Comprehensive Income The Company's comprehensive income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, as required to be reported by Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, was identical to the actual income reported for those periods. 5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The Company has adopted the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets as of January 1, 2002. As required by SFAS No. 142, the results of operations for periods prior to its adoption have not been restated. Had these provisions been adopted effective January 1, 2001, the proforma net income would have been $12,469,000 and $6,231,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001, respectively. In connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company completed the first step of the transitional goodwill impairment test, which requires the Company to compare the fair value of its reporting units to the carrying value of the net assets of the respective reporting units as of January 1, 2002. Based on this analysis, the Company has concluded that no impairment existed at the time of adoption, and, accordingly, no impairment charge is necessary. The gross carrying value and accumulated amortization by major class of other intangible assets are as follows (in thousands): June 30, 2002 December 31, 2001 -------------------------------- --------------------------------- Gross Gross Carrying Accumulated Carrying Accumulated Amount Amortization Amount Amortization ------------- ------------------ ---------------- ---------------- Non-compete agreements $4,650 $1,581 $4,650 $1,410 Deferred financing costs 4,245 2,848 3,933 2,694 Other 400 17 400 4 ------------- ------------------ ---------------- ---------------- $9,295 $4,446 $8,983 $4,108 ============= ================== ================ ================ The Company does not have any intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives.

ABC is a distributor of exterior building products and is the largest wholesale distributor of roofing products and one of the largest wholesale distributors of vinyl siding materials in the United States, operating 235 distribution centers located in 44 states as of June 30, 2002. Since January 1, 2002, the Company has completed three acquisitions with eleven locations net of consolidations, opened ten distribution centers and closed one distribution center. Provision for Income Taxes. ABC and its subsidiaries are operated as Subchapter S corporations under the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, these entities do not incur federal and state income taxes (except with respect to certain states) and, accordingly, no discussion of income taxes is included in "Results of Operations" below. Federal and state income taxes (except with respect to certain states) on the income of such corporations are incurred and paid directly by the Company's sole stockholder. Such corporations have historically made periodic distributions to the stockholder with respect to such tax liabilities. The Company entered into the Tax Allocation Agreement with the sole stockholder, pursuant to which he will receive distributions from the Company with respect to taxes associated with the Company's income.

Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of the matters discussed herein and certain economic and business factors, some of which may be beyond the control of the Company. Results of Operations The following table summarizes the Company's historical results of operations as a percentage of net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001: Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, -------------------- ------------------ 2002 2001 2002 2001 -------- ------- -------- ------- Income statement data: Net sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales 74.9 75.9 75.0 75.9 -------- ------- -------- ------- Gross profit 25.1 24.1 25.0 24.1 Operating expenses 21.0 19.4 22.7 21.4 Amortization of intangible assets 0.0 0.1 0.0 0.1 -------- ------- -------- ------- Total operating expenses 21.0 19.5 22.7 21.5 -------- ------- -------- ------- Operating income 4.1% 4.6% 2.3% 2.6% ======== ======= ======== ======= 15 Comparison of the Three and Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2002 to the Three and Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2001 The Company's results of operations are affected by the seasonal nature of the roofing and siding business. See "Seasonality." Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2002 increased by 5.3% to $390.3 million from $370.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2002 increased by 6.2% to $656.7 million from $618.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Comparable distribution center sales were level for the three months ended June 30, and increased 1.9% for the six months ended June 30. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2002 increased by 9.9%, to $98.2 million from $89.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, primarily as a result of profits associated with increased sales. Gross profit, as a percent of net sales, for the three months ended June 30, increased to 25.1% in 2002, from 24.1% in 2001. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2002 increased by 10.3% to $164.3 million from $148.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, primarily as a result of profits associated with increased sales. Gross profit, as a percent of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, increased to 25.0% in 2002 from 24.1% in 2001. For both the three and six month periods, gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, increased primarily due to a higher percentage of distribution center warehouse sales versus "direct" sales (product shipped from the vendor directly to the customer's job site), which have significantly lower gross profit margins. Operating expenses increased by $10.2 million to $82.0 million from $71.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. As a percent of net sales, distribution center operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, increased to 21.0% in 2002 from 19.4% in 2001. For the six months ended June 30, distribution center operating expenses increased by $16.8 million to $148.7 million in 2002, from $131.9 million in 2001. As a percent of net sales, distribution center operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, increased to 22.7% in 2002 from 21.4% in 2001. The increase in operating expenses for both the three and six month periods is primarily due to the higher percentage of distribution center warehouse sales, which require greater operating expenses. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2002 decreased by $1.0 million to $16.1 million from $17.1 million for the same period in 2001. Operating income for the six months ended June 30, decreased by $0.8 million to $15.4 million in 2002 from $16.2 million in 2001. The decrease for the three and six months ended June 30, is a result of the factors discussed above. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2002 decreased by $1.4 million or 28.2% to $3.6 million from $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. For the six months ended June 30, interest expense decreased by $3.7 million or 34.3% to $7.0 million in 2002 from $10.7 million in 2001. The decrease for the three and six month periods is due primarily to decreased rates on the Company's LIBOR and prime rate borrowings, as well as a reduction in the Company's average borrowing levels. 16 Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $10.9 million and $25.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The decrease was due primarily to increases in inventory purchases related to the increased number of distribution centers, partially offset by an increase in net income and a smaller increase in accounts receivable and accounts payable due to slower sales growth during the second quarter of 2002 as compared to 2001. Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities increased to $19.4 million from $8.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, due to the acquisitions of businesses as well as an increase in additions to property and equipment. Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $5.5 million and $(18.6) million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, primarily due to increased borrowings made under the line of credit being partially offset by the increases in receivables from affiliates and distributions made to the stockholder. Liquidity. The Company's principal sources of funds are anticipated to be cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under its revolving credit agreement. The Company believes that these funds will provide the Company with sufficient liquidity and capital resources for the Company to meet its financial obligations, as well as to provide funds for the Company's working capital, capital expenditures, and other needs for the foreseeable future. No assurances can be given, however, that this will be the case. Seasonality Because of cold weather conditions in many of the markets in which the Company does business and the seasonal nature of the roofing and siding business generally, the Company's revenues vary substantially throughout the year, with its lowest revenues typically occurring in the months of December through February. 17 Part II.
