NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
Builders FirstSource, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed in 1998, is a leading supplier and
manufacturer of structural and related building products for residential new construction in the
United States. In this quarterly report, references to the company, we, our, ours or us
refer to Builders FirstSource, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated or
the context otherwise requires.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements include all recurring adjustments and normal accruals necessary for a fair statement of
the companys financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and periods
presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
during the remainder of the current year or for any future period. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 is derived from the audited
consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This condensed consolidated balance
sheet as of December 31, 2007 and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
included herein should be read in conjunction with the more detailed audited consolidated financial
statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 included in our most recent annual report on
Form 10-K. Accounting policies used in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Form 10-K.
2. Net (Loss) Income per Common Share
Net (loss) income per common share (EPS) is calculated in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings per Share, which requires the
presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed using the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of potential common
shares.
The table below presents a reconciliation of weighted average common shares used in the
calculation of basic and diluted EPS (in thousands):

For the purpose of computing diluted EPS, weighted average shares outstanding have been
adjusted for common shares underlying options of 2.3 million for the three months ended March 31,
2007. Weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2007 have also been
adjusted for 242,000 shares of restricted stock. Options to purchase 3.0 million and 1.2
million shares of common stock were not included in the computations of diluted EPS for the three
months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, because their effect was anti-dilutive. There
were 394,000 and 366,000 restricted stock shares excluded from the computations of diluted EPS for
the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, because their effect was
anti-dilutive.

In 2005, we entered into two interest rate swap agreements in order to obtain a fixed rate
with respect to $200.0 million of our outstanding floating rate debt and thereby reduce our
exposure to interest rate volatility. In January 2008, we cancelled one of the $100.0 million
interest rate swap agreements. We cancelled the agreement that started July 1, 2005 whereby we paid
a fixed rate of 4.12% and received a variable rate at 90 day LIBOR. The settlement fees related to
the cancellation of this interest rate swap agreement were minimal. Additionally, we de-designated
$25.0 million of the remaining swap as a cash flow hedge. The change in fair value on this portion
of the swap will be recorded through earnings. We also entered into three new interest rate swap
agreements in the first quarter of 2008 with notional amounts of $100.0 million, $50.0 million, and
$50.0 million. The swap agreements are three year swaps that fix $200.0 million of our outstanding
floating rate notes at a weighted average interest rate of 7.41%, including an applicable margin. We
will pay a fixed rate at 3.25%, 3.17% and 2.99%, respectively, on the swaps and receive a variable
rate at 90 day LIBOR. The swaps are effective on May 15, 2008. The swaps are designated and
qualify as fully effective cash flow hedges. All changes in fair value will be recorded in
accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the
related interest expense on the underlying borrowing is recognized.
On January 1, 2008, we partially adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements (SFAS No. 157) for financial assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 became effective
for financial assets and liabilities on January 1, 2008. On January 1, 2009, we will apply the
provisions of SFAS No. 157 for non-recurring fair value measurements of non-financial assets and
liabilities, such as goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, and property, plant and
equipment. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, thereby eliminating inconsistencies in guidance found
in various prior accounting pronouncements, and increases disclosures surrounding fair value
calculations.
SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-tiered fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to
valuation techniques used in fair value calculations. The three levels of inputs are defined as
follows:
Level 1 unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets accessible by us
Level 2 inputs that are observable in the marketplace other than those inputs classified as Level 1
Level 3 inputs that are unobservable in the marketplace and significant to the valuation

(unaudited)
SFAS No. 157 requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs. If a financial instrument uses inputs that fall in different levels of the
hierarchy, the instrument will be categorized based upon the lowest level of input that is
significant to the fair value calculation.
