Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Simpson Manufacturing Co., Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). Investments in 50% or less owned entities are accounted for using either the cost or the equity method. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of prior year have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2024 presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the Company's Total Assets, Total Stockholders' Equity, Net sales or Net income in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes that these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation under GAAP.
Interim Reporting Period
The accompanying unaudited quarterly Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting interim financial information and instructions on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”).
The unaudited quarterly Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly the financial information set forth therein in accordance with GAAP. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data provided herein were derived from audited consolidated financial statements included in the 2023 Form 10-K, but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The Company’s quarterly results fluctuate. As a result, the Company believes the results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future periods.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company classifies investments that are highly liquid and have maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase as cash equivalents.
Current Estimated Credit Loss - Allowance for doubtful accounts
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable for estimated future expected credit losses resulting from customers' failure to make payments on its accounts receivable. The Company determines the estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable by considering several factors, including (1) specific information on the financial condition and the current creditworthiness of customers, (2) credit rating, (3) payment history and historical experience, (4) aging of the accounts receivable, and (5) reasonable and supportable forecasts about collectability. The Company also reserves 100% of the amounts deemed uncollectible due to a customer's deteriorating financial condition or bankruptcy. Every quarter, the Company evaluates the customer group using the accounts receivable aging report and its best judgment when considering changes in customers' credit ratings, level of delinquency, customers' historical payments and loss experience, current market and economic conditions, and expectations of future market and economic conditions.

The changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are outlined in the table below:

| December 31, 2023 | Expense (Deductions), net | Write-Offs 1 | March 31, 2024
Allowance for doubtful accounts | $ | 3,882 |  | (416) |  | (539) |  | $ | 2,927 |

1 Amount is net of recoveries and the effect of foreign currency fluctuations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between unrelated market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that unrelated market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured and classified under a three-tier fair valuation hierarchy based on the observability of the inputs available in the market: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The carrying amounts of trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair values of interest rate and foreign currency contracts are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of the Company’s contingent consideration related to acquisitions is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy, as these amounts are based on unobservable inputs such as management estimates and entity-specific assumptions and are evaluated on an ongoing basis.
The following tables summarize the financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value for the Company as of March 31, 2024 and 2023:

| 2024 |  | 2023 |
(in thousands) | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 |  | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3

(1) The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, representing money market funds traded in an active market with relatively short maturities, are reported on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024 and 2023 as a component of "Cash and cash equivalents".
(2) The carrying amounts of our term loan and revolver approximate fair value as of March 31, 2024 based upon their terms and conditions in comparison to debt instruments with similar terms and conditions available on the same date.
(3) Derivatives for interest rate, foreign exchange and forward swap contracts are discussed in Note 7.
Derivative Instruments
The Company uses derivative instruments as a risk management tool to mitigate the potential impact of certain market risks. Foreign currency and interest rate risk are the primary market risks the Company manages through the use of derivative instruments, which are accounted for as cash flow hedges or net investment hedges under the accounting standards and carried at fair value as other current or noncurrent assets or as other current or other long-term liabilities. Assets and liabilities with the legal right of offset are not offset in the consolidated balance sheets. Net deferred gains and losses related to changes in fair value of cash flow hedges are included in accumulated other comprehensive income/loss (“OCI”), a component of stockholders' equity, and are reclassified into the line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income in which the hedged items are recorded in the same period the hedged item affects earnings. The effective portion of gains and losses attributable to net investment hedges is recorded net of tax to OCI to offset the change in the carrying value of the net investment being hedged. Recognition in earnings of amounts previously recorded to OCI are limited to circumstances such as complete or substantially complete liquidation of the net investment in the hedged foreign operation. Changes in fair value of any derivatives that are determined to be ineffective are immediately reclassified from OCI into earnings.
9

Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions
Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The acquisition method requires identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the business acquired be recognized and measured at fair value on the acquisition date, which is the date that the acquirer obtains control of the acquired business. The amount by which the fair value of consideration transferred as the purchase price exceeds the net fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill.
Acquisitions that do not meet the definition of a business under the ASC 805 are accounted for as an acquisition of assets, whereby all of the cost of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including certain transactions costs, are allocated on a relative fair value basis. Accordingly, goodwill is not recognized in an asset acquisition.
Revenue Recognition
Generally, the Company recognizes revenue under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 606) Revenue From Contracts With Customers. Revenue from a contract with a customer exists when the goods are shipped, services are rendered, and the related invoice is generated. The Company has identified each product or service specified in the invoice to be distinct and the duration of the contract to not extend beyond the promised goods or services already transferred. The transaction price of each performance obligation is specified in the invoice that is based on its relative stated standalone selling price. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a product to a customer at a point in time.
Our shipping terms provide the primary indicator of the transfer of control. The Company’s general shipping terms are Incoterm C.P.T. (F.O.B. shipping point), where the title, and risk and rewards of ownership transfer at the point when the products are no longer on the Company’s premises. Other Incoterms are allowed as exceptions depending on the product or service being sold and the nature of the sale. The Company recognizes revenue based on the consideration specified in the invoice with a customer, excluding any sales incentives, discounts, and amounts collected on behalf of third parties (i.e., governmental tax authorities). Based on historical experience with the customer, the customer’s purchasing pattern, and its significant experience selling products, the Company concluded that a significant reversal in the cumulative amount of revenue recognized would not occur when the uncertainty (if any) is resolved (that is, when the total amount of purchases is known). Refer to Note 2 for additional information.
The Company presents taxes collected and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis in the consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected from a customer (e.g., sales, use, value added, and some excise taxes) are excluded from revenue.
Leases
The Company has operating leases for certain facilities, equipment, autos and data centers. As an accounting policy for short-term leases, the Company elected to not recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and liability if, at the commencement date, the lease (1) has a term of 12 months or less and (2) does not include renewal and purchase options that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. Monthly payments on short-term leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the full lease term.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense related to the estimated fair value of restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis, net of estimated forfeitures, over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting term of three or four years. Stock-based compensation related to performance share grants are measured based on grant date fair value and expensed on a graded basis over the service period of the awards, which is generally a performance period of three years. The performance conditions are based on the Company's achievement of revenue growth and return on invested capital over the performance period, and are evaluated for the probability of vesting at the end of each reporting period with changes in expected results cumulatively recognized as an adjustment to expense. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value of restricted stock grants are evaluated and revised, as necessary, to reflect market conditions and the Company’s experience.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are calculated using an asset and liability approach. The provision for income taxes includes federal, state and foreign taxes currently payable, and deferred taxes due to temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases
10

of assets and liabilities. In addition, future tax benefits are recognized to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not. This method gives consideration to the future tax consequences of the deferred income tax items and immediately recognizes changes in income tax laws in the year of enactment.
The Company uses an estimated annual tax rate to measure the tax benefit or tax expense recognized in each interim period.
Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Potentially dilutive shares are included in the diluted per-share calculations using the treasury stock method for all periods when the effect of their inclusion is dilutive.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07 requiring enhanced segment disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) included within segment operating profit or loss. Additionally, ASU 2023-07 requires a description of how the CODM utilizes segment operating profit or loss to assess segment performance. The requirements of ASU 2023-07 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company's annual reporting requirements will be effective for fiscal 2024 and interim reporting requirements will be effective beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Early adoption is permitted and retrospective application is required for all periods presented. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its related Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 requiring enhanced income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires disclosure of specific categories and disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table. ASU 2023-09 also requires disclosure of disaggregated information related to income taxes paid, income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit, and income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations. The requirements of ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company does not believe any other new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB that have not become effective will have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Disaggregated revenue
The Company disaggregates net sales into the following major product groups as described in its segment information included in these interim financial statements under Note 13.
Wood Construction Products Revenue. Wood construction products represented approximately 84.7% and 85.1% of total net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Concrete Construction Products Revenue. Concrete construction products represented approximately 14.8% and 14.3% of total net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 respectively.
Customer acceptance criteria. Generally, there are no customer acceptance criteria included in the Company's standard sales agreement with customers. When an arrangement with the customer does not meet the criteria to be accounted for as a revenue contract under the standard, the Company recognizes revenue in the amount of nonrefundable consideration received when the Company has transferred control of the goods or services and has stopped transferring (and has no obligation to transfer) additional goods or services. The Company offers certain customers discounts for paying invoices ahead of the due date, which are generally 30 to 60 days after the issue date.
11

