NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual financial statements. Reference should be made to the Company’s year-end financial statements and notes thereto contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019, as filed with the Commission.

The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial information included in this report contains all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The December 29, 2019, consolidated condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The six month period ended July 5, 2020 includes 27 weeks, and the six month period ended June 30, 2019 includes 26 weeks. The three month periods ended July 5, 2020 and June 30, 2019 both include 13 weeks.

Risks and Uncertainties

The World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic, and many companies have experienced disruptions in their operations. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on the assumptions and estimates used and determined that, except for the goodwill and intangible asset impairment discussed in Note 10 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” the decline in 2020 revenue, and its consequent impacts on production volume, operating income, net income, cash flows, and order rates, there were no other material adverse impacts on the Company’s results of operations and financial position at July 5, 2020. The Company’s primary credit facility has various financial and other covenants including, but not limited to, a covenant to not exceed a maximum net debt to EBITDA ratio, as defined by the credit facility agreement. On July 15, 2020, the Company amended its Syndicated Credit Facility. See Note 16 entitled “Subsequent Events” for additional information. The full extent of the future impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations is uncertain. A prolonged COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have a material adverse impact on our operations, financial condition, and supply chains. It may negatively impact our ability to collect outstanding receivables, manage inventory, and service customers. The impact of COVID-19 could result in additional impairment losses related to goodwill, intangible assets, and property, plant and equipment.

As the virus spreads through communities, it could impact the physical health, mental health, and productivity of our workforce as many of them are required to shelter in place and work from home for prolonged periods of time, and it could also impact our ability to reach our customers and collaborate with them as they are required to shelter in place and work from home for prolonged periods of time. The COVID-19 pandemic is having broad and negative implications on the global economy, which affects the size and timing of our customers’ capital budgets, and could result in delays or terminations of new and existing renovation projects, remodeling projects, new construction projects, and other projects where our products are used.

COVID-19 Impact

We continue to monitor our operations and have implemented various programs to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 on our business including reductions in employee headcount, labor costs, marketing expenses, consulting spend, travel costs, various other costs, and capital expenditures, as well as suspending and reducing shifts in our production facilities, temporarily furloughing employees, and implementing other cost reduction or avoidance initiatives. Government grants and payroll protection programs are available globally to provide assistance to companies impacted by the pandemic. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) enacted in the United States (see Note 13 entitled “Income Taxes” for additional information) and a payroll protection program enacted in the Netherlands (the “NOW Program”), provide benefits related to payroll costs either as reimbursements, lower payroll tax rates or deferral of payroll tax payments. The NOW Program provides eligible companies with reimbursement of labor costs as an incentive to retain employees on the payroll. During the second quarter the Company recognized benefits under several payroll protection programs as reductions to payroll costs.

Reclassifications

In fiscal year 2020, the Company made certain classification and presentation changes related to customer service and other costs. Previously, these costs were presented as a component of cost of sales. Beginning in fiscal year 2020, these costs are presented as a component of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense. The Company determined that this change better reflects how management views and operates the business. Reclassifications of the comparative prior year 2019 amounts have been made to conform to the current presentation as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2019
Statement of Operations Line Item	As Reported		Reclassification			As Reclassified
	(In thousands)
Cost of Sales	$	218,917	$	(2,140	)	$	216,777

Total	$	595,916	$	—		$	595,916

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

On December 30, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326, Credit Losses. This standard requires a financial asset (including trade receivables) to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected through the use of valuation allowances for credit losses. The income statement will reflect the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. The Company adopted the new standard using a modified retrospective approach with no cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings to recognize expected credit losses on trade accounts receivable. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On December 30, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other,” that provides for the elimination of Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the new guidance, impairment charges are recognized to the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value with certain limitations. See Note 10 entitled “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” for additional information.

On December 30, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2018-13, “Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This standard eliminates the current requirement to disclose the amount or reason for transfers between level 1 and level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the requirement to disclose the valuation methodology for level 3 fair value measurements. The standard includes additional disclosure requirements for level 3 fair value measurements, including the requirement to disclose the changes in unrealized gains and losses in other comprehensive income during the period and permits the disclosure of other relevant quantitative information for certain unobservable inputs. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On December 30, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2018-15, “Internal-Use Software - Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement.” This ASU aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement service contract with the guidance to capitalize implementation costs of internal use software. The ASU also requires that the costs for implementation activities during the application development phase be capitalized in a hosting arrangement service contract, and costs during the preliminary and post implementation phase are expensed. The Company adopted this standard, which will be applied on a prospective basis, with no material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

-8-

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” The amendments in this update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740 related to intraperiod tax allocation, the calculation of income taxes in interim periods, and the accounting for outside basis differences of foreign subsidiaries and equity method investments. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of ASC Topic 740, including franchise or similar taxes partially based on income, the accounting for a step-up in tax basis goodwill, and interim recognition of an enacted change in tax laws or rates, by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard but does not anticipate that the adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This standard addresses the risks from the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and provides optional expedients and exceptions to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR if certain criteria are met. This new guidance is effective and may be applied beginning March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard.