The only financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are our interest
rate swaps. The interest rate swaps are valued in the market using discounted cash flow
techniques. These techniques incorporate Level 1 and Level 2 inputs. These market inputs are
utilized in the discounted cash flow calculation considering the term, notional amount, discount
rate, yield curve and credit risk of the financial instrument. Significant inputs to the
derivative valuation for interest rate swaps are observable in the active markets and are
classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
The following fair value hierarchy table presents information about the Companys financial
instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant other observable inputs
(Level 2):

6. Employee Stock-based Compensation
Our board of directors granted 430,634 stock options and 28,850 shares of restricted stock to
employees on February 26, 2008. The grants were made primarily under our 2007 Incentive Plan with
6,850 shares of restricted stock under our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan and all vest ratably over
three years. We estimate that this grant will result in incremental stock-based compensation of
approximately $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The grant date fair value for the
restricted stock and the exercise price for the options was $6.70 per share, which was the closing
stock price on that date. The grant date fair value of the options was $2.75 and was determined
using the following assumptions:

We are a party to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although the
ultimate disposition of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes
the outcome of any claim that is pending or threatened, either

individually or on a combined basis,
will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or
results of operations. However, there can be no assurances that future costs would not be material
to our results of operations or liquidity for a particular period.
8. Segment and Product Information
We have three regional operating segments Atlantic, Southeast and Central with centralized
financial and operational oversight. We believe that these operating segments meet the aggregation
criteria prescribed in SFAS No. 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information, and thus have one reportable segment.

9. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. The provisions for financial instruments were effective for us as of
January 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, Effective
Date of FASB Statement No, 157, which deferred the effective date of SFAS 157, Fair Value
Measurements (SFAS 157), for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities except those
that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis.
We partially adopted SFAS 157 as of January 1, 2008, as it relates to financial instruments, and
the partial adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. (See Note
4) We are still assessing the impact that SFAS 157 will have on our nonrecurring measurements for
non-financial assets and liabilities in 2009.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159) which permits entities
to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. SFAS 159
was effective as of the January 1, 2008. We adopted SFAS 159, and we are not electing the fair
value option for any of our eligible financial instruments and other items that are not already
measured at fair value under existing standards.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) (SFAS 141R), Business
Combinations, which will change the accounting for business combinations. Under SFAS 141R, an
acquiring entity will be required to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a
transaction at the acquisition date fair value with limited exceptions. Additionally, SFAS 141R
will change the accounting treatment and disclosure for certain specific items in a business
combination. This pronouncement requires prospective application and will be effective for us for
acquisitions on or after January 1, 2009. Any acquisitions that we enter into prior to that date
will follow the accounting and disclosure required under existing GAAP until January 1, 2009. We
expect the application of SFAS 141R will have an impact on how we account for business combinations
once adopted, but the effect of the impact on our consolidated financial statements will depend
upon the acquisitions that occur after the effective date.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS 161) which requires expanded
disclosures about an entitys derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS 161 requires
qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative
disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures
about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments. This pronouncement
requires comparative disclosures only for periods subsequent to initial adoption and is effective
for us beginning January 1, 2009. We are currently assessing the impact SFAS 161 will have on our
consolidated financial statements.

COMPANY OVERVIEW
We are a leading supplier and manufacturer of structural and related building products for
residential new construction in the U.S. Our manufactured products include our factory-built roof
and floor trusses, wall panels and stairs, as well as engineered wood that we design and cut for
each home. We also manufacture custom millwork and trim that we market under the
Synboardtm brand name, and aluminum and vinyl windows. We also assemble
interior and exterior doors into pre-hung units. In addition, we supply our customers with a broad
offering of professional grade building products not manufactured by us, such as dimensional lumber
and lumber sheet goods, various window, door and millwork lines, as well as cabinets, roofing and
gypsum wallboard. Our full range of construction-related services includes professional
installation, turn-key framing and shell construction, and spans all our product categories.
