Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited; In thousands, except share and per share data or otherwise indicated)

Basis of Presentation

Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (the “Company”) prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information have been condensed or omitted. The balance sheet as of March 31, 2015 has been presented for a better understanding of the impact of seasonal fluctuations on the Company's financial condition.

In management's opinion, the financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's financial position and operating results. The results for the three and six-month periods ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the twelve months ending September 30, 2016 (fiscal year 2016 or “2016”).

The three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 had 64 and 63 business days, respectively, and the six-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015 had 126 and 125 business days, respectively.

These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in the Company’s fiscal year 2015 (“2015”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2015, as amended by the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 25, 2016.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-3, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. This guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the associated debt liability, consistent with the required presentation for debt discounts. This update is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within those fiscal years and early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, an entity must apply the new guidance retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company elected to early adopt this new guidance effective October 1, 2015. The adoption of this standard changed the Company’s previous practice of presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and resulted in the reduction of total assets and total liabilities in an amount equal to the balance of unamortized debt issuance costs at each balance sheet date presented. Debt issuance costs that are now presented as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the associated debt liability amounted to $28.7 million at March 31, 2016, $4.2 million at September 30, 2015, and $1.8 million at March 31, 2015.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments”. This new guidance eliminates the requirement to restate prior period financial statements for measurement period adjustments related to business combinations. It requires that the cumulative impact of a measurement period adjustment, including the impact on prior periods, be recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustment is identified. In addition, the portion of the adjustment recorded in the current period that would have been recognized in prior periods had the adjustment been identified at that time must be presented, by line item, either on the face of the income statement or in the accompanying notes. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The Company elected to early adopt this new guidance effective January 1, 2016 and the financial impact through the six months ended March 31, 2016 was immaterial.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes." This guidance requires entities to present deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early adoption is permitted. Entities are permitted to apply this guidance either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company adopted the guidance as of March 31, 2016 and applied it retrospectively to all prior periods. As a result the company reclassified its current deferred tax balances of $2.3 million, and $14.8 million, to non-current deferred taxes as of September 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases”. The ASU will replace most existing accounting for lease guidance when it becomes effective. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning on October 1, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The standard must be adopted using the modified retrospective approach. The standard will require the Company to record a right to use asset and a lease liability for most of the Company’s leases including the Company’s leases currently treated as operating leases. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this guidance may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation—Stock Compensation, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This guidance introduces multiple amendments to the previous standard, including the option to make a policy election to eliminate the usage of an estimated forfeiture rate to the recognition of stock-based compensation, the requirement of all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, and a modification to the amount of shares an employer can withhold for tax purposes without triggering liability accounting. The amended standard is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. When adopted, all the guidance must be adopted in the same period and the Company will be required to make the disclosures about a change in accounting principle, but will not have to quantify the income statement effect of the change in the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this guidance may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Acquisitions

Roofing Supply Group

On October 1, 2015 (“Acquisition Date”), the Company acquired 100% of the equity of Roofing Supply Group, LLC ("RSG" or “RSG Acquisition”), a leading roofing products distributor owned by investment firm Clayton, Dubilier & Rice ("CD&R"). RSG’s results of operations have been included with Company’s consolidated results beginning October 1, 2015. RSG distributes roofing supplies and related materials from 85 locations across 25 states as of the date of the close.

Total consideration paid for RSG was approximately $1.2 billion, out of which $288 million was in cash, $307 million of Company’s common stock and option replacement awards, and $574 million in refinancing of RSG’s indebtedness. The RSG long-term debt was repaid simultaneously with the proceeds of a new ABL Revolver, Term Loan B and Senior Notes (see Note 7).

In connection with the RSG Acquisition, the Company was required to issue equity awards to certain RSG employees in replacement of RSG equity awards that were cancelled at closing. The replacement awards consisted of 661,349 shares of the Company’s common stock options with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $20.90. The terms and fair value of these awards approximated the cancelled RSG awards on the issuance date. The fair value of the replacement awards associated with services rendered through the date of the RSG Acquisition was recognized as a component of the total acquisition consideration, and the remaining fair value of the replaced awards associated with post RSG Acquisition services will be recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining vesting period.

The RSG Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the requirements of ASC 805 Business Combinations. The purchase price has been allocated among assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value based on information currently available, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expected synergies and the assembled workforce of RSG. These come from the synergies that are obtained in operating the branches as part of a larger network, and from an experienced employee base skilled at managing a distribution business. The Company’s allocation of the purchase price is subject to change on receipt of additional information, including, but not limited to, the finalization of intangible asset valuations, property, plant, and equipment valuations, and the Company’s continued review of assumed liabilities that may result in the changes in the carrying amounts on the opening balance sheet and an adjustment to goodwill. An additional area where preliminary estimates are not yet finalized relates to deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company has recorded purchase accounting entries on a preliminary basis for the RSG Acquisition as follows (in thousands):

Cash	$	16,451
Accounts receivable		177,251
Inventory		179,651
Other current assets		50,705
Property, plant, and equipment		55,159
Other intangible assets		382,600
Other assets		-
Goodwill		617,634
Current liabilities		(248,083	)
Non-current liabilities		(61,918	)
Total purchase price	$	1,169,450

RSG’s future growth attributable to new customers, geographic market presence and assembled workforce are additional assets that are not separable and which contributed to recorded goodwill, of which $84 million is tax deductible. All of the Company’s goodwill plus the indefinite-lived trade name are tested for impairment annually, and all acquired goodwill and intangible assets are subject to review for impairment if indicators of impairment develop in the future. The fair value of accounts receivables acquired is $177.3 million, with the gross contractual amount being $186 million. The Company expects $9 million to be uncollectible and there were no material contingencies assumed as part of this acquisition.

