Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

  1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

Patrick Industries, Inc. (“Patrick” or the “Company”) operations consist of the manufacture and distribution of component products and materials for use primarily by the recreational vehicle (“RV”), marine, manufactured housing (“MH”) and industrial markets for customers throughout the United States and Canada. As of December 31, 2023, the Company maintained 179 manufacturing plants and 62 distribution facilities located in 23 states with a small presence in Mexico, China and Canada. Patrick operates intwo business segments: Manufacturing and Distribution.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Patrick and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates include the valuation of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, the valuation of long-lived assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, excess and obsolete inventories, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, the valuation of estimated contingent consideration, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, and certain accrued liabilities. Actual results could differ from the amounts reported.

Revenue Recognition

The Company is a major manufacturer and distributor of component products and materials serving original equipment manufacturers and other customers in the RV, marine, MH, and industrial industries. Revenue is recognized when or as control of the promised goods transfers to the Company's customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. The Company’s contracts typically consist of a single performance obligation to manufacture and provide the promised goods. To the extent a contract is deemed to have multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price of the contract to each performance obligation using the standalone selling price of each distinct good in the contract. The transaction price for contracts may include reductions to the transaction price for estimated volume discounts and rebates and other customer incentives.

Manufacturing segment revenue is recognized when control of the products transfers to the customer which is the point when the customer gains the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all the remaining benefits from the asset, which is generally upon delivery of goods, or upon shipment of goods in certain circumstances. In limited circumstances, where the products are customer specific with no alternative use to the Company, and the Company has a legally enforceable right to payment for performance to date with a reasonable margin, revenue is recognized over the contract term based on the cost-to-cost method. However, the financial impact of these contracts is immaterial considering the short production cycles and limited inventory days on hand.

Distribution segment revenue from product sales is recognized on a gross basis upon shipment or delivery of goods at which point control transfers to the customer. The Company acts as a principal in such arrangements because it controls the promised goods before delivery to the customer. The Company uses direct shipment arrangements with certain vendors and suppliers to deliver products to its customers without having to physically hold the inventory at its warehouses. The Company is the principal in the transaction and recognizes revenue for direct shipment arrangements on a gross basis. Our role as principal in our distribution sales is generally characterized by (i) customers entering into contracts with the Company, not the vendor; (ii) our obligation to pay the vendor irrespective of our ability to collect from the customer; (iii) our discretion in determining the price of the good provided to the customer; (iv) our title to the goods before the customer receives or accept the goods; and (v) our responsibility for the quality and condition of goods delivered to the customer.

Sales and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from net sales.

The Company records freight billed to customers in net sales. The corresponding costs incurred for shipping and handling related to these customer-billed freight costs are accounted for as costs to fulfill the contract and are included in warehouse and delivery expenses.

The Company’s contracts across each of its businesses typically do not result in situations where there is a time period greater than one year between performance under the contract and collection of the related consideration. The Company does not account for a significant financing component when the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between the Company's transfer of a promised good or service to a customer and the customer’s payment for that good or service will be one year or less.

The Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the incurred costs that the Company otherwise would have capitalized is one year or less. These costs, representing primarily sales commissions, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The Company does not disclose information about the transaction price being allocated to the remaining performance obligations at period end, as the Company does not have material contracts that have original expected durations of more than one year.

Contract liabilities, representing upfront payments from customers received prior to satisfying performance obligations, were immaterial in all periods presented and changes in contract liabilities were immaterial in all periods presented.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of goods sold includes material costs, direct and indirect labor, depreciation, overhead expenses, inbound freight charges, inspection costs, internal transfer costs, receiving costs, and other costs.

Warehouse and delivery expenses include salaries and wages, building rent and insurance, and other overhead costs related to distribution operations and delivery costs related to the shipment of finished and distributed products to customers.