We group our building products and services into five product categories: prefabricated
components, windows & doors, lumber & lumber sheet goods, millwork, and other building products &
services. Prefabricated components consist of floor trusses, roof trusses, wall panels, stairs, and
engineered wood. The windows & doors category is comprised of the manufacturing, assembly and
distribution of windows and the assembly and distribution of interior and exterior door units.
Lumber & lumber sheet goods include dimensional lumber, plywood and OSB products used in on-site
house framing. Millwork includes interior trim, exterior trim, columns and posts that we
distribute, as well as custom exterior features that we manufacture under the Synboard brand name.
The other building products & services category is comprised of products such as cabinets, gypsum,
roofing and insulation, and services such as turn-key framing, shell construction, design
assistance, and professional installation of products, spanning all of our product categories.
Our operating results are dependent on the following trends, events and uncertainties, some of
which are beyond our control:
|
|
|
Homebuilding Industry. Our business is driven primarily by the residential new
construction market, which is in turn dependent upon a number of factors, including interest
rates, consumer confidence, and the health of the economy and mortgage markets. Over the
past several quarters, many homebuilders significantly decreased their starts because of
lower demand and an excess of home inventory. Due to the decline in housing starts and
increased competition for homebuilder business, we expect increasing pressure on our
margins. The decline in housing starts continues to be widespread affecting all our markets.
However, we still believe there are several meaningful trends that indicate U.S. housing
demand will likely remain healthy in the long term and that the current pullback in the
housing industry is likely a trough in the cyclical nature of the residential construction
industry. These trends include rising immigration rates, the growing prevalence of second
homes, relatively low interest rates, and the aging of the housing stock. |
10
|
|
|
Targeting Large Production Homebuilders. In recent years, the homebuilding industry has
undergone significant consolidation, with the larger homebuilders substantially increasing
their market share. In accordance with this trend, our customer base has increasingly
shifted to production homebuilders the fastest growing segment of the residential
homebuilders. However, during the three months ended March 31, 2008, our sales to the top 10
homebuilders in the country declined 44.9% compared to the three months ended March 31,
2007. This decline is slightly higher than the overall decline in housing activity in our
markets. We attribute this to the highly competitive pricing in our markets as we believe a number of
our competitors are selling at or below cost as they become more liquidity constrained. We
expect that our ability to maintain strong relationships with the largest builders will be
vital to our ability to grow and expand into new markets as well as maintain our current
market share through the downturn. Additionally, during the downturn, we plan to further
expand our customer base including our custom homebuilder base. |
|
|
|
|
Expand into Multi-Family and Light Commercial Business. We believe we can diversify our
customer base and grow our sales by expanding into multi-family and light commercial
business. While we primarily serve the single family new home construction market, we
believe we can enter the multi-family and/or light commercial market in certain regions with
limited incremental costs as these end markets are especially conducive for sales of
prefabricated components. In the third quarter of 2007, we purchased Bama Truss and
Components, Inc. (Bama) which is a market leader in multi-family and light commercial
manufactured structural components based in Shelby, Alabama. The Bama location also gives
us the ability to manufacture steel roof trusses often used in multi-family and light
commercial construction. |
|
|
|
|
Use of Prefabricated Components. Prior to the current housing downturn, homebuilders
were increasingly using prefabricated components in order to realize increased efficiency
and improved quality. Shortening cycle time from start to completion was a key imperative
of the homebuilders during periods of strong consumer demand. With the current housing
downturn, that trend has decelerated as cycle time has less relevance. Customers who
traditionally used prefabricated components, for the most part, still do. However the
conversion of customers to this product offering has slowed. We expect this trend to
continue at least for the duration of this downturn. In response, we have reduced our
manufacturing capacity and delayed plans to open new facilities. |
|
|
|
|
Expansion of Existing and New Facilities. We are seeking to increase our market
