Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements present the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Core & Main and its subsidiaries, which includes the consolidated financial statements of Holdings and its consolidated subsidiary, Core & Main LP, as the legal entity that conducts the operations of the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company records non-controlling interests related to Partnership Interests held by Management Feeder in Holdings.

In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information for the interim periods presented include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows, which include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements may not be the same as those for the full year. The January 28, 2024 condensed consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2024 included in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year is a 52- or 53-week period ending on the Sunday nearest to January 31 st. Quarters within the fiscal year include 13-week periods, unless a fiscal year includes a 53 rd week, in which case the fourth quarter of the fiscal year will be a 14-week period. Each of the three months ended July 28, 2024 and three months ended July 30, 2023 included 13 weeks and each of the six months ended July 28, 2024 and six months ended July 30, 2023 included 26 weeks. The current fiscal year ending February 2, 2025 (“fiscal 2024”) will include 53 weeks.

Estimates

Management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of certain assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in preparing the elements of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these policies which have had a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes during the three and six months ended July 28, 2024.

2)RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Segment Reporting- In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). The new guidance expands reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of (i) significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the segment’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within the segment measure of profit or loss, (ii) an amount and description of its composition for other segment items to reconcile to segment profit or loss, and (iii) the title and position of the Company’s CODM. 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. ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 is expected to result in additional disclosures, but not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Income Tax Disclosures- In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). The new guidance requires, on an annual basis, disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation and disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 is expected to result in additional disclosures, but not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The following table represents the preliminary allocation of the transaction price to the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Fiscal 2024 Acquisitions and final allocation of the transaction price to the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Fiscal 2023 Acquisitions. The allocations are preliminary for items including review of working capital balances and the completion of intangible asset valuations.

(1) Amounts include the preliminary purchase price allocation of Dana Kepner net assets of $257 million to goodwill, $184 million to intangible assets, $92 million to net working capital, $29 million to cash and $8 million to fixed assets. Additionally, includes a deferred income tax liability of $33 million for the Dana Kepner acquisition.

The net outflow of cash in respect of the purchase of businesses is as follows:

In the above transactions, to the extent applicable, the excess of purchase price over net tangible and intangible assets acquired resulted in goodwill, which represents the assembled workforce and anticipated long-term growth in new markets, customers and products. Goodwill of $195 million and $3 million associated with the Fiscal 2024 Acquisitions and Fiscal 2023 Acquisitions, respectively, are fully deductible by the Company for U.S. income tax purposes.

Intangible Assets

For the Fiscal 2024 Acquisitions and Fiscal 2023 Acquisitions, the intangible assets acquired consist of customer relationships and trademarks.

The customer relationship intangible assets represent the value associated with those customer relationships in place at the date of each transaction included in the Fiscal 2024 Acquisitions and Fiscal 2023 Acquisitions. The Company valued the customer relationships using an excess earnings method including various inputs such as customer attrition rate, revenue growth rate, gross margin percentage and discount rate. Cash flows associated with the existing relationships are expected to diminish over time due to customer turnover. The Company reflected this expected diminishing cash flow through the utilization of an annual customer attrition rate assumption and in its method of amortization.

The trademark intangible asset represents the value associated with the brand names in place at the date of the applicable closing.

A summary of the intangible asset acquired and assumptions utilized in the valuation for the Fiscal 2024 Acquisitions and Fiscal 2023 Acquisitions is as follows:

(1) Customer relationships acquired and assumptions utilized in the valuation for the Dana Kepner acquisition were as follows: $181 million customer relationship intangible asset,10 years amortization period,13.0% discount rate and 12.5% attrition rate.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The following pro forma information presents a summary of the results of operations for the periods indicated as if the Dana Kepner acquisition had been completed as of January 30, 2023. The pro forma financial information is based on the historical financial information for the Company and Dana Kepner, along with certain pro forma adjustments. These pro forma adjustments consist primarily of:

•increased amortization and depreciation expense related to the intangible assets and fixed assets acquired, respectively, in the Dana Kepner acquisition;

•increased interest expense to reflect the borrowings under the Senior Term Loan Credit Facility including the interest and amortization of deferred financing costs;

•reclassification of direct acquisition transaction costs, retention bonuses and inventory fair value adjustments from the period incurred to periods these expenses would have been recognized given the assumed transaction date identified above; and

•the related income tax effects of the aforementioned adjustments to the provision for income taxes for Core & Main.

