperations – Quarterly Results of Operations Data” for more information aboutregarding how we calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and the limitations of those metrics.

Key Factors Affecting Our Operating Results
In addition to the metrics described above, a number of other important factors may affect our results of operations in any given period.

Weather Conditions and Seasonality
In a typical year, our operating results are impacted by seasonality. Historically, our netOur Net sales and netNet income have been higher in the second and third quarters of each fiscal year due to favorable weather and longer daylight conditions during these quarters. Our netNet sales have been significantly lower in the first and fourth quarters due to lower landscaping, irrigation, and turf maintenance activities in these quarters, and historically, we have historically incurred net losses in these quarters. Seasonal variations in operating results may also be significantly impacted by inclement weather conditions, such as snow and ice storms, wet weather, and hurricanes, which not only impact the demand for certain products like fertilizer and ice melt, but also may delay construction projects where our products are used.
Industry and Key Economic Conditions
Our business depends on demand from customers for landscape products and services. The landscape supply industry includes a significant amount of landscape products, such as irrigation systems, outdoor lighting, lawn care supplies, nursery goods, and landscape accessories, for use in the construction of newly built homes, commercial buildings, and recreational spaces. The landscape distributionsupply industry has historically grown in line with rates of growth in residential housing and commercial building. The industry is also affected by trends in home prices, mortgage interest rates, home sales, and consumer spending. As general economic conditions improve or deteriorate, consumption of these products and services also tends to fluctuate. The landscape distributionsupply industry also includes a significant amount of landscapeagronomic products such as fertilizer, herbicides, and ice melt for use in maintaining existing landscapes or facilities. The use of these products is also tied to general economic activity, but levels of sales are not as closely correlated to construction markets.
Popular Consumer Trends

We generallytypically have annual supplier agreements, and while they typicallygenerally do not provide for specific product pricing, many include volume-based financial incentives that we earn by meeting or exceeding target purchase volumes.volume targets. Our ability to earn these volume-based incentives is an important factor in our financial results.

(1)In addition to our net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, we present Adjusted EBITDA in this report to evaluate the operating performance and efficiency of the Company’s business. EBITDA represents our Net income (loss) plus the sum of Income tax (benefit), Depreciation and amortization and Interest expense, net of interest income. Adjusted EBITDA is further adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, related party advisory fees, loss (gain) on sale of assets, other non-cash items, other non-recurring (income) and loss. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important supplemental measure of operating performance because:
(a)    In addition to our Net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, we present Adjusted EBITDA in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to evaluate the operating performance and efficiency of our business. EBITDA represents our Net income (loss) plus the sum of income tax (benefit) expense, interest expense, net of interest income, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, (gain) loss on sale of assets and termination of finance leases not in the ordinary course of business, financing fees, as well as other fees and expenses related to acquisitions, and other non-recurring (income) loss. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important supplemental measure of operating performance because:
Adjusted EBITDA is used to test compliance with certain covenants under our long-term debt agreements;
we believe Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an Adjusted EBITDA measure when reporting their results;
we believe Adjusted EBITDA is helpful in highlighting operating trends, because it excludes the results of decisions that are outside the control of operating management and that can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate, age and book depreciation of facilities, and capital investments;
we consider (gain) loss(gains) losses on the acquisition, disposal, and impairment of assets as resulting from investing decisions rather than ongoing operations; and
other significant non-recurring items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have a disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of our results.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of our liquidity or financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to netNet income, operating income, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. The use of Adjusted EBITDA instead of netNet income has limitations as an analytical tool. For example, this measure:
does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
does not reflect our interest expense, net, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt;
does not reflect our incomeIncome tax (benefit) expense or the cash requirements to pay our income taxes;
does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; and
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.
Management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on ourthe GAAP results and by using Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplement to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.

Longer-term projects or significant investments in acquisitions may be financed through borrowings under our credit facilities or other forms of financing and will depend on then-existing conditions.
In October 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization for up to $400.0 million of our common stock. We intend to purchase shares under the repurchase authorization from time to time on the open market at the discretion of management, subject to strategic considerations, market conditions, and other factors. The share repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and may be amended, suspended, or terminated by our Board of Directors at any time. During the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, we did not repurchase shares under the share repurchase program. As of July 2, 2023, the dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under the share repurchase authorization was $375.0 million.

Our gross long-term debt balance increased $29.3 million since January 1, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to funding the seasonal increase in inventory from acquisitionsour working capital and higher stocking levels.our acquisition investments. We have current maturities on our long-term debt of $4.1 million, which includes $2.6 million related to the term loan facility and $1.5 million related to the hybrid debt instruments. The projected interest payments on our debt only pertain to obligations and agreements outstanding as of July 2, 2023 and expected payments for agent administration fees. The projected interest payments are calculated for future periods through maturity dates of our long-term debt using interest rates in effect as of July 2, 2023. Certain of these projected interest payments may differ in the future based on changes in floating interest rates or other factors and events, including our entry into amendments of the term loans and the ABL Facility. The interest on long-term debt balance increased $11.1 million since January 1, 2023, primarily due to the increase in borrowings under the ABL Facility and rising interest rates. Refer to “Note 9.

On July 22, 2022, the ABL Borrowers, entered into the Seventh Amendment to the ABL Credit Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”). The Seventh Amendment amended and restated the ABL Credit Agreement in order to, among other things, (i) increase the aggregate principal amount of the commitments to $600.0 million, (ii) extend the final scheduled maturity of the revolving credit facility to July 22, 2027, (iii) establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR rate, (iv) replace the administrative and collateral agent, and (v) make such other changes as agreed among the ABL Borrowers and the lenders.

