NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
1.   Basis of Presentation
 
Builders FirstSource, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed in 1998, is a leading supplier and manufacturer of structural and related building products for residential new construction in the United States. In this quarterly report, references to the “company,” “we,” “our,” “ours” or “us” refer to Builders FirstSource, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires.
 
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all recurring adjustments and normal accruals necessary for a fair statement of the company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected during the remainder of the current year or for any future period. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2006 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2006 and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the more detailed audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2006 included in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. Accounting policies used in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Form 10-K.
 
2.   Net Income per Common Share
 
Net income per common share (“EPS”) is calculated in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 128, Earnings per Share, which requires the presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of potential common shares. For the purpose of computing diluted EPS, weighted average shares outstanding have been adjusted for common shares underlying options of 2.1 million and 3.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 have also been adjusted for 410,000 and 56,000 shares of restricted stock, respectively. Options to purchase 1.2 million and 620,000 shares of common stock were not included in the computations of diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, because their effect was anti-dilutive. There were 196,000 and 306,000 restricted stock shares excluded from the computations of diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, because their effect was anti-dilutive.

5.   Employee Stock-based Compensation
 
Our board of directors granted 600,000 stock options and 366,000 shares of restricted stock to employees on February 27, 2007. The grants were made under our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan and vest ratably over two to three years. We estimate that this grant will result in incremental stock-based compensation of approximately $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. The exercise price for these options was $18.00 per share, which was the closing stock price on that date. The weighted average grant date fair value of these options was $6.50 and was determined using the following weighted average assumptions:
 
         
Expected life
    4.4 years  
Expected volatility
    35.16%  
Expected dividend yield
    0.00%  
Risk-free rate
    4.47%  
 
6.   Commitments and Contingencies
 
We are a party to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate disposition of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the outcome of any claim that is pending or threatened, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations. However, there can be no assurances that future costs would not be material to our results of operations or liquidity for a particular period.

7.   Segment and Product Information
 
We have three regional operating segments — Atlantic, Southeast and Central — with centralized financial and operational oversight. We believe that these operating segments meet the aggregation criteria prescribed in SFAS No. 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, and thus have one reportable segment.
 
Sales by product category for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were as follows (in thousands):

  $ 465,140     $ 642,353     $ 876,283     $ 1,230,980  
                                 
 
8.   Income Taxes
 
We adopted FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), at the beginning of fiscal year 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition measurement, classification, interest and penalties, and disclosure requirements. The implementation of FIN 48 did not have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.
 
As a result of the adoption, we recognized a $0.8 million increase to reserves for uncertain tax positions, which was accounted for as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings. Including the cumulative effect adjustment, we had approximately $2.4 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits at January 1, 2007, $1.8 million of which will affect our effective tax rate if recognized. Also as of the adoption date, we had approximately $0.5 million ($0.3 million net of federal benefit) of interest and penalties accrued related to the unrecognized tax benefits. During the current quarter, the Internal Revenue Service completed the examination of our 2004 federal income tax return. As a result, we reduced the reserve for uncertain tax positions by approximately $0.4 million for those tax positions determined to be effectively settled. There were no other significant changes during the first six months of 2007 to the reserve balance for uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties. We currently record interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.
 
We are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. Based on completed examinations, we have concluded all U.S. federal income tax matters for years through 2002 and for 2004. During the remainder of 2007, the statute of limitation will expire on certain open tax years in various taxing jurisdictions and it is reasonably possible that an adjustment to the reserve for uncertain tax positions of approximately $0.3 million may occur, which would favorably affect income tax expense in the period that any uncertain tax positions are effectively settled. The company operates in 13 states with various years open to examination.
 
During the second quarter of 2007, tax legislation was enacted in one of our filing jurisdictions that increased the tax rate at which loss carryforwards can be utilized in the future. We increased the value of our deferred tax asset related to these loss carryforwards by approximately $1.5 million based on the provisions outlined in the legislation. The adjustment was recorded as a reduction to income tax expense.