NOTE 2 – REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from sales of carpet, modular resilient flooring, rubber flooring, and other flooring-related material was approximately 98% of total revenue for the six months ended July 5, 2020. The remaining 2% of revenue was generated from the installation of carpet and other flooring-related material.

Disaggregation of Revenue

For the six months ended July 5, 2020, revenue from the Company’s customers is broken down by geography as follows:

Geography	Percentage of Net Sales
Americas	56.5%
Europe	30.4%

NOTE 4 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company computes basic earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including participating securities outstanding, during the period as discussed below. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic EPS that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would have shared in the Company’s earnings.

The Company includes all unvested stock awards which contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, in the number of shares outstanding in the basic and diluted EPS calculations when the inclusion of these shares would be dilutive. Unvested share-based awards of restricted stock are paid dividends equally with all other shares of common stock. As a result, the Company includes all outstanding restricted stock awards in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS. Distributed earnings include common stock dividends and dividends earned on unvested share-based payment awards. Undistributed earnings represent earnings that were available for distribution but were not distributed. The following tables show distributed and undistributed earnings:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
Earnings (Loss) Per Share	July 5, 2020		June 30, 2019		July 5, 2020			June 30, 2019
Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share:
Distributed Earnings	$	0.01	$	0.07	$	0.08		$	0.13
Undistributed Earnings (Loss)	0.07		0.43		(1.75		)	0.48
Total	$	0.08	$	0.50	$	(1.67	)	$	0.61
Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share:
Distributed Earnings	$	0.01	$	0.07	$	0.08		$	0.13
Undistributed Earnings (Loss)	0.07		0.43		(1.75		)	0.48
Total	$	0.08	$	0.50	$	(1.67	)	$	0.61
Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share	$	0.08	$	0.50	$	(1.67	)	$	0.61
Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share	$	0.08	$	0.50	$	(1.67	)	$	0.61

The following table presents net income that was attributable to participating securities:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	July 5, 2020		June 30, 2019		July 5, 2020		June 30, 2019
	(In millions)
Net Income Attributable to Participating Securities	$	—	$	0.3	$	—	$	0.3

The weighted average shares for basic and diluted EPS were as follows:

	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	July 5, 2020	June 30, 2019	July 5, 2020	June 30, 2019
	(In thousands)
Weighted Average Shares Outstanding	58,024	58,760	58,006	58,934
Participating Securities	460	525	460	525
Shares for Basic EPS	58,484	59,285	58,466	59,459
Dilutive Effect of Stock Options	—	6	—	6
Shares for Diluted EPS	58,484	59,291	58,466	59,465

For the three and six months ended July 5, 2020, there were 20,000 stock options in each respective period excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the impact would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, there were no stock options or participating securities excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.

NOTE 5 – LONG-TERM DEBT

Syndicated Credit Facility

At July 5, 2020, the Company maintained an amended and restated Syndicated Credit Facility (the “Facility”) which provided to the Company and certain of its subsidiaries a multicurrency revolving loan and U.S. denominated and multicurrency term loans. Interest on base rate loans was charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. Interest on LIBOR-based loans and fees for letters of credit were charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin over the applicable LIBOR rate, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company paid a commitment fee per annum (depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter) on the unused portion of the Facility.

Debt issuance costs associated with term loans are reflected as a reduction of long-term debt in accordance with applicable accounting standards. As these fees are expensed over the life of the outstanding borrowing, the debt balance will increase by the same amount as the fees that are expensed. As of July 5, 2020 and December 29, 2019, the unamortized debt costs recorded as a reduction of long-term debt were $5.4 million and $6.3 million, respectively.

Other deferred borrowing costs, which include underwriting, legal and other direct costs related to the issuance of revolving debt, net of accumulated amortization, were $1.1 million and $1.3 million as of July 5, 2020 and December 29, 2019, respectively. These amounts are included in other assets in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets. The Company amortizes these costs over the life of the related debt.

As of July 5, 2020, the Company had outstanding $566.8 million of term loan borrowing and $58.8 million of revolving loan borrowings under the Facility, and had $1.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Facility. As of December 29, 2019, the Company had outstanding $581.6 million of term loan borrowing and $20.9 million of revolving loan borrowings under the Facility, and had $2.2 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Facility. As of July 5, 2020 and December 29, 2019, the weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Facility was 2.75% and 3.27%, respectively. As of July 5, 2020 and December 29, 2019, the carrying value of the Company’s borrowings under the Facility approximates its fair value as the Facility bears interest rates that are similar to existing market rates.

Under the Facility, the Company is required to make quarterly amortization payments of the term loan borrowings, which are due on the last day of the calendar quarter.

The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the Facility. On July 15, 2020, the Company amended its Syndicated Credit Facility. See Note 16 entitled “Subsequent Events” for additional information.

Subsidiaries of the Company have an aggregate of the equivalent of $9.5 million of other lines of credit available at interest rates ranging from 2.0% to 6.0% as of both July 5, 2020 and December 29, 2019. As of July 5, 2020 and December 29, 2019, there were no borrowings outstanding under these lines of credit.