The interest rates on outstanding balances at October5.77336% as of January 1, 2017 range from 2.99% to 5.00%.2023. Additionally, the borrowersABL Borrowers paid a 0.25% and 0.375% commitment fee of 0.25% on the unfunded amount as of October 1, 2017July 2, 2023 and a commitment fee of 0.20% on the unfunded amount as of January 1, 2017, respectively. As of October 1, 2017, the outstanding balance on the ABL Facility was $193.7 million. The ABL Facility matures on October 20, 2020.2023.
The ABL Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments if the outstanding loans and letters of credit exceed either the aggregate revolving commitments or the current borrowing base, in an amount equal to such excess. Additionally, the ABL Facility is subject to various covenants, requiringincluding incurrence covenants that require the Company to meet minimum financial ratios, and additional borrowings and other corporate transactions may be limited by failure to meet these financial ratios. Failure to meet any of these covenants could result in an event of default under these agreements. If an event of default occurs, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under these agreements to be immediately due and payable, enforce their interest in collateral pledged under the agreement, or restrict the ABL Borrowers’ ability to obtain additional borrowings under these agreements. The ABL Facility is alsosecured by a first lien security interest over inventory and receivables and a second lien security interest over all other assets pledged as collateral.
The ABL Facility contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants are limited to the following: financial condition, fundamental changes, dividends and distributions, acquisitions, dispositions of collateral, payments and modifications of restricted indebtedness, negative pledge clauses, changes in line of business, currency, commodity and other hedging transactions, transactions with affiliates, investments, indebtedness, and liens.

Limitations on Distributions and Dividends by Subsidiaries
The ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions and dividends to us depends on their operating results, cash requirements, financial condition, and general business conditions, as well as restrictions under the laws of our subsidiaries’ jurisdictions.
The agreements governing the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the ABL Facility restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends, make loans, or otherwise transfer assets to us. Further, our subsidiaries are permitted under the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the ABL Facility and other indebtedness to incur additional indebtedness that may restrict or prohibit the making of distributions, the payment of dividends, or the making of loans to us.
Interest Rate Swaps
We are subject to interest rate risk with regard to existing and future issuances of debt. We utilize interest rate swap contracts to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in variable interest rates for future interest payments on our unsecured syndicated senior Term Loan Facility. In July 2017, we entered into two forward-startingexisting debt. We are party to interest rate swap contracts to convert the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate on portions of the borrowings under the term loans.
On March 31, 2023, we amended the terms of our interest rate swaps to implement a forward-looking interest rate based on SOFR in place of LIBOR. Since the interest rate swaps were affected by reference rate reform, we applied the expedients and exceptions provided in Topic 848 to preserve the past presentation of our derivatives without de-designating the existing hedging relationships. All interest rate swap amendments were executed with the existing counterparties and did not change the notional amounts, maturity dates, or other critical terms of the hedging relationships. The interest rate swaps will continue to be net settled on a quarterly basis with the counterparties for the difference between the fixed rates and the variable rates based upon three-month Term Loan Facility. TheSOFR (subject to a floor) as applied to the notional amounts of each interest rate swap.
During the first quarter of 2021, we amended and restructured certain of our interest rate swap contracts become effectiveusing a strategy commonly referred to as a “blend and extend”. In a blend and extend arrangement, the liability position of the existing interest rate swap arrangement is blended into the amended or new interest rate swap arrangement and the term to maturity of the hedged position is extended. We reclassified $5.9 million from Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities to long-term debt with $1.5 million classified as Long-term debt, current portion and $4.4 million classified as Long-term debt, less current portion on March 11, 2019our Consolidated Balance Sheets since the interest rate swap arrangements executed during the first quarter of 2021 were determined to be hybrid debt instruments containing embedded at-market swap derivatives. As of July 2, 2023, approximately $1.5 million was classified as Long-term debt, current portion and terminateapproximately $1.1 million was classified as Long-term debt, less current portion on June 11, 2021.our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We will recognize any differences between the variable interest rate payments and the fixed interest rate settlements from the swap counterparties as an adjustment to interest expense over the life of the swaps. We have designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and will record the changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps to Accumulated other comprehensive income(loss)income (loss) (“AOCI”) on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. If it becomes probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur, the hedge relationship will be de-designated and amounts accumulated in AOCI will be reclassified to Interest and other non-operating expenses, net in the current period. To the extent the interest rate swaps are determined to be ineffective, we will recognize the changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps in earnings.
Failure of the swap counterparties to make payments would result in the loss of any potential benefit to us under the swap agreements. In this case, we would still be obligated to pay the variable interest payments underlying the debt agreements. Additionally, failure of the swap counterparties would not eliminate our obligation to continue to make payments under the existing swap agreements if it continues to bethey were in a net pay position.
Limitations on DistributionsFor additional information, refer to “Note 1. Nature of Business and Dividends by SubsidiariesSignificant Accounting Polices”, “Note 4. Fair Value Measurement and Interest Rate Swaps”, and “Note 9. Long-Term Debt” in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
The ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions and dividends to us depends on their operating results, cash requirements and financial condition and general business conditions, as well as restrictions under the laws of our subsidiaries’ jurisdictions.
The agreements governing the Term Loan Facility and the ABL Facility (collectively, the “Credit Facilities”) restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends, make loans or otherwise transfer assets to us. Further, our subsidiaries are permitted under the terms of the Credit Facilities and other indebtedness to incur additional indebtedness that may restrict or prohibit the making of distributions, the payment of dividends or the making of loans to us.
