Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
SiteOne Landscape Supply, Inc. (hereinafter collectively with all its consolidated subsidiaries referred to as the “Company” or individually as “Holdings”) is a wholesale distributor of hardscapes (such as pavers, natural stone, and blocks), irrigation supplies, fertilizer and control products (e.g., herbicides), landscape accessories, nursery goods, outdoor lighting, and ice melt products to green industry professionals. The Company also provides value-added consultative services to complement its product offering and to help customers operate and grow their businesses. Substantially all of the Company’s sales are to customers located in the United States of America (“U.S.”), with less than three percent of sales and total assets in Canada for all periods presented. As of December 28, 2025, the Company had over 670 branches. Based on the nature of the Company’s products and customers’ business cycles, sales are significantly higher in the second and third quarters of each fiscal year.
Share Repurchase Program
On October 20, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase, at any time or from time to time, shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $400.0 million pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan and/or pursuant to open market or accelerated share repurchase arrangements, tender offers, or privately negotiated transactions.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
Holdings indirectly owns 100% of the membership interest in SiteOne Landscape Supply Holding, LLC (referred to herein as “Landscape Holding”). Landscape Holding is the parent and sole owner of SiteOne Landscape Supply, LLC (referred to herein as “Landscape”). Prior to the transaction described below, Deere & Company (“Deere”) was the sole owner of SiteOne Landscape Supply Holding, LLC.
On December 23, 2013 (the “Closing Date”), the Company acquired 100% of the ownership interest in Landscape Holding from Deere in exchange for common shares of the Company initially representing 40% of the outstanding capital stock (on an as-converted basis) plus cash consideration of $314 million, net of pre-closing and post-closing adjustments. In order to facilitate the transaction, the Company issued Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock to Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”) for total consideration of $174 million initially representing 60% of the outstanding capital stock (on an as-converted basis). As part of the same transaction, Landscape Holding also acquired from Deere the affiliated company LESCO, Inc. (“LESCO”). The Company continues to be the sole owner of Landscape Holding. The aforementioned transactions described in this paragraph are referred to herein as the “CD&R Acquisition”.
On May 17, 2016, the Company completed its initial public offering of its common stock and following consummation of the Company’s secondary offering on July 26, 2017, CD&R and Deere no longer have an ownership interest in the Company.
The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
The Consolidated Statements of Operations, Comprehensive Income, Equity and Redeemable Non-controlling Interest, and Cash Flows for the Company are presented for the fiscal years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023. The Consolidated Balance Sheets are presented for the fiscal years ended December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024. The consolidated financial statements for the Company include the assets and liabilities used in operating the Company’s business, including entities in which the Company owns or controls more than 50% of the voting shares. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Significant Accounting Policies
Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fiscal year: The Company’s fiscal year is a 52- or 53-week period ending on the Sunday nearest to December 31. The fiscal years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023 each included 52 weeks.
Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include primarily cash on deposit with banks which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts. Cash and cash equivalents also include unsettled credit card transactions.
Accounts receivable: Accounts receivable is presented at the original invoice amount, less any charge-offs and the allowance for credit losses and doubtful accounts. Allowances for credit losses and doubtful accounts are maintained in amounts considered to be appropriate in relation to the receivables outstanding based on collection experience, economic conditions, credit risk quality, and reasonable supportable forecasts. Receivables are written-off to the allowance when an account is considered uncollectible.
Activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the periods was as follows (in millions):
| For the yearDecember 30, 2024 to December 28, 2025 | For the yearJanuary 1, 2024 to December 29, 2024 | For the yearJanuary 2, 2023 to December 31, 2023 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginning balance | $26.9 | $27.3 | $21.7 |
| Provision for allowance | 17.7 | 13.3 | 10.8 |
| (Write-offs) recoveries, net | (11.3) | (13.7) | (5.2) |
| Ending balance | $33.3 | $26.9 | $27.3 |
Inventory: The majority of the Company’s inventories are valued at the lower of actual cost or estimated net realizable value, with cost determined by the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventory is primarily considered to be finished goods. The Company establishes a reserve for excess, slow-moving, and obsolete inventory that is equal to the difference between the cost and estimated net realizable value for that inventory. These reserves are based on a review of planned and historical sales. The reserve for obsolete and excess inventory was $19.8 million and $15.1 million as of December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively.
Property and equipment, net: Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on property and equipment using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as noted below. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease terms. The amortization of the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets under finance leases is included in amortization expense. Expenditures for replacement or major renewals of significant items are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are generally charged to expense as incurred.
| Asset Class | Estimated Useful Life |
|---|---|
| Buildings and improvements | 20 years |
| Branch equipment | 2 to 12 years |
| Furniture and fixtures | 2 to 12 years |
| Auto and truck | 2 to 6 years |
| Tooling | 7 years |
| Leasehold improvements | Shorter of the estimated useful life or the term of the lease, considering renewal options expected to be exercised. |
Acquisitions: When the Company acquires a controlling financial interest in an entity or group of assets that are determined to meet the definition of a business, the acquisition method described in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations, is applied. The Company allocates the purchase consideration paid to acquire the business to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values at the acquisition date, with the excess of purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired recorded as goodwill. If during the measurement period (a period not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date) the Company receives additional information that existed as of the acquisition date but at the time of the original allocation described above was unknown, the Company makes the appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation in the reporting period in which the adjustments are identified.
Goodwill: Goodwill represents the acquired fair value of a business in excess of the fair values of tangible and identified intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company tests goodwill on an annual basis as of July fiscal month-end and additionally if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. Examples of such indicators include a significant change in the business climate, unexpected competition, loss of key personnel, or a decline in the Company’s market capitalization below the Company’s net book value. The Company performs impairment assessments at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, also known as a component.
For impairment tests using a quantitative approach, the Company is required to estimate and compare the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, the goodwill is not considered impaired. To the extent a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, the reporting unit’s goodwill is deemed impaired, and an impairment charge is recognized based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value. No impairment of goodwill has occurred during the periods presented. Refer to “Note 5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net” for more information regarding goodwill.