NOTE 6 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Interest Rate Risk Management

In the third quarter of 2017 and the first quarter of 2019, the Company entered into interest rate swap transactions in notional amounts of $100 million and $150 million, respectively, to fix the variable interest rate on a portion of its term loan borrowing in order to manage a portion of its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The Company’s objective and strategy with respect to these interest rate swaps is to protect the Company against adverse fluctuations in interest rates by reducing its exposure to variability to cash flows relating to interest payments on a portion of its outstanding debt. The Company is meeting its objective by hedging the risk of changes in its cash flows (interest payments) attributable to changes in LIBOR, the designated benchmark interest rate being hedged (the “hedged risk”), on an amount of the Company’s debt principal equal to the outstanding swap notional amounts.

Cash Flow Interest Rate Swaps

Both of the interest rate swaps described above are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges of forecasted interest payments. The Company reports the changes in fair value of the swaps as a component of other comprehensive income (or other comprehensive loss). The aggregate notional amount of the interest rate swaps as of July 5, 2020 was $250 million.

Forward Contracts

Our European operations, from time to time, are party to currency forward contracts designed to hedge the cash flow risk of intercompany sales from the manufacturing facility in Europe to the Americas. The Company’s objective and strategy with respect to these currency forward contracts is to protect the Company against adverse fluctuations in currency rates by reducing its exposure to variability in cash flows related to receipt of payment on intercompany sales. As of July 5, 2020, there were no active forward currency contracts.

Derivative Transactions Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Our Asia-Pacific operations, from time to time, purchase foreign currency options to economically hedge inventory purchases denominated in foreign currencies other than their functional currency. The Company’s objective with respect to these foreign currency options is to protect the Company against adverse fluctuations in currency rates by reducing its exposure to variability in cash flows related to payment on inventory purchases. These options are classified as non-designated derivative instruments. Gains and losses on the changes in fair value of these foreign currency options are recognized in earnings each period. As of July 5, 2020, the Company had outstanding foreign currency options with an aggregate notional amount of $17.0 million.

The table below sets forth the fair value of derivative instruments as of July 5, 2020:

There was no significant impact to net income (loss) from the changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges during the three and six months ended July 5, 2020. We expect that approximately $5.2 million related to cash flow hedges will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss as an increase to interest expense in the next 12 months.

The following table summarizes the impact that changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges had on accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, during the three and six months ended July 5, 2020 and June 30, 2019:

Stock Option Awards

In accordance with accounting standards, the Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost will be recognized over the period in which the employee is required to provide the services – the requisite service period (usually the vesting period) – in exchange for the award.

All outstanding stock options vested prior to the end of 2013, and therefore there was no stock option compensation expense in the first six months of 2020 or 2019.

As of July 5, 2020, there were 20,000 stock options outstanding and exercisable, at an average exercise price of $12.43 per share. There were no stock options granted in the first six months of 2020 or 2019. There were 7,500 stock options exercised and no stock options forfeited in the first six months of 2020. There were 10,000 stock options exercised in the first six months of 2019 and 5,000 stock option forfeitures during those six months. The outstanding and exercisable stock options had no intrinsic value as of July 5, 2020.

Restricted Stock Awards

During the six months ended July 5, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the Company granted restricted stock awards for 308,100 and 224,000 shares of common stock, respectively. Awards of restricted stock (or a portion thereof) vest with respect to each recipient over a one to three-year period from the date of grant, provided the individual remains in the employment or service of the Company as of the vesting date. Additionally, certain awards (or a portion thereof) could vest earlier in the event of a change in control of the Company, or upon involuntary termination without cause.

Compensation expense (benefit) related to restricted stock grants was $(0.2) million and $1.5 million for the six months ended July 5, 2020, and June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company has reduced its expense for restricted stock forfeited during the period.

The following table summarizes restricted stock outstanding as of July 5, 2020, as well as activity during the six months then ended:

	Restricted Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding at December 29, 2019	468,200		$	28.63
Granted	308,100		13.08
Vested	(162,100	)	19.22
Forfeited or canceled	(153,700	)	19.67
Outstanding at July 5, 2020	460,500		$	24.53

As of July 5, 2020, the unrecognized total compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock was $4.7 million. That cost is expected to be recognized by the end of 2023.

Performance Share Awards

During the six months ended July 5, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the Company issued awards of performance shares to certain employees. These awards vest based on the achievement of certain performance-based goals over a performance period of one to three years, subject to the employee’s continued employment, and will be settled in shares of our common stock or in cash at the Company’s election. The number of shares that may be issued in settlement of the performance shares to the award recipients may be greater (up to 200%) or lesser than the nominal award amount depending on actual performance achieved as compared to the performance targets set forth in the awards.

The following table summarizes the performance shares outstanding as of July 5, 2020, as well as the activity during the six months then ended:

	Performance Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding at December 29, 2019	512,000		$	19.71
Granted	263,700		15.36
Vested	(164,300	)	19.74
Forfeited or canceled	(192,000	)	19.67
Outstanding at July 5, 2020	419,400		$	16.99

Compensation expense (benefit) related to the performance shares was $(2.0) million and $3.3 million for the six months ended July 5, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company has reduced its expense for performance shares forfeited during the period. Unrecognized compensation expense related to these performance shares was approximately $7.0 million as of July 5, 2020. Depending on the performance of the Company, any compensation expense related to these outstanding performance shares will be recognized by the end of 2023.