The actual revenue and net loss from the RSG Acquisition included in the Company’s statements of operations was $304.3 million and $(7.9) million, respectively, for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, and was $644.2 million and $(29.2) million, respectively, for the six month period ended March 31, 2016. The following table represents the unaudited pro forma consolidated revenue and net loss for the Company for the prior periods indicated (in thousands, except per share amount):

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2015			Six Months Ended March 31, 2015

Revenue	$	652,805		$	1,529,758
Net loss		(40,652	)		(52,560	)

Net loss per share		(0.68	)		(0.88	)

The above pro forma results have been calculated by combining the historical results of the Company and RSG as if it had occurred on October 1, 2014, and adjusting the income tax provision as if it had been calculated on the resulting, combined results. The pro forma results include an estimate for all periods for intangible asset amortization (which is subject to change when the final asset values have been determined), stock compensation expense, interest expense, and also reflect the following 2016 expenses in fiscal 2015 instead of in 2016: $41.9 million of direct acquisition costs. No other material pro forma adjustments were deemed necessary to conform the 2015 acquisitions to Company’s accounting policies. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been achieved had the

transactions occurred on October 1, 2014 or that may be achieved in the future.

Other Acquisitions

During the six months ended March 31, 2016, the Company acquired 26 branches from the following three additional acquisitions:

	·	On December 1, 2015, the Company purchased certain assets of RCI Roofing Supply (“RCI”), a distributor of residential and commercial roofing and related products with five branches across Nebraska, Iowa and Colorado with annual sales of approximately $23 million.

	·	On December 18, 2015, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests of Roofing and Insulation Supply (“RIS”), a distributor primarily of residential and commercial insulation along with roofing and related products with 20 branches spanning 13 states across New England, the Mid-Atlantic, the Southeast, the Upper Midwest, Texas and Colorado with annual sales of approximately $70 million.

	·	On December 29, 2015, the Company purchased certain assets of Statewide Wholesale (“Statewide”), a distributor of residential and commercial roofing and related products located in Denver, Colorado with annual sales of approximately $15 million.

The Company recorded the preliminary acquired assets and liabilities at their estimated fair values at the acquisition date, with resulting goodwill of $47.6 million (which is deductible for tax purposes) and $33.3 million in intangible assets associated with these other acquisitions. The Company’s allocation of the purchase price is subject to change on receipt of additional information, including, but not limited to, the finalization of intangible asset valuations and property, plant, and equipment valuations.

The Company has not provided pro forma results of operations for any acquisitions besides RSG completed in fiscal years 2016 or 2015 herein as they were not material to the Company on either an individual or an aggregate basis. The Company included the results of operations of each acquisition in its consolidated statement of income from the date of each acquisition.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding using the treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock awards.

The following table presents the basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for each period presented:

	Three Months Ended March 31,				Six Months Ended March 31,
	2016		2015		2016		2015

Weighted-average common shares outstanding, basic		59,295,990		49,513,141		59,133,569		49,470,528
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options		-		-		696,112		469,698
Restricted stock units		-		-		248,171		89,709
Weighted-average common shares outstanding, diluted		59,295,990		49,513,141		60,077,852		50,029,935

The following table includes the number of shares that may be dilutive common shares in the future. These shares were not included in the computation of diluted net income per share because the effect was either anti-dilutive or the requisite performance conditions were not met.

	Three Months Ended March 31,				Six Months Ended March 31,
	2016		2015		2016		2015
Stock options		665,281		1,838,400		667,251		1,370,873

Stock-Based Compensation

On February 9, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved the Amended and Restated Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. 2014 Stock Plan (the “2014 Plan”). The 2014 Plan provides for discretionary awards of stock options, stock awards, restricted stock units, and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) for up to 5,000,000 shares of common stock to selected employees and non-employee directors. The 2014 Plan mandates that all forfeited, expired, and withheld shares, including those from the predecessor plans, be returned to the 2014 Plan and made available for issuance. As of March 31, 2016, there were 4,998,442 shares of common stock available for issuance.

Prior to the 2014 Plan, the Company maintained the amended and restated Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. 2004 Stock Plan (the “2004 Plan”). Upon shareholder approval of the 2014 Plan, the Company ceased issuing equity awards from the pre-existing 2004 Plan and all future equity awards will be issued from the 2014 Plan.

The Company recognizes the cost of employee services rendered in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the fair value of those awards at the date of the grant. Compensation expense for time-based equity awards is recognized, on a straight-line basis, net of forfeitures, over the requisite service period for the fair value of the awards that actually vest. Compensation expense for performance-based equity awards is recognized, net of forfeitures, by projecting the number of restricted units that are expected to vest based on the achievement of the underlying related performance measures.

For all equity awards granted prior to October 1, 2014, in the event of a change in control of the Company, all awards are immediately vested. Beginning in fiscal 2015, equity awards contain a “double trigger” change in control mechanism. Unless an award is continued or assumed by a public company in an equitable manner, an award shall become fully vested immediately prior to a change in control (at 100% in the case of a performance-based restricted stock award). If an award is so continued or assumed, vesting will continue in accordance with the terms of the award, unless there is a qualifying termination within one-year following the change in control, in which event the award shall become fully vested immediately (at 100% in the case of a performance-based restricted stock award).

Stock options

Non-qualified options generally expire 10 years after the grant date and, except under certain conditions, the options are subject to continued employment and vest in one-third increments over a three-year period following the grant dates. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to stock option awards of $1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively. During the six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to stock option awards of $7.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2016, there was $9.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years.

The following table illustrates the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model for options granted (inclusive of replacement options discussed in Note 2) during the six months ended March 31, 2016:

Risk-free interest rate	1.56 - 1.87	%
Expected volatility	30.96 - 36.40	%
Expected life (in years)	5.57 - 5.60
Expected dividend yield	0.00	%

Expected lives of the options granted are based primarily on historical activity, while expected volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Company’s stock and consideration of public companies’ stock.