Intangible assets, net: Intangible assets include customer relationships as well as trademarks and other intangibles acquired through acquisitions. The fair value of customer relationships is determined using the multi-period excess earnings method, which is a specific discounted cash flow method that requires management to make estimates and assumptions, including the selection of the discount rates. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on an accelerated method or a straight-line method of amortization over their estimated useful lives. An accelerated amortization method reflecting the pattern in which the asset will be consumed is utilized if that pattern can be reliably determined. If that pattern cannot be reliably determined, a straight-line amortization method is used. The Company considers the period of expected cash flows and the underlying data used to measure the fair value of the intangible assets when selecting a useful life. The Company’s customer relationships are amortized on an accelerated method. Refer to “Note 5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net” for more information regarding amortization of intangible assets.
Impairment of long-lived assets: Long-lived assets, primarily property and equipment, finite-lived intangible assets, and long-term contracts included in other assets, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset group may not be recoverable. The recoverability of an asset group is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset group to its future undiscounted cash flows.
If the recoverability test indicates the asset group balances are not recoverable, the Company would recognize an impairment charge in the current period to reduce the long-lived asset balances based on the fair value of the asset group.
During the fourth quarter of 2025 and 2024, the Company consolidated or closed certain branches and other locations and determined that there were indicators of impairment with respect to the impacted asset groups, including operating lease ROU assets as well as property and equipment. A long-lived asset impairment test was performed during the fourth quarter of 2025 and 2024, which indicated that the fair value of certain asset groups was lower than their respective carrying values. Accordingly, in the 2025 Fiscal Year and the 2024 Fiscal Year the Company recorded impairment and other related charges of approximately $5.6 million and $11.4 million, respectively. The charges included a write down of approximately $4.4 million and $9.5 million, respectively, related to operating lease ROU assets, and approximately $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, related to property and equipment. The long-lived asset impairment charges were recorded to Selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, related to the consolidation and closure of the branches, a write-down of inventory to estimated net realizable value of approximately $0.4 million and other closure costs of approximately $0.3 million were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025, and reclamation and repair costs of approximately $1.0 million were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024. These were recorded to Selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Fair value measurement: Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing an amount that would be received to sell an asset or the amount paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized into the following three-tiered value hierarchy:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, which are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data.
The hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The classification of fair value measurement within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, interest rate swap contracts, long-term debt, and redeemable non-controlling interest. The variable interest rate on the long-term debt is reflective of current market borrowing rates. As such, the Company has determined that the carrying value of these financial instruments approximates fair value.
Interest rate swaps: The Company is subject to interest rate risk with regard to existing and future issuances of debt. The Company has, in the past, utilized interest rate swap contracts to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in variable interest rates for future interest payments on existing debt. Prior to the termination of interest rate swaps 7, 8, and 9 upon maturity on March 23, 2025, the Company was party to interest rate swap contracts to convert the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate on the borrowings under the term loans.
The Company recognized the unrealized gains or unrealized losses for interest rate swap contracts as either assets or liabilities at fair value on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The interest rate swap contracts were subject to master netting arrangements. The Company had elected not to offset the fair value of assets with the fair value of liabilities related to these contracts. The Company used significant observable market data or assumptions (Level 2 inputs) that market participants would use in pricing similar assets or liabilities, including assumptions about counterparty risk to determine the fair value of the interest rate swap contracts. The fair value estimates reflected an income approach based on the terms of the interest rate swap contracts and inputs corroborated by observable market data including interest rate curves.
The Company recognized any differences between the variable interest rate payments and the fixed interest rate settlements from the swap counterparties as adjustments to interest expense over the life of the swaps. The Company had designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and recorded changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps to Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. If it became probable the forecasted transactions would not occur, the hedge relationship would have been de-designated and amounts accumulated in AOCI would have been reclassified to Interest and other non-operating expenses, net in the current period. Future changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments would be reported in Interest and other non-operating expenses, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Treasury stock: The Company records purchases of treasury stock at cost, which is reflected as a reduction to Stockholders’ equity on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Incremental direct costs to purchase treasury stock are included in the cost of the shares acquired.
Revenue recognition: The Company recognizes revenue when control over a product or service is transferred to a customer. This transfer occurs primarily when goods are picked up by a customer at the Company’s branch or when goods are delivered to a customer location. Revenue is measured at the transaction price, which is based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to the customer. The transaction price will include estimates of variable consideration to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue recognized will not occur. In all cases, when a sale is recorded by the Company, no significant uncertainty exists surrounding the customer’s obligation to pay. The Company also enters into agency agreements with certain of its suppliers whereby the Company operates as a sales agent of those suppliers. The suppliers retain title to their merchandise until it is sold by the Company and determine the prices at which the Company can sell their merchandise. The Company recognizes these agency sales on a net basis and records only the product margin as commission revenue. In addition, Net sales include billings to customers for freight and handling charges. Net sales are presented net of any discounts, returns, customer rebates, and sales or other revenue-based taxes. Provisions for returns are estimated and accrued at the time a sale is recognized.
Sales incentives: The Company offers rebates to certain customers, which are accrued based on sales volumes. In addition, the Company offers a points-based reward program that allows enrolled customers to earn loyalty rewards on purchases to be used on future purchases, to pay for annual customer trips hosted by the Company, or to obtain gift cards to other third-party retailers. The Company often receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company’s performance of the customer loyalty rewards program resulting in contract liabilities, which are determined on a contract-by-contract basis. These contract liabilities are classified in Accrued liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to “Note 2. Revenue from Contracts with Customer” for further details regarding the Company’s customer loyalty rewards program.
Sales taxes: The Company collects and remits taxes assessed by different governmental authorities that are both imposed on and concurrent with revenue producing transactions between the Company and its customers. These taxes may include sales, use, value-added, and some excise taxes. The Company reports the collection of these taxes on a net basis (excluded from sales).