penetration through the introduction of additional distribution and manufacturing facilities
in markets that are underserved. In light of the current operating conditions, however, we
have delayed plans to open new manufacturing facilities and distribution centers in the
short-term until economic conditions improve. New facilities, including acquisitions,
generated incremental sales of approximately $6.3 million for the three months ended March
31, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007. |
|
|
|
|
Economic Conditions. Economic changes both nationally and locally in our markets impact
our financial performance. The building products supply industry is dependent on new home
construction and subject to cyclical market changes. Our operations are subject to
fluctuations arising from changes in supply and demand, national and international economic
conditions, labor costs, competition, government regulation, trade policies and other
factors that affect the homebuilding industry such as demographic trends, interest rates,
single-family housing starts, employment levels, consumer confidence, and the availability
of credit to homebuilders, contractors and homeowners. During the last half of 2007, the
mortgage markets experienced substantial disruption related to subprime mortgages. This
mortgage market disruption is continuing and has now had a three-fold effect on the current
homebuilder market. First, lenders have tightened the qualification criteria for mortgages,
effectively taking a substantial number of potential home buyers out of the market and
therefore reducing the demand for new homes. Second, a number of mortgage lenders and
buyers of mortgage securities have exited the mortgage market, thereby reducing available
funds for new mortgages and the demand for mortgage securities which also reduces the number
of potential home buyers. Finally, the increase in defaults as a result of the subprime
mortgage crisis has increased the inventory of homes for sale, creating more competition
for homebuilders. Although the federal government is enacting legislation to assist with
the subprime mortgage crisis and interest rates have decreased since the end of the year,
given the substantial number of potential foreclosures nationwide, more meaningful
legislation may need to be enacted and liquidity in the mortgage market will need to be
restored before a long-term recovery occurs in the residential construction industry and
therefore our industry. |
|
|
|
|
Cost of Materials. Prices of wood products, which are subject to cyclical market
fluctuations, may adversely impact operating income when prices rapidly rise or fall within
a relatively short period of time. We purchase certain materials, including lumber
products, which are then sold to customers as well as used as direct production inputs for
our manufactured and prefabricated products. Short-term changes in the cost of these
materials, some of which are subject to significant fluctuations, are sometimes passed on to
our customers, but our pricing quotation periods may limit our ability to pass on such price
changes. Our inability to pass on material price increases to our customers could adversely
impact our operating income. |
11
|
|
|
Controlling Expenses. Another important aspect of our strategy is controlling costs and
enhancing our status as a low-cost building materials supplier in the markets we serve. We
pay close attention to managing our working capital and operating expenses. We have a best
practices operating philosophy, which encourages increasing efficiency, lowering costs,
improving working capital, and maximizing profitability and cash flow. We constantly analyze
our workforce productivity to achieve the optimum, cost-efficient labor mix for our
facilities. Further, we pay careful attention to our logistics function and its effect on
our shipping and handling costs. |
CURRENT OPERATING CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK
Housing starts continued to experience year-over-year declines during the first quarter 2008.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, housing starts for March 2008 were at a seasonally adjusted
annual rate of 0.927 million, which is 40.9% below the March 2007 rate of 1.569 million and 14.2%
below the December 2007 rate of 1.080 million. First quarter 2008 housing starts for our markets
decreased approximately 39.1% compared to the first quarter 2007. Sequentially, housing starts in
our markets decreased 17.9% from the fourth quarter of 2007. In addition, market prices for lumber
and lumber sheet goods in the first quarter 2008 were on average 12.8% lower than a year ago. As
the housing downturn continues, we are trying to expand our customer base to generate incremental
sales. Conserving capital is also a main focus. As the utilization of our plants declines, we will
need to invest our capital into our existing operations. We feel this investment is worthwhile as
once the housing market turns around, we will be able to effectively increase our utilization to
quickly meet increasing customer demand.