Other revenue. Service sales, representing after-market repair and maintenance, engineering activities and software license sales and services were less than 0.5% of net sales and recognized as the services are completed or by transferring control over a product to a customer at a point in time. Services may be sold separately or in bundled packages. The typical contract length for services is generally less than one year. For bundled packages, the Company accounts for individual services separately when they are distinct within the context of the contract. A distinct service is separately identifiable from other items in the bundled package if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. The consideration (including any discounts) is allocated between separate services in a bundle based on their stand-alone selling prices. The stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately sells the services.
Reconciliation of contract balances
Contract assets are the right to receive consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Company has transferred to a customer when that right is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Contract liabilities are recorded for any services billed to customers and not yet recognizable if the contract period has commenced or for the amount collected from customers in advance of the contract period commencing. As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no material contract assets or contract liabilities from contracts with customers.

4. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company currently maintains the Simpson Manufacturing Co., Inc. Amended and Restated 2011 Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) as its only equity incentive plan. Under the 2011 Plan, no more than 16.3 million shares of the Company’s common stock in aggregate may be issued, including shares already issued pursuant to prior awards granted under the 2011 Plan. Shares of the Company's common stock underlying awards to be issued pursuant to the 2011 Plan are registered under the Securities Act. Under the 2011 Plan, the Company may grant restricted stock and restricted stock units. The Company currently intends to award only performance-based stock units ("PSUs") and/or time-based restricted stock units ("RSUs").
The Company allocates stock-based compensation expense amongst cost of sales, research and development and other engineering expense, selling expense, or general and administrative expense based on the job functions performed by the employees to whom the stock-based compensation is awarded. Stock-based compensation capitalized in inventory was immaterial for all periods presented. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to its equity plans for employees of $5.3 million and $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company granted an aggregate of 146 thousand RSUs and PSUs to the Company's employees, including officers at an estimated weighted average fair value of $178.35 per share based on the closing price (adjusted for certain market factors primarily the present value of dividends) of the Company's common stock on the grant
12

date. The RSUs and PSUs granted to the Company's employees may be time-based, performance-based, or time and performance-based. Certain of the PSUs are granted to officers and key employees, where the number of performance-based awards to be issued is based on the achievement of certain Company performance criteria established in the award agreement over a cumulative three year period. These awards cliff vest after three years. In addition, these same officers and key employees also receive time-based RSUs, which vest pursuant to a three-year graded vesting schedule. Time based RSUs are granted to the Company's employees excluding officers and certain key employees, vest ratably over the four year vesting-term of the award.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company's aggregate unamortized stock compensation expense was approximately $38.1 million which is expected to be recognized in expense over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years.

10. Leases
The Company has operating leases for certain facilities, equipment and automobiles. The existing operating leases expire at various dates through 2036, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to five years. The Company measured the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments are discounted using the Company's incremental borrowing rate. The Company measured the ROU assets at the amount at which the lease liability is recognized plus initial direct costs incurred or prepayment amounts. The ROU assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

12. Commitments and Contingencies
Environmental
The Company’s policy with regard to environmental liabilities is to accrue for future environmental assessments and remediation costs when information becomes available that indicates that it is probable that the Company is liable for any related claims and assessments and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimable. The Company does not believe that any such matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.
Litigation and Potential Claims
From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and other matters arising in the normal course of business. Corrosion, hydrogen embrittlement, cracking, material hardness, wood pressure-treating chemicals, misinstallations, misuse, design and assembly flaws, manufacturing defects, labeling defects, product formula defects, inaccurate chemical mixes, adulteration, environmental conditions, or other factors can contribute to failure of fasteners, connectors, anchors, adhesives, specialty chemicals, such as fiber reinforced polymers, and tool products. In addition, inaccuracies may occur in product information, descriptions and instructions found in catalogs, packaging, data sheets, and the Company’s website.
The resolution of any claim or litigation is subject to inherent uncertainty and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.
13. Segment Information

The three regional segments are the North America segment (comprised primarily of the Company’s operations in the U.S. and Canada), the Europe segment, and the Asia/Pacific segment (comprised of the Company’s operations in Asia, the South Pacific, and the Middle East). These segments are similar
19

in several ways, including the types of materials used, the production processes, the distribution channels and the product applications.