Cost of goods sold: Cost of goods sold includes all inventory costs, such as the purchase price from suppliers, net of any volume-based incentives and discounts, as well as inbound freight and handling, and other costs associated with inventory, and is exclusive of the costs to deliver the products to customers.
Shipping and handling costs: Shipping and handling costs associated with inbound freight are included in Cost of goods sold.
Leases: The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of a contract. The Company leases equipment and real estate including office space, branch locations, and distribution centers under operating leases. Finance lease obligations consist primarily of the Company’s vehicle fleet. Most leases includeone or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term fromone year tofive years or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. Certain leases include options to purchase the leased property. ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the net present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company's operating leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Finance lease agreements generally include an interest rate that is used to determine the present value of future lease payments. Variable lease payment amounts that cannot be determined at the commencement of the lease such as increases in lease payments based on changes in index rates or usage, are not included in the ROU assets or lease liabilities. These amounts are expensed as incurred and recorded as variable lease expense. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to “Note 6. Leases” for further details regarding leases.
Advertising costs: Advertising costs are charged to expense as incurred and were $14.4 million, $13.1 million, and $13.7 million, during the years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Stock-based compensation: The Company applies the fair value method to recognize compensation expense for stock-based awards. Using this method, the estimated grant-date fair value of the award is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period based on the portion of the award that is expected to vest.
Stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units is measured based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the grant-date fair value of option awards. The exercise price of option awards is set to equal the value of the common stock at the date of the grant. The following weighted-average assumptions are also used to calculate the estimated fair value of option awards:
Expected volatility: The expected volatility of the Company’s shares is estimated using the Company’s historical stock price volatility over the most recent period commensurate with the estimated expected term of the awards.
Expected term: For employee stock option awards, the Company determines the weighted average expected term equal to the weighted period between the vesting period and the contract life of all outstanding options.
Dividend yield: The Company has not paid dividends and does not anticipate paying a cash dividend in the foreseeable future and, accordingly, uses an expected dividend yield ofzero.
Risk-free interest rate: The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield available on a U.S. Treasury note with a term equal to the estimated expected term of the awards.
Refer to “Note 7. Employee Benefit and Stock Incentive Plans” for further details regarding stock-based compensation.
Other income: Other income consists primarily of financing charges, net gain/loss on sale of assets, foreign currency gain/loss, and the fair value adjustments of acquisition related contingent obligations.
Income taxes: The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return and files both combined or unitary state income tax returns as well as separate state income tax returns in certain jurisdictions. Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method in which deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences as well as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income.
The Company’s operations involve dealing with uncertainties and judgments in the application of complex tax regulations in a multitude of jurisdictions. The Company reports a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return based on its estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. The Company recognizes interest, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits within Interest and other non-operating expenses, and recognizes penalties in Selling, general and administrative expenses.
In November 2025 and 2024, the Company entered into agreements to become a limited partner in a tax-advantaged limited partnership investing in approved qualified renewable energy projects. The Company’s investments include a tax equity interest structured as an inverted lease and as a partnership flip. The carrying value of the investments is included in Other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with any unfunded commitments included in Accrued liabilities. The Company’s tax equity investments qualify for the application of the proportional amortization method (“PAM”), under which, the tax equity investments are amortized in proportion to the allocation of income tax credits and are recorded within Income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For its tax equity investment structured as an inverted lease, the Company recognizes deferred taxes on the basis difference to reflect the financial impact of other income tax benefits (e.g., tax operating losses) that are not included under PAM. These income tax credits and other income tax benefits received are included in Net cash provided by operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Refer to “Note 9. Income Taxes” for further information pertaining to income taxes.
Redeemable Non-controlling Interest: In April 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase and Redemption Agreement, pursuant to which it acquired a 75% ownership interest in Devil Mountain Wholesale Nursery, LLC (“Devil Mountain”). The Company maintains a controlling financial interest in Devil Mountain and consolidates this entity. The portion of Net income (loss) and Comprehensive income (loss) of Devil Mountain attributable to the non-controlling interest is shown separately in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, respectively. The share of equity in Devil Mountain attributable to the non-controlling interest is reported as Redeemable non-controlling interest in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as temporary equity. In addition, the Company entered into an amended operating agreement, the Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement (the “Operating Agreement”), in connection with the acquisition of the Company’s controlling interest. The Operating Agreement contains put and call options whereby the remaining 25% ownership interest in Devil Mountain may be sold to the Company through the exercise of the holders’ put option or purchased by the Company through the exercise of the Company’s call option. The put option may be exercised any time on or after three years from the date of acquisition, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain circumstances. The Company’s call option may be redeemed any time on or after five years from the date of acquisition, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain circumstances. The put and call option price is based on a multiple of earnings, subject to the terms of the Operating Agreement.
Non-controlling interest represents the portion of profit or loss, net assets, and comprehensive income or loss that is not allocable to the Company. A non-controlling interest that contains an option requiring the Company to purchase such ownership interest for cash is considered to be a redeemable non-controlling interest as the redemption feature is not deemed to be a freestanding financial instrument and the redemption is not solely within the Company’s control. The put and call options embedded in the Redeemable non-controlling interest did not require bifurcation as they did not meet the definition of a derivative and were considered to be clearly and closely related to the Redeemable non-controlling interest. Redeemable non-controlling interest is recorded as a temporary equity mezzanine item between liabilities and stockholders’ equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In connection with the purchase accounting of the Company’s ownership interest in Devil Mountain, the Company recorded the estimated fair value of the non-controlling interest as redeemable.
In accordance with ASC 810, the carrying value of the Redeemable non-controlling interest is remeasured each reporting period to allocate Net income (loss). In accordance with ASC 480, the carrying value is further adjusted to reflect the redemption value as if the security was redeemable as of the balance sheet date. Under ASC 480, the Company elected for the terms of the redemption feature to be fully considered in the measurement of Net income attributable to SiteOne with the offsetting entry for the redemption value adjustment recorded in Adjustment of non-controlling interest to redemption value in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Should an adjustment to the redemption value of the Redeemable non-controlling interest exceed the then current fair value of the Redeemable non-controlling interest, the Company will apply the two-class method and reduce the EPS numerator by the portion of the periodic adjustment that reflects a redemption in excess of fair value. During the year ended December 28, 2025, the Company recorded adjustments to the carrying amount of the Redeemable non-controlling interest of $3.6 million. There wereno adjustments recorded for the years ended December 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Refer to “Note 3. Acquisitions” for additional information on Devil Mountain.
