Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

1. BACKGROUND AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Description of Business

Continental Building Products, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation. Prior to the acquisition of the gypsum division of Lafarge North America Inc. ("Lafarge N.A.") described below, the Company had no operating activity. The Company manufactures gypsum wallboard related products for commercial and residential buildings and houses. The Company operates a network of three highly efficient wallboard facilities, all located in the eastern United States, and produces joint compound at one plant in the United States and at another plant in Canada.

The Acquisition

On June 24, 2013, Lone Star Fund VIII (U.S.), L.P., (along with its affiliates and associates, but excluding the companies that it owns as a result of its investment activity, “Lone Star”), entered into a definitive agreement with Lafarge N.A. to purchase the assets of its North American gypsum division for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $703 million (the "Acquisition") in cash. The closing of the Acquisition occurred on August 30, 2013.

Secondary Public Offerings

On March 18, 2016, following a series of secondary offerings, LSF8 Gypsum Holdings, L.P. ("LSF8") sold its remaining 5,106,803 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per share of $16.10. Following the March 18, 2016 transaction and the concurrent repurchase by the Company of 900,000 shares of Company’s common stock from LSF8, to the best of the Company's knowledge, neither LSF8 nor any other affiliate of Lone Star held any shares of Company common stock. (See Note 11, Treasury Stock).

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

(b) Basis of Presentation for Interim Periods

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included for the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with

U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted for the interim periods presented. Management believes that the unaudited interim

financial statements include all adjustments (which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly the financial

position of the Company and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year

ending December 31, 2017. Seasonal changes and other conditions can affect the sales volumes of the Company’s products.

Therefore, the financial results for any interim period do not necessarily indicate the expected results for the year.

The financial statements should be read in conjunction with Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes

thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year then

ended (the "2016 10-K"). The Company has continued to follow the accounting policies set forth in those financial statements.

(d) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Adopted During the Period

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-11, "Inventory:Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory." This guidance applies to inventory valued at first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost and requires inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, rather than at the lower of cost or market. ASU 2015-11 is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods, including interim reporting periods within those periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company values its inventory under the average cost method and thus will be required to adopt the standard. The Company adopted the new standard in the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting," which introduces targeted amendments intended to simplify the accounting for stock compensation. Specifically, the ASU requires all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies (including tax benefits of dividends on share-based payment awards) to be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. The tax effects of exercised or vested awards should be treated as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur. An entity also should recognize excess tax benefits, and assess the need for a valuation allowance, regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period. That is, off-balance sheet accounting for net operating losses stemming from excess tax benefits would no longer be required and instead such net operating losses would be recognized when they arise. Existing net operating losses that are currently tracked off-balance sheet would be recognized, net of a valuation allowance if required, through an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. Entities will no longer need to maintain and track an "APIC pool." The ASU also requires excess tax benefits to be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows. The amendments were effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted the new standard in the first quarter of 2017, which resulted in a favorable adjustment to income tax provision of $0.2 million.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-9, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," which provides accounting guidance for all revenue arising from contracts with customers and affects all entities that enter into contracts to provide goods or services to their customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date," which defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-9 for all entities by one year to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The ASU requires retroactive application on either a full or modified basis. The Company will adopt the standard on January 1, 2018. The Company has identified a project implementation team and has identified its revenue streams. The Company is in the process of evaluating the various aspects of the standard and how the standard may impact how the Company recognizes revenue. The Company is also evaluating the potential impact that the new guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements. While the Company has not completed its analysis, the Company does not anticipate that the new guidance will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption, which is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

8

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." This ASU is intended to introduce a revised approach to the recognition and measurement of credit losses, emphasizing an updated model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. The provisions of this standard are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance may have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." This ASU intends to add or clarify guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows.  The provisions of this standard are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating when it will adopt the ASU and the expected impact to its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, "Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory." The new standard requires companies to recognize the income tax effects of intercompany sales or transfers of assets, other than inventory, in the income statement as income tax expense (or benefit) in the period the sales or transfer occurs. The standard requires companies to apply a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative catch-up adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. The provisions of this standard are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating when it will adopt the ASU and the expected impact to its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017- 04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other." This ASU simplifies the goodwill impairment calculation by eliminating the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (i.e., Step 2 of today’s goodwill impairment test) to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, entities will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value (i.e., Step 1 of today’s goodwill impairment test). The standard will be applied prospectively and is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed in periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for annual and interim goodwill impairment testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating when it will adopt the ASU and the expected impact to its Consolidated Financial Statements.

