INTERFACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “Interface,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” “ours” and “us” refer to Interface, Inc. and its subsidiaries or any of them, unless the context requires otherwise.

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 31, 2023, 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. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The December 31, 2023, 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 (“GAAP”).

The six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 both include 26 weeks. The three-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 both include 13 weeks.

Risks and Uncertainties

Global economic challenges, including the impacts of the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas wars, inflation, supply chain disruptions, and the slow macro environment in China could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. In connection with the Cyber Event discussed below, security breaches may expose us to fines and other liabilities to the extent sensitive data stored in our IT systems, including data related to customers, suppliers or employees, are misappropriated. The Company considered these impacts and subsequent general uncertainties and volatility in the global economy on the assumptions and estimates used herein. These uncertainties could result in a future material adverse effect to the amounts reported within the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements if actual results differ from these estimates.

Cybersecurity Event

On November 20, 2022, we discovered a cybersecurity attack, perpetrated by unauthorized third parties, affecting our IT systems (the “Cyber Event”). In response to this Cyber Event, we notified law enforcement and took steps to supplement existing security monitoring, including scanning and protective measures. The investigation of the Cyber Event by our forensic experts was completed during fiscal year 2023.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” This ASU requires public entities on an annual basis to disclose a rate reconciliation with explicit categories, as outlined in the ASU, and requires additional disclosures for reconciling items that meet certain quantitative thresholds. Other disclosures include disaggregation of income taxes paid, pre-tax income, and income tax expense. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU to its income tax disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” This ASU requires additional disclosures in annual and interim periods for significant segment expenses included in the measure of segment profit provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). Disclosure of other segment items by reportable segment as well as a description of its composition is also required. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU to its segment disclosures.

NOTE 2 – REVENUE RECOGNITION

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, revenue from sales of modular carpet, resilient flooring, rubber flooring, and other flooring-related material was approximately 98% of total revenue. The remaining 2% of revenue was generated from the installation of carpet and other flooring-related material for both three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023.

Disaggregation of Revenue

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, revenue from the Company’s customers is broken down by geography as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
Geography	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023		June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
Americas	62.0	%	61.1	%	60.5	%	59.2	%
Europe	27.6		28.0		29.4		29.9
Asia-Pacific	10.4		10.9		10.1		10.9

Revenue from the Company’s customers in the Americas corresponds to the AMS reportable segment, and the EAAA reportable segment includes revenue from the Europe and Asia-Pacific geographies. See Note 10 entitled “Segment Information” for additional information.

NOTE 4 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company computes basic earnings per share (“EPS”) by dividing net income 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 that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, in the number of shares outstanding for basic EPS as these awards are considered participating securities. Any unvested stock awards considered non-participating securities are included in 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 table shows the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023		June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
	(in thousands, except per share data)
Numerator:
Net income	$	22,558	$	15,797	$	36,737	$	15,083
Less: distributed and undistributed earnings available to participating securities	(109)		(189)		(282)		(207)
Distributed and undistributed earnings available to common shareholders	$	22,449	$	15,608	$	36,455	$	14,876
Denominator:
Weighted average shares outstanding	58,001		57,381		57,812		57,279
Participating securities	280		693		448		798
Shares for basic EPS	58,281		58,074		58,260		58,077
Dilutive effect of non-participating securities	411		96		443		103
Shares for diluted EPS	58,692		58,170		58,703		58,180
Basic EPS	$	0.39	$	0.27	$	0.63	$	0.26
Diluted EPS	$	0.38	$	0.27	$	0.63	$	0.26

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no securities excluded from the computation of diluted EPS that would have been antidilutive. For the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, 1,476,804 and 1,322,278 respectively, of non-participating securities were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the effect would have been antidilutive.

Less: Current portion of long-term debt	(8,526)				(8,572)
Total long-term debt, net	$	379,027			$	408,641

(1) Represents the weighted average rate of interest for borrowings under the Syndicated Credit Facility and the stated rate of interest for the 5.50% Senior Notes due 2028, without the effect of debt issuance costs.

Syndicated Credit Facility

The Company’s Syndicated Credit Facility (the “Facility”) provides to the Company U.S. denominated and multicurrency term loans and provides to the Company and certain of its subsidiaries a multicurrency revolving credit facility. Interest on base rate loans is 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 SOFR-based and alternative currency loans is charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin over the applicable SOFR rate or alternative currency rate, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company pays 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.

Fees for commercial letters of credit are computed as a percentage of the amount available to be drawn under such letters of credit. Fees for standby letters of credit are charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin of the amount available to be drawn under such standby letters of credit, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. As of both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $1.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Facility.