Foreign currency translation: The functional currency for the Company’s Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar, which is the local currency. The assets and liabilities of these operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates at the end of the reporting period. The revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period. The gains or losses from these translations are recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss). Gains or losses recognized on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in Other income.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contact Liabilities from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2021-08”). The guidance requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and liabilities in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) rather than at fair value. The Company adopted ASU 2021-08 on a prospective basis when it became effective in the first quarter of the 2023 Fiscal Year. The adoption of ASU 2021-08 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”), as amended in January 2021 by ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope” (“ASU 2021-01”), and in December 2022 by ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848” (“ASU 2022-06”).
ASU 2020-04 provided optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria were met.
ASU 2021-01 amended the scope of the guidance in ASU 2020-04 on the facilitation of the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments in ASU 2021-01 clarified that “certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting can apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition”. These amendments applied only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The expedients are applicable to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into on or before December 31, 2022. The guidance was permitted to be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occurred.
ASU 2022-06 deferred the expiration date of the reference rate reform relief guidance provided by ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 to December 31, 2024.
The Company previously elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions would be based matches the index for the corresponding derivatives. On March 27, 2023, the Company amended its term loans to implement a forward-looking interest rate based on the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) in lieu of LIBOR. On March 31, 2023, the Company amended the terms of its interest rate swaps to implement SOFR in place of LIBOR. Concurrent with the amendments to its interest rate swaps, the Company elected certain of the optional expedients provided in Topic 848 that allowed the Company to preserve the past presentation of its derivatives without de-designating the existing hedging relationships. The adoption of Topic 848 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Refer to “Note 8. Long-Term Debt” for additional information regarding these amended agreements.
In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718)”(“ASU 2023-03”). This ASU amends or supersedes various SEC paragraphs in the Accounting Standards Codification to primarily reflect the issuance of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120. ASU 2023-03 provided clarifying guidance related to employee and non-employee share-based payment accounting, including guidance to companies issuing share-based awards shortly before announcing material, nonpublic information to consider such material nonpublic information to adjust observable market prices if the release of material nonpublic information is expected to affect the share price. ASU 2023-03 did not provide new guidance so there is no transition or effective date associated with it. Therefore, these updates were immediately effective. The adoption of ASU 2023-03 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, “Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method” (“ASU 2023-02”), which permits a reporting entity to account for its tax equity investments by using the proportional amortization method regardless of the program from which it receives income tax credits, if certain eligibility criteria are met. Under this guidance, an investor in a tax equity investment may utilize the proportional amortization method for qualifying investments on a tax credit program-by-program basis. The Company adopted ASU 2023-02 as of January 1, 2024. The adoption of ASU 2023-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 effective January 1, 2024 on a retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the requirements impact only segment reporting disclosures in the Notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2025-06 is required to be adopted in the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted.

Note 7. Employee Benefit and Stock Incentive Plans
The Company sponsors a defined contribution benefit plan for substantially all of its employees. Company contributions to the plan are based on a percentage of employee wages. The Company’s contributions to the plan were $17.4 million, $18.3 million, and $16.5 million for the years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The Company’s Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”), which became effective on April 28, 2016, provided for the grant of awards in the form of stock options that may be either incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options; stock purchase rights; restricted stock; restricted stock units (“RSUs”); performance shares; performance stock units (“PSUs”); stock appreciation rights; dividend equivalents; deferred stock units (“DSUs”); or other stock-based awards.
At the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company on May 13, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), the Company’s stockholders approved the Company’s 2020 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”), which replaced the 2016 Plan. The 2020 Plan reserves 2,155,280 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance under the 2020 Plan, consisting of 1,600,000 new shares plus 555,280 shares that were previously authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan and that, as of the Effective Date, were not subject to outstanding awards. No further grants of awards will be made under the 2016 Plan; however, outstanding awards granted under the 2016 Plan will remain outstanding and will continue to be administered in accordance with the terms of the 2016 Plan and the applicable award agreements. Any shares covered by an award, or any portion thereof, granted under the 2020 Plan, 2016 Plan, or Stock Incentive Plan that terminates, is forfeited, is repurchased, expires, or lapses for any reason will again be available for the grant of awards. Additionally, any shares tendered or withheld to satisfy the grant or exercise price or tax withholding obligations pursuant to any award under the 2020 Plan or 2016 Plan, will again be available for issuance. As of December 28, 2025, the aggregate number of shares that remain available to be issued under the 2020 Plan is 2,902,110.
Stock options and RSUs granted to employees vest over afour-year period at 25% per year. Stock options expire 10 years after the date of grant. PSUs granted to employees vest upon the achievement of the performance conditions, over athree-year period, measured by the growth of the Company’s pre-tax income plus amortization relative to a performance peer group, subject to adjustment based upon the application of a return on invested capital modifier.
The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Since the start of the 2023 Fiscal Year, expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. Prior to the 2023 Fiscal Year, expected volatilities were based on the historical equity volatility of comparable publicly traded companies. The change in estimate was due to the length of time the Company’s common stock had been publicly traded, which exceeded the expected term of the stock options at the start of the 2023 Fiscal Year. The expected term of stock options granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that stock options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rates utilized for periods throughout the contractual life of the stock options are based on the U.S. Treasury security yields at the time of grant. DSUs, RSUs, and PSUs have grant date fair values equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Share-based compensation expense is recognized in the financial statements based upon fair value on the date of grant. The compensation costs for stock options and RSUs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting periods. The Company recognizes compensation expense for PSUs when it is probable that the performance conditions will be achieved. The Company reassesses the probability of vesting at each reporting period and adjusts its compensation cost accordingly.