In this environment, we are managing our business day-to-day, adjusting to customer demand. We
believe we can mitigate a portion of the non-controllable macroeconomic factors by continuing to
grow our market share and by diligently managing our cost structure. We are beginning to be limited
on reducing our largest controllable costs, salaries and benefits, as we are at core staffing
levels at many of our locations given our current locations and operations. Additional declines in
housing activity in our markets and increased competitive pressure could make it more difficult for
us to maintain our margins which could result in additional impairment of our goodwill and the need
for a valuation allowance against some or all of our deferred tax assets. Given the current market
weakness, we think difficult market conditions affecting our business will continue to have a
negative effect on our operating results through the first half of 2009.
While the homebuilding industry is currently in a down cycle, we still believe that the
long-term outlook for the housing industry is positive due to growth in the underlying
demographics. We believe our market leadership and financial strength afford us the ability to
manage through the downturn and outperform our peers. We will continue to work diligently to
achieve the appropriate balance of short-term cost reductions while maintaining the expertise to
grow the business when market conditions improve. We want to avoid taking steps that will limit our
ability to compete and create long-term shareholder value.
SEASONALITY AND OTHER FACTORS
Our first and fourth quarters have historically been, and are expected to continue to be,
adversely affected by weather patterns in some of our markets, causing reduced construction
activity. In addition, quarterly results historically have reflected, and are expected to continue
to reflect, fluctuations from period to period arising from the following:
|
|
|
The volatility of lumber prices; |
|
|
|
|
The cyclical nature of the homebuilding industry; |
|
|
|
|
General economic conditions in the markets in which we compete; |
|
|
|
|
The pricing policies of our competitors; |
|
|
|
|
The production schedules of our customers; and |
|
|
|
|
The effects of weather. |
The composition and level of working capital typically change during periods of increasing
sales as we carry more inventory and receivables. Working capital levels typically increase in the
second and third quarters of the year due to higher sales during the peak residential construction
season. These increases have in the past resulted in lower or negative operating cash flows during
this peak
12
season, which generally have been financed through our revolving credit facility or cash
on hand. Collection of receivables and reduction in inventory levels following the peak building
and construction season have more than offset this negative cash flow. More recently, we have
relied less on our revolving credit facility due to our ability to generate sufficient operating
cash flows. Currently, we have nothing drawn on our credit facility. We believe our revolving
credit facility and our available cash on hand will continue to be sufficient to cover seasonal
working capital needs.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2007
Sales. Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2008 were $270.5 million, a 34.2% decrease
from sales of $411.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. In the three months ended
March 31, 2008, housing starts in our markets decreased approximately 39.1%. In addition, lower market prices for commodity
lumber and lumber sheet goods had a 0.7% negative impact on our sales. As the declining housing
activity within our markets continues, we are experiencing increased competitive conditions. We
have responded by lowering prices on virtually all of our product categories. Market share gains
and, to a lesser extent, sales from new operations partially offset the decline in housing starts
and market prices for commodity lumber products.

We continued to improve our sales mix during the quarter, transitioning from commodity items
to higher margin, value-added products. We have also seen an increase in our other building
products & services category as a percentage of our total sales. As our homebuilder customers
continue to downsize their operations, they have increasingly utilized our turn-key installation
services. We felt the negative impact of decreased housing starts across all our product
categories. For the lumber & lumber sheet goods category, our unit volume accounted for 88.8% of
our sales decline in this category while our prices accounted for 11.2% of the decline. This
equates to $44.5 million and $5.6 million in sales declines due to unit volumes and price,
respectively.
Our focus on growing our windows & doors and installation business has mitigated some of
the downward pressure from decreased housing activity. Our installation business has grown during
the downturn and is a value-added service as we only install products we sell. We believe our
value-added products and services give us a competitive advantage helping us attract new business
during this down cycle.
