Plain-text annual report

C O M I N G TO G E T H E R 2019 A N N UA L R E P O RT 2 0 1 9 A N N UA L S A L E S $745M This 7-percent net sales growth versus 2018 drove adjusted EBITDA of $128 million. “We remain confident in the long-term prospects for our company.” ” D E A R F E L LOW S H A R E H O L D E R , DURING 2019, PGT INNOVATIONS CONTINUED TO MAKE PROGRESS on our growth strategy and further established our organization as a leading manufacturer of premium windows and doors. Last year, our business did not experience the severe hurricane activity that drove heightened demand for our products in 2018, yet we achieved record annual sales and adjusted EBITDA. 2019 FINANCIAL RESULTS Our overall increase in sales in 2019 was driven by sales growth in our Western business unit, which saw continued expansion in many of its core markets as well as new regions. Additionally, solid operational performance across our diverse product portfolio was reflected in our financial results. • Record sales of $745 million, an increase of 6.7 percent • Adjusted EBITDA was $128 million, an increase of 0.8 percent, with the benefit from incremental sales in our Western business unit primarily offset by the decline in sales in our legacy Florida business • Adjusted diluted EPS of $0.82, a decrease of 30.5 percent (or a decrease of 24.1 percent when adjusted for the issuance of 7 million additional shares in 2018) • Total liquidity of $175 million including cash and equivalents totaling $97 million and borrowing capacity of $78 million under our credit agreement at year end We faced macro headwinds in some markets during 2019, such as California, but saw positive momentum and strong order entry going into the first quarter of 2020. We established a presence in the direct-to-consumer space with our acquisition of NewSouth Window Solutions on February 1, 2020. In our search for another window and door company to acquire, NewSouth met key qualities we seek when adding to our house of brands, including quality products, solid management, attractive returns and a reasonable purchase price. The momentum that started 2020 has been tempered by the new reality of the global COVID-19 pandemic, and accordingly, our imperative has temporarily shifted from growth to maintaining strength and resilience for the duration of the crisis. Although the unprecedented pandemic has significantly impacted the economy, we are now focused on managing through this tremendous challenge with an unwavering commitment to the safety and well-being of our communities, team members, customers and shareholders. We have implemented substantial social measures to protect our team members including distancing requirements, increased sanitation through fogging and disinfectants, and institution of temperature checks at our facilities. Additionally, we will host our annual shareholder meeting virtually this year to protect the health and safety of our shareholders. As events are still unfolding, the impact to our business and the world economy is yet to be fully determined. Despite these circumstances, we remain confident in the long-term prospects for our company. We have taken decisive actions to preserve cash through cost reductions, consolidating capacity with our planned closure of our facility in Orlando, and prioritizing capital expenditures, while continuing to produce the essential products needed by our customers. With no debt maturities until 2022, we believe we have ample liquidity to weather the COVID-19 storm and the ability to quickly ramp capacity back to full production when demand is restored. We continue to position the business for opportunities that will emerge on the other side of the pandemic, where the need will remain for windows and doors that can withstand some of the toughest weather conditions on earth as well as unify indoor/outdoor living spaces. As part of our long-term growth strategy of diversification across geographies, products and sales channels, we completed the purchase of NewSouth Window Solutions, a manufacturer and installer of factory-direct windows and doors, including both impact-resistant and non-impact residential products. The acquisition accomplishes a number of strategic benefits: • Expands our geographic footprint both within Florida and coastal areas outside of Florida; • Provides a direct-to-consumer channel that is complementary to our existing dealer network; and • Delivers capacity to scale production and achieve cost synergies. We believe that as the economy recovers, the fundamental need for home repair and remodeling as well as new home construction will drive demand for our portfolio of brands, which will in turn generate strong free cash flow. While the economy may present significant challenges, we believe our CAPITAL ALLOCATION PRIORITIES are aligned with our pursuit of value creation over the long term. • Internal Investment • Debt Reduction • Strategic Acquisitions N E T S A L E S ( M I L L I O N S O F D O L L A R S ) A D J U S T E D E B I T D A* ( M I L L I O N S O F D O L L A R S ) *Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Please see the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income on page 102 of this Annual Report. 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 $390 $459 $511 $698 $745 $150.0 $250.0 $350.0 $450.0 $550.0 $650.0 $750.0 $69 $77 $86 $127 $128 $10.0 $30.0 $50.0 $70.0 $90.0 $110.0 $130.0 INTERNAL INVESTMENT is critical to our ability to create value for our customers and shareholders. We have strengthened our product portfolio by investing in new product development, advertising and marketing, all of which have contributed to our growth. Additionally, we have continued to invest strategically in automation and operational efficiencies to allow production to keep pace with demand while protecting our margins in a difficult labor market. Our next priority is our commitment to DEBT REDUCTION and maintaining a strong balance sheet. At the end of 2019, our ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA was 2.2x, at the low end of our target leverage range of 2x to 3x. Our resulting balance sheet strength should provide us with resiliency during the pandemic and the economic challenges it creates, as well as greater flexibility for future operational and strategic initiatives. Another priority is making STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS when we identify value-creating opportunities, such as NewSouth. In addition to growing our portfolio of strong brands and expanding our reach into coastal areas outside of our core Florida markets, we also expect to achieve cost synergies that will drive profit growth. In time, we will continue to look for additional acquisition opportunities to support further expansion into new markets and other building product categories that offer strong growth potential and attractive margins. Given the global economic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, our ability to anticipate the near-term financial impact to PGT Innovations is limited. In thinking about the future, however, we never lose sight of our four key strategic pillars that guide our approach to striving to create long-term customer and shareholder value. STRATEGIC PILLARS 1. Putting the customer first: We strive to put the customer at the center of our business. By delivering exceptional products, with exceptional service before, during and after the sale, we enhance brand recognition and loyalty, which in turn drive future growth. 2. Attracting talent: Our ultimate success depends on building the right team of talented, dedicated employees and helping those team members succeed. We strive to attract and retain top talent and make our company an ideal place to have a career. 3. Investing in our business: We are committed to investing in our business and scaling operations to meet demand, while maintaining a responsible level of liquidity. Meeting future demand and improving margins over the long term require ongoing investments to increase operational efficiencies through automation and continuous improvement across our manufacturing facilities. 4. Allocating capital strategically: Expected solid free cash flow generation should support our future growth by allowing us to deploy capital in ways we believe will continue to create long-term customer and shareholder value. We continually assess our capital allocation options, all with the goal of driving shareholder return. LOOKING AHEAD Currently, we do not know if life will regain a sense of normalcy as we enter the summer months, or if the need for social distancing and other pandemic-related factors will continue to impede home repair and remodeling and the new construction markets that we serve. No matter the scenario, we expect to continue to meet the needs of our customers, while protecting the health and safety of our employees. We remain confident that demand for our products will recover and that over the long-term, our legacy impact-resistant products, Western Window Systems and NewSouth product lines will achieve sales growth. We believe our geographic presence in destination states and strategic focus of selling into the indoor/outdoor living market and market for impact resistant products, through our valuable dealer network and our new, complementary direct-to-consumer channel, will provide us with a long-term competitive advantage. THE CORE VALUES THAT DRIVE US 2019 was an important year for our Company, as we focused on integrating our Western Window Systems acquisition and continued diligent cost control in our legacy Florida business. The recent addition of NewSouth supports our strategy longer term by adding a direct-to-consumer distribution channel both within our existing footprint as well as in incremental regions along the Southern Coastal states. I am honored to lead this great company and proud of our 3,000+ team members whose exceptional service made our growth possible. I am thankful to our customers and supply chain partners for their continued and unwavering support, especially during the current challenges that we will get through together. The near-term outlook might be hazy, but as we look farther out, we believe our differentiated products and service and strong position in our markets will enable us to continue to grow our business and create value for our shareholders.

BUSINESS Our Company PART I PGT Innovations, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “PGTI” or the “Company”) manufactures and supplies premium windows and doors. Its highly-engineered and technically-advanced products can withstand some of the toughest weather conditions on earth and unify indoor/outdoor living spaces. We create value through deep customer relationships, understanding the unstated needs of the markets we serve and a drive to develop category-defining products. We believe we are also the nation’s largest manufacturer of impact-resistant windows and doors, hold the leadership position in our primary markets, and we are part of the S&P SmallCap 400 Index. We manufacture complete lines of high-end, luxury, premium and mass-custom fully customizable aluminum and vinyl windows and doors and porch enclosure products, targeting both the residential repair and remodeling and new construction end markets. We market our impact-resistant products under four recognized brands: PGT® Custom Windows & Doors, CGI® Windows and Doors, WinDoor®, and, following our acquisition of NewSouth Window Solutions on February 1, 2020, the NewSouth brands. We believe all of these brands are positively associated with service, performance, quality, durability and energy efficiency. We also market a line of window and door products designed to unify indoor/outdoor living spaces under the Western Window Systems® brands, which we believe are associated with innovation, quality, durability and energy efficiency in the indoor/outdoor living space markets. Many of these brands have been added to our portfolio through the acquisitions described below. • On September 22, 2014, we acquired CGI, an innovator in impact-resistant product craftsmanship, strength and style that is recognized and respected in the architect community. • On February 16, 2016, we completed the acquisition of WinDoor, a provider of high-performance, impact-resistant windows and doors to five-star resorts, luxury condominiums, high-rise multi-family buildings, hotels and custom high-end single-family homes. • On September 6, 2016, we acquired an established fabricator of impact-resistant storefront window and door products, US Impact Systems, Inc. (“USI”), and announced the formation of CGIC, the brand and company through which we sell the former USI products. • On August 13, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Western Window Systems (the “WWS Acquisition”), an award-winning designer and manufacturer of premium contemporary doors and window systems with a focus on unifying indoor/outdoor living spaces. The Western Window Systems Acquisition has increased and diversified our product offerings and enabled us to expand beyond our previous geographically focused portfolio of primarily impact-resistant products. • On February 1, 2020, we completed the acquisition of NewSouth Window Solutions for $92 million in cash (the “NewSouth Acquisition”), financed by the add-on issuance of $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% senior notes (“Additional Senior Notes”), together with cash in hand. NewSouth is a manufacturer and installer of factory-direct, energy-efficient windows and doors, including both impact-resistant and non-impact residential products. NewSouth has eight retail showrooms in several locations throughout Florida, with an additional showroom in Charleston, South Carolina. Our impact-resistant products combine heavy-duty aluminum or vinyl frames with laminated glass to ensure structural integrity, which provides protection from wind-driven projectiles of all sizes and other debris during a storm. Our impact-resistant products substantially reduce the likelihood of penetration by impacting projectiles, protecting people and property, while providing expansive, unblocked exterior views that other forms of protection, such as shutters or wood coverings, do not provide. Our impact-resistant products also offer many other benefits, including: (1) abatement of sound to substantially decrease outside noise, including during hurricanes; (2) protection against the damaging effects of ultra-violet light; (3) reduction of energy loss due to changing external temperatures; and (4) energy efficiency that can significantly reduce cooling and heating costs, as evidenced by the energy ratings our products have received. These impact-resistant products satisfy the - 5 - nation’s most stringent building codes in hurricane-prone coastal states and provide an attractive alternative to shutters and other “active” forms of hurricane protection that require installation and removal before and after each storm. We also manufacture vinyl porch and patio enclosure products that are designed to allow air flow while protecting against inclement weather, making outdoor spaces more inviting. The addition of Western Window Systems (“WWS”) to our family of brands expanded our portfolio of offerings and our geographical footprint and added award-winning and innovative products that combine performance and quality with clean, functional designs. Its products are designed for strength, easy integration into a variety of spaces, smooth operation and are tested for durability. The acquisition of NewSouth is expected to support our diversification into growing segments in the window and door industry, by enabling us to enter the direct-to-consumer channel, where NewSouth is a market leader in Florida. NewSouth’s direct-to-consumer model is supported by its showrooms and in-home sales. With the addition of NewSouth, we expect to continue our strategy to grow in geographic areas outside of our core markets, with showroom openings planned for northern Florida and coastal states in the South. Our current market share in Florida, and which is the largest impact-resistant window and door market in the U.S., is greater than that of any competitor. We believe our leading market position is derived from our broad and high-quality product offerings, continuous innovation, well-recognized brands, strong customer relationships, technical capabilities, customer care and extensive knowledge of and involvement in developments regarding hurricane-protection building codes and testing protocols. With approximately 3,000 employees (as of December 28, 2019) at our various manufacturing facilities located in North Venice, Orlando and Hialeah, Florida, and Phoenix, Arizona, our vertically integrated