NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Euramax Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of all interim periods reported herein. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed.

The Company’s sales volumes have historically been higher in the second and third quarters due to the seasonal demand of the building products markets served. Accordingly, results for the three months ended March 29, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Each of our interim reporting periods, other than the fourth interim reporting period, ends on the Friday closest to the last day of the corresponding quarterly calendar period. The first quarter of 2013 and 2012 ended on March 29 and March 30, respectively. Our fourth interim reporting period and our fiscal year end on December 31 regardless of the day of the week on which it falls.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the FASB issued amendments to disclosure requirements for presentation of comprehensive income. The Standard requires prospective presentation of the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income and the respective line items in the Consolidated Statement of Operations which are impacted. The amendment is effective prospectively for periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company has included the required disclosure in Note 6, Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.

Aluminum and steel coil includes both painted and bare coil. Inventories are net of related reserves totaling $2.8 million and $2.9 million as of March 29, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

r3. Indebtedness

Total debt	536,121		516,674
Less: current portion	11,510		—
Total long term debt	$	524,611	$	516,674

On March 25, 2013, the ABL Credit Facility was amended to, among other items, (i) extend the maturity date to January 1, 2016 or in the event the maturity date of the Senior Secured Notes and Senior Unsecured Loan Facilities are extended to a date that is ninety days or more following March 1, 2018, to March 1, 2018, (ii) reduce the Minimum Excess Availability Reserve to $1.0 million from 20% of outstanding borrowings, and (iii) reduce the excess availability threshold from 15.0% to 12.5%. In the event excess availability falls below the 12.5% threshold, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million, and after November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.15 to 1.00.

Senior Secured Notes

The Senior Secured Notes (the "Notes") were issued pursuant to an indenture, (the "Indenture"), dated March 18, 2011, among Euramax International, Inc ("Euramax"), the Company, and certain of its domestic subsidiaries as guarantors, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the Trustee.The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by Euramax Holdings, Inc., Euramax International, Inc., and Amerimax Richmond Company, a 100% wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of Euramax International, Inc. The Notes bear interest at 9.50% per year and mature on April 1, 2016, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased by Euramax. Interest is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each year.

6

The Notes may be redeemed at the option of Euramax, in whole or in part, under the conditions specified in the Indenture, at the following redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 1 of the years indicated:

Year	Percentage
2013	107.125	%
2014	104.750	%
2015 and thereafter	100.000	%

The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Euramax and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make certain distributions, make other restricted payments, make investments, incur liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants. These limitations also prohibit Euramax's ability to transfer cash or assets to Euramax Holdings, whether by dividend, loan or otherwise. The Indenture also contains customary events of default. If Euramax undergoes a change of control (as defined in the Indenture), Euramax will be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes at 101% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.

Senior Unsecured Loan Facility

The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility was issued at 98% of par on March 18, 2011 and matures on October 1, 2016.The difference between the consideration received and the aggregate face amount of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility ($1.7 million) is being amortized and recorded in interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the term of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility. The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility bears interest at 12.25% per year in the event no election is made to pay interest in kind (PIK), and 14.25% (7.875% cash pay and 6.375% PIK) per annum in the event a PIK election is made. The Company may make a PIK election for up to six quarters during the term of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility. The interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility at March 29, 2013 was 12.25%, as the Company has not made a PIK election.

Euramax may prepay outstanding amounts under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility, in whole or in part, at the prices (expressed as percentages of the loans) set forth below:

Prepayment Date	Percentage
On or after the second anniversary of the closing but prior to the third anniversary thereof	103	%
On or after the third anniversary of the closing but prior to the fourth anniversary thereof	102	%
On or after the fourth anniversary of the closing	100	%

Upon a change of control, Euramax may be required to prepay all or a portion of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.All obligations under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and Amerimax Richmond Company, a 100% wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of Euramax, and any future direct and indirect wholly‑owned domestic material restricted subsidiaries.

The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility contains restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Euramax and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make certain distributions, make other restricted payments, make investments, incur liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants.

The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, including among other things, payment defaults, covenant defaults, cross‑defaults to certain indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, material judgments, and failure of any guaranty supporting the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility to be in force and effect in any material respect. If such an event of default occurs, the administrative agent would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility and all actions permitted to be taken by an unsecured creditor.

ABL Credit Facility

On March 18, 2011, the Company, Euramax, and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, entered into the ABL Credit Facility with Regions Bank, as Collateral and Administrative Agent, Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, as Co-Collateral Agent, and Regions Business Capital, as Sole Lead Arranger and Bookrunner. The ABL Credit Facility provides for revolving credit financing of up to $70 million, subject to borrowing base availability. The ABL Credit Facility was amended on March 25, 2013 to, among other items, (i) extend the maturity date to January 1, 2016 or in the event the maturity date of the Senior Secured Notes and Senior Unsecured Loan Facility are extended to a date that is ninety days or more following March 1, 2018, to March 1, 2018, (ii) reduce the Minimum Excess Availability Reserve to $1.0 million from 20% of outstanding borrowings, and (iii) reduce the excess availability threshold from 15.0% to 12.5%. In the event excess availability falls below the 12.5% threshold, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million, and after November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.15 to 1.00. At March 29, 2013, $18.0 million was available to be drawn on the ABL Facility.

Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the prime commercial lending rate published by Regions Bank as its “prime rate” for commercial loans, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) the one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is dependent upon the type of borrowings the Company has made under the ABL Credit Facility. At March 29, 2013, the applicable margins were 2.50% and 1.50% for LIBOR and Base Rate borrowings, respectively. The applicable margins are subject to Euramax’s corporate credit rating as determined from time to time by Standard and Poor’s and Moody’s Investors Service and range from 2.00% to 2.75% for LIBOR borrowings and 1.00% to 1.75% for Base Rate borrowings. The weighted average interest rate, including the applicable margin payable on outstanding borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility, at March 29, 2013 was 2.7%. The ABL Credit Facility requires the Company to pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.375% to 0.5%, based on the unutilized commitments. The Company is also required to pay customary letter of credit fees, including, without limitation, a letter of credit fee equal to the applicable margin on revolving credit LIBOR loans and fronting fees.

All obligations under the ABL Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company, Amerimax Richmond Company, a wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of Euramax, and any future direct and indirect wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries which are not borrowers. All obligations under the ABL Credit Facility are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a first‑priority security interest in Euramax’s and the Guarantors’ inventory and accounts receivable and related assets, referred to as the ABL Collateral, and a junior‑priority security interest in (i) substantially all of Euramax’s and the Guarantors’ assets (other than inventory and accounts receivable and related assets, which assets secure the ABL Credit Facility on a first priority basis) and (ii) all of Euramax’s capital stock and the capital stock of each material domestic restricted subsidiary owned by Euramax or a Guarantor and 65% of the voting capital stock and 100% of any non-voting capital stock of foreign restricted subsidiaries directly owned by Euramax or a Guarantor, which we refer to collectively as the Notes Collateral.

The ABL Credit Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for this type of financing, including, but not limited to certain financial covenants in the event excess availability is less than 12.5% of the lesser of the aggregate amount of commitments outstanding at such time and the borrowing base. If excess availability falls below the 12.5% threshold, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million for the immediately preceding twelve month period. After November 30, 2013, Euramax would be required to meet a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.15 to 1.00 if excess availability falls below 12.5%. As of March 29, 2013, excess availability exceeded 12.5% of the borrowing base; therefore, Euramax was not required to meet the Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. Additionally, restrictive covenants limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to incur liens, incur, assume or permit to exist additional indebtedness, guarantees and other contingent obligations, consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets, pay dividends or make other distributions, make certain loans and investments, amend or otherwise alter the terms of documents related to certain of their indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates and prepay certain indebtedness, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants.

Dutch Revolving Credit Facility

In February 2012, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Euramax Coated Products, BV, entered into a revolving credit facility with Rabobank Roermond (the "Dutch Revolving Credit Facility"). The Dutch Revolving Credit Facility provides revolving credit financing of up to EUR 15 million and matures on April 1, 2016. Borrowings under the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum which is the aggregate of the average one month Euribor rate over a calendar month plus a margin of 2% and requires payment of a commitment fee of 0.35% per annum on the nominal amount of the credit facility. The weighted average interest rate, including the margin payable on outstanding borrowings under the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility, at March 29, 2013 was 2.4%. All obligations under the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a mortgage on the real estate of Euramax Coated Products, BV, a pledge on present and future machinery and present and future accounts receivable balances of Euramax Coated Products, BV. At March 29, 2013, $7.7 million was available to be drawn on the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility.

The Dutch Revolving Credit Facility contains financial and non-financial covenants customary for this type of financing. Financial Covenants include, but are not limited to, a minimum annual EBITDA target and a minimum amount of risk-bearing capital for Euramax Coated Products, BV both measured at the Company's fiscal year-end. The Dutch Revolving Credit Facility also contains a clause limiting further indebtedness. As of March 29, 2013, Euramax Coated Products, BV is in compliance with all covenants.