7. INVESTMENT IN SEVEN HILLS

The Company is a party with an unaffiliated third party to a paperboard liner venture named Seven Hills Paperboard, LLC ("Seven Hills") that provides the Company with a continuous supply of high-quality recycled paperboard liner to meet its ongoing production requirements.

The Company has evaluated the characteristics of its investment and determined that Seven Hills would be deemed a variable interest entity, but that it does not have the power to direct the principal activities most impacting the economic performance of Seven Hills, and is thus not the primary beneficiary. As such, the Company accounts for this investment in Seven Hills under the equity method of accounting.

Paperboard liner purchased from Seven Hills was $14.8 million and $26.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared to $11.1 million and $22.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had certain purchase commitments for paper totaling $35.6 million through 2020.

(a) As of June 30, 2017, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as amended, had a maturity date of August 18, 2023 and an interest rate of LIBOR (with a 0.75% floor) plus 2.50%, compared to as of December 31, 2016, at which time the First Lien Credit Agreement had the same maturity date and an interest rate of LIBOR (with a 0.75% floor) plus 2.75%.

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company purchased certain assets from Lafarge N.A. with cash. In order to finance a portion of the consideration payable to Lafarge N.A., the Company and its subsidiary Continental Building Products Operating Company, LLC ("OpCo") entered into a first lien credit agreement with Credit Suisse AG, as administrative agent, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and RBC Capital Markets, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and Royal Bank of Canada, as syndication agent (as amended on December 2, 2013, the "First Lien Credit Agreement") and a second lien credit agreement with Credit Suisse AG, as administrative agent, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and RBC Capital Markets, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and Royal Bank of Canada, as syndication agent for term loan borrowings of $320 million and $120 million, respectively, and drew $25 million under a $50 million revolving credit facility under the First Lien Credit Agreement. The available amount under the First Lien Credit Agreement term loan was subsequently increased to $415 million. In conjunction with the initial issuance of this debt, the Company incurred $15.3 million of debt issuance costs which were being amortized using the effective interest rate method or the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest rate method, over the estimated life of the related debt. Interest under the First Lien Credit Agreement was floating. The margin applicable to the borrowing was reduced in the third quarter 2014 to 3.00% after the Company achieved a B2 rating with a stable outlook by Moody’s.

On August 18, 2016, the Company, OpCo and Continental Building Products Canada Inc. and the lenders party thereto and Credit Suisse, as Administrative Agent, entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amending and restating the First Lien Credit Agreement (the "Amended and Restated Credit Agreement"). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for a $275 million senior secured first lien term loan facility and a $75 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"), which mature on August 18, 2023 and August 18, 2021, respectively. Related to this debt refinancing, the Company incurred $4.7 million of discount and debt issuance costs, of which $2.5 million was recorded in Other expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and $2.2 million will be amortized over the term of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Upon completion of this debt refinancing, the Company recognized an additional expense of $3.3 million related to losses resulting from debt extinguishment which is also reported in Other expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The interest rate under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement remained floating but was reduced to a spread over LIBOR of 2.75% and floor of 0.75%.

On February 21, 2017, the Company repriced its term loan under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement lowering its interest rate by a further 25 basis points to LIBOR plus 2.50% thereby reducing its estimated interest expense by approximately $0.8 million per annum. All other terms and conditions under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement remained the same. In connection with the debt repricing, the Company incurred $0.7 million of debt issuance costs, which was recorded in Other expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The First Lien Credit Agreement was, and the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is, secured by the underlying property and equipment of the Company. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company made no voluntary prepayment of principal, compared to $25.0 million of voluntary prepayments in the same period of 2016. As of June 30, 2017, the annual effective interest rate on the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, including original issue discount and amortization of debt issuance costs, was 4.1%.

