CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (this “report”) includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “intends,” “trends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements made relating to our estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or our objectives and plans will be achieved. Important factors could affect our results and could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements, including but not limited to the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Summit Materials’ prospectus dated June 10, 2013 (the “Prospectus”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in accordance with Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on June 10, 2013.
All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements.
Any forward-looking statement that we make speaks only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.
As used in this report, unless otherwise noted or the context otherwise requires, references to “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” are to Continental Cement Company, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, and its subsidiary; and references to “Summit Materials” are to Summit Materials, LLC and not to its subsidiaries. The Company is a non-wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Summit Materials.

CONTINENTAL CEMENT COMPANY, L.L.C. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(In thousands)
(1) | Summary of Organization and Significant Accounting Policies |
Continental Cement Company, L.L.C. (the “Company” or “Continental Cement”) produces Portland cement at its plant located in Hannibal, Missouri. Cement distribution terminals are maintained in Hannibal and St. Louis, Missouri and Bettendorf, Iowa. The Company’s primary cement customers areready-mix operators and contractors located in the Midwestern United States.
Green America Recycling, L.L.C. (“GAR”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is engaged in the business of securing, processing and blending hazardous and nonhazardous waste materials primarily for use as supplemental fuels in the cement manufacturing process. GAR’s primary customers are commercial transportation disposal facilities and petroleum and chemical manufacturers located in the continental United States.
The Company is a Delaware limited liability company and is governed by the Amended and Restated Continental Cement Limited Liability Company Agreement, as amended (the “LLC Agreement”). As such, liability of its members is generally limited to the amount of their net investment in the Company. Summit Materials Holdings II, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Summit Materials, LLC (“Summit Materials”) purchased a controlling interest in the Company effective May 27, 2010.
Basis of Presentation – Management prepared these unaudited consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. The consolidated interim financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company continues to follow the accounting policies set forth in those consolidated financial statements.
Management believes that these consolidated interim financial statements include all adjustments, normal and recurring in nature, that are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 29, 2013, results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012 and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012.
In 2013, the Company changed its fiscal year from a calendar year to a 52 week year with each quarter comprised of 13 weeks ending on a Saturday. Under this new fiscal year, the Company’s second quarter in 2013 ended on June 29 compared to the calendar quarter ended June 30, 2012. The impact of this change to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and liquidity is immaterial.
Substantially all of the Company’s products are consumed outdoors primarily in the spring, summer and fall. Seasonal changes and other weather-related conditions can affect the sales volumes of its products. Therefore, the financial results for any interim period do not necessarily indicate the results expected for the year. Furthermore, the Company’s sales and earnings are sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions and to cyclical swings in construction spending.
Principles of Consolidation – The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Continental Cement and its wholly-owned subsidiary, GAR. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates – The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities. Such estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, goodwill, intangible and otherlong-lived assets, pension and other postretirement obligations, asset retirement obligations and the redeemable members’ interest. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from estimates made. Changes in estimates, including those resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment, will be reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.

Business and Credit Concentrations –The majority of the Company’s customers are located in Missouri, Iowa and Illinois. The Company’s accounts receivable consist primarily of accounts ofready-mix operators and contractors within these states. Collection of these accounts is, therefore, dependent on the economic conditions of the area. However, credit granted within the Company’s trade area has been granted to a wide variety of customers and management does not believe that any significant concentrations of credit exist with respect to individual customers or groups of customers who are engaged in similar activities that would be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions.
Approximately 15% and 16% of cement sales were with companies owned by a noncontrolling member of the Company during the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2013, respectively, and 14% and 16% during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The Company has historically had no collection issues with the noncontrolling member and management expects full collection on all outstanding accounts receivable due from the noncontrolling member.

(5) | Commitments and Contingencies |
Litigation and Claims – Continental Cement is party to certain legal actions, claims and regulatory matters arising from the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, these actions are without merit or the ultimate disposition, if any, resulting from these actions will not have a material effect on Continental Cement’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Continental Cement records legal fees as incurred.

In February 2011, Continental Cement incurred a property loss related to a sunken barge with cement product aboard. Through June 29, 2013, the Company has recognized $3.3 million of charges for lost product aboard the barge and eventual costs to remove the barge from the waterway. As of June 29, 2013, $1.8 million is included in accrued expenses as management’s best estimate of the remaining costs to remove the barge.