Stock Based Compensation

Compensation expense related to the fair value of restricted stock awards as of the grant date is calculated based on the Company’s closing stock price on the date of grant. In addition, the Company estimates the fair value of all stock option and stock appreciation rights (“SARS”) awards as of the grant date by applying the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The use of this valuation model involves assumptions that are judgmental and highly sensitive in the determination of compensation expense, including the expected option term, dividend yield, risk-free interest rate and volatility of the Company's common stock. Expected volatilities take into consideration the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The expected term of options and SARS represents the period of time that the options and SARS granted are expected to be outstanding based on historical Company trends. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Trea sury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for instruments of a similar term. New shares are issued upon exercise of options. Forfeitures of stock based compensation are recognized as incurred.

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available for diluted shares (calculated as net income plus the after-tax effect of interest on potentially dilutive convertible notes, as defined by Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-06, as adopted in 2022) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, plus the weighted-average impact of potentially dilutive convertible notes as defined by ASU 2020-06, plus the dilutive effect of stock options, SARS, and certain restricted stock awards (collectively, “Common Stock Equivalents”). The dilutive effect of Common Stock Equivalents is calculated under the treasury stock method using the average market price for the period. Common Stock Equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. See Note 12 "Earnings Per Common Share" for the calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per common share.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Trade and Other Receivables

Trade receivables consist primarily of amounts due to the Company from its normal business activities. In assessing the carrying value of its trade receivables, the Company estimates the recoverability by making assumptions based on historical and forward-looking factors, such as historical and anticipated customer performance, current overall and industry-specific economic conditions, historical write-off and collection experience, the level of past-due amounts, and specific risks identified in the trade receivables portfolio. Other receivables consist of employee advances, insurance claims, amounts owed from vendors pertaining to importation costs, and other miscellaneous items.

Other receivables31,04630,787

Total$163,838$172,890

Inventories

Inventories are generally stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method or, for certain inventories, average costing method) and net realizable value. Based on the inventory aging and other considerations for realizable value, the Company writes down the carrying value to net realizable value where appropriate. The Company reviews inventory on-hand and records provisions for excess and obsolete inventory based on current assessments of future demand, market conditions, and related management initiatives. The cost of manufactured inventories includes raw materials, inbound freight, labor and overhead. The Company’s distribution inventories include the cost of materials purchased for resale and inbound freight.

Prepaid income taxes8,869—
Total$49,251$46,326

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) is generally recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed primarily by the straight-line method applied to individual items based on estimated useful lives, which is as follows for 2023:

Asset ClassEstimated life (years)
Buildings and improvements10-30
Leasehold improvements10
Capitalized software3-5
Machinery and equipment and transportation equipment3-7

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of their useful lives or the related lease term. The recoverability of PP&E is evaluated whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable, primarily based on estimated selling price, appraised value or projected future cash flows.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are subject to an annual impairment test based on their estimated fair value. The Company reviews goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment in the fourth quarter, or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired. The impairment test was performed on October 1, 2023.

In conducting its impairment testing, the Company estimates the fair value of our reporting units using both an income and market based approach. The market approach includes a comparison of multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the reporting units to similar businesses or guideline companies whose securities are actively traded in public markets. The income approach calculates the present value of expected cash flows to determine the estimated fair value of our reporting units. Additionally, the income approach requires us to estimate future cash flows, the timing of these cash flows, and a discount rate (based on a weighted average cost of capital), which represents the time value of money and the inherent risk and uncertainty of the future cash flows. The assumptions we use to estimate future cash flows are consistent with the assumptions that our reporting units use for internal planning purposes. When calculating the present value of future cash flows under the income approach, we take into consideration multiple variables, including forecasted sales volumes and operating income, current industry and economic conditions, and historical results.

If we determine that the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. Our fourth quarter 2023 goodwill impairment test concluded that the fair values of each of our reporting units exceeded their carrying values. Our 2023 indefinite-lived intangibles test also concluded that the fair values of intangibles exceeded their respective carrying values.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

When events or conditions warrant, the Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets other than goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and considers whether these assets are impaired. The Company assesses the recoverability of these assets based upon several factors, including management's intention with respect to the assets and their projected future undiscounted cash flows. If projected undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Company adjusts the carrying amounts of such assets to their estimated fair value. A significant adverse change in the Company’s business climate in future periods could result in a significant loss of market share or the inability to achieve previously projected revenue growth and could lead to a required assessment of the recoverability of the Company’s long-lived assets, which may subsequently result in an impairment charge. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives, as detailed further in Note 6 "Goodwill and Intangible Assets", and are also subject to an impairment test based on estimated undiscounted cash flows when impairment indicators exist.