There were no amounts outstanding under the Revolver as of June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 the Company did not have any draws under the Revolver, compared to $22.0 million which the Company borrowed and repaid in full during the six months ended June 30, 2016 under the applicable revolving credit facility. Interest under the Revolver is floating, based on LIBOR plus 225 basis points. In addition, the Company pays a facility fee of 50 basis points per annum on the total capacity under the Revolver. Availability under the Revolver as of June 30, 2017, based on draws and outstanding letters of credit and absence of violations of covenants, was $73.4 million.

	Amount Due
	(in thousands)
July 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017	$	1,368
2018	2,736
2019	2,736
2020	2,736
2021	2,736
Thereafter	259,945
Total Payments	$	272,257

Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Company is required to comply with certain covenants, including among others, the limitation of indebtedness, limitation on liens, and limitations on certain cash distributions. One single financial covenant governs all of the Company’s debt and only applies if the outstanding borrowings of the Revolver plus outstanding letters of credit are greater than $22.5 million as of the end of the quarter. The financial covenant is a total leverage ratio calculation, in which total debt less outstanding cash is divided by adjusted earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization. As the sum of outstanding borrowings under the Revolver and outstanding letters of credit were less than $22.5 million at June 30, 2017, the total leverage ratio of no greater than 5.0 under the financial covenant was not applicable at June 30, 2017.

10. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company uses derivative instruments to manage selected commodity price and interest rate exposures. The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative trading purposes, and typically does not hedge beyond one year for commodity derivative instruments. Cash flows from derivative instruments are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Commodity Derivative Instruments

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had 2,420 thousand millions of British Thermal Units ("mmBTUs") in aggregate notional amount outstanding natural gas swap contracts to manage commodity price exposures. All of these contracts mature by July 31, 2018. The Company elected to designate these derivative instruments as cash flow hedges in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 815-20, Derivatives – Hedging. For derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income, and is reclassified to earnings when the underlying forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in cost of goods sold. The net unrealized loss that remained in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2017 was $0.1 million which is net of a tax amount of $0.1 million. The net unrealized gain that remained in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of December 31, 2016 was $0.2 million which is net of a tax amount of $0.1 million. No ineffectiveness was recorded on these contracts during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The Company reassesses the probability of the underlying forecasted transactions occurring on a quarterly basis.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, approximately $0.3 million of loss, net of $0.1 million of tax and $0.3 million of loss, net of $0.2 million of tax, respectively, were recognized in other comprehensive income for the commodity contracts. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the amount of gain reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into income was $0.1 million. As of June 30, 2017, there was $0.1 million recorded in other current assets and $0.2 million was recorded in other current liabilities. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, approximately $0.3 million of gain, net of $0.2 million of tax expense, and $0.2 million of gain, net of $0.1 million of tax expense, respectively, were recognized in other comprehensive income for the commodity contracts. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the amount of loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into income was $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2016, $0.4 million was recorded in other current assets.

Interest Rate Derivative Instrument

In September 2016, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements for a combined notional amount of $100.0 million with a term of four years, which hedged the floating LIBOR on a portion of the term loan under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to an average fixed rate of 1.323% and LIBOR floor of 0.75%. The Company elected to designate these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. The net unrealized gain that remained in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2017 was $1.0 million which is net of a tax amount of $0.5 million. The net unrealized gain that remained in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of December 31, 2016 was $1.2 million which is net of a tax amount of $0.6 million. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the amount of loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into income was $44,000 and $0.1 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, approximately $0.3 million of loss, net of tax expense of $0.2 million and $0.2 million of loss, net of tax expense of $0.1 million, respectively, were recognized in other comprehensive income for the interest rate swaps. As of June 30, 2017, there was $1.5 million recorded in other current assets. No ineffectiveness was recorded on these contracts during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Counterparty Risk

The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the Company’s derivative instruments. As of June 30, 2017, the Company’s derivatives were in a $1.3 million net asset position. All of the Company’s counterparties have investment grade credit ratings; accordingly, the Company anticipates that the counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts. The Company’s agreements outline the conditions upon which it or the counterparties are required to post collateral. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had no collateral posted with its counterparties related to the derivatives.