RSUs granted to non-employee directors vest at the earlier of the day preceding the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Company at which directors are elected or the first anniversary of the grant date, in each case, subject to the participant’s continued service as a director or other service provider (as applicable) from the grant date through such vesting date. Vested RSUs granted to non-employee directors settle into the Company’s common stock at the earlier to occur of the vesting date, termination of the director’s service on the Company’s Board of Directors, or until a change of control of the Company. Settlement may also be deferred at the director’s election until a specified date after the vesting date. DSUs granted to non-employee directors vest immediately but settlement is deferred until termination of the director’s service on the Company’s Board of Directors or until a change of control of the Company.
In February 2023, the Company’s Human Resources and Compensation Committee approved amendments to the applicable equity award agreements governing the terms of the stock options, RSUs, and PSUs granted under the 2020 Plan. Pursuant to such amendments, all unvested stock options and RSUs granted to an associate after the effective date of the amendments under an applicable award agreement, as amended, will fully vest following the end of their employment, generally infour equal annual installments and expire in 10 years for stock options, if such associate’s combined age (minimum of 55 years of age) and completed years of employment with the Company (minimum offive years of service) equals 65 or more (the “Rule of 65”). The amendments did not alter any equity award agreements outstanding on or prior to the effective date or the pro-rated vesting schedule with respect to PSUs, other than to change the definition of retirement to reflect the Rule of 65.

ABL Facility
SiteOne Landscape Supply Holding, LLC (“Landscape Holding”) and SiteOne Landscape Supply, LLC (“Landscape” and together with Landscape Holding, the “Borrowers”), each an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, are parties to the credit agreement dated December 23, 2013 (as amended by the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated June 13, 2014, the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated January 26, 2015, the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated February 13, 2015, the Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated October 20, 2015, the Omnibus Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated May 24, 2017, the Sixth Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated February 1, 2019, and the Seventh Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated July 22, 2022, the “ABL Credit Agreement”) providing for an asset-based credit facility (the “ABL Facility”) of up to $600.0 million, subject to borrowing base availability. The ABL Facility is secured by a first lien on the inventory and receivables of the Borrowers. The ABL Facility is guaranteed by SiteOne Landscape Supply Bidco, Inc. (“Bidco”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and each direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiary of Landscape. The availability under the ABL Facility was $577.8 million and $581.2 million as of December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively. Availability is determined using borrowing base calculations of eligible inventory and receivable balances less the current outstanding ABL Facility and letters of credit balances.
On July 22, 2022, the Company, through its subsidiaries, entered into the Seventh Amendment to the ABL Credit Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”). The Seventh Amendment amended and restated the ABL Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) increase the aggregate principal amount of the commitments to $600.0 million, (ii) extend the final scheduled maturity of the revolving credit facility to July 22, 2027, (iii) establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR rate, (iv) replace the administrative and collateral agent, and (v) make such other changes as agreed among the Borrowers and the lenders. Proceeds of the initial borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement on the closing date of the Seventh Amendment were used, among other things, (i) to repay in full the loans outstanding under the ABL Credit Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Seventh Amendment, (ii) to pay fees and expenses related to the Seventh Amendment and the ABL Credit Agreement, and (iii) for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Loans under the ABL Credit Agreement bear interest, at Landscape Holding’s option, at either (i) an adjusted Term SOFR rate equal to Term SOFR plus 0.10% (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus an applicable margin of 1.25% or 1.50% or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 0.25% or 0.50%, in each case depending on the average daily excess availability under the ABL Credit Agreement, and in each case subject to a 0.125% reduction when the Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) is less than 1.50:1.00. Additionally, undrawn commitments under the ABL Credit Agreement bear a commitment fee of 0.20% or 0.25%, depending on the average daily undrawn portion of the commitments under the ABL Credit Agreement.
There wasno outstanding balance under the ABL Facility as of December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024. The commitment fee on unfunded amounts was 0.25% as of December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024.
The ABL Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments if the outstanding loans and letters of credit exceed either the aggregate revolving commitments or the current borrowing base, in an amount equal to such excess. Additionally, the ABL Facility is subject to various covenants, including incurrence covenants that require the Company to meet minimum financial ratios, and additional borrowings and other corporate transactions may be limited by failure to meet these financial ratios. Failure to meet any of these covenants could result in an event of default under these agreements. If an event of default occurs, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under these agreements to be immediately due and payable, enforce their interest in collateral pledged under the agreement, or restrict the Borrowers’ ability to obtain additional borrowings under these agreements. The ABL Facility is secured by a first lien security interest over inventory and receivables and a second lien security interest over all other assets pledged as collateral.
The ABL Facility contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants are limited to the following: financial condition, fundamental changes, dividends and distributions, acquisitions, dispositions of collateral, payments and modifications of restricted indebtedness, negative pledge clauses, changes in line of business, currency, commodity and other hedging transactions, transactions with affiliates, investments, indebtedness, and liens. The negative covenants are subject to customary exceptions and also permit the payment of dividends and distributions, investments, permitted acquisitions, payments or redemptions of indebtedness under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, asset sales and mergers, consolidations, and sales of all or substantially all assets involving subsidiaries upon satisfaction of a “payment condition.” The payment condition is deemed satisfied upon 30-day specified excess availability and specified availability exceeding agreed upon thresholds and, in certain cases, the absence of specified events of default or known events of default and pro forma compliance with a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00. As of December 28, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all of the ABL Facility covenants.
Subsidiary ABL Facility
In connection with the Company’s acquisition of a controlling interest in Devil Mountain, on April 30, 2024, Devil Mountain entered into the Eighth Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Consent providing for an asset-based credit facility (the “Devil Mountain ABL Facility”) of up to $20.0 million, subject to borrowing base availability.
Loans under the Devil Mountain ABL Facility bear interest at either (i) an adjusted Term SOFR rate equal to Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.90% or 2.10% or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 0.80% or 1.00%, subject to a 0.20% reduction when the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Devil Mountain ABL Facility) is greater than 2.00:1.00. Additionally, undrawn commitments under the Devil Mountain ABL Facility bear a commitment fee of 0.25% on the actual undrawn portion of the commitments under the Devil Mountain ABL Facility based upon the daily utilization for the previous quarter. The Devil Mountain ABL Facility will mature on April 30, 2029. The interest rates on the outstanding balance under the Devil Mountain ABL Facility were 5.77272% and 6.65265% as of December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively.

Amendments of Term Loans
On July 2, 2024, the Company, through its subsidiaries, Landscape Holding and Landscape, entered into the Second Amendment that amends and restates the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 23, 2021.

The Tranche B Term Loans bear interest, at Landscape Holding’s option, at either (i) an adjusted Term SOFR rate plus an applicable margin equal to 1.75% (with a Term SOFR floor of 0.50%) or (ii) an alternative base rate plus an applicable margin equal to 0.75%. Voluntary prepayments of the Tranche B Term Loans are permitted at any time, in minimum principal amounts, without premium or penalty, unless in connection with certain repricing transactions that occur within the first six months after the date of effectiveness of the Second Amendment. The Tranche B Term Loans will mature on March 22, 2030.

There are also mandatory prepayments with the proceeds of certain asset sales and from the issuance of debt not permitted to be incurred under the Second Amendment. As of December 28, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all of the Second Amendment covenants.
On July 12, 2023, the Company, through its subsidiary, Landscape Holding, entered into the Increase Supplement by and between Landscape Holding, as borrower representative, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as increasing lender (the “Increasing Lender”), to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Increase Supplement provided for an additional $120.0 million of New Term Loans and made such other changes to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as agreed between Landscape Holding and the Increasing Lender. Proceeds of the term loans borrowed pursuant to the Increase Supplement were used, among other things, to (i) repay certain loans outstanding under the ABL Facility and (ii) pay fees and expenses related to the Increase Supplement.
On March 27, 2023, the Company, through its subsidiary, Landscape Holding, entered into the Sixth Amendment, which amended the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to implement a forward-looking interest rate based on SOFR in lieu of LIBOR. The New Term Loans bore interest, at Landscape Holding’s option, at either (i) an adjusted Term SOFR rate plus an applicable margin equal to 2.00% (with a Term SOFR floor of 0.50% on initial term loans and 0.00% on all other term loans) or (ii) an alternative base rate plus an applicable margin equal to 1.00%.
Interest Expense

Debt issuance costs and discounts are amortized as interest expense over the life of the debt. As a result of the Second Amendment, unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts in the amount of $1.8 million were written off to expense and new debt fees and issuance costs of $2.2 million were capitalized during the year ended December 29, 2024, in accordance with ASC 470-50, “Debt Modifications and Extinguishments”. As a result of the Increase Supplement, new debt fees and issuance costs of $1.8 million were capitalized during the year ended December 31, 2023. No gain or loss was recorded as it related to all participating lenders for the years ended December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024. Amortization expense related to debt issuance costs and discounts was $1.2 million, $1.3 million, and $1.2 million for the years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. The remaining $7.6 million, $6.0 million, and $2.9 million of interest expense is primarily related to interest attributable to finance leases, partially offset by interest income for the years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Hybrid Debt Instruments
During the first quarter of 2021, the Company reclassified $5.9 million from Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities to long-term debt with $1.5 million classified as Long-term debt, current portion and $4.4 million classified as Long-term debt, less current portion on its Consolidated Balance Sheets since the interest rate swap arrangements executed on March 23, 2021 were determined to be hybrid debt instruments containing embedded at-market swap derivatives. As of December 28, 2025, there wasno outstanding amount as the interest rate swaps were terminated upon maturity on March 23, 2025. As of December 29, 2024, the outstanding amount of approximately $0.4 million was classified as Long-term debt, current portion on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Interest Rate Swaps
The Company is subject to interest rate risk with regard to existing and future issuances of debt. The Company has, in the past, utilized interest rate swap contracts to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in variable interest rates for interest payments on existing debt. Prior to the termination of interest rate swaps 7, 8, and 9 upon maturity on March 23, 2025, the Company was party to interest rate swap contracts to convert the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate on the borrowings under the term loans.
On March 31, 2023, the Company amended the terms of its interest rate swaps to implement a forward-looking interest rate based on SOFR in place of LIBOR. Since the interest rate swaps were affected by reference rate reform, the Company applied the expedients and exceptions provided in Topic 848 to preserve the past presentation of its derivatives without de-designating the existing hedging relationships. All interest rate swap amendments were executed with the existing counterparties and did not change the notional amounts, maturity dates, or other critical terms of the hedging relationships. The interest rate swaps continue to be net settled on a quarterly basis with the counterparties for the difference between the fixed rates and the variable rates based upon three-month Term SOFR (subject to a floor of 0.23839% for interest rate swaps 7, 8, and 9) as applied to the notional amounts of each interest rate swap.
On March 23, 2021, the Company restructured the interest rate swap positions of its forward-starting interest rate swaps 4, 5, and 6 to extend the terms to maturity using a strategy referred to as a “blend and extend” in order to continue to manage its exposure to interest rate risk on borrowings under the term loans. Refer to “Term Loans” and “Amendments of the Term Loans” above for additional information regarding the Company’s term loans. As a result of these transactions, all existing agreements for forward-starting interest rate swaps 4, 5, and 6 at that time were amended and restructured as new agreements designated by the Company as interest rate swaps 7, 8, and 9 with the same counterparties. Each of the liability positions of the forward-starting interest rate swaps were blended into the amended interest rate swap agreements and the term of the hedged positions were extended to mature on March 23, 2025. Due to the size of the initial net investment amounts resulting from the termination values of the forward-starting interest rate swaps that were rolled into the interest rate swap arrangements, interest rate swaps 7, 8, and 9 were determined to be hybrid debt instruments containing embedded at-market interest rate swap derivatives. As a result, the Company bifurcated the derivative instruments from the debt host instruments for accounting purposes. Refer to “Hybrid Debt Instruments” above for additional information regarding the Company’s hybrid debt instruments.
The following table provides additional details related to the swap contracts, which were terminated upon maturity:
| Derivatives designated as hedging instruments | Inception Date | Amended Effective Date | Maturity Date | Notional Amount(in millions) | Fixed Interest Rate | Type of Hedge |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Interest rate swap 3 | December 17, 2018 | April 14, 2023 | January 14, 2024 | $34.0 | 2.73040% | Cash flow |
| Interest rate swap 7 | March 23, 2021 | March 31, 2023 | March 23, 2025 | $50.0 | 0.73300% | Cash flow |

To the extent the interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments were determined to be ineffective, the Company recognized the changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps in earnings. For the years ended December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, there was no ineffectiveness recognized in earnings.

Failure of the swap counterparties to make payments would have resulted in the loss of any potential benefit to the Company under the swap agreements. In this case, the Company would still be obligated to pay the variable interest payments underlying the debt agreements. Additionally, failure of the swap counterparties would not eliminate the Company’s obligation to continue to make payments under the existing swap agreements if it continues to be in a net pay position.
Note 9. Income Taxes

(a) For the year ended December 28, 2025 state taxes in California, Florida, Texas, New Jersey, and Massachusetts made up the majority (greater than 50%) of the tax effect in this category. For the year ended December 29, 2024, state taxes in California, Florida, and Texas made up the majority (greater than 50%) of the tax effect in this category. For the year ended December 31, 2023 state taxes in California, Florida, Massachusetts, and New Jersey made up the majority (greater than 50%) of the tax effect in this category.
(b) Includes excess tax benefits of $(0.7) million, $(0.6) million, and $(1.1) million for the years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are approximately $24.6 million as of December 28, 2025. Those earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested; accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal and state income taxes has been provided thereon. Upon repatriation of those earnings, in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company may be subject to U.S. income taxes, state and local income taxes, and withholding taxes payable to the foreign country. From a U.S. income tax perspective, however, the Company expects to claim a 100% dividends received deduction to offset any U.S. federal income tax liability on the undistributed earnings. Determination of the amount of unrecognized state and local tax liability is not practicable due to the complexities associated with its hypothetical calculation. Withholding taxes of approximately $1.2 million may be payable upon remittance of all previously unremitted earnings as of December 28, 2025.
Deferred income taxes reflect the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amount of the Company’s assets and liabilities, tax credits, and loss carryforwards. The significant components of deferred income taxes are as follows (in millions):
| December 28, 2025 | December 29, 2024 | |

| Other | (1.2) | (1.2) |
| Total deferred tax liabilities | (180.3) | (167.2) |
| Net deferred tax assets | $14.7 | $18.5 |
Deferred taxes are recorded as follows in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):
| December 28, 2025 | December 29, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| U.S. federal net deferred tax assets | $5.8 | $10.6 |
| U.S. state and local net deferred tax assets | 7.4 | 6.3 |
| Foreign net deferred tax assets | 1.5 | 1.6 |
| U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign net deferred tax assets | 14.7 | 18.5 |
| Net deferred tax assets | $14.7 | $18.5 |
The Company evaluates its deferred tax assets to determine the need for a valuation allowance, and to conclude whether it is more likely than not that those deferred income tax assets will be realized. Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to establish whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. On the basis of this evaluation, as of December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, a valuation allowance of $2.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, was recorded against deferred tax assets related primarily to state net operating loss carryforwards the Company believes are more likely than not to expire unused. Activity within the tax valuation allowance for the periods was as follows (in millions):
| For the yearDecember 30, 2024 to December 28, 2025 | For the yearJanuary 1, 2024 to December 29, 2024 | For the yearJanuary 2, 2023 to December 31, 2023 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginning balance | $1.5 | $2.7 | $3.4 |
| Increase in valuation allowance | 0.5 | — | — |
| Decrease in valuation allowance | — | (1.2) | (0.7) |
| Ending balance | $2.0 | $1.5 | $2.7 |
As of December 28, 2025, the Company had available tax-effected state net operating loss carryforwards of $2.0 million that generally expire at various dates through 2037 and 2044, respectively, if not utilized.
The Company recognizes the tax effects of uncertain tax positions only if such positions are more likely than not to be sustained based solely upon its technical merits at the reporting date. The Company refers to the difference between the tax benefit recognized in its financial statements and the tax benefit claimed in the income tax return as an unrecognized tax benefit. There wasno expense or liability recorded for unrecognized tax benefits for each period presented. The Company does not expect that the unrecognized tax benefit will materially change over the next 12 months.
The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties, if any, associated with uncertain tax positions is to recognize interest within Interest and other non-operating expenses, and to recognize penalties as a component of Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. For each period presented, the Company hadno accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, income tax in multiple state jurisdictions, and Canadian federal and provincial income tax with respect to its foreign subsidiaries. With limited exceptions, years prior to the 2022 Fiscal Year are no longer open to U.S. federal, state, and local examination by the taxing authorities.
Tax Equity Investment:
In November 2025 and 2024, the Company entered into agreements to become a limited partner in a tax-advantaged limited partnership investing in approved qualified renewable energy projects. The Company’s tax equity investments qualify for the application of PAM, under which, the Company amortized the initial cost of the investments, inclusive of the delayed equity contributions, in proportion to the income tax credits and other income tax benefits that were allocated to the Company. The net benefits of these investments, which are comprised of income tax credits and operating loss income tax benefits, net of investment amortization, were recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of Income tax expense. The carrying value of the tax equity investments was $3.0 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively, and was recorded in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The following table presents the amounts recognized under PAM for income tax credits and other income tax benefits, as well as amortization of investment, the net effect of which is presented as a component of Income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and Other assets in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, for the years ended December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024 (in millions):
| December 28, 2025 | December 29, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Tax credits and other benefits recognized | $(14.5) | $(11.4) |
| Amortization of investment | $13.3 | $9.5 |
During the years ended December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, the Company recorded an immaterial amount of non-income tax-related income associated with the tax equity investments. There wasno impairment of the Company’s tax equity investments during the years ended December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024.