Tax expense recognized with regard to restricted stock and performance shares was approximately $0.5 million for the six months ended July 5, 2020.

NOTE 8 – LEASES

General

We have operating and finance leases for manufacturing equipment, corporate offices, showrooms, distribution facilities, design centers, as well as computer and office equipment. Our leases have terms ranging from 1 to 20 years, some of which may include options to extend the lease term for up to 5 years, and certain leases may include an option to terminate the lease. Our lease accounting may include these options to extend or terminate a lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

We record a right-of-use asset and lease liability for leases extending beyond one year for operating and finance leases once a contract that contains a lease is executed and we have the right to control the use of the leased asset. The right-of-use asset is measured as the present value of the lease obligation. The discount rate used to calculate the present value of the lease liability was the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for the applicable geographical region.

As of July 5, 2020, there were no significant right-of-use assets and lease obligations from leases that had not commenced as of the end of the second quarter.

The table below represents a summary of the balances recorded in the consolidated condensed balance sheets related to our leases as of July 5, 2020 and December 29, 2019:

Policy Elections

We made an accounting policy election not to separate lease and non-lease components for all asset classes, except for data center assets, and will account for the lease payments as a single component. We also made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability recorded on the consolidated condensed balance sheets. These leases primarily represent month-to-month operating leases for vehicles and office equipment where we were reasonably certain that we would not elect an option to extend the lease.

NOTE 9 – EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

On December 31, 2019, a plan amendment was executed to eliminate future service accruals in the Dutch defined benefit plan, resulting in a curtailment of the plan. This plan remains in existence and will continue to pay vested benefits. Active participants will no longer accrue benefits after December 31, 2019, and instead will participate in an industry-wide multi-employer plan beginning in fiscal year 2020. During the three and six months ended July 5, 2020, the Company recorded multi-employer pension expense related to multi-employer contributions of $0.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

NOTE 10 – GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

During the first quarter of 2020, we performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment indicators, considering macroeconomic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential impact to sales and operating income. We expect that the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its adverse impacts on the global economy, global travel restrictions, COVID-19 related government shutdowns, disruptions to our supply chain, distribution disruption, and disruption to our customers’ plans to spend capital on projects that use our products and services will result in lower revenue and operating income. As a result, we determined that there were indicators of impairment, and the Company proceeded with a quantitative assessment of goodwill for all reporting units at the end of the first quarter.

In performing the first quarter quantitative goodwill impairment testing, the Company prepared valuations of reporting units on both a market comparable methodology and an income methodology, and those valuations were compared with the respective carrying values of the reporting units to determine whether any goodwill impairment existed. Our reporting units are one level below our reporting segment level. In preparing the valuations, past, present and future expectations of performance were considered, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This methodology was consistent with the approach used to perform the annual quantitative goodwill assessment in prior years. The weighted average cost of capital used in the goodwill impairment testing ranged between 10.0% and 10.5%, which primarily fluctuated based on a country risk premium assigned to the geographical region of the reporting unit. There is inherent uncertainty associated with key assumptions used in our impairment testing including the duration of the economic downturn associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and the recovery period. As a result of the first quarter assessment, we determined that the fair value for two reporting units was less than the carrying value and recognized a goodwill impairment loss of $116.5 million in the first quarter of 2020. The expected decline in revenue due to the impact of COVID-19 contributed to the lower fair value of our Europe and Asia-Pacific reporting units. As such, the goodwill impairment loss was allocated to our Europe and Asia-Pacific reporting units in the amounts of $99.2 million and $17.3 million, respectively. We determined that the goodwill in our Americas reporting unit was not impaired as the fair value exceeded the carrying value by more than 90% at April 5, 2020. There were no indicators of additional goodwill impairment as of July 5, 2020.

The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill for the six months ended July 5, 2020 are as follows:

BALANCE, AT DECEMBER 30, 2019		ACQUISITIONS		PURCHASE PRICE ACCOUNTING ADJUSTMENTS		IMPAIRMENT			FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION		BALANCE, AT JULY 5, 2020
(In thousands)
$	257,439	$	—	$	—	$	(116,495	)	$	3,121	$	144,065

Additionally, we determined that the trademarks and trade names intangible assets related to the acquired nora business were also impaired and recognized an impairment loss of $4.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. The carrying value of intangible assets after the impairment was $82.7 million at July 5, 2020. There were no indicators of additional intangible asset impairment as of the end of the second quarter of 2020.

NOTE 11 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

Based on applicable accounting standards, the Company has determined that it has three operating segments – namely, the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific geographic regions. Pursuant to accounting standards, the Company has aggregated the three operating segments into one reportable segment because they have similar economic characteristics, and the operating segments are similar in all of the following areas: (a) the nature of the products and services; (b) the nature of the production processes; (c) the type or class of customer for their products and services; (d) the methods used to distribute their products or provide their services; and (e) the nature of the regulatory environment.

While the Company operates as one reportable segment for the reasons discussed, included below is selected information on our operating segments.

NOTE 13 – INCOME TAXES

The Company determines its provision for income taxes for interim periods using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate and records any changes affecting the estimated annual effective tax rate in the interim period in which the change occurs, including discrete tax items.

