1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all of the adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods reported. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Our financial condition as of, and our operating results for the three month period ended, March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the financial condition and results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2012 or any other interim period.

        On February 9, 2011, we acquired Exterior Portfolio by Crane ("Exterior Portfolio"), a leading U.S. manufacturer and marketer of siding products, for a net purchase price of $71.6 million. The allocation of the net purchase price and results of Exterior Portfolio's operations are reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements since that date. The purchase price allocation was finalized in the three months ended March 31, 2012.

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the "2011 Annual Report"). There has been no material changes in the significant accounting policies followed by us during the three month period ended March 31, 2012 from those disclosed in the 2011 Annual Report.
