Current Business Conditions 2019 Initiatives • We consolidated our two commercial brands into Atlas | Masland Contract, under one management, sharing operations in marketing, product development, manufacturing, with a consolidated sales force. • We launched Sustaina™, our 95% post-consumer recycled material, PVC free and polyurethane free, cushion modular carpet tile backing. • We launched TRUCOR™ and TRUCOR Prime™ luxury vinyl flooring. • We saw great traction with our new TRUCOR™ SPC offering, including placement of over 2,000 displays in the retail community, and by the end of the quarter, TRUCOR™ represented a significant percentage of our total luxury vinyl sales. During the fourth quarter of 2019, we are expanding our TRUCOR™ line with the addition of TRUCOR Prime™, a WPC construction, in our Dixie Home and Masland sales forces. By the end of 2019, we anticipate having over 4,800 TRUCOR™ and TRUCOR Prime™ displays in the market. • We began shipment of our new EnVision 6,6™ soft floorcovering collection. This product line consists of beautifully styled carpet products at moderate price points to reach a wider range of consumers. • We are progressing with our Profit Improvement Plan with the bulk of the savings already in place as of the third quarter of 2019. 25
Non-GAAP Information Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information: The Company believes that non-GAAP performance measures, which management uses in evaluating the Company's business, may provide users of the Company's financial information with additional meaningful bases for comparing the Company's current results and results in a prior period, as these measures reflect factors that are unique to one period relative to the comparable period. However, the non-GAAP performance measures should be viewed in addition to, not as an alternative for, the Company's reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company defines Adjusted Gross Profit as Gross Profit plus manufacturing integration expenses of new or expanded operations, plus acquisition expense related to the fair market write up of inventories, plus one time items so defined (Note 1) The Company defines Adjusted S,G&A as S,G&A less manufacturing integration expenses included in selling, general and administrative, less direct acquisition expenses, less one time items so defined.

(Note 5) The company defines Free Cash Flow as Net Income plus interest plus depreciation plus non-cash impairment of assets and goodwill minus the net change in working capital minus the tax shield on interest minus capital expenditures. The change in net working capital is the change in current assets less current liabilities between periods. (Note 6) The company defines Non-GAAP Earnings per Share (EPS) as the adjusted operating income less Interest and other expense, tax adjusted at a 35% rate, and divided by the number of fully diluted shares. (Note 7) The Company defines Net Sales as Adjusted as net sales less the last week of sales in a 53 week fiscal year.