During the six months ended July 5, 2020, the Company recorded a total income tax provision of $4.1 million on a pre-tax loss of $93.3 million resulting in an effective tax rate of (4.4)%. The effective tax rate for this period was primarily impacted by a non-deductible goodwill impairment. Excluding the impact of the goodwill impairment, the effective tax rate was 17.8% for the period compared to 17.6% during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in the effective tax rate, excluding the goodwill impairment, was due to unfavorable changes related to company-owned life insurance and unrecognized tax benefits, which were offset by the favorable impacts of amending prior year tax returns.

In the first six months of 2020, the Company decreased its liability for unrecognized tax benefits by $0.4 million. As of July 5, 2020, the Company had accrued approximately $25.1 million for unrecognized tax benefits. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company’s deferred tax asset as of July 5, 2020 reflects a reduction for $2.8 million of these unrecognized tax benefits.

Unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted for changing facts and circumstances, including the progress of tax audits and the closing of statutes of limitations. Based on information currently available, it is reasonably possible that approximately $14.7 million of unrecognized tax benefits may be recognized within the next 12 months due to a lapse of statute of limitations.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and provides certain tax relief to businesses. Tax provisions of the CARES Act include, among other things, the deferral of certain payroll taxes, relief for retaining employees, and certain income tax provisions for corporations. During the six months ended July 5, 2020, the Company deferred approximately $1.4 million in payroll taxes under the CARES Act. Other than the deferral of payroll taxes, the CARES Act did not have an impact on the Company’s tax accounts, including its effective tax rate, during the six months ended July 5, 2020. The Company expects it will defer approximately $4.0 million in payroll taxes under the CARES Act during fiscal year 2020 which will result in a corresponding increase in its payroll tax accrual. The CARES Act and other similar foreign government support programs are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s tax accounts during the year.

NOTE 15 – RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

For the six months ended July 5, 2020, the Company recorded a reduction of $1.3 million of previously recognized restructuring charges due to changes in expected cash payments. At July 5, 2020, the total restructuring reserve was $6.8 million for both the 2019 and 2018 restructuring plans. Below is a discussion of the restructuring plan activities by year.

2019 Restructuring Plan

On December 23, 2019, the Company committed to a new restructuring plan that continues to focus on efforts to improve efficiencies and decrease costs across its worldwide operations, and more closely align its operating structure with its business strategy. The plan involved a reduction of approximately 105 employees and early termination of two office leases. As a result of this plan, the Company recorded a pre-tax restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 2019 of approximately $9.0 million. The charge was comprised of severance expenses ($8.8 million) and lease exit costs ($0.2 million).

The restructuring plan is expected to result in cash expenditures of approximately $9.0 million for payment of the employee severance and lease exit costs, as described above. The Company expects to complete the restructuring plan in fiscal year 2020 and expects the plan to yield annualized savings of approximately $6.0 million. A portion of the annualized savings is expected to be realized on the income statement in fiscal year 2020, with the remaining portion of the annualized savings expected to be realized in fiscal year 2021.

A reconciliation of the 2019 plan restructuring reserve is presented below:

	BALANCE, AT DECEMBER 30, 2019		DEDUCTIONS 2020			CHARGED TO EXPENSES 2020			BALANCE, AT JULY 5, 2020
	(In thousands)
Workforce Reduction	$	8,634	$	(1,996	)	$	(353	)	$	6,285
Other Exit Costs	139		—			—			139
Total	$	8,773	$	(1,996	)	$	(353	)	$	6,424

2018 Restructuring Plan

On December 29, 2018, the Company committed to a restructuring plan in its continuing efforts to improve efficiencies and decrease costs across its worldwide operations, and more closely align its operating structure with its business strategy. The plan involved (i) a restructuring of its sales and administrative operations in the United Kingdom, (ii) a reduction of approximately 200 employees, primarily in the Europe and Asia-Pacific geographic regions, and (iii) the write-down of certain underutilized and impaired assets that included information technology assets and obsolete manufacturing equipment.

The restructuring plan was substantially completed at the end of the second quarter of 2020. The Company redeployed essentially all of the anticipated savings toward the funding of sales and strategic growth initiatives, yielding negligible net savings on the Company’s income statement.

A reconciliation of the 2018 plan restructuring reserve is presented below:

	BALANCE, AT DECEMBER 30, 2019		DEDUCTIONS 2020			CHARGED TO EXPENSES 2020			BALANCE, AT JULY 5, 2020

NOTE 16 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Cost Reducing Initiatives and Related Charges

As we continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 and mitigate its effects to our operations, the Company expects to continue to pursue a variety of cost reducing initiatives including but not limited to voluntary incentive separation programs, temporary employee furloughs and other time-and-pay reduction programs, applications to participate in various government sponsored “wage support” programs, involuntary separations where necessary to streamline roles and responsibilities, potential facility closures to streamline operations, and various other cost reducing and cost avoidance activities.