4. Commitments and Contingencies

Raw Material Commitments

The Company’s primary raw materials are aluminum and steel coil. Because changes in aluminum and steel prices are generally passed through to customers, increases or decreases in aluminum and steel prices generally cause corresponding increases and decreases in reported net sales, causing fluctuations in reported revenues that are unrelated to the level of business activity. However, if the Company is unable to pass through aluminum and steel price increases to customers in the future, its business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Although the Company believes there is sufficient supply in the marketplace to competitively source all of its aluminum and steel needs without reliance on any particular supplier, any major disruption in the supply and/or price of aluminum and steel could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and financial condition.

To ensure a margin on specific customer orders, the Company may commit to purchase aluminum ingot or coil at a fixed market price for future delivery. These contracts are for normal purchases and sales, and therefore are not required to be accounted for as derivatives.

Litigation

The Company is currently party to legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company has and will continue to vigorously defend itself in these matters. It is the opinion of the Company’s management, based upon information available at this time, that the expected outcome of all matters to which the Company is currently a party would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Environmental Matters

The Company’s operations are subject to federal, state, local and European environmental laws and regulations, including those concerning the management of pollution and hazardous substances.

9

In connection with the acquisition of the Company from Alumax Inc. (which was acquired by Aluminum Company of America in May 1998, and hereafter referred to as Alumax) on September 25, 1996, the Company was indemnified by Alumax for substantially all of its costs, if any, related to specifically identified environmental matters arising prior to the closing date of the acquisition during the period of time it was owned directly or indirectly by Alumax. Such indemnification includes costs that may ultimately be incurred to contribute to the remediation of eleven specified existing National Priorities List (NPL) sites for which the Company had been named a potentially responsible party under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) as of the closing date of the acquisition from Alumax, as well as certain potential costs for nine sites to which the Company may have sent waste for disposal. The Company does not believe that it has any significant probable liability for environmental claims. Further, the Company believes it to be unlikely that the Company would be required to bear environmental costs in excess of its pro rata share of such costs as a potentially responsible party at any site. Any receivable for recoveries under the indemnification would be recorded separately from the corresponding liability when the environmental claim and related recovery is determined to be probable. In addition, the Company establishes reserves for remedial measures required from time to time at its own facilities. Management believes that the reasonably probable outcomes of these matters will not be material. The Company’s reserves, expenditures, and expenses for all environmental exposures were not significant as of any of the dates or for any of the periods presented.

Product Warranties

The Company provides warranties on certain products. The warranty periods differ depending on the product, but generally range from one year to limited lifetime warranties. The Company provides for warranties based on historical experience and expectations of future occurrence. Changes in the product warranty accrual are summarized as follows:

	Three months ended
	March 29, 2013			March 30, 2012
	(in thousands)
Balance, beginning of period	$	5,098		5,050
Payments made or service provided	(876		)	(743		)
Warranty expense	957			880
Foreign currency translation	(81		)	225
Balance, end of period	$	5,098		$	5,412

5. Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for 2013 and 2012 are computed at the effective rate expected to be applicable in each respective full year using the statutory rates on a country by country basis, adjusted for changes in valuation allowances relating to the Company’s net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards. The effective rates for the three month periods ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012, were 2.7% and 4.4%, respectively.

The effective rate for the three months ended March 29, 2013 differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes, lower tax rates of our foreign operations as compared to the U.S. federal rates, U.S. tax impact of foreign dividends and non-deductible foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and recognition of valuation allowances related to net losses in the U.K. and for U.S. federal and state net operating losses.

The effective rate for the three months ended March 30, 2012 differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes, lower tax rates of our foreign operations as compared to the U.S. federal rates, U.S. tax impact of foreign dividends and non-deductible foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and recognition of valuation allowances related to net losses in the U.K. and for U.S. federal and state net operating losses.

Amounts reclassified from the defined benefit pension plan adjustments component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were recorded in selling and general expenses within the Consolidated Statement of Operations. There were no net tax effects related to the reclassification as a result of the full valuation allowances in the U.S. and UK in the current year. The accumulated tax effect related to the defined benefit pension plan adjustments component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was a benefit of $0.9 million as of March 29, 2013 and December 31, 2012. There are no tax impacts related to the foreign currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as the earnings of subsidiaries are considered to be permanently invested.

7. Employee Benefit Plans

Retirement Plans

The Company maintains a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all U.S. hourly employees (the U.S. Plan). In addition, the employees at Euramax Coated Products Limited and Ellbee Limited participate in a single employer pension plan (the UK Plan). The measurement date for the U.S. and UK plans is the last day of the fiscal year. The Company curtailed the accrual of participant benefits provided under the UK Plan effective March 31, 2009. This curtailment did not affect the timing for the payment of benefits earned under the UK Plan through the curtailment date. In January 2010, the Company's board of directors approved a motion to freeze future benefit accruals under the U.S. Pension Plan. The impact on the Company's projected benefit obligation was not significant. Components of net periodic pension cost for the Company’s defined and multiemployer pension plans were as follows:

8. Fair Value Measurements

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, the inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

• Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. We value assets and liabilities included in this level using dealer and broker quotations, certain pricing models, bid prices, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. For the Company, the only assets and liabilities that are adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis are derivative financial instruments.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company is directly and indirectly affected by changes in certain market conditions. These changes in market conditions may adversely impact the Company's financial performance and are referred to as "market risks." The Company, when deemed appropriate, uses derivatives as a risk management tool to mitigate the potential impact of certain market risks. The primary market risk managed by the Company through the use of derivative instruments is foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for trading purposes.

The Company has entered into forward contracts to buy or sell a quantity of a currency at a predetermined future date, and at a predetermined rate or price to mitigate uncertainty and volatility, and to cover underlying exposures to certain payments in currencies other than the functional currency. The Company has not designated these contracts for hedge accounting treatment and, therefore, the gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in other income (loss). In first quarters of 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized gains of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to these forward contracts.

Derivatives are carried at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in the line item accrued expenses and other current liabilities. As of March 29, 2013, the fair value of outstanding derivative financial instruments was not significant. As of December 31, 2012, derivatives totaled $(0.2) million. The fair values of foreign exchange contracts were determined using quotations from financial institutions and were classified as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company records assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges.

In the first quarter of 2013, the Company recorded losses of approximately $1.6 million in other operating charges related to the reclassification of land and buildings to assets held for sale. These losses, incurred as part of the Company's restructuring activities in the European Engineered Products segment, represent the difference between the carrying value prior to the reclassification and the fair value. The fair value of assets held for sale was determined based on the expected selling price less costs incurred to sell and was classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The current fair value of assets held for sale totaled $1.9 million as of March 29, 2013 and is recorded in other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company did not record any impairment charges related to assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the quarter ended March 30, 2012.

12

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents; receivables; accounts payable and accrued expenses; and loans and notes payable approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term maturities of these instruments.

The fair value of our long-term debt is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on dealer quoted prices for our debt instruments based on recent transactions obtained from various sources. As of March 29, 2013, the carrying amount and fair value of our Senior Secured Notes, were $375.0 million and $367.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2012, the carrying amount and fair value of our Senior Secured Notes, were $375.0 million and $348.8 million, respectively.

9. Other Operating Charges

Other operating charges incurred by operating segment were as follows:

	Three months ended
	March 29, 2013		March 30, 2012
	(in thousands)
U.S. Residential Products	$	124	$	5
U.S. Commercial Products	87		26
European Roll Coated Aluminum	146		484
European Engineered Products	2,210		77
Other Non-Allocated	207		250
Total other operating charges	$	2,774	$	842

Other operating charges include non-recurring items, primarily related to severance and restructuring activities. Other operating charges of $2.8 million were primarily comprised of restructuring and relocation initiatives in the European Engineered Products segment including a $1.6 million loss related to the reclassification of land and buildings from property, plant and equipment to assets held for sale and $0.6 million of severance and relocation costs. These initiatives include the relocation from multiple plant facilities into one operating location and are intended to reduce overhead costs and streamline operations. The remaining $0.6 million of other operating charges are comprised primarily of severance and relocation costs related to various organizational initiatives to reduce operating costs and improve efficiencies.

In the first quarter of 2012, other operating charges of $0.8 million were primarily comprised of severance and relocation costs related to various restructuring and reorganizational initiatives in both the United States and Europe.

10. Segment Information

The Company manages its business and serves its customers through reportable segments differentiated by product type, end market, and geography. The Company's four reportable segments are described below:

U.S. Residential Products—The U.S. Residential Products segment utilizes aluminum, steel, copper and vinyl to produce residential roof drainage products, including preformed gutters, downspouts, elbows, soffit, drip edge, fascia, flashing, snow guards and related accessories. These products are used primarily for the repair, replacement or enhancement of residential roof drainage systems. The Company sells these products to home improvement retailers, lumber yards, distributors and contractors from manufacturing and distribution facilities throughout North America. The Company also produces specialty made-to-order vinyl replacement windows and aluminum patio and awning components sold primarily to home improvement contractors in the western U.S.