Environmental Remediation – Continental Cement’s mining operations are subject to and affected by Federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment, health and safety and other regulatory matters. These operations require environmental operating permits, which are subject to modification, renewal and revocation. Continental Cement regularly monitors and reviews its operations, procedures and policies for compliance with these laws and regulations. Despite these compliance efforts, risk of environmental liability is inherent in the operation of Continental Cement’s business, as it is with other companies engaged in similar businesses and there can be no assurance that environmental liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on Continental Cement in the future.
On October 14, 1999, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (“MDNR”) and the Environmental Protection Agency granted the Company a Final Hazardous Waste Management Facility Permit that authorizes Continental Cement to handle, treat, store, recover energy from and dispose of hazardous waste as a supplemental fuel source (RCRA Part B Permit). This permit also incorporated certain Boiler and Industrial Furnace regulation emission limits and operating parameters that the Company was subject to prior to the Maximum Achievable Control Technology Standards (“MACTS”). On October 13, 2009, a permit renewal application was submitted to MDNR. MDNR has authorized the Company to operate under interim status pending approval of the permit. Once approved, the renewal is expected to cover anotherten-year period.
On July 11, 2006, Continental Cement received a Construction Permit for a new kiln system to replace the system in operation at that time. The new kiln began shakedown operations in 2008 and is operating under the new Hazardous Waste Combustor MACTS. Continental Cement has performed the required confirmatory permit tests and submitted a Notification of Compliance to the regulatory agencies. The amended Construction Permit is in place and Continental Cement is now preparing an application for renewal of the Part 70 Operating Permit that will encompass the new permit requirements as well as those that still apply to the components of the existing facility.
Other – Continental Cement is obligated under various firm purchase commitments for certain raw materials and services that are in the ordinary course of business. The terms of the purchase commitments are generally less than one year. Management does not expect any significant changes in the market value of these goods and services during the commitment period that would have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, and liquidity of Continental Cement.
Approximately 62% of the Company’s employees are represented by labor organizations under collective bargaining agreements. The collective bargaining agreements expire between 2013 and 2015, subject to mutually-agreed extensions. Historically, the Company has been successful at negotiating successor agreements without any material disruptions to operating activities. The Company does not expect the 2013 negotiations to have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position or liquidity.
(6) | Related-Party Transactions |
The Company owes $961 to a non-controlling member of Continental Cement for accrued interest on a related party note. The principal balance on the note was repaid as part of Summit Materials’ January 2012 refinancing transaction.
Cement sales to companies owned by certain non-controlling members of Continental Cement were approximately $3,517 and $5,096 for the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2013, respectively, and $3,027 and $5,216 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and accounts receivables due from these parties were approximately $1,282 and $976 as of June 29, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
Cement sales to other companies owned by Summit Materials were approximately $1,414 and $1,883 for the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2013, respectively, and $1,061 and $1,625 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Accounts receivables due from these parties were approximately $604 and $217 as of June 29, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

Overview
Continental Cement produces Portland cement (“cement”) at its highly efficient, state-of-the-art, dry cement manufacturing plant located in Hannibal, Missouri and has distribution terminals in Hannibal and St. Louis, Missouri and Bettendorf, Iowa. Continental Cement’s primary customers are ready-mix operators and contractors located in the Midwestern United States. In addition to producing cement, Continental Cement secures, processes and blends hazardous and nonhazardous waste materials primarily for use as supplemental fuels in the cement manufacturing process. Continental Cement’s primary customers for this service are commercial transportation disposal facilities and petroleum and chemical manufacturers located in the continental United States.
Continental Cement serves a variety of end-uses in its market, including residential and non-residential, agricultural and public infrastructure projects. Continental Cement believes exposure to various markets affords greater stability through economic cycles and positions it to capitalize on upside opportunities when recoveries in residential and non-residential construction occur. Continental Cement believes it is a top 20 supplier of cement in the United States by volume and the primary supplier within its local market.
Business Trends and Conditions
Cement is used in most forms of construction activity. Participants in the cement sector typically are large multinational corporations that offer a wide array of construction materials and services. Markets are defined in part by the distance materials may be efficiently transported from a cement distribution facility.
Transportation infrastructure projects, driven by both state and Federal funding programs, represent a significant share of the U.S. heavy-side building materials market. In July 2012, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (“MAP-21”) was enacted and took effect in October 2012. MAP-21 is a 27 month, approximately $105 billion transportation funding program that provides for $40.4 billion and $41.0 billion in highway infrastructure investments in fiscal years 2013 and 2014, respectively. The spending levels are consistent with the preceding Federal transportation funding program. In addition to Federal funding, highway construction and maintenance funding is also available through state, county and local agencies. Missouri transportation funds are constitutionally protected and may only be spent on transportation projects. Missouri has approximately $700.0 million in annual construction funding committed to essential road and bridge programs.