manufacturing capabilities include in-house glass cutting, tempering, laminating and insulating capabilities, which provide us with a consistent source of specialized glass, shorter lead times, lower costs relative to third- party sourcing and an overall more efficient production process. Additionally, our manufacturing process relies on just-in-time delivery of raw materials and components as well as synchronous flow to promote labor efficiency and throughput, allowing us to more consistently fulfill orders on-time for our valued customers. The geographic regions in which we currently conduct business include the Southeastern U.S., Western U.S., Gulf Coast, Coastal mid-Atlantic, the Caribbean, Central America and Canada. We distribute our products through multiple channels, including approximately 1,700 independently-owned dealers and distributors, national building supply distributors, the in-home sales/custom order divisions of major U.S. home building and improvement supply retailers and, with our acquisition of NewSouth, the direct-to-consumer channel. We believe this broad distribution network provides us with the flexibility to meet demand as it shifts between the repair and remodel and residential new construction end markets. History PGT Innovations, Inc. is a Delaware corporation. We were formed on December 16, 2003 as PGT, Inc. and operate our business through our various subsidiaries, PGT Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation, which was founded in 1980 as Vinyl Tech, Inc. On June 27, 2006, we became a publicly listed company on the NASDAQ Global Market (NASDAQ) under the symbol “PGTI”. We changed our name to PGT Innovations, Inc. which we announced on December 14, 2016. Effective on December 28, 2016, the listing of the Company’s common stock was transferred to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and our common stock began trading on the NYSE under our existing ticker symbol of “PGTI”. Industry Segments We operate as two segments based on geography: the Southeast segment, and the Western segment. See Note 20 to the Financial Statements in Item 8 for more information. - 6 - Our Products PGT Custom Windows & Doors PGT’s products carry the PGT/Visibly Better® trade mark, and are designed to be ideal for new construction and replacement projects serving the residential, commercial, high-rise and institutional markets. PGT’s product line includes a variety of aluminum and vinyl windows and doors. WinGuard. WinGuard is an impact-resistant product line that combines heavy-duty aluminum or vinyl frames with laminated glass to provide protection from hurricane-force winds and wind-borne debris and satisfies increasingly stringent building codes. Our marketing and sales of the WinGuard product line is primarily targeted to hurricane-prone coastal states in the U.S., as well as the Caribbean and Central America. Combining the impact resistance of WinGuard with insulating glass creates energy efficient windows that can significantly reduce cooling and heating costs. Our WinGuard Vinyl line of windows and doors is designed to offer some of the highest design pressures available on impact-resistant windows and doors, in a modern profile, with larger sizes that satisfy the most stringent hurricane codes in the country. It protects against flying debris, intruders, outside noise and UV rays. EnergyVue. EnergyVue is our non-impact vinyl window featuring energy-efficient insulating glass and multi-chambered frames that meet or exceed ENERGY STAR® standards in all climate zones to help consumers save on energy costs. Its new design has a refined modern profile and robust construction and is offered in larger sizes and higher design pressures, multiple frame colors, and a variety of hardware finishes, glass tints, grid styles and patterns. Aluminum. We offer a complete line of fully customizable, non-impact-resistant aluminum frame windows and doors. These products primarily target regions with warmer climates, where aluminum is often preferred due to its ability to withstand higher structural loads. Adding insulating glass creates energy-efficient windows that can significantly reduce cooling and heating costs. Eze-Breeze. Eze-Breeze non-glass vertical and horizontal sliding panels for porch enclosures are vinyl-glazed, aluminum-framed products used for enclosing screened-in porches that provide protection from inclement weather. CGI CGI’s products carry the CGI® brand and carry the trademarked product names of Estate Collection, Sentinel by CGI, Estate Entrances, Commercial Series, Targa by CGI, and Sparta. Also, under CGI, CGIC sells the Company’s commercial storefront system. Estate Collection. Our Estate Collection of windows and doors is CGI’s premium aluminum impact- resistant product line. These windows and doors can be found in high-end homes, resorts and hotels, and in schools and office buildings. Our Estate Collection combines protection against hurricane force damage with architectural-grade quality, handcrafted details and modern engineering. These windows and doors protect and insulate against hurricane winds and wind-driven debris, outside noise, and offer UV protection. Estate’s aluminum frames are thicker than many of our competitors’ frames, making it a preferable choice for consumers in coastal areas prone to hurricanes. In January 2019, consistent with management’s plan for this product line, we began the process of making our Estate Collection part of our WinDoor product offerings, which we believe will align the Estate Collection’s status as a high-end, luxury product line, with WinDoor’s focus on the luxury market. We anticipate completion of this repositioning of the Estate Collection to WinDoor in the first half of 2020. Sentinel. Sentinel is a complete line of aluminum impact-resistant windows and doors from CGI that provides quality craftsmanship, energy efficiency and durability at a lower price point than our Estate Collection. Sentinel windows and doors are designed and manufactured with the objectives of enhancing home aesthetics, while delivering protection from hurricane winds and wind-borne debris. Sentinel is custom manufactured to exact sizes within our wide range of design parameters, therefore, reducing on-site - 7 - construction costs. In addition, Sentinel’s frame depth is designed for both new construction and replacement applications, resulting in faster, less intrusive installations. Targa. Targa is CGI’s line of vinyl, energy-efficient, impact-resistant windows designed specifically to exceed the Florida impact codes, which are the most stringent impact standards in the U.S. Targa windows are designed with the objective of enhancing the aesthetics of a home, are relatively low maintenance, with long-term durability, and environmental compatibility. Sparta. Sparta is CGI’s line of aluminum impact-resistant windows and doors that are offered at relatively lower price points, and that meet Florida’s impact codes. Commercial Storefront System. Our Commercial Storefront window system and entry doors are engineered to provide a flexible yet economical solution for a variety of applications. Our system is designed with the goal of providing easy fabrication and assembly, while also reducing installation time and challenges.

Windows and Doors. NewSouth manufactures a wide array of single-hung, double-hung, sliding, picture and visually appealing shaped windows which are durable and energy-efficient. NewSouth also manufactures durable and attractive patio and entry doors which we believe enhance safety and improve the appearance of entry spaces. Installation. NewSouth provides quality installation of its windows and doors through an experienced group of installation services companies who are subcontracted to install its products. Sales and Marketing Our sales strategy primarily focuses on attracting and retaining distributors and dealers with an expectation of consistently providing exceptional customer service, leading product designs and quality, and competitive pricing all using our advanced knowledge of building code requirements and technical expertise. We also market our products to national and regional homebuilders, who then purchase our products from dealers and distributors. With our acquisition of NewSouth Window Solutions in February 2020, our sales strategy also focuses on direct-to-consumer sales for the types of jobs and customers that our dealers historically have not targeted or serviced. Our marketing strategy is designed to reinforce the quality of our products and focuses on both coastal and inland markets. We support our customers through print and web-based advertising, consumer, dealer, and builder promotions, and selling and collateral materials. We also work with our dealers and distributors to educate architects, building officials, consumers and homebuilders on the advantages of using impact-resistant and energy-efficient products. We market our products based on our expectations of quality, building code compliance, outstanding service, shorter lead times, and on-time delivery using our fleet of trucks and trailers. Our Customers We have a highly diversified base of approximately 1,700 window distributors, building supply distributors, window replacement dealers and enclosure contractors. Our largest customer accounts for approximately 4% of net sales and our top ten customers account for approximately 22% of net sales. Our sales are driven by residential new construction and home repair and remodel end markets, which represented approximately 49% and 51% of our sales, respectively, during 2019. This compares to 41% and 59%, respectively, in 2018. The increase in the percentage of our sales made to the residential new construction market in 2019 is driven by the addition of the sales of WWS for the full year of 2019, almost all of which are made into the new construction end market. Before the NewSouth Acquisition, we did not supply our products directly to homebuilders but believe demand for our products is also a function of our strong relationships with certain national homebuilders. With the acquisition of NewSouth, we sell direct to the customer. Materials, Inventory and Supplier Relationships Our primary manufacturing materials include aluminum and vinyl extrusions, glass, ionoplast, and polyvinyl butyral. Although in many instances we have agreements with our suppliers, these agreements are generally terminable by either party on limited notice. While most of our materials are typically available from other sources, transitioning to alternative sources would require us to complete testing and certifications related to impact-resistance and for the alternative source of supply to create the customized equipment and tooling necessary to provide the materials and components to us. Therefore, our goal is to develop and maintain lasting relationships with our material suppliers. - 9 - Aluminum and vinyl extrusions accounted for approximately 36% of our material purchases during 2019. Glass, which includes sheet glass and finished glass, which we sourced from two major national suppliers, represented approximately 35% of our material purchases during 2019. Polyvinyl butyral and ionoplast, which are both used as inner layer in laminated glass, accounted for approximately 5% of our material purchases during 2019. The remainder of our material purchases in 2019 are primarily composed of hardware. Our inventory consists principally of raw materials purchased for the manufacture of our products and limited finished goods inventory as the majority of our products are custom, made-to-order products. Our inventory levels are more closely aligned with our number of product offerings rather than our level of sales. We have maintained our inventory level to have (i) raw materials required to support new product launches; (ii) a sufficient level of safety stock on certain items to ensure an adequate supply of material in the event of a sudden increase in demand and given our short lead-times; and (iii) adequate lead times for raw materials purchased from overseas suppliers in bulk supply. Backlog Our backlog was $67.0 million as of December 28, 2019, and $63.7 million as of December 29, 2018. Our backlog consists of orders that we have received from customers that have not yet shipped, and we expect that a significant portion of our current backlog will be recognized as sales in the first quarter of 2020, due in part to our lead times which typically range from one to five weeks. Intellectual Property We own and have registered trademarks in the U.S. In addition, we own several patents and patent applications concerning various aspects of window assembly and related processes. We are not aware of any circumstances that would have a material adverse effect on our ability to use our trademarks and patents. If we continue to renew our trademarks when necessary, the trademark protection provided by them is perpetual. Manufacturing Our manufacturing facilities are in Florida, where we produce customized impact-resistant and non-impact products, and in Arizona, where we produce customized non-impact products for the custom channel of our WWS brand, and standard products for its volume channel. The manufacturing process for our PGT Custom Windows and Doors products typically begins in our glass plant in North Venice, Florida, where we cut, temper, laminate, and insulate sheet glass to meet specific requirements of our customers’ orders, although our Hialeah (CGI), Orlando (WinDoor), and Tampa (NewSouth), Florida facilities and our Phoenix, Arizona (WWS) facility primarily source their glass needs from external suppliers. Glass is transported to our window and door assembly lines in a make-to-order sequence where it is combined with an aluminum or vinyl frame. These frames are also fabricated to order. We start with a piece of extruded material which is cut and shaped into a frame that fits the customers’ specifications. Once complete, product is immediately staged for delivery and generally shipped on our trucking fleet or with contracted carriers within 48 hours of completion. Competition The window and door industry is highly fragmented, and the competitive landscape is based on geography. The competition falls into the following categories. Local and Regional Window and Door Manufacturers: This group of competitors consists of numerous local job shops and small manufacturing facilities that tend to focus on selling products to local or regional dealers and wholesalers. Competitors in this group typically lack marketing support and the service levels and quality controls demanded by larger customers, as well as the ability to offer a full complement of products. - 10 - National Window and Door Manufacturers: This group of competitors tends to focus on selling branded products nationally to dealers and wholesalers and has multiple locations. International Window and Door Manufacturers: This group of competitors consists of non-U.S. companies that have created entities and established manufacturing operations within Florida and have an increasing presence in the South Florida region as suppliers of windows and doors, primarily for high-rise buildings. Active Protection: This group of competitors consists of manufacturers that produce shutters and plywood, both of which are used to actively protect openings. Our impact-resistant windows and doors represent passive protection, meaning, once installed, no activity is required to protect a home from storm related hazards. The principal methods of competition in the window and door industry are the development of long-term relationships with window and door dealers and distributors, and the retention of customers by delivering a full range of high-quality products in a timely manner, while offering competitive pricing and flexibility in transaction processing. Trade professionals such as contractors, homebuilders, architects and engineers also engage in direct interaction with manufacturers and look to the manufacturer for training and education related to products and codes. We believe our leading position in the U.S. impact-resistant window and door market, and the award-winning designs and quality of our products, position us well to meet the needs of our customers. Environmental Considerations Although our business and facilities are subject to federal, state, and local environmental regulation, environmental regulation does not have a material impact on our operations, and we believe that our facilities are in material compliance with such laws and regulations. Employees As of the end of 2019, we employed approximately 3,000 people, none of whom were represented by a collective bargaining unit. We believe we have good relations with our employees.

