TREX COMPANY, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022

(Unaudited)

1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

Trex Company, Inc. (Trex, Company), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated on September 4, 1998. As of December 30, 2022, the Company operates in one reportable segment, Trex Residential Products (Trex Residential). Through December 30, 2022, Trex had one wholly-owned subsidiary, Trex Commercial Products, Inc. (Trex Commercial) and operated in two reportable segments, Trex Residential and Trex Commercial.

Trex Residential, the Company’s principal business based on net sales, is the world’s largest manufacturer of high-performance,

low-maintenance

wood-alternative decking and residential railing and outdoor living products and accessories, marketed under the brand name Trex

®

, with more than 30 years of product experience. A majority of its products are manufactured in a proprietary process that combines reclaimed wood fibers and scrap polyethylene. The principal executive offices are located at 2500 Trex Way, Winchester, Virginia 22601, and the telephone number at that address is

(540) 542-6300.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the instructions to Form

10-Q

and Article 10 of Regulation

S-X

and, accordingly, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, except as otherwise described herein) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances to conform to current year presentation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company for all periods presented. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. The Company’s results of operations are affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the cost to manufacture and distribute products, cost of raw materials, inflation, consumer spending and preferences, interest rates, the impact of any supply chain disruptions, economic conditions, and/or any adverse effects from global health pandemics and geopolitical conflicts. Towards the end of June 2022, the Company experienced a reduction in demand from its distribution partners, which the Company believed was primarily spurred by concerns over a potential easing in consumer demand due to rising interest rates, declining consumer sentiment and expectations of a general slowing in the economy. As a result, beginning in the third quarter of 2022 the Company’s channel partners met demand partially through inventory drawdown rather than reordering products and maintaining current inventories. This inventory recalibration was completed by year end.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, included in the Annual Report of Trex Company, Inc. on Form

10-K,

as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

3. SALE OF TREX COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS, INC.

On December 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of its wholly-owned subsidiary and reportable segment, Trex Commercial. The divestiture reflected the Company’s decision to focus on driving the most profitable growth strategy for the Company and its shareholders through the execution of its outdoor living strategy. The divestiture did not represent a strategic shift with a major effect on the Company’s operations. The results of operations of Trex Commercial are consolidated in the Company’s results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

4. RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In December 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU)

No. 2022-06

“Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848.” The amendments in this update defer the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU

No. 2020-04

“Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” These amendments provide temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. ASU

No. 2020-04

provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The FASB included a sunset provision within Topic 848 based on the expectations of when the LIBOR would cease being published intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. The guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024 and can be adopted as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. The amendments did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

5. INVENTORIES

Inventories valued at LIFO

(last-in,

first-out),

consist of the following (in thousands):

	September 30, 2023			December 31, 2022
Finished goods	$	43,180		$	107,114
Raw materials		52,255			69,292
Total FIFO (first-in, first-out) inventories		95,435			176,406
Reserve to adjust inventories to LIFO value		(35,051	)		(35,051	)
Total LIFO inventories	$	60,384		$	141,355

The Company utilizes the LIFO method of accounting related to its Trex Residential wood-alternative decking and residential railing products, which generally provides for the matching of current costs with current revenues. However, under the LIFO method, reductions in annual inventory balances cause a portion of the Company’s cost of sales to be based on historical costs rather than current year costs (LIFO liquidation). Reductions in interim inventory balances expected to be replenished by

year-end

do not result in a LIFO liquidation. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations are based, in part, on management’s estimates of expected

year-end

inventory levels and costs and may differ from actual results. Since inventory levels and costs are subject to factors beyond management’s control, interim results are subject to the final

year-end

LIFO inventory valuation.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company had a reduction in inventory that it does not expect will be replenished by year end. However, the Company estimates that the LIFO liquidation will not have a material impact on cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2023 and, accordingly, it did not impact the cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

6. PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER ASSETS

Prepaid expenses and other assets consist of the following (in thousands):

	September 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Prepaid expenses	$	6,859	$	10,787
Income tax receivable		—		23,979
Other		271		339
Total prepaid expenses and other assets	$	7,130	$	35,105

7. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

The carrying amount of goodwill at September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, was $14.2 million for Trex Residential. The Company’s intangible assets, purchased in 2018, consist of domain names for Trex Residential. At September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, intangible assets were $6.3 million and accumulated amortization was $2.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Intangible asset amounts were determined based on the

7

estimated economics of the asset and are amortized over the estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis over 15 years, which approximates the pattern in which the economic benefits are expected to be received. The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets periodically and considers events or circumstances that may warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that may indicate an impairment. Intangible asset amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022, was $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

8. ACCRUED EXPENSES AND OTHER LIABILITIES

Accrued expenses and other liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):

	September 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Sales and marketing	$	45,374	$	19,194
Compensation and benefits		24,470		8,646
Operating lease liabilities		7,409		7,488
Manufacturing costs		3,507		3,425
Income taxes		3,111		—
Other		5,048		5,311

Under the Credit Agreement, the Lenders agreed to provide the Company with one or more Revolving Loans in a collective maximum principal amount of $400,000,000 (Loan Limit) throughout the term, which ends May 18, 2027 (Term). Included within the Loan Limit are sublimits for a Letter of Credit facility in an amount not to exceed $60,000,000; and Swing Line Loans in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $20,000,000. The Revolving Loans, the Letter of Credit facility and the Swing Line Loans are for the purpose of raising working capital and supporting general business operations.

The Credit Agreement provides the Company, in the aggregate, the ability to borrow an amount up to the Loan Limit during the Term. The Company is not obligated to borrow any amount under the Loan Limit. Within the Loan Limit, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow at any time or from time to time while the Notes are in effect. Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) under the Revolving Loans and the Swing Line Loans accrue interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and Term SOFR Loans for the Revolving Loans accrue interest at the rate per annum equal to the sum of Term SOFR for such interest period plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Base Rate for any day is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by BOA as its prime rate, and (c) the Term SOFR plus 1.0% subject to certain interest rate floors. Repayment of all then outstanding principal, interest, fees and costs is due at the end of the Term.