9.   Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In June 2006, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net Presentation) (“EITF 06-3”). The scope of EITF 06-3 includes any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is directly imposed on a revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer. This issue provides that a company may adopt a policy of presenting taxes either gross within revenue or net. If taxes subject to this issue are significant, a company is required to disclose its accounting policy for presenting taxes and the amount of such taxes that are recognized on a gross basis. EITF 06-3 was effective for us beginning January 1, 2007, and the adoption of EITF 06-3 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We present sales tax on a net basis in our consolidated financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective as of the beginning of our 2008 fiscal year. We do not anticipate the application of SFAS 157 to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of our 2008 fiscal year. We are currently evaluating if we will elect the fair value option for any of our eligible financial instruments and other items.
 
In June 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issue number 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards (“EITF 06-11”). EITF 06-11 requires that tax benefits generated by dividends paid during the vesting period on certain equity-classified share-based compensation awards be classified as additional paid-in capital and included in a pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies from share-based payment awards. EITF 06-11 is effective as of January 1, 2008. We do not expect the adoption of EITF 06-11 to have a material effect on our financial statements
 
10.   Subsequent Event
 
On July 31, 2007, the Company acquired all the common stock of Bama Truss and Components, Inc. (“Bama”). Based in Shelby, Alabama, Bama is a market leader in multifamily and light commercial manufactured structural components. Its products include wood roof and floor trusses, wood panels, steel roof trusses and related building materials and services.
 
The acquisition will be accounted for by the purchase method, and accordingly the results of operations will be included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date. The purchase price will be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as goodwill. Pro forma results of operations will not be presented as this acquisition is not material.

COMPANY OVERVIEW
 
We are a leading supplier and manufacturer of structural and related building products for residential new construction in the U.S. Our manufactured products include our factory-built roof and floor trusses, wall panels and stairs, as well as engineered wood that we design and cut for each home. We also manufacture custom millwork and trim that we market under the SynboardTM brand name, and aluminum and vinyl windows. We also assemble interior and exterior doors into pre-hung units. In addition, we supply our customers with a broad offering of professional grade building products not manufactured by us, such as dimensional lumber and lumber sheet goods, various window, door and millwork lines, as well as cabinets, roofing and gypsum wallboard. Our full range of construction-related services includes professional installation, turn-key framing and shell construction, and spans all our product categories.
 
We group our building products and services into five product categories: prefabricated components, windows & doors, lumber & lumber sheet goods, millwork, and other building products & services. Prefabricated components consist of floor trusses, roof trusses, wall panels, stairs, and engineered wood. The windows & doors category is comprised of the manufacturing, assembly and distribution of windows and the assembly and distribution of interior and exterior door units. Lumber & lumber sheet goods include dimensional lumber, plywood and OSB products used in on-site house framing. Millwork includes interior trim, exterior trim, columns and posts that we distribute, as well as custom exterior features that we manufacture under the Synboard brand name. The other building products & services category is comprised of products such as cabinets, gypsum, roofing and insulation, and services such as turn-key framing, shell construction, design assistance, and professional installation of products, spanning all of our product categories.
 
Our operating results are dependent on the following trends, events and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control:
 
  •  Homebuilding Industry.  Our business is driven primarily by the residential new construction market, which is in turn dependent upon a number of factors, including interest rates and consumer confidence. During the past four quarters, many homebuilders significantly decreased their starts because of lower

Table of Contents

  demand and an excess of home inventory. Due to the decline in housing starts and increased competition for homebuilder business, we expect increasing pressure on our sales and margins. The decline in housing starts continues to be widespread affecting all our markets. However, we still believe there are several meaningful trends that indicate U.S. housing demand will likely remain healthy in the long term. These trends include rising immigration rates, the growing prevalence of second homes, relatively low interest rates, creative new forms of mortgage financing, and the aging of the housing stock.
 