Syndicated Credit Facility

On July 15, 2020, the Company entered into a second amendment to its Syndicated Credit Facility (the “Facility”). This amendment, among other changes, provides for the following: (1) amends the consolidated net leverage ratio covenant making it less restrictive for a period of seven consecutive fiscal quarters beginning with the third quarter of fiscal year 2020 through the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 (the “Relief Period”); (2) amends the pricing grid used to determine interest rate margins on outstanding loans as well as the commitment fee on the unused portion of the Facility to include additional consolidated net leverage ratio levels with increased pricing at higher levels of leverage; (3) amends interest rate provisions to provide for interest rate floors, as applicable, on certain tranches of term loans outstanding; and (4) provides temporary restrictions during the Relief Period on the Company’s ability to make acquisitions, pay dividends, repurchase shares, or enter into new credit facilities without lender consent. The Company incurred approximately $1.5 million in debt issuance costs to execute this amendment.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic, and the virus continues to spread in areas where we operate and sell our products and services. The COVID-19 pandemic has had material adverse effects on our business, results of operations, and financial condition, and it is anticipated that this will continue for an indefinite period of time. The duration of the pandemic will ultimately determine the extent to which our operations are impacted. We continue to monitor our operations and have implemented various programs to mitigate the effects on our business including reductions in employees, labor costs, marketing expenses, consulting expenses, travel costs, various other costs, and capital expenditures, as well as suspending and reducing shifts in our production facilities, temporarily furloughing employees, and implementing other cost reduction or avoidance initiatives.

During the second quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact our global operations, resulting in lower revenue across all geographic regions. For the three months ended July 5, 2020, consolidated net sales declined 27.4% compared to the same period last year. As discussed above, the Company implemented, and continues to implement, various cost cutting initiatives to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 on our operations. During the three months ended July 5, 2020, the Company recorded $2.9 million of voluntary and involuntary severance costs, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. We anticipate future annualized savings of approximately $7 million as a result of these separation initiatives.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, government grants and payroll protection programs are available globally to provide assistance to companies impacted by the pandemic. The CARES Act enacted in the United States (see Note 13 entitled “Income Taxes” of Part I, Item 1 of this 10-Q for additional information) and a payroll protection program enacted in the Netherlands (the “NOW Program”), provide benefits related to payroll costs either as reimbursements, lower payroll tax rates or deferral of payroll tax payments. The NOW Program provides eligible companies with reimbursement of labor costs as an incentive to retain employees on the payroll. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company qualified for benefits under several payroll protection programs and recognized a reduction in payroll costs of approximately $3.8 million during the quarter, which are recorded as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations, as the Company believes it is likely that the benefits received will not be repaid.

The COVID-19 pandemic had less of an impact on our global operations for the first six months of 2020 (as compared with the impact on the second quarter of 2020), as the effects of the pandemic did not begin to impact our business substantially until the end of the first quarter. For the first six months of 2020, consolidated net sales declined 16.4% compared to the same period last year primarily due to COVID-19. Due to reduced demand and to enhance employee safety measures, we temporarily suspended production in our U.S. manufacturing facilities from March 18, 2020 to March 23, 2020, and then again from April 6, 2020 to April 13, 2020. We also substantially reduced production in our Craigavon, UK facility beginning on April 20, 2020 through the end of the second quarter, and our Thailand, China, and Australia plants are operating in reduced shifts in light of reduced demand. During the first quarter of 2020, our Asia-Pacific region was primarily impacted by COVID-19 due to government shutdowns in China and the temporary closure of our China plant in late January 2020 to February 9, 2020. In addition, almost all of our salesforce and administrative employees globally continue to work remotely in accordance with local government orders and “shelter in place” directives.

General

During the quarter ended July 5, 2020, net sales were $259.5 million compared with net sales of $357.5 million in the second quarter last year. During the first six months ended July 5, 2020, net sales were $547.7 million, compared with net sales of $655.2 million in the first six months of last year. The second quarter and first half of 2020 were negatively impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic as discussed above. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates had a negative impact of approximately $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2020 and a negative impact of approximately $7.5 million for the six month period of 2020 compared to the three and six month periods of 2019, mostly driven by the weakening of the Euro, British Pound sterling and the Australian dollar against the U.S. dollar.

Goodwill, Intangible Asset and Fixed Asset Impairment

During the first quarter of 2020, we recognized a charge of $121.3 million for the impairment of goodwill and certain intangible assets. See Note 10 entitled “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” of Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information. No additional goodwill or intangible asset impairment charges were recorded during the second quarter. During the second quarter of 2020, we recognized fixed asset impairment charges of $3.1 million related to certain FLOR design center closures and other projects that were abandoned or indefinitely delayed. These charges are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations.

-32-

For the quarter ended July 5, 2020, net sales decreased $98.0 million (27.4%) versus the comparable period in 2019. The sales decline was primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as discussed above. Currency fluctuations had an approximately $2.8 million (0.8%) negative impact on second quarter 2020 sales compared to the second quarter of 2019. This currency impact was mostly due to the weakening of the Euro, British Pound sterling, Chinese Renminbi, and Australian dollar against the U.S. dollar. On a geographic basis, net sales in the Americas decreased 27.0%, Europe decreased 24.9% and Asia-Pacific decreased 33.3%. The sales decreases across all geographic regions were, as discussed above, due to the impacts of COVID-19, resulting in lower sales globally. The sales decrease in the Americas was most significant in the corporate, retail, leisure and transportation market segments, partially offset by increases in the hospitality and residential/living market segments. On a market segment basis, the sales decrease in Europe was most significant in the corporate, retail, hospitality and residential/living market segments, partially offset by increases in the healthcare and leisure market segments. The sales decrease in Europe was also negatively impacted by the weakening of the Euro. On a market segment basis, the sales decrease in Asia-Pacific was most significant in the corporate, retail, healthcare, public buildings and hospitality market segments partially offset by increases in the residential/living market segment. The sales decrease in Asia-Pacific was also impacted by the weakening of the Australian dollar.