The Company and BofA Securities as a sustainability coordinator, are entitled to establish specified key performance indicators (KPIs) with respect to certain environmental, social and governance targets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The sustainability coordinator and the Company may amend the Credit Agreement for the purpose of incorporating the KPIs and other related provisions, unless the Lenders object to such amendment on or prior to the date that is ten business days after the date on which such amendment is posted for review by the Lenders. Based on the performance of the Company and its subsidiaries against the KPIs, certain adjustments (increase, decrease or no adjustment) to otherwise applicable pricing will be made; provided that the amount of such adjustments shall not exceed certain aggregate caps as in the definitive loan documentation.

8

Under the terms of the Security and Pledge Agreement, the Company and Trex Commercial, subject to certain permitted encumbrances, as collateral security for the above-stated loans and all other present and future indebtedness of the Company owing to the Lenders grants to BOA, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders, a continuing security interest in certain collateral described and defined in the Security and Pledge Agreement but excluding the Excluded Property (as defined in the Security and Pledge Agreement).

Indebtedness On and After December

 22, 2022

. As of December 22, 2022, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (First Amendment) by and among the Company, as borrower, the guarantors party thereto; BOA, as a Lender, Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer; TD as lender and Syndication Agent; Regions Bank, PNC, and Wells Fargo (each, a Lender and collectively, the Lenders), arranged by BofA Securities as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, amending that certain Credit Agreement dated as of May 18, 2022, by and among the Company, as borrower, the guarantors party thereto, BOA, as a Lender, Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer and the other lenders identified therein (as so amended, the “Credit Agreement”). The First Amendment removes Trex Commercial as a guarantor to any and all indebtedness under the Credit Agreement.As a part of the First Amendment, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to provide for an additional Revolving B Loan (as hereinafter defined).

Under the First Amendment, the Lenders agreed to provide the Company with a Revolving B Loan consisting of one or more revolving loans in a collective maximum principal amount of $150,000,000 (Revolving B Loan Limit) throughout the term, which ends December 22, 2024 (Revolving B Loan Term). Previously, under the Credit Agreement, there was no Revolving B Loan. The First Amendment also provided that TD would serve as Syndication Agent.

As of December 22, 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to refer to this loan as the Revolving A Loan. The amended and restated Credit Agreement was made an Exhibit A to the First Amendment. All of the terms of the Credit Agreement apply to the Revolving B Loan. The Credit Agreement continues to include sublimits under the Revolving A Loan for a Letter of Credit facility in an amount not to exceed $60,000,000; and Swing Line Loans in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $20,000,000. The Revolving Loans, the Letter of Credit facility and the Swing Line Loans under Revolving A Loan are for the purpose of raising working capital and supporting general business operations.

The Notes provide the Company, in the aggregate, the ability to borrow an amount up to the Revolving A Loan Limit during the Revolving A Loan Term and Revolving B Loan Limit during the Revolving B Loan Term. The Company is not obligated to borrow any amount under the revolving loans. Within the respective loan limit, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow at any time or from time to time while the Notes are in effect. With respect to Revolving B Loans, for any day, the rate per annum is a tiered pricing based upon the Consolidated Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio. The applicable rate for Revolving B Loans that are Base Rate Loans range between 1.20% and 2.15% and the applicable rate for Revolving B Loans that are Term SOFR/Term SOFR Daily Floating Rate range between 0.20% and 1.15%.

The Company had $56.5 million in borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility and available borrowing capacity of $493.5 million at September 30, 2023. The weighted average interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 6.11% as of September 30, 2023.

Compliance with Debt Covenants and Restrictions

Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to certain loan compliance covenants. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2023. Failure to comply with the financial covenants could be considered a default of repayment obligations and, among other remedies, could accelerate payment of any amounts outstanding.

10. LEASES

The Company leases office space, storage warehouses, training and manufacturing facilities, and certain plant equipment under various operating leases. The Company’s operating leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 6 years. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022, total operating lease expense was $6.1 million and $6.3 million, respectively. The weighted average remaining lease term at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was 4.6 years and 5.2 years, respectively. The weighted average discount rate at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was 2.25% and 2.10%, respectively.

12. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Numerator:
Net income available to common shareholders	$	65,266	$	14,423	$	183,433	$	174,549
Denominator:
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		108,583,009		110,140,496		108,707,699		112,609,684
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock appreciation rights and options		80,256		85,396		72,580		101,967
Restricted stock		39,230		74,125		49,095		76,343
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		108,702,495		110,300,017		108,829,374		112,787,994

Diluted earnings per share	$	0.60	$	0.13	$	1.69	$	1.55

10

Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares determined for the basic earnings per share computation plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method. The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the following potentially dilutive securities because the effect would be anti-dilutive:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Stock appreciation rights		86,250		47,303		95,467		41,627
Restricted stock		—		68,008		69,764		48,552

Stock Repurchase Program

On February 16, 2018, the Trex Board of Directors adopted a stock repurchase program of up to 11.6 million shares of its outstanding common stock (Stock Repurchase Program). From January 1, 2023 through May 3, 2023, Trex did not repurchase shares of its outstanding common stock under the Stock Repurchase Program. On May 4, 2023, the Trex Board of Directors adopted a new stock repurchase program (2023 Stock Repurchase Program) of up to 10.8 million shares of its outstanding common stock, and terminated the existing Stock Repurchase Program. This repurchase program has no set expiration date. During the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023, Trex did not repurchase shares of its outstanding common stock under the 2023 Stock Repurchase Program.

13. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

Trex Residential Products

Trex Residential principally generates revenue from the manufacture and sale of its high-performance,

low-maintenance,

eco-friendly

wood-alternative composite decking and residential railing products and accessories. Substantially all of its revenues are from contracts with customers, which are purchase orders of short-term duration of less than one year. Its customers, in turn, sell primarily to the residential market, which includes replacement, remodeling and new construction related to outdoor living products. Trex Residential satisfies its performance obligations at a point in time. The shipment of each product is a separate performance obligation as the customer is able to derive benefit from each product shipped and no performance obligation remains after shipment. Upon shipment of the product, the customer obtains control over the distinct product and Trex Residential satisfies its performance obligation. Any performance obligation that remains unsatisfied at the end of a reporting period is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. Any variable consideration related to the unsatisfied performance obligation is allocated wholly to the unsatisfied performance obligation, is recognized when the product ships and the performance obligation is satisfied and is included in “Accrued expenses and other liabilities, Sales and marketing” in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Trex Commercial Products

On December 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of its wholly-owned subsidiary and reportable segment, Trex Commercial. Prior to December 30, 2022, Trex Commercial generated revenue from the manufacture and sale of its modular and architectural railing and staging systems. All of its revenues were from fixed-price contracts with customers. Trex Commercial contracts had a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services were not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and was, therefore, not distinct.

For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022, net sales were disaggregated in the following tables by (1) market, (2) timing of revenue recognition, and (3) type of contract. The tables also include a reconciliation of the respective disaggregated net sales with the Company’s reportable segments (in thousands).

14. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

At the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company held on May 4, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved the Trex Company, Inc. 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (Plan). The Company’s board of directors unanimously approved the Plan on April 10, 2023, subject to stockholder approval. The Plan amends and restates in its entirety the Trex Company, Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (2014 Plan), which was last approved by the Company’s stockholders at the annual meeting held on April 30, 2014. The Plan, which will be administered by the compensation committee of the board of directors, provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and unrestricted stock, which are referred to collectively as “awards.” Awards may be granted under the Plan to officers, directors (including

non-employee

directors) and other employees of the Company or any subsidiary thereof, to any adviser, consultant or other provider of services to the Company (and any employee thereof), and to any other individuals who are approved by the board of directors as eligible to participate in the Plan. Only employees of the Company or any subsidiary thereof are eligible to receive incentive stock options. Subject to certain adjustments as provided in the Plan, the total number of shares of common stock permitted to be granted under the Plan was 4,000,000 shares at the time of adoption, and as of September 30, 2023, the total number of shares available for future grants was 3,984,956.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock-based compensation grants for the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

	Stock Awards Granted		Weighted-Average Grant Price Per Share
Time-based restricted stock units		91,742	$	58.67
Performance-based restricted stock units (a)		96,103	$	56.79
Stock appreciation rights		51,916	$	56.80

(a) Includes 85,044 of target performance-based restricted stock unit awards granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and adjustments of 1,413 and 9,646 to grants due to the actual performance level achieved for restricted stock and restricted stock units awarded in 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The fair value of each SAR is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing formula. For SARs issued in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022, the data and assumptions shown in the following table were used:

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022
Weighted-average fair value of grants	$	27.19		$	33.9
Dividend yield		0	%		0	%
Average risk-free interest rate		4.0	%		1.9	%
Expected term (years)		5			5
Expected volatility		49.50	%		44.85	%

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense ratably over the period from the grant date to the earlier of: (1) the vesting date of the award, or (2) the date the grantee is eligible to retire without forfeiting the award. For performance-based restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock units, expense is recognized ratably over the performance and vesting period of each tranche based on management’s judgment of the ultimate award that is likely to be paid out based on the achievement of the predetermined performance measures. For the employee stock purchase plan, compensation expense is recognized related to the discount on purchases. Stock-based compensation expense is included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The following table summarizes the Company’s stock-based compensation expense (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022			2023		2022
Stock appreciation rights	$	248	$	196		$	660	$	547
Time-based restricted stock and restricted stock units		1,098		1,012			2,904		2,818
Performance-based restricted stock and restricted stock units		1,425		(1,012	)		3,470		(5	)
Employee stock purchase plan		50		52			350		171
Total stock-based compensation	$	2,821	$	248		$	7,384	$	3,531

Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards as of September 30, 2023, was $12.5 million. The cost of these unvested awards is being recognized over the requisite vesting period of each award.

15. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was 25.3% and was comparable to the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, of 24.8%, which resulted in income tax expense of $62.1 million and $57.7 million, respectively.

1

3

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company realized $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of excess tax benefits from stock-based awards and recorded a corresponding benefit to income tax expense.

The Company analyzes its deferred tax assets each reporting period, considering all available positive and negative evidence in determining the expected realization of those deferred tax assets. As of September 30, 2023, the Company maintains a valuation allowance of $3.0 million against deferred tax assets primarily related to state tax credits it estimates will expire before they are realized.

The Company operates in multiple tax jurisdictions, and, in the normal course of business, its tax returns are subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Such examinations may result in future assessments by these taxing authorities, and the Company accrues a liability when it believes that it is more likely than not that benefits of tax positions will not be realized. The Company believes that adequate provisions have been made for all tax returns subject to examination. As of September 30, 2023, for certain tax jurisdictions tax years 2019 through 2022 remain subject to examination. Sales made to foreign distributors are not taxable in any foreign jurisdiction as the Company does not have a taxable presence in any foreign jurisdiction.

16. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Through December 30, 2022, the Company operated in two reportable segments. On December 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of its wholly-owned subsidiary and reportable segment, Trex Commercial. Subsequent to the sale of Trex Commercial, the Company operates in one reportable segment, Trex Residential:

• Trex Residential manufactures wood-alternative decking and residential railing and related products marketed under the brand name Trex ® . Trex Residential products are sold to distributors and home centers for final resale primarily to the residential market, which includes replacement, remodeling and new construction related to outdoor living products.