13

U.S. Commercial Products—The U.S. Commercial Products segment utilizes various materials, including steel coil, aluminum coil and fiberglass to create various products with commercial applications, including roofing and siding panels, ridge caps, flashing, trim, soffit and other accessories as well as sidewall components, siding and other exterior components for the towable RV, cargo and manufactured housing markets. The Company sells these products to builders, contractors, lumber yards, home improvement retailers, OEMs, and RV manufacturers from manufacturing and distribution facilities located throughout the U.S. These products are used in the construction of a wide variety of small scale commercial, agricultural and industrial building types on either wood or metal frames, manufactured homes, and towable RVs.

European Roll Coated Aluminum—The European Roll Coated Aluminum segment uses a roll coating process to apply paint to bare aluminum coil and, to a lesser extent, bare steel coil in order to produce specialty coated coil, which the Company also processes into specialty coated sheets and panels. The Company sells these products to building panel manufacturers, contractors and UK “holiday home,” RV and transportation OEMs throughout Europe and in parts of Asia. The Company’s customers use its specialty coated metal products to manufacture, among other things, RV sidewalls, commercial roofing panels, interior ceiling panels, and liner panels for shipping containers. The Company produces and distributes these roll coated products from facilities located in the Netherlands and the UK.

European Engineered Products—The European Engineered Products segment utilizes aluminum and vinyl extrusions to produce residential windows, doors and shower enclosures. These products are sold to home improvement retailers, distributors and factory‑built “holiday home” builders in the UK. The Company also produces windows used in the operator compartments of heavy equipment, components sold to suppliers to automotive OEMs in Western Europe and RV doors. The Company produces and distributes these engineered products from facilities in France and the UK and has developed extensive in-house manufacturing capabilities, including powder coating, glass cutting, anodizing and glass toughening.

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based primarily on segment income or (loss) from operations. Expenses, income and assets that are not segment specific relate to the holding company and business development activities conducted for the overall benefit of the Company, and accordingly, are not attributable to the Company’s segments.

Business Overview

We are a leading international producer of metal and vinyl products sold to the residential repair and remodel, commercial construction and recreational vehicle (RV) markets primarily in North America and Europe. We are a leader in several niche product categories, including preformed roof-drainage products sold in the U.S., metal roofing and siding for post frame construction in the U.S., and aluminum siding for towable RVs in the U.S. and Europe.

Our customers are located predominantly throughout North America and Europe and include distributors, contractors and home improvement retailers, as well as RV, transportation and other original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs. We have extensive in-house manufacturing and distribution capabilities for our more than 10,000 unique products and operate through a network consisting of 36 facilities, including 31 located in North America and five located in Europe. We have over 50 years of experience manufacturing building products and RV exterior components, including our time as a division of our former parent, Alumax Inc., or Alumax, a fully integrated aluminum producer acquired by Alcoa Inc. in 1998. We have operated as an independent company since 1996 when our division was acquired in a management-led buyout.     

Results of Operations

Our financial performance is affected by, among other factors, underlying trends in the United States and Europe that influence demand for products sold to residential repair and remodeling, commercial construction and RV markets:

• Our building products sold for residential repair and remodeling activities include roof drainage products, vinyl windows, patios and awnings, and doors. Projects that utilize many of our roof drainage repair and remodeling products are often low cost activities that are necessary to prevent home damage as a result of wear and tear or weather damage. Roof drainage repair projects are often low cost and non‑discretionary in nature. Repair and remodeling activity related to products other than roof drainage are typically higher cost and driven by turnover and aging of housing stock, consumer sentiment, availability of home equity and consumer financing and, in the case of our vinyl window products, consumer interest in energy efficiency.

• Our building products sold for commercial construction include, in the United States, light gauge steel and aluminum roofing and siding panels, trim and hardware and, in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, roll coated aluminum coil and sheet. Demand for these products is driven by consumer confidence, interest rates, consumer disposable income, the strength of agricultural markets, consumer access to affordable financing and commercial construction trends.

• Our commercial products sold to the RV market include siding and roofing. Demand for these RV products is driven by trends in disposable income, interest rates and general economic conditions, as well as similar demographic trends relating to the increased proportion of the United States and European population in the 55 through 74 year old age group, who serve as an important source of demand for our RV products.

Our sales volumes have historically been higher in the second and third quarters due to the seasonal demand of the building products markets served. Our working capital needs have been at their highest during these periods as well.

Three months ended March 29, 2013 Compared to the Three months ended March 30, 2012.

The following table sets forth net sales and income (loss) from operations data by segment for the three months ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012:

Totals	$	172.5	$	198.7	(13.2	)%	$	(7.4	)	$	(0.3	)	(2,366.7	)%

Net Sales. Net sales include revenue recognized from the sales of our products less provisions for returns, allowances, rebates and discounts. Our net sales declined$26.2 million, or 13.2%, to $172.5 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $198.7 million in the first quarter of 2012. Net sales for the first quarter of 2013 in both our U.S. and European operating segments were negatively impacted by severe winter weather conditions which we believe resulted in the delay of residential repair and remodel and commercial construction activities. For our U.S. operating segments, the impact of the severe winter weather was compounded by mild winter weather experienced in first quarter of 2012, which we believe resulted in higher than normal sales activity in the prior year quarter. Additionally, our European segments continue to be negatively impacted by economic uncertainty and reduced consumer confidence in the end markets we serve. Accordingly, demand from our European customers weakened compared to the first quarter of 2012. Foreign currency translation did not have a significant impact on net sales during the quarter.

Total net sales for our U.S. segments declined$18.1 million, or 14.5%, to $106.7 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $124.8 million in the first quarter of 2012.

Net sales of our U.S. Residential Products segment declined$8.5 million, or 14.0%, to $52.1 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $60.6 million in the first quarter of 2012. Demand for our roof drainage, roof edge and related products in both the home center and distributor markets were negatively impacted by severe winter weather conditions throughout much of the U.S. We believe the severe winter weather in the current year, combined with unusually warm weather in the first quarter of 2012, was the primary cause of the significant decline in net sales from the prior year quarter. Net sales were also negatively impacted by lower sales prices as a result of declines in aluminum raw material costs. These declines were partially offset by modest improvements in demand for our patio covers and vinyl window products in the western U.S.

Net sales of our U.S. Commercial Products segment declined$9.6 million, or 15.0%, to $54.6 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $64.2 million in the first quarter of 2012. The decline in net sales is primarily due to lower demand in the post frame construction markets as a result of construction delays due to excessive snow fall and extreme weather conditions throughout many of our core sales territories in the United States. Demand for products sold to original equipment manufacturers in the RV and transportation markets and demand from distributors for specialty coated aluminum coil also decreased. We estimate that lower sales prices as a result of lower steel and aluminum raw material costs in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 represented approximately $2.7 million of the decrease in net sales.

Total net sales for our European segments declined$8.1 million, or 11.0%, to $65.8 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $73.9 million in the first quarter of 2012. Net sales declines were primarily the result of weakened demand as a result of continuing economic uncertainty in Europe. The European economic crisis has resulted in the delay and curtailment of architectural and industrial projects and lower consumer confidence has resulted in declining demand in the transportation and caravan markets throughout Europe. The lagging economy was further impacted by severe winter weather throughout much of Europe which we believe also negatively impacted commercial construction activities and resulted in lower demand in several of our key markets. Foreign currency translation did not have a significant impact on net sales during the quarter.

25

Net sales of our European Roll Coated Aluminum segment declined$6.0 million, or 11.1%, to $48.2 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $54.2 million in the first quarter of 2012. The decline in net sales was primarily due to lower demand for specialty coated coil and panels used in architectural and industrial projects and sold to OEMs in the transportation industry. Demand in these markets has been negatively impacted by the continuing economic crisis in Europe which has resulted in delays and curtailment of architectural and other large scale projects as a result of economic uncertainty. We believe that unfavorable weather conditions also negatively impacted demand due to construction delays for commercial construction activities.

Net sales of our European Engineered Products segment declined$2.1 million, or 10.7%, to $17.6 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $19.7 million in the first quarter of 2012. Demand in this segment has been negatively impacted by the continuing economic crisis in Europe. Specifically, declines in net sales were primarily the result of lower demand for engineered components sold to suppliers in the transportation market and lower demand for residential windows, doors and shower enclosures sold to distributors and home improvement retailers in the United Kingdom. Sales declines in these markets were partially offset by increased demand for factory built holiday homes in the United Kingdom primarily as a result of increased production at a significant holiday home manufacturer.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold includes the cost of raw materials, manufacturing labor, packaging, utilities, freight, maintenance and other elements of manufacturing overhead. Cost of goods sold declined$17.4 million, or 10.4%, to $149.2 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $166.6 million in the first quarter of 2012. The decline in cost of goods sold is primarily related to volume declines in both our U.S. and European operating segments. Cost of goods sold also decreased as a result of lower aluminum and steel raw material costs in the current quarter compared to the prior year. Higher freight costs and higher labor costs as a result of temporary production inefficiencies during the relocation and consolidation of multiple plant locations in the UK partially offset the decline in costs of goods sold. Foreign currency translation did not have a significant impact on cost of goods sold during the quarter.