Overview
We design, manufacture and sell building construction products that are of high quality and performance, easy to use and cost-effective for customers. We operate in three business segments determined by geographic region: North America, Europe and Asia/Pacific.
Our organic opportunities focused on expanding our product line with our current customers while also identifying new opportunities within our core competencies of wood and concrete products. These new growth opportunities focused on gaining share with our primary customer markets.
In order to grow in these markets, we aspire to be among the leaders in engineered load-rated construction building products and systems and digital product offerings while leveraging our engineering expertise, deep-rooted relationships with top builders, engineers, contractors, code officials and distributors, along with our ongoing commitment to testing, research and innovation. Importantly, we currently have existing products, testing results, distribution and manufacturing capabilities to support our Company ambitions and key growth initiatives. This will ultimately be a function of expanding our sales and/or marketing functions to promote our products to different end users and distribution channels, expanding our customer base, and potentially introducing new products in the future.
In the past two years, we have reorganized our sales teams to customer market focused teams dedicated to serving the following markets:
•Residential;
•Commercial;
•Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEM");
•National Retail; and
•Component Manufacturers
Our commitment to continuous improvement has fostered our core Company ambitions, which we continue to pursue including:
•Strengthen our values-based culture;
•Be the partner of choice;
•Be an innovative leader in the markets we operate;
•Above market growth relative to the United States housing starts;
•An operating income margin within the top quartile of our proxy peers; and
•Integrate ETANCO and restoring our return on invested capital to be within the top quartile of our proxy peers.
We have made progress towards our key growth initiatives since they were first announced in 2021. A few recent examples include:
•The integration of ETANCO which has resulted in additional scale for our legacy European operations, as well as the opportunity to realize synergies in those operations;
•Continued growing United States sales volumes above United States housing starts growth;
•Formed a new partnership agreement with a large independent co-op serving more than 12,000 retail hardware stores, home centers, and pro lumber dealers, which led to significant conversions of our connectors, fasteners and anchor products;
•Recaptured a number of lumber dealers in North America with the opportunity to expand the products lines;
•Rolled out 14 new products, globally, during the first quarter of 2024;
•Expansion of our Outdoor Accents® decorative hardware, fasteners and anchors product lines, which contributed to our growth in the do-it-yourself ("DIY") or construction contractor segments of our national retail market;
•Converted component manufacturers to using our truss software and purchasing our truss plate and connectors solution sets, including a major component manufacture; and
•Completed our path-to-market shift away from two-step distribution in North America, enabling us to sell our complete product line and drive additional market share gains.
23

We believe this progress is the result of our high service levels, increasingly diverse portfolio of products and software as well as our commitment to innovation and developing complete solutions for the markets we serve. As we continue to make progress on our key growth initiatives, we believe we can continue to achieve above market growth in the United States relative to United States housing starts for fiscal 2024 and beyond. These examples further emulate our Founder, Barclay Simpson’s, nine principles of doing business, and more specifically the focus and obsession on customers and users.
Beginning this quarter, we now include consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure. We use Adjusted EBITDA to provide additional insight into the Company’s operating performance in light of the significant levels of growth investment we are continuing to make in the business and the effect accelerated depreciation and acquisition and integration costs will have on our operating results. This will also provide a better approximation of our cash flows compared to operating income.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
The Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations depends in large part on the level of United States housing starts and residential construction activity. Overall housing starts increased slightly during the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, with single family starts increasing significantly during the first quarter of 2024. The increase in single family starts was mostly offset by lower multi-family housing starts, which are more sensitive to interest rate increases and inflation. Lower housing starts in the United States could result in lower demand, which would affect the Company's sales and possibly operating profit.
Unlike lumber or other products that have a more direct correlation to United States housing starts, our products are used to a greater extent in areas that are subject to natural forces, such as seismic or wind events. Our products are generally used in a sequential progression that follows the construction process. Residential and commercial construction begins with the foundation, followed by the wall and the roof systems, and then the installation of our products, which flow into a project or a house according to these schedules.
In prior years, our sales were heavily seasonal with operating results varying from quarter to quarter depending on weather conditions that could delay construction starts. Our sales and income have historically been lower in the first and fourth quarters than in the second and third quarters of a fiscal year. Due to efforts in diversifying our global footprint with the acquisition of ETANCO and changing our path to market in the United States, sales from our product line, customer base and customer purchases are becoming less seasonal. Political and economic events such as rising energy costs, volatility in the steel market, stressed product transportation systems and increasing interest rates can also have an effect on our gross and operating profits as well. Changes in raw material cost could impact the amount of inventory on-hand, and negatively affect our gross profit and operating margins depending on the timing of raw material purchases or how much sales prices can be increased to offset any increases in raw material costs.
Our operations also expose us to risks associated with pandemics, epidemics or other public health crises.
Business Segment Information
Historically, our North America segment has generated more revenues from wood construction products compared to concrete construction products. North America net sales increased slightly for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to March 31, 2023, due to higher sales volumes of 8%, measured by pounds shipped, which were offset by price decreases implemented during 2023 and increased rebates due to increased volume sales, as well as an increase in estimated rebates to home builders. Our wood construction product net sales decreased 0.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to March 31, 2023 as described above. Our concrete construction product sales increased 6.0% over the same periods, due to higher volumes. Over the last several years, our historical average volume growth in North America has exceeded the housing starts market growth by approximately 250 basis points. We believe the United States 2024 housing starts market will grow in the low single digits relative to fiscal year 2023 housing starts and one of our ambitions is to continue to grow above market. With the investments we have made and continue to make, we believe we are well positioned to achieve that ambition.
During 2024, work continued on our Columbus facility expansion as well as the building of the replacement of our Gallatin facility. We expect the expansion and replacement of these facilities will improve our overall service, production efficiencies and safety in the workplace, as well as reduce our reliance on certain outsourced finished goods and component products and continue to ensure we have ample capacity to meet our customer needs. These investments reinforce our core business model differentiators to remain the partner of choice as we continue to produce products locally and ensure superior levels of customer service.
24