The following pro forma information has been prepared for comparative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the Dana Kepner acquisition occurred on the assumed date, nor is it necessarily an indication of future operating results. In addition, the pro forma information does not reflect the cost of any integration activities, benefits from any synergies that may be derived from the Dana Kepner acquisition or revenue growth that may be anticipated.

As a result of integration of the Dana Kepner acquisition with existing operations of the Company it is impracticable to identify the discrete financial performance associated with the Dana Kepner acquisition. As such, the Company has not presented the post-acquisition net sales and net income for the Dana Kepner acquisition.

5)GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

The carrying amount of the Company’s goodwill included in its Balance Sheets is as follows:

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:

Goodwill acquired during the six months ended July 28, 2024 was related to the Fiscal 2024 Acquisitions, as further described in Note 4.

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. The Company does not amortize goodwill, but does assess the recoverability of goodwill on an annual basis during the fourth quarter. If an event occurs or circumstances change that would “more likely than not” reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value, an interim impairment test would be performed between annual tests.

Intangible Assets

The Company’s intangible assets included in its Balance Sheets consist of the following:

Amortization expense related to intangible assets was as follows:

The estimated aggregate amortization expense on intangible assets owned by the Company for the remainder of fiscal 2024 and the next four full fiscal years is expected to be as follows:

The Company’s debt obligations as of July 28, 2024 include the following debt agreements:

Senior Term Loan Credit Facility

On July 27, 2021, Core & Main LP entered into a Senior Term Loan Credit Facility (as defined herein) under which it can incur tranches of indebtedness. On May 21, 2024, Core & Main LP amended the terms of the $1,500 million senior term loan (as amended, the “2028 Senior Term Loan”), in order to reduce the effective applicable margin from 2.60% to 2.00%. The 2028 Senior Term Loan principal balance did not change, still matures on July 27, 2028 and requires quarterly principal payments on the last business day of each fiscal quarter in an amount equal to approximately 0.25% of the original principal amount. The remaining balance is payable upon final maturity of the 2028 Senior Term Loan on July 27, 2028. The 2028 Senior Term Loan bears interest at a rate equal to (i) term secured overnight financing rate (“Term SOFR”) plus, in each case, an effective applicable margin of 2.00% or (ii) the base rate, which will be the highest of (x) the corporate base rate established by the administrative agent as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New York City from time to time, (y) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum and (z) one-month Term SOFR (adjusted for maximum reserves) plus 1.00% per annum, plus, in each case, an applicable margin of 1.50%. The 2028 Senior Term Loan is subject to a Term SOFR “floor” of 0.00%. The weighted average interest rate, excluding the effect of the interest rate swap, of Core & Main LP’s outstanding borrowings under the 2028 Senior Term Loan as of July 28, 2024 was 7.34%. See further discussion of the interest rate swap below. Based on quotes from financial institutions (i.e., level 2 of the fair value hierarchy), the fair value of the 2028 Senior Term Loan was $1,459 millionas of July 28, 2024.

On February 9, 2024, Core & Main LP entered into an additional $750 million senior term loan, which matures on February 9, 2031 (the “2031 Senior Term Loan” and, together with the 2028 Senior Term Loan, the “Senior Term Loan Credit Facility”). The 2031 Senior Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments, payable on the last business day of each fiscal quarter in an amount equal to approximately 0.25% of the original principal amount of the 2031 Senior Term Loan. The remaining balance is payable upon final maturity of the 2031 Senior Term Loan on February 9, 2031. The 2031 Senior Term Loan bears interest at a rate equal to (i) Term SOFR plus, in each case, an applicable margin of 2.25% or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 1.25%. The 2031 Senior Term Loan is subject to a Term SOFR “floor” of 0.00%. The weighted average interest rate, excluding the effect of the interest rate swap, of Core & Main LP’s outstanding borrowings under the 2031 Senior Term Loan as of July 28, 2024 was 7.59%. See further discussion of the interest rate swap below. Based on quotes from financial institutions (i.e., level 2 of the fair value hierarchy), the fair value of the 2031 Senior Term Loanwas $750 millionas of July 28, 2024.