Selling and General. Selling and general expenses include salaries, benefits, incentive compensation, insurance, travel and entertainment and other administrative costs. Selling and general expenses declined$3.5 million, or 15.3%, to $19.4 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $22.9 million in the first quarter of 2012. Organizational initiatives in both North America and Europe including the rationalization of our manufacturing and distribution foot print and the achievement of production efficiency gains and procurement savings resulted in an overall reduction in selling and general costs. These initiatives, while undertaken in response to continued relative softness in our demand, are expected to contribute to higher levels of operating performance as markets recover. Foreign currency translation did not have a material impact on selling and general costs during the quarter.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization declined$0.1 million, or 1.1%, to $8.6 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $8.7 million in the first quarter of 2012.

Other Operating Charges.Other operating charges are comprised of non-recurring or other unusual costs such as restructuring initiatives, facility closures, relocation, severance, and acquisition costs. Other operating charges of $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2013increased$2.0 million compared to $0.8 million in the first quarter of 2012.

In the first quarter of 2013, other operating charges of approximately $2.8 million are primarily comprised of restructuring and relocation initiatives in the European Engineered Products segment including a $1.6 million loss related to the reclassification of land and buildings from property, plant and equipment to assets held for sale and $0.6 million of severance and relocation costs. These initiatives include the relocation from multiple plant facilities in the UK into one operating location and are intended to reduce overhead costs and streamline operations. The remaining $0.6 million of other operating charges for the quarter are comprised primarily of severance and relocation costs in both the U.S. and Europe related to various organizational initiatives to reduce operating costs and improve efficiencies.

In the first quarter of 2012, other operating charges of approximately $0.8 million consisted primarily of severance and relocation costs related to cost savings initiatives and restructuring activities in both the U.S. and Europe.

Income (Loss) from Operations. As a result of the aforementioned items, our income from operations declined$(7.1) million, to a loss of $(7.4) million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to loss of $(0.3) million for the first quarter of 2012.

Income (loss) from operations of our U.S. Residential Products segment declined$(3.7) million to a loss of $(0.2) million for the first quarter of 2013 compared to income of $3.5 million for the first quarter of 2012. This decrease is primarily related to volume declines as a result of severe winter weather conditions in the first quarter of 2013. Lower selling prices necessitated by lower aluminum costs also negatively impacted income from operations. These declines were partially offset by lower selling and general costs as a result of continued organizational initiatives to reduce operating costs and streamline operations.

Income (loss) from operations of our U.S. Commercial Products segment declined$(1.3) million to a loss of $(4.4) million for the first quarter of 2013 compared to a loss of $(3.1) million in the first quarter of 2012. This decrease is primarily the result of

26

lower sales volumes compared to 2012, offset by cost savings as a result of ongoing operational initiatives including consolidation of operations at certain plant locations.

Income from operations of our European Roll Coated Aluminum segment declined$(0.1) million to $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $2.6 million in the first quarter of 2012. Declines in income from operations as a result of lower sales volumes were generally offset by reductions to selling and general costs as a result of cost savings initiatives to reduce overhead and other operating costs in response to the continuing economic uncertainty throughout Europe. Income from operations was also negatively impacted by changes in product mix including a decline in sales to the RV market which generally have higher profit margins than products sold in the architectural and industrial markets. Despite these challenges, operating margin increased from 4.8% for the first quarter of 2012 to 5.2% for the first quarter of 2013.

Income (loss) from operations of our European Engineered Products segment declined$(2.2) million to a loss of $(2.6) million for the first quarter of 2013 compared to a loss of $(0.4) million in the first quarter of 2012. The decline was primarily due to $(2.2) million of non-recurring other operating charges primarily related to severance and relocation activities in the U.K. which are expected to streamline operations and provide cost savings in future periods. Lower sales volumes in this segment were generally offset by lower selling and general expenses in the first quarter of 2013.

Interest Expense. Interest expense for first quarter of 2013 and for the first quarter of 2012 totaled approximately $13.6 million and $13.5 million, respectively. Interest expense is primarily comprised of interest on our Senior Secured Notes, Senior Unsecured Loan Facility, ABL Credit Facility, and Dutch Revolving Credit Facility.

Other Income (Loss), Net.Other income (loss), net includes translation gains and losses on intercompany obligations, gains and losses on asset disposals, interest income and other income or expense items of a non-operating nature.

Other loss, net in the first quarter of 2013 of $(6.3) million consisted primarily of translation losses on intercompany obligations due to the strengthening of the euro compared to the U.S. dollar totaling $(7.0) million, which were partially offset by gains of approximately $0.3 million on forward foreign currency contracts.

Other income, net in the first quarter of 2012 of $6.0 million consisted primarily of translation gains on intercompany obligations of $5.7 million and a gain of $0.5 million on the sale of assets associated with the exit of our U.S. RV door product line in the U.S. Commercial Products segment during the first quarter of 2012. These gains were partially offset by losses of approximately $(0.2) million on forward foreign currency contracts.

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. We reported an income tax provision of $0.7 million for the first quarter of 2013 compared to a provision of $0.3 million for the first quarter of 2012. Our effective tax rates were 2.7% for the three months ended March 29, 2013 and 4.4% for the three months ended March 30, 2012.

The effective rate for the first quarter of 2013 differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes, lower tax rates of our foreign operations as compared to the U.S. federal rates, U.S. tax impact of non-deductible foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and recognition of valuation allowances related to net losses in the UK and for U.S. federal and state net operating losses.

The effective rate for the first quarter of 2012 differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes, lower tax rates of our foreign operations as compared to the U.S. federal rates, U.S. tax impact of non-deductible foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and recognition of valuation allowances related to net losses in the UK and for U.S. federal and state net operating losses.

Our effective tax rate reflects a full valuation allowance on losses in the United States. Without a valuation allowance, earnings from the United States are generally taxed at rates higher than the foreign statutory tax rates. The 2013 effective tax rate reflects a full valuation allowance on losses in the United Kingdom. A change in the mix of pretax income from the various tax jurisdictions can have a significant impact on our periodic effective tax rate.

Net Loss. Our net loss was $28.1 million for the first quarter of 2013 compared to a net loss of $8.1 million for the first quarter of 2012.

27

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are from cash and cash equivalents, cash from operations and borrowings under our ABL Credit Facility and Dutch Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 29, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $4.2 million. Net cash used in operating activities was $23.3 million for the three months ended March 29, 2013 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $0.7 million for the three months ended March 30, 2012. We believe the decline in operating cash flow over the prior year quarter reflects the combined impact of extreme winter weather in the current year, which delayed current year sales activity, and the impact of mild winter weather in the first quarter of 2012, which resulted in higher sales activity and improved operating cash flow in the 1st quarter of 2013. As a result, inventory levels have increased as of first quarter 2013 in order to meet demand for the peak sales season in the second and third quarters and the anticipated release of pent up demand as a result of extreme weather conditions. As of March 29, 2013, we had $26.3 million outstanding and availability of $18.0 million under our ABL Credit Facility and $11.5 million outstanding and availability of $7.7 million on our Dutch Revolving Credit Facility.

On March 25, 2013, the ABL Credit Facility was amended to, among other items, (i) extend the maturity date to January 1, 2016 or in the event the maturity date of the Senior Secured Notes and Senior Unsecured Loan Facilities are extended to a date that is ninety days or more following March 1, 2018, to March 1, 2018, (ii) reduce the Minimum Excess Availability Reserve to $1.0 million from 20% of outstanding borrowings, and (iii) reduce the excess availability threshold from 15.0% to 12.5%. In the event excess availability falls below the 12.5% threshold, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million, and after November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.15 to 1.00.

Our ability to make debt service payments, refinance our indebtedness, maintain capital assets and satisfy our other capital and commercial commitments will depend on our ability to generate cash flow in the future. This ability, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors. While these factors are beyond our control, we frequently invest sources of liquidity with the intent of improving our ability to generate future cash flow. Such investments have, and may in the future, include product development initiatives, restructuring and growth oriented capital expenditures, and business acquisitions. We believe our March 29, 2013 cash levels, together with our cash from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facilities will be adequate to fund our cash requirements based on our current level of operations for at least the next twelve months.

The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Euramax and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make certain distributions, make other restricted payments, make investments, incur liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants. These limitations also prohibit Euramax's ability to transfer cash or assets to Euramax Holdings, whether by dividend, loan, or otherwise. The Indenture also contains customary events of default. If Euramax undergoes a change of control (as defined in the Indenture), Euramax will be required to make an offer to repurchase the notes at 101% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.