11. TREASURY STOCK

On November 4, 2015, the Company announced that the Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $50 million of its common stock, at such times and prices as determined by management as market conditions warrant, through December 31, 2016. Pursuant to this authorization, on March 18, 2016, the Company repurchased 900,000 shares of its common stock from LSF8 in a private transaction at a price per share of $16.10, or an aggregate of approximately $14.5 million, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated March 14, 2016. The Company has also repurchased shares of its common stock in the open market under this authorization. On August 3, 2016, the Company announced the Board of Directors had approved an expansion of its stock repurchase program by $50 million, increasing the aggregate authorization from up to $50 million to up to $100 million. The program was also extended from the end of 2016 to the end of 2017.

On February 21, 2017, the Board of Directors further expanded the Company's share repurchase program up to a total of $200 million of its common stock and extended the expiration date to December 31, 2018.

All repurchased shares are held in treasury, reducing the number of shares of common stock outstanding and used in the Company’s earnings per share calculation.

12. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock options, Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Units and Performance Restricted Stock Units

On May 1, 2017, the Company granted one employee 1,701 Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") that vest ratably over four years from the grant date. The market price on the date of grant was $24.30.

On May 1, 2017, the Company also granted one employee 1,702 Performance Based RSUs ("PRSUs"). The PRSUs vest on December 31, 2019, with the exact number of PRSUs vesting subject to the achievement of certain performance conditions through December 31, 2018. The number of PRSUs earned will vary from 0% to 200% of the number of PRSUs awarded, depending on the Company’s performance relative to a cumulative two year EBITDA target for fiscal years 2017 and 2018. The market price on the date of grant was $24.30.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized share-based compensation expenses of $0.8 million and $1.5 million, respectively, compared to $0.8 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The expenses related to share-based compensation awards were recorded in selling and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2017, there was $5.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options, restricted stock awards, RSUs and PRSUs. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years.

14. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s annual estimated effective tax rate is approximately 33.43%. The Company is subject to audit examinations at federal, state and local levels by tax authorities in those jurisdictions. In addition, the Canadian operations are subject to audit examinations at federal and provincial levels by tax authorities in those jurisdictions. The tax matters challenged by the tax authorities are typically complex; therefore, the ultimate outcome of any challenges would be subject to uncertainty. The Company has not identified any issues that did not meet the recognition threshold or would be impacted by the measurement provisions of the uncertain tax position guidance.

15. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table shows the weighted average number of shares used in computing earnings per share and the effect on the weighted average number of shares of potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive common stock has no effect on income available to common stockholders. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, approximately, 1,000 and 43,000 share-based compensation awards, respectively, were excluded from the weighted average shares outstanding because their impact would be anti-dilutive in the computation of dilutive earnings per share. Awards excluded for the same periods in 2016 were 165 and 77,000, respectively.

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

The Company leases certain buildings and equipment. The Company’s facility and equipment leases may provide for escalations of rent or rent abatements and payment of pro rata portions of building operating expenses. Minimum lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum lease term. The total expenses under operating leases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was $0.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively, compared to $1.1 million and $2.1 million for the same periods in 2016, respectively. The Company also has non-capital purchase commitments that primarily relate to gas, gypsum, paper and other raw materials. The total amounts purchased under such commitments were $21.7 million and $42.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared to $15.5 million and $33.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

Contingent obligations

Under certain circumstances, the Company provides letters of credit related to its natural gas and other supply purchases. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of approximately $1.6 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