  •  Targeting Large Production Homebuilders.  In recent years, the homebuilding industry has undergone significant consolidation, with the larger homebuilders substantially increasing their market share. In accordance with this trend, our customer base has increasingly shifted to production homebuilders — the fastest growing segment of the residential homebuilders. However, during the six months ended June 30, 2007, our sales to the top 10 homebuilders in the country decreased 38.7% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. We expect that our ability to maintain strong relationships with the largest builders will be vital to our ability to grow and expand into new markets.
 
  •  Expand into Multi-Family and Light Commercial Business.  We believe we can diversify our customer base and grow our sales by expanding into multi-family and light commercial business. While we primarily serve the single family new home construction market, we believe we can enter the multi-family and/or light commercial market in certain regions with limited incremental costs as these end markets are especially conducive for sales of prefabricated components.
 
  •  Increasing Use of Prefabricated Components.  Homebuilders are increasingly using prefabricated components in their homes in order to realize increased efficiency and improved quality. Additionally, as the homebuilders seek to control their costs in this challenging environment, we believe they will want to partner with their more value-added suppliers in order to increase efficiency and improve quality in the homebuilding process. We believe this has helped us gain market share throughout this down cycle. In response to this trend, we have continued to increase our manufacturing capacity and our ability to provide customers with prefabricated components. We believe the increasing use of prefabricated components is a meaningful trend even though it represented only a slightly larger percentage of our total sales for the six months ended June 30, 2007, when compared to the same period in 2006. This category was disproportionately affected by the housing decline as our operations in some of the weaker housing markets have a high concentration of manufactured product sales. In addition, lower prices for commodity lumber and lumber sheet goods had a negative impact on prefabricated component sales.
 
  •  Expansion of Existing and New Facilities.  We are seeking to increase our market penetration through the introduction of additional distribution and manufacturing facilities in markets that are underserved. In light of the current operating conditions, however, we do not anticipate opening or expanding as many facilities as we have in the past few years. New facilities, including acquisitions, generated incremental sales of approximately $18.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006.
 
  •  Economic Conditions.  Economic changes both nationally and locally in our markets impact our financial performance. The building products supply industry is dependent on new home construction and subject to cyclical market changes. Our operations are subject to fluctuations arising from changes in supply and demand, national and international economic conditions, labor costs, competition, government regulation, trade policies and other factors that affect the homebuilding industry such as demographic trends, interest rates, single-family housing starts, employment levels, consumer confidence, and the availability of credit to homebuilders, contractors and homeowners.
 
  •  Cost of Materials.  Prices of wood products, which are subject to cyclical market fluctuations, may adversely impact operating income when prices rapidly rise or fall within a relatively short period of time.
 
We purchase certain materials, including lumber products, which are then sold to customers as well as used as direct production inputs for our manufactured and prefabricated products. Short-term changes in the cost of these materials, some of which are subject to significant fluctuations, are sometimes passed on to our customers, but our pricing quotation periods may limit our ability to pass on such price changes. Our inability to pass on material price increases to our customers could adversely impact our operating income.

  •  Controlling Expenses.  Another important aspect of our strategy is controlling costs and enhancing our status as a low-cost building materials supplier in the markets we serve. We pay close attention to managing our working capital and operating expenses. We have a “best practices” operating philosophy, which encourages increasing efficiency, lowering costs, improving working capital, and maximizing profitability and cash flow. We constantly analyze our workforce productivity to achieve the optimum, cost-efficient labor mix for our facilities. Further, we pay careful attention to our logistics function and its effect on our shipping and handling costs.
 
CURRENT OPERATING CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK
 
Housing starts continued to experience year-over-year declines during the second quarter 2007. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, housing starts for June 2007 were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.406 million, which is 25.2% below the June 2006 rate of 1.879 million and 13.6% below the December 2006 rate of 1.628 million. Second quarter 2007 housing starts for our markets decreased approximately 32.9% compared to the second quarter 2006. In addition, market prices for lumber and lumber sheet goods in the second quarter 2007 were on average 17.7% lower than a year ago. When the housing market began to deteriorate in mid-2006, we outlined our strategy for managing through the housing downturn. This plan includes generating incremental sales through market share gains and new operations, maintaining margins, reducing costs and conserving capital.
 