Asset-Based Credit Facility

On February 9, 2024, Core & Main LP amended the terms of the credit agreement governing its senior asset-based revolving credit facility (as amended, the “Senior ABL Credit Facility”) in order to, among other things, extend the maturity from July 27, 2026 to February 9, 2029 and amend the credit agreement governing the Senior ABL Credit Facility to the extent necessary or appropriate to reflect the extension of the amended maturity. The Senior ABL Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of up to $1,250 million, subject to borrowing base availability. Borrowings under the Senior ABL Credit Facility bear interest at either a Term SOFR rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%, or an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75%, depending on the borrowing capacity under the Senior ABL Credit Facility. Additionally, Core & Main LP pays a fee of 0.25% on unfunded commitments under the Senior ABL Credit Facility. As of July 28, 2024 and January 28, 2024 there were $250 million and $430 million amounts outstanding, respectively, under the Senior ABL Credit Facility with a weighted average interest rate of 6.58% as of July 28, 2024.

The aforementioned debt agreements include customary affirmative and negative covenants, which include, among other things, restrictions on Core & Main LP’s ability to make distributions, pay dividends, create liens, incur additional indebtedness, make investments, dispose of assets and merge or consolidate with any other person. The Senior Term Loan Credit Facility may require accelerated repayment based upon cash flows generated in excess of operating and investing requirements when the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the agreement governing the Senior Term Loan Credit Facility) is greater than or equal to 3.25. In addition, the Senior ABL Credit Facility requires Core & Main LP to comply with a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of greater than or equal to 1.00 when availability under the Senior ABL Credit Facility is less than 10.0% of the lesser of (i) the then applicable borrowing base or (ii) the then aggregate effective commitments. The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of July 28, 2024.

Substantially all of Core & Main LP’s assets are pledged as collateral for the Senior Term Loan Credit Facility and the Senior ABL Credit Facility.

The aggregate amount of debt payments for the remainder of fiscal 2024 and the next four full fiscal years are as follows:

Interest Rate Swaps

Core & Main LP entered into an instrument in which it makes payments to a third party based upon a fixed interest rate of 0.693% and receives payments based upon the one-month Term SOFR rate. The interest rate swap has a notional amount of $800 million as of July 28, 2024. The notional amount decreases to $700 million on July 27, 2025 through the instrument maturity on July 27, 2026. This instrument is intended to reduce the Company's exposure to variable interest rates under the Senior Term Loan Credit Facility. As of July 28, 2024, this instrument resulted in an effective fixed rate of 2.693%, based upon the 0.693% fixed rate plus an effective applicable margin of 2.00%.

On February 12, 2024, Core & Main LP entered into an additional instrument pursuant to which it will make payments to a third party based upon a fixed interest rate of 3.913% and receive payments based upon the one-month Term SOFR rate. The interest rate swap has a starting notional amount of $750 million that increases to $1,500 million on July 27, 2026 through the instrument maturity on July 27, 2028. The instrument is intended to reduce the Company’s exposure to variable interest rates under the Senior Term Loan Credit Facility. As of July 28, 2024, this instrument resulted in an effective fixed rate of 6.163%, based upon the 3.913% fixed rate plus an effective applicable margin of 2.25%.

The fair value of these cash flow interest rate swaps was a $54 million asset and a $7 million liability as of July 28, 2024, which is included within other assets and other current liabilities, respectively, in the Balance Sheet. The aggregate fair value of these cash flow interest rate swaps was a $67 million asset as of January 28, 2024, which is included within other assets in the Balance Sheet.

The cash flows related to settlement of the interest rate swaps are classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows based on the nature of the underlying hedged items. Fair value is based upon the present value of future cash flows under the terms of the contract and observable market inputs (level 2). Significant inputs used in determining fair value include forward-looking one-month Term SOFR rates and the discount rate applied to projected cash flows.

As of July 28, 2024, the Company estimates $39 million of the cash flow interest rate swap gains will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings over the next 12 months.

7)INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended July 28, 2024 and July 30, 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate was 25.0% and 19.6%, respectively. For the six months ended July 28, 2024 and July 30, 2023, the Company's effective tax rate was 24.8% and 19.3%, respectively. The variation between the Company's estimated effective tax rate and the U.S. and state statutory rates for the three and six months ended July 30, 2023 is primarily due to the portion of the Company's earnings attributable to non-controlling interests. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended July 28, 2024 increased primarily due to a substantial decrease in the non-controlling interest ownership that increased the allocation of net income to taxable entities.