Fair Value and Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The fair values are separated into three broad levels (Levels 1, 2 and 3) based on the assessment of the availability of observable market data and the significance of non-observable data used to determine fair value. Each fair value measurement must be assigned to a level corresponding to the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels are as follows:

Level 1 inputs, which are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs, which are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (which might include the reporting entity’s own data).

(2) The amounts of these notes listed above are the fair values for disclosure purposes only, and they are recorded in the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 using the interest rate method.

(3) The carrying amounts of our term loan and revolving credit facility approximate fair value as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 based upon their terms and conditions in comparison to the terms and conditions of debt instruments with similar terms and conditions available at those dates.

(4) The estimated fair value of the Company's contingent consideration is discussed further in Note 3 "Acquisitions".

Income Taxes

Income tax expense is calculated based on statutory tax rates of the federal, state, and international jurisdictions in which the Company operates and income earned or apportioned to each of these respective jurisdictions, as well as any additional tax planning available to the Company in these jurisdictions. Certain income and expenses are not reported in tax returns and financial statements in the same year. The tax effect of such temporary differences is reported as deferred income taxes.

Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method whereby deferred taxes are recognized based on temporary differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets may not be realized.

The Company reports a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements." The amendments in this update modify the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of topics in the codification. Certain of the amendments represent clarifications to or technical corrections of the current requirements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for interim periods beginning after June 30, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts of the provisions of ASU 2023-06.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures". This ASU updates reportable segment disclosure requirements by requiring disclosures of significant reportable segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of a segment's profit or loss. This ASU also requires disclosure of the title and position of the individual identified as the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of a segment’s profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of the ASU should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is also permitted. This ASU will likely result in additional required disclosures when adopted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on its disclosures; however, adoption will not impact our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures". This ASU establishes new income tax disclosure requirements in addition to modifying and eliminating certain existing requirements. Under the new guidance, entities must consistently categorize and provide greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation. They must also further disaggregate income taxes paid. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on its disclosures; however, adoption will not impact our consolidated financial statements.

  1. ACQUISITIONS

General

Business combinations generally take place to strengthen Patrick's positions in existing markets and increase its market share and per unit content, expand into additional markets, or gain key technology. Acquisitions are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. For each acquisition, the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill, which generally represents the combined value of the Company’s existing purchasing, manufacturing, sales, and systems resources with the organizational talent and expertise of the acquired companies’ respective management teams to maximize efficiencies, market share growth and net income.

The Company completed the acquisitions discussed below during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. The acquisitions were funded through cash on hand, issuance of shares, or borrowings under the Company’s credit facility in existence at the time of acquisition. For each of the acquisitions discussed, we either acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of the business, or acquired 100% of the equity interests. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the individual acquisitions were recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of the respective dates of acquisition. For each acquisition, the Company completes its allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities within a one-year measurement period. For those acquisitions where the purchase price allocation is provisional, which includes certain acquisitions completed in 2023, the Company is still in the process of finalizing the fair values of acquired intangible assets and fixed assets.

For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, revenue of approximately $17.7 million, $121.8 million and $259.9 million, respectively, was included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income pertaining to the businesses acquired in each such respective year.

For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, operating income of approximately $1.0 million, $19.4 million and $25.0 million, respectively, was included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income pertaining to the businesses acquired in each such respective year. Acquisition-related costs associated with the businesses acquired in 2023, 2022 and 2021 were immaterial in each respective year.

Contingent Consideration

In connection with certain acquisitions, if certain financial results for the acquired businesses are achieved, the Company is required to pay additional cash consideration. The Company records a liability for the fair value of the contingent consideration related to each of these acquisitions as part of the initial purchase price based on the present value of the expected future cash flows and the probability of future payments at the date of acquisition.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending aggregate fair values of the contingent consideration:

(2) In connection with one of the 2021 Acquisitions, the Company issued 113,961 shares of common stock at a closing price of $89.60 as of the acquisition date. Further detail of the 2021 Acquisitions can be found in the 2022 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2023.