• Trex Commercial designed, engineered, and marketed modular and architectural railing and staging systems for the commercial and multi-family market, including sports stadiums and performing arts venues. Trex Commercial products were marketed to architects, specifiers, contractors, and others doing business within the commercial and multi-family market.

The Company’s reportable segments are determined in accordance with its internal management structure, which, through December 30, 2022, was based on residential and commercial sales activities and, subsequent to December 30, 2022, is based on its residential sales activities. The Company evaluates performance of each segment primarily based on net sales and earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). The Company uses net sales to assess performance and allocate resources as this measure represents the amount of business the segment engaged in during a given period of time, is an indicator of market growth and acceptance of segment products and represents the segment’s customers’ spending habits along with the amount of product the segment sells relative to its competitors. The Company uses EBITDA to assess performance and allocate resources because it believes that EBITDA facilitates performance comparison between the segments by eliminating interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization charges to income. The below segment data for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 includes data for its reportable segments (in thousands):

17. SEASONALITY

The operating results for Trex Residential have historically varied from quarter to quarter. Seasonal, erratic or prolonged adverse weather conditions in certain geographic regions reduce the level of home improvement and construction activity and can shift demand for its products to a later period. As part of its normal business practice and consistent with industry practice, Trex Residential has historically offered incentive programs to its distributors and dealers to build inventory levels before the start of the prime deck-building season in order to ensure adequate availability of its product to meet anticipated seasonal consumer demand. The seasonal effects are often offset by the positive effect of the incentive programs.

18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

If there is a breach of such warranties, the company has an obligation either to replace the defective product or refund the purchase price.

Trex Residential continues to receive and settle claims for decking products manufactured at its Nevada facility prior to 2007 that exhibit surface flaking and maintains a warranty reserve to provide for the settlement of these claims. Estimating the warranty reserve for surface flaking claims requires management to estimate (1) the number of claims to be settled with payment and (2) the average cost to settle each claim.

To estimate the number of claims to be settled with payment, the Company utilizes actuarial techniques to determine a reasonable possible range of claims to be received and the percentage of those claims that will ultimately require payment (collectively, elements). Estimates for these elements are quantified using a range of assumptions derived from claim count history and the identification of factors influencing the claim counts to determine its best estimate of future claims for which to record a related liability. The cost per claim varies due to a number of factors, including the size of affected decks, the availability and type of replacement material used, the cost of production of replacement material and the method of claim settlement.

The Company monitors surface flaking claims activity each quarter for indications that its estimates require revision. Typically, a majority of surface flaking claims received in a year are received during the summer outdoor season, which spans the second and third quarters. It has been the Company’s practice to utilize the actuarial techniques discussed above during the third quarter, after a significant portion of all claims has been received for the fiscal year and variances to annual claims expectations are more meaningful.

Average cost per claim experienced in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was lower than that experienced in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was elevated due to the closure of three large claims, and lower than the Company’s expectations for 2023. The number of incoming claims received in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was lower than the number of claims received in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and lower than the Company’s expectations for 2023. After evaluating the declining trend in incoming claims in its actuarial analysis, the Company decreased its estimate of the number of future claims to be settled with payment. As a result of the decrease in estimated future claims, in the three-month period ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a reduction of $3.8 million to its warranty reserve for the future settlement of surface flaking claims. The Company believes the reserve at September 30, 2023 is sufficient to cover future surface flaking obligations.

The Company’s analysis is based on currently known facts and a number of assumptions, as discussed above, and current expectations. Projecting future events such as the number of claims to be received, the number of claims that will require payment and the average cost of claims could cause the actual warranty liabilities to be higher or lower than those projected, which could materially affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company estimates that the annual number of claims received will continue to decline over time and that the average cost per claim will increase slightly, primarily due to inflation. If the level of claims received or average cost per claim differs materially from expectations, it could result in additional increases or decreases to the warranty reserve and a decrease or increase in earnings and cash flows in future periods. The Company estimates that a 10% change in the expected number of remaining claims to be settled with payment or the expected cost to settle claims may result in approximately a $1.1 million change in the surface flaking warranty reserve.

The Company also maintains a warranty reserve for the settlement of other residential product warranty claims and records the provision at the time of product sale.

The following is a reconciliation of the Company’s residential product warranty reserve (in thousands):

	Nine months Ended September 30, 2023

Legal Matters

The Company has lawsuits, as well as other claims, pending against it which are ordinary routine litigation and claims incidental to the business. Management has evaluated the merits of these lawsuits and claims and believes that their ultimate resolution will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or competitive position.

Arkansas Facility

In October 2021, the Company announced plans to add a third U.S.-based Trex Residential manufacturing facility located in Little Rock, Arkansas, that will sit on approximately 300 acres of land. The development approach for the new campus will be modular and calibrated to demand trends for Trex Residential outdoor living products. Construction began on the new facility in the second quarter of 2022, and in July 2022, the Company entered into a design-build agreement. As previously announced, the Company anticipates spending approximately $400 million on the facility and the budget for the design-build agreement is contained within this amount. Construction for the new facility will be funded primarily through the Company’s ongoing cash generation or its line of credit.

Trex Residential is the world’s largest manufacturer of high-performance composite decking and residential railing products, which are marketed under the brand name Trex^® and manufactured in the United States. With more than 30 years of product experience, we offer a comprehensive set of aesthetically appealing and durable, low-maintenance product offerings in the decking, residential railing, fencing and outdoor lighting categories. A majority of the products are eco-friendly and leverage recycled and reclaimed materials to the extent possible. Trex Residential decking is made in a proprietary process that combines reclaimed wood fibers and recycled polyethylene film, making Trex Residential one of the largest recyclers of plastic film in North America. In addition to resisting fading and surface staining, Trex Residential products require no sanding and sealing, resist moisture damage, provide a splinter-free surface and do not require chemical treatment against rot or insect infestation. Combined, these aspects yield significant aesthetic advantages and lower maintenance than wood decking and railing and ultimately render Trex Residential products less costly than wood over the life of the deck. Special characteristics (including resistance to splitting, the ability to bend, and ease and consistency of machining and finishing) facilitate installation, reduce contractor call-backs and afford consumers a wide range of design options. Trex Residential products are sold to distributors and home centers for final resale primarily to the residential market.