RISK FACTORS Risks Related to our Business We are subject to regional and national economic conditions. The window and door industry is subject to many economic factors. Changes in macroeconomic conditions in our core markets and throughout the U.S. generally could negatively impact demand for our products as it has in the past, and macroeconomic forces, such as employment rates and the availability of credit could have an adverse effect on our sales and results of operations. In addition, the window and door industry is subject to the cyclical market pressures of the larger new construction and repair and remodeling markets. A decline in the - 11 - economic environment or new home construction, as well as any other adverse changes in economic conditions, including demographic trends, employment levels, interest rates, and consumer confidence, could result in a decline in demand for, or adversely affect the pricing of, our products, which in turn could adversely affect our sales and results of operations. Changes in weather patterns, including as a result of global climate change, could significantly affect our financial results or financial condition. Weather patterns may affect our operating results and our ability to maintain our sales volume throughout the year. Because our dealers’ customers, and the homeowners and builders who are customers of NewSouth Window Solutions and Western Window Systems, depend on suitable weather to engage in new construction and repair and remodel projects, increased frequency or duration of extreme weather conditions could have a material adverse effect on our financial results or financial condition. For example, unseasonably cool weather or extraordinary amounts of rainfall may decrease construction activity, thereby decreasing our sales. Alternatively, extreme weather, such as hurricanes, has historically increased our brand’s visibility and customers’ demand for our impact-resistant products. Therefore, the lack of extreme weather conditions in a given year or over a period of time could result in a decrease of our sales and could have a material adverse effect on our financial results. Weather patterns are difficult to predict and may fluctuate as a result of climate change, and we cannot guarantee that extreme weather conditions will or will not occur. Also, we cannot predict the effects that global climate change may have on our business. In addition to changes in weather patterns, climate change could, for example, reduce the demand for construction, and increase the cost and reduce the availability of construction materials, raw materials and energy. New laws and regulations related to global climate change may also increase our expenses or reduce our sales. We are subject to fluctuations in the prices of our raw materials, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. We experience significant fluctuations in the cost of our raw materials, including aluminum extrusion, vinyl extrusion, polyvinyl butyral and glass. We anticipate that these fluctuations will continue in the future. A variety of factors over which we have no control, including global demand for aluminum, fluctuations in oil prices, speculation in commodities futures and the creation of new laminates or other products based on new technologies impact the cost of raw materials that we purchase for the manufacture of our products. These factors may also magnify the impact of economic cycles on our business. In addition, the current Presidential Administration has taken actions to impose tariffs on foreign steel and aluminum, in an effort to limit the amounts of steel and aluminum coming into the U.S. These actions have had and could continue to have a negative impact on prices our suppliers pay for their materials, which has increased the cost of steel and aluminum to us. We may not be able to minimize our risk from price fluctuations and the adverse impact of these tariffs by entering into aluminum forward contracts to hedge these fluctuations in the purchase price of aluminum extrusion we use in production. Substantial, prolonged upward trends in aluminum prices could significantly increase the cost of the unhedged portions of our aluminum needs and have an adverse impact on our sales and results of operations. We rely on a limited number of outside suppliers for certain key components and materials. We obtain a significant portion of our key raw materials, such as glass, aluminum and vinyl components, from a few key suppliers, and obtain the polyvinyl butyral interlayers used in certain of our products from a sole supplier. If any of these suppliers is unable to meet its obligations under present or any future supply agreements, the agreements could be terminated, or we may not be able to obtain certain raw materials on commercially reasonable terms and may suffer a significant interruption in our ability to manufacture our products, including because it may be difficult to find substitute or alternate suppliers as the glass, interlayers and aluminum and vinyl extrusions we use are customized. A supplier may also choose, subject to existing contracts, to modify its relationship due to general economic concerns or concerns relating to the supplier or us, at any time. These - 12 - modifications could include requirements from our suppliers that we provide them additional security in the form of prepayments or letters of credit. Any interruption of supply or any price increase of raw materials could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. If we are required to obtain an alternate source for these materials or components, we may not be able to obtain pricing on as favorable terms or on terms comparable to our competitors. Additionally, we may be forced to pay additional transportation costs or to invest in capital projects or costly product redesigns and perform costly new product certification testing with respect to our impact- resistant products, in connection with moving to any alternate source of supply. We could experience a delay between the increased cost to us to obtain these raw materials, and our ability to increase the price of our products. If we are unable to pass on significant cost increases to our customers, our results of operations between periods may be negatively impacted. Any significant change in the terms that we have with our key suppliers or any interruption of supply or any price increase of raw materials could materially adversely affect our financial condition and liquidity. Our business currently is geographically concentrated in Florida and that concentration increased with our acquisition of NewSouth Window Solutions. All of our manufacturing facilities, except for one in Arizona, are located in Florida, where the substantial portion of our sales are made. We believe that focusing operations into manufacturing locations in Florida optimizes manufacturing efficiencies and logistics, and we believe that a focused approach to growing our market share within our core wind-borne debris markets in Florida, from the Gulf Coast to the mid-Atlantic, and certain international markets, will maximize value and return. Our acquisition of NewSouth Window Solutions increased our manufacturing and sales concentration in Florida, although we expect to expand NewSouth’s sales and market share in northern Florida and certain other southern coastal states. Our Western Window Systems manufacturing facility in Arizona and the markets served by that business in the Western United States may not provide adequate geographic diversification for our business, as we expect that the primary concentration of our business will continue to be in Florida, and another prolonged decline in the economy of the state of Florida or of certain coastal regions, a change in state and local building code requirements for hurricane protection, or any other adverse condition in the state or certain coastal regions, could cause a decline in the demand for our products, which could have an adverse impact on our sales and results of operations. Our operating results are substantially dependent on demand for our branded impact-resistant products, contemporary indoor/outdoor window and door systems and factory-direct, energy-efficient residential windows and doors. A majority of our net sales are derived from the sales of our branded impact-resistant products and on window and door systems for residential, commercial and multi-family markets. Accordingly, our future operating results will depend largely on the demand for our impact-resistant products by current and future customers, including additions to this product line that are subsequently introduced, as well as demand for the contemporary indoor/outdoor window and door systems sold by our Western Window Systems business. Net sales generated by our NewSouth Window Solutions business depends on a direct-to-consumer model and is supported by showrooms and in-home sales. Consequently, a portion of our future operating results are reliant on current and future customer demand for factory-direct, energy-efficient residential windows and doors. If our competitors release new products that are superior to our products in performance or price, or if we fail to update our impact-resistant products with any technological advances that are developed by us or our competitors or introduce new products in a timely manner, demand for our products may decline. In addition, the window and door industry can be subject to changing trends and consumer preferences. If we do not correctly gauge consumer trends for the various products and systems we offer and respond appropriately, customers may not purchase our products and our brand names may be impaired. Even if we react appropriately to changes in trends and consumer preferences, consumers may consider our brands to be outdated or associate our brands with styles - 13 - that are no longer popular or trend-setting. Any of these outcomes could create significant excess inventories for some products and missed opportunities for other products, which would have a material adverse effect on our brands, our business, results of operations and financial condition. A decline in demand for our impact-resistant products, our contemporary indoor/outdoor window and door systems or our new direct-to-consumer, energy- efficient residential windows and doors as a result of competition, technological change, changes in consumer preferences or other factors could have a material adverse effect on our ability to generate sales, which would negatively affect results of operations. Our recently completed acquisitions may result in, or involve activities that cause, increased expenses or unanticipated liabilities. As a result of our recent acquisitions of Western Window Systems and NewSouth Window Solutions, we have significantly more sales, assets and employees than we did prior to the transactions, which may require our management to devote a significant amount of time, resources and attention to the new product offerings or novel challenges, and/or away from the operations of our historically core impact-resistant windows and doors business. These potential diversions and distractions may result in, or involve activities that cause, increased expenses and unanticipated liabilities. Our business is subject to seasonal industry patterns and our revenue and profit can vary significantly throughout the year, which may adversely impact the timing of our cash flows and limit our liquidity at certain times of the year. Our business is seasonal, and our net revenues and operating results vary significantly from quarter to quarter based upon the timing of the building season in our markets. Our sales typically follow seasonal new construction and the repair and remodel industry patterns. Additionally, events like preparation for hurricane season and rebuilding and repairs in the months following a hurricane in the majority of the geographies where we market and sell our products generally creates peak sale volumes during the quarters in which those activities occur. Other quarterly sales volumes might be generally lower due to reduced repair and remodeling and new construction activity as a result of less favorable climate conditions in the majority of our geographic end markets. Failure to effectively manage our demand and production planning, inventory and overall operations in anticipation of or in response to seasonal fluctuations or changing seasonal fluctuations as a result of climate change, could negatively impact our liquidity profile during certain seasonal periods. Our substantial level of indebtedness could adversely affect our business and financial condition and prevent us from meeting our debt obligations. Our total gross indebtedness was $429.0 million, including the $50.0 million of recently issued Additional Senior Notes issued in January 2020, and we had an additional $78.0 million available for borrowing under our existing senior secured credit facilities. This high level of indebtedness could have important consequences, including: • • • increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic, industry, or competitive developments; requiring a substantial portion of our cash flows from operations to be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness, therefore reducing our ability to use our cash flows to fund operations, capital expenditures and future business opportunities; exposing us to the risk of increased interest rates to the extent of any future borrowings, including borrowings under the existing senior secured credit facilities; • making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our indebtedness, including the existing senior secured credit facilities and the notes, and any failure to comply with the obligations of any of our debt instruments, including restrictive covenants and borrowing conditions, could result in an event of default under the indenture governing the notes and the agreements governing such other indebtedness; - 14 - • • • restricting us from making strategic acquisitions or causing us to make non-strategic divestitures; limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, product and service development, debt service requirements, acquisitions and general corporate or other purposes; and limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business or market conditions and placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors who are less highly leveraged and who, therefore, may be able to take advantage of opportunities that our leverage may prevent us from exploiting. In addition, our senior secured credit facilities are priced on variable interest rates tied to the London Interbank Offering Rate, or LIBOR. In 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced its intent to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021. The discontinuance or modification of LIBOR or the introduction of alternative reference rates or other reforms to LIBOR could cause the interest rate calculated on our senior secured credit facilities to be materially different than expected. Unless alternative rates can be negotiated, our senior secured credit facilities may no longer adjust and may become fixed rate instruments at the time LIBOR ceases to exist. This would adversely affect our asset/liability management and could lead to more asset and liability mismatches and interest rate risk unless appropriate LIBOR alternatives are developed. The cessation of LIBOR may also cause confusion that could disrupt the capital and credit markets and result in our inability to access capital required in the future to finance, among other things, acquisitions, working capital and capital expenditures. Our ability to make scheduled payments on or to refinance our debt obligations depends on our financial condition and operating performance, which is subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business, and other factors beyond our control. We may not be able to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness. Economic and credit market conditions impact our ability to collect receivables. Economic and credit conditions can negatively impact our bad debt expense, which can adversely impact our results of operations. Some of the markets we serve, which includes dealers whose customers are second and vacation home owners in the repair and remodeling sector, are more sensitive to changes in economic and credit conditions. If economic and credit conditions deteriorate, we may experience difficulties collecting on our accounts receivable, increasing our days sales outstanding and base debts owed to us, which could adversely impact our results of operations and business. The industry in which we compete is highly competitive. The window and door industry is highly competitive. We face significant competition from numerous small, regional producers, as well as certain national producers. Furthermore, the impact-resistant window and door market in our primary market of Florida has recently attracted domestic and foreign competitors. Any of these competitors may (i) foresee the course of market development more accurately than do we, (ii) develop products that are superior to our products, (iii) have the ability to produce similar products at a lower cost or compete more aggressively in pricing, or (iv) adapt more quickly to new technologies or evolving customer requirements than do we. Additionally, some of the competitors of our businesses are larger and have greater financial and other resources and less debt than us. Accordingly, these competitors may be better able to withstand changes in conditions within the industries and markets in which we operate and may have significantly greater operating and financial flexibility than we have. Moreover, barriers to entry are low in most product lines and new competitors may enter our industry, especially if the market for impact-resistant windows and doors continues to expand. An increase in competition, including in the form of aggressive pricing by new market entrants and offerings of alternative building materials, could cause us to lose customers and lead to decreases in net sales and - 15 - profitability if we are not able to respond adequately to such challenges. To the extent we lose customers in the renovation and remodeling markets, we would likely have to market more to the new home construction market, which historically has experienced more significant fluctuations in demand. If we do not realize the expected benefits from our recent acquisitions, including synergies, from the NewSouth Window Solutions acquisition, our business and results of operations will suffer. There is no assurance that the NewSouth Window Solutions business will be successfully or cost-effectively integrated