As of both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying value of the Company’s borrowings under the Facility approximated its fair value as the Facility bears interest rates that are similar to existing market rates. The fair value of borrowings under the Facility is estimated using observable market rates and is considered Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

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 in compliance with all covenants under the Facility and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future.

11

Senior Notes due 2028

The 5.50% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Senior Notes”) bear an interest rate at 5.50% per annum and mature on December 1, 2028. Interest is paid semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, all of which also guarantee the obligations of the Company under its Facility.

As of June 30, 2024, the estimated fair value of the Senior Notes was $283.2 million, compared with a net carrying value recorded in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheet of $296.9 million ($300.0 million gross, excluding the impact of $3.1 million of unamortized debt issuance costs). The fair value of the Senior Notes is derived using quoted prices for similar instruments and is considered Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company is in compliance with all covenants under the indenture governing the Senior Notes and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt issuance costs associated with the Company’s Senior Notes and term loans under the Facility 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 June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the unamortized debt issuance costs recorded as a reduction of long-term debt were $3.7 million and $4.4 million, respectively.

Debt issuance costs related to the issuance of revolving debt, which include underwriting, legal and other direct costs, net of accumulated amortization, were $1.2 million and $1.4 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 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.

Stock Incentive Plan

The Company has share-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

In May 2024, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of an amendment and restatement of the Interface, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “Amended and Restated Plan”). The aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued or transferred under the Amended and Restated Plan on or after the effective date of the plan is the sum of 3,200,000 shares not previously authorized for issuance under any plan, plus the number of shares remaining available for issuance under the original Interface, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “Original Plan”) but not subject to outstanding awards under the Original Plan immediately prior to the effective date of the Amended and Restated Plan, plus the number of shares remaining available for issuance pursuant to the outstanding awards under the Original Plan immediately prior to the effective date of the Amended and Restated Plan, including any shares that become available due to the forfeiture, termination or cancellation of such awards. No award may be granted after the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the Amended and Restated Plan.

Restricted Stock Awards

Compensation expense related to restricted stock grants was $1.4 million and $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively. The Company has reduced its expense for any restricted stock forfeited during the period.

The following table summarizes restricted stock outstanding as of June 30, 2024, as well as activity during the six months then ended:

Forfeited or canceled	(1,200)	13.19
Outstanding at June 30, 2024	244,000	$	13.91

As of June 30, 2024, the unrecognized total compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock was $1.3 million. That cost is expected to be recognized by the second quarter of 2025.

Restricted Share Unit Awards

Compensation expense related to the restricted share units was $1.8 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively. The Company has reduced its expense for any restricted share units forfeited during the period.

The following table summarizes restricted share units outstanding as of June 30, 2024, as well as activity during the six months then ended:

Forfeited or canceled	(16,800)	12.65
Outstanding at June 30, 2024	1,178,700	$	12.23

Compensation expense related to the performance shares was $3.3 million and $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively. The Company has reduced its expense for any performance shares forfeited during the period. Unrecognized compensation expense related to these performance shares was approximately $7.7 million as of June 30, 2024.

NOTE 10 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company determines that an operating segment exists if a component (i) engages in business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs expenses, (ii) has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and (iii) has discrete financial information. Additionally, accounting standards require the utilization of a “management approach” to report the financial results of operating segments, which is based on information used by the CODM to assess performance and make operating and resource allocation decisions. The Company determined that it has two operating segments organized by geographical area – namely (a) Americas (“AMS”) and (b) Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia (collectively “EAAA”). The AMS operating segment includes the United States, Canada and Latin America geographic areas.

Pursuant to the management approach discussed above, the Company’s CODM, our chief executive officer, evaluates performance at the AMS and EAAA operating segment levels and makes operating and resource allocation decisions based on segment adjusted operating income (“AOI”), which includes allocations of corporate selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses and allocations of global support SG&A as discussed below. AOI excludes: nora purchase accounting amortization; Cyber Event impact; property casualty loss; and restructuring, asset impairment, severance, and other, net. Intersegment revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, were $24.5 million and $41.3 million, respectively, and intersegment revenues for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, were $24.7 million and $47.3 million, respectively. Intersegment revenues are eliminated from net sales presented below since these amounts are not included in the information provided to the CODM.

The Company has determined that it has two reportable segments – AMS and EAAA, as each operating segment meets the quantitative thresholds defined in the accounting guidance.

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company implemented a cost center realignment initiative to centralize certain global/shared functions. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, SG&A expenses for these global support functions were allocated to AOI for each reportable segment consistent with the allocation methodology used to allocate corporate overhead in prior periods. Prior year AOI amounts below were not recast as there was no material impact to the measure of segment profit for each reportable segment. There were no changes to the composition of the Company’s operating or reportable segments.

Segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 is presented in the following table:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

NOTE 12 – INCOME TAXES

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

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a total income tax provision of $13.4 million on pre-tax income of $50.1 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 26.7%, as compared to a total income tax provision of $5.5 million on pre-tax income of $20.6 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 26.7% during the six months ended July 2, 2023. Although the year-over-year change in rate was flat, the effective tax rate for the period ended June 30, 2024 was favorably impacted by an increase in tax benefits related to share-based compensation and favorable changes related to the limitation on the deduction of business interest expense under Internal Revenue Code section 163(j), which were offset by a decrease in favorable tax benefits related to the repatriation of previously taxed foreign earnings realized during the six months ended July 2, 2023.

On December 20, 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) published Pillar Two Model Rules defining the global minimum tax, which calls for the taxation of large corporations at a minimum rate of 15%. The OECD has since issued administrative guidance providing transition and safe harbor rules around the implementation of the Pillar Two global minimum tax. Many non-U.S. tax jurisdictions have either recently enacted legislation to adopt certain components of the Pillar Two Model Rules beginning in 2024 (including the European Union Member States) with the adoption of additional components in later years or announced their plans to enact legislation in future years. For fiscal year 2024, we expect to meet the Transitional Country-by-Country (CbCR) Safe Harbor rules for most if not all jurisdictions and do not expect these provisions to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. We will continue to closely monitor ongoing developments and evaluate any potential impact on future periods.

In the first six months of 2024, the Company increased its liability for unrecognized tax benefits by $0.4 million. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had accrued approximately $5.3 million for unrecognized tax benefits. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company’s deferred tax asset as of June 30, 2024, reflects a reduction of $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. While it is reasonably possible that some of the unrecognized tax benefits will be recognized within the next 12 months, the Company does not expect the recognition of such amounts will have a material impact on the Company’s financial results.

NOTE 14 – ASSETS DISPOSED

During the second quarter of 2023, pursuant to a previously announced plan of reorganization, the Company completed the sale of its Thailand manufacturing facility for a selling price of $6.6 million and recognized a gain of $2.7 million. The gain is recorded in restructuring, asset impairment, and other gains, net, in the consolidated condensed statements of operations and is attributable to the EAAA reportable segment.

The Company determined that the Thailand facility sale did not meet the criteria for classification as discontinued operations.

Executive Overview

During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, we had consolidated net sales of $346.6 million, up 5.2% compared to $329.6 million in the second quarter last year, primarily due to higher customer demand — particularly in the education and corporate office market segments. Consolidated operating income was $38.2 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $28.9 million in the second quarter last year, primarily due to higher sales and higher gross profit margin as a result of increased volume, higher selling prices, and lower raw material costs. Consolidated net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, was $22.6 million or $0.38 per diluted share, compared to $15.8 million or $0.27 per diluted share in the second quarter last year.

During the first six months of 2024, we had consolidated net sales of $636.4 million, up 1.8% compared to $625.4 million in the first six months of last year, primarily due to higher customer demand — particularly in the education market segment partially offset by decreases in the retail and healthcare market segments. Consolidated operating income was $62.6 million for the first six months of 2024, compared to $38.4 million in the same period last year, primarily due to higher sales and higher gross profit margin as discussed above. During the first six months of 2023, inflationary pressures on raw materials and lower manufacturing fixed cost absorption adversely impacted our gross profit margin. Consolidated net income for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was $36.7 million or $0.63 per diluted share, compared to $15.1 million or $0.26 per diluted share in the same period last year.

Cybersecurity Event

As previously disclosed in our current report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on November 23, 2022, we discovered a cybersecurity attack on November 20, 2022, perpetrated by unauthorized third parties, affecting our IT systems. The investigation of the Cyber Event was completed in fiscal year 2023. We have cyber risk insurance and anticipate that a portion of our costs and expenses related to the Cyber Event will ultimately be recovered by insurance.

Our IT systems face a myriad of cybersecurity threats, including, without limitation, hacking, computer viruses, denial of service attacks, malware, ransomware, phishing scams, compromised or irretrievable backups, and other cyber attacks. Any of these events which deny us use of vital IT systems may seriously disrupt our normal business operations and lead to production or shipping stoppages, revenue loss, and reputational harm. We also expect to incur ongoing costs for enhanced data security against unauthorized access to, or manipulation of, our systems and data.