Refer to “Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information regarding tax equity investments.
One Big Beautiful Bill Act
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted new tax legislation commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which included changes in tax laws that affected the Company’s deferred tax and income tax receivable as a result of reinstating the 100% bonus depreciation provision for assets placed in service after January 19, 2025, and restoring the full expensing of qualifying domestic research and development expenditures. The Company does not expect any material changes to the consolidated financial statements or ongoing tax rate as a result of this legislation.
Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is subject to certain claims and lawsuits that have been filed in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes the reasonably possible range of losses for these unresolved legal actions in addition to amounts accrued would not have a material effect on the Company’s assets and liabilities as of December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, and sales, expenses, changes in equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023.
Environmental Liability
As part of the sale by LESCO of its manufacturing assets in 2005, the Company retained the environmental liability associated with those assets. As part of the acquisition of a majority stake in the Company in December 2013 by CD&R from Deere, Deere agreed to pay the first $2.5 million of this liability and the Company’s exposure was capped at $2.4 million. In September 2025, the Company and Deere entered into agreements to settle and resolve the environmental liability arising from the LESCO sale. Under these agreements, a lump-sum settlement payment was made on September 30, 2025 to the purchaser of the LESCO manufacturing assets in exchange for a release of all related claims against both the Company and Deere, as well as the termination of certain indemnification obligations under the original LESCO sale agreement. The Company’s share of the settlement payment was $0.5 million.
During the year ended December 28, 2025, the Company recognized approximately $1.9 million in Other income, reflecting the release of its previously recorded environmental liability, net of the related indemnification asset. As of December 28, 2025, the Company hadno remaining environmental liability and the related indemnification asset was derecognized. As of December 29, 2024, the Company had recorded an undiscounted environmental liability of $3.9 million in Other long-term liabilities, representing the estimated future remediation costs, and an indemnification asset in Other assets of $1.5 million.
Letters of Credit
As of December 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, outstanding letters of credit were $22.2 million and $18.8 million, respectively. There wereno amounts drawn on the letters of credit for either period presented.
Purchase Commitments
The Company has entered into contracts with various farmers that obligate the Company to purchase certain nursery products and grass seeds. These contracts run through fiscal year 2028. The total future obligation was $46.7 million as of December 28, 2025 with expected payments of $30.7 million, $14.1 million, and $1.9 million during fiscal years 2026, 2027, and 2028, respectively. The Company’s purchases were $69.0 million, $70.1 million, and $73.9 million for the years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company also contracted with a supplier beginning in 2020 and subsequently amended the contract in 2021 to purchase an aggregate minimum of 18,000 tons of fertilizer annually for 10 years or until the total purchase commitment of 180,000 tons of product is fulfilled. If the Company does not meet minimum volume commitments, the Company must pay a $195 per tonnage shortfall. As of December 28, 2025, the total remaining amount contracted with this supplier was $10.2 million. Other supplier contracts total $19.0 million for arrangements that run through fiscal year 2027. In addition, the Company has entered into various service commitments, of which, the maximum total future obligation was $52.0 million as of December 28, 2025.
Note 11. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes basic EPS by dividing Net income (loss) attributable to SiteOne by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Company includes vested RSUs, DSUs, and PSUs that have not been settled in common shares in the basic weighted average number of common shares calculation. The Company’s computation of diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, which include in-the-money outstanding stock options and RSUs. PSUs are excluded from the calculation of potential dilutive common shares until the performance conditions have been achieved on the basis of the assumption that the end of the reporting period was the end of the contingency period, if such issuable shares are dilutive. Using the treasury stock method, the effect of dilutive securities includes the additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding based on the assumption that these potentially dilutive securities had been issued. The treasury stock method assumes proceeds from the exercise price of stock options and the unamortized compensation expense of RSUs and stock options are used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the period, thus reducing the dilutive effect. RSUs and stock options with assumed proceeds per unit above the Company’s average share price for the periods presented are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because the effect is anti-dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of the weighted average number of diluted common shares outstanding for the years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023:
| For the yearDecember 30, 2024 to December 28, 2025 | For the yearJanuary 1, 2024 to December 29, 2024 | For the yearJanuary 2, 2023 to December 31, 2023 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shares used in the computation of basic earnings per share | 44,831,332 | 45,244,491 | 45,112,977 |
| Effect of dilutive securities: | |||
| Stock options | 207,106 | 340,190 | 492,075 |
| RSUs and PSUs | 30,085 | 37,232 | 71,686 |
| DSUs | 14,873 | 13,164 | 9,530 |
| Shares used in the computation of diluted earnings per share | 45,083,396 | 45,635,077 | 45,686,268 |
The diluted earnings per common share calculation for the years ended December 28, 2025, December 29, 2024, and December 31, 2023 excluded the effect of 197,804,189,864, and 182,467 potential shares of common stock, respectively, because the assumed exercises of a portion of the Company’s employee stock options and RSUs were anti-dilutive.
Note 12. Segment Information
The Company operates asone operating segment. The Company’s consolidated results represent the results of itsone operating segment based on how the Company’s CODM, its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, views the business for purposes of evaluating performance and making operating decisions.
The CODM reviews financial information on a consolidated basis and uses the segment performance measure of consolidated Net income to assess financial performance of the Company and determine how to allocate resources of the Company as a whole. Consolidated Net income is used by the CODM to make key operating decisions, such as the determination of the rate at which the Company seeks to grow consolidated Net income and the allocation of budgets between the significant segment expenses within Cost of goods sold and Selling, general and administrative expenses. The CODM does not regularly review asset information and therefore, the Company does not report asset information beyond what is disclosed in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The following table presents selected financial information with respect to the Company’s single operating segment (in millions):
| For the yearDecember 30, 2024 to December 28, 2025 | For the yearJanuary 1, 2024 to December 29, 2024 | For the yearJanuary 2, 2023 to December 31, 2023 | |