Legal Matters

In the ordinary course of business, the Company executes contracts involving indemnifications standard in the industry. These indemnifications might include claims relating to any of the following: environmental and tax matters; intellectual property rights; governmental regulations and employment-related matters; customer, supplier, and other commercial contractual relationships; and financial matters. While the maximum amount to which the Company may be exposed under such agreements cannot be estimated, it is the opinion of management that these guarantees and indemnifications are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in certain legal actions and claims, including proceedings under laws and regulations relating to environmental and other matters. Because such matters are subject to many uncertainties and the outcomes are not predictable with assurance, the total liability for these legal actions and claims cannot be determined with certainty. When the Company determines that it is probable that a liability for environmental matters, legal actions or other contingencies has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable, an estimate of the costs to be incurred is recorded as a liability in the financial statements. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, such liabilities were not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. While management believes its accruals for such liabilities are adequate, the Company may incur costs in excess of the amounts provided. Although the ultimate amount of liability that may result from these matters or actions is not ascertainable, any amounts exceeding the recorded accruals are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

17. SEGMENT REPORTING

Segment information is presented in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, which establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and geographic areas. The Company’s primary reportable segment is wallboard, which represented approximately 97.2% and 96.9% of the Company's revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared to 97.0% and 96.8% of the Company's revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. This segment produces wallboard for the commercial and residential construction sectors. The Company also manufactures finishing products, which complement the Company’s full range of wallboard products.

Revenues from the major products sold to external customers include gypsum wallboard and finishing products.

The Company’s two geographic areas consist of the United States and Canada for which it reports net sales, fixed assets and total assets.

The Company evaluates operating performance based on profit or loss from operations before certain adjustments as shown below. Revenues are attributed to geographic areas based on the location of the assets producing the revenues. The Company did not provide asset information by segment as its Chief Operating Decision Maker does not use such information for purposes of allocating resources and assessing segment performance.

18. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

U.S. GAAP provides a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques used to measure the fair value and requires certain disclosures relating to fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in a market with sufficient activity.

The three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value, is as follows:

• Level 1—Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a Company has the ability to access;

• Level 2—Inputs, other than the quoted market prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

• Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability which is typically based on an entity’s own assumptions when there is little, if any, related market data available.

The Company evaluates assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring and non-recurring basis to determine the appropriate level to classify them for each reporting period. This determination requires significant judgments to be made by the Company. The fair values of receivables, accounts payable, accrued costs and other current liabilities approximate the carrying values as a result of the short-term nature of these instruments.

The Company estimates the fair value of its debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument using estimated market rates of debt instruments with similar maturities and credit profiles. These inputs are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying value reported in the consolidated balance sheet for the Company’s notes payable approximated its fair value.

The only assets or liabilities the Company had at June 30, 2017 that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are the natural gas hedges and interest rate swaps. The natural gas hedges had a negative fair value of $0.1 million as of June 30, 2017, net of tax amount of $0.1 million, compared to a positive fair value of 0.2 million, net of tax amount of $0.1 million as of December 31, 2016. Interest rate swaps had a positive fair value of $1.0 million as of June 30, 2017, net of tax amount of $0.5 million, compared to a positive fair value of $1.2 million as of December 31, 2016, net of tax amount of $0.6 million. Both the natural gas hedges and interest rate swaps are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as they are valued using third party pricing models which contain inputs that are derived from observable market data. Generally, the Company obtains its Level 2 pricing inputs from its counterparties. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include intangible assets and goodwill. These items are recognized at fair value when they are considered to be impaired.

There were no fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis. The Company discloses fair value information about financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis is intended to help the reader understand our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources. You should read this discussion in conjunction with "Risk Factors," "Forward-Looking Statements," "Selected Historical Financial and Operating Data," and our financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2017 (the "2016 10-K") and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable.

Overview

We are a leading manufacturer of gypsum wallboard and complementary finishing products in the eastern United States and eastern Canada. We operate highly efficient and automated manufacturing facilities that produce a full range of gypsum wallboard products for our diversified customer base. We sell our products in the new residential, repair and remodel, or R&R, and commercial construction markets.

Our primary reportable segment is wallboard, which accounted for approximately 97.2% and 96.9% of our net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared to 97.0% and 96.8% of our net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. We also operate other business activities, primarily the production of finishing products, which complement our full range of wallboard products. See Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our reporting segments.