Impact of Macroeconomic Trends

Recent disruptions in economic markets due to inflation, high interest rates, the Russia-Ukraine war and the Israel-Hamas war, a fairly stabilized but still challenging supply chain environment, slow market conditions in certain parts of the globe, and significant financial pressures in the commercial office market globally, all pose challenges which may adversely affect our future performance. To mitigate these impacts, we plan to continue evaluating our cost structure and global manufacturing footprint to identify and activate opportunities to decrease costs and optimize our global cost structure.

Consolidated Net Sales

Below is information regarding our consolidated net sales, and analysis of those results, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024, and July 2, 2023:

	Three Months Ended				Percentage Change		Six Months Ended				Percentage Change
	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023				June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
	(in thousands)						(in thousands)
Consolidated net sales	$	346,635	$	329,582	5.2	%	$	636,378	$	625,374	1.8	%

Currency fluctuations had a negative impact on consolidated net sales of approximately $2.0 million (0.6%) for the second quarter of 2024, due primarily to the weakening of the Euro, Chinese Renminbi, and Australian dollar against the U.S. dollar. On a market segment basis, the sales increase was primarily in the education, corporate office, public buildings, and residential living market segments partially offset by decreases in the healthcare, retail, and hospitality market segments.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, consolidated net sales increased $11.0 million (1.8%) versus the comparable period in 2023, primarily due to higher sales pricing (approximately 2%). Currency fluctuations had a negative impact on consolidated net sales of approximately $2.1 million (0.3%) for the first six months of 2024, due to the weakening of the Chinese Renminbi and Australian dollar against the U.S. dollar. On a market segment basis, the sales increase was primarily in the education, residential living, and public buildings market segments partially offset by decreases in the retail, healthcare, hospitality, and consumer residential market segments.

Consolidated Cost of Sales

For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, consolidated cost of sales increased $6.2 million (2.9%) compared to the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher sales partially offset by lower raw material costs. Currency translation had a positive impact on consolidated cost of sales in the second quarter of 2024 and partially reduced our costs by approximately $1.4 million (0.6%) compared to the same period last year. As a percentage of net sales, our cost of sales decreased to 64.6% for the second quarter of 2024 versus 66.1% for the second quarter of 2023.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, consolidated cost of sales decreased $14.4 million (3.4%) versus the comparable period in 2023, primarily due to lower raw material costs. Currency translation had a positive impact on consolidated cost of sales for the first six months of 2024 and partially reduced our costs by approximately $1.5 million (0.4%) compared to the same period last year. As a percentage of net sales, our cost of sales decreased to 63.4% for the first six months of 2024 versus 66.8% for the first six months of 2023.

Consolidated Gross Profit

For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, was 35.4% compared with 33.9% in the same period last year. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily due to (i) lower raw material costs (approximately 1%), (ii) higher sales pricing (approximately 1%), partially offset by (iii) unfavorable fixed cost absorption (approximately 1%).

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, was 36.6% compared with 33.2% in the same period last year. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily due to (i) lower raw material costs (approximately 2%) and (ii) higher sales pricing (approximately 1%).

Consolidated Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses

For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, consolidated SG&A expenses decreased $1.1 million (1.2%) versus the comparable period in 2023. Currency fluctuations had no material impact on consolidated SG&A expenses in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same period last year. SG&A expenses were lower for the second quarter of 2024 primarily due to (i) lower professional fees of $2.2 million primarily due to lower legal fees and non-recurring consulting expenses compared to the prior year period and (ii) lower severance costs of $0.5 million driven by employee headcount reduction initiatives in the prior year. These decreases were partially offset by $1.7 million of higher labor and variable compensation costs. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 24.4% for the second quarter of 2024 versus 25.9% for the second quarter of 2023. 

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, consolidated SG&A expenses decreased $1.4 million (0.8%) versus the comparable period in 2023. Currency translation had no material impact on consolidated SG&A expenses in the first six months of 2024 compared to the same period last year. SG&A expenses were lower for the first six months of 2024 primarily due to (i) lower severance costs of $2.5 million driven by employee headcount reduction and cost saving initiatives in the prior year period, (ii) lower professional fees of $2.3 million as discussed above, (iii) lower Cyber Event costs of $1.3 million due to completion of the investigation in the prior year, and (iv) lower marketing expenses of $1.1 million due to global restructuring initiatives. These decreases were partially offset by (i) higher labor and variable compensation costs of $3.9 million and (ii) higher software license fees of $1.8 million. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 26.8% for the first six months of 2024 versus 27.5% for the first six months of 2023.

Assets Disposed

During the second quarter of 2023, the Company completed the sale of its Thailand manufacturing facility and recognized a gain of $2.7 million.