Information regarding the Company’s stock options activity is summarized below (in thousands, except time period and per share amounts):

________________________

¹ Aggregate intrinsic value as of September 30, 2015 represents the difference between the closing fair value of the underlying common stock on September 30, 2015 and the exercise price of outstanding, in-the-money options. Aggregate intrinsic value as of March 31, 2016 represents the difference between the closing fair value of the underlying common stock on March 31, 2016 and the exercise price of outstanding, in-the-money options.

Restricted Stock Units

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units of $1.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively. During the six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units of $3.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2016, there was $13.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock units. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.

The total fair values of the restricted stock units were determined based upon the number of shares or units and the closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the dates of the grants. The restricted stock units granted to management are subject to continued employment, except under certain conditions, and will vest if the Company attains a targeted rate of return on invested capital at the end of a three-year period. The actual number of shares or units that will vest can range from 0% to 125% of the management grants depending upon actual Company performance below or above the target level and the Company estimates that performance in determining the projected number of shares or units that will vest and the related compensation cost. The restricted stock units granted to non-employee directors are also subject to continued service, vest at the end of one year (except under certain conditions) and the underlying common shares will not be distributed until the date of the director’s termination of service on the Board, except that, beginning in fiscal year 2016, directors holding units with a value equal to five times the annual cash retainer may elect to have future grants settle simultaneously with vesting. Grants made prior to fiscal 2014 settle on a date that is six months after the director’s termination of service on the board. In November 2013 and 2014, the Company issued restricted stock units that are subject to continued employment and will vest over three to five years. In May 2015, the Company issued restricted stock awards that are subject to continued employment and will vest after two years.

Information regarding the Company’s restricted stock unit activity is summarized below (in thousands, except per share amounts):

As a result of the RSG Acquisition, on October 1, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement governing the terms of a new $450.0 million seven-year senior secured term loan ‘‘B’’ facility (the “Term Loan B Facility”) and a new credit agreement governing the terms of a new senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $700.0 million, subject to a borrowing base (the “ABL Facility”) (collectively the “New Senior Credit Facilities”). The Company also raised $300.0 million by issuing 8 year senior notes due 2023 (the “Senior Notes”), having a coupon rate of 6.38% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears.

Revolving Line of Credit Facilities

On October 1, 2015, the Company entered into a $700 million ABL Facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and a syndicate of other lenders. This ABL Facility consists of revolving loans in both the United States (“US Revolver”) in the amount of $670 million and Canada (“Canada Revolver”) in the amount of $30 million CAD. The ABL Facility has a maturity date of October 1, 2020. The US Revolver has various tranches of borrowings, bearing interest at rates ranging from 2.12% to 4.00%. The effective rate of these borrowings is 2.13% and is paid monthly. As of March 31, 2016, the outstanding balance on the US Revolver, net of debt issuance fees, was $295.7 million. The US Revolver also has outstanding standby letters of credit in the amount of $10.3 million as of March 31, 2016. Current unused commitment fees on the revolving credit facilities are 0.25% per annum. There is one financial covenant under the ABL Facility, which is a Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio. As defined in the ABL Facility, the Company’s ratio must be at least 1.00 to 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter, calculated on a trailing four quarter basis. The covenant is only applicable when the borrowing availability is less than 10% of the maximum loan cap or $60 million. The ABL Revolver is guaranteed jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally by all of the United States subsidiaries of the Company but not by the Canadian subsidiaries of the Company.

Term Loan

On October 1, 2015, the Company entered into a $450.0 million Term Loan B Facility with Citibank N.A., and a syndicate of other lenders. The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments in the amount of $1.1 million, with the remaining outstanding principal to be paid on its maturity date of October 1, 2022. Outstanding principal on the Term Loan bears interest at 4.00% and is paid every six months. The Company has the option of selecting the rate at which interest can accrue on the Term Loan as well as the period in which interest payments are made.

The Company elected to pay interest based on the six month LIBOR rate, subject to a minimum rate of 1.00%, in addition to a base rate of 3.00%. As of March 31, 2016, the outstanding balance on the Term Loan, net of debt issuance fees, was $436.6 million. The Term Loan B is guaranteed jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally by all of the United States subsidiaries of the Company but not by the Canadian subsidiaries of the Company.

Senior Notes

The Company also raised $300.0 million by issuing 8 year senior notes due 2023 (the “Senior Notes”), having a coupon rate of 6.38% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears beginning April 1, 2016. There are early payment provisions in the Senior Note indenture in which the Company would be subject to “make whole” provisions. Management anticipates repaying the notes at the maturity date of October 1, 2023. As of March 31, 2016 the outstanding balance on the Senior Notes, net of debt issuance fees, was $290.4 million. The Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally by all of the United States subsidiaries of the Company but not by the Canadian subsidiaries of the Company.

The proceeds from the New Senior Secured Credit Facilities and Senior Notes were used to provide working capital and funds for other general corporate purposes, to refinance or otherwise extinguish all third-party indebtedness for borrowed money under Company’s and RSG’s existing senior secured credit facilities and RSG’s unsecured senior notes due 2020, to finance the acquisition, and to pay fees and expenses associated with the RSG Acquisition. The Company incurred financing costs totaling approximately $31.3 million.

Since the New Senior Credit Facilities and the previous Term Loan financing arrangements had certain lenders who participated in both arrangements, management accounted for a portion of this transaction as a debt modification and a portion as a debt extinguishment. In accordance with the accounting for debt modification, the Company will amortize the previously capitalized issuance costs over the term of the New Senior Credit Facilities and expense the $2.2 million of direct issuance costs incurred related to the New Senior Credit Facilities. The remainder of the settlement of the Company’s previous debt arrangements was accounted for as debt extinguishment, for which the Company recognized a loss of $0.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2016.