Gross Margin. Gross margin decreased $44.2 million, or 42.2%. Our gross margin dollars
decreased primarily due to lower sales volume and price concessions to our customers in response to
increasingly competitive conditions. The gross margin percentage
13
decreased from 25.4% in 2007 to
22.3% in 2008. The de-leveraging of lower sales volumes to fixed costs of sales lowered our gross
margins by approximately 157 basis points. In addition, the rising percentage of installed sales,
which traditionally carry lower gross margins, had a negative impact on our gross margins during
the quarter. The balance of the decline is primarily related to lower pricing on all of our
products. If market conditions continue to create increased competitive pressure, we may continue
to see margin compression during the remainder of 2008.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased $17.9 million, or 18.4%. Our salaries and benefits expense, excluding the stock-based
compensation expense, decreased 23.8% while our full-time equivalent employee headcount decreased
23.6%. Professional services fees decreased $1.6 million, the result of the company managing this
semi-variable cost in response to current market conditions.
As a percent of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 23.7% in
2007 to 29.4% in 2008. Our fixed costs did not adjust with the lower sales volume and had a
negative impact on our selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales. We
continue to monitor our operating cost structure closely and plan to make adjustments as necessary.
Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense was $6.5 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2008, a decrease of $0.2 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to higher
average debt balances in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the first quarter of 2008. This
decrease was partially offset by a decrease in interest income due to lower average cash balances
and lower interest rates in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the first quarter of 2007.
Income Tax (Benefit) Expense. We had an income tax benefit with an effective tax rate of
38.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to income tax expense with an effective
tax rate of 37.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
For information regarding our liquidity and capital resources see our annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. We anticipate receiving $12 to $17 million in
income tax refunds in subsequent quarters in 2008. There have been no other material
changes in our liquidity, commitments for capital expenditures or sources and mix of capital
resources.
Consolidated Cash Flows
Cash used in operating activities was $16.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008
compared to cash provided by operating activities of $21.7 million for the three months ended March
31, 2007. The decrease was primarily due to the net loss in the first quarter of 2008 and changes
in working capital. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, we experienced a slight build in
our inventories in March as our sales per ship day increased 6.7% over December 2007 levels. The
increase in accounts receivable is primarily related to an increase in other receivables,
specifically an $11.5 million increase in income tax receivable, which was partially offset by
collections of our trade and rebates receivable. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, we
collected accounts receivable and reduced inventory levels as our sales volume trended downward.
During the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, cash flows used for investing
activities were $0.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Capital expenditures decreased
$1.4 million from $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 to $1.2 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2008 as we strive to conserve capital in the current operating
environment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1.0 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2008 compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The decrease was
primarily due to a reduction in cash received from stock option exercises.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. The provisions for financial instruments were effective for us as of
January 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, Effective
Date of FASB Statement No, 157, which deferred the effective date of SFAS 157, Fair Value
Measurements (SFAS 157), for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities except those
that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis.
We partially adopted SFAS 157 as of January 1, 2008, as it relates to financial instruments, and
the partial adoption
14
did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. (See Note
4) We are still assessing the impact that SFAS 157 will have on our nonrecurring measurements for
non-financial assets and liabilities in 2009.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159) which permits entities
to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. SFAS 159
was effective as of the January 1, 2008. We adopted SFAS 159, and we are not electing the fair
value option for any of our eligible financial instruments and other items that are not already
measured at fair value under existing standards.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) (SFAS 141R), Business
Combinations, which will change the accounting for business combinations. Under SFAS 141R, an
acquiring entity will be required to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a
transaction at the acquisition date fair value with limited exceptions. Additionally, SFAS 141R
will change the accounting treatment and disclosure for certain specific items in a business
combination. This pronouncement requires prospective application and will be effective for us for
acquisitions on or after January 1, 2009. Any acquisitions that we enter into prior to that date
will follow the accounting and disclosure required under existing GAAP until January 1, 2009. We
expect the application of SFAS 141R will have an impact on how we account for business combinations
once adopted, but the effect of the impact on our consolidated financial statements will depend
upon the acquisitions that occur after the effective date.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS 161) which requires expanded
disclosures about an entitys derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS 161 requires
qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative
disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures
about credit -risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments. This pronouncement
requires comparative disclosures only for periods subsequent to initial adoption and is effective
for us beginning January 1, 2009. We are currently assessing the impact SFAS 161 will have on our
consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We experience changes in interest expense when market interest rates change. Changes in our
debt could also increase these risks. We utilize interest rate swap contracts to fix interest rates
on a portion of our outstanding long-term debt balances. Based on debt outstanding on March 31, 2008, the interest
rate swap contract in place at March 31, 2008, and the interest rate swap contracts that will be
effective on May 15, 2008, a 1.0% increase in interest rates would result in approximately
$0.7 million of additional interest expense annually. A discussion of the new interest rate swap agreements entered into the first quarter of 2008 is contained in Note 4.