Factors Affecting Our Results

Market

For the new residential construction market, housing starts are a good indicator of demand for our gypsum products. Installation of our gypsum products into a single family home typically follows a housing start by 90 to 120 days. The R&R market includes renovation of both residential and nonresidential buildings. Many buyers begin to remodel an existing home within two years of purchase. The generally rising levels of existing home sales and home resale values in recent years have contributed to an increase in demand for our products from the R&R market. The commercial construction market encompasses areas such as office, retail, heath care, hospitality, and government projects. Demand for our products from commercial construction typically follows signing of construction contracts by 12 to 18 months.

The rate of recovery in the new residential construction market, R&R market, and the new nonresidential construction market remains uncertain and will depend on broader economic circumstances, including employment, household formation, the home ownership rate, existing home price trends, availability of mortgage financing, interest rates, consumer confidence, job growth and discretionary business investment.

Wallboard pricing can be impacted by overall industry capacity in the United States. Currently, there is excess wallboard production capacity industry-wide in the United States which can lead to downward pressure on wallboard prices. We estimate that industry capacity utilization was approximately 75% and 73% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, and 73% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

Market Outlook

Most forecasts continue to project moderate growth in housing starts. Industry Analysts’ forecasts for 2017 housing starts in the United States included in the most recent Blue Chip Economic Indicators are 1.19 million to 1.29 million units, based on the average of the bottom ten and top ten forecasts included in the report, respectively. This forecast range represents an increase in the range of 2% and 10% over 2016 housing starts of 1.17 million. We also expect that the R&R and new commercial construction markets will continue to experience moderate growth.

Industry shipments of gypsum wallboard in the United States as reported by the Gypsum Association, were an estimated 6.2 billion and 12.2 billion square feet for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The 6.2 billion square feet is up 3% when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016, while the 12.2 billion is flat from the same prior year period. We estimate that industry shipments in the United States for all of 2017 will increase mid-single digits from 24.7 billion square feet in 2016.

19

Manufacturing Costs

Paper and synthetic gypsum are our principal wallboard raw materials. Paper constitutes our most significant input cost and the most significant driver of our variable manufacturing costs. Energy costs, consisting of natural gas and electricity, are the other key input costs. In total, manufacturing cash costs represented 64% of our costs of goods sold for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to 61% and 62% for the same periods in 2016, respectively. Depreciation and amortization represented 13% of our costs of goods sold for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to 14% of our costs of goods sold for the same periods in 2016. Distribution costs to deliver products to our customers represented the remaining portion of our costs of goods sold, or approximately 23% of our costs of goods sold for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to 25% and 24% of our costs of goods sold for the same periods in 2016, respectively.

Variable manufacturing costs, including inputs such as paper, gypsum, natural gas, and other raw materials, represented 70% and 71% of our manufacturing cash costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared to 67% and 68% for the same periods in 2016, respectively. Fixed production costs excluding depreciation and amortization consisted of labor, maintenance, and other costs that represented 30% and 29% of our manufacturing cash costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared to 33% and 32% for the same periods in 2016, respectively.

We currently purchase most of our paperboard liner from Seven Hills, a joint venture between us and WestRock Company. Under the joint venture agreement with Seven Hills, the price of paper adjusts based on changes in the underlying costs of production of the paperboard liner, of which the two most significant are recovered waste paper and natural gas. The largest waste paper source used by the operation is old cardboard containers (known as OCC). Seven Hills has the capacity to supply us with approximately 75% of our paper needs at our full capacity utilization and most of our needs at current capacity utilization on market-based pricing terms that we consider favorable. We also purchase additional paper on the spot market at competitive prices. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our investment in Seven Hills.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

Net Sales.Net sales increased by $3.5 million, up 3.0% from $117.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, to $120.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to a favorable impact of $3.2 million due to an increase in the average net selling price for gypsum wallboard at constant exchange rates. In addition, there was a $0.7 million favorable impact of higher wallboard volumes driven by higher demand in the United States. The overall increase in net sales was partially offset by unfavorable impact of $0.3 million related to foreign currency exchange rates and $0.1 million related to non-wallboard products.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased $6.1 million, up 7.3% from $83.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, to $89.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily driven by higher per unit input costs, mainly related to paper, gypsum and natural gas which increased cost of goods sold by $5.6 million. Amortization and depreciation costs and labor costs increased by $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively. In addition, higher wallboard volumes increased freight costs and input costs by $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The overall increase was partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease due to lower per unit freight costs and a $0.2 million increase in other manufacturing costs.