Europe sales decreased 3.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to March 31, 2023, primarily due to lower sales volumes, primarily in the residential market, which was partly offset by the positive effect of approximately $2.2 million in foreign currency translation. Wood construction product sales decreased 3.2% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to March 31, 2023 and concrete construction product sales, which are mostly project based, decreased 4.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to March 31, 2023. Gross profit decreased $2.8 million primarily due to lower net sales as well as a lower gross profit margin, mostly on higher warehouse and freight costs. Operating income decreased $5.2 million on higher operating and integration expenses, offset partly from a release of contingent tax liability associated with an acquisition and an increase in foreign currency gains. Fiscal 2024 operating margins will include anticipated integration costs estimated to range between $4.0 million to $5.0 million. We currently anticipate Europe 2024 results to be impacted by economic headwinds but also believe in the long term potential given Europe's on-going housing shortage (with an increasing use of wood construction) and new environmental regulations for which we have products and solutions.
Our Asia/Pacific segment has generated revenues from both wood and concrete construction products. We believe that the Asia/Pacific segment is not significant to our overall performance.
Business Outlook
The Company updated its financial outlook for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 based on one quarter of actual results, and its latest expectations regarding demand trends, raw material costs and operating expenses as of follow:
◦Operating margin is estimated to be in the range of 20.0% to 21.5%, including approximately $85.5 million in depreciation and amortization expense.
◦The effective tax rate is estimated to be in the range of 24.5% to 25.5%, including both federal and state income tax rates as well as international income tax rates, and assuming no tax law changes are enacted.
◦Capital expenditures are estimated to be approximately $185 million, which includes $105 million for the Columbus, Ohio facility expansion and the new Gallatin, Tennessee fastener facility construction.

Net sales decreased 0.7% to $530.6 million from $534.4 million. As noted above, North America sales volume increased 8%, measured in pounds, and were offset by price decreases implemented during 2023, increased volume rebates as a result of increased volume sales, and an increase in estimated rebates to home builders, as well as a decrease in Europe sales volumes. Wood construction product sales, including sales of connectors, truss plates, fastening systems, fasteners and shearwalls, represented 85% of the Company's total sales in the first quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Concrete construction product sales, including sales of adhesives, chemicals, mechanical anchors, powder actuated tools and reinforcing fiber materials, represented 15% and 14% of the Company's total sales in the first quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Gross profit decreased 3.3% to $244.6 million from $252.9 million primarily due to higher overhead costs partially offset by lower raw material costs. As a result, consolidated gross margins were 46.1% compared to 47.3% last year. From a product perspective, gross margin decreased to 46.1% from 47.1% for wood construction products and decreased to 46.5% from 47.1% for concrete construction products, respectively.
Research and development and engineering expense increased 5.6% to $21.9 million from $20.7 million, primarily due to increased personnel costs of $1.3 million, $0.4 million in depreciation and amortization offset by a decrease of $0.5 million of variable compensation.
Selling expense increased 12.0% to $54.5 million from $48.7 million, primarily due to increased personnel costs of $4.5 million, $1.2 million in advertising and trade shows costs, and $0.9 million in travel related costs offset by a decrease of $1.1 million of variable compensat ion.
General and administrative expense increased 10.2% to $70.2 million from $63.7 million, primarily due to increased personnel costs of $3.5 million, $2.6 million in software licensing & Information Technology ("IT") costs, and $1.9 million in professional service fees offset by a decrease of $1.4 million of variable compensatio n.
Our effective income tax rat e decreased to 23.4% from 25.1%.
26