In this environment, we are managing our business day-to-day, adjusting to customer demand. We believe we can mitigate a portion of the non-controllable macroeconomic factors by continuing to grow our market share and by diligently managing our cost structure. However, given the current market weakness, we think difficult market conditions affecting our business will continue to have a negative effect on our operating results into 2008.
 
While the homebuilding industry is currently in a down cycle, we still believe that the long-term outlook for the housing industry is positive due to growth in the underlying demographics. We believe our market leadership and financial strength afford us the ability to manage through the downturn and outperform our peers. We will continue to work diligently to achieve the appropriate balance of short-term cost reductions while maintaining the expertise to grow the business when market conditions improve. We want to avoid taking steps that will limit our ability to compete and create long-term shareholder value.
 
SEASONALITY AND OTHER FACTORS
 
Our first and fourth quarters have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, adversely affected by weather patterns in some of our markets, causing reduced construction activity. In addition, quarterly results historically have reflected, and are expected to continue to reflect, fluctuations from period to period arising from the following:
 
  •  The volatility of lumber prices;
 
  •  The cyclical nature of the homebuilding industry;
 
  •  General economic conditions in the markets in which we compete;
 
  •  The pricing policies of our competitors;
 
  •  The production schedules of our customers; and
 
  •  The effects of weather.
 
The composition and level of working capital typically change during periods of increasing sales as we carry more inventory and receivables. Working capital levels typically increase in the second and third quarters of the year due to higher sales during the peak residential construction season. These increases have in the past resulted in lower or negative operating cash flows during this peak season, which generally have been financed through our revolving credit facility or cash on hand. Collection of receivables and reduction in inventory levels following the peak building and construction season have more than offset this negative cash flow. More recently, we have relied less on our revolving credit facility due to our ability to generate sufficient operating cash flows. We believe our revolving

credit facility and our ability to generate positive cash flows from operating activities will continue to be sufficient to cover seasonal working capital needs.
 
ADOPTION OF FIN 48
 
We adopted FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), at the beginning of fiscal year 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition measurement, classification, interest and penalties, and disclosure requirements. The implementation of FIN 48 did not have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.
 
As a result of the adoption, we recognized a $0.8 million increase to reserves for uncertain tax positions, which was accounted for as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings. Including the cumulative effect adjustment, we had approximately $2.4 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits at January 1, 2007, $1.8 million of which will affect our effective tax rate if recognized. Also as of the adoption date, we had approximately $0.5 million ($0.3 million net of federal benefit) of interest and penalties accrued related to the unrecognized tax benefits. During the current quarter, the Internal Revenue Service completed the examination of our 2004 federal income tax return. As a result, we reduced the reserve for uncertain tax positions by approximately $0.4 million for those tax positions determined to be effectively settled. There were no other significant changes during the first six months of 2007 to the reserve balance for uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties. We currently record interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.
 
We are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. Based on completed examinations, we have concluded all U.S. federal income tax matters for years through 2002 and for 2004. During the remainder of 2007, the statute of limitation will expire on certain open tax years in various taxing jurisdictions and it is reasonably possible that an adjustment to the reserve for uncertain tax positions of approximately $0.3 million may occur, which would favorably affect income tax expense in the period that any uncertain tax positions are effectively settled. The company operates in 13 states with various years open to examination.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following table sets forth, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the percentage relationship to sales of certain costs, expenses and income items:

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared with the Three Months Ended June 30, 2006
 
Sales.  Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2007 were $465.1 million, a 27.6% decrease from sales of $642.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. In the three months ended June 30, 2007, housing starts in our markets decreased approximately 32.9%. In addition, market prices for lumber and lumber sheet goods were on average approximately 17.7% lower than in the three months ended June 30, 2006, consistent with the negative

commodity price impact on our sales in this category of 17.0%. Lower market prices for lumber & lumber sheet goods had an estimated 5.7% negative impact on our total sales. In addition, market share gains and, to a lesser extent, sales from new operations partially offset the significant decline in housing starts and market prices for commodity lumber products.
 