Senior Unsecured Loan Facility

The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility was issued at 98% of par on March 18, 2011 and matures on October 1, 2016.The difference between the consideration received and the aggregate face amount of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility ($1.7 million) is being amortized and recorded in interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the term of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility. The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility bears interest at 12.25% per year in the event no election is made to pay interest in kind (PIK), and 14.25% (7.875% cash pay and 6.375% PIK) per annum in the event a PIK election is made. The Company may make a PIK election for up to six quarters during the term of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility. The interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility at March 29, 2013 was 12.25%, as the Company has not made a PIK election.

Euramax may prepay outstanding amounts under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility, in whole or in part, at the prices (expressed as a percentage of the loans) set forth below:

Prepayment Date	Percentage
On or after the second anniversary of the closing but prior to the third anniversary thereof	103	%
On or after the third anniversary of the closing but prior to the fourth anniversary thereof	102	%
On or after the fourth anniversary of the closing	100	%

Upon a change of control, Euramax may be required to prepay all or a portion of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.All obligations under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and Amerimax Richmond Company, a 100% wholly owned domestic subsidiary of Euramax, and any future direct and indirect wholly‑owned domestic material restricted subsidiaries subject to certain exceptions.

The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility contains restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Euramax and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make certain distributions, make other restricted payments, make investments, incur liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants.

The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, including among other things, payment defaults, covenant defaults, cross‑defaults to certain indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, material judgments, and failure of any guaranty supporting the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility to be in force and effect in any material respect. If such an event of default occurs, the administrative agent would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility and all actions permitted to be taken by an unsecured creditor.

ABL Credit Facility

On March 18, 2011, the Company, Euramax, and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, entered into the ABL Credit Facility with Regions Bank, as Collateral and Administrative Agent, Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, as Co-Collateral Agent, and Regions Business Capital, as Sole Lead Arranger and Bookrunner. The ABL Credit Facility provides for revolving credit financing of up to $70 million, subject to borrowing base availability. The ABL Credit Facility was amended on March 25, 2013 to, among other items, (i) extend the maturity date to January 1, 2016 or in the event the maturity date of the Senior Secured Notes and Senior Unsecured Loan Facility are extended to a date that is ninety days or more following March 1, 2018, to March 1, 2018, (ii) reduce the Minimum Excess Availability Reserve to $1.0 million from 20% of outstanding borrowings, and (iii) reduce the excess availability threshold from 15.0% to 12.5%. In the event excess availability falls below the 12.5% threshold, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million, and after November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.15 to 1.00.

Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the prime commercial lending rate published by Regions Bank as its “prime rate” for commercial loans, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) the one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is dependent upon the type of borrowings Euramax has made under the ABL Credit Facility. At March 29, 2013, the applicable margins were 2.50% and 1.50% for LIBOR and Base Rate borrowings, respectively. The applicable margins are subject to the Company's corporate credit rating as determined from time to time by Standard and Poor’s and Moody’s Investors Service and range from 2.00% to 2.75% for LIBOR borrowings and 1.00% to 1.75% for Base Rate borrowings. The ABL Credit Facility requires Euramax to pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.375% to 0.5%, based on the unutilized commitments. Euramax is also required to pay customary letter of credit fees, including, without limitation, a letter of credit fee equal to the applicable margin on revolving credit LIBOR loans and fronting fees.

All obligations under the ABL Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company, Amerimax Richmond Company, a 100% wholly owned domestic subsidiary of Euramax, and any future direct and indirect, wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries which are not borrowers. All obligations under the ABL Credit Facility and the guarantees of those obligations are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a first‑priority security interest in Euramax’s and the guarantors’ inventory and accounts receivable and related assets, which we refer to as the ABL Collateral, and a junior‑priority security interest in (i) substantially all of Euramax’s and the guarantors’ assets (other than inventory and accounts receivable and related assets, which assets secure our ABL Credit Facility on a first priority basis) and (ii) all of Euramax’s capital stock and the capital stock of each material domestic restricted subsidiary owned by Euramax or a guarantor and 65% of the voting capital stock and 100% of any non-voting capital stock of foreign restricted subsidiaries directly owned by Euramax or a guarantor, which we refer to collectively as the Notes Collateral. The security interests are granted in accordance with the Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement dated March 18, 2011, by and among us, the other guarantors party thereto and Regions Bank as Agent.

The ABL Credit Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for this type of financing, including, but not limited to certain financial covenants in the event excess availability is less than 12.5% of the lesser of the aggregate amount of commitments outstanding at such time and the borrowing base. If excess availability falls below the 12.5% threshold, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million for the immediately preceding twelve month period. After November 30, 2013, Euramax would be required to meet a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.15 to 1.00 if excess availability falls below 12.5%. As of March 29, 2013, excess availability exceeded 12.5% of the borrowing base; therefore, Euramax was not required to meet the Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. Additionally, restrictive covenants limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to incur liens, incur, assume or permit to exist additional indebtedness, guarantees and other contingent obligations, consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets, pay dividends or make other distributions, make certain loans and investments, amend or otherwise alter the terms of documents related to certain of their indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates and prepay certain indebtedness, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants.

Dutch Revolving Credit Facility

In February 2012, our wholly-owned subsidiary in the Netherlands, Euramax Coated Products, BV, entered into the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility with Rabobank Roermond (Rabobank). The Dutch Revolving Credit Facility provides revolving credit financing of up to EUR 15 million and matures on April 1, 2016. Borrowings under the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum which is the aggregate of the average one month Euribor rate over a calendar month plus a margin of 2% and requires payment of a Credit Fee of 0.35% per annum on the nominal amount of the credit facility. All obligations under the Dutch Revolver are secured by a mortgage on the real estate of Euramax Coated Products, BV, a pledge on present and future machinery and present and future accounts receivable balances of Euramax Coated Products, BV.

The Dutch Revolving Credit Facility contains financial and non-financial covenants customary for this type of financing. Financial Covenants include, but are not limited to a minimum annual EBITDA target and a minimum requirement for risk-bearing capital, for Euramax Coated Products, BV both measured at the Company's fiscal year-end. The Dutch Revolving Credit Facility also contains a clause limiting further indebtedness.

Covenant Ratios Contained in the Indenture, the ABL Credit Facility and the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility.    

The Indenture and the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility contain two material covenants which utilize financial ratios. These covenants do not require Euramax to maintain specified ratio levels at all times or at regular intervals. However, if Euramax elected to incur additional indebtedness under the ratio test without having availability under other debt baskets, or make restricted payments under the restricted payment covenant without having availability under our restricted payment baskets, non-compliance with these covenants could result in an event of default under the indenture and, under certain circumstances, a requirement to immediately repay all amounts outstanding under the Notes and could trigger a cross-default under our Senior Secured Credit Facility or other indebtedness we may incur in the future. First, Euramax is permitted to incur indebtedness under the Indenture and the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility if the ratio of Consolidated Cash Flow to Fixed Charges on a pro forma basis (referred to in the Indenture and the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility as the "Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio") is greater than 2:1 or, if the ratio is less, only if the indebtedness falls into specified debt baskets, including, for example, a credit agreement debt basket, an existing debt basket, a capital lease and purchase money debt basket, an intercompany debt basket, a permitted guarantee debt basket, a hedging debt basket, a receivables transaction debt basket and a general debt basket. In addition, under the Indenture and Senior Unsecured Loan Facility, Euramax is permitted to incur secured debt only if the ratio of Consolidated Secured Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow on a pro forma basis (referred to in the Indenture and the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility as the "Secured Debt Ratio") is equal to or less than 3.75:1.00. Second, the restricted payment covenant provides that Euramax may declare certain dividends, or repurchase equity securities, in certain circumstances only if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is greater than 2:1. In addition, under the ABL Credit Facility, in the event excess availability falls below 12.5% of the lesser of the aggregate amount of commitments outstanding at such time and the borrowing base, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million, and after November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.15 to 1.00.

The Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and the Secured Debt Ratio under the Indenture only limit the ability of Euramax to incur additional indebtedness and the failure of the Company to be within these ratios would not be an event of default under the Indentrue or Senior Unsecured Loan Facility. Euramax has not incurred any additional indebtedness or made any restricted payments pursuant to the provisions in the Indenture and the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility that rely on such ratios.

The provisions of the ABL Credit Facility, only require Euramax to meet the Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio under the ABL Credit Facility when excess availability is less than 12.5%. As of March 29, 2013, because excess availability under the ABL Credit Facility exceeded 12.5% of the borrowing base, Euramax was not required to meet the Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio under the ABL Credit Facility. The Company does not expect excess availability to fall below 12.5% during the next twelve months.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the three months ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012:

	Three months ended
	March 29, 2013			March 30, 2012
	(in thousands)
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(23,328	)	$	(666	)
Net cash used in investing activities	(2,110		)	(257		)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	19,137			(252		)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash	464			36
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(5,837	)	$	(1,139	)

Three months ended March 29, 2013 Compared to the Three months ended March 30, 2012.