Consolidated net income was $75.4 million compared to $88.0 million. Diluted earnings per share was $1.77 compared to $2.05.
Adjusted EBITDA 1 of $117.3 million decreased 14.4% compared to $137.0 million, primarily due to lower gross profits on lower net sales as well as increased personnel costs, IT costs and professional service fees, which were partly offset by decreases in variable compensation costs.

Effect of New Accounting Standards
See "Note 1 Basis of Presentation — Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted ” to the accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have historically met our capital needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and, when necessary, borrowings under our credit facilities. Our principal uses of capital include the costs and expenses associated with our operations, including financing working capital requirements and continuing our capital allocation strategy, which includes supporting capital expenditures, paying cash dividends, repurchasing the Company's common stock, and financing other investment opportunities from time to time.
On March 30, 2022, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for a 5-year revolving credit facility of $450.0 million, which includes a letter of credit sub-facility up to $50 million and for a 5-year term loan facility of $450.0 million. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had borrowings of $75.0 million under the revolving credit facility and $405.0 million under the term loan facility, and has $375.0 million available to borrow under the revolving credit facility.
As of March 31, 2024, our cash and cash equivalents consisted of deposits and money market funds held with established national financial institutions includes $91.7 million are held in the local currencies of our foreign operations and could be subject to additional taxation if repatriated to the U.S. The Company is maintaining a permanent reinvestment assertion on its foreign earnings relative to remaining cash held outside the United States.
The following table shows selected financial information as of March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively:

|  | As of March 31, |  | As of December 31, |  | As of March 31,

The following table presents the significant categories of cash flows was used or provided during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively:

|  | Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands) |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Net cash provided by (used in): |  |  |  |
Operating activities |  | $ | 7,938 |  |  | $ | 2,958 |
Investing activities |  | (39,371) |  |  | (27,043) |
Financing activities |  | (24,800) |  |  | (23,817) |

Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from our earnings before non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation, and are also affected by changes in operating assets and liabilities which consist primarily of working capital balances. Our revenues are derived from manufacturing and sales of building construction materials. Our operating cash flows are impacted by prevailing macro-economic conditions and subject to seasonality, which is cyclically associated with the volume and timing of construction project starts. For example, as a result of seasonality our trade accounts receivable are generally lowest at the end of the fourth quarter and increases during the first, second and third quarters as construction activity ramps in markets we serve.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, operating activities provided $7.9 million in cash, as a result of $75.4 million from net income plus $24.8 million non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation. This amount was partly offset by $92.3 million used for the net change in operating assets and liabilities. The net change in operating assets and liabilities included an increases of $61.3 million in trade accounts receivable, $12.8 million in other current assets, and $9.1 million in inventory.
Cash used in investing activities of $39.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, which was primarily used for facility expansion projects and machinery and equipment purchases. Due to updated forecasts on the timing of the spend and subject to future events and circumstances, capital expenditures are estimated to be approximately $185.0 million for 2024 (down from the previously forecasted $200.0 million) including the expected spend of $105.0 million on our previously announced Columbus, Ohio facility expansion and replacement of Gallatin, Tennessee facility, with some spend potentially carrying over to 2025. The remaining $80.0 million in capital expenditures will be primarily focused on purchases of new equipment to support increased productivity and efficiencies, enhancements to our existing facilities to expand our manufacturing footprint in-line with increasing customer needs, as well as investments for adjacencies and key growth initiatives.
Cash used in financing activities of $24.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 consisted primarily of $11.4 million used to pay dividends to our stockholders, $7.5 million used to pay income taxes on behalf of employees for shares withheld with respect to their vested restricted stock units and $7.1 million used for debt repayment.
On May 1, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.28 per share payable on July 25, 2024, to the Company's stockholders of record on July 4, 2024 (due to July 4 being a U.S. holiday, the effective record date is July 3, 2024).
From April 1, 2024 to May 2, 2024, the Company purchased 283,273 shares of the Company's common stock at an average price of $176.51 per share, for a total of $50.0 million.
Since the beginning of 2021 through May 2, 2024, we have returned $344.9 million to stockholders, and includes repurchasing over 1.7 million shares of the Company's common stock, which represents approximately 3.9% of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock at the start of 2021.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2024.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We have operations both within the United States and internationally, and are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business.
30

