NOTES TO UNAUDITED

CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements (the “Financial Statements”) include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and partnerships, and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the Financial Statements do not include all of the information and footnotes normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

In our opinion, the Financial Statements contain all material adjustments necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements, and footnotes thereto, included in our Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2017.

Seasonality has a significant impact on our working capital from March to August which historically results in negative or modest cash flows from operations in our first and second quarters. Conversely, we experience a substantial decrease in working capital from September to February which typically results in significant cash flow from operations in our third and fourth quarters. For comparative purposes, we have included the July 1, 2017 balances in the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed balance sheets.

We maintain money market, mutual funds, bonds, and/or stocks in our non-qualified deferred compensation plan and our wholly owned licensed captive insurance company. These funds are valued at prices quoted in an active exchange market and are included in “Cash and Cash Equivalents”, “Investments”, “Restricted Cash”, and “Restricted Investments”. We have elected not to apply the fair value option under ASC 825, Financial Instruments, to any of our financial instruments except for those expressly required by U.S. GAAP.

During the second quarter of 2018, we purchased a private real estate income trust which will be valued as a Level 3 asset.  We did not maintain any Level 3 assets or liabilities at July 1, 2017.

In 2017, our wholly-owned captive, Ardellis Insurance Ltd. (“Ardellis”) transferred $4.1 million in fixed income securities from its Investment Account and purchased an additional $3.8 million in fixed income securities which are held in a newly formed collateral trust account in line with regulatory requirements in the State of Michigan to allow Ardellis to act as an admitted carrier in the State.  These funds are intended to safeguard the insureds of the Michigan Branch of Ardellis.  The funds are classified as “Restricted Investments”.

In accordance with our investment policy, our wholly-owned captive, Ardellis Insurance Ltd. (“Ardellis”), maintains an investment portfolio, totaling $24.8 million as of June 30, 2018, consisting of domestic and international stocks, hedge funds, and fixed income bonds.

Our fixed income investments consist of a blend of US Government and Agency bonds and investment grade corporate bonds with varying maturities.  Our equity investments consist of small, mid, and large cap growth and value funds, as well as international equity. Our hedge funds consist of the private real estate income trust which is valued as a Level 3 asset.  The net pre-tax effected unrealized gain was $0.5 million. Carrying amounts above are recorded in the investments and restricted investments line items within the balance sheet as of June 30, 2018. During the first six months of 2018, Ardellis’ investments reported a net realized gain of $514 thousand, which was recorded in interest income on the statement of earnings.

 

 

 

 

C.       REVENUE RECOGNITION

On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 (Accounting Standard Codification 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers.  Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and requires the recognition of revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the considerations to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.  The ASU requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. The Company has adopted the requirements of the new standard as of January 1, 2018, and utilized the modified retrospective method of transition which was applied to all contracts.

The Company completed the new revenue recognition standard assessment and determined that there was no material impact to our consolidated financial statements, aside from additional required disclosures, thus no needed adjustment to the opening retained earnings for the annual reporting period.

Within the three markets (retail, industrial, and construction) that the Company operates, there are a variety of written and oral contracts that are utilized to generate revenue from the sale of wood, wood composite and other products.  The transaction price is stated at the purchase order level, which includes shipping and/or freight costs and any applicable governmental authority taxes.  The majority of our contracts have a single performance obligation concentrated around the delivery of goods to the carrier, Free On Board (FOB) shipping point.  Therefore, revenue is recognized when this performance obligation is satisfied.  Generally, title and control passes at the time of shipment. In certain circumstances, the customer takes title when the shipment arrives at the destination. However, our shipping process is typically completed the same day.

Certain customer products that we provide require installation by the Company or a 3rd party.  Installation revenue is recognized upon completion, which is typically 2-3 days after receipt.  If it is determined to utilize a 3rd party for installation, the party will act as an agent to the Company until completion of the installation.  Installation revenue represents an immaterial share of the Company’s total sales.

The Company utilizes rebates, credits, discounts and/or cash-based incentives with certain customers which are accounted for as variable consideration. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be provided to customers and reduce revenues recognized. We believe that there will not be significant changes to our estimates of variable consideration.  The allocation of these costs are applied at the invoice level and recognized in conjunction with revenue.  Additionally, the volume returns and refunds are estimated on a historical and expected basis which is a reduction of revenue recognized.

Earnings on construction contracts are reflected in operations using over time accounting, under either cost to cost or units of delivery methods, depending on the nature of the business at individual operations, which is in accordance with ASC 606 as revenue is recognized when certain performance obligations are performed. Under over time accounting using the cost to cost method, revenues and related earnings on construction contracts are measured by the relationships of actual costs incurred related to the total estimated costs. Under over time accounting using the units of delivery method, revenues and related earnings on construction contracts are measured by the relationships of actual units produced related to the total number of units. Revisions in earnings estimates on the construction contracts are recorded in the accounting period in which the basis for such revisions becomes known. Projected losses on individual contracts are charged to operations in their entirety when such losses become apparent. 

Our construction contracts are generally entered into with a fixed price and completion of the projects can range from 6 to 18 months in duration. Therefore, our operating results are impacted by, among many other things, labor rates and commodity costs. During the year, we update our estimated costs to complete our projects using current labor and commodity costs and recognize losses to the extent that they exist.

On October 17, 2017, our Board of Directors declared a three-for-one stock split effected in the form of a stock dividend.  The record date of the stock split was on October 31, 2017, and the eventual stock distribution to shareholders occurred on November 14, 2017.  As a result of the stock split, all historical per share data and number of shares outstanding presented in future financial statements are retroactively adjusted.

E.       COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES, AND GUARANTEES

We are self-insured for environmental impairment liability, including certain liabilities which are insured through a wholly owned subsidiary, Ardellis Insurance Ltd., a licensed captive insurance company.

We own and operate a number of facilities throughout the United States that chemically treat lumber products. In connection with the ownership and operation of these and other real properties, and the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances, we may, under various federal, state, and local environmental laws, ordinances, and regulations, be potentially liable for removal and remediation costs, as well as other potential costs, damages, and expenses. Environmental reserves, calculated with no discount rate, have been established to cover remediation activities at wood preservation facilities in Stockertown, PA; Elizabeth City, NC; and Auburndale, FL. In addition, a reserve was established for our facility in Thornton, CA to remove certain lead containing materials which existed on the property at the time of purchase.

On a consolidated basis, we have reserved approximately $2.5 million and $3.6 million on June 30, 2018, and July 1, 2017, respectively, representing the estimated costs to complete future remediation efforts. These amounts have not been reduced by an insurance receivable.

Many of our wood treating operations utilize “Subpart W” drip pads, defined as hazardous waste management units by the Environmental Protection Agency. The rules regulating drip pads require that a pad be “closed” at the point that it is no longer intended to be used for wood treating operations or to manage hazardous waste. Closure

involves identification and disposal of contaminants which are required to be removed from the facility. The cost of closure is dependent upon a number of factors including, but not limited to, identification and removal of contaminants, cleanup standards that vary from state to state, and the time period over which the cleanup would be completed. Based on our present knowledge of existing circumstances, it is considered probable that these costs will approximate $0.2 million. As a result, this amount is recorded in other long-term liabilities on June 30, 2018.

In February 2014, one of our operations was served with a federal grand jury subpoena from the Southern District of New York. The subpoena was issued in connection with an investigation being conducted by the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York. The subpoena requested documents relating to a developer and construction projects for which our operation had provided materials and labor. Following receipt of the subpoena, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors retained outside counsel to conduct an internal investigation and respond to the subpoena. The Company cooperated in all respects with the US Attorney’s Office, complied with this subpoena and voluntarily provided additional information. As a result of the internal investigation, in 2014, two Company employees were terminated for violating the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. In May 2015, those ex-employees were indicted by the grand jury. In April 2016, one of the two former employees pled guilty to four of the charges included in the indictment. In May 2016, the other former employee was found guilty by a jury on four of the charges included in the indictment. The Company has not been named as a target and continues to cooperate with the US Attorney’s Office in this matter.  Based upon prior communications with the US Attorney’s Office, we do not believe that the resolution of this matter will have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or the results of our operations.

In addition, on June 30, 2018, we were parties either as plaintiff or defendant to a number of lawsuits and claims arising through the normal course of our business. In the opinion of management, our consolidated financial statements will not be materially affected by the outcome of these contingencies and claims.

On June 30, 2018, we had outstanding purchase commitments on commenced capital projects of approximately $23.4 million.

We provide a variety of warranties for products we manufacture. Historically, warranty claims have not been material. We distribute products manufactured by other companies, some of which are no longer in business. While we do not warrant these products, we have received claims as a distributor of these products when the manufacturer no longer exists or has the ability to pay. Historically, these costs have not had a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

As part of our operations, we supply building materials and labor to site-built construction projects or we jointly bid on contracts with framing companies for such projects. In some instances, we are required to post payment and performance bonds to insure the project owner that the products and installation services are completed in accordance with our contractual obligations. We have agreed to indemnify the surety for claims made against the bonds. As of June 30, 2018, we had approximately $15.8 million outstanding payment and performance bonds for open projects. We had approximately $1.7 million in payment and performance bonds outstanding for completed projects which are still under warranty.

On June 30, 2018, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $30.4 million, primarily related to certain insurance contracts and industrial development revenue bonds described further below.

In lieu of cash deposits, we provide irrevocable letters of credit in favor of our insurers to guarantee our performance under certain insurance contracts. We currently have irrevocable letters of credit outstanding totaling approximately $20.6 million for these types of insurance arrangements. We have reserves recorded on our balance sheet, in accrued liabilities, that reflect our expected future liabilities under these insurance arrangements.

We are required to provide irrevocable letters of credit in favor of the bond trustees for all industrial development revenue bonds that have been issued. These letters of credit guarantee principal and interest payments to the bondholders. We currently have irrevocable letters of credit outstanding totaling approximately $9.8 million related to our outstanding industrial development revenue bonds. These letters of credit have varying terms but may be renewed at the option of the issuing banks.

Certain wholly owned domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the indebtedness of Universal Forest Products, Inc. in certain debt agreements, including the Series 2012 Senior Notes and our revolving credit facility. The maximum exposure of these guarantees is limited to the indebtedness outstanding under these debt arrangements and this exposure will expire concurrent with the expiration of the debt agreements.

We did not enter into any new guarantee arrangements during the second quarter of 2018 which would require us to recognize a liability on our balance sheet.

G.       SEGMENT REPORTING

ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), defines operating segments as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The Company operates manufacturing, treating and distribution facilities throughout North America, but primarily in the United States. The Company manages the operations of its individual locations primarily through a geographic reporting structure under which each location is included in a region and regions are included in our North, South, West, and International divisions. The exceptions to this geographic reporting and management structure are (a) the Company’s Alternative Materials Division, which offers a portfolio of non-wood products

14


 

Table of Contents

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

 

and distributes those products nation-wide (b) the Company’s distribution unit (referred to as UFPD) which distributes a variety of products to the manufactured housing industry nation-wide and is accounted for as a reporting unit within the North segment, and (c) the idX division, which designs, produces, and installs customized in-store environments, for customers world-wide.

With respect to the facilities in the north, south, and west segments, these facilities generally supply the three markets the Company serves nationally - Retail, Industrial, and Construction. Also, substantially all of our facilities support customers in the immediate geographical region surrounding the facility.

Our Alternative Materials, International and idX division have been included in the “All Other” column of the table below. The “Corporate” column includes unallocated administrative costs and certain incentive compensation expense.

H.       INCOME TAXES

Effective tax rates differ from statutory federal income tax rates, primarily due to provisions for state and local income taxes and permanent tax differences.  Our effective tax rate was 22.9% in the second quarter of 2018 compared to 34.0% for same period in 2017.  Our effective tax rate was 22.6% in the first six months of 2018 compared to 33.7% for the same period in 2017.  This decrease was due primarily to changes resulting from the Tax Act, which reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018, along with eliminating the domestic manufacturing deduction.  Pursuant to SAB 118, the accounting for the Tax Act was incomplete at December 30, 2017 and is still incomplete as of June 30, 2018.  As noted at year-end, however, we were able to reasonably estimate certain effects and, therefore, recorded provisional adjustments associated with the deemed repatriation transition tax, a provisional decrease for certain of our Deferred Tax Assets (DTAs) and Deferred Tax Liabilities (DTLs) related to the reduced corporate tax rate, and a provisional benefit related to our intent to fully expense all qualifying expenditures under the new cost recovery rules.

Table of Contents

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

 

We have not made any additional measurement-period adjustments related to these items during the quarter.  However, we are continuing to gather additional information to complete our accounting for these items and expect to complete our accounting within the prescribed measurement period.

 

As noted at year-end, we were not yet able to reasonably estimate the effects for Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI).  Therefore, no provisional adjustment was recorded.

 

Because of the complexity of the new GILTI tax rules, we are continuing to evaluate this provision of the Act and the application of ASC 740.  Under U.S. GAAP, we are allowed to make an accounting policy choice of either (1) treating taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred (the “period cost method”) or (2) factoring such amounts into a company’s measurement of its deferred taxes (the “deferred method”).  Our selection of an accounting policy related to the new GILTI tax rules will depend, in part, on analyzing our global income to determine whether we expect to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI and, if so, what the impact is expected to be.  Because whether we expect to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI depends on a number of different aspects or our estimated future results of global operations, we are not yet able to reasonably estimate the long-term effects of this provision of the Act.  Therefore, we have not recorded any potential deferred tax effects related to GILTI in our financial statements and have not made a policy decision regarding whether to record deferred taxes on GILTI or use the period cost method.  We have however, included an estimate of the estimated 2018 current GILTI impact in our Annual Effective Tax Rate (AETR) for 2018.  We expect to complete our accounting within the prescribed measurement period.

 

I.       PROPERTY SALE

The Company completed a sale of a property in Medley, Florida, during the first quarter of 2018. The sale price for the property was approximately $36 million and created a $7 million pre-tax gain.  The transaction is part of a strategy to create efficiencies and advantages not possible with the current facility by optimizing the capacity of its other three Florida operations, including two it acquired from Robbins Manufacturing in 2017, and adding a state-of-the-art facility in South Florida.  The Company will lease back the Medley, Florida, facility for two years as it executes its long-term plan for Florida and the Southeast region.  Since only a minor portion of the property sold was leased back the entire gain is included in income.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Universal Forest Products, Inc. is a holding company with subsidiaries throughout North America, Europe, Asia, and in Australia that supply wood, wood composite and other products to three robust markets: retail, industrial, and construction. The Company is headquartered in Grand Rapids, Mich. For more information about Universal Forest Products, Inc., or its affiliated operations, go to www.ufpi.com.

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, that are based on management’s beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the markets we serve, the economy and the Company itself. Words like “anticipates,” “believes,” “confident,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “likely,” “plans,” “projects,” “should,” variations of such words, and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. These statements do not guarantee future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence. The Company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect facts, circumstances, events, or assumptions that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made. Actual results could differ materially from those included in such forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainty. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements are the following: fluctuations in the price of lumber; adverse or unusual weather conditions; adverse economic conditions in the markets we serve; government regulations, particularly involving environmental and safety regulations; and our ability to make successful business acquisitions. Certain of these risk factors as well as other risk factors and additional information are included in the Company's reports on Form 10-K and 10-Q on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We are pleased to present this overview of 2018.

OVERVIEW

Our results for the second quarter of 2018 were impacted by the following:

·

Our gross sales increased by 21% compared to the second quarter of 2017, which was comprised of an 8% increase in unit sales and a 13% increase in selling prices primarily due to the commodity lumber market (see Historical Lumber Prices below).  Organic growth contributed 7% of our unit sales increase, while acquisitions contributed 1%.    We experienced favorable organic growth to each of the markets we serve.

·

Our operating profits increased by 12.5% compared to the second quarter of 2017, which compares favorably with our 8% increase in unit sales.  The improvement in our profit per unit was primarily due to rising lumber prices for most of the quarter which favorably impacted the gross profit of products we sell with variable selling prices.  Conversely, lumber prices fell for most of the second quarter of 2017. 

·

Our effective tax rate was approximately 23% due to the change in tax law.  We currently anticipate an overall rate of 23.5% for the year.

·

Cash flow used in operating activities was $36 million due to peak lumber prices and seasonal working capital requirements totaling approximately $139 million since year end.  We currently anticipate that this seasonal investment and the amount outstanding on the revolving credit facility will be reduced accordingly by October.

IMPACT OF THE LUMBER MARKET ON OUR OPERATING RESULTS

We generally price our products to pass lumber costs through to our customers so that our profitability is based on the value-added manufacturing, distribution, engineering, and other services we provide. As a result, our sales levels (and working capital requirements) are impacted by the lumber costs of our products.  Lumber costs were 52.8% and 49.3% of our sales in the first six months of 2018 and 2017, respectively. 

Our gross margins are impacted by (1) the relative level of the Lumber Market (i.e. whether prices are higher or lower from comparative periods), and (2) the trend in the market price of lumber (i.e. whether the price of lumber is increasing or decreasing within a period or from period to period). Moreover, as explained below, our products are priced differently. Some of our products have fixed selling prices, while the selling prices of other products are indexed to the reported Lumber Market with a fixed dollar adder to cover conversion costs and profits. Consequently, the level and trend of the Lumber Market impact our products differently.

Below is a general description of the primary ways in which our products are priced.

·

Products with fixed selling prices. These products include value-added products such as deck components and fencing sold to retail customers, as well as trusses, wall panels and other components sold to the construction market, and most industrial packaging products. Prices for these products are generally fixed at the time of the sales quotation for a specified period of time or are based upon a specific quantity. In order to maintain margins and reduce any exposure to adverse trends in the price of component lumber products, we attempt to lock in costs with our suppliers for these sales commitments. Also, the time period and quantity limitations eventually allow us to re-price our products for changes in lumber costs from our suppliers.  We believe our sales of these products are at their highest relative level in our third and fourth quarter.

·

Products with selling prices indexed to the reported Lumber Market with a fixed dollar “adder” to cover conversion costs and profits. These products primarily include treated lumber, remanufactured lumber, and trusses sold to the manufactured housing industry. For these products, we estimate the customers’ needs and we carry anticipated levels of inventory. Because lumber costs are incurred in advance of final sale prices, subsequent increases or decreases in the market price of lumber impact our gross margins.  We believe our sales of these products are at their highest relative level in our second quarter, primarily due to treated lumber sold to the retail market.

For each of the product pricing categories above, our margins are exposed to changes in the trend of lumber prices.

The greatest risk associated with changes in the trend of lumber prices is on the following products:

·

Products with significant inventory levels with low turnover rates, whose selling prices are indexed to the Lumber Market. In other words, the longer the period of time these products remain in inventory, the greater the exposure to changes in the price of lumber. This would include treated lumber, which comprises approximately 19% of our total sales. This exposure is less significant with remanufactured lumber, trusses sold to the manufactured housing market, and other similar products, due to the higher rate of inventory turnover. We attempt to mitigate the risk associated with treated lumber through vendor consignment inventory programs. (Please refer to the “Risk Factors” section of our annual report on form 10‑K, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.)

·

Products with fixed selling prices sold under long-term supply arrangements, particularly those involving multi-family construction projects. We attempt to mitigate this risk through our purchasing practices by locking in costs.

In addition to the impact of the Lumber Market trends on gross margins, changes in the level of the market cause fluctuations in gross margins when comparing operating results from period to period. This is explained in the following example, which assumes the price of lumber has increased from period one to period two, with no changes in the trend within each period.

As is apparent from the preceding example, the level of lumber prices does not impact our overall profits, but does impact our margins. Gross margins are negatively impacted during periods of high lumber prices; conversely, we experience margin improvement when lumber prices are relatively low.  In order to more effectively evaluate our profitability in such periods, we believe it is useful to compare our change in units shipped with our changes in costs and profits.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

We completed five business acquisitions during the first six months of 2018 and four during all of 2017. The annual historical sales attributable to acquisitions completed in the first six months 2018 and all of 2017 were approximately $120 million and $127 million, respectively.  These business combinations were not significant to our quarterly or year-to-date operating results individually or in aggregate and thus pro forma results for 2018 or 2017 are not presented.

See Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Note F, “Business Combinations” for additional information.

UNIVERSAL FOREST PRODUCTS, INC.

 

GROSS SALES

We design, manufacture and market wood and wood-alternative products for national home centers and other retailers, structural lumber and other products for the manufactured housing industry, engineered wood components for residential and commercial construction, specialty wood packaging, components and packing materials for various industries, and customized interior fixtures used in a variety of retail stores, commercial and other structures.  Our strategic long-term sales objectives include:

·

Diversifying our end market sales mix by increasing sales of specialty wood and non-wood packaging to industrial users, increasing our penetration of the concrete forming market, increasing our sales of engineered wood components for custom home, multi-family, military and light commercial construction, increasing our market share with independent retailers, and increasing our sales of customized interior fixtures used in a variety of markets.

·

Expanding geographically in our core businesses, domestically and internationally.

·

Increasing sales of "value-added" products, which primarily consist of fencing, decking, lattice, and other specialty products sold to the retail  market, specialty wood packaging, engineered wood components, customized interior fixtures, and "wood alternative" products. Engineered wood components include roof trusses, wall panels, and floor systems.  Wood alternative products consist primarily of composite wood and plastics. Although we consider the treatment of dimensional lumber with certain chemical preservatives a value-added process, treated lumber is not presently included in the value-added sales totals.

·

Maximizing unit sales growth while achieving return on investment goals.

·

Developing new products and expanding our product offering for existing customers. New product sales were $153.1 million in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $122.8 million during the second quarter of 2017.  New products sales year-to-date for 2018 and 2017 were $262.2 million and $211.1 million, respectively.

COST OF GOODS SOLD AND GROSS PROFIT

Our gross margin decreased to 12.8% from 13.8% comparing the second quarter of 2018 to the same period of 2017 due to the higher level of lumber prices (See “Impact of the Lumber Market on Our Operating Results”).  More importantly, our 11.8% increase in gross profit dollars compares favorably to our 8% increase in unit sales during the same period.  Acquired operations contributed $1.9 million of gross profit in the second quarter of 2018.  Excluding acquisitions, our gross profits increased by $15.6 million, or 10.5%, over the same period last year due to the following:

·

Our gross profit on sales to the retail market increased by approximately $8 million, primarily due to the favorable impact of the rising lumber market on products we sell with variable selling prices as well as new product sales growth.

·

Our gross profit on sales to the industrial market increased by approximately $4 million, due to a combination of growth and more effectively passing on lumber cost increases in our selling prices.

·

Our gross profit on sales to the construction market increased by approximately $4 million, primarily due to organic growth.

Our gross margin decreased to 13.0% from 14.0% comparing the first six months of 2018 to the same period of 2017 due to the higher level of lumber prices (See “Impact of the Lumber Market on Our Operating Results”).  Our 10.3% increase in gross profit dollars compares favorably to our 8% increase in unit sales during the same period.  Acquired operations contributed $5.4 million of gross profit in the first six months of 2018.  Excluding acquisitions, our gross profits increased by $22.2 million, or 8.3%, over the same period last year due to the following:

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by approximately $10.0 million, or 10.6%, in the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same period of 2017, while we reported an 8% increase in unit sales. Accrued bonus expense, which varies with our overall profitability and return on investment, totaled $14.5 million in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $12.1 million in 2017.  Acquired operations contributed approximately $1.0 million to our year over year increase.  The remaining increase was primarily due to an increase in base wages and benefits ($2.7 million), sales incentive expenses ($2.5 million), idX’s lease termination ($1.5 million), and employee benefits including healthcare ($1.5 million), which were offset by decreases in other areas. 

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by approximately $16.2 million, or 8.9%, in the first six months of 2018 compared to the same period of 2017, while we reported an 8% increase in unit sales. Accrued bonus expense, which varies with our overall profitability and return on investment, totaled $23.6 million in the first six months of 2018 compared to $20.2 million in 2017.  Acquired operations contributed approximately $3.2 million to our year over year increase.  The remaining increase was primarily due to an increase in base wages and benefits ($5.8 million), sales incentive expenses ($4.3 million), employee benefits ($1.9 million), and idX’s lease termination ($1.5 million). 

INTEREST, NET

Net interest costs were higher in the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same period of 2017 primarily due to an increase in working capital resulting from growth and peak lumber prices as well as increases in short-term borrowing rates. 

INCOME TAXES

Effective tax rates differ from statutory federal income tax rates, primarily due to provisions for state and local income taxes and permanent tax differences.  Our effective tax rate was 22.9% in the second quarter of 2018 compared to 34.0% for same period in 2017.  Our effective tax rate was 22.6% in the first six months of 2018 compared to 33.7% for the same period in 2017.  This decrease was due to changes resulting from the Tax Act, which reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018, along with eliminating the domestic manufacturing deduction.  We currently anticipate an overall tax rate of 23.5% for the year.

In general, we funded our growth in the past through a combination of operating cash flows, our revolving credit facility, industrial development bonds (when circumstances permit), and issuance of long-term notes payable at times when interest rates are favorable. We have not issued equity to finance growth except in the case of a large acquisition. We manage our capital structure by attempting to maintain a targeted ratio of debt to equity and debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe this is one of many important factors to maintaining a strong credit profile, which in turn helps ensure timely access to capital when needed.

Seasonality has a significant impact on our working capital due to our primary selling season which occurs during the period from March to September. Consequently, our working capital increases during our first and second quarters resulting in negative or modest cash flows from operations during those periods. Conversely, we experience a substantial decrease in working capital once we move beyond our peak selling season which typically results in significant cash flows from operations in our third and fourth quarters.

Due to the seasonality of our business and the effects of the Lumber Market, we believe our cash cycle (days of sales outstanding plus days supply of inventory less days payables outstanding) is a good indicator of our working capital management. As indicated in the table below, our cash cycle decreased to 49 days from 50 days during the second quarter of 2018 compared to the prior periods.

In the first six months of 2018, our cash used in operating activities was $36.1 million, which was comprised of net earnings of $78.7 million and $24.1 million of non-cash expenses, offset by a $138.9 million seasonal increase in working capital since the end of December 2017.  Comparatively in the first six months of 2017, our cash provided by operating activities was $15.2 million, which was comprised of net earnings of $56.2 million, and $27.0 million of non-cash expenses, offset by a $68.0 million seasonal increase in working capital since the end of December 2016.  The

increase in working capital compared to the same period last year was primarily due to growth in our business and higher lumber prices.

Acquisitions and purchases of property, plant, and equipment comprised most of our cash used in investing activities during the first six months of 2018 and totaled $38.0 million and $54.3 million, respectively. Proceeds from the sale of our Medley, FL, plant provided approximately $36 million in net cash proceeds.  Outstanding purchase commitments on existing capital projects totaled approximately $23.4 million on June 30, 2018. We currently plan to spend up to $100 million for the year on capital expenditures.  We intend to fund capital expenditures and purchase commitments through our operating cash flows for the balance of the year.  Comparatively, capital expenditures were $34.5 million during the first six months of 2017.  The increase in our capital expenditures in 2018 is primarily due to the additional requirements of recently acquired operations and certain real estate purchases as we continue to grow our business and utilize the proceeds for the sale of our Medley plant to achieve a favorable tax treatment.  The sale and purchase of investments totaling $9.3 million and $3.2 million, respectively, are due to investment activity in our captive insurance subsidiary.

Cash flows from financing activities primarily consisted of net borrowings under our revolving credit facility of approximately $57.2 million and $75 million in Senior Notes issued under our shelf facility.  Additionally, we paid a semi-annual dividend totaling $11.1 million or $0.18 per share.

On June 30, 2018, we had $116.2 million outstanding on our $295 million revolving credit facility. The outstanding revolving credit facility also includes letters of credit totaling approximately $9.8 million on June 30, 2018; as a result, we have approximately $168.9 million in remaining availability on our revolver after considering letters of credit. Additionally, we have $150 million in availability under an amended “shelf agreement” for long term debt with a current lender after considering the second quarter issuance of long-term Senior Notes. Financial covenants on the unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured notes include minimum interest tests and a maximum leverage ratio. The agreements also restrict the amount of additional indebtedness we may incur and the amount of assets which may be sold. We were in compliance with all our covenant requirements on June 30, 2018.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS AND REGULATIONS

See Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, Note E, “Commitments, Contingencies, and Guarantees.”

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we follow accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These principles require us to make certain estimates and apply judgments that affect our financial position and results of operations. We continually review our accounting policies and financial information disclosures. There have been no material changes in our policies or estimates since December 30, 2017.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable rate debt, which consists of a revolving credit facility and industrial development revenue bonds. We do not currently use interest rate swaps, futures contracts or options on futures, or other types of derivative financial instruments to mitigate this risk.

For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair market value, but not earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not influence fair market value, but do affect future earnings and cash flows. We do not have an obligation to prepay fixed rate debt prior to maturity, and as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair market value should not have a significant impact on such debt until we would be required to refinance it.

We are subject to fluctuations in the price of lumber. We experience significant fluctuations in the cost of commodity lumber products from primary producers (the “Lumber Market”). A variety of factors over which we have no control, including government regulations, transportation, environmental regulations, weather conditions, economic conditions, and natural disasters, impact the cost of lumber products and our selling prices. While we attempt to minimize our risk from severe price fluctuations, substantial, prolonged trends in lumber prices can affect our sales volume, our gross margins, and our profitability. We anticipate that these fluctuations will continue in the future. (See “Impact of the Lumber Market on Our Operating Results.”)

Our international operations have exposure to foreign currency rate risks, primarily due to fluctuations in their local currency, which is their functional currency, compared to the U.S. dollar. Additionally, certain of our operations enter into transactions that will be settled in a currency other than the U.S. Dollar. We entered into forward foreign exchange rate contracts in 2017 and may enter into further forward contracts in the future associated with mitigating the foreign currency exchange risk. Historically, our hedge contracts are deemed immaterial to the financial statements, however any material hedge contract in the future will be disclosed.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a)

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. With the participation of management, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15e and 15d – 15e) as of the quarter ended June 30, 2018 (the “Evaluation Date”), have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(b)

Changes in Internal Controls. During the quarter ended June 30, 2018, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

We may be impacted by new tariffs and duties on U.S. imports and foreign export sales.  Instability of established free trade agreements may lead to raw material and finished goods price volatility.  An increase in foreign tariffs on U.S. goods could curtail our export sales to other countries which was approximately $110.8 million in 2017.  Increased tariffs and duties on U.S. imports will increase pricing by adding duty cost, where the duty is sustainable in light of overall unit price, or otherwise constrain supply by eliminating historical production sources by country or commodity type with unsustainable duties.  UFP’s consolidated U.S. imports were approximately $132.6 million in 2017.  In addition, there is a risk that U.S. tariffs on imports and countering tariffs on U.S. exports could trigger broader international trade conflicts that could adversely impact our business.