into our existing business, or that the synergies expected from that acquisition will be achieved. In addition, although we have made progress in integrating Western Window Systems into our business, those integration efforts are ongoing and there is no assurance that they will ultimately be successful. Our NewSouth Window Solutions business serves a residential market segment, primarily driven by replacement projects, and relatively small order sizes that our dealer network typically does not target and serve, and that we have never served prior to the NewSouth acquisition. The process of simultaneously integrating the business operations of Western Window Systems and NewSouth Window Solutions may cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the activities of our historical business. If our management is not able to effectively manage the integration process, or if any significant business activities are interrupted as a result of the integration process, our business could suffer and its liquidity, results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely impacted. In addition, as we continue our integration activities, we may identify additional risks and uncertainties not yet known to us. Even if we are able to successfully combine the business operations of Western Window Systems, NewSouth Window Solutions and our legacy business, it may not be possible to realize the full benefits of the increased sales volume and other benefits, including the expected synergies, that are expected to result from the Western Window Systems and NewSouth Window Solutions acquisitions, or realize these benefits within the time frame that is expected. For example, the elimination of duplicative costs may not be possible or may take longer than anticipated, or the benefits from these recent acquisitions may be offset by costs incurred or delays in integrating the companies. Our expected cost savings, as well as any revenue or other synergies, are subject to significant business, economic, regulatory and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. If we fail to realize the benefits, we anticipated from the Western Window Systems and/or NewSouth Window Solutions acquisitions, our liquidity, results of operations or financial condition may be adversely effected. We rely, and expect to continue to rely on third-party transportation, which subjects us to risks and costs that we cannot control, and which risks and costs may materially adversely affect our profitability. We rely, and expect to continue to rely on, third party trucking companies to transport raw materials to the manufacturing facilities used by each of our businesses and to ship finished products to customers. These transport operations are subject to various hazards and risks, including extreme weather conditions, work stoppages and operating hazards, as well as interstate transportation regulations. In addition, the methods of transportation we utilize may be subject to additional, more stringent and more costly regulations in the future. If we are delayed or unable to ship finished products or unable to obtain raw materials as a result of any such new regulations or public policy changes related to transportation safety, or these transportation companies fail to operate properly, or if there were significant changes in the cost of these services due to new or additional regulations, or otherwise, we may not be able to arrange efficient alternatives and timely means to obtain raw materials or ship goods, which could result in a material adverse effect on our revenues and costs of operations. Transportation costs represent a significant part of our cost structure. If our transportation costs increased substantially, due to prolonged increases in fuel prices or otherwise, we may not be able to control them or pass the increased costs onto customers, which may materially adversely affect our profitability. - 16 - Our business will suffer if certain key officers and employees discontinue employment with us or if we are unable to recruit and retain highly skilled staff at a competitive cost. The success of our business depends upon the skills, experience, and efforts of our key officers and employees. In recent years, we have hired key executives who have and will continue to be integral in the continuing transformation of our business. The loss of key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We do not maintain key-man life insurance policies on any members of management. Our business also depends on our ability to continue to recruit, train, and retain skilled employees, particularly skilled engineering, operations and sales personnel. The loss of the services of any key personnel, or our inability to hire new personnel with the requisite skills, could impair our ability to develop new products or enhance existing products, sell products to our customers or manage our business effectively. Should we lose the services of any member of our senior management team, our board of directors would have to conduct a search for a qualified replacement. This search may be prolonged, and we may not be able to locate and hire a qualified replacement. A significant increase in the wages paid by competing employers could result in a reduction of our qualified labor force, increases in the wage rates that we must pay, or both. We may be adversely affected by any disruptions to our manufacturing facilities or disruptions to our customer, supplier, or employee base. All but one of our manufacturing and operating facilities are currently located in Florida, which is a hurricane-sensitive area. In 2017 and 2018, Hurricane Irma significantly impacted our customers and markets. Any disruption to our facilities resulting from hurricanes and other weather-related events, fire, acts of terrorism, or any other cause could damage a significant portion of our inventory, affect our distribution of products, and materially impair our ability to manufacture our products and to distribute our products to customers. We could incur significantly higher costs and longer lead times associated with distributing our products to our customers during the time that it takes for us to reopen or replace a damaged facility. In addition, if there are disruptions to our customer and supplier base or to our employees caused by hurricanes, our business could be temporarily adversely affected by higher costs for materials, increased shipping and storage costs, increased labor costs, increased absentee rates, and scheduling issues. While our business does not currently rely heavily on international suppliers or sales, significant disruptions in global economic conditions, travel or trade, including as a result of contagious disease such as the recent outbreak of coronavirus in Wuhan, China, may have material adverse impacts on our supply chain. Furthermore, some of our direct and indirect suppliers have unionized work forces, and strikes, work stoppages, or slowdowns experienced by these suppliers could result in slowdowns or closures of their facilities. Any interruption in the production or delivery of our supplies could reduce sales of our products and increase our costs. We depend on hiring an adequate number of hourly employees to operate our business and are subject to government regulations concerning these and our other employees, including wage and hour regulations. Our workforce is comprised primarily of employees who work on an hourly basis. To grow our operations and meet the needs and expectations of our customers, we must attract, train, and retain a large number of hourly associates, while at the same time controlling labor costs. These positions have historically had high turnover rates, which can lead to increased training, retention and other costs. In certain areas where we operate, there is significant competition for employees. The lack of availability of an adequate number of hourly employees, or our inability to attract and retain them, or an increase in wages and benefits to current employees, could adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. We are subject to applicable rules and regulations relating to our relationship with our employees, including wage and hour regulations, health benefits, unemployment and payroll taxes, overtime and working conditions and immigration status. Accordingly, federal, state or locally legislated increases in the minimum wage, as well as increases in additional labor cost components such as employee benefit costs, workers’ compensation insurance rates, compliance costs and fines, would increase our labor costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. - 17 - The homebuilding industry and the home repair and remodeling sector are subject to regulation. The homebuilding industry and the home repair and remodeling sector are subject to various local, state, and federal statutes, ordinances, rules, and regulations concerning zoning, building design and safety, construction, and similar matters, including regulations that impose restrictive zoning and density requirements in order to limit the number of homes that can be built within the boundaries of a particular area. Increased regulatory restrictions could limit demand for new homes and home repair and remodeling products and could negatively affect our sales and results of operations. Increases in interest rates used to finance home construction, repair and remodeling, such as mortgage, home equity loans and credit card interest rates, and the reduced availability of financing for the purchase of new homes and home construction repair and remodeling, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our sales depend in part upon consumers having the ability to access third-party financing for the purchase of new homes and buildings and the remodeling and repair of existing homes and buildings. The ability of consumers to finance these purchases is affected by the interest rates available for home mortgages, credit card debt, home equity or other lines of credit, and other sources of third-party financing. Interest rates in the majority of the regions where we market and sell our products have generally increased in recent years, most notably in the U.S. with the U.S. Each increase in the federal funds rate or applicable central bank’s prime rates could cause an increase in future interest rates applicable to mortgages, credit card debt, and other sources of third-party financing. If interest rates increase and, consequently, the ability of prospective buyers to finance purchases of new homes or home improvement products is adversely affected, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. In addition to increased interest rates, the ability of consumers to procure third-party financing is impacted by such factors as new and existing home prices, unemployment levels, high mortgage delinquency and foreclosure rates, and lower housing turnover. Adverse developments affecting any of these factors could result in the imposition of more restrictive lending standards by financial institutions and reduce the ability of some consumers to finance home purchases or repair and remodeling expenditures. Sales fluctuations to and changes in our relationships with key customers could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. Some of our business lines and markets are dependent on a few key customers, including dealers. We generally do not enter into written or long-term agreements with our customers. The loss, reduction, or fluctuation of sales to one of these major customers, or any adverse change in our business relationship with any one or more of them, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. Some of our key customers are companies that have experienced and may continue to experience consolidation in their ownership or expand through internal growth. Consolidation could decrease the number of potential customers for our products and increase our reliance on key customers. Further, any increase in the ownership concentration or size of our key customers could result in our key customers seeking more favorable terms, including pricing, for the products that they purchase from us. Accordingly, any increase in ownership concentration of our key customers or other increases in the size of our customers may further limit our ability to maintain or raise prices in the future. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Changes in building codes could reduce the demand for our impact-resistant windows and doors, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. The market for our impact-resistant windows and doors depends in large part on our ability to satisfy state and local building codes that require protection from wind-borne debris. If the standards in such building codes - 18 - become more stringent, we may not be able to meet their requirements, and demand for our products could decline. Conversely, if the standards in such building codes are lowered or are not enforced in certain areas because of industry lobbying or otherwise, demand for our impact-resistant products may decrease. In addition, if states and regions that are affected by hurricanes but do not currently have such building codes fail to adopt and enforce hurricane protection building codes, our ability to expand our business in such markets may be limited. We are also subject to energy efficiency codes and performance standards in Colorado, California and other states where we operate, several of which are more stringent than those to which we have historically been subject. Any such changes in building codes or energy efficiency codes could lower the demand for our impact- resistant windows and doors, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. The homebuilding industry and the home repair and remodeling sector are subject to various local, state, and federal statutes, ordinances, rules, and regulations concerning zoning, building design and safety, construction, and similar matters, including regulations that impose restrictive zoning and density requirements in order to limit the number of homes that can be built within the boundaries of a particular area. Increased regulatory restrictions could limit demand for new homes and home repair and remodeling products and could negatively affect our sales and results of operations. We may be adversely affected by any disruption in our information technology systems or by unauthorized intrusions or “hacking” into those systems and theft of information from them, or other cybersecurity-related incidents. Our operations are dependent upon our information technology systems, which encompass all of our major business functions. A disruption in our information technology systems for any prolonged period could result in delays in receiving inventory and supplies or filling customer orders and adversely affect our customer service and relationships. Various third parties, including computer hackers, who are continually becoming more aggressive and sophisticated, may attempt to penetrate our network security and, if successful, misappropriate confidential customer, employee and/or supplier information. In addition, one of our employees, contractors or other third parties with whom we do business may attempt to circumvent our security measures in order to obtain such information, or inadvertently cause a breach involving such information. While we have implemented systems and processes to protect against unauthorized access to or use of secured data and to prevent data loss and theft, there is no guarantee that these procedures are adequate to safeguard against all data security breaches or misuse of the data. The regulatory environment related to information security, data collection and use, and privacy is increasingly rigorous, with new and frequently changing requirements, and compliance with those requirements could result in additional costs. These costs associated with information security, such as increased investment in technology, the costs of compliance with privacy laws, and costs incurred to prevent or remediate information security breaches, could be substantial and adversely impact our business. A significant compromise of sensitive employee, customer or supplier information in our possession could result in legal damages and regulatory penalties. In addition, the costs of defending such actions or remediating breaches could be material. Security breaches could also harm our reputation with our customers and retail partners, potentially leading to decreased revenues, and with federal and state government agencies and bodies. Operation on multiple Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) information systems, and the conversion from multiple systems to a single system, may negatively impact our operations. We are highly dependent on our ERP information systems infrastructure in order to process orders, track inventory, ship products in a timely manner, prepare invoices to our customers, maintain regulatory compliance and otherwise carry on our business in the ordinary course. We currently operate on four ERP information systems. Since we must process and reconcile our information from multiple systems, the chance of errors is increased, and we may incur significant additional costs related thereto. Inconsistencies in the information from multiple ERP systems could adversely impact our ability to manage our business efficiently and may result in heightened risk to our ability to maintain our books and records and comply with regulatory requirements. Any - 19 - of the foregoing could result in a material increase in information technology compliance or other related costs and could materially negatively impact our operations. In the future, we may transition all or a portion of our systems to one ERP system. The transition to a different ERP system involves numerous risks, including: • • • • • diversion of management’s attention away from normal daily business operations; loss of, or delays in accessing data; increased demand on our operations support personnel; initial dependence on unfamiliar systems while training personnel to use new systems; and increased operating expenses resulting from training, conversion and transition support activities. Any of the foregoing could result in a material increase in information technology compliance or other related costs and could materially negatively impact our operations. The nature of our business exposes us to product liability, warranty and other claims. We are, from time to time, involved in product liability, product warranty and other claims relating to the products we manufacture and distribute that, if adversely determined, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. In addition, we may be exposed to potential