The Senior Notes which are unsecured obligations of the Company are guaranteed jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally, on an unsecured senior basis, by each of the domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower under or that guarantees obligations under Term Loan B Facility (and any refinancing indebtedness). The Canadian subsidiaries have guaranteed the borrowings under the ABL Facility, but have not guaranteed the Senior Notes or borrowings under the Term Loan B Facility.

Annual principal payments for all outstanding borrowings for each of the next five years and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

	Term Loan B Facility			ABL Facility		Senior Notes		Equipment Financing Facilities			Total

Financial Instruments

The Company used interest rate derivative instruments to manage the risk related to fluctuating cash flows from interest rate changes by converting a portion of its variable-rate borrowings into fixed-rate borrowings. On March 28, 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $213.8 million which was scheduled to expire on March 31, 2017. This agreement swapped the thirty-day LIBOR to a fixed-rate of 1.38%. The instrument had scheduled reductions of the notional amount equal to $2.8 million per quarter, effectively matching the repayment schedule under the Term Loan. In October 2015, the Company settled its interest rate swap agreement resulting in a cash payment by the Company of $2.3 million. The pre-tax unrealized loss within accumulated other comprehensive income associated with the cancelled interest rate swap contract of $2.3 million is being amortized over the original life of the swap contract, through March 2017.

Leases

The Company mostly operates in leased facilities, which are accounted for as operating leases. The leases typically provide for a base rent plus real estate taxes. Certain of the leases provide for escalating rents over the lives of the leases and rent expense is recognized over the terms of those leases on a straight-line basis.

As of March 31, 2016, the minimum rental commitments for non-cancelable operating leases with initial or remaining terms of more than one year were as follows:

Year ending March 31,	Operating Leases

2016 (Apr-Sept)	$	28,075
2017		44,663
2018		32,643
2019		25,137
2020		16,798
Thereafter		29,985
Total minimum lease payments	$	177,301

Rent expense for the three and six month periods ending March 31, 2016 was $14.6 million and $30.6 million, respectively. Sublet income for the three and six month periods ending March 31, 2016 was immaterial.

10.

Foreign Net Revenue

Foreign (Canadian) net revenue was $19.9 million and $20.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $65.0 million and $66.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

11.

Fair Value

As of March 31, 2016, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company measures its cash equivalents at amortized cost, which approximates fair value based upon quoted market prices (Level 1). Based upon recent trading prices (Level 2 — market approach) as of March 31, 2016 the fair value of the Company’s $300.0 million senior unsecured notes was $318.4 million. As of March 31, 2016, the fair value of the Company’s New Senior Credit Facilities approximated the amount outstanding. The Company estimates the fair value of its New Senior Credit Facilities by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument using estimated market rates of debt instruments with similar maturities and credit profiles (Level 3).

12.

Supplemental Guarantor Information

All of the Senior Notes issued on October 1, 2015 are guaranteed jointly and severally by all of the United States subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the “Guarantors”), and not by the Canadian subsidiaries of the Company. Such guarantees are full and unconditional. Supplemental condensed consolidating financial information of the Company, including such information for the Guarantors, is presented below. The information is presented in accordance with the requirements of Rule 3-10 under the SEC’s Regulation S-X. The financial information may not necessarily be indicative of results of operations, cash flows or financial position had the non-guarantor subsidiaries operated as independent entities. Investments in subsidiaries are presented using the equity method of accounting. The principal elimination entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions. Separate financial statements of the Guarantors are not provided as the consolidating financial information contained herein provides a more meaningful disclosure to allow investors to determine the nature of the assets held by, and the operations of, the combined groups.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this document. All references to “2016” refer to the respective three and six month periods ended March 31, 2016 being discussed and all references to “2015” refer to the respective three and six month periods ended March 31, 2015 being discussed. We do not undertake, and specifically disclaim, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of events or circumstances after the date of such statements except as required by law.

Overview

We are the second largest (and largest publicly traded) distributor of residential and non-residential roofing materials in the United States and Canada. We also distribute other complementary building products, including siding, windows, specialty exterior building products, insulation, and waterproofing systems for residential and non-residential building exteriors. We are among the oldest and most established distributors in the industry. We purchase products from a large number of manufacturers and then distribute these goods to a customer base consisting of contractors and, to a lesser extent, general contractors, retailers, and building materials suppliers.

On October 1, 2015, we completed our acquisition of Roofing Supply Group ("RSG"), a leading roofing products distributor, in a cash and stock transaction valued at approximately $1.2 billion. Completion of the RSG acquisition strengthens our position as the largest publicly traded roofing materials and related products distributor in the U.S., with approximately $3.6 billion in combined pro forma revenues.

In addition to the RSG Acquisition, we have continued to focus on this element of our growth through three additional acquisitions in December 2015 (RCI, RIS, and Statewide). These recent strategic acquisitions have significantly enhanced our geographic footprint, and we currently operate in 365 locations in 45 states, as well as Canada, with an enhanced presence in the Southern and Western United States and the Pacific Northwest.

We stock one of the most extensive assortments of high-quality, branded products in the industry with approximately 11,000 SKUs available in inventory, enabling us to deliver a wide range of products to our customers on a timely basis. In fiscal year 2015, approximately 93% of our net sales were in the United States.

Executing both the strategic and tactical operating plan at each of our branches drives our financial results. Effective execution of both the sales and operating plans allows us to grow beyond the relative strength of the residential and non-residential roofing markets we serve. Our business model is a bottom-up approach, where we allow each of our branches to participate in the development of their own marketing plan and product mix as they know and understand their respective markets. Local alignment with overall strategic goals provides the foundation for significant ownership of results at the branch level.

Our distinctive operational model combined with significant branch level ownership differentiates us from the competition. We provide customer services, including job site delivery, custom designed tapered roofing systems, metal fabrication, and trade credit. We consider customer relations and our employees' knowledge of roofing and exterior building materials to be very important to our ability to increase customer loyalty and maintain customer satisfaction. Our customers’ business success can be enhanced when they are supported by our efficient and effective distribution network. We invest significant resources in professional development and training our employees in sales techniques, management skills, product knowledge and operational proficiency. We pride ourselves on providing these capabilities developed on a foundation of continuous improvement driving service excellence, productivity and efficiencies.

Our growth strategy includes both organic growth (opening branches, growing sales with existing customers, adding new customers and introducing new products) and acquisition growth. Our main acquisition strategy is to target market leaders in geographic areas that we do not service or that complement our existing operations in an area. The following transactions highlight our recent success delivering on our growth strategy:

The RSG Acquisition provides us the opportunity to create an even stronger roofing distribution company built upon the foundation of two strong, growing distribution platforms with an extensive national footprint and continued growth potential. On the date of the acquisition, RSG operated 85 branches across 25 states, with 300 to 2,200 SKUs per branch. This allows us to:

	-	Expand product offering and increase cross selling opportunities.
	-	Continue to provide exceptional customer service and roofing expertise.
	-	Selectively pursue opportunities for organic growth and strategic acquisitions.
	-	Enhance margins and free cash flow generation through continued execution of our growth strategy.

We have continued to focus on organic greenfield growth with the opening of 1 new branch in fiscal 2016, 6 new branches in fiscal 2015, 26 new branches in fiscal 2014, and 10 new branches in fiscal 2013. These 43 new branch locations in the past three years have allowed us to strategically penetrate deeper into many of our existing markets and enter into new markets. In addition, RSG opened 9 new branches in fiscal 2015, 9 new branches in fiscal 2014, and 8 new branches in fiscal 2013. Although these new greenfield locations impact our operating cost structure in the near-term, we believe that our greenfields are strategically located within markets with strong dynamics and opportunity to quickly establish our presence and gain local market share.

________________________

Operating expenses and interest expense for 2016 include charges of $6.7 million ($4.0 million, net of taxes) for the recognition of certain transactional costs related to the RSG acquisition, which is 0.8% of sales (0.5%, net of taxes), and amortization for acquired intangibles of $5.7 million ($3.4 million, net of taxes), which is 0.7% of sales (0.4% net of taxes). Management believes the Adjusted Net Income for 2016 provides a meaningful comparison to prior periods of operating results to adjust for the impact of the RSG Acquisition.

In managing our business, we consider all growth, including the opening of new branches, to be organic growth unless it results from an acquisition. When we refer to growth in existing markets or organic growth, we include growth from existing and newly opened branches but exclude growth from acquired branches until they have been under our ownership for at least four full fiscal quarters at the start of the fiscal reporting period. When we refer to regions, we are referring to our geographic regions.

As of March 31, 2016, we had a total of 357 branches in operation. Our existing market calculations include 244 branches and exclude 113 branches because they were acquired after the start of 2015. Acquired markets for 2016 include activity from branches acquired under the ProCoat Systems, Roofing Supply Group, RCI Roofing Supply, Roofing & Insulation Supply, and Statewide Wholesale acquisitions (See Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). When we refer to our net product costs, we are referring to our invoice cost less the impact of short-term buying programs (also referred to as “special buys” given the manner in which they are offered).

The following table presents a summary of our results of operations for the periods presented, broken down by existing markets and acquired markets:

	Existing Markets						Acquired Markets						Consolidated

________________________

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we recorded amortization expense for our acquired markets related to intangible assets recorded under purchase accounting of $13.7 million and $0.2 million, respectively. In addition, operating expenses also included non-recurring charges of $5.5 million ($3.3 million, net of taxes) for the recognition of certain charges related to the RSG acquisition.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales increased $410.4 million, or 99.3%, to $823.5 million in 2016 from $413.2 million in 2015. Existing market sales increased $107.1 million, or 27.7% over the same comparative periods. We believe our 2016 existing market sales were influenced primarily by the following factors:

·	Increased demand in our residential, non-residential, and complementary products groups;

·	milder winter weather in 2016 allowed for an increase in roofing activities

·	42 new Beacon greenfield branches that opened in fiscal years 2013, 2014 and 2015;

partially offset by:

·	lower residential and non-residential roofing average selling prices.

Net sales within our acquired markets were $330.1 million in 2016, a significant increase from 2015 due to the sales impact from the acquisitions completed during 2016. In 2016, we acquired 111 branches and closed 25 branches, primarily as a result of facility consolidations due to the acquisitions.

We estimate the impact of inflation or deflation on our sales and gross profit by looking at changes in our average selling prices and gross margins (discussed below). Average overall selling prices in existing markets declined 2-3% in 2016 compared to 2015, driven primarily by declines in residential and non-residential selling prices which were both down approximately 2-3% year-over-year. These declines were partially offset by continued increases in the average selling prices of complementary products which increased approximately 1% year-over-year. During the same period, net product costs for complementary products decreased less than 1%, while residential and non-residential net product costs decreased approximately 1-2% and 2-3%, respectively, year-over-year. During 2016, we experienced an overall increase in the gross margins over the prior year due to a shift in sales mix to higher-margin residential products. This more than offset a decline in our average selling prices, which were less than the reduction in net product costs.

Existing markets net sales by geographical region increased (decreased) from 2015 to 2016 as follows: Northeast 52.4%; Mid-Atlantic 32.0%; Southeast 47.2%; Southwest 30.4%; Midwest 11.1%; West 5.1%; and Canada (3.0%). These variations were primarily caused by short-term factors such as local market conditions, weather conditions and storm activity.

Product group sales for our existing markets were as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2016					2015					Change
	Net Sales		%			Net Sales		%			$		%
	(Dollars in thousands)

Residential roofing products	$	253,613		51.4	%	$	192,991		50.0	%	$	60,622		31.4	%
Non-residential roofing products		155,305		31.5	%		123,817		32.0	%		31,488		25.4	%
Complementary building products		84,514		17.1	%		69,529		18.0	%		14,985		21.6	%
Total existing market sales	$	493,432		100.0	%	$	386,337		100.0	%	$	107,095		27.7	%

For 2016, our acquired markets recognized sales of $182.4 million, $114.0 million and $33.7 million in residential roofing products, non-residential roofing products and complementary building products, respectively. The combination of our 2016 existing market sales of $493.4 million plus the sales from acquired markets of $330.1 million equals our total 2016 sales of $823.5 million. We believe the existing market information is useful to investors because it helps explain organic growth or decline.

Gross Profit

________________________

¹ Percentage changes for dollar amounts represents the ratable increase or decrease from period-to-period. Percentage changes for percentages represent the net period-to-period change in basis points

Our existing market gross profit increased $28.9 million, or 31.7% in 2016, and gross profit within our acquired markets was $75.8 million for the same period. Our overall gross margins improved to 23.8% in 2016, due to a favorable shift in sales mix to residential products. Gross margins within our existing markets for 2016 increased to 24.3%.

Direct sales (products shipped by our vendors directly to our customers), which typically have substantially lower gross margins (and operating expenses) compared to our warehouse sales, represented 18.0% and 18.4% of our net sales in 2016 and 2015, respectively. We believe variations in direct sales activity to be primarily caused by short-term factors such as local market conditions, weather conditions and storm activity. None of these variations were driven by material regional impacts from changes in the direct sales mix of our geographical regions.

Operating Expense

Operating expense for consolidated and existing markets were as follows:

________________________

Operating expense in our existing market increased by $5.4 million, or 5.2% in 2016, to $109.5 million, as compared to $104.1 million in 2015, while operating expense within our acquired markets was $82.4 million in 2016. The following factors were the leading causes of the increased operating expense in our existing markets:

·	An increase in payroll, employee benefits costs, and stock compensation expense of $8.0 million due to an increase in variable incentive and volume-related compensation

·	an increase in depreciation and amortization of $0.5 million; and

·	6 new greenfield locations opened during fiscal 2015 that drove incremental operating expense of $0.5 million over the prior year

partially offset by:

·	a decrease in the allowance for uncollectible accounts of $1.7 million; and

·	a decrease in general and administrative, selling, warehouse and other expenses of $1.9 million

During 2016 and 2015, we recorded $3.4 million and $3.4 million, respectively, of expense within our existing markets related to the amortization of intangible assets recorded under purchase accounting. Our existing markets operating expense as a percentage of the related net sales in 2016 was 22.2%, compared to 26.9% in 2015.

Interest Expense, Financing Costs and Other

Interest expense, financing costs and other expense was $11.8 million in 2016, as compared to $2.5 million in 2015. The primary driver of the increase is the additional interest expense incurred on the increase in debt outstanding over the comparative periods.

In 2016, the Company expensed $2.2 million of direct issuance costs incurred related to the New Senior Credit Facilities. The remainder of the settlement of the Company’s previous debt arrangements was accounted for as a debt extinguishment, for which the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of $0.8 million. The Company incurred $31.3 million in financing fees related to the Term Loan B, ABL Revolver Facility, and Senior Notes in 2016, which will be recognized through 2022.

Income Taxes

There was an income tax benefit of $3.4 million in 2016, as compared to $6.9 million benefit in 2015. The decrease was primarily due to the $7.6 million difference in pre-tax net loss for the comparative periods.

Operating expenses and interest expense for 2016 include charges of $30.5 million ($18.2 million, net of taxes) for the recognition of certain transactional costs related to the RSG acquisition, which is 1.7% of sales (1.0%, net of taxes), and amortization for acquired intangibles of $11.4 million ($6.8 million, net of taxes), which is 0.6% of sales (0.4% net of taxes). Management believes the Adjusted Net Income for 2016 provides a meaningful comparison to prior periods of operating results to adjust for the impact of the RSG Acquisition.

As of March 31, 2016, we had a total of 357 branches in operation. Our existing market calculations include 243 branches and exclude 114 branches because they were acquired after the start of last year. Acquired markets for 2016 include activity from branches acquired under the Wholesale Roofing Supply, ProCoat Systems, Roofing Supply Group, RCI Roofing Supply, Roofing & Insulation Supply, and Statewide Wholesale acquisitions (See Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). When we refer to our net product costs, we are referring to our invoice cost less the impact of short-term buying programs (also referred to as “special buys” given the manner in which they are offered).

During the six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we recorded amortization expense for our acquired markets related to intangible assets recorded under purchase accounting of $26.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively. In addition, operating expenses also included non-recurring charges of $25.5 million ($15.2 million, net of taxes) for the recognition of certain charges related to the RSG acquisition.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales increased $790.8 million, or 78.4%, to $1.8 billion in 2016 from $1.0 billion in 2015. Existing market sales increased $171.1 million, or 18.3% over the same comparative periods. We believe our 2016 existing market sales were influenced primarily by the following factors:

·	Increased demand in our residential, non-residential, and complementary products groups;

·	milder winter weather towards the end of the first quarter 2016 and the second quarter 2016; and

·	42 new Beacon greenfield branches opened in fiscal year 2013, 2014 and 2015;

partially offset by:

·	lower residential and non-residential roofing average selling prices.

Net sales within our acquired markets were $691.6 million in 2016, a significant increase from 2015 due to the sales impact from the acquisitions completed during 2016. In 2016, we acquired 111 branches and closed 25 branches, primarily as a result of facility consolidations due to the acquisitions.