Trex offers the following products through Trex Residential:

Decking and Accessories Our principal decking products are Trex Transcend^® Lineage^™, Trex Transcend^®, Trex Signature^®, Trex Select^®, and Trex Enhance^®.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General. Our results of operations are affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the cost to manufacture and distribute products, cost of raw materials, inflation, interest rates, consumer spending and preferences, the impact of any supply chain disruptions, economic conditions, and any adverse effects from global health pandemics and geopolitical conflicts.

Towards the end of June 2022, Trex Residential experienced a reduction in demand from its distribution partners, spurred by concerns over a potential easing in consumer demand due to rising interest rates, declining consumer sentiment and expectations of a general slowing in the economy. As a result, beginning in the third quarter of 2022 Trex Residential’s channel partners met demand partially through inventory drawdown. The drawdown negatively impacted third quarter and fourth quarter 2022 sales. In response to this changed environment, Trex Residential immediately took measures to manage a production slowdown, including labor force reductions, production organization, as well as other cost actions.

Sale of Substantially All of the Assets of Trex Commercial Products, Inc. On December 30, 2022, we completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of our wholly-owned subsidiary and reportable segment, Trex Commercial, for net proceeds of $7.3 million. The divestiture of Trex Commercial reflects our decision to focus on driving the most profitable growth strategy for the Company and its shareholders through the execution of our outdoor living strategy. The divestiture did not represent a strategic shift with a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. As such, the results of operations of Trex Commercial are consolidated in the Company’s results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Net Sales. Net sales consist of sales, net of discounts. The level of net sales is principally affected by sales volume and the prices paid for Trex products. Trex Residential operating results have historically varied from quarter to quarter. Seasonal, erratic or prolonged adverse weather conditions in certain geographic regions reduce the level of home and commercial improvement and residential and commercial construction and can shift demand for our products to a later period. As part of our normal business practice and consistent with industry practice, we have historically provided our distributors and dealers of our Trex Residential products incentives to build inventory levels before the start of the prime deck-building season to ensure adequate availability of our product to meet anticipated seasonal consumer demand and to enable production planning. These incentives include payment discounts, favorable payment terms, price discounts, or volume rebates on specified products and other incentives based on increases in purchases as part of specific promotional programs. The timing of our incentive programs can significantly impact sales, receivables and inventory levels during the offering period.

Gross Profit. Gross profit represents the difference between net sales and cost of sales. Cost of sales consists of raw material costs, direct labor costs, manufacturing costs, subcontract costs and freight. Raw material costs generally include the costs to purchase and transport reclaimed wood fiber, reclaimed polyethylene, pigmentation for coloring our products, and commodities used in the production of railing and staging. Direct labor costs include wages and benefits of personnel engaged in the manufacturing process. Manufacturing costs consist of costs of depreciation, utilities, maintenance supplies and repairs, indirect labor, including wages and benefits, and warehouse and equipment rental activities.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The largest component of selling, general and administrative expenses is personnel related costs, which includes salaries, commissions, incentive compensation, and benefits of personnel engaged in sales and marketing, accounting, information technology, corporate operations, research and development, and other business functions. Another component of selling, general and administrative expenses is branding and other sales and marketing costs, which are used to build brand awareness. These costs consist primarily of advertising, merchandising, and other promotional costs. Other general and administrative expenses include professional fees, office occupancy costs attributable to the business functions previously referenced, and consumer relations expenses. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses may vary from quarter to quarter due, in part, to the seasonality of our business.

Below is the discussion and analysis of our operating results and material changes in our operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 (2023 quarter) compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 (2022 quarter), and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (2023 nine-month period) compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (2022 nine-month period).

Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared To The Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

Net Sales

	Three Months Ended September 30,				$ Change		% Change
	2023		2022

Total net sales	$	303,836	$	188,472	$	115,364		61.2	%
Trex Residential net sales	$	303,836	$	177,776	$	126,060		70.9	%
Trex Commercial net sales		N/A	$	10,696		N/A		N/A

Total net sales in the 2023 quarter were higher compared to net sales in the 2022 quarter resulting in an increase of $115.4 million, or 61.2%. The increase in net sales was substantially all due to increased volume which was the result of strong secular trends in the outdoor living category and by the non-recurrence of the channel inventory drawdown that occurred during the 2022 quarter.

Gross Profit

	Three Months Ended September 30,						$ Change		% Change
	2023			2022
	(dollars in thousands)
Cost of sales	$	172,941		$	142,264		$	30,677		21.6	%

Gross profit	$	130,895		$	46,208		$	84,687		183.3	%
Gross margin		43.1	%		24.5	%

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales, gross margin, was 43.1% in the 2023 quarter compared to 24.5% in the 2022 quarter. Excluding the $3.8 million dollar benefit from a reduction of the surface flaking warranty reserve, gross margin for the 2023 quarter was 41.8%. Excluding Trex Commercial, gross margin for the 2022 quarter was 25.4%. The increase in gross margin in the 2023 quarter was the result of higher volume, cost out initiatives, and positive plant performance. The 2022 quarter was negatively impacted by our channel partners inventory drawdown to rightsize their inventories and additional costs as we restructured our operations for reduced production levels.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

	Three Months Ended September 30,						$ Change		% Change

% of total net sales		14.7	%		14.2	%

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $17.7 million in the 2023 quarter. The increase was primarily related to a $10.6 million increase in personnel related expenses including incentive compensation. The 2022 quarter included a $2.9 million reduction in incentive compensation related to restructuring of our operations to support our channel partner inventory drawdown. Other changes to the 2023 quarter included a $5.8 million increase in branding expenses and a $1.5 million increase to other expenses.