For the six months ended July 5, 2020, net sales decreased $107.5 million (16.4%) versus the comparable period in 2019. The sales decline was primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as discussed above, more pronounced in the second quarter as the effects of the pandemic did not begin to impact our business substantially until the end of the first quarter. Currency fluctuations had an approximately $7.5 million (1.1%) negative impact on net sales for the first six months of 2020 compared to the first six months of 2019. This currency impact was mostly due to the weakening of the Euro, British Pound sterling, Chinese Renminbi, and Australian dollar against the U.S. dollar. On a geographic basis, net sales for the first six months of 2020 in the Americas decreased 15.9%, Europe decreased 11.7% and Asia-Pacific decreased 27.2%. The sales decreases across all geographic regions were, as discussed above, due to the impacts of COVID-19, resulting in lower sales globally. The sales decrease in the Americas was seen in the corporate, retail, and leisure market segments, partially offset by increases in the hospitality and residential/living market segments. On a market segment basis, the sales decrease in Europe was most significant in the corporate, retail, public buildings, residential/living and hospitality market segments, partially offset by increases in the leisure and transportation market segments. The sales decrease in Europe was also impacted by the weakening of the Euro. The sales decrease in the Asia-Pacific region was impacted by COVID-19 shutdowns and the weakening of the Chinese Renminbi and Australian dollar. On a market segment basis, the sales decrease in Asia-Pacific was most significant in the corporate, retail, healthcare, public buildings and transportation market segments partially offset by increases in the residential/living market segment.

Cost and Expenses

The following tables present our overall cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods ended July 5, 2020, and June 30, 2019:

	Three Months Ended				Percentage Change
	July 5, 2020		June 30, 2019
	(In thousands)
Cost of sales	$	162,210	$	216,777	(25.2	)%
Selling, general and administrative expenses	80,058		97,838		(18.2	)%

	Six Months Ended				Percentage Change
	July 5, 2020		June 30, 2019
	(In thousands)
Cost of sales	$	336,068	$	397,943	(15.5	)%
Selling, general and administrative expenses	167,741		197,973		(15.3	)%

For the quarter ended July 5, 2020, cost of sales decreased $54.6 million (25.2%) compared to the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to lower net sales. Cost of sales also includes the amortization of acquired intangible assets of $1.3 million for each of the second quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively. Currency translation had an approximately $2.0 million (0.9%) positive impact on the year-over-year comparison. As a percentage of net sales, our cost of sales increased to 62.5% for the second quarter of 2020 versus 60.6% for the second quarter of 2019.

-33-

For the six months ended July 5, 2020, cost of sales decreased $61.9 million (15.5%) compared to the first six months of 2019, primarily due to lower net sales. Cost of sales also includes the amortization of acquired intangible assets of $2.6 million and $3.2 million for the first six months of 2020 and 2019, respectively. Currency translation had an approximately $5.3 million (1.3%) positive impact on the year-over-year comparison. As a percentage of net sales, our cost of sales increased to 61.4% for the first six months of 2020 versus 60.7% for the first six months of 2019.

For the quarter ended July 5, 2020, selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased $17.8 million (18.2%) versus the comparable period in 2019. Currency translation had a $0.5 million (0.5%) positive impact on the year-over-year comparison. SG&A expenses were lower for the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to (1) lower selling expenses of $16.1 million due to lower net sales, (2) $3.8 million of payroll protection credits, and (3) lower overall payroll costs due to lower performance-based incentive compensation as well as the impact of voluntary and involuntary employee separations and furloughs, which were partially offset by $2.9 million of severance expenses recorded during the quarter. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased to 30.9% for the second quarter of 2020 versus 27.4% for the second quarter of 2019. 

For the six months ended July 5, 2020, SG&A expenses decreased $30.2 million (15.3%) versus the comparable period in 2019. Currency translation had a $1.4 million (0.7%) positive impact on the year-over-year comparison. SG&A expenses were lower for the first six months of 2020 primarily due to (1) lower selling expenses of $23.7 million due to lower net sales, (2) lower stock compensation expense of $7.0 million, (3) $3.8 million of payroll protection credits, and (4) lower overall payroll costs as discussed above. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased to 30.6% for the first six months of 2020 versus 30.2% for the first six months of 2019. 

Other Expense

Other expenses increased $4.8 million and $5.3 million during the three and six months ended July 5, 2020, respectively, compared to 2019 primarily due to a $4.2 million write-down of damaged raw material inventory as a result of a fire at a storage facility.