claims arising from the conduct of homebuilders and home remodelers and their sub-contractors. Although we currently maintain what we believe to be suitable and adequate insurance in excess of our self-insured amounts, we may not be able to maintain such insurance on acceptable terms or such insurance may not provide adequate protection against potential liabilities. Product liability claims can be expensive to defend and can divert the attention of management and other personnel for significant periods, regardless of the ultimate outcome. Claims of this nature could also have a negative impact on customer confidence in our products and our company. Other parties may infringe on our intellectual property rights or may allege that we have infringed on theirs. Competitors or other third parties may infringe on or otherwise make unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights, including product designs, manufacturing practices, registered intellectual property and other rights. We rely on a variety of measures to protect our intellectual property and proprietary information. However, these measures may not prevent misappropriation or infringement of our intellectual property or proprietary information and a resulting loss of competitive advantage. If we determine that such infringement or use has occurred, legal action to enforce our rights may require us to spend significant amounts in legal costs, even if we ultimately prevail. Conversely, given the nature of our business and product designs, competitors or other third parties may allege that we, or consultants or other third parties retained or indemnified by us, have infringed on their intellectual property rights. Even though we believe such claims and allegations of intellectual property infringement would be without merit, defending against such claims would be time consuming and expensive and could result in the diversion of time and attention of our management and employees. Given the rapidly changing and highly competitive business environment in which we operate, and the increasingly complex designs of our products and other companies’ similar products, the outcome of any contemplated intellectual property-related litigation would be difficult to predict and could cause us to lose significant revenue, to be prohibited from using the relevant designs, systems, processes, technologies or other intellectual property, to cease offering certain products or services or to incur significant license, royalty or technology development expenses. We conduct all of our operations through our subsidiaries and rely on payments from our subsidiaries to meet all of our obligations. We are a holding company and derive all of our operating income from our subsidiary, PGT Industries, Inc., and its subsidiaries, CGI, WinDoor, WWS Acquisition, LLC, doing business as Western Window Systems, as - 20 - well as from the entities acquired in the NewSouth Window Solutions acquisition. All of our assets are held by our subsidiaries, and we rely on the earnings and cash flows of our subsidiaries to meet our obligations. The ability of our subsidiaries to make payments to us will depend on their respective operating results and may be restricted by, among other things, the laws of their jurisdictions of organization (which may limit the amount of funds available for distributions to us), the terms of existing and future indebtedness and other agreements of our subsidiaries, including our credit facilities, and the covenants of any future outstanding indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur. We may be adversely impacted by the loss of sales or market share if we are unable to keep up with demand. We are currently experiencing growth through higher sales volume and growth in market share. To meet the increased demand, we have been hiring and training new employees for direct and indirect support and adding to our glass capacity. However, should we be unable to find and retain quality employees to meet demand, or should there be disruptions to the increase in capacity, we may be unable to keep up with our higher sales demand. If our lag time on delivery falls behind, or we are unable to meet customer timing demands, we could lose market share to competitors. We may evaluate and engage in asset dispositions, acquisitions, joint ventures and other transactions that may impact our results of operations, and we may not achieve the expected results from these transactions. From time to time, and subject to the agreements governing our then existing debt or otherwise, we may enter into agreements to and engage in business combinations, purchases of assets or contractual arrangements or joint ventures, including in geographical areas outside the state of Florida, with which we do not have the level of familiarity that we have with the Florida market. In addition, some of those business acquisitions or combinations could involve a seller whose products may be different from the types of products we currently sell, and they could be products that are sold to different types of customers. Subject to the agreements governing our then existing debt or otherwise, some of these transactions may be financed with additional borrowings. The integration of any business we may acquire may be disruptive to us and may result in a significant diversion of management attention and operational resources. Additionally, we may suffer a loss of key employees, customers or suppliers, loss of revenues, increases in costs or other difficulties. If the expected revenue enhancement plans, strategies, goals, efficiencies and synergies from any such transactions are not fully realized, our results of operations could be adversely affected, because of the costs associated with such transactions or otherwise. Other transactions may advance future cash flows from some of our businesses, thereby yielding increased short-term liquidity, but consequently resulting in lower cash flows from these operations over the longer term. In addition, if the goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, or other intangible assets that we have acquired or may acquire in the future are determined to be impaired, we may be required to record a non-cash charge to earnings during the period in which the impairment is determined, which could be significant. The failure to realize the expected long-term benefits of any one or more of these transactions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. We are subject to potential exposure to environmental liabilities and are subject to environmental regulation. We are subject to various federal, state, and local environmental laws, ordinances, and regulations. Although we believe that our facilities are in material compliance with such laws, ordinances, and regulations, as owners and lessees of real property, we can be held liable for the investigation or remediation of contamination on such properties, in some circumstances, without regard to whether we knew of or were responsible for such contamination. Remediation may be required in the future as a result of spills or releases of petroleum products or hazardous substances, the discovery of unknown environmental conditions, or more stringent standards regarding existing residual contamination. More burdensome environmental regulatory requirements may increase our general and administrative costs and may increase the risk that we may incur fines or penalties or be held liable for violations of such regulatory requirements. - 21 - Despite our level of indebtedness, we and our subsidiaries will still be able to incur substantial additional amounts of debt, including secured debt, which could further exacerbate the risks associated with our substantial indebtedness. We and our subsidiaries will still be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. Although the indenture governing the notes and the existing senior secured credit facilities contain restrictions on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, these restrictions are subject to a number of significant qualifications and exceptions, and under certain circumstances, the amount of indebtedness that could be incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be substantial. If new debt is added to our existing debt levels, the related risks that we now face would increase. In addition, the indenture governing the notes and the existing senior secured credit facilities will not prevent us from incurring obligations that do not constitute prohibited indebtedness thereunder. From time to time we are subject to legal and regulatory proceedings which seek material damages from us. These proceedings may be negatively perceived by the public and materially and adversely affect our business. We are subject to legal and regulatory proceedings from time to time which may result in material damages. Although we do not presently believe that any of our current legal or regulatory proceedings will ultimately have a material adverse impact on our financial performance or operations, we cannot assure you that we will not incur material damages or penalties in a lawsuit or other proceeding in the future and/or significant defense costs related to such lawsuits or regulatory proceedings. For example, many of our products are installed in large, multi-unit condominiums or similar developments, and we may face legal claims for breach of warranties or other claims alleging product defects on a large-scale in connection with such projects. Also, we operate a fleet of delivery trucks and, in addition to the significant compliance-related costs associated with operating such a fleet, we may incur significant adverse judgments, damages and penalties related to accidents that those trucks may be involved in from time to time. Significant adverse judgments, penalties, settlement amounts, amounts needed to post a bond pending an appeal or defense costs could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and capital resources. It is also possible that, as a result of a present or future governmental or other proceeding or settlement, significant restrictions will be placed upon, or significant changes made to, our business practices, operations or methods, including pricing or similar terms. Any such restrictions or changes may adversely affect our profitability or increase our compliance costs. Item 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS None. - 22 - Item 2.

WWS manufacturers its window and door products from its new approximately 170,000 square foot manufacturing and distribution facility in Phoenix. This facility is leased by WWS through the end of May 2027. We moved the operations of CGI into a new 325,000 square foot leased facility during 2017. This new facility is in Hialeah, Florida, and is leased through the end of 2028. WinDoor manufactures impact-resistant windows and doors from its approximately 320,000 square foot leased manufacturing and administrative facility in Orlando, Florida. This lease expires in February 2021. We also own three parcels of undeveloped land in North Venice, Florida, available for future construction needs we may have. Our leases discussed above expire between April 2020 and December 2028. The leases require us to pay taxes, insurance and common area maintenance expenses associated with the properties. - 23 - All of our owned properties secure borrowings under our credit agreement (dated February 16, 2016, as amended by the first amendment thereto, dated as of February 17, 2017, the second amendment thereto, dated as of March 16, 2018, the third amendment thereto, dated October 31, 2019, and as otherwise amended, restated, modified or supplemented, the “2016 Credit Agreement due 2022”). We believe these operating facilities are adequate in capacity and condition to service existing customer needs. Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We are involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. We carry insurance coverage in such amounts in excess of our self-insured retention as we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and that may or may not cover any or all of our liabilities in respect of claims and lawsuits. We do not expect that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. Item 4.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES Our Common Stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under its symbol of “PGTI”. On February 6, 2020, the closing price of our Common Stock was $16.18 as reported on the New York Stock Exchange. The approximate number of stockholders of record of our Common Stock on that date was approximately 2,800, although we believe that the number of beneficial owners of our Common Stock is substantially greater. Dividends We do not pay a regular dividend. Any determination relating to dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors. The terms of the agreements governing our outstanding borrowings restrict our ability to pay dividends. Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans The information required by this item appears in our definitive proxy statement for our annual meeting of stockholders under the caption “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” and “Equity Compensation Plan Information,” which information is incorporated herein by reference.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in Item 8. Management’s Discussion and Analysis comparing the results for the year ended December 29, 2018 to the results for the year ended December 30, 2017 can be found in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2019, which is hereby incorporated by reference. Our MD&A is presented in seven sections: • Executive Overview; • Results of Operations; • Liquidity and Capital Resources; • Disclosures of Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments; • Critical Accounting Estimates; • Recently Issued Accounting Standards; and • Forward Outlook EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW Sales and Operations Our sales grew to $745.0 million in our 2019 fiscal year, an increase of 7%, compared to 2018. Sales in 2019 includes $138.3 million from WWS, compared with WWS sales of $49.7 million in the post-acquisition period in 2018 from August 13, 2018, an increase of $88.6 million. We believe WWS experienced organic growth of approximately 10% for 2019, with sales growth in its emerging markets more than offsetting decreases in sales to its core market of California. The benefit to the Company of the sales growth at WWS was more than offset by a decrease in sales in our legacy products. In 2018, we saw record-setting growth as sales of our impact- resistant products benefitted from the rebuilding and repair activity, and the heightened awareness of the benefits of impact products, resulting from two major hurricanes in 2017. Our sales to the repair and remodel market were $376.6 million in 2019, a decrease of 9%, compared to 2018. Our sales into the new construction market were $368.4 million in 2019, an increase of 30%, as compared to 2018, driven primarily by a full year of WWS sales in 2019. Our impact-resistant product sales were $516.1 million in 2019, a decrease of 8%, as compared to 2018. Sales of non-impact products were $228.9 million in 2019, an increase of 67%, compared to 2018, also driven by a full year of WWS sales in 2019. Gross profit was $260.4 million for our 2019 fiscal year, which increased 7% when compared to 2018. Our gross profit increased primarily due to higher sales volume. Gross margin was 35.0% in 2019, compared to 34.9% in 2018. Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $176.3 million for 2019, an increase of $25.4 million compared to 2018. SG&A in 2019 includes the SG&A of WWS of $50.6 million for the full year of 2019, which includes $9.4 million in non-cash amortization expense, compared with $19.5 million of SG&A in the 2018 post-acquisition period measured from August 13, 2018, and $3.6 million in non-cash amortization. Excluding the effects of the inclusion of WWS for the entire year of 2019, and the post-acquisition period in 2018, SG&A for 2019 decreased 4% due to lower personnel-related costs, including lower incentive compensation costs and a decrease in administrative headcount. In addition, acquisition costs in 2019 relating to the NewSouth Acquisition were lower than 2018 acquisition costs of the WWS Acquisition by approximately $2.3 million. In total, non-cash intangible amortization was $15.9 million in 2019, increasing $5.6 million due to the inclusion of a full year of amortization of the intangibles acquired in the WWS Acquisition. Interest expense was $26.4 million in 2019, which was flat compared with 2018. Interest expense in 2018 includes a higher level of non-cash amortization of deferred financing costs from the significant amount of - 28 - prepayments under our 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. Excluding the accelerated non-cash amortization in 2018, interest expense increased by 26%, primarily due to the higher level of outstanding debt during 2019 associated with the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, which were issued in August 2018, but outstanding for the entire year during 2019. Our net income in 2019 was $43.7 million, a decrease of $10.2 million when compared to 2018. Although our net income benefitted from the higher level of sales, which drove an increase in gross profit, the increase in our SG&A expense from the inclusion of WWS for the full year of 2019 more than offset the higher gross profit. Net income in 2019 was also impacted by a lower level of excess tax benefits from option exercises and vesting in restricted equity, which was $2.1 million in 2019, compared with $5.2 million in 2018. Liquidity and Cash Flow During 2019, we generated $81.2 million in cash flow from operations, a decrease of $19.1 million, compared to 2018. In 2018, operating cash flows included $19.0 million in cash received from Cardinal, one of our glass suppliers, in connection with our sales of certain door glass manufacturing equipment to Cardinal and a related supply agreement. Cash generated from operations was generally used to fund operations and investing cash flows, which was primarily composed of capital expenditures in 2019. However, in 2020, we consummated the NewSouth Acquisition, which was funded with proceeds from the Additional Senior Notes and cash on hand. On May 22, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a share repurchase program of up to $30 million. During 2019, we made opportunistic repurchases of 393,819 shares of our common stock at a cost of $5.5 million, representing capital returned to our shareholders. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for a more detailed discussion of this event.