(3) These amounts reflect the acquisition date fair value of contingent consideration based on future results relating to certain acquisitions.

(4) Goodwill is tax-deductible for the 2023 Acquisitions, for the 2022 Acquisitions, except Acquisition A and Acquisition B (totaling approximately $74.9 million), and for the 2021 Acquisitions, except Tumacs Covers (approximately $6.2 million).

(5) In connection with one of the 2023 Acquisitions, the Company recognized a $1.7 million bargain purchase gain. A bargain purchase gain is recognized when the net assets acquired in a business combination have a higher fair value than the consideration paid. This gain is primarily attributable to the fair value assigned to customer relationships in that acquisition and is included in "Selling, general and administrative" in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2023.

We estimate the value of acquired property, plant, and equipment using a combination of the income, cost, and market approaches, such as estimates of future income growth, capitalization rates, discount rates, and capital expenditure needs of the acquired businesses.

We estimate the value of customer relationships using the multi-period excess earnings method, which is a variation of the income approach, calculating the present value of incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to the asset. Non-compete agreements are valued using a discounted cash flow approach, which is a variation of the income approach, with and without the individual counterparties to the non-compete agreements. Trademarks and patents are valued using the relief-from-royalty method, which applies an estimated royalty rate to forecasted future cash flows, discounted to present value.

The estimated useful life for customer relationships is 10 years. The estimated useful life for non-compete agreements is 5 years. The weighted average estimated useful life for patents is 13 years, ranging from 10 to 18 years. Trademarks have an indefinite useful life.

2021 Credit Facility

On August 11, 2022, the Company entered into the first amendment of its Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated April 20, 2021 (as amended, the “2021 Credit Agreement”), under which the senior secured credit facility was increased to $925 million from $700 million and the maturity date was extended to August 11, 2027 from April 20, 2026. The senior credit facility under the 2021 Credit Agreement is comprised of a $775 million revolving credit facility (the

"Revolver due 2027") and the remaining balance of the $150 million term loan (the "Term Loan due 2027" and together with the Revolver due 2027, the "2021 Credit Facility"). The Company recorded a $0.3 million write-off of deferred financing costs as a result of the amendment, which is included in "Selling, general and administrative" in the Company's consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2022. Pursuant to the amendment, interest rates for borrowings under the 2021 Credit Agreement transitioned to a Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") based option from a London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") based option.

The Company determined that the amended terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement were not substantially different from the terms of the Company’s 2021 Credit Agreement prior to the amendment. Accordingly, debt modification accounting treatment was applied and the related impacts were immaterial.

Borrowings under the 2021 Credit Facility are secured by substantially all personal property assets of the Company and any domestic subsidiary guarantors. Pursuant to the 2021 Credit Agreement:

The quarterly repayment schedule for the Term Loan due 2027 was revised, with quarterly installments in the following amounts: (i) beginning June 30, 2021, through and including June 30, 2025, in the amount of $1,875,000, and (ii) beginning September 30, 2025, and each quarter thereafter, in the amount of $3,750,000, with the remaining balance due at maturity;

The interest rates for borrowings under the Revolver due 2027 and the Term Loan due 2027 are the Prime Rate or SOFR plus a margin, which ranges from 0.00% to 0.75% for Prime Rate loans and from 1.00% to 1.75% for SOFR loans depending on the Company's consolidated total leverage ratio, as defined below. The Company is required to pay fees on unused but committed portions of the Revolver due 2027, which range from 0.15% to 0.225%; and

Covenants include requirements as to a maximum consolidated secured net leverage ratio (2.75:1.00, increasing to 3.25:1.00 in certain circumstances in connection with Company acquisitions) and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (1.50:1.00) that are tested on a quarterly basis, and other customary covenants.