See Note 14 entitled “Assets Disposed” of Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Interest Expense

During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, interest expense was $6.2 million, a decrease of $2.1 million from the comparable period in 2023, primarily due to lower outstanding term loan borrowings under the Facility. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, interest expense was $12.6 million, a decrease of $4.2 million from the comparable period in 2023, primarily due to lower outstanding term loan borrowings as discussed above.

Segment Operating Results

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company implemented a cost center realignment initiative to centralize certain global/shared functions. For the first six months of 2024, SG&A expenses for these global support functions were allocated to adjusted operating income (“AOI”) for each reportable segment consistent with the allocation methodology used to allocate corporate overhead in prior periods. Prior year AOI amounts below were not recast as there was no material impact to the measure of segment profit for each reportable segment. There were no changes to the composition of the Company’s operating or reportable segments.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

At June 30, 2024, the Company had $94.2 million in cash. At that date, the Company had $83.9 million in term loan borrowings, $7.3 million in revolving loan borrowings, and $1.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under our Facility, and we had $300.0 million of Senior Notes outstanding. As of June 30, 2024, we had additional borrowing capacity of $291.0 million under the Facility. We anticipate that our liquidity is sufficient to meet our obligations for the next 12 months, and we expect to generate sufficient cash to meet our long-term obligations.

The Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, all of which also guarantee the obligations of the Company under its Facility. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries and certain non-material domestic subsidiaries are considered non-guarantors. Net sales for the non-guarantor subsidiaries were approximately $145 million and $278 million for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and net sales for the non-guarantor subsidiaries were approximately $142 million and $283 million for the three-month and six-month periods ended July 2, 2023, respectively. Total indebtedness of the non-guarantor subsidiaries was approximately $128 million and $133 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Balance Sheet

Accounts receivable, net, were $179.6 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $163.4 million at December 31, 2023. The increase of $16.2 million was primarily due to the impact of higher net sales as a result of increased customer demand in the second quarter of 2024.

Inventories, net, were $281.1 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $279.1 million at December 31, 2023. The increase of $2.0 million was primarily due to finished goods inventory build attributable to higher expected customer demand in the remainder of 2024, partially offset by lower raw material costs.

Analysis of Cash Flows

The following table presents a summary of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively:

	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
	(in thousands)
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	34,158	$	47,924
Investing activities	(11,567)		(4,738)
Financing activities	(36,960)		(49,063)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash	(1,942)		1,248
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	(16,311)		(4,629)
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period	110,498		97,564
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period	$	94,187	$	92,935

Cash provided by operating activities was $34.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, which represents a decrease of $13.8 million from the prior year comparable period. Higher sales during the first six months of 2024 contributed to higher accounts receivable balances resulting in a use of cash for the current period. The prior year comparable period includes a source of cash from accounts receivable collections compared with the first six months of 2024, primarily attributable to delays in customer billings from the Cyber Event, in which those delayed billings were collected in the first quarter of 2023. Additionally, the increase in inventories during the first six months of 2024, as described above, resulted in a greater use of cash compared with the same period in the prior year.

34

Cash used in investing activities was $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, which represents an increase of $6.8 million from the prior year comparable period. The increase was attributable to higher capital expenditures partially offset by cash proceeds received during the first six months of 2024 from the sale of manufacturing equipment and insurance proceeds for property casualty losses. The first six months of 2023 include cash proceeds of approximately $6.6 million from the sale of the Company’s Thailand manufacturing facility.

Cash used in financing activities was $37.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, which represents a decrease of $12.1 million from the prior year comparable period. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower debt repayments on borrowings under the Facility during the first six months of 2024 compared to the prior year period.

Outlook

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 raw material availability and cost, and demand for our products.

Backlog

As of July 21, 2024, the consolidated backlog of unshipped orders was approximately $244.2 million. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, backlog was approximately $195.5 million as of February 4, 2024. Disruptions in supply and distribution chains have resulted in delays of construction projects and flooring installations in many regions worldwide, which have also caused, and may continue to cause, fluctuations in our backlog.

35

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 31, 2023, under Part II, Item 7A of that Form 10-K. The discussion here focuses on the six months ended June 30, 2024, 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 Facility has variable interest rates based on an underlying prime lending rate, SOFR, or other benchmark 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, SOFR, or other benchmark 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 31, 2023.

As of June 30, 2024, based on a hypothetical immediate 100 basis point increase in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, the fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt would be impacted by a net decrease of $10.6 million. Conversely, a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would result in a net increase in the fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt of $11.1 million.

As of June 30, 2024, 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 $10.4 million or an increase in the fair value of our financial instruments of $12.7 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.

36

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.