Total EBITDA increased 222.4% to $99.4 million for the 2023 quarter compared to $30.8 million for the 2022 quarter. The increase in EBITDA was driven primarily by an increase in net sales and gross profit.

Trex Commercial net sales		N/A	$	35,058		N/A			N/A

Total net sales decreased by $14.9 million, or 1.6%, in the 2023 nine-month period compared to the 2022 nine-month period. The reduction in total net sales was the result of the divesture of Trex Commercial at the end of 2022. The $20.2 million, or 2.3%, increase in Trex Residential net sales was primarily due to the launch of premium performance products and their associated pricing designed to support the high end of the market.

¹  EBITDA represents net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). We have included data with respect to EBITDA because management believes it facilitates performance comparison between the Company and its competitors, and management evaluates the performance of its reportable segments using several measures, including EBITDA. Management considers EBITDA to be an important supplemental indicator of our core operating performance because it eliminates interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization charges to net income or loss. In relation to competitors, EBITDA eliminates differences among companies in capitalization and tax structures, capital investment cycles and ages of related assets. For these reasons, management believes that EBITDA provides important information regarding the operating performance of the Company and its reportable segments. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP and are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for our GAAP results.

Gross profit	$	381,771		$	338,498		$	43,273			12.8	%
Gross margin		42.5	%		37.0	%

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales, gross margin, was 42.5% in the 2023 nine-month period compared to 37.0% in the 2022 nine-month period. Excluding Trex Commercial, gross margin for the 2022 quarter was 38.1%. The increase in the 2023 nine-month period was primarily the result of cost efficiencies, positive plant performance and materials management. The increase was partially offset by lower absorption due to reduced production and higher depreciation and utilities.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $27.3 million in the 2023 nine-month period. The increase primarily related to a $19.9 million increase in personnel related expenses including incentive compensation, a $4.5 million increase in branding expenses, a $2.9 million increase in research and development expenses and other expenses.

Net Income and Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)² (dollars in thousands)

²  EBITDA represents net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). We have included data with respect to EBITDA because management believes it facilitates performance comparison between the Company and its competitors, and management evaluates the performance of its reportable segments using several measures, including EBITDA. Management considers EBITDA to be an important supplemental indicator of our core operating performance because it eliminates interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization charges to net income or loss. In relation to competitors, EBITDA eliminates differences among companies in capitalization and tax structures, capital investment cycles and ages of related assets. For these reasons, management believes that EBITDA provides important information regarding the operating performance of the Company and its reportable segments. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP and are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for our GAAP results.

Total EBITDA increased 7.5% to $285.3 million for the 2023 nine-month period compared to $265.4 million for the 2022 nine-month period. The increase in EBITDA was driven primarily by an increase in gross profit.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We finance operations and growth primarily with cash flows from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facilities, operating leases and normal trade credit terms from operating activities. As of September 30, 2023 we had $4.6 million of cash and cash equivalents.

Sources and Uses of Cash. The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023			2022
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	288,225		$	244,393
Net cash used in investing activities		(112,920	)		(108,118	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(182,986	)		(271,443	)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(7,681)		$	(135,168	)

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $288.2 million during the 2023 nine-month period compared to cash provided by operations of $244.4 million during the 2022 nine-month period. In general, the $43.8 million increase in cash provided by operating activities reflects higher earnings and reduced investment in working capital in the 2023 period. Specifically, cash provided by operating activities was impacted significantly by two offsetting factors, an increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in inventory.

The increase in accounts receivable in the 2023 period was primarily due to increased sales in the three months ended September 2023 compared to sales in the three months ended September 2022, and, to a lesser extent, a result of differences in payment terms offered to customers in 2023 compared to those offered in 2022. We expect substantially all of the accounts receivables balances as of September 30, 2023 will be collected during the fourth quarter of 2023.

The effect of the increase in accounts receivable was offset, in part, by a decrease in inventory in the 2023 nine-month period compared to an increase in inventory in the 2022 nine-month period. The increase in inventory in the 2022 period was a result of the decline in sales that occurred as our distribution partners met demand partially through inventory drawdowns. The decrease in inventory in the 2023 period reflects a return to more normal purchase patterns from our distribution partners.

26

Investing Activities

Capital expenditures in the 2023 nine-month period were $112.9 million primarily related to $65.1 million for the Arkansas manufacturing facility, $17.9 million in cost reduction initiatives, $12.2 million for our new corporate headquarters, and $9.5 million related to other capacity expansion, safety, environmental and general support.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities in the 2023 nine-month period consisted primarily of net borrowings under our line of credit and repurchases of our outstanding common stock.

Stock Repurchase Program. On February 16, 2018, the Trex Board of Directors adopted a stock repurchase program of up to 11.6 million shares of its outstanding common stock (Stock Repurchase Program). The Company has repurchased 10.1 million shares under the Stock Repurchase Program. On May 4, 2023, the Trex Board of Directors adopted a new stock repurchase program (2023 Stock Repurchase Program) of up to 10.8 million shares of its outstanding common stock, and terminated the existing Stock Repurchase Program. The 2023 Stock Repurchase Program has no set expiration date and 264,896 shares were repurchased under the 2023 Stock Repurchase Program as of September 30, 2023.

Indebtedness on and after May 18, 2022 and prior to December 22, 2022. On May 18, 2022, the Company, as borrower; Trex Commercial, as guarantor; BOA, as a Lender, Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer; Wells Fargo, as lender and Syndication Agent; Regions Bank, PNC Bank, National Association (PNC), and TD Bank, N.A. (TD)(each, a Lender and collectively, the Lenders), arranged by BofA Securities, Inc. as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, entered into a Credit Agreement (Credit Agreement) to amend and restate the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November 5, 2019.