Interest Expense

For the quarter ended July 5, 2020, interest expense decreased $1.8 million, from $6.8 million in the comparable period last year to $5.0 million, primarily due to lower interest rates. For the six months ended July 5, 2020, interest expense decreased $3.0 million, from $13.6 million in the comparable period last year to $10.6 million, primarily due to lower interest rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

At July 5, 2020, we had $91.8 million in cash. At that date, we had $566.8 million in term loan borrowing, $58.8 million of revolving loan borrowings, and $1.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under our Syndicated Credit Facility. As of July 5, 2020, we had additional borrowing capacity of $239.6 million under the Syndicated Credit Facility and $9.5 million of borrowing capacity under other credit facilities in place at other non-U.S. subsidiaries. We anticipate that our liquidity is sufficient to meet our obligations for the next 12 months.

Amendment of Credit Facility Due to COVID-19 Impact

On July 15, 2020, we entered into a second amendment to our Syndicated Credit Facility. See Note 16 entitled “Subsequent Events” within Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

The increase was primarily due to working capital changes, specifically an increase in account receivable collections offset by the change to accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Cash used in investing activities was $35.7 million for the six months ended July 5, 2020 which represents an increase of $0.8 million from the prior year comparable period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures from the prior year comparable period.

Cash provided by financing activities was $15.6 million for the six months ended July 5, 2020 which represents a decrease of $1.6 million from the prior year comparable period. The decrease was primarily due to higher repayments of revolving loan borrowings.

Purchase Obligations

We have outstanding purchase obligations of $9.7 million related to expanding our manufacturing capabilities, which we expect to fund during the remainder of 2020.

Forward-Looking Statement on Impact of COVID-19

While we are aggressively managing our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, its impacts on our full year fiscal 2020 results and beyond are uncertain. We believe the most significant elements of uncertainty are (1) the intensity and duration of the impact on construction, renovation, and remodeling; (2) corporate, government, and consumer spending levels and sentiment; and (3) the ability of our sales channels, supply chain, manufacturing, and distribution partners to continue operating through disruptions. Any or all of these factors could negatively impact our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and outlook. As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect companies with global operations, we anticipate that our business and results in the third quarter of 2020 will continue to be adversely affected, and the timeline and pace of recovery is uncertain. While we are unable to predict with certainty, we anticipate continued year-over-year declines in revenue and operating income in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2020, and perhaps during quarterly periods thereafter.

The Company has implemented several cost reduction and avoidance initiatives to align with anticipated customer demand, including a voluntary employee separation program, temporary employee furloughs and other time-and-pay reduction programs, involuntary employee separations where necessary to streamline roles and responsibilities, and various other cost reducing initiatives. The Company has also suspended merit-based salary increases, as well as its 401(k) and Non-Qualified Savings Plan (NSP) matching contributions, and will benefit from lower than originally anticipated performance-based compensation and variable compensation for 2020. In addition, the Company has reduced its capital spending plans.

Cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and other sources of liquidity are expected to be available and sufficient to meet foreseeable cash requirements. However, the Company’s cash flows from operations can be affected by numerous factors including the uncertainty of COVID-19 and its impact on global operations, raw material availability and cost, demand for our products, and other factors described in “Risk Factors” included in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Backlog

As of July 26, 2020, the consolidated backlog of orders was approximately $193.1 million. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019, backlog was approximately $177.8 million as of February 9, 2020. Disruptions in supply and distribution chains, global travel restrictions and government shelter in place orders due to the impact of COVID-19 have resulted in delays of construction projects and flooring installations in many regions worldwide.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The discussion below in this Item 3 is based upon the more detailed discussions of our market risk and related matters included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019, under Part II, Item 7A of that Form 10-K. The discussion here focuses on the six months ended July 5, 2020, and any material changes from (or other important intervening developments since the time of) the information discussed in that Form 10-K. This discussion should be read in conjunction with that Form 10-K for more detailed and background information.

Sensitivity Analysis

For purposes of specific risk analysis, we use sensitivity analysis to measure the impact that market risk may have on the fair values of our market sensitive instruments. To perform sensitivity analysis, we assess the risk of loss in fair values associated with the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates on market sensitive instruments.

Because the debt outstanding under our Syndicated Credit Facility has variable interest rates based on an underlying prime lending rate or LIBOR rate, we do not believe changes in interest rates would have any significant impact on the fair value of that debt instrument. Changes in the underlying prime lending rate or LIBOR rate would, however, impact the amount of our interest expense. For a discussion of these hypothetical impacts on our interest expense, please see the discussion in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2019.

As of July 5, 2020, a 10% decrease or increase in the levels of foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, with all other variables held constant, would result in a decrease in the fair value of our financial instruments of $11.8 million or an increase in the fair value of our financial instruments of $14.4 million, respectively. As the impact of offsetting changes in the fair market value of our net foreign investments is not included in the sensitivity model, these results are not indicative of our actual exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.

As of July 5, 2020, a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would result in an increase in the recorded liability of our interest rate swaps of approximately $5.2 million while a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would result in a decrease in the recorded liability of our interest rate swaps of approximately $6.3 million.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”), pursuant to Rule 13a-14(c) under the Act.

No system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the system of controls has operated effectively in all cases. Our disclosure controls and procedures however are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.

Based on the evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