The total face value of the Term Loan due 2027 is $150.0 million. Total available borrowing capacity under the Revolver due 2027 is $775.0 million. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $129.4 million outstanding under the Term Loan due 2027 under the SOFR-based option, andno outstanding borrowings for the Revolver due 2027. The interest rate for incremental borrowings as of December 31, 2023 was SOFR plus 1.75% (or 7.20%) for the SOFR-based option. The fee payable on committed but unused portions of the Revolver due 2027 was 0.225% as of December 31, 2023.

1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028

In December 2021, the Company issued $258.75 million aggregate principal amount of 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the “1.75% Convertible Notes”). The total debt discount of $56.1 million at issuance consisted of two components: (i) the conversion option component, recorded to shareholders' equity, in the amount of $48.8 million, representing the difference between the principal amount of the 1.75% Convertible Notes upon issuance less the present value of the future cash flows of the 1.75% Convertible Notes using a borrowing rate for a similar non-convertible debt instrument and (ii) debt issuance costs of $7.3 million. The conversion option component of the 1.75% Convertible Notes was valued using Level 2 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. The unamortized portion of the total debt discount is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the 1.75% Convertible Notes. The effective interest rate on the 1.75% Convertible Notes, which includes the non-cash interest expense of debt discount amortization and debt issuance costs, was 2.14% as of December 31, 2023.

The net proceeds from the issuance of the 1.75% Convertible Notes were approximately $249.7 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company, but before deducting the net cost of the 1.75% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and the 1.75% Convertible Note Warrant Transactions (each as defined herein) described in Note 8 "Derivative Financial Instruments". The 1.75% Convertible Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and pay interest semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year at an annual rate of 1.75%. The 1.75% Convertible Notes will mature on December 1, 2028 unless earlier repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms. Prior to June 1, 2028, the 1.75% Convertible Notes may be converted at the option of the holders only upon the occurrence of specified events and during certain periods, and thereafter until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The Company will satisfy any conversion by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the 1.75% Convertible Notes to be converted and by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock, at its election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of its conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the 1.75% Convertible Notes being converted. The initial conversion rate for the 1.75% Convertible Notes is 9.9887 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 1.75% Convertible Notes (or 2,584,578 shares in the aggregate) and is equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $100.11 per share. If an event of default on the 1.75% Convertible Notes occurs, the principal amount of the 1.75% Convertible Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including additional interest, if any) may be declared immediately due and payable, subject to certain conditions.

The 1.75% Convertible Notes are guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantee the obligations of the Company under the 2021 Credit Facility.1.75% Convertible Notes holders may convert their Convertible Notes on or after June 28, 2028 at any time at their option. Holders may convert 1.75% Convertible Notes prior to June 28, 2028, only under the following circumstances: (i) during any calendar quarter, if the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day, (ii) during thefive business day period after anyfive consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day and (iii) upon the occurrence of certain specified distributions or corporate events.

4.75% Senior Notes due 2029

In April 2021, the Company issued $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "4.75% Senior Notes"). The 4.75% Senior Notes will mature on May 1, 2029. Interest on the 4.75% Senior Notes started accruing April 20, 2021 and is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on November 1, 2021. The effective interest rate on the 4.75% Senior Notes, which includes debt issuance costs, is approximately 4.97%. In connection with the issuance of the 4.75% Senior Notes, the Company incurred and capitalized as a reduction of the principal amount of the 4.75% Senior Notes approximately $5.1 million in deferred financing costs which are being amortized using the effective interest rate over the term of the 4.75% Senior Notes.

The 4.75% Senior Notes are senior unsecured indebtedness of the Company and are guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantee the obligations of the Company under the 2021 Credit Facility. If the Company experiences specific kinds of changes of control, the Company must offer to repurchase all of the 4.75% Senior Notes (unless otherwise redeemed) at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company may redeem the 4.75% Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at any time (a) prior to May 1, 2024, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the applicable premium described in the associated indenture and accrued and unpaid interest and (b) on or after May 1, 2024 at specified redemption prices set forth in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, prior to May 1, 2024, the Company may redeem, in one or more transactions, up to an aggregate of 40% of the original principal amount of the 4.75% Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 104.75% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings.

7.50% Senior Notes due 2027

In September 2019, the Company issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of 7.50% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “7.50% Senior Notes”). The 7.50% Senior Notes will mature on October 15, 2027. Interest on the 7.50% Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year. The effective interest rate on the 7.50% Senior Notes, which includes debt issuance costs, is 7.82%. In connection with the issuance of the 7.50% Senior Notes, the Company incurred and capitalized as a reduction of the principal amount of the 7.50% Senior Notes approximately $5.8 million in deferred financing costs which is amortized using the effective interest rate over the term of the 7.50% Senior Notes.

The 7.50% Senior Notes are senior unsecured indebtedness of the Company and are guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantee the obligations of the Company under the 2021 Credit Facility. The Company may redeem the 7.50% Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at any time (a) prior to October 15, 2022, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the applicable premium described in the associated indenture and accrued and unpaid interest and (b) on or after October 15, 2022 at specified redemption prices set forth in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, prior to October 15, 2022, the Company may redeem, in one or more transactions, up to an aggregate of 40% of the original principal amount of the 7.50% Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 107.5% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings. If the Company experiences specific kinds of changes of control, the Company must offer to repurchase all of the 7.50% Senior Notes (unless otherwise redeemed) at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

On February 1, 2023, the Company utilized borrowing capacity under the Revolver due 2027 to satisfy its repayment obligation at maturity of the 1.00% Convertible Notes. All noteholders elected to receive cash in repayment of the 1.00% Convertible Notes.

  1. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

1.75% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and Warrant Transactions

In December 2021, in connection with the 1.75% Convertible Notes offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated convertible note hedge transactions (together, the “1.75% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions”) with each of Bank of America, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and Nomura Global Financial Products, Inc. (together, the “1.75% Convertible Note Hedge Counterparties”). Pursuant to the 1.75% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions, the Company acquired options to purchase the same number of shares of the Company's common stock (or 2,584,578 shares) initially underlying the 1.75% Convertible Notes at an initial strike price equal to the initial strike price of the 1.75% Convertible Notes of approximately $100.11 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The options expire on December 1, 2028, subject to earlier exercise.

At the same time, the Company also entered into separate, privately negotiated warrant transactions (the “1.75% Convertible Note Warrant Transactions”) with each of the 1.75% Convertible Note Hedge Counterparties, pursuant to which the Company sold warrants to purchase the same number of shares of the Company's common stock (or 2,584,578 shares) underlying the 1.75% Convertible Notes, at an initial strike price of approximately $123.22 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The warrants have a final expiration date of July 25, 2029.

The Company paid $57.4 million associated with the cost of the 1.75% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and received proceeds of $43.7 million related to the 1.75% Convertible Note Warrant Transactions. The 1.75% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions are expected generally to reduce potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of the 1.75% Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 1.75% Convertible Notes. However, the 1.75% Convertible Note Warrant Transactions could separately have a dilutive effect on the Company's common stock to the extent that the market price per share of the common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants.

As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the 1.75% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and 1.75% Convertible Note Warrant Transactions are recorded in stockholders’ equity and are not accounted for as derivatives.

1.00% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and Warrant Transactions

In January 2018, in connection with the 1.00% Convertible Note offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated convertible note hedge transactions (the “1.00% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions”) and at the same time also entered into separate, privately negotiated warrant transactions (the “1.00% Convertible Note Warrant Transactions”). The 1.00% Convertible Note Hedge Transactions expired as of February 1, 2023 and the 1.00% Convertible Note Warrant Transactions expired as of September 20, 2023 in connection with the repayment at maturity of the 1.00% Convertible Notes.

Cash paid by the Company for income taxes was $84.3 million, $117.1 million and $46.2 million in 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had gross federal, state, and foreign net operating losses, of approximately $15.4 million and $17.6 million, respectively. These loss carryforwards generally expire between tax years ending December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2041. The components of the valuation allowance relate to certain acquired federal, state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards that the Company anticipates will not be utilized prior to their expiration, either due to income limitations or limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The tax effected values of these net operating losses are $1.2 million and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, exclusive of valuation allowances of $0.5 million and $0.5 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Company is subject to periodic audits by domestic tax authorities. For the majority of tax jurisdictions, the U.S. federal statute of limitations remains open for the years 2020 and later. Uncertain tax benefits were immaterial as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and activity related to uncertain tax benefits was immaterial for all periods presented.