The following table shows sales classified by product category (dollars in millions):

We continued to improve our sales mix during the quarter, transitioning from commodity items to higher margin, value-added products, but we felt the negative impact of decreased housing starts across all our product categories. Lumber & lumber sheet goods and prefabricated components are also heavily influenced by commodity price deflation. For the lumber & lumber sheet goods category, our unit volume declined 24.4% while our prices declined 17.0%. This equates to $52.6 million and $36.5 million in sales declines due to unit volumes and price, respectively.
 
Our focus on growing our manufactured windows and installation business has mitigated some of the downward pressure from decreased housing activity. As our homebuilder customers downsize their operations, they have increasingly utilized our turn-key installation services. We believe our value-added products and services give us a competitive advantage helping us attract new business during this down cycle.
 
Gross Margin.  Gross margin decreased $53.6 million, or 31.5%. The gross margin percentage decreased from 26.5% in 2006 to 25.1% in 2007. Our gross margin dollars decreased primarily due to lower sales volume and lower lumber prices. Pricing pressure from our customers and the rising percentage of installed sales, which traditionally carry lower gross margins, had a negative impact on our gross margin percentage during the current quarter. In addition, our fixed manufacturing and installation overhead did not adjust to the lower sales volume and had a negative impact of 80 percentage points on our gross margin percentage. The overall decline in gross margin percentage was partially mitigated by a favorable change in sales mix towards higher margin products such as prefabricated components, millwork, and windows and doors. If market conditions continue to create increased competitive pressure, we may not be able to maintain these margins during the remainder of 2007.
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $18.2 million, or 15.5%. Our salaries and benefits expense, excluding $1.1 million of incremental stock-based compensation expense, decreased $16.8 million, or 22.1%, while our full-time equivalent employee headcount decreased 17.9%. Professional services fees decreased $1.2 million, the result of the company managing this semi-variable cost in response to current market conditions.
 
As a percent of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 18.3% in 2006 to 21.4% in 2007. Price deflation for commodity lumber products had a negative effect in 2007 of approximately 1.6 percentage points. In addition, incremental stock-based compensation expense increased selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales by 0.2 percentage points. Our fixed costs did not adjust with the lower sales volume and had a negative impact on our selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales. We continue to monitor our operating cost structure closely and plan to make adjustments as necessary.
 
Interest Expense, Net.  Net interest expense was $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $0.7 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to increased interest income related to higher cash


13

balances and was partially offset by additional interest expense resulting from higher interest rates during the three months ended June 30, 2007.
 
Income Tax Expense.  The effective tax rate decreased to 19.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 37.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2006. During the second quarter of 2007, tax legislation was enacted in one of our filing jurisdictions that increased the tax rate at which loss carryforwards can be utilized in the future. We increased the value of our deferred tax asset related to these loss carryforwards by approximately $1.5 million based on the provisions outlined in the legislation. The adjustment was recorded as a reduction to income tax expense. Also during the current quarter, the Internal Revenue Service completed the examination of our 2004 federal income tax return. As a result, we reduced the reserve for uncertain tax positions by approximately $0.4 million for those tax positions determined to be effectively settled.
 
Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared with the Six Months Ended June 30, 2006
 
Sales.  Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $876.3 million, a 28.8% decrease from sales of $1,231.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. In the six months ended June 30, 2007, housing starts in our markets decreased approximately 35.0%. In addition, market prices for lumber and lumber sheet goods were on average approximately 22.8% lower than in the six months ended June 30, 2006. However, we limited the negative commodity price impact to only a 16.6% sales decline in our lumber & lumber sheet goods category and a 5.7% decline in our total sales primarily through purchasing efficiencies, price management and product mix. In addition, market share gains and, to a lesser extent, sales from new operations partially offset the significant decline in housing starts and market prices for commodity lumber products.