We estimate the impact of inflation or deflation on our sales and gross profit by looking at changes in our average selling prices and gross margins (discussed below). Average overall selling prices in existing markets declined 1-2% in 2016 compared to 2015, driven primarily by declines in residential and non-residential selling prices which were both down approximately 2-3% year-over-year. These declines were partially offset by continued increases in the average selling prices of complementary products which increased approximately 1% year-over-year. During the same period, net product costs for complementary products remained relatively flat, while residential and non-residential net product costs each decreased approximately 2-3%, year-over-year. During 2016, we experienced an increase in the gross margins within our residential product group due to reduction in our net product costs which was greater than the decline in our average selling prices. Overall gross margins in 2016 improved from the prior year due to a shift in sales mix to higher-margin residential products.

Existing markets net sales by geographical region increased (decreased) from 2015 to 2016 as follows: Northeast 26.3%; Mid-Atlantic 17.5%; Southeast 34.4%; Southwest 24.9%; Midwest 4.4%; West 22.2%; and Canada (1.7%). These variations were primarily caused by short-term factors such as local market conditions, weather conditions and storm activity.

For 2016, our acquired markets recognized sales of $381.1 million, $245.2 million and $65.3 million in residential roofing products, non-residential roofing products and complementary building products, respectively. The combination of our 2016 existing market sales of $1.1 billion plus the sales from acquired markets of $691.6 million equals our total 2016 sales of $1.8 billion. We believe the existing market information is useful to investors because it helps explain organic growth or decline.

Our overall gross margins improved to 23.8% in 2016, due to a favorable shift in sales mix to residential products coupled with a decrease in the net products costs of both residential and non-residential products. Gross margins within our existing markets for 2016 increased to 24.5%.

Direct sales (products shipped by our vendors directly to our customers), which typically have substantially lower gross margins (and operating expenses) compared to our warehouse sales, represented 16.4% and 16.2% of our net sales in 2016 and 2015, respectively. We believe variations in direct sales activity to be primarily caused by short-term factors such as local market conditions, weather conditions and storm activity. None of these variations were driven by material regional impacts from changes in the direct sales mix of our geographical regions.

Operating Expense

Operating expense for consolidated and existing markets were as follows:

	Six Months Ended March 31,						Change¹
	2016			2015			$		%
	(Dollars in thousands)

Operating expenses - consolidated	$	398,224		$	224,724		$	173,500		77.2	%

________________________

Operating expense in our existing market increased by $10.5 million, or 5.0% in 2016, to $219.3 million, as compared to $208.8 million in 2015, while operating expense within our acquired markets was $179.0 million in 2016. The following factors were the leading causes of the increased operating expense in our existing markets:

·	An increase in payroll, employee benefits, and stock compensation costs of $11.4 million due to an increase in variable incentive and volume-related compensation costs;

·	7 new greenfield locations opened during fiscal years 2015 and 2016 that drove incremental operating expense of $2.2 million over the prior year;

partially offset by:

·	a decrease in general and administrative, selling, warehouse and other expenses of $1.5 million

·	a decrease in amortization expense of $0.8 million; and

During 2016 and 2015, we recorded $5.5 million and $6.3 million, respectively, of expense within our existing markets related to the amortization of intangible assets recorded under purchase accounting. Our existing markets operating expense as a percentage of the related net sales in 2016 was 19.8%, compared to 22.3% in 2015.

Interest Expense, Financing Costs and Other

Interest expense, financing costs and other expense was $29.3 million in 2016, as compared to $5.2 million in 2015. The primary driver of the increase is the additional interest expense incurred on the increase in debt outstanding over the comparative periods.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was less than $0.1 million in 2016, compared to $1.3 million in 2015. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in pre-tax income due to nonrecurring charges associated with the RSG acquisition that closed on October 1, 2015. The effective rate before discrete items increased to 39.69% in 2016, compared to 39.01% in 2015, which was primarily driven by non-deductible professional fees related to the RSG acquisition. We expect our fiscal 2016 effective annual income tax rate to average approximately 39.0% to 40.0%, excluding any discrete items.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

In general, sales and net income are highest during our first, third and fourth fiscal quarters, which represent the peak months of construction and re-roofing, especially in our branches in the northern and mid-western U.S. and in Canada. We have historically incurred low net income levels or net losses during the second quarter when our sales are substantially lower.

We generally experience an increase in inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable during the third and fourth quarters of the year as a result of the seasonality of our business. Our peak cash usage generally occurs during the third quarter, primarily because accounts payable terms offered by our suppliers typically have due dates in April, May and June, while our peak accounts receivable collections typically occur from June through November.

We generally experience a slowing of our accounts receivable collections during our second quarter, mainly due to the inability of some of our customers to conduct their businesses effectively in inclement weather in certain divisions. We continue to attempt to collect those receivables, which require payment under our standard terms. We do not provide material concessions to our customers during this quarter of the year.

We generally experience our peak working capital needs during the third quarter after we build our inventories following the winter season but before we begin collecting on most of our spring receivables.

Certain Quarterly Financial Data

The following table sets forth certain unaudited quarterly data for fiscal year 2016 (ending September 30, 2016) and fiscal year 2015 which, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of this data. Results of any one or more quarters are not necessarily indicative of results for an entire fiscal year or of continuing trends.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity as of March 31, 2016 were our cash and cash equivalents of $14.8 million and our available borrowings of $369.3 million under our asset based lending revolving credit facility.

Liquidity is defined as the current amount of readily available cash and the ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet the current needs for cash. We assess our liquidity in terms of our cash and cash equivalents on hand and the ability to generate cash to fund our operating activities, taking into consideration the seasonal nature of our business.

Significant factors which could affect future liquidity include the following:

	·	the adequacy of available bank lines of credit;

	·	the ability to attract long-term capital with satisfactory terms;

	·	cash flows generated from operating activities;

	·	acquisitions; and

	·	capital expenditures.