  1. STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAMS

In December 2022, the Company's Board of Directors ("the Board") authorized an increase in the amount of the Company's common stock that may be acquired over the next 24 months under the current stock repurchase program to $100 million, including the $38.2 million remaining under the previous authorization. Approximately $77.6 million remains in the amount of the Company's common stock that may be acquired under the current stock repurchase program as of December 31, 2023. Under the stock repurchase plans, the Company made repurchases of common stock for 2023, 2022, and 2021 as follows:

202320222021
Shares repurchased276,7841,325,564612,325
Average price$67.95$58.08$79.93
Aggregate cost (in millions)$18.8$77.0$48.9

The Company’s common stock does not have a stated par value. As a result, repurchases of common stock have been reflected, using an average cost method, as a reduction of common stock, additional paid-in-capital and retained earnings in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

  1. LEASES

We lease certain facilities, trailers, forklifts and other assets. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and expense related to these short-term leases was immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. Variable lease expense, principally related to trucks, forklifts, and index-related facility rent escalators, was immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. Leases have remaining lease terms of 1 to 16 years. Certain leases include options to renew for an additional term. Where there is reasonable certainty to utilize a renewal option, we include the renewal option in the lease term used to calculate operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

The Company has additional operating leases that have not yet commenced as of December 31, 2023, and therefore, approximately $2.9 million in operating lease right-of-use assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities were not included in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023. These leases are expected to commence in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 with lease terms of 5 years.

  1. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits, audits, and other claims arising in the normal course of business. All such matters are subject to uncertainties and outcomes that are not predictable with assurance. Accruals for these items, when applicable, have been provided to the extent that losses are deemed probable and are reasonably estimable. These accruals are adjusted from time to time as developments warrant.

Although the ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be ascertained, on the basis of present information, amounts already provided, availability of insurance coverage and legal advice received, it is the opinion of management that the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, lawsuits, and other claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, results of operations, or cash flows.

In August 2019, a group of companies calling itself the Lusher Site Remediation Group (the “Group”) commenced litigation against the Company in Lusher Site Remediation Group v. Sturgis Iron & Metal Co., Inc., et al., Case Number 3:18-cv-00506, pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, relating to a site owned by the Company (the "Lusher Street Site"). The Group’s Second Amended Complaint, which was the first to assert claims against Patrick, asserted claims under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), 42 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq., an Indiana state environmental statute and Indiana common law. One defendant in the case, Sturgis Iron & Metal Co., Inc. (“Sturgis”), subsequently filed two cross claims against Patrick, asserting against the Company a claim for (i) contribution under CERCLA and (ii) contractual indemnity. The Company moved to dismiss the Group’s claims and also moved to dismiss Sturgis’s cross claims. On August 21, 2020, the court granted Patrick’s two motions to dismiss. The Group subsequently moved for reconsideration of the court’s decision.

On March 19, 2021, the Company received a General Notice of Potential Liability from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”), pursuant to Section 107(a) of CERCLA (the “Notice”). The Notice provides that the EPA has incurred and will likely incur additional costs relative to conducting a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study ("RI/FS"), conducting Remedial Design/Remedial Action ("RD/RA"), and other investigation, planning, response, oversight, and enforcement activities related to the Lusher Street Site. Because the Company was the owner of and former operator within the Lusher Street Site and as such may be a potentially responsible party pursuant to CERCLA, the Company received the Notice and an indication that it may have a responsibility to contribute to the costs of RI/FS, RD/RA or additional mitigation efforts incurred or to be incurred by the EPA.

On September 15, 2021, the Court granted the parties Joint Motion to Stay Proceedings Pending Negotiations with the EPA. The proceedings remain subject to the Court-approved stay.