The following table shows net sales by segment (in millions, except percentages): Product category: Southeast segment Western segment Total net sales Year Ended December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 Sales % of sales Sales % of sales % change $ $ 595.1 149.9 745.0 79.9% $ 20.1% 636.4 62.1 91.1% (6.5%) 8.9% 141.4% 100.0% $ 698.5 100.0% 6.7% Net sales of our Southeast segment were $595.1 million in 2019, compared with $636.4 million in 2018, a decrease of $41.3 million. Net sales of our Western segment were $149.9 million in 2019, compared with $62.1 million in 2018, an increase of $87.8 million. Sales of our Western segment are primarily composed of sales of WWS, which were $138.3 million in the 2019, compared with $49.7 million in 2018, measured from the date of the WWS acquisition on August 13, 2018. The increase in net sales in 2019 of $46.5 million was driven by the net increase in sales of $88.6 million from WWS, partially offset by the $41.3 million decline in sales of our Southeast segment, which includes a $38.8 million decrease in sales into the repair and remodel market, primarily due to strong 2018 repair and remodel sales driven by an active hurricane season in 2017. Sales in 2019 were also negatively affected by the disruptions to many of our customers’ operations caused by Hurricane Dorian in late August 2019, which resulted in a decrease in orders and shipments for us. Gross profit and gross margin Gross profit was $260.4 million in 2019, an increase of $16.9 million, or 6.9%, from $243.5 million in the prior year. Gross profit increased on the higher level of sales in 2019, compared with 2018, due to the inclusion of WWS for the entire year of 2019, compared with only the post-acquisition period in 2018. The increase in gross profit from the inclusion of WWS for the entire year was partially offset by a decrease in sales of our PGT legacy products in 2019, after a record-setting year in 2018, which was driven by a significant increase in rebuilding and repair activity in 2018, and heightened awareness of the benefits of impact-resistant products, resulting from an active hurricane season in 2017, including the impact of Hurricane Irma in Florida. Gross margin was 35.0% in 2019, compared to 34.9% in the prior year, a percentage-point increase of 0.1%. This slight improvement in gross margin in 2019 was due primarily to the addition of WWS, which benefitted gross margin by 2.2%. Gross margin also benefitted from increases in our product prices in early 2019, and improvements in operating efficiencies. These margin improvements were offset by the unfavorable effects of a shift in the mix of sales to lower margin products, the decrease in volume in our PGT legacy products, which unfavorably impacted our operating leverage, and slightly increased material costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses SG&A expenses for 2019 were $176.3 million, an increase of $25.4 million, or 16.8%, from $150.9 million in the prior year. The increase in SG&A is primarily the result of the inclusion of the SG&A expenses of WWS for the entire year in 2019, compared with only the post-acquisition-period in 2018, which resulted in an increase - 30 - in SG&A of $31.1 million, including an increase of $5.8 million in amortization of the amortizable intangible asset acquired in the WWS acquisition. Excluding the increase in SG&A from the inclusion of WWS, SG&A decreased $5.7 million in 2019, compared to 2018. The decrease in SG&A was primarily driven by a decrease of personnel-related costs, and a net decrease in acquisition costs of $2.3 million. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in selling and distribution costs for our non-WWS businesses in 2019 compared to 2018, and by an unusually high level of bad debt expense recorded in the second quarter of 2019, an increase in marketing costs, and higher professional fees in 2019. Gains on sales of assets under APA On September 22, 2017, we entered into an agreement with Cardinal, one of our glass suppliers, for the sale to Cardinal of certain manufacturing equipment we used in processing glass components for PGT-branded doors. Certain of that equipment was transferred to Cardinal in 2017, and substantially all of the remaining machinery and equipment was transferred to Cardinal during the second quarter of 2018. The equipment and machinery transferred in 2018 had a net book value of $3.2 million and fair value of $5.8 million. We recognized gains on disposals for the difference totaling $2.6 million during 2018, classified as a separate line item in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for year ended December 29, 2018. Interest expense Interest expense was $26.4 million in 2019, a decrease of $0.1 million from $26.5 million in the prior year. Interest expense in 2018 includes $5.6 million of accelerated amortization of lenders fees and discount relating to the prepayment of $152.0 million of borrowings under the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 that we made on September 18, 2018 and the voluntary prepayment of $8.0 million we made on December 19, 2018. There were no prepayments of term loan borrowings during 2019. Excluding the $5.6 million of accelerated amortization, interest expense increased $5.4 million in 2019, compared to 2018. The increase in interest expense is due primarily to the issuance of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, composed of $315.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% unsecured senior notes due 2026. The 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 carry a higher per-annum interest rate and have a higher principal amount outstanding than borrowings under the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. This increase in interest expense was partially offset by the interest-reducing effects of the prepayment of $152.0 million in borrowings under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 from the proceeds of the equity issuance we completed in September 2018, and the voluntary prepayment of $8.0 million we made on December 19, 2018. Debt extinguishment costs Debt extinguishment costs were $1.5 million in 2019. In connection with the Third Amendment, certain existing lenders changed their positions in or exited the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in the write-offs of portions of the deferred financing costs and original issue discount allocated to these lenders. Additionally, at the time of the issuance of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, certain existing lenders reduced their positions in the revolving credit portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in the write-offs of the deferred financing costs allocated to these lenders. As such, write-offs totaling $1.5 million is classified as debt extinguishment costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 29, 2018. Debt extinguishment costs were $3.4 million in 2018. In connection with the Second Amendment, certain existing lenders changed their positions in or exited the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in the write-offs of portions of the deferred financing costs and original issue discount allocated to these lenders. Additionally, at the time of the issuance of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, certain existing lenders reduced their positions in the revolving credit portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in the write-offs of the deferred financing costs allocated to these lenders. As such, write-offs totaling $3.4 million is classified as debt extinguishment costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 29, 2018. - 31 - Income from operations Income from operations was $84.1 million in 2019, a decrease of $11.0 million, from $95.1 million in 2018. Income from operations in 2019 includes $73.5 million from our Southeast segment and $10.6 million from our Western segment, compared to $90.1 million and $5.0 million from our Southeast and Western segments, respectively, in 2018, all after allocation of corporate operating costs in both periods. The decrease in income from operations in 2019 compared to 2018 is a result of the increase in SG&A, including higher amortization. Income from operations also includes the gains on sales of assets under the asset purchase agreement with Cardinal of $2.6 million in 2018. Income tax expense Income tax expense was $12.4 million for 2019, representing an effective tax rate of 22.2%. This compares to income tax expense of $11.3 million for 2018, representing an effective tax rate of 17.3%. Income tax expense in 2019, and 2018, includes excess tax benefits relating to exercises of stock options and lapses of restrictions on stock awards, treated as a discrete item of income tax, totaling $2.1 million and $5.2 million, respectively. Also, income tax expense in 2018 includes an adjustment of $231 thousand in tax expense relating to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”). Excluding the effects of these discrete items in income tax expense, and certain tax credits received in each period, our effective tax rate in 2019 would have been 25.9%, compared to 25.3% in 2018. As a result of a reduction in the corporate income tax rate in the state of Florida, from 5.5% to 4.458% for the tax years of 2019 to 2021, our current effective tax rate, excluding the discrete item discussed above, approximates our combined statutory federal and state rate of approximately 25.0% for 2019. We expect to continue to be profitable in 2020, and thus, that we will incur income tax expense at a combined Federal and state effective rate of between approximately 25% to 26%. This rate is based on the corporate income tax rate of 21% under the TCJA, plus a blended statutory state rate, taking into consideration the temporary reduction in rate in the state of Florida. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Our principal source of liquidity is cash flow generated by operations, supplemented by borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility, if ever needed. Our cash generating capability provides us with financial flexibility in meeting operating and investing needs. Our primary capital requirements are to fund working capital needs, and to meet required debt payments, including debt service payments on borrowings and fund capital expenditures. Consolidated Cash Flows The following table summarizes our cash flow results for 2019 and 2018: (in millions) Cash provided by operating activities Cash used in investing activities Cash (used in) provided by financing activities Increase in cash and cash equivalents Components of Cash Flows 2019 $ 81.2 (31.2) (5.4) $ 44.6 2018 $ 100.3 (378.4) 296.7 $ 18.6 Operating activities. Cash provided by operating activities was $81.2 million for 2019, compared to $100.3 million for 2018. - 32 - The decrease in cash flows from operations of $19.1 million in 2019 compared to 2018 was primarily due to the cash received in 2018 under the Cardinal equipment purchase agreement, of which $19.0 million was classified as operating cash flow, which did not recur in 2019. Other changes in operating cash flows include an increase of $71.4 million in collections from customers in 2019 compared to 2018, as the result of increased sales, which was partially offset by an increase in payments to suppliers of $44.9 million as the result of higher procurements of inventory, an increase in personnel related disbursements of $21.3 million due to a larger number of employees during 2019, compared to 2018, and an increase in debt service costs of $13.4 million in 2019, compared to 2018, primarily as a result of the issuance of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026. Also, in 2019, net tax payments decreased $7.6 million in 2019, compared to 2018, due to a federal tax payment of $9.0 million in January 2018 as the result of our ability to defer our fourth quarter 2017 estimated federal tax payment due to the extension of time to January 2018 to make that payment for companies affected by Hurricane Irma. Other collections of cash and other cash activity, net, increased by $0.5 million, primarily related to sales of scrap aluminum. Direct cash flows from operations for 2019 and 2018 are presented below: (in millions) Collections from customers Other collections of cash Disbursements to suppliers Personnel related disbursements Debt service costs Income tax payments, net Cash received from Cardinal under purchase agreement Other cash activity, net Cash from operations Direct Operating Cash Flows 2019 $ 765.8 8.1 (475.6) (180.8) (24.5) (11.9) — 0.1 2018 $ 694.4 7.6 (430.7) (159.5) (11.1) (19.5) 19.0 0.1 $ 81.2 $ 100.3 Day’s sales outstanding (DSO), which we calculate as accounts receivable divided by average daily sales, was 42 days on December 28, 2019, compared to 40 days on December 29, 2018. Inventory on hand as of December 28, 2019, was $43.9 million, a decrease of $0.8 million from December 29, 2018. Our inventory consists principally of raw materials purchased for the manufacture of our products and limited finished goods inventory as the majority of our products are custom, made-to-order products. Our inventory levels are more closely aligned with our number of product offerings rather than our level of sales. We have maintained our inventory level to have (i) raw materials required to support new product launches; (ii) a sufficient level of safety stock on certain items to ensure an adequate supply of material in the event of a sudden increase in demand and given our short lead-times; and (iii) adequate lead times for raw materials purchased from overseas suppliers in bulk supply. Inventory turns for the year ended December 28, 2019, was 10.9 times, on par with 11.0 times for the year ended December 29, 2018. Management monitors and evaluates raw material inventory levels based on the need for each discrete item to fulfill short-term requirements calculated from current order patterns and to provide appropriate safety stock. Because the majority of our products are made-to-order, we have only a small amount of finished goods and work in progress inventory. Due to these factors, we believe our inventories are not excessive, and we expect the value of such inventories will be realized. Investing activities. Cash used in investing activities was $31.2 million in 2019, compared to $378.4 million in 2018, a decrease in cash used of $347.2 million. We used $354.6 million of cash to acquire businesses in 2018, - 33 - whereas in 2019 we had no acquisitions. Also, in 2019, we used cash of $31.3 million for capital expenditures, compared to $29.8 million in 2018, an increase of $1.5 million in cash used. Finally, in 2019, we received proceeds of $71 thousand from the sales of property, plant and equipment, compared to $6.0 million in 2018, a decrease of $5.9 million in cash proceeds received from sales of property, plant and equipment, primarily due to cash received in 2018 from Cardinal under the terms of the purchase agreement, pursuant to which we sold certain door glass manufacturing assets to Cardinal. Financing activities. Cash used in financing activities was $5.4 million in 2019, compared with cash provided of $296.7 million in 2018, a decrease in cash provided of $302.1 million. In 2019, we entered into the Third Amendment of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in the repayment of the then existing term loan with proceeds under a new term loan in the amount of $64.0 million, with the exception of a net increase in borrowings of $25 thousand. This compares to 2018, in which we issued the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, which provided proceeds of $315.0 million. Also, in 2018, we issued Company common stock in the 2018 Equity Issuance, which provided net proceeds of $152.5 million. Using primarily the proceeds from the 2018 Equity Issuance, along with cash on hand, in 2018 we made repayments of long-term debt of nearly $160.3 million. We recorded payments of financing costs totaling $0.9 million in 2019, related to the Third Amendment, compared to $12.1 million in 2018, related to both the Second Amendment and the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026. In 2019, we also used $5.5 million in cash to make purchases of our common stock in open market transactions. See “Share Repurchase Program” below for more information. Taxes paid relating to common stock withheld from employees to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock awards were $0.5 million in 2019, compared to $0.7 million in 2018, a decrease in cash used of $0.2 million. Proceeds from the exercises of stock options were $1.6 million in 2019, compared to $2.2 million in 2018, a decrease in cash provided of $0.6 million. Share Repurchase Program. On May 22, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a share repurchase program of up to $30 million. The repurchases may be made in open market or private transactions from time to time. Repurchases of shares may be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit repurchases when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under applicable laws. The Company bases repurchase decisions, including the timing of repurchases, on factors such as the Company’s stock price, general economic and market conditions, the potential impact on the Company’s capital structure, the expected return on competing uses of capital such as strategic acquisitions and capital investments, and other corporate considerations, as determined by management. From the inception of the program on May 22, 2019, through December 28, 2019, we made repurchases of 393,819 shares of our common stock at a total cost of $5.5 million. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Capital Expenditures. Capital expenditures vary depending on prevailing business factors, including current and anticipated market conditions. In 2019 and 2018, we spent $31.3 million and $29.8 million, respectively, for capital expenditures, primarily representing equipment purchases and facility improvements expected to support growth. Management expects to spend between $28 million and $34 million for capital expenditures in 2020, excluding our NewSouth Acquisition. Our capital expenditure program is geared towards making investments in capital assets targeted at increasing both gross sales and margins, but also includes capital expenditures for maintenance capital. Capital Resources and Debt Covenants 2018 Equity Issuance On September 18, 2018, we completed an underwritten, public offering of 7,000,000 shares of our common stock, at a public offering price of $23.00 per share. The offering resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of $161.0 million. Net of an underwriting fee of $1.15 per share, net cash proceeds to the Company approximated $153.0 million. We used $152.0 million of - 34 - these proceeds to prepay borrowings outstanding under the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. The remainder of the proceeds were used for working capital or general corporate purposes, including payment of offering expenses of approximately $447 thousand, classified as a reduction of additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 29, 2018. 2018 Senior Notes Due 2026 On August 10, 2018, we completed the issuance of $315.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% senior notes (“2018 Senior Notes Due 2026”), issued at 100% of their principal amount. The 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 are jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s existing and future restricted subsidiaries, other than any restricted subsidiary of the Company that does not guarantee the existing senior secured credit facilities or any permitted refinancing thereof. The 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and the guarantors, respectively, and rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior debt and senior to all existing and future subordinated debt of the Company and the guarantors. The 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 were offered under Rule 144A of the Securities Act, and in transactions outside the United States under Regulation S of the Securities Act, and have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act. The 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 mature on August 10, 2026. Interest on the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 is payable semi-annually, in arrears, beginning on February 16, 2019, with interest accruing at a rate of 6.75% per annum from August 10, 2018. We incurred financing costs relating to bank fees and professional services costs relating to the offering and issuance of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 totaling $10.4 million, which is being amortized under the effective interest method. See “Deferred Financing Costs” below. As of December 28, 2019, the face value of debt outstanding under the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 was $315.0 million, and accrued interest totaled $8.7 million. The indenture for the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 gives us the ability to optionally redeem some or all of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 at the redemption prices and on the terms specified in the indenture governing the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026. The indenture governing the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 does not require us to make any mandatory redemptions or sinking fund payments. However, upon the occurrence of a change of control, as defined in the indenture, the Company is required to offer to repurchase the notes at 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. The indenture for the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 includes certain covenants limiting the ability of the Company and any guarantors to, (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends on or make distributions in respect of capital stock or make certain other restricted payments or investments; (iii) enter into agreements that restrict distributions from restricted subsidiaries; (iv) sell or otherwise dispose of assets; (v) enter into transactions with affiliates; (vi) create or incur liens; merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; (vii) place restrictions on the ability of subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to the Company; and (viii) designate the Company’s subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. On January 24, 2020, we completed the add-on issuance of $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% senior notes (“Additional Senior Notes”), issued at 106.375% of their principal amount, resulting in a premium to us of $3.2 million. The Additional Notes are part of the same issuance of, and rank equally and form a single series with, the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026. Proceeds from the Additional Senior Notes, including premium, were used, together with cash on hand, to pay the $92 million purchase price in the NewSouth Acquisition. 2016 Credit Agreement Due 2022 On February 16, 2016, we entered into the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, among us, the lending institutions identified in the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, and SunTrust Bank, as Administrative Agent and - 35 - Collateral Agent. The 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 established new senior secured credit facilities in an aggregate amount of $310.0 million, consisting of a $270.0 million Term B term loan facility maturing in February 2022 that amortized on a basis of 1% annually during its six-year term, and a $40.0 million revolving credit facility that was to mature in February 2021 that included a swing line facility and a letter of credit facility. On October 31, 2019, we entered into an amendment of our 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 (“Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment provides for, among other things, (i) a new three-year Term A loan in the aggregate principal amount of $64.0 million (the “Initial Term A Loan”), which refinances in full our existing Term B term loan facility under the 2016 Credit Agreement, and has no regularly scheduled amortization, and (ii) a new five-year revolving credit facility due 2024 in an aggregate principal amount of up to $80.0 million (the “New Revolving Facility”), which replaces our existing $40.0 million revolving credit facility under the 2016 Credit Agreement, and includes a swing-line facility and letter of credit facility. Our obligations under the 2016 Credit Agreement continue to be secured by substantially all of our assets, as well as our direct and indirect subsidiaries’ assets. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, interest on all loans under the 2016 Credit Agreement is payable either quarterly or at the expiration of any LIBOR interest period applicable thereto. The Third Amendment decreases the applicable interest rate margins for the Initial Term Loan A from (i) 2.50% to a spread of 1.00% to 1.75% based on our first lien net leverage ratio, in the case of the Base Rate Loans (with a floor of 100 basis points), and (ii) 3.50% to a spread ranging from 2.00% to 2.75% based on our first lien leverage ratio, in the case of the Eurodollar Loans (with a floor of zero basis points). Also, in connection with the Third Amendment, we will pay quarterly fees on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility equal to a percentage spread (ranging from 0.25% to 0.35%) based on our first lien net leverage ratio. The Third Amendment also modifies the springing financial covenant under the 2016 Credit Agreement to provide that such financial covenant will not be tested until the Initial Term A Loan is paid in full. As of December 28, 2019, there were $2.0 million of letters of credit outstanding and $78.0 million available under the revolver. Fees and costs relating to the Third Amendment were $0.9 million, which are deferred and being amortized. In connection with the Third Amendment, certain existing lenders modified their positions in or exited the 2016 Credit Agreement. Deferred financing costs and original issue discount allocated to these lenders of $1.5 million were written-off and classified as debt extinguishment costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 28, 2019. As of December 28, 2019, the principal amount of debt outstanding under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 was $64.0 million, and accrued interest was $280 thousand. On March 16, 2018, we entered into a second amendment of our 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. The Second Amendment, among other things, decreases the applicable interest rate margins for the Initial Term Loans (as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022) from (i) 3.75% to 2.50%, in the case of the Base Rate Loans (as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022), and (ii) 4.75% to 3.50%, in the case of the Eurodollar Loans (as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022). In connection with the Second Amendment, certain existing lenders changed their positions in or exited the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in the write-offs of portions of the deferred financing costs and original issue discount allocated to these lenders. Additionally, at the time of the issuance of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, certain existing lenders reduced their positions in the revolving credit portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in the write-offs of the deferred financing costs allocated to these lenders. As such, write-offs totaling $3.4 million is classified as debt extinguishment costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 29, 2018. Interest on all loans under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 is payable either quarterly or at the expiration of any LIBOR interest period applicable thereto. Prior to amending the 2016 Credit Agreement due - 36 - 2022 on March 16, 2018, as described above, borrowings under the term loans and the revolving credit facility accrued interest at a rate equal to, at our option, LIBOR (with a floor of 100 basis points in respect of the term loan), or a base rate (with a floor of 200 basis points in respect of the term loan) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin was 475 basis points in the case of LIBOR and 375 basis points in the case of the base rate. The weighted average all-in interest rate for borrowings under the term-loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 was 3.77% as of December 28, 2019 and was 5.84% at December 29, 2018. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 contains a springing financial covenant that would apply if we draw in excess of thirty-five percent (35%) of the revolving facility commitment (excluding $7.5 million of undrawn letters of credit and letters of credit and draws thereunder that are cash collateralized at 103% of the stated amount thereof from such availability test). To the extent in effect, the springing financial covenant would prohibit us from exceeding a maximum first lien net leverage ratio (based on the ratio of total first lien (less unrestricted cash) debt to EBITDA) as of the last day of each applicable fiscal quarter. To the extent the springing financial covenant is in effect, the first lien net leverage ratio cannot exceed 4.00:1.00 (4.50:1.00 during a significant acquisition period as defined). We have not been required to test our first lien net leverage ratio because we have not exceeded 35% of our revolving capacity. The 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 also contains a number of affirmative and restrictive covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of additional debt, liens on property, acquisitions and investments, loans and guarantees, mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions, asset sales, dividends and other payments in respect of our capital stock, entry into restrictive agreements, prepayments of certain debt and transactions with affiliates, in each case, subject to exceptions and qualifications. The 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 also contains customary events of default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the amounts outstanding under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 may be accelerated and may become immediately due and payable. On September 18, 2018, contemporaneously with the 2018 Equity Issuance, we prepaid $152.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. On December 19, 2018, we voluntarily prepaid an additional $8.0 million in borrowings under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. Interest expense, net, in the consolidated statement of operations in the year ended December 29, 2018 includes $5.6 million of accelerated amortization of lenders fees and discount relating to the prepayments of $152.0 million and $8.0 million of borrowings under the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 we made. Deferred Financing Costs All debt-related fees, costs and original issue discount, including those related to the revolving credit portion of the facility, is classified as a reduction of the carrying value of long-term debt.

The senior notes were issued to finance, together with cash on hand, the WWS acquisition. On January 24, 2020, we issued an additional $50.0 million of add-on senior notes, issued at 106.375% of their principal amount, to finance, together with cash on hand, the $92.0 million acquisition of NewSouth. (2) Effective on October 31, 2019, the Company amended and repriced this term loan into a new $64.0 million (3) term loan, and new $80.0 million revolving credit facility, due October 31, 2022. In July 2017, we entered into a two-year financing arrangement for the purchase of an enterprise-wide software license relating to office productivity software. This financing arrangement requires 24 monthly payments of $26 thousand each. We estimated the value of this financing arrangement to be $590 thousand, using an imputed annual interest rate of 6.00%, which approximated our borrowing rate under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 at that time, a Level 3 input. This note was fully repaid in 2019.