Our primary capital needs are for working capital obligations and other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and capital expenditures. Our primary sources of working capital are cash from operations and cash equivalents supplemented by bank borrowings. In the past, we have financed larger acquisitions initially through increased bank borrowings and the issuance of common stock. We then repay any such borrowings with cash flows from operations. We have funded most of our past capital expenditures with cash on hand or through increased bank borrowings, including equipment financing, and then have reduced those obligations with cash flows from operations.

We believe we have adequate current liquidity and availability of capital to fund our present operations, meet our commitments on our existing debt and fund anticipated growth, including expansion in existing and targeted market areas. We seek potential acquisitions from time to time and hold discussions with certain acquisition candidates. If suitable acquisition opportunities or working capital needs arise that would require additional financing, we believe that our financial position and earnings history provide a sufficient base for obtaining additional financing resources at reasonable rates and terms, as we have in the past. We may also issue additional shares of common stock to raise funds, which we last did in December 2005, or we may issue preferred stock.

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated:

	Six Months Ended March 31,
	2016			2015
	(In thousands)

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	80,652		$	62,485
Net cash used in investing activities		(951,838	)		(74,762	)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities		840,973			(18,582	)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and equivalents		(607	)		(657	)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	(30,820	)	$	(31,516	)

Operating Activities

Our net cash provided by operating activities was $80.7 million in 2016, compared to $62.5 million provided by operating activities in 2015. Cash from operations increased $18.2 million due to an increase in net income after adjustments for non-cash items of $41.5 million offset by a decline in net working capital of $21.6 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $951.8 million in 2016, compared to $74.8 million used in investing activities in 2015. During the six months of 2016, we spent $941.2 million on acquisitions. Capital expenditures were $11.1 million in 2016, compared to $5.4 million in 2015. We currently expect fiscal year 2016 capital expenditures to total approximately 1.0% of net sales, mostly dependent upon our sales volume and the impact of new branch openings.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $841.0 million in 2016, compared to $18.6 million used in financing activities in 2015. The net increase of $859.6 million was primarily due to the new financing agreements that the Company entered into as a result of the RSG acquisition offset by repayments and payment of deferred financing costs. In addition, proceeds from the issuance of common stock increased by $12.2 million to $15.4 million in 2016, as compared to $3.1 million in 2015.

Capital Resources

We currently have the following credit facilities:

a senior secured credit facility in the United States;

a senior secured credit facility in Canada;

a Term Loan B facility; and

Senior Notes

In connection with the RSG Acquisition on October 1, 2015, we entered into various financing arrangements totaling $1.5 billion. These arrangements allowed us to refinance its existing debt and substantially pay off all the RSG debt at closing. Prior to the RSG Acquisition, we had a credit facility with a syndicate of commercial banks that included a revolver and a long term note. As of the date of the Acquisition, approximately $185.6 million was outstanding on the long-term note payable and approximately $11.2 million was outstanding under the revolver.

The financing arrangements we entered into were an asset-based revolving line of credit facility (“ABL Facility”) of $700 million (of which $350 million was drawn at closing), a new $450 million term loan “B” facility (“Term Loan” or “Term Loan B Facility”), and $300 million of Senior Notes.

Revolving Line of Credit Facilities

The US Revolver has various tranches of borrowings, bearing interest at rates ranging from 2.12% to 4.00%. The effective rate of these borrowings is 2.13% and is paid monthly. As of March 31, 2016, the outstanding balance on the US Revolver, net of debt issuance fees, was $295.7 million. The US Revolver also has outstanding standby letters of credit in the amount of $10.3 million as of March 31, 2016. Current unused commitment fees on the revolving credit facilities are 0.25% per annum.

There is one financial covenant under the ABL Facility, which is a Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio. As defined in the ABL Facility, the Company’s ratio must be at least 1.00 to 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter, calculated on a trailing four quarter basis. The covenant is only applicable when the borrowing availability is less than 10% of the maximum loan cap or $60 million.

The ABL Revolver is guaranteed jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally by all of the United States subsidiaries of the Company but not by the Canadian subsidiaries of the Company.

Term Loan

On October 1, 2015, the Company entered into a $450 million Term Loan B Facility with Citibank N.A., and a syndicate of other lenders. The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments in the amount of $1.1 million, with the remaining outstanding principal to be paid on its maturity date of October 1, 2022. Outstanding principal on the Term Loan bears interest at 4.00% and is paid every six months. The Company has the option of selecting the rate at which interest can accrue on the Term Loan as well as the period in which interest payments are made. The Company elected to pay interest based on the six month LIBOR rate, subject to a minimum rate of 1.00%, in addition to a base rate of 3.00%. As of March 31, 2016 the outstanding balance on the Term Loan, net of debt issuance fees, was $436.6 million.

The Term Loan B is guaranteed jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally by all of the United States subsidiaries of the Company but not by the Canadian subsidiaries of the Company.

Senior Notes

The Company also raised $300 million in Senior Notes, which mature on October 1, 2023. These notes bear interest at the rate of 6.38% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning April 1, 2016. There are early payment provisions in the Senior Note indenture in which the Company would be subject to “make whole” provisions. Management anticipates repaying the notes at the maturity date of October 1, 2023. As of March 31, 2016 the outstanding balance on the Senior Notes, net of debt issuance fees, was $290.4 million.

The Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally by all of the United States subsidiaries of the Company but not by the Canadian subsidiaries of the Company.

Equipment Financing Facilities and Other Financing Arrangements

As of March 31, 2016, there was a total of $22.9 million outstanding under equipment financing facilities, with fixed interest rates ranging from 2.33% to 4.49% and payments due through September 2021.

The Company also has capital leases in the amount of $25.1 million outstanding as of March 31, 2016. These leases have interest rates ranging from 2.72% to 10.39% with payments due through November 2021.