We continued to improve our sales mix during the period, transitioning from commodity items to higher margin, value-added products, but we felt the negative impact of decreased housing starts across all our product categories. Lumber & lumber sheet goods and prefabricated components are also heavily influenced by commodity price deflation. In addition, sales of prefabricated components suffered disproportionately during the first quarter of 2007 due to the concentration of manufactured product sales in our Mid-Atlantic and Florida markets, which experienced significant declines in housing activity. For the lumber & lumber sheet goods category, our unit volume declined 26.2% while our prices declined 16.6%. This equates to $110.1 million and $69.9 million in sales declines due to unit volumes and price, respectively.
 
Our focus on growing our manufactured windows and installation business has mitigated some of the downward pressure from decreased housing activity. As our homebuilder customers downsize their operations, they have increasingly utilized our turn-key installation services. We believe our value-added products and services give us a competitive advantage helping us attract new business during this down cycle.
 
Gross Margin.  Gross margin decreased $99.4 million, or 31.0%. The gross margin percentage decreased from 26.0% in 2006 to 25.2% in 2007. Our gross margin dollars decreased primarily due to lower sales volume and lower lumber prices. Pricing pressure from our customers and the rising percentage of installed sales, which traditionally carry lower gross margins, had a negative impact on our gross margin percentage during the period. In addition, our fixed manufacturing and installation overhead did not adjust to the lower sales volume and had a


14


Table of Contents

negative impact of 90 percentage points on our gross margin percentage. The overall decline in gross margin percentage was partially mitigated by a favorable change in sales mix towards higher margin products such as prefabricated components, millwork, and windows and doors.. If market conditions continue to create increased competitive pressure, we may not be able to maintain these margins during the remainder of 2007.
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $33.0 million, or 14.3%. Our salaries and benefits expense, excluding $2.1 million of incremental stock-based compensation expense, decreased $31.1 million, or 20.7%, while our full-time equivalent employee headcount decreased 17.9%. Professional services fees decreased $1.0 million, the result of the company managing this semi-variable cost in response to current market conditions.
 
As a percent of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 18.7% in 2006 to 22.5% in 2007. Price deflation for commodity lumber products had a negative effect in 2007 of approximately 1.7 percentage points. In addition, incremental stock-based compensation expense increased selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales by 0.2 percentage points. Our fixed costs did not adjust with the lower sales volume and had a negative impact on our selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales. We continue to monitor our operating cost structure closely and plan to make adjustments as necessary.
 
Interest Expense, Net.  Net interest expense was $13.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $1.2 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to increased interest income related to higher cash balances and was partially offset by additional interest expense resulting from higher interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2007.
 
Income Tax Expense.  The effective tax rate decreased to 20.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 37.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. During the second quarter of 2007, tax legislation was enacted in one of our filing jurisdictions that increased the tax rate at which loss carryforwards can be utilized in the future. We increased the value of our deferred tax asset related to these loss carryforwards by approximately $1.5 million based on the provisions outlined in the legislation. The adjustment was recorded as a reduction to income tax expense. Also during the current quarter, the Internal Revenue Service completed the examination of our 2004 federal income tax return. As a result, we reduced the reserve for uncertain tax positions by approximately $0.4 million for those tax positions determined to be effectively settled.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
For information regarding our liquidity and capital resources see our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. Our cash balance has increased from $93.3 million at December 31, 2006, to $144.5 million at June 30, 2007. There have been no other material changes in our liquidity, commitments for capital expenditures or sources and mix of capital resources.
 
Consolidated Cash Flows
 
Cash provided by operating activities increased $24.2 million to $53.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. The increase was primarily due to changes in working capital driven by sales volume trends. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, our sales volume was trending upward, and our accounts receivable and inventories were increasing in support of our higher sales volume. The upward trend in sales volume over the six months ended June 30, 2007, was not as pronounced and thus our deployment of capital to support these sales was less than the same period a year ago. Our accounts payable balance grew during the six months ended June 30, 2007 due to a seasonal increase in sales volume as well as ongoing negotiations with vendors on payment terms.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, cash flows used for investing activities were $5.1 million and $41.5 million, respectively. Capital expenditures decreased from $15.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, to $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, as we strive to conserve capital in the current operating environment. We also used cash of $26.3 million to purchase a supplier of prefabricated components and building materials in 2006.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in cash received from stock option exercises.

In June 2006, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net Presentation) (“EITF 06-3”). The scope of EITF 06-3 includes any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is directly imposed on a revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer. This issue provides that a company may adopt a policy of presenting taxes either gross within revenue or net. If taxes subject to this issue are significant, a company is required to disclose its accounting policy for presenting taxes and the amount of such taxes that are recognized on a gross basis. EITF 06-3 was effective for us beginning January 1, 2007, and the adoption of EITF 06-3 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We present sales tax on a net basis in our consolidated financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective as of the beginning of our 2008 fiscal year. We do not anticipate the application of SFAS 157 to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”) which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of our 2008 fiscal year. We are currently evaluating if we will elect the fair value option for any of our eligible financial instruments and other items.
 
In June 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issue number 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards (“EITF 06-11”). EITF 06-11 requires that tax benefits generated by dividends paid during the vesting period on certain equity-classified share-based compensation awards be classified as additional paid-in capital and included in a pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies from share-based payment awards. EITF 06-11 is effective as of January 1, 2008. We do not expect the adoption of EITF 06-11 to have a material effect on our financial statements.
 
Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
We experience changes in interest expense when market interest rates change. Changes in our debt could also increase these risks. We utilize interest rate swap contracts to fix interest rates on a portion of our outstanding long- term debt balances. Based on debt outstanding and interest rate swap contracts in place at June 30, 2007, a 1.0% increase in interest rates would result in approximately $1.1 million of additional interest expense annually.
 
We purchase certain materials, including lumber products, which are then sold to customers as well as used as direct production inputs for our manufactured products that we deliver. Short-term changes in the cost of these materials, some of which are subject to significant fluctuations, are sometimes, but not always, passed on to our customers. Our delayed ability to pass on material price increases to our customers can adversely impact our operating income.
 
Item 4.   Controls and Procedures
 
Controls Evaluation and Related CEO and CFO Certifications.  Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. The controls evaluation was conducted by our Disclosure Committee, comprised of senior representatives from our finance, accounting, internal audit, and legal departments under the supervision of our CEO and CFO.

Table of Contents

Certifications of our CEO and our CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), are attached as exhibits to this quarterly report. This “Controls and Procedures” section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications, and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
 
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls.  We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors or all fraud. A system of controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Because of the limitations in all such systems, no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues or instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Furthermore, the design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective system of controls and procedures, misstatements or omissions due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
 
Scope of the Controls Evaluation.  The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of their objectives and design, the Company’s implementation of the controls and procedures and the effect of the controls and procedures on the information generated for use in this quarterly report. In the course of the evaluation, we sought to identify whether we had any data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, was being undertaken if needed. This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures can be reported in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Many of the components of our disclosure controls and procedures are also evaluated by our internal audit department, our legal department and by personnel in our finance organization. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis, and to maintain them as dynamic systems that change as conditions warrant.
 
Conclusions regarding Disclosure Controls.  Based on the required evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of June 30, 2007, we maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.  During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation described above that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.   Legal Proceedings
 
We are involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. We carry insurance coverage in such amounts in excess of our self-insured retention as we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and that may or may not cover any or all of our liabilities in respect of claims and lawsuits. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
 
Although our business and facilities are subject to federal, state and local environmental regulation, environmental regulation does not have a material impact on our operations. We believe that our facilities are in material compliance with such laws and regulations. As owners and lessees of real property, we can be held liable for the investigation or remediation of contamination on such properties, in some circumstances without regard to whether we knew of or were responsible for such contamination. Our current expenditures with respect to environmental investigation and remediation at our facilities are minimal, although no assurance can be provided that more

significant remediation may not be required in the future as a result of spills or releases of petroleum products or hazardous substances or the discovery of unknown environmental conditions.
 
Item 1A.  Risk Factors
 
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part 1, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