Operating Activities. Cash used in operating activities in the first three months of 2013 was approximately $23.3 million compared to cash used in operating activities of $0.7 million for the first three months of 2012, a decrease in cash flow of $22.6 million. The decline in operating cash flow over the prior year quarter reflects the combined impact of extreme winter weather in the current year, which delayed current year sales activity, and the impact of mild winter weather in the first quarter of 2012, which resulted in higher sales activity and improved operating cash flow in the prior year quarter. As a result, inventory levels have increased as of first quarter 2013 in order to meet demand for the peak sales season in the second and third quarters and the anticipated release of pent up demand as a result of extreme weather conditions. Increases in working capital items in the first three months of 2013 are consistent with the seasonality of our business and are necessary to support net sales growth.

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities in the first three months of 2013 was $2.1 million. Capital expenditures of $2.2 million were offset by asset sales of approximately $0.1 million in the first three months of 2013.

Cash used in investing activities in the first three months of 2012 was $0.3 million. Capital expenditures of $1.4 million in the first three months of 2012 were offset by $1.1 million of proceeds from the sale of assets.

Financing Activities. Cash provided by financing activities during the first three months of 2013 was $19.1 million and consisted primarily of net borrowings on our Dutch Revolving Credit Facility totaling $11.5 million and net borrowings on our ABL Credit Facility totaling $7.8 million. Net cash provided by these borrowings was partially offset by $0.2 million of debt issuance costs related to the amendment of the ABL Credit Facility.

Cash used in financing activities during the first three months of 2012 was $0.3 million and consisted of net repayments under the ABL Credit Facility of $0.2 million and debt issuance costs of $0.1 million.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures for the first three months of 2013 and the first three months of 2012 were $2.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Capital expenditures in each period relate primarily to purchases and upgrades of coil coating, fabricating, transportation and material moving and handling equipment.

Seasonality; Inflation

Our sales have historically been seasonal, with the second and third quarters typically accounting for our highest sales volumes. First and fourth quarter sales volumes are generally lower primarily due to reduced repair and remodel activity and reduced activity in the building and construction industry as a result of colder and more inclement weather in our geographic end markets, as well as customer plant shutdowns in the RV and automotive industries during holidays and model changeovers.

32

Our cost of goods sold is subject to inflationary pressures and price fluctuations of the raw materials we use, particularly the cost of aluminum and steel. In addition, we are party to certain leases that contain escalator clauses contingent on increases based on changes in the Consumer Price Index. We believe that inflation and/or deflation had a minimal impact on our overall results of operations during the three months ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012.

Working Capital Management

Working capital decreased$2.6 million, or 3.1%, to $81.4 million as of March 29, 2013 from $84.0 million as of December 31, 2012. The change in working capital is primarily attributable to current borrowings on our Dutch Revolving Credit Facility and increases in accounts payable, which resulted in an overall decline in working capital. These items were offset by seasonal increases in accounts receivable and inventory. We historically experience an increase in inventory and accounts receivable during the first half of the year as many customers in our markets increase purchases in the spring and gradually decline throughout the second half of the year.

Accounts receivable of $88.8 million as of March 29, 2013increased$14.9 million, or 20.2%, from $73.9 million as of December 31, 2012. As of March 29, 2013, days sales outstanding in accounts receivable were 46.8 days, compared to 35.5 days as of December 31, 2012. The primary reason for the increase in accounts receivable and days sales outstanding was a 17.1% increase in net sales for the month ended March 29, 2013 compared to the month ended December 31, 2012. Typically the majority of outstanding receivables are generated from net sales in the preceding two months. However, the significant increase in sales activity during the final month of the first quarter which we believe is primarily due to improving weather conditions, resulted in an increase of uncollected current receivables for the current quarter.

Inventories of $104.4 million as of March 29, 2013increased$15.1 million, or 16.9%, from $89.3 million as of December 31, 2012, primarily as a result of seasonal increases in demand. As of March 29, 2013, days sales in inventories were 63.7 days, compared to 50.3 days as of December 31, 2012, which reflects higher inventory levels necessary to support higher sales activity in the peak sales seasons.

Accounts payable of $67.5 million as of March 29, 2013increased$11.6 million, or 20.8%, from $55.9 million as of December 31, 2012. Higher accounts payable balances reflect increasing inventory levels throughout the first quarter to support higher demand in peak seasons.

Current portion of long-term debt totaled $11.5 million as of March 29, 2013. The Current portion of long-term debt consisted of outstanding borrowings on the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility totaling $11.5 million at March 29, 2013 compared to no outstanding borrowings at December 31, 2012.

Critical Accounting Policies

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In order to apply these principles, management must make judgments, assumptions and estimates based on the best available information at the time. Management bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For the three months ended March 29, 2013, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in the section “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 29, 2013.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in currency exchange rates (primarily the euro and British pound sterling), interest rates and commodity prices (primarily aluminum and steel).

33

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

Approximately 38.2% of our net sales for the three months ended March 29, 2013 originated in Europe. Although our sales outside the United States are subject to exchange rate fluctuations, we do not use derivatives to manage our foreign currency exchange risks resulting from foreign sales. Changes in foreign exchange rates affect interest expense recorded in relation to our foreign currency denominated debt instruments.

Interest Rate Risk

We have market risk related to changing interest rates. Although we historically entered into interest rate agreements to reduce the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our interest expense, we had no interest rate swaps in the first quarter of 2012 or 2013. We may enter into additional interest rate swaps in the future to manage our interest rate risk.

Commodity Price Risk

From time to time we enter into contracts for the purchase of aluminum and steel at market values in an attempt to assure a margin on specific customer orders. We may also choose to commit to purchase a specific quantity of aluminum over a specified time period at a fixed price, exposing us to the difference between the fixed price and the market price of aluminum during that time period. We do not use hedges to manage our long-term risks relating to market prices of steel and aluminum raw materials because we are generally able to pass on changes in market prices to customers.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (its principal executive officer) and the Chief Financial Officer (its principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d- 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) for the quarter ended March 29, 2013. Based upon that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 29, 2013.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 29, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently a party to any legal proceeding the result of which it believes could have a material adverse impact upon its business, financial position or results of operations.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes in the risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

On March 25, 2013, the ABL Credit Facility was amended to, among other items, (i) extend the maturity date to January 1, 2016 or in the event the maturity date of the Senior Secured Notes and Senior Unsecured Loan Facilities are extended to a date that is ninety days or more following March 1, 2018, to March 1, 2018, (ii) reduce the Minimum Excess Availability Reserve to $1.0 million from 20% of outstanding borrowings, and (iii) reduce the excess availability threshold from 15.0% to 12.5%. In the event excess availability falls below the 12.5% threshold, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million, and after November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.15 to 1.00.

Senior Secured Notes

The Senior Secured Notes (the "Notes") were issued pursuant to an indenture, (the "Indenture"), dated March 18, 2011, among Euramax International, Inc ("Euramax"), the Company, and certain of its domestic subsidiaries as guarantors, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the Trustee.The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by Euramax Holdings, Inc., Euramax International, Inc., and Amerimax Richmond Company, a 100% wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of Euramax International, Inc. The Notes bear interest at 9.50% per year and mature on April 1, 2016, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased by Euramax. Interest is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each year.

The Notes may be redeemed at the option of Euramax, in whole or in part, under the conditions specified in the Indenture, at the following redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 1 of the years indicated:

Year	Percentage
2013	107.125	%
2014	104.750	%
2015 and thereafter	100.000	%

The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Euramax and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make certain distributions, make other restricted payments, make investments, incur liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants. These limitations also prohibit Euramax's ability to transfer cash or assets to Euramax Holdings, whether by dividend, loan or otherwise. The Indenture also contains customary events of default. If Euramax undergoes a change of control (as defined in the Indenture), Euramax will be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes at 101% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.

Senior Unsecured Loan Facility

The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility was issued at 98% of par on March 18, 2011 and matures on October 1, 2016.The difference between the consideration received and the aggregate face amount of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility ($1.7 million) is being amortized and recorded in interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the term of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility. The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility bears interest at 12.25% per year in the event no election is made to pay interest in kind (PIK), and 14.25% (7.875% cash pay and 6.375% PIK) per annum in the event a PIK election is made. The Company may make a PIK election for up to six quarters during the term of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility. The interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility at March 29, 2013 was 12.25%, as the Company has not made a PIK election.