Under the Credit Agreement, the Lenders agreed to provide the Company with one or more Revolving Loans in a collective maximum principal amount of $400,000,000 (Loan Limit) throughout the term, which ends May 18, 2027 (Term). Included within the Loan Limit are sublimits for a Letter of Credit facility in an amount not to exceed $60,000,000; and Swing Line Loans in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $20,000,000. The Revolving Loans, the Letter of Credit facility and the Swing Line Loans are for the purpose of raising working capital and supporting general business operations.

The Credit Agreement provides the Company, in the aggregate, the ability to borrow an amount up to the Loan Limit during the Term. The Company is not obligated to borrow any amount under the Loan Limit. Within the Loan Limit, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow at any time or from time to time while the Notes are in effect. Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) under the Revolving Loans and the Swing Line Loans accrue interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and Term SOFR Loans for the Revolving Loans accrue interest at the rate per annum equal to the sum of Term SOFR for such interest period plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Base Rate for any day is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by BOA as its prime rate, and (c) the Term SOFR plus 1.0% subject to certain interest rate floors. Repayment of all then outstanding principal, interest, fees and costs is due at the end of the Term.

The Company and BofA Securities as a sustainability coordinator, are entitled to establish specified key performance indicators (KPIs) with respect to certain environmental, social and governance targets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The sustainability coordinator and the Company may amend the Credit Agreement for the purpose of incorporating the KPIs and other related provisions, unless the Lenders object to such amendment on or prior to the date that is ten business days after the date on which such amendment is posted for review by the Lenders. Based on the performance of the Company and its subsidiaries against the KPIs, certain adjustments (increase, decrease or no adjustment) to otherwise applicable pricing will be made; provided that the amount of such adjustments shall not exceed certain aggregate caps as in the definitive loan documentation.

Under the terms of the Security and Pledge Agreement, the Company and Trex Commercial, subject to certain permitted encumbrances, as collateral security for the above-stated loans and all other present and future indebtedness of the Company owing to the Lenders grants to BOA, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders, a continuing security interest in certain collateral described and defined in the Security and Pledge Agreement but excluding the Excluded Property (as defined in the Security and Pledge Agreement).

27

Indebtedness On and After December 22, 2022. As of December 22, 2022, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (First Amendment) by and among the Company, as borrower, the guarantors party thereto; BOA, as a Lender, Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer; TD as lender and Syndication Agent; Regions Bank, PNC, and Wells Fargo (each, a Lender and collectively, the Lenders), arranged by BofA Securities as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, amending that certain Credit Agreement dated as of May 18, 2022, by and among the Company, as borrower, the guarantors party thereto, BOA, as a Lender, Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer and the other lenders identified therein (as so amended, the “Credit Agreement”). The First Amendment removes Trex Commercial as a guarantor to any and all indebtedness under the Credit Agreement. As a part of the First Amendment, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to provide for an additional Revolving B Loan (as hereinafter defined).

Under the First Amendment, the Lenders agreed to provide the Company with a Revolving B Loan consisting of one or more revolving loans in a collective maximum principal amount of $150,000,000 (Revolving B Loan Limit) throughout the term, which ends December 22, 2024 (Revolving B Loan Term). Previously, under the Credit Agreement, there was no Revolving B Loan. The First Amendment also provided that TD would serve as Syndication Agent.

As of December 22, 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to refer to this loan as the Revolving A Loan. The amended and restated Credit Agreement was made an Exhibit A to the First Amendment. All of the terms of the Credit Agreement apply to the Revolving B Loan. The Credit Agreement continues to include sublimits under the Revolving A Loan for a Letter of Credit facility in an amount not to exceed $60,000,000; and Swing Line Loans in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $20,000,000. The Revolving Loans, the Letter of Credit facility and the Swing Line Loans under Revolving A Loan are for the purpose of raising working capital and supporting general business operations.

The Notes provide the Company, in the aggregate, the ability to borrow an amount up to the Revolving A Loan Limit during the Revolving A Loan Term and Revolving B Loan Limit during the Revolving B Loan Term. The Company is not obligated to borrow any amount under the revolving loans. Within the respective loan limit, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow at any time or from time to time while the Notes are in effect. With respect to Revolving B Loans, for any day, the rate per annum is a tiered pricing based upon the Consolidated Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio. The applicable rate for Revolving B Loans that are Base Rate Loans range between 1.20% and 2.15% and the applicable rate for Revolving B Loans that are Term SOFR/Term SOFR Daily Floating Rate range between 0.20% and 1.15%.

At September 30, 2023, we had $56.5 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and borrowing capacity under the facility of $493.5 million.

Compliance with Debt Covenants. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to certain loan compliance covenants. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2023. Failure to comply with the financial covenants could be considered a default of repayment obligations and, among other remedies, could accelerate payment of any amounts outstanding.

We believe that cash on hand, cash from operations and borrowings expected to be available under our revolving credit facilities will provide sufficient funds to fund planned capital expenditures, make scheduled principal and interest payments, fund warranty payments, and meet other cash requirements. We currently expect to fund future capital expenditures from operations and financing activities. The actual amount and timing of future capital requirements may differ materially from our estimate depending on the demand for Trex products and new market developments and opportunities.

Capital Requirements. In October 2021, we announced plans to add a third U.S.-based Trex Residential manufacturing facility located in Little Rock, Arkansas. The new campus will sit on approximately 300 acres of land and will address increased demand for Trex Residential outdoor living products. The development approach for the new campus will be modular and calibrated to demand trends for Trex Residential outdoor living products. Construction began on the new facility in the second quarter 2022, and in July 2022, the Company entered into a design-build agreement. As previously announced, the Company anticipates spending approximately $400 million on the facility and the budget for the design-build agreement is contained within this amount. Construction for the new facility will be funded primarily through the Company’s ongoing cash generation or its line of credit.