Despite the economic challenges of recent years, Continental Cement believes that the enacted Federal transportation funding program extending through fiscal 2014 is a positive development, reducing the uncertainty that existed with the previous funding program that had been subject to 10 short-term extensions. Within many of Continental Cement’s markets, the Federal, state and local governments have taken actions to maintain or grow highway funding during a time in which many areas of spending are facing significant cuts. However, Continental Cement could still be impacted by any economic improvement or slowdown, which could vary by local region and market. Continental Cement’s sales and earnings are sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions and particularly to cyclical swings in construction spending, especially in the private sector. From a macroeconomic view, the Company sees positive indicators, including upward trends in housing starts, construction employment and highway obligations. All of these factors should result in increased construction activity in the relatively near future as compared to the recently preceding years.
In addition to being subject to cyclical swings, Continental Cement’s business is also seasonal in nature. Almost all of its products are consumed outdoors. Severe weather, seasonal changes and other weather-related conditions can significantly affect the sales volumes of Continental Cement’s products. Normally, the highest sales and earnings are in the second and third quarters and the lowest are in the first and fourth quarters. Winter weather months are generally periods of lower sales as Continental Cement’s customers have fewer active projects. Periods of heavy rainfall also adversely affect Continental Cement’s customers’ work patterns and therefore demand for its products. Continental Cement’s working capital may vary greatly during these peak periods, but generally return to comparable levels as its operating cycle is completed each fiscal year.

Results of Operations
The following discussion of Continental Cement’s results of operations is focused on the material financial measures Continental Cement uses to evaluate the performance of its business. Operating income and margins are discussed in terms of changes in volume, pricing and mix of revenue source (e.g., bulk or retail sales). Continental Cement’s product revenue reflects cement sales and service revenue reflects revenues from the acceptance of waste fuels.
In 2013, the Company changed its fiscal year from a calendar year to a 52 week year with each quarter comprised of 13 weeks ending on a Saturday. Under this new fiscal year, the Company’s second quarter in 2013 ended on June 29 compared to the calendar quarter ended June 30, 2012. The impact of this change to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and liquidity is immaterial.
Non-GAAP Performance Measures
Continental Cement evaluates the performance of its business and allocates its resources primarily based on several factors, including a measure it calls Adjusted EBITDA. Continental Cement defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense and depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion. Accretion is recognized on asset retirement obligations and reflects the time value of money. Since accretion is similar in nature to interest expense, it is treated consistently with interest expense in determining Adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted EBITDA reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of Continental Cement’s business that, when viewed with Continental Cement’s GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to GAAP financial measures included in the tables below, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Continental Cement’s business. However, it should not be construed as being more important than other comparable GAAP measures and must be considered in conjunction with GAAP measures. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore it may not be possible to compare such financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. Continental Cement strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

Continental Cement’s revenue increased 4.1% and 1.1% in the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2013 from the comparative periods in 2012, respectively. Cement volumes increased 6.3% in 2013 from sales to a high-volume customer, which, due to pricing, caused a 6.5% decrease in the average selling price (“ASP”) for cement. The pricing and volume movements in cement sales resulted in minimal impact to revenue in the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2013 from the comparative periods in 2012. The Company realized improvement in its waste processing business which contributed to the 4.1% and 1.1% increase in revenue in the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2013, respectively, from the comparative periods in 2012.
Operating margin, which Continental Cement defines as operating income as a percentage of revenue, declined from 34.8% in the second quarter of 2012 to 33.3% in the second quarter of 2013. This decrease was due to the drop in ASP discussed above. Operating margin in the six month period ended June 29, 2013 decreased to 1.5% from 11.8% in 2012 as a result of the decline in prices and a $1.8 million charge for the estimated remaining costs to remove a sunken barge from the Mississippi River.
Adjusted EBITDA improved $0.3 million, or 2.4%, in the second quarter of 2013, consistent with the 4.1% increase in revenue. In the six month period ended June 29, 2013, Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $3.1 million, $1.8 million of which was attributable to costs incurred to remove a sunken barge from the Mississippi River and $1.4 million of higher plant repair costs in the first quarter of 2013. The Company conducts an annual plant shutdown each winter in the first quarter to conduct repair and maintenance activities on the cement plant. The additional costs associated with plant repairs in 2013 were primarily attributable to repairs to the raw mill and finishing mill grinding system.
Other Financial Information
Interest expense
Interest expense decreased in the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2013 from the comparative periods in 2012 due to a decrease in the weighted average borrowing rate as a result of Summit Materials’ February 2013 repricing, through which their borrowing rate was reduced by 1.0%. The favorable pricing adjustment for Summit Materials had a reciprocal impact on Continental Cement’s borrowing rate with Summit Materials. Continental Cement’s average debt balance in the six month period ended June 29, 2013 was $156.1 million, compared to $157.3 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Continental Cement’s primary sources of liquidity include cash provided by its operations and amounts available for borrowing from Summit Materials. As of June 29, 2013, Continental Cement had working capital of $(8.1) million as compared to $9.9 million as of December 31, 2012. Working capital is calculated as current assets less current liabilities, excluding the current portion of long-term debt due to Summit Materials. Continental Cement participates in Summit Material’s centralized banking system, through which excess funds are swept to and shortfalls are funded by Summit Materials. As a result, the cash balance held at Continental Cement is nominal.
Given the seasonality of its business, Continental Cement typically experiences significant fluctuations in working capital needs and balances throughout the year with sales peaking in the summer and fall months. Working capital requirements generally increase during the first half of the year as management focuses on repair and maintenance and other set up costs for the upcoming season. Working capital levels then decrease as we wind down the construction season and enter the winter months, which is when we see significant inflows of cash from the build-up of receivables during the peak months of the season.
Despite the seasonality of its sales, Continental Cement produces cement throughout the year with the exception of scheduled plant maintenance during non-peak months. Continental Cement believes it has sufficient financial resources from its liquidity sources to fund its business and operations, including contractual obligations, capital expenditures and debt service obligations for at least the next twelve months. There were no restricted cash balances as of June 29, 2013 or December 31, 2012.
January 2012 Financing Transactions
On January 30, 2012, Summit Materials refinanced its consolidated outstanding indebtedness. The refinancing of the pre-existing long-term debt was partially accounted for as an extinguishment. As a result of the January 2012 financing transactions, Continental Cement’s existing debt was repaid by Summit Materials and was replaced by $156.8 million of long-term debt due to Summit Materials. Continental Cement recognized a charge to earnings of $0.3 million related to financing fees on the debt repaid.
The terms of Summit Materials’ debt limit certain transactions of its subsidiaries, including those of Continental Cement. Continental Cement’s ability to incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares, pay dividends to its noncontrolling members, redeem stock or make other distributions, make certain investments, sell or transfer certain assets, create liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets or enter into certain transactions with affiliates are limited.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes Continental Cement’s net cash used for or provided by operating, investing and financing activities and Continental Cement’s capital expenditures for the periods indicated:

Cash paid for capital expenditures | $ | (15,888 | ) | $ | (7,580 | ) |
Operating activities
The seasonal nature of the Company’s industry impacts quarterly operating cash flow when compared with the full year. Full year 2012 net cash provided by operating activities was $22.4 million compared with net cash used in operating activities of $7.7 million in the first half of 2013.
For the six month period ended June 29, 2013, cash used in operating activities was $7.7 million as a result of:
• | Net loss of $5.0 million, offset by non-cash expenses of $6.0 million, which was primarily depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense. |
• | Cash utilized for working capital needs approximated $8.7 million primarily as a result of $3.6 million used for accounts receivable and $1.6 million for accounts payable and accrued expenses. As the Company’s products are used outdoors, sales in the spring and summer months exceed those in winter months. As a result, uncollected receivables are typically greater at the end of the second and third quarters and then these amounts are converted to cash as the operating cycle is completed each fiscal year. Also impacting working capital needs was $7.4 million of interest payments in 2013, compared to $2.6 million in the comparative 2012 period due to the contractual timing of cash payments. |
14
Table of Contents
• | Inventory utilized cash of $2.6 million as production outpaced sales. Cement volumes in 2013 were relatively consistent with 2012, but plant efficiency improved and the annual plant shutdown was eleven days shorter in 2013 than in 2012. |
For the six month period ended June 30, 2012, cash provided by operating activities was $2.9 million as a result of:
• | Net loss of $2.0 million, offset by non-cash expenses of $5.2 million, which was primarily depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense. |
• | Cash utilized for working capital needs approximated $0.3 million. Accounts receivables utilized a net $5.3 million from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012. In conjunction with the seasonality of our business, for which the majority of our sales occur in the spring, summer and fall, we typically incur an increase in accounts receivable in the second and third quarters of each year. These amounts are converted to cash in the fourth and first quarters of each year. The timing of payments associated with accrued expenses provided $4.7 million of additional cash primarily a result of deferring interest payments. Accrued interest charges approximating $4.0 million, $1.6 million of which was due to a noncontrolling member, was refinanced into long-term debt due to Summit Materials or deferred over a two-year period. |
Investing activities
For the six month period ended June 29, 2013, cash used for investing activities was $15.9 million, all of which was related to capital expenditures. The capital expenditures were primarily a result of enhancement costs incurred during the cement plant’s annual scheduled winter shutdown, as well as continued development of the underground mine ($7.8 million) and a storage dome in St. Louis, Missouri ($2.6 million), which will be used to store cement product.
For the six month period ended June 30, 2012, cash used for investing activities was $7.6 million, primarily related to capital expenditures. The capital expenditures included enhancement costs incurred during the cement plant’s annual scheduled winter shutdown, as well as development of the underground mine ($1.9 million).
Financing activities
For the six month period ended June 29, 2013, cash provided by financing activities was $23.0 million, primarily driven by $23.3 million of net borrowings from Summit Materials and its subsidiaries to fund working capital requirements and capital projects.
For the six month period ended June 30, 2012, cash provided by financing activities was $5.5 million, primarily driven by $8.5 million of net borrowings to fund working capital requirements, offset by $3.0 million of payments on long-term debt.
Cash paid for capital expenditures
Continental Cement expended approximately $15.9 million in capital expenditures in the six month period ended June 29, 2013 compared to $7.6 million in the first half of 2012. A significant portion of the increase in capital expenditures in 2013 relates to developing an underground mine to extract limestone on Continental Cement’s Hannibal, MO property where its cement plant is located. Continental Cement spent $7.8 million on the underground mine development in the first half of 2013, as compared to $1.9 million in the first half of 2012.
Continental Cement estimates that it will incur between $23.0 million and $26.0 million in capital expenditures in 2013, which it has funded or expects to fund through cash on hand, cash from operations and available borrowings under Summit Materials’ credit facilities. A significant portion of Continental Cement’s anticipated future capital expenditures relates to development of the underground mine. Continental Cement expects to spend approximately $16.3 million during 2013 and 2014 on this project. Continental Cement believes this project will eliminate the need to strip away overburden that covers the limestone and position the facility to access over 200 years of proven and probable limestone reserves.
Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, Continental Cement has commitments, lawsuits, claims and contingent liabilities. In the opinion of Continental Cement’s management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
15
Table of Contents
In February 2011, Continental Cement incurred a property loss related to a sunken barge with cement product aboard. Through June 29, 2013, the Company has recognized $3.3 million of charges for lost product aboard the barge and eventual costs to remove the barge from the waterway. As of June 29, 2013, $1.8 million is included in accrued expenses as management’s best estimate of the remaining costs to remove the barge.
Approximately 62% of Continental Cement’s employees are represented by labor organizations under collective bargaining agreements. The collective bargaining agreements expire between 2013 and 2015. Historically, the Company has been successful at negotiating successor agreements without any material disruption to operating activities. Management does not expect 2013 negotiations to have a material impact on results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
Continental Cement is obligated under various firm purchase commitments for certain raw materials and services that are in the ordinary course of business. The terms of the purchase commitments are generally less than one year. Management does not expect any significant changes in the market value of these goods and services during the commitment period that would have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, and liquidity of Continental Cement.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 29, 2013, Continental Cement had no material off-balance sheet arrangements, such as financing arrangements or unconsolidated variable interest entities that either have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on Continental Cement’s results of operations, financial position, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and the Company’s Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 29, 2013. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 29, 2013, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
There are no material legal proceedings pending against the Company. Continental Cement is a party from time to time to legal proceedings relating to its operations. The ultimate legal and financial liability in respect to all legal proceedings in which the Company is involved at any given time cannot be estimated with any certainty. However, based upon examination of such matters and consultation with counsel, management currently believes that the ultimate outcome of these contingencies, net of liabilities already accrued on the consolidated balance sheet, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations and/or cash flows for that period.
ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Prospectus, which could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition or future results.