Euramax may prepay outstanding amounts under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility, in whole or in part, at the prices (expressed as percentages of the loans) set forth below:

Prepayment Date	Percentage
On or after the second anniversary of the closing but prior to the third anniversary thereof	103	%
On or after the third anniversary of the closing but prior to the fourth anniversary thereof	102	%
On or after the fourth anniversary of the closing	100	%

Upon a change of control, Euramax may be required to prepay all or a portion of the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.All obligations under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and Amerimax Richmond Company, a 100% wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of Euramax, and any future direct and indirect wholly‑owned domestic material restricted subsidiaries.

The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility contains restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Euramax and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make certain distributions, make other restricted payments, make investments, incur liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants.

The Senior Unsecured Loan Facility contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, including among other things, payment defaults, covenant defaults, cross‑defaults to certain indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, material judgments, and failure of any guaranty supporting the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility to be in force and effect in any material respect. If such an event of default occurs, the administrative agent would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Senior Unsecured Loan Facility and all actions permitted to be taken by an unsecured creditor.

ABL Credit Facility

On March 18, 2011, the Company, Euramax, and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, entered into the ABL Credit Facility with Regions Bank, as Collateral and Administrative Agent, Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, as Co-Collateral Agent, and Regions Business Capital, as Sole Lead Arranger and Bookrunner. The ABL Credit Facility provides for revolving credit financing of up to $70 million, subject to borrowing base availability. The ABL Credit Facility was amended on March 25, 2013 to, among other items, (i) extend the maturity date to January 1, 2016 or in the event the maturity date of the Senior Secured Notes and Senior Unsecured Loan Facility are extended to a date that is ninety days or more following March 1, 2018, to March 1, 2018, (ii) reduce the Minimum Excess Availability Reserve to $1.0 million from 20% of outstanding borrowings, and (iii) reduce the excess availability threshold from 15.0% to 12.5%. In the event excess availability falls below the 12.5% threshold, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million, and after November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.15 to 1.00. At March 29, 2013, $18.0 million was available to be drawn on the ABL Facility.

Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the prime commercial lending rate published by Regions Bank as its “prime rate” for commercial loans, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) the one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is dependent upon the type of borrowings the Company has made under the ABL Credit Facility. At March 29, 2013, the applicable margins were 2.50% and 1.50% for LIBOR and Base Rate borrowings, respectively. The applicable margins are subject to Euramax’s corporate credit rating as determined from time to time by Standard and Poor’s and Moody’s Investors Service and range from 2.00% to 2.75% for LIBOR borrowings and 1.00% to 1.75% for Base Rate borrowings. The weighted average interest rate, including the applicable margin payable on outstanding borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility, at March 29, 2013 was 2.7%. The ABL Credit Facility requires the Company to pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.375% to 0.5%, based on the unutilized commitments. The Company is also required to pay customary letter of credit fees, including, without limitation, a letter of credit fee equal to the applicable margin on revolving credit LIBOR loans and fronting fees.

All obligations under the ABL Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company, Amerimax Richmond Company, a wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of Euramax, and any future direct and indirect wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries which are not borrowers. All obligations under the ABL Credit Facility are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a first‑priority security interest in Euramax’s and the Guarantors’ inventory and accounts receivable and related assets, referred to as the ABL Collateral, and a junior‑priority security interest in (i) substantially all of Euramax’s and the Guarantors’ assets (other than inventory and accounts receivable and related assets, which assets secure the ABL Credit Facility on a first priority basis) and (ii) all of Euramax’s capital stock and the capital stock of each material domestic restricted subsidiary owned by Euramax or a Guarantor and 65% of the voting capital stock and 100% of any non-voting capital stock of foreign restricted subsidiaries directly owned by Euramax or a Guarantor, which we refer to collectively as the Notes Collateral.

The ABL Credit Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for this type of financing, including, but not limited to certain financial covenants in the event excess availability is less than 12.5% of the lesser of the aggregate amount of commitments outstanding at such time and the borrowing base. If excess availability falls below the 12.5% threshold, Euramax would be required to meet, for the period from the amendment date to November 30, 2013, a Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million for the immediately preceding twelve month period. After November 30, 2013, Euramax would be required to meet a Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.15 to 1.00 if excess availability falls below 12.5%. As of March 29, 2013, excess availability exceeded 12.5% of the borrowing base; therefore, Euramax was not required to meet the Minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. Additionally, restrictive covenants limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to incur liens, incur, assume or permit to exist additional indebtedness, guarantees and other contingent obligations, consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets, pay dividends or make other distributions, make certain loans and investments, amend or otherwise alter the terms of documents related to certain of their indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates and prepay certain indebtedness, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants.

Dutch Revolving Credit Facility

In February 2012, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Euramax Coated Products, BV, entered into a revolving credit facility with Rabobank Roermond (the "Dutch Revolving Credit Facility"). The Dutch Revolving Credit Facility provides revolving credit financing of up to EUR 15 million and matures on April 1, 2016. Borrowings under the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum which is the aggregate of the average one month Euribor rate over a calendar month plus a margin of 2% and requires payment of a commitment fee of 0.35% per annum on the nominal amount of the credit facility. The weighted average interest rate, including the margin payable on outstanding borrowings under the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility, at March 29, 2013 was 2.4%. All obligations under the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a mortgage on the real estate of Euramax Coated Products, BV, a pledge on present and future machinery and present and future accounts receivable balances of Euramax Coated Products, BV. At March 29, 2013, $7.7 million was available to be drawn on the Dutch Revolving Credit Facility.

The Dutch Revolving Credit Facility contains financial and non-financial covenants customary for this type of financing. Financial Covenants include, but are not limited to, a minimum annual EBITDA target and a minimum amount of risk-bearing capital for Euramax Coated Products, BV both measured at the Company's fiscal year-end. The Dutch Revolving Credit Facility also contains a clause limiting further indebtedness. As of March 29, 2013, Euramax Coated Products, BV is in compliance with all covenants.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Euramax Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of all interim periods reported herein. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed.

The Company’s sales volumes have historically been higher in the second and third quarters due to the seasonal demand of the building products markets served. Accordingly, results for the three months ended March 29, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Each of our interim reporting periods, other than the fourth interim reporting period, ends on the Friday closest to the last day of the corresponding quarterly calendar period. The first quarter of 2013 and 2012 ended on March 29 and March 30, respectively. Our fourth interim reporting period and our fiscal year end on December 31 regardless of the day of the week on which it falls.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the FASB issued amendments to disclosure requirements for presentation of comprehensive income. The Standard requires prospective presentation of the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income and the respective line items in the Consolidated Statement of Operations which are impacted. The amendment is effective prospectively for periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company has included the required disclosure in Note 6, Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.

On March 18, 2011, Euramax Holdings, Inc. (presented as Parent in the following schedules), through its 100%-owned subsidiary, Euramax International, Inc. (presented as Issuer in the following schedules) issued the Notes. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by Euramax Holdings, Inc., Euramax International, Inc., and Amerimax Richmond Company, a 100% owned domestic subsidiary of Euramax International, Inc. All other subsidiaries of Euramax International, Inc., whether direct or indirect, do not guarantee the Senior Secured Notes (the "Non-Guarantors").

Additionally, the Notes are secured on a second priority basis by liens on all of the collateral (subject to certain exceptions) securing Euramax International, Inc.’s ABL Credit Facility. In the event that secured creditors exercise remedies with respect to Euramax International, Inc.'s pledged assets, the proceeds of the liquidation of those assets will first be applied to repay obligations secured by the first priority liens under the senior secured credit facilities and any other first priority obligations.

The following condensed consolidating financial statements present the results of operations, comprehensive operations, financial position and cash flows of (1) the Parent, (2) the Issuer, (3) the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, and (4) eliminations to arrive at the information for Euramax Holdings, Inc. on a consolidated basis.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Accounting, Policy

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Euramax Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of all interim periods reported herein. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed.

Fiscal Period, Policy

Each of our interim reporting periods, other than the fourth interim reporting period, ends on the Friday closest to the last day of the corresponding quarterly calendar period. The first quarter of 2013 and 2012 ended on March 29 and March 30, respectively.

Income Tax, Policy

The provision for income taxes for 2013 and 2012 are computed at the effective rate expected to be applicable in each respective full year using the statutory rates on a country by country basis, adjusted for changes in valuation allowances relating to the Company’s net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards.

Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, Pensions, Policy

The Company maintains a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all U.S. hourly employees (the U.S. Plan). In addition, the employees at Euramax Coated Products Limited and Ellbee Limited participate in a single employer pension plan (the UK Plan). The measurement date for the U.S. and UK plans is the last day of the fiscal year. The Company curtailed the accrual of participant benefits provided under the UK Plan effective March 31, 2009. This curtailment did not affect the timing for the payment of benefits earned under the UK Plan through the curtailment date. In January 2010, the Company's board of directors approved a motion to freeze future benefit accruals under the U.S. Pension Plan.

Fair Value Measurement, Policy

In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company records assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, the inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

• Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. We value assets and liabilities included in this level using dealer and broker quotations, certain pricing models, bid prices, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. For the Company, the only assets and liabilities that are adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis are derivative financial instruments.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents; receivables; accounts payable and accrued expenses; and loans and notes payable approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term maturities of these instruments.