Our capital expenditure guidance for 2023 is $145 million to $155 million. In addition to the construction of our third facility located in Arkansas, our capital allocation priorities include expenditures for internal growth opportunities, manufacturing cost reductions, upgrading equipment and support systems, and acquisitions which fit our long-term growth strategy as we continue to evaluate opportunities that would be a good strategic fit for Trex, and return of capital to shareholders.

28

Inventory in Distribution Channels. We sell our Trex Residential decking and railing products through a tiered distribution system. We have over 50 distributors worldwide and two national retail merchandisers to which we sell our products. The distributors in turn sell the products to dealers and retail locations who in turn sell the products to end users. Significant increases in inventory levels in the distribution channel without a corresponding change in end-use demand could have an adverse effect on future sales.

Product Warranty. The Company warrants that for the applicable warranty period its Trex Residential products, when properly installed, used and maintained, will be free from material defects in workmanship and materials and its decking, cladding, fascia and railing products will not split, splinter, rot or suffer structural damage from termites or fungal decay.

Products sold on or after January 1, 2023: The warranty period for residential use is 50 years for Transcend^® decking, 35 years for Select^® decking and Universal Fascia, and 25 years for Enhance^® decking and Transcend, Select, Enhance and Signature^® railing. The warranty period for commercial use is 10 years, excluding Signature railing and Transcend cladding, which each have a warranty period of 25 years. The Company further warrants that Trex Transcend, Trex Enhance and Trex Select decking and cladding and Universal Fascia products will not fade in color from light and weathering exposure more than a certain amount and will be resistant to permanent staining from food and beverage substances or mold and mildew, provided the stain is cleaned within seven days of appearance, for the warranty period referred to above. If there is a breach of such warranties, the Company has an obligation either to replace the defective product or refund the purchase price.

Products sold prior to January 1, 2023: The warranty period is 25 years for residential use and 10 years for commercial use. With respect to Trex Signature railing, the warranty period is 25 years for both residential and commercial use. The Company further warrants that Trex Transcend, Trex Enhance, Trex Select and Universal Fascia products will not fade in color more than a certain amount and will be resistant to permanent staining from food substances or mold, provided the stain is cleaned within seven days of appearance, for the warranty period referred to above. If there is a breach of such warranties, the company has an obligation either to replace the defective product or refund the purchase price.

Trex Residential continues to receive and settle claims for decking products manufactured at its Nevada facility prior to 2007 that exhibit surface flaking and maintains a warranty reserve to provide for the settlement of these claims. Estimating the warranty reserve for surface flaking claims requires management to estimate (1) the number of claims to be settled with payment and (2) the average cost to settle each claim.

To estimate the number of claims to be settled with payment, the Company utilizes actuarial techniques to determine a reasonable possible range of claims to be received and the percentage of those claims that will ultimately require payment (collectively, elements). Estimates for these elements are quantified using a range of assumptions derived from claim count history and the identification of factors influencing the claim counts to determine its best estimate of future claims for which to record a related liability. The cost per claim varies due to a number of factors, including the size of affected decks, the availability and type of replacement material used, the cost of production of replacement material and the method of claim settlement.

The Company monitors surface flaking claims activity each quarter for indications that its estimates require revision. Typically, a majority of surface flaking claims received in a year are received during the summer outdoor season, which spans the second and third quarters. It has been the Company’s practice to utilize the actuarial techniques discussed above during the third quarter, after a significant portion of all claims has been received for the fiscal year and variances to annual claims expectations are more meaningful.

Average cost per claim experienced in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was lower than that experienced in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was elevated due to the closure of three large claims, and lower than the Company’s expectations for 2023. The number of incoming claims received in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was lower than the number of claims received in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and lower than the Company’s expectations for 2023. After evaluating the declining trend in incoming claims in its actuarial analysis, the Company decreased its estimate of the number of future claims to be settled with payment. As a result of the decrease in estimated future claims, in the three-month period ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a reduction of $3.8 million to its warranty reserve for the future settlement of surface flaking claims. The Company believes the reserve at September 30, 2023 is sufficient to cover future surface flaking obligations.

29

The Company’s analysis is based on currently known facts and a number of assumptions, as discussed above, and current expectations. Projecting future events such as the number of claims to be received, the number of claims that will require payment and the average cost of claims could cause the actual warranty liabilities to be higher or lower than those projected, which could materially affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company estimates that the annual number of claims received will continue to decline over time and that the average cost per claim will increase slightly, primarily due to inflation. If the level of claims received or average cost per claim differs materially from expectations, it could result in additional increases or decreases to the warranty reserve and a decrease or increase in earnings and cash flows in future periods. The Company estimates that a 10% change in the expected number of remaining claims to be settled with payment or the expected cost to settle claims may result in approximately a $1.1 million change in the surface flaking warranty reserve.

The Company also maintains a warranty reserve for the settlement of other residential product warranty claims and records the provision at the time of product sale.

The following table details surface flaking claims activity related to our warranty:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023			2022
Claims open, beginning of period		1,729			1,759
Claims received (1)		451			507
Claims resolved (2)		(453	)		(506	)
Claims open, end of period		1,727			1,760
Average cost per claim (3)	$	3,977		$	5,200

(1) Claims received include new claims received or identified during the period.

(2) Claims resolved include all claims settled with or without payment and closed during the period.

(3) Average cost per claim represents the average settlement cost of claims closed with payment during the period.

Seasonality. The operating results for Trex Residential have historically varied from quarter to quarter. Seasonal, erratic or prolonged adverse weather conditions in certain geographic regions reduce the level of home improvement and construction activity and can shift demand for its products to a later period. As part of its normal business practice and consistent with industry practice, Trex Residential has historically offered incentive programs to its distributors and dealers to build inventory levels before the start of the prime deck-building season in order to ensure adequate availability of its product to meet anticipated seasonal consumer demand. The seasonal effects are often offset by the positive effect of the incentive programs.