We purchase certain materials, including lumber products, which are then sold to customers as
well as used as direct production inputs for our manufactured products that we deliver. Short-term
changes in the cost of these materials, some of which are subject to significant fluctuations, are
sometimes, but not always, passed on to our customers. Our delayed ability to pass on material
price increases to our customers can adversely impact our operating income.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Controls Evaluation and Related CEO and CFO Certifications. Our management, with the
participation of our principal executive officer (CEO) and principal financial officer (CFO),
conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls
and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. The controls
evaluation was conducted by our Disclosure Committee, comprised of senior representatives from our
finance, accounting, internal audit, and legal departments under the supervision of our CEO and
CFO.
Certifications of our CEO and our CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), are attached as exhibits to this
quarterly report. This Controls and Procedures section includes the information concerning the
controls evaluation referred to in the certifications, and it should be read in conjunction with
the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. We do not expect that our disclosure controls
and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A system of controls and procedures, no
matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that
the objectives of the system are met. Because of the limitations in all such systems, no evaluation
can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the
Company have been detected. Furthermore, the design of any system of controls and procedures is
based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and
15
there can be no
assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future
conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective
system of controls and procedures, misstatements or omissions due to error or fraud may occur and
not be detected.
Scope of the Controls Evaluation. The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures
included a review of their objectives and design, the Companys implementation of the controls and
procedures and the effect of the controls and procedures on the information generated for use in
this quarterly report. In the course of the evaluation, we sought to identify whether we had any
data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and to confirm that appropriate corrective action,
including process improvements, were being undertaken if needed. This type of evaluation is
performed on a quarterly basis so that conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures can be reported in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Many of the
components of our disclosure controls and procedures are also evaluated by our internal audit
department, our legal department and by personnel in our finance organization. The overall goals of
these various evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and procedures on an
ongoing basis, and to maintain them as dynamic systems that change as conditions warrant.
Conclusions regarding Disclosure Controls. Based on the required evaluation of our disclosure
controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of March 31, 2008, we maintain
disclosure controls and procedures that are effective in providing reasonable assurance that
information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During the period covered by this
report, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in
connection with the evaluation described above that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in
the ordinary course. We carry insurance coverage in such amounts in excess of our self-insured
retention as we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and that may or may not cover any
or all of our liabilities in respect of claims and lawsuits. We do not believe that the ultimate
resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial
position, cash flows or results of operations.
Although our business and facilities are subject to federal, state and local environmental
regulation, environmental regulation does not have a material impact on our operations. We believe
that our facilities are in material compliance with such laws and regulations. As owners and
lessees of real property, we can be held liable for the investigation or remediation of
contamination on such properties, in some circumstances without regard to whether we knew of or
were responsible for such contamination. Our current expenditures with respect to environmental
investigation and remediation at our facilities are minimal, although no assurance can be provided
that more significant remediation may not be required in the future as a result of spills or
releases of petroleum products or hazardous substances or the discovery of unknown environmental
conditions.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider
the factors discussed in Part 1, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2007, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or
future results. The risks described in our annual report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing
our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem
to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or
operating results.
