1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

Trex Company, Inc. (Company) is the world’s largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking and railing products, with more than 25 years of product experience which are marketed under the brand name Trex^®. The Company manufactures and distributes high-performance, low-maintenance wood/plastic composite outdoor living products and related accessories. A majority of its products are manufactured in a proprietary process that combines reclaimed wood fibers and scrap polyethylene. On July 31, 2017, through its newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary, Trex Commercial Products, Inc., the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Staging Concepts Acquisition, LLC (SC Company) and thus expanded its markets to also become a market leader for the design, engineering and marketing of modular and architectural railing systems and solutions for the commercial and multifamily markets, and a leading provider of staging, acoustical and seating systems for commercial markets, including sports stadiums and performing arts venues. Additional information on the acquisition of SC Company is presented in Note 6. The Company is incorporated in Delaware. The principal executive offices are located at 160 Exeter Drive, Winchester, Virginia 22603, and the telephone number at that address is (540) 542-6300. Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company operates in two reportable segments, Trex Residential Products and Trex Commercial Products.