Selling and Administrative Expense. Selling and administrative expense decreased $1.0 million, down 9.8% from $10.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, to $9.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. This decrease was mainly driven by a $0.4 million decrease in professional services, a $0.2 million decrease in bad debt expense, a $0.2 million in warehouse lease expense and a $0.2 million decrease in other selling and administrative expense.

Operating Income. Operating income of $21.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 decreased by $1.6 million from operating income of $23.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The primary drivers for this decrease were higher input and labor costs, partially offset by higher net sales and lower freight costs for the second quarter 2017 versus the second quarter 2016.

Other (Expense)/Income, Net.Other (expense)/income, net, was a net expense of $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to net income of $6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

21

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense was $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $0.5 million from $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, reflecting lower average outstanding borrowings during second quarter 2017 compared to second quarter 2016 and the lower interest rate spread over LIBOR following the debt refinancing in August 2016 and repricing in February 2017. This decrease was partially offset by the rise in LIBOR. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on the refinancing and repricing.

Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes decreased $0.2 million from $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $6.6 million in the prior period. The lower provision for income taxes was primarily driven by lower pretax income and a slightly lower annual estimated effective tax rate.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2016

Net Sales.Net sales increased by $12.6 million, up 5.5% from $228.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, to $241.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to a $6.5 million favorable impact of higher wallboard volumes driven by higher demand in the United States and a favorable impact of $6.1 million due to an increase in the average net selling price for gypsum wallboard at constant exchange rates.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased $15.7 million, up 9.6% from $163.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, to $179.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Higher per unit input costs, mainly related to paper, gypsum and natural gas increased cost of goods sold by $10.6 million and higher per unit freight costs increased $0.3 million. In addition, higher wallboard volumes increased input costs and freight costs by and $1.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Furthermore, labor costs increased by $1.3 million. The remaining increase of $0.5 million was due to other manufacturing costs.

Selling and Administrative Expense. Selling and administrative expense decreased $0.6 million, down 3.1% from $19.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, to $18.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. This decrease was driven by a $0.8 million decrease in professional services and a $0.2 million decrease in warehouse lease expenses. The overall decrease was partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in stock compensation and a $0.1 million increase in other selling and administrative expenses.

Operating Income. Operating income of $43.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 decreased by $2.5 million from operating income of $45.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary drivers for this decrease were higher input, freight and labor costs, partially offset by an increase in net sales resulting from higher volumes and sales price.

Other (Expense)/Income, Net.Other (expense)/income, net, was a net expense of $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to net income of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The $1.0 million increase in expense was primarily driven by $0.7 million in additional expenses associated with the debt repricing in the first quarter 2017. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on the repricing.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense was $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $1.3 million from $7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, reflecting lower average outstanding borrowings and the lower interest rate spread over LIBOR following the debt refinancing in August 2016 and repricing in February 2017. This decrease was partially offset by the rise in LIBOR. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on the refinancing and repricing.

Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes decreased $0.8 million from $12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $12.9 million in the prior year period. The lower provision for income taxes was primarily driven by lower pretax income, a slightly lower annual estimated effective tax rate, and a $0.2 million favorable discrete tax item related to excess tax benefits on stock compensation recognized in connection with the adoption of new accounting guidance. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail on our adoption of this share-based compensation accounting guidance.

Non-GAAP Measures

EBITDA has been presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We have presented EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that it facilitates a comparative assessment of our operating performance relative to our performance based on our results under GAAP while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance and eliminates certain charges that we believe do not reflect our operations and underlying operational performance. Management also believes that EBITDA is useful to investors because it allows investors to view our business through the eyes of management and the board of directors, facilitating comparison of results across historical periods.

EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because other companies may not calculate EBITDA in the same manner as we do. EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP or any other financial statement data presented as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity, as calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash from operations, and borrowings under our debt financing arrangements. We believe these sources will be sufficient to fund our planned operations and capital expenditures. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a more detailed discussion of our debt financing arrangements.