Amounts reclassified from the defined benefit pension plan adjustments component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were recorded in selling and general expenses within the Consolidated Statement of Operations. There were no net tax effects related to the reclassification as a result of the full valuation allowances in the U.S. and UK in the current year. The accumulated tax effect related to the defined benefit pension plan adjustments component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was a benefit of $0.9 million as of March 29, 2013 and December 31, 2012. There are no tax impacts related to the foreign currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as the earnings of subsidiaries are considered to be permanently invested.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for 2013 and 2012 are computed at the effective rate expected to be applicable in each respective full year using the statutory rates on a country by country basis, adjusted for changes in valuation allowances relating to the Company’s net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards. The effective rates for the three month periods ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012, were 2.7% and 4.4%, respectively.

The effective rate for the three months ended March 29, 2013 differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes, lower tax rates of our foreign operations as compared to the U.S. federal rates, U.S. tax impact of foreign dividends and non-deductible foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and recognition of valuation allowances related to net losses in the U.K. and for U.S. federal and state net operating losses.

The effective rate for the three months ended March 30, 2012 differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes, lower tax rates of our foreign operations as compared to the U.S. federal rates, U.S. tax impact of foreign dividends and non-deductible foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and recognition of valuation allowances related to net losses in the U.K. and for U.S. federal and state net operating losses.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, the inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

• Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. We value assets and liabilities included in this level using dealer and broker quotations, certain pricing models, bid prices, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. For the Company, the only assets and liabilities that are adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis are derivative financial instruments.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company is directly and indirectly affected by changes in certain market conditions. These changes in market conditions may adversely impact the Company's financial performance and are referred to as "market risks." The Company, when deemed appropriate, uses derivatives as a risk management tool to mitigate the potential impact of certain market risks. The primary market risk managed by the Company through the use of derivative instruments is foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for trading purposes.

The Company has entered into forward contracts to buy or sell a quantity of a currency at a predetermined future date, and at a predetermined rate or price to mitigate uncertainty and volatility, and to cover underlying exposures to certain payments in currencies other than the functional currency. The Company has not designated these contracts for hedge accounting treatment and, therefore, the gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in other income (loss). In first quarters of 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized gains of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to these forward contracts.

Derivatives are carried at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in the line item accrued expenses and other current liabilities. As of March 29, 2013, the fair value of outstanding derivative financial instruments was not significant. As of December 31, 2012, derivatives totaled $(0.2) million. The fair values of foreign exchange contracts were determined using quotations from financial institutions and were classified as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company records assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges.

In the first quarter of 2013, the Company recorded losses of approximately $1.6 million in other operating charges related to the reclassification of land and buildings to assets held for sale. These losses, incurred as part of the Company's restructuring activities in the European Engineered Products segment, represent the difference between the carrying value prior to the reclassification and the fair value. The fair value of assets held for sale was determined based on the expected selling price less costs incurred to sell and was classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The current fair value of assets held for sale totaled $1.9 million as of March 29, 2013 and is recorded in other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company did not record any impairment charges related to assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the quarter ended March 30, 2012.

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents; receivables; accounts payable and accrued expenses; and loans and notes payable approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term maturities of these instruments.

The fair value of our long-term debt is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on dealer quoted prices for our debt instruments based on recent transactions obtained from various sources. As of March 29, 2013, the carrying amount and fair value of our Senior Secured Notes, were $375.0 million and $367.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2012, the carrying amount and fair value of our Senior Secured Notes, were $375.0 million and $348.8 million, respectively.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information

Segment Information

The Company manages its business and serves its customers through reportable segments differentiated by product type, end market, and geography. The Company's four reportable segments are described below:

U.S. Residential Products—The U.S. Residential Products segment utilizes aluminum, steel, copper and vinyl to produce residential roof drainage products, including preformed gutters, downspouts, elbows, soffit, drip edge, fascia, flashing, snow guards and related accessories. These products are used primarily for the repair, replacement or enhancement of residential roof drainage systems. The Company sells these products to home improvement retailers, lumber yards, distributors and contractors from manufacturing and distribution facilities throughout North America. The Company also produces specialty made-to-order vinyl replacement windows and aluminum patio and awning components sold primarily to home improvement contractors in the western U.S.

U.S. Commercial Products—The U.S. Commercial Products segment utilizes various materials, including steel coil, aluminum coil and fiberglass to create various products with commercial applications, including roofing and siding panels, ridge caps, flashing, trim, soffit and other accessories as well as sidewall components, siding and other exterior components for the towable RV, cargo and manufactured housing markets. The Company sells these products to builders, contractors, lumber yards, home improvement retailers, OEMs, and RV manufacturers from manufacturing and distribution facilities located throughout the U.S. These products are used in the construction of a wide variety of small scale commercial, agricultural and industrial building types on either wood or metal frames, manufactured homes, and towable RVs.

European Roll Coated Aluminum—The European Roll Coated Aluminum segment uses a roll coating process to apply paint to bare aluminum coil and, to a lesser extent, bare steel coil in order to produce specialty coated coil, which the Company also processes into specialty coated sheets and panels. The Company sells these products to building panel manufacturers, contractors and UK “holiday home,” RV and transportation OEMs throughout Europe and in parts of Asia. The Company’s customers use its specialty coated metal products to manufacture, among other things, RV sidewalls, commercial roofing panels, interior ceiling panels, and liner panels for shipping containers. The Company produces and distributes these roll coated products from facilities located in the Netherlands and the UK.

European Engineered Products—The European Engineered Products segment utilizes aluminum and vinyl extrusions to produce residential windows, doors and shower enclosures. These products are sold to home improvement retailers, distributors and factory‑built “holiday home” builders in the UK. The Company also produces windows used in the operator compartments of heavy equipment, components sold to suppliers to automotive OEMs in Western Europe and RV doors. The Company produces and distributes these engineered products from facilities in France and the UK and has developed extensive in-house manufacturing capabilities, including powder coating, glass cutting, anodizing and glass toughening.

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based primarily on segment income or (loss) from operations. Expenses, income and assets that are not segment specific relate to the holding company and business development activities conducted for the overall benefit of the Company, and accordingly, are not attributable to the Company’s segments.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Raw Material Commitments

The Company’s primary raw materials are aluminum and steel coil. Because changes in aluminum and steel prices are generally passed through to customers, increases or decreases in aluminum and steel prices generally cause corresponding increases and decreases in reported net sales, causing fluctuations in reported revenues that are unrelated to the level of business activity. However, if the Company is unable to pass through aluminum and steel price increases to customers in the future, its business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Although the Company believes there is sufficient supply in the marketplace to competitively source all of its aluminum and steel needs without reliance on any particular supplier, any major disruption in the supply and/or price of aluminum and steel could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and financial condition.

To ensure a margin on specific customer orders, the Company may commit to purchase aluminum ingot or coil at a fixed market price for future delivery. These contracts are for normal purchases and sales, and therefore are not required to be accounted for as derivatives.

Litigation

The Company is currently party to legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company has and will continue to vigorously defend itself in these matters. It is the opinion of the Company’s management, based upon information available at this time, that the expected outcome of all matters to which the Company is currently a party would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Environmental Matters

The Company’s operations are subject to federal, state, local and European environmental laws and regulations, including those concerning the management of pollution and hazardous substances.

In connection with the acquisition of the Company from Alumax Inc. (which was acquired by Aluminum Company of America in May 1998, and hereafter referred to as Alumax) on September 25, 1996, the Company was indemnified by Alumax for substantially all of its costs, if any, related to specifically identified environmental matters arising prior to the closing date of the acquisition during the period of time it was owned directly or indirectly by Alumax. Such indemnification includes costs that may ultimately be incurred to contribute to the remediation of eleven specified existing National Priorities List (NPL) sites for which the Company had been named a potentially responsible party under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) as of the closing date of the acquisition from Alumax, as well as certain potential costs for nine sites to which the Company may have sent waste for disposal. The Company does not believe that it has any significant probable liability for environmental claims. Further, the Company believes it to be unlikely that the Company would be required to bear environmental costs in excess of its pro rata share of such costs as a potentially responsible party at any site. Any receivable for recoveries under the indemnification would be recorded separately from the corresponding liability when the environmental claim and related recovery is determined to be probable. In addition, the Company establishes reserves for remedial measures required from time to time at its own facilities. Management believes that the reasonably probable outcomes of these matters will not be material. The Company’s reserves, expenditures, and expenses for all environmental exposures were not significant as of any of the dates or for any of the periods presented.

Product Warranties

The Company provides warranties on certain products. The warranty periods differ depending on the product, but generally range from one year to limited lifetime warranties. The Company provides for warranties based on historical experience and expectations of future occurrence. Changes in the product warranty accrual are summarized as follows:
