2022 ANNUAL REPORT

Our Mission

We make life and living better by designing and producing doors that address 
human needs for comfort, safety, security and convenience. 

Doors That Do More™

Every Masonite® exterior fiberglass door with our 4-Point

Performance Seal is 64% better at keeping air and water

out than the leading competitor. Our 4-Point Performance

Seal sets the Masonite® Performance Door System apart

from the rest. It’s made with Endura® components for

superior energy efficiency, performance and comfort.

LETTER TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Shareholders,

I am pleased to report that 2022 was another year of solid

performance for Masonite. We delivered strong financial results and

made significant progress in executing our Doors That Do More™

strategy to position the company for long-term sustainable growth.

We increased Net Sales by 11%, Adjusted EBITDA* by 8%,

Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPS)* by 19% and Return On

Invested Capital (ROIC)* by 400 basis points. At the same

time, we reinvested over $100 million of capital back into our

business, increased our total addressable market with the

acquisition of Endura Products and repurchased $149 million in

outstanding shares to further enhance shareholder returns.

Our management team has established an impressive three-year

track record of performance with double-digit compound annual

growth rates on our key financial metrics. This has not been easy,

and I am grateful to all of our dedicated employees across the

company who helped achieve these results despite the considerable

macroeconomic headwinds and volatility we faced along the way.

DOORS THAT DO MORE™ STRATEGY

An important enabler of our growth over the past three years has been tight organizational

alignment around our Doors That Do More™ strategy. The strategy has three pillars focused on

delivering reliable supply with operational excellence, driving product leadership with innovation

and winning the sale with engaging marketing. I believe that expanding our capabilities in

these three key areas is building a competitive advantage for Masonite that will be instrumental

in our ability to continue to outperform the market regardless of the business cycle.

In 2022, we made meaningful progress on each of our three Doors That Do More™ strategic pillars.

DELIVERING RELIABLE SUPPLY

We endeavor to be the preferred business partner in our markets by consistently delivering high-

quality products and outstanding service. We recognize the value that our customers put on reliability,

and our work in this area is relentless. In the past year we completed over 3,000 Mvantage continuous

improvement Kaizen events throughout our operations, targeting improvements in safety, efficiency

and service levels. We also opened two new production facilities to modernize our global network,

while taking actions to further diversify our global supply chain and make it more resilient.

The new Masonite plant in Fort Mill, SC was designed for optimal safety, efficiency, and quality based on

best practices from our global manufacturing network.

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Always Connected. Always Protected.

DRIVING PRODUCT LEADERSHIP

Our mission at Masonite is to make life and

living better by designing and producing doors

that address human needs for comfort, safety,

convenience and style. In 2022 we rolled out

several innovative new products including the

award-winning Masonite® M-Pwr™ Smart Doors,

as well as the new Masonite® Performance Door

System, which is 64% better at keeping out air and

water than the leading competitor. We also drove

awareness of our other value-added offerings

such as solid core doors, which offer homeowners

increased privacy. These initiatives allowed us

to benefit from tangible mix improvements in

both our interior and exterior door sales.

Make Masonite® Solid Core
Doors The Standard

WINNING THE SALE

On top of having great products and great

service, we are aggressively working to build

the Masonite brand and deepen customer

relationships. In 2022 our activities in this area

included upgrading in-store displays, executing

*

targeted online marketing campaigns, and

creating digital assets to inspire customers

embarking on a new home build or remodeling

project. We also upgraded production for

millions of our pre-hung doors to use Masonite

branded hinges so homeowners will instantly

know they have high-quality Masonite doors.

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

ACQUISITION OF ENDURA PRODUCTS

In the fourth quarter of 2022 we announced the acquisition

of Endura Products, our first major acquisition since we

launched the Doors That Do More™ strategy. Endura is a leading

innovator and manufacturer of high-performance door frames

and door system components, and the combination of the

two companies is a natural fit. Key product lines include:

■ Engineered Frames

■ Installation Accessories

■ French Door Astragals

■ Weather Stripping

■ Multi-point Locks

■ Sills & Sealing Systems

We have worked together with Endura for more than 25 years

and recently collaborated on M-Pwr™ Smart Doors and the

Masonite® Performance Door System. We are excited about

the future potential for this business, and our combined team

is already actively engaged in developing new concepts to

further unlock the potential of fully integrated door systems.

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE

We have entered 2023 with a strong record of performance,

a very healthy financial position that allows for continued

investment and great new assets to leverage in executing

our strategy. The outlook for residential construction and

building products this year is uncertain, but we are confident

in the long-term market fundamentals. I expect that when

demand ultimately rebounds, it will bring opportunities

for Masonite to accelerate our growth. In the meantime,

we have developed a comprehensive 2023 playbook with

initiatives aimed at supporting margins with strong price-

cost management, driving commercial and operational

efficiencies, reducing working capital and continuing to

invest in our Doors That Do More™ strategic priorities.

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

As a company founded in 1925 by turning waste into worth, we remain committed to achieving our

goals in the context of sustainability. I firmly believe that we will continue to do well by doing good

for our employees, our communities and for the environment. This underpins both our company’s

purpose, “We Help People Walk Through Walls,” and our company’s Environmental, Social and

Governance strategy of “Renewed Responsibility.” In our ESG report to be published later this

year, I look forward to sharing with you more about our accomplishments in these areas.

To all of our stakeholders, we appreciate your support and confidence in Masonite. We remain

focused on delivering continued growth and outperformance in our markets. We believe we

have the right people, the right strategy and the right assets to achieve these objectives. We

are evolving every day into a stronger company with a more valuable brand, and we invite

you to continue to invest with us to capture the benefit of the value we are creating.

Overview

We are a leading global designer, manufaff cturt er, marketer and distributor of interior and exterior doors and

the new construr ction and repair, renovation and remodeling sectors of the residential and non-

door systems forff
residential building construcrr
tion markets. Since 1925, we have provided our customers with innovative products and
superior service at compelling values. Today, we believe we hold either the number one or two market position in the
seven product categories we target in North America: interior molded residential doors; interior stile and rail residential
doors; exterior fiff berglass residential doors; exterior steel residential doors; interior architecturt al wood doors; wood
veneers; and door core. We operate 59 manufaff cturt
Europe, South America and Asia, which are strategically located to serve our customers.

We are committed to delivering growth forff

our customers, partners, shareholders and employees through our

Doors That Do MoreTM strategy, which has three pillars: (1) Drive Product Leadership, (2) Win the Sale and (3) Deliver
Reliabla e Supply. Drive Product Leadership emphasizes offff eff ring innovative door solutions that address human needs forff

deliver high-quality products and services forff

our customers and partners.

In addition, we have implemented a disciplined acquisition strategy that solidififf ed our presence in the markets
we serve. In 2022, we announced our intent to acquire Endura Products, a leading innovator and manufaff cturt er of high-
perforff mance door frff ames and door system components. Endura has a long historyrr of product innovation and holds more
than 100 patents on its door system components. This acquisition accelerates ours Doors That Do MoreTM strategy by
unlocking the value of fulff

Our North American Residential segment is our largest segment, focff used on providing high-quality interior

the segment.

Europe

Our Europe segment is a leading provider of interior doors frff om recycled wood fiff bers and energy-effff iff cient,

Our Products

We aim to be the brand that customers request for the innovation and value we create. Our door solutions

address the dynamic nature of compliance, technical specifications and developing market needs.

We sell an extensive range of interior and exterior doors in a wide array of designs, materials and sizes. Our

interior doors are made with wood and related materials such as hardboard (including wood composite molded and flat
door facings). Our exterior doors are made primarily of steel, fiberglass or composite materials.

Our focus on cons

ff

umer driven innovation led us to think broadly about the entire door system and the value it

r

can bring when integrated. This approach combined with Masonite’s business relationships in the industry led to the
development of award winning products such as the M-PwrTM Smart Doors and the Masonite Performance Door
System. Masonite’s M-PwrTM Smart Doors are the first residential exterior doors to integrate power, lights, a video
doorbell and smart lock into the door system. They employ patent-pending, Underwriters Laboratories ("UL") certified
technology to connect residential front doors to a home’s electrical system and wireless internet network. The Masonite
Perforff mance Door System features the company’s industry-leading 4-Point Performance Seal, which includes Premium
Square Edge Fiberglass Doors, Endura Products’ Z-Articulating Cap SillTM, PE650 Weatherstripping, Simple
Solution® Corner Pads and FrameSaver® rot-proof door frame.

Exterior Doors

Fiberglass doors are considered premier exterior doors and are made by assembling two fiff berglass door faff cings

lightweight and impervious to many caustics and to extreme temperaturt es. These attributes make fiff berglass an ideal
material forff

We have a leading position in the manufaff cturt

(stile and rails), glass inserts (lites), door core, interior door faff cings (molded and veneer) and exterior door faff cings. The

in large scale wood fiff ber processing equipment. Interior molded door faff cings are produced by combining fiff ne wood
particles, synthetic resins and other additives under heat and pressure in large multi-opening automated presses utilizing
Masonite proprietaryrr steel plates. The faff cings are then primed, cut and inspected in a second highly automated
continuous operation prior to being packed forff
shipping to our door assembly plants. We operate fiff ve interior molded
door faff cing plants around the world, two in North America and one in each of South America, Europe and Asia. Our

Transition risks are those risks relating to the transition of the global economy to a focff us on more climate-frff iendly

In respect to transition risks, our operations are subject to numerous Canadian (feff deral, provincial and local),
United States (feff deral, state and local), European (European Union, national and local) and other laws and regulations
relating to pollution, public reporting and disclosure related to climate change, and the protection of human health and
the environment, including, without limitation, those governing emissions to air, discharges to water, storage, treatment
and disposal of waste, releases of contaminants or hazardous or toxic substances, remediation of contaminated sites and
protection of worker health and safeff ty. From time to time, our faff cilities are subject to investigation by governmental
regulators. Despite our effff orff

In addition, the requirements of such laws and enforff cement policies have generally become more stringent

over time. Changes in environmental laws and regulations or in their enforff cement or the discoveryrr of previously
unknown or unanticipated contamination or non-compliance with environmental laws or regulations relating to our
properties or operations could result in signififf cant environmental liabia lities or costs which could adversely affff eff ct our

costs to comply with such laws as well as increasingly stringent air emission control laws or other futff urt e requirements,
which may decrease our cash flff ows. Also, discoveryrr of currently unknown or unanticipated conditions could require

In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corpor

ate governance and public disclosure,

including the Sarbar nes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Act and related regulations implemented by the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and the stock exchanges are creating uncertainty forff
and fiff nancial compliance costs and making some activities more time-consuming. Further, new regulations or
interprr etations of existing laws may result in enhanced disclosure obligations, including with respect to climate change
or other Environmental, Social and Governance matters, which could negatively affff eff ct us or materially increase our
regulatoryrr burden. Increased regulations generally increase our costs, and we could continue to experience higher costs
if new laws require us to spend more time, hire additional personnel or purchase new technology to comply effff eff ctively.
These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varyirr ng interprrr etations, in many cases due to their lack of

General Risks

Public health issues such as a major epidemic or pandemic could adversely affect our business or results of operations.

Demand for our product is dependent on a variety of macroeconomic factors, such as employment levels,

interest rates, changes in stock market valuations, consumer confidence, housing demand and availability of financing
for home buyers. These factors, in particular consumer confiff dence, can be significantly adversely affected by a variety
of factors beyond our control. Since 2019, the ongoing spread of COVID-19 caused significant volatility in U.S. and
international debt and equity markets, which negatively impacted consumer confidence, and caused business
disruptions. For example, at various times in 2020, we temporarily closed certain locations as a result of government
orders and furloughed employees, as well as significantly altered our operations, thereby reducing production. The
impact of these actions resulted in a decrease in net sales of approximately $100 million in the second quarter of fiscal
year 2020. The impacts of COVID-19-related absenteeism, labor constraints and supply chain disruptions resulted in
lost production at our facilities and may continue in future periods.

While government restrictions have eased throughout 2022 and people have largely resumed pre-pandemic

r

activities, the effff eff cts of COVID-19 continue to linger in the global economy and our supply chains. There is continuing
uncertainty regarding how long the impacts of COVID-19 will affff eff ct the U.S. economy and our supply chain and
operations. Futurt e disrupt
ions and governmental actions, due to COVID-19 or a diffff eff rent epidemic or pandemic,
combined with any associated economic and/or social instabia lity or distress, may have an adverse impact on our results
of operations, fiff nancial condition and cash flff ows, and may lead to higher-than-normal inventory levels, higher sales-
related reserves, impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets, a volatile effective tax rate driven by changes in
the mix and earnings across our jurisdictions and an impact on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial
reporting.

This defiff nition of Adjusted EBITDA diffff eff rs frff om the defiff nitions of EBITDA contained in the indenturt e

governing the 2030 Notes, the 2028 Notes and the credit agreements governing the Term Loan Facility and the ABL
Facility. Adjusted EBITDA is used to evaluate and compare the perforff mance of the segments and it is one of the primaryrr
measures used to determine employee incentive compensation. Intersegment sales are recorded using market prices.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, frff om an operations standpoint, provides an appr

a

opriate way to measure and

assess segment perforff mance. Our management team has establa ished the practice of reviewing the perforff mance of each
segment based on the measures of net sales and Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is usefulff
of the consolidated fiff nancial statements because it provides the same inforff mation that we use internally to evaluate and
compare the perforff mance of the segments and it is one of the primaryrr measures used to determine employee incentive
compensation.

Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, (i) the United States, Canadian
and United Kingdom Base Rate (each as defiff ned in the credit agreement relating to the ABL Facility, the "Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement") plus a margin ranging frff om 0.25% to 0.50% per annum, or (ii) the Term SOFR or BA Rate
(each as defiff ned in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement), plus a margin ranging frff om 1.25% to 1.50% per
annum. In addition to paying interest on any outstanding principal under the ABL Facility, a commitment feff e is payabla e
on the undrawn portion of the ABL Facility in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum of the average daily balance of
unused commitments during each calendar quarter.

The ABL Facility contains various customaryrr

representations, warranties and covenants by us that, among other

things, and subject to certain exceptions, restricts our abia lity and the abia lity of our subsidiaries to: (i) pay dividends on
our common shares and make other restricted payments, (ii) make investments and acquisitions, (iii) engage in
transactions with our affff iff liates, (iv) sell assets, (v) merge and (vi) create liens. The ABL Facility, among other things, (i)
permits us to incur unlimited unsecured debt as long as such debt does not contain covenants or defaff ult provisions that
are more restrictive than those contained in the ABL Facility, (ii) permits us to incur debt as long as the pro forff ma
secured leverage ratio is less than 4.5 to 1.0, and (iii) adds certain additional exceptions and exemptions under the
restricted payment, investment and indebtedness covenants (including increasing the amount of certain debt permitted to
be incurred under existing exceptions). As of Januaryrr 1, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants under the credit
agreement governing the ABL Facility and there were no amounts outstanding under the ABL Facility.

Business Acquisii ition Accounting

We use the acquisition method of accounting forff

all business acquisitions. We allocate the purchase price of our

business acquisitions based on the faff ir value of identififf abla e tangible and intangible assets. The diffff eff rence between the
total cost of the acquisitions and the sum of the faff ir values of the acquired tangible and intangible assets less liabia lities is
recorded as goodwill.

Goodwill

Goodwill is not amortized but instead is tested annually forff

impairment on the last day of fiff scal November, or
more frff equently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carryirr ng amount may not be recoverabla e. The test forff
impairment is perforff med at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit’s carryirr ng amount to its faff ir value.
Possible impairment in goodwill is fiff rst analyzed using qualitative faff ctors such as macroeconomic and market
conditions, changing costs and actuat

We account forff

income taxes using the asset and liabia lity method. Under this method, defeff rred tax assets and

liabia lities are recognized forff
the futff urt e tax consequences of temporaryrr diffff eff rences between the carryirr ng amounts and the
tax basis of assets and liabia lities at enacted rates. We base our estimate of defeff rred tax assets and liabia lities on current tax
laws and rates and, in certain cases, business plans and other expectations about
futff urt e outcomes. We record a valuation
allowance to reduce our defeff rred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. While we have
considered futff urt e taxabla e income and ongoing prude
nt and feff asible tax planning strategies in assessing the need forff
valuation allowance, in the event that we were to determine that we would be abla e to realize our defeff rred tax assets in the
futff urt e in excess of our net recorded amount, an adjustment to the defeff rred tax assets would be a credit to income in the
period such determination was made. The consolidated fiff nancial statements include changes to the valuation allowances
as a result of uncertainty regarding our abia lity to realize certain defeff rred tax assets in the futff urt e.

These fiff nancial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Company’s fiff nancial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting fiff rm registered with the PCAOB and are

whether due to error or frff aud, and perforff ming procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a
test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the fiff nancial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the

Summaryr of Signi

i

fi iff cant Accounting Policies

(a)(( Principli es of consolidation:

These consolidated fiff nancial statements include the accounts of Masonite and our subsidiaries and the accounts

of any variabla e interest entities forff which we are the primaryrr benefiff ciary.rr
Intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated upon consolidation. The results of subsidiaries acquired during the periods presented are consolidated
frff om their respective dates of acquisition using the acquisition method. Subsidiaries are prospectively deconsolidated as
of the date we no longer have effff eff ctive control of the entity.

the same manner as translation gains and losses. Realized exchange gains and losses are included in net income forff

periods presented.

(c(( )c CasCC h and cash equivalentstt :

Cash includes cash equivalents which are short-term highly liquid investments with original maturt

ities of three

months or less.

(d)(( Restrt icted cash:

Restricted cash includes cash we have placed as collateral forff

standby letters of credit. The letters of credit

guarantee payment to third parties in the event the company is in breach of contract terms as detailed in each letter of
credit. As of Januaryrr 1, 2023, and Januaryrr 2, 2022, we had standby letters of credit totaling $2.1 million and $2.6
million, respectively. There were no amounts drawn upon these letters of credit as of Januaryrr 1, 2023, or Januaryrr 2,
2022.

(e(( )e Accountstt receivable:

Our customers are primarily retailers, distributors and contractors. We record an allowance forff
the time that accounts receivabla e are initially recorded based on the historical write-offff experience and the current
economic environment as well as our expectations of futff urt e economic conditions. We reassess the allowance at each
reporting date. When it becomes appa
collected, they are charged to the allowance. Payments subsequently received are credited to the credit loss expense
account included within selling, general and administration expenses in the consolidated statements of income and
comprehensive income. Generally, we do not require collateral forff

rent, based on age or customer circumstances, that such amounts will not be

our accounts receivabla e.

a

credit losses at

(f(( )ff InvII

entories:

Raw materials and fiff nished goods are valued at the lower of cost or net realizabla e value. Cost is determined on a

fiff rst in, fiff rst out basis. In determining the net realizabla e value, we consider faff ctors such as yield, turt nover, expected
futff urt e demand and past experience.

The cost of inventories includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing

the inventories to their present location and condition. The costs of conversion of inventories include costs directly
related to the units of production, such as direct labor

. They also include a systematic allocation of fiff xed and variabla e

a

55

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

production overheads that are incurred in converting raw materials into fiff nished goods. Fixed production overheads are
those indirect costs of production that remain relatively constant regardless of the volume of production, such as
depreciation and maintenance of faff ctoryrr buildings and equipment, and the cost of faff ctoryrr management and
administration. Variabla e production overheads are those indirect costs of production that varyrr directly, or nearly directly,
with the volume of production, such as indirect materials and indirect labor

a

.

To determine the cost of inventory,rr we allocate fiff xed expenses to the cost of production based on the normal
city, which refeff rs to a range of production levels and is considered the production expected to be achieved over a

capaa
number of periods or seasons under normal circumstances, taking into account the loss of capaa
planned maintenance. Fixed overhead costs allocated to each unit of production are not increased due to abnor
mally low
production. Those excess costs are recognized as a current period expense. When a production faff cility is completely shut
down temporarily, it is considered idle, and all related expenses are charged to cost of goods sold.

(h)(( Leases:

We determine if a contract is a lease at inception or upon acquisition and reevaluate each time a lease contract is

amended or otherwise modififf ed. A lease will be classififf ed as an operating lease if it does not meet any of the criteria forff
a fiff nance lease. Those criteria include the transfeff r of ownership of the underlying asset by the end of the lease term; an
option to purchase the underlying asset that we would be reasonabla y certain to exercise; the lease term is forff
the maja or
part of the remaining economic lifeff of the underlying asset; the present value of the sum of the lease payments and any
residual value guaranteed by us that is not already reflff ected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of
the faff ir value of the underlying asset or if the underlying asset is of such a specialized naturt e that it is expected to have
no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term.

The assets and liabia lities relating to operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-ff use assets, accruer d

expenses, and long-term operating lease liabia lities in our consolidated balance sheets. The assets and liabia lities relating to
fiff nance leases are included in property, plant and equipment, net and other liabia lities in our consolidated balance sheets.

When developing our discounted cash flff ow analyses, a number of assumptions and estimates are involved to

forff ecast operating cash flff ows, including futff urt e net sales growth, EBITDA margin growth, benefiff ts frff om restrucr
initiatives, income tax rates, capia tal spending, business initiatives and working capia tal changes. These assumptions may
varyrr signififf cantly among the reporting units. Operating cash flff ow forff ecasts are based on operating plans forff
years and historical relationships and long-term economic outlooks forff
estimated forff
each specififf c reporting unit. Due to the many variabla es inherent in the estimation of a reporting unit’s faff ir
value and the relative size of our recorded goodwill, diffff eff rences in assumptions may have a material effff eff ct on the results
of our impairment analyses. In 2021 and 2020, we recorded $59.5 million and $51.5 million, respectively, in impairment

(k(( )k IncII ome taxes:

rr

As a multinational corpor

ation, we are subject to taxation in many jurisdictions and the calculation of our tax
ication of complex tax laws and regulations in various

liabia lities involves dealing with inherent uncertainties in the appl
taxing jurisdictions. We assess the income tax positions and record tax liabia lities forff
all years subject to examination
based upon our evaluation of the faff cts, circumstances and inforff mation availabla e as of the reporting date. Our global
strucr
including the income tax impact of the legal entity ownership strucrr

We use the asset and liabia lity method of accounting forff

income taxes. Under the asset and liabia lity method,

defeff rred tax assets and liabia lities are recognized forff

We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefiff ts within the income tax expense line in

the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Accruerr d interest and penalties are included within the
related tax liabia lity line in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit our abia lity and

resulted in a goodwill impairment charge of $59.5 million. The charge represents the amount by which the carryirr ng value
of the Architecturt al reporting unit exceeded its faff ir value and reduced the goodwill balance in the Architecturt al reporting
unit frff om $59.5 million to zero. The $10.4 million asset impairment charge was determined based upon the excess of the
carryirr ng values of property, plant and equipment over the respective faff ir values of such assets, determined using a
each asset group. Each of these valuations was perforff med on a non-recurring basis

Management assesses the availabla e positive and negative evidence to estimate if suffff iff cient futff urt e taxabla e

income will be generated to use the existing defeff rred tax assets.

As of Januaryrr 1, 2023, and Januaryrr 2, 2022, a valuation allowance of $14.1 million and $10.3 million,

respectively, has been establa ished to reduce the defeff rred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing earnings attributabla e to Masonite by the weighted
average number of our common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing earnings
attributabla e to Masonite by the weighted average number of common shares plus the incremental number of shares
issuabla e frff om non-vested and vested RSUs and SARs outstanding during the period.

Our management reviews net sales and Adjusted EBITDA (as defiff ned below) to evaluate segment perforff mance

and allocate resources. Net assets are not allocated to the reportabla e segments. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP
fiff nancial measure which does not have a standardized meaning under GAAP and is unlikely to be comparabla e to similar
measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to either net income or
operating cash flff ows determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is defiff ned as net income (loss)

On Januaryrr 3, 2023, we completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding equity of EPI Holdings, Inc.

("Endura"), forff
oximately $375.0 million in cash. Endura is a leading innovator and manufaff cturt er of high-

engineered frff ames, self-ff adjusting sill systems, weather sealing, multi-point locks and installation accessories used by

be accounted forff

as a business combination, with the goodwill being non-deductible forff

tion as well as repair and remodeling appl

es.

a

r

Since the closing of the acquisition occurred subsequent to the Company's fiff scal year end, the allocation of the

purchase price to the underlying assets acquired and liabia lities assumed is subject to a forff mal valuation process, which
has not yet been completed. The maja or classes of assets acquired will include trade receivabla es, inventories, trade
payabla es and goodwill and intangibles. Our 2023 operating results will include the results frff om Endura frff om the date of
acquisition. Based on the timing of the acquisition and lack of availabla e inforff mation, we determined it to be
impracticabla e to disclose a preliminaryrr purchase price allocation or proforff ma fiff nancial inforff mation at this time.

During the year ended Januaryrr 1, 2023, we recorded $6.8 million of acquisition and due diligence related costs.

These costs were recorded in selling, general and administration expense within the consolidated statements of income
and comprehensive income.

establa ishing and maintaining adequate internal control over fiff nancial reporting

(as defiff ned in RulRR e 13a-15(f)ff under the Exchange Act). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over

Basis forff Opinion

its
The Company’s management is responsible forff maintaining effff eff ctive internal control over fiff nancial reporting and forff
assessment of the effff eff ctiveness of internal control over fiff nancial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s
Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Company’s internal control over fiff nancial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting fiff rm registered with
the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. feff deral
securities laws and the appl

icabla e rulrr es and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and

a

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over fiff nancial reporting, assessing the risk that a
material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effff eff ctiveness of internal control based on the
assessed risk, and perforff ming such other procedures as we considered necessaryrr
in the circumstances. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonabla e basis forff

our opinion.

Defiff nition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over fiff nancial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonabla e assurance regarding
the reliabia lity of fiff nancial reporting and the preparation of fiff nancial statements forff
es in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over fiff nancial reporting includes those policies
and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonabla e detail, accurately and faff irly reflff ect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonabla e assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessaryrr
principles, and that receipts and expenditurt es of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonabla e assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effff eff ct on
the fiff nancial statements.

to permit preparation of fiff nancial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting

external purpos

r

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over fiff nancial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effff eff ctiveness to futff urt e periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Please see Note 17 to our Form 10-K consolidated financial
statements in this annual report for the definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of net income
attributable to Masonite.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Sales. Management believes this
measure provides supplemental information on how successfully we operate our business.

Adjusted EPS is diluted earnings (loss) per common share attributable to Masonite (EPS) less restructuring
costs, asset impairment charges, loss (gain) on disposal of subsidiaries, loss on extinguishment of debt and other
items, if any, that do not relate to Masonite’s underlying business performance (each net of related tax expense
(benefit)). Management uses this measure to evaluate the overall performance of the Company and believes this
measure provides investors with helpful supplemental information regarding the underlying performance of the
Company from period to period. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other
companies.

Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) is defined as net operating profit after tax divided by average invested
capital. Management believes ROIC provides investors with an important perspective on how effectively
Masonite deploys capital.