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $42.5 million and $49.5 million, respectively. The decrease of $7.0 million in 2017 compared to 2016 was primarily driven by a decrease in net income and a decrease in cash from changes in working capital.

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $8.6 million, compared to $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily reflect an aggregate of $8.2 million in capital expenditures and software purchased or developed, compared to $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The remaining increase is driven by distributions and contributions related to our equity investment in Seven Hills.

Net Cash Used In Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $29.9 million, compared to $47.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we repriced the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, resulting in a net outflow of $0.6 million. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a more detailed discussion of the repricing. We made principal payments on our outstanding debt of $1.4 million and $25.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. We also deployed $27.8 million and $22.0 million during six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, to repurchase common stock.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported

amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our 2016 10-K includes a summary of the

critical accounting policies we believe are the most important to aid in understanding our financial results. There have been no

changes to those critical accounting policies that have had a material impact on our reported amounts of assets, liabilities,

revenues or expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to financial risks such as changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity price risk associated with our input costs and counterparty risk. We use derivative instruments to manage selected commodity price and interest rate exposures.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our outstanding debt, and cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2017, we had $55.8 million in cash and cash equivalents. The interest expense associated with the term loan and revolving credit facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement will vary with market rates.

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates related to our outstanding debt is somewhat mitigated as the term loan under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement has a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. A rise of interest rate levels would increase our interest expense and a reduction in interest rates to the floor would decrease our interest expense slightly as the LIBOR specified in the calculation of interest during the second quarter was slightly above the floor. A hypothetical 1.00% increase in interest rates would have increased interest expense by approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, while a hypothetical 1.00% decrease in interest rate would have decreased interest expense by $0.2 million. We based this sensitivity calculation on the three month LIBOR rate of 1.15% as of March 30, 2017 in accordance with the measurement date specified in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

As of June 30, 2017, we had interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $100.0 million and a 3-year remaining term, which swapped the floating interest rate on a portion of the term loan under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to an average fixed rate of 1.323%. The fair value of these interest rate swaps was $1.5 million as of June 30, 2017.

The return on our cash equivalents balance was less than 1%. Therefore, if investment interest rates decrease in the future, the corresponding impact to our interest income, and likewise to our income and cash flow, would not be material.

Foreign Currency Risk

Approximately 5.8% and 7.1% of our net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, were in Canada, compared to 8.0% and 7.6% of our net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. As a result, we are exposed to movements in foreign exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar. We estimate that a 1% change in the exchange rate between the U.S. and Canadian currencies would impact net sales by approximately $0.1 million based on results for the three months ended June 30, 2017. This may differ from actual results depending on the level of sales volumes in Canada. During the reported periods we did not use foreign currency hedges to manage this risk.

Commodity Price Risk

Some of our key production inputs, such as paper and natural gas, are commodities whose prices are determined by the market’s supply and demand for such products. Price fluctuations on our key input costs have a significant effect on our financial performance. The markets for most of these commodities are cyclical and are affected by factors such as global economic conditions, changes in or disruptions to industry production capacity, changes in inventory levels and other factors beyond our control. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had natural gas swap contracts for a portion of natural gas usage. The contracts mature between July 31, 2017 and July 31, 2018. Other than the natural gas swap contracts described above, we did not manage commodity price risk with derivative instruments. We may in the future enter into derivative financial instruments from time to time to manage our exposure related to these market risks.

Counterparty Risk

The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the Company’s derivative instruments. All of the Company’s counterparties have investment grade credit ratings; accordingly, the Company anticipates that the counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts. The Company’s agreements outline the conditions upon which it or the counterparties are required to post collateral. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had no collateral posted with its counterparties related to the derivatives.

Seasonality

Sales of our wallboard products are seasonal, similar to many building products, in that sales are generally slightly higher from spring through autumn when construction activity is greatest in our markets.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management's Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's management carried out the evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act), required by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon this evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2017.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations in Control Systems. The design of any system of control is based upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated objectives under all future events, no matter how remote, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may not deteriorate. Because of their inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