Includes unused revolver availability fees at 0.25%, the rate as of December 28, 2019. Includes estimated future interest expense on our 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 at a fixed interest rate of 6.75% as of December 28, 2019, including the additional $50.0 million in add-on senior notes issued January 24, 2020. The amounts reflected in the table above for operating leases represent future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases with an initial or remaining term in excess of one year at December 28, 2019. Purchase orders entered into in the ordinary course of business are excluded from the above table. Amounts for which we are liable are reflected on our consolidated balance sheet as accounts payable and accrued liabilities. We are obligated to purchase certain raw materials used in the production of our products from certain suppliers pursuant to stocking programs. If all of these programs were cancelled by us, as of December 28, 2019, we would be required to pay $14.9 million for various materials. At December 28, 2019, we had $2.0 million in standby letters of credit related to our workers’ compensation insurance coverage, and commitments to purchase equipment of $1.4 million. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we follow U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These principles require us to make certain estimates and apply judgments that affect our financial position and results of operations. On a regular basis, we review the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such difference could be material. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Item 8, Note 2. The following is a summary of our more significant accounting estimates that require the use of judgment in preparing the financial statements. Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets We disclosed the Company’s accounting policy for Goodwill and Trade Names under Item 8, Note 2— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. - 40 - For our Southeast reporting unit, we completed a qualitative assessment of our Southeast reporting unit goodwill on the first day of our fourth quarter of 2019. This qualitative assessment included an evaluation of relevant events and circumstances that existed at the date of our assessment. Those events and circumstances included conditions specific to our Southeast reporting unit, such as the inputs that would be used to calculate its fair values, as well as events and circumstances related to the Southeast reporting unit, such as the industry in which we operate, our competitive environment, the availability and costs of its raw materials and labor, the financial performance of our Southeast reporting unit, and factors related to the markets in which our Southeast reporting unit operates. We also considered that, for our Southeast reporting unit, no new impairment indicators were identified since the date of our prior assessment, which was a qualitative assessment. Based on the most recent qualitative assessment, we concluded that it is not more likely than not that the Southeast reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds it fair value. For our WWS reporting unit, for the nine-month period in 2019 ended September 28, 2019, we experienced financial results which were below the financial projections as included in our valuation of certain intangible assets relating to our WWS Acquisition. As such, we elected to forego a qualitative assessment of our WWS acquisition goodwill and completed a quantitative assessment on the first day of our fourth quarter of 2019. The quantitative assessment was conducted using various valuation techniques, including a discounted cash flow analysis, which utilizes Level 3 fair value inputs, and included a reconciliation of the estimated combined fair values of both of our reporting units to the market capitalization of the Company. Based on that quantitative assessment, we concluded that it is not more likely than not that the carrying value our WWS reporting unit exceeds it fair value, as the estimated fair value of our WWS reporting unit substantially exceeded the carrying value. We completed qualitative assessments of our PGT and CGI trade names on the first day of our fourth quarter of 2019. The qualitative assessments included an evaluation of relevant events and circumstances that existed at the date of our assessment. Those events and circumstances included conditions specific to our PGT and CGI trade names, such as the inputs that would be used to calculate their fair values, as well as events and circumstances related to the PGT and CGI trade names, such as the industry in which we use the PGT and CGI trade names, our competitive environment, the availability and costs of its raw materials and labor, the financial performance of our Company, and factors related to the markets in which our Company operates. We also considered that, for our PGT and CGI trade names, no new impairment indicators were identified since the date of our prior assessment, which was a qualitative assessment for our PGT trade name, and a quantitative assessment for our CGI trade. The quantitative assessment for CGI resulted from a triggering event in January 2019, consistent with management’s plan for CGI’s Estate Collection of products, in which we began the process of rebranding our Estate Collection as WinDoor-branded products. This rebranding aligns the Estate Collection’s status as a high-end, luxury product line, with WinDoor’s focus on the luxury market. We considered this rebranding of CGI’s Estate Collection of products as WinDoor-branded products as a triggering event in 2018 as it results in a shift in revenues from being sold under the CGI trade name, to being sold under the WinDoor trade name. Based on these qualitative assessments, we concluded that it is not more likely than not that our PGT and CGI trade names are impaired. In 2019, our WinDoor trade name did not meet the financial projections used in our prior quantitative assessment. Also, our WWS tradename was affected by the same factors as discussed above for our WWS goodwill. As such, we completed quantitative assessments of our WinDoor and WWS trade names on the first day of our fourth quarter of 2019. Based on these quantitative assessments, we concluded that it is not more likely than not that our WinDoor and WWS trade names are impaired, as the estimated fair value of the tradenames exceeded the carrying value. The carrying value for the WinDoor and WWS trade names are $18.4 million and $73.0 million, respectively. Actual results can differ from our estimates, requiring adjustments to our assumptions. The result of these changes could result in a material change in our calculation and an impairment of our trade names. If our WinDoor and WWS brands do not perform to the levels expected in their most recent quantitative assessments of - 41 - fair value, the WinDoor and WWS trade names are at higher degrees of risk for future impairment. The quantitative assessments resulted in the fair value exceeding the carrying value of the WinDoor and WWS trade names by 7% and 6%, respectively. An increase of 1 percentage point in the discount rate, coupled with a 5% decrease in cash flows would result in the carrying values exceeding the fair values of these trade names, and result in impairments. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Fair Value Measurement Disclosures In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)—Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”. The new guidance modifies disclosure requirements related to fair value measurement. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Implementation on a prospective or retrospective basis varies by specific disclosure requirement. Early adoption is permitted. The standard also allows for early adoption of any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of this ASU while delaying adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on its fair value disclosures. Financial Instruments—Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for most financial assets held at the reporting date based on an expected loss model which includes historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Entities will now use forward-looking information to better form their credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 also requires enhanced disclosures to help financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an entity’s portfolio. Subsequently, in November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses”. ASU 2018-19 clarifies the codification and corrects unintended application of the guidance. ASU’s 2016-13 and 2018-19 are effective for us for our fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2019. We do not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. FORWARD OUTLOOK Net sales Looking ahead into 2020, we believe Florida’s economic factors that impact our business currently are stable. Single-family housing starts in 2019 grew approximately 6%, below what we believe the Florida market can support. Within our core Florida market, we expect our sales into the repair and remodel segment to grow modestly in 2020, as compared to 2019. We expect to continue to see growth in our sales into the new construction segment due in part to what we believe will be continued growth in single-family starts and dealer expansion. Homebuilder confidence indices ended the year at near record levels, both nationally and regionally, in the South and West. Based on that confidence, as well as interest rates remaining relatively low and the persistent shortage of housing in many markets, we believe indications are that 2020 will be a solid year for single-family housing starts in our primary markets, which may be moderated somewhat by the continuing shortage of workers in many of the construction trades. For our Western business, we expect our core market in California to begin to rebound from the depressed levels seen in 2019. Our initiatives to grow Western’s custom product sales in core and emerging markets delivered strong growth in 2019 and we expect this trajectory to continue in 2020. In addition, we plan to expand Western sales into the repair and remodel segment with the opening of a pilot site in California in 2020, and the introduction of our Western products to dealers that have a focus on the repair and remodel segment in the western United States. - 42 - We expect 2020 full-year sales to range between $850 million and $880 million, representing an increase of between 14% and 18%, as compared to 2019. This estimated sales range for 2020 includes our NewSouth Acquisition. Gross profit and gross margin We believe the following factors, which are not all inclusive, may impact our gross profit and gross margin in 2020: • Our gross margin percentages are influenced by total sales due to operating leverage of fixed costs, and also by product mix. We expect product mix to begin moving toward a more normalized historical mix in both our PGT legacy brands and WWS. • During 2019, our gross profit and gross margin percentage continued to benefit from improved operational efficiencies in our PGT legacy business and the higher gross margin contributed by our WWS sales. Our focus in 2020 will be to continue to sustain and strive to further improve our scrap rate performance and operating efficiencies, in addition to improving the operational efficiency, including materials and labor cost reductions, at WWS in support of its current product mix, which has a relatively higher level of custom sales products, and which are more costly to manufacture, versus its volume products, as compared to its historical mix. Furthermore, we have taken steps in our product pricing to benefit gross margin and offset input inflation. • Aluminum prices, which can fluctuate significantly, increased during the first half of 2019, but stabilized in the second half of the year. We believe that the fluctuations in aluminum prices are in some part affected by the current Presidential Administration’s continuing policies towards imports of steel and aluminum, including the potential for the imposition of additional tariffs on such products entering the United States. We believe the uncertainty surrounding the potential for these actions has and may continue to cause unpredictable volatility in aluminum prices during 2020, and that volatility may be significant. As of the beginning of 2020, we are hedged for approximately 64 percent of our anticipated aluminum needs through December 2020 at an average price of $0.83 per pound, which is an average representing the cash price per pound, excluding the delivery component for the Midwest Premium, which is currently approximately $0.14 per pound. We have entered into additional coverage for 2021 where we are covered for approximately 15 percent of our anticipated needs through June 2021 at an average cash price of $0.82 per pound. The current cash price is approximately $0.77 per pound. • Our gross profit and gross margin are also influenced by costs of labor. Portions of our labor force have become more tenured and, therefore, labor costs have begun to normalize as efficiencies are achieved. However, the strong jobs environment in Florida has resulted in a contraction in the labor pool, which has caused construction labor market wage inflation on the Company. We expect the tight construction labor market to continue during 2020. Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) This expense category will be affected by the inclusion of the SG&A of NewSouth in 2020, including non-cash amortization depending on the level of amortizable intangible assets we determine to have acquired, if any. We are currently in the process of estimating the fair values of acquired intangible assets. We expect to leverage fixed SG&A on anticipated higher sales in 2020, compared to 2019, and to continue to look for areas within SG&A to drive efficiencies. Depreciation and Amortization Including the estimated impact on depreciation and amortization from our acquisition of NewSouth, depreciation and amortization is estimated to be approximately $40 million in 2020. - 43 - Interest expense During 2019, we entered into the Third Amendment of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in reductions in our overall borrowing rate of 150 basis points, which we expect to reduce interest costs under this agreement. However, with the issuance of the add-on notes we used to finance a portion of the purchase price for acquiring NewSouth, totaling additional $50.0 million, added onto the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, the level of our debt outstanding increased to $429.0 million, of which $365.0 million is at a fixed interest rate of 6.75%. We believe interest expense on our long-term debt will be approximately $29 million in 2020, including an estimated $1 million of non-cash amortization of net deferred financing costs. Income tax expense We expect to continue to be profitable in 2020, and thus, we believe that we will incur income tax expense at a combined Federal and state effective rate of between approximately 25% to 26%. This rate is based on the lower overall corporate income tax rate of 21% as the result of the Tax Act, plus a blended statutory state rate, taking into consideration a reduction in the corporate tax rate in Florida from 5.5% to 4.458%. Liquidity and capital resources We had $97.2 million of cash on hand as of December 28, 2019. On February 1, 2020, we completed our acquisition of NewSouth Acquisition for $92 million in cash, financed by the issuance of the Additional Senior Notes of $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of additional 6.75% 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 on January 24, 2020, issued at 106.375% of their principal amount, resulting in a premium to us of $3.2 million, together with cash on hand. During 2020, we expect to continue to generate sufficient cash from operations to service the interest requirements on our debt, cover our operating expenses, and spend between $28 million and $34 million for capital expenditures, excluding any capital expenditures required by NewSouth. As a result of the Third Amendment, we have no further mandatory required payments remaining until the maturity in October 2022 of our 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 but may continue to make voluntary prepayments in the future as our cash generation and other relevant factors permit. However, no assurances can be given that cash from operations will be sufficient for some or all these purposes. Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We utilize derivative financial instruments to hedge price movements in aluminum materials used in our manufacturing process. As of February 6, 2020, for 2020, we are covered for approximately 64 percent of our anticipated needs through December 2020 at an average price of $0.83 per pound, which is an average representing the cash price per pound, excluding the delivery component for the Midwest Premium, which is currently approximately $0.14 per pound. We have entered into additional coverage for 2021 where we are covered for approximately 14 percent of our anticipated needs through June 2021 at an average cash price of $0.82 per pound. Regarding only our aluminum hedging instruments for the purchase of aluminum as of December 28, 2019, a 10% decrease in the price of aluminum per pound would decrease the fair value of our forward contracts of aluminum by an estimated $2.2 million. This calculation utilizes our actual commitment of 26.3 million pounds under contract (to be settled throughout December 2020) and the market price of aluminum as of December 28, 2019. This calculation is based only on the LME price of aluminum and excludes an estimate for the Midwest premium. We experience changes in interest expense when market interest rates change. Changes in our debt could also increase these risks. Based on debt outstanding with a variable rate as of the date of December 28, 2019, of $