The Company sold certain parcels of real property that the EPA contends are connected to the Superfund Site (the "Divested Properties") in January 2022 for a pretax gain on disposal of $5.5 million that is included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of income for year ended December 31, 2022. The purchaser agreed to indemnify, defend and hold the Company harmless for all liability and exposure, both private and to all EPA claims, concerning and relating to the Divested Properties. No further proceedings occurred in the year ended December 31, 2023. As to the real properties that were not among the Divested Properties but remain the subject of the litigation, the Company does not currently believe that the litigation or the Superfund Site matter are likely to have a material adverse impact on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, any litigation is inherently uncertain, the EPA has yet to select a final remedy for the Superfund Site, and any judgment or injunctive relief entered against us or any adverse settlement could materially and adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects.

  1. COMPENSATION PLANS

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has various stock option and stock-based incentive plans and various agreements whereby stock options, restricted stock awards, and SARS were made available to certain key employees, directors, and others based upon meeting various individual, divisional or company-wide performance criteria and time-based criteria. All such awards qualify and are accounted for as equity awards. Equity incentive plan awards, which are granted under the Company's 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan, are intended to retain and reward key employees for outstanding performance and efforts as they relate to the Company’s short-term and long-term objectives and its strategic plan.

  1. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Financial results for the Company's reportable segments have been prepared using a management approach, which is consistent with the basis and manner in which financial information is evaluated by the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) in allocating resources and in assessing performance. The Company hastwo reportable segments, Manufacturing and Distribution, which are based on its method of internal reporting, which segregates its businesses based on the way in which its CODM allocates resources, evaluates financial results, and determines compensation. The Company does not measure profitability at the end market (RV, marine, MH and industrial) level.

Manufacturing – This segment includes the following products: laminated products that are utilized to produce furniture, shelving, walls, countertops and cabinet products; cabinet doors; fiberglass bath fixtures and tile systems; hardwood furniture; vinyl printing; RV and marine furniture; audio systems and accessories, including amplifiers, tower speakers, soundbars, and subwoofers; decorative vinyl and paper laminated panels; solid surface, granite, and quartz countertop fabrication; RV painting; fabricated aluminum products; fiberglass and plastic components; fiberglass bath fixtures and tile systems; softwoods lumber; custom cabinetry; polymer-based and other flooring; electrical systems components including instrument and dash panels; wrapped vinyl, paper and hardwood profile mouldings; interior passage doors; air handling products; slide-out trim and fascia; thermoformed shower surrounds; specialty bath and closet building products; fiberglass and plastic helm systems and components products; treated, untreated and laminated plywood; wiring and wire harnesses; adhesives and sealants; boat towers, tops, trailers and frames; marine hardware and accessories; protective covers for boats, RVs, aircraft, and military and industrial equipment; aluminum and plastic fuel tanks; CNC molds and composite parts; slotwall panels and components; and other products.

Assets are identified to the segments except for cash, prepaid expenses, land and buildings, and certain deferred assets, which are identified with the corporate division. The corporate division charges rent to the segments for use of the land and buildings based upon estimated market rates. The Company accounts for intersegment sales similar to third party transactions, which reflect current market prices. The Company also records certain income from purchase incentive agreements at the corporate division. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on a variety of indicators including but not limited to sales and operating income as presented in the tables below.

The tables below present information that is provided to the CODM of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):

  1. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In January 2024, the Company announced that it completed its acquisition of Sportech, LLC, a leading designer and manufacturer of high-value, complex component solutions sold to powersports OEMs, adjacent market OEMs and the aftermarket. The aggregate purchase price for the acquisition (excluding working capital adjustments) was $315 million which was funded with borrowings under the Revolver due 2027 and cash on hand. As of the purchase date, we will record a preliminary purchase price allocation for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition. We expect to allocate a significant portion of the purchase price to identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. Certain portions of the goodwill balance will not be deductible for tax purposes. The Company will perform its valuation of net assets, based on facts and circumstances that existed as of the transaction date, over a period not to exceed 12 months, and adjustments will be recorded in the periods in which they are determined.
