The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by sales channel. Warehouse sales are delivered from the Company’s warehouses. Reload sales are similar to warehouse sales but are shipped from non-warehouse locations, most of which are operated by third parties, where the Company stores owned products to enhance operating efficiencies. The reload channel is employed primarily to service strategic customers that are less economical to service from Company warehouses, and to distribute large volumes of imported products from port facilities. Direct sales are shipped from the manufacturer to the customer and therefore the Company does not take physical possession of the inventory and, as a result, typically generate lower margins than the warehouse and reload distribution channels. The direct distribution channel requires the lowest amount of committed capital and fixed costs.

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would typically be one year or less. These expenses are recorded within SG&A expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

The Company has made an accounting policy election to treat outbound shipping and handling activities as an SG&A expense. Shipping and handling expenses include amounts related to the administration of the Company’s logistical infrastructure, handling of material in its warehouses, and amounts pertaining to the delivery of products to customers, such as fuel and maintenance expenses for mobile fleet, wages for drivers, and third-party freight charges. These expenses were $41.1 million and $39.2 million for the three fiscal months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively, and $121.9 million and $115.0 million for the nine fiscal months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively.

Performance obligations in contracts with customers generally consist solely of the delivery of goods.