Foreign Exchange Risk
We have foreign exchange rate risk in our international operations, and through purchases from foreign vendors. Changes in the values of currencies of foreign countries affect our financial position, income statement and cash flows when translated into U.S. Dollars. We estimate that if the exchange rate were to change by 10% in any one country where we have our operations, the change in net income would not be material to our operations taken as a whole.
We may manage our exposure to transactional exposures by entering into foreign currency forward contracts for forecasted transactions and projected cash flows for foreign currencies in future periods. In 2021, 2022 and 2023, we entered into financial contracts at various times to hedge the risk of fluctuations associated with the Euro and the Chinese Yuan during 2023.
Interest Rate Risk
Our primary exposure to interest rate risk results from outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which bears interest at variable rates. As of March 31, 2024, the outstanding debt under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement subject to interest rate fluctuations was $480.0 million. The variable interest rates on the Credit Agreement fluctuate and expose us to short-term changes in market interest rates as our interest obligation on this instrument is based on prevailing market interest rates. Interest rates fluctuate as a result of many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors that are beyond our control.
We have entered into an interest rate swap agreement to convert the variable interest rate on the balances outstanding under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to fixed interest rates. The objective of the interest rate swap agreement is to eliminate the variability of the interest payment cash flows associated with the variable interest rate outstanding under the borrowings. We designated the interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. Refer to Note 7, "Derivatives and Hedging Instruments", for further information on our interest rate swap contracts in effect as of March 31, 2024.
Commodity Price Risk
In the normal course of business, we are exposed to market risk related to our purchase of steel, a significant raw material upon which our manufacturing depends. Steel cost started to stabilize by the end of 2023 and continue to be stable through the first quarter of 2024. While steel is typically available from numerous suppliers, the price of steel is a commodity subject to fluctuations that apply across broad spectrums of the steel market. We do not use any derivative or hedging instruments to manage steel price risk. If the price of steel increases, our variable costs would also increase. While historically we have successfully mitigated these increased costs through the implementation of price increases, in the future we may not be able to successfully mitigate these costs, which could cause our operating margins to decline.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of March 31, 2024, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the chief executive officer the (“CEO”) and the chief financial officer (the “CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e) under the Exchange Act of 1934. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures designed reasonably to assure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed reasonably to assure that this information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and the CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The Company’s management, including the CEO and the CFO, does not, however, expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will prevent all fraud and material errors. Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, the design of a control system must reflect the facts that there are resource constraints and that the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. The inherent limitations in internal control over financial reporting include the realities that judgments can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls also can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of controls. The design of any system of internal control is also based in part on assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be only reasonable, not absolute assurance that any design
31

will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential events and conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in circumstances, or the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management's evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the three months ended March 31, 2024, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and other matters arising in the normal course of business. Corrosion, hydrogen embrittlement, cracking, material hardness, wood pressure-treating chemicals, misinstallations, misuse, design and assembly flaws, manufacturing defects, labeling defects, product formula defects, inaccurate chemical mixes, adulteration, environmental conditions, or other factors can contribute to failure of fasteners, connectors, anchors, adhesives, specialty chemicals, such as fiber reinforced polymers, and tool products. In addition, inaccuracies may occur in product information, descriptions and instructions found in catalogs, packaging, data sheets, and the Company’s website.
The Company currently is not a party to any legal proceedings which the Company expects individually or in the aggregate to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows or results of operations. Nonetheless, the resolution of any claim or litigation is subject to inherent uncertainty and we could in the future incur judgments, enter into settlements of claims or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of the various legal proceedings and other matters we are currently involved in, which could materially impact our financial condition, cash flows or results of operations. Refer to Note 12, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent developments related to certain of the legal proceedings in which we are involved.