Tax Receivable Agreements

The Company is party to a tax receivable agreement with certain stockholders affiliated with CD&R that transferred all of their Partnership Interests at the time of the initial public offering (the “Former Limited Partners Tax Receivable Agreement”) and a tax receivable agreement with certain stockholders affiliated with CD&R and Management Feeder that continued to own Partnership Interests beyond the time of the initial public offering (the “Continuing Limited Partners Tax Receivable Agreement”) (collectively, the “Tax Receivable Agreements”). The Company has generated tax attributes, and expects to generate additional tax attributes with future exchanges of Partnership Interests, that will reduce amounts that it would otherwise pay in the future to various tax authorities. The Tax Receivable Agreements provide payments to the parties subject to the Tax Receivable Agreements, or their permitted transferees, of 85% of the tax benefits realized by the Company, or in some circumstances are deemed to be realized.

The Company recorded payables to related parties pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreements of $720 million and $717 million as of July 28, 2024 and January 28, 2024, respectively. Payments under the Tax Receivable Agreements within the next 12 months are expected to be $19 million, whichis included within other current liabilities in the Balance Sheet.

The actual amount and timing of any payments under the Tax Receivable Agreements will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of exchanges by the holders of Partnership Interests, the amount of gain recognized by such holders of Partnership Interests, the amount and timing of the taxable income the Company generates in the future and the federal tax rates then applicable. Assuming (i) that Management Feeder exchanged all of its remaining Partnership Interests at $53.53 per share of our Class A common stock (the closing stock price on July 26, 2024), (ii) no material changes in relevant tax law, (iii) a constant corporate tax rate of 25.1%, which represents a pro forma tax rate that includes a provision for U.S. federal income taxes and assumes the highest statutory rate apportioned to each state and local jurisdiction and (iv) that the Company earns sufficient taxable income in each year to realize on a current basis all tax benefits, the Company would recognize an additional deferred tax asset (subject to offset with existing deferred tax liabilities) of approximately $135 million and a liability of approximately $115 million, payable over the life of the Continuing Limited Partners Tax Receivable Agreement. The full exchange will also decrease Core & Main's aforementioned deferred tax asset associated with its investment in Holdings by $6 million. The foregoing amounts are estimates and subject to change.

8)SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL STATEMENT INFORMATION

Receivables

Receivables consisted of the following:

Accrued Compensation and Benefits

9)NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS

Core & Main is the general partner of Holdings and operates and controls all of the business and affairs of Holdings and, through Holdings and its subsidiaries, conducts the Company's business. Accordingly, Core & Main consolidates the consolidated financial statements of Holdings and attributes a portion of net income and equity of Holdings to non-controlling interests related to the vested Partnership Interests not held by the Company. Income or loss is attributed to the non-controlling interests based on the weighted average percentage of Partnership Interests held by Management Feeder, excluding unvested Partnership Interests held, relative to all Partnership Interests of Holdings during the period. Holdings equity is attributed to non-controlling interests based on the Partnership Interests not held by the Company, excluding unvested Partnership Interests, relative to all Partnership Interests as of the balance sheet date. The non-controlling interests’ ownership percentage may fluctuate over time as Partnership Interests are exchanged, together with the retirement of a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock, for shares of Class A common stock and Partnership Interests held by Management Feeder vest. The following table summarizes the ownership of Partnership Interests of Holdings (excluding unvested Partnership Interests held by Management Feeder):

10)BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended July 28, 2024 and July 30, 2023.

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Core & Main for the period by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the same period. Shares of Class A common stock issued or redeemed during the period were weighted for the portion of the period in which the shares of Class A common stock were outstanding. The Company did not apply the two-class method because shares of Class B common stock do not participate in earnings or losses of Core & Main. As a result, the shares of Class B common stock are not considered participating securities and are not included in the weighted average shares outstanding for purposes of earnings per share. Net income allocated to holders of non-controlling interests was excluded from net income available to the Class A common stock. There wereno preferred dividends andno shares of preferred stock outstanding for the period.

The diluted earnings per share calculation includes the basic weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding plus the dilutive impact of potential outstanding shares of Class A common stock that would be issued upon exchange of Partnership Interests, together with the retirement of a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock, under the if-converted method, if dilutive. The treasury stock method is applied to outstanding awards, including unvested Partnership Interests and outstanding stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and stock options.

11)RELATED PARTIES

The Company has entered into the Tax Receivable Agreements and the Exchange Agreement, dated as of July 22, 2021 (as amended, the “Exchange Agreement”) with related parties, that are discussed in Note 14 to the audited consolidated financial statements in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these related party agreements.

12)SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
