NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Patrick Industries, Inc. (“Patrick”, the “Company”, "we", "our") contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that we believe are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, its results of operations for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023, and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023.

Patrick's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for Patrick do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For further information, refer to Patrick’s Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, and corresponding notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024.

The Company maintains its financial records on the basis of a fiscal year ending on December 31, with the fiscal quarters spanning approximately thirteen weeks. The first quarter ends on the Sunday closest to the end of the first thirteen-week period. The second and third quarters are thirteen weeks in duration and the fourth quarter is the remainder of the year. The first quarter of fiscal year 2024 ended on March 31, 2024 and the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 ended on April 2, 2023.

Reclassified Amounts

Certain amounts have been reclassified in prior year financial statements to conform with current year presentation. These reclassifications are immaterial to the overall financial statements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

A summary of significant accounting policies is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024

New Accounting Standards

Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification.

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have an immaterial impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

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 otherwise 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 otherwise impact our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 5. 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, and 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 four acquisitions in the first three months of 2024 (the "2024 Acquisitions"). For the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, net sales included in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of income related to the 2024 Acquisitions were $58.1 million, and operating income was $11.0 million. Acquisition-related costs associated with the 2024 Acquisitions were $5.0 million. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisitions were recorded on the Company's condensed 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. The Company completed no acquisitions in the first quarter of 2023.

In connection with certain acquisitions, the Company is required to pay additional cash consideration if certain financial results of the acquired businesses are achieved. The Company records a liability for the estimated 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.

Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are as follows:

Balance - December 31, 2023$8,510
Settlements(3,880)
Balance - March 31, 2024$4,630

The following table shows the balance sheet location of the fair value of contingent consideration and the maximum amount of contingent consideration payments the Company may be subject to at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

2024 Acquisitions

The Company completed four acquisitions in the first three months ended March 31, 2024, including the following previously announced acquisition:

CompanySegmentDescription
Sportech, LLC ("Sportech")ManufacturingLeading designer and manufacturer of high-value, complex component solutions sold to powersports original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"), adjacent market OEMs and the aftermarket, including integrated door systems, roofs, canopies, bumpers, windshields, fender flares and cowls, based in Elk River, Minnesota, acquired in January 2024.

Inclusive ofthree acquisitions not discussed above, total cash consideration for the 2024 Acquisitions was approximately $329.6 million. The preliminary purchase price allocations are subject to valuation activities being finalized, and thus certain purchase accounting adjustments are subject to change within the measurement period as the Company finalizes its estimates.

2023 Acquisitions

The Company completed three acquisitions in the year ended December 31, 2023, including the following previously announced acquisition:

CompanySegmentDescription
BTI TransportDistributionProvider of transportation and logistics services to marine OEMs and dealers, based in Elkhart, Indiana, acquired in April 2023. The acquired business operates under the Patrick Marine Transport brand.

Inclusive oftwo acquisitions not discussed above, total cash consideration for the 2023 Acquisitions was approximately $26.3 million, plus contingent consideration over atwo-year period based on future performance in connection with certain acquisitions. The preliminary purchase price allocations are subject to valuation activities being finalized, and thus certain purchase accounting adjustments are subject to change within the measurement period as the Company finalizes its estimates. Changes to preliminary purchase accounting estimates recorded in the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 related to the 2023 Acquisitions were immaterial.

The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition for the 2024 Acquisitions and 2023 Acquisitions:

$317,589$9,680$327,269$29,794

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

(2) Goodwill is tax-deductible for all acquisitions, except Sportech, which is only partially tax-deductible.

(3) 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 estimated useful life for patents and developed technology 10 years. Trademarks have an indefinite useful life.

Pro Forma Information

The following pro forma information for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023 assumes the 2024 Acquisitions and 2023 Acquisitions occurred as of the beginning of the year immediately preceding each such acquisition. The pro forma information contains the actual operating results of the 2024 Acquisitions and 2023 Acquisitions combined with the results prior to their respective acquisition dates, adjusted to reflect the pro forma impact of the acquisitions occurring as of the beginning of the year immediately preceding each such acquisition.

The pro forma information includes financing and interest expense charges based on incremental borrowings incurred in connection with each transaction. In addition, the pro forma information includes amortization expense, in the aggregate, related to intangible assets acquired in connection with the transactions of $1.8 million and $5.6 million, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023, respectively.

The interest rate for incremental borrowings under the Revolver due 2027 at March 31, 2024 was the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1.75% (or 7.18%) for the SOFR-based option. The fee payable on committed but unused portions of the Revolver due 2027 was 0.225% at March 31, 2024.

Total cash interest paid for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 was $8.5 million and $5.8 million, respectively.

NOTE 11. 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. The operating results of the operating segments are regularly reviewed by the Company’s CODM, the Chief Executive Officer, to assess the performance of the individual operating segments and to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the operating segments. The Company does not measure profitability at the customer end market (RV, marine, powersports, MH and industrial) level.

NOTE 13. 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 financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company described the current status of litigation concerning the Lusher Site Remediation Group. In early July 2023, the Court granted the Company’s Rule 54(b) Motion for Final Judgment on previously dismissed claims and granted the Company’s Motion to Dismiss the plaintiff’s remaining claims against the defendants, without prejudice (the Company’s Motion to Dismiss having been joined by the remaining defendants in the litigation.) The only remaining issue pending in the litigation for the Court’s determination is the plaintiff’s motion to bar contribution claims. The Company has also been named as a potentially responsible party for the related Lusher Street Groundwater Contamination Superfund Site (the "Superfund Site") by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA"). There has been no change in the status of the proceedings as described in the 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024. 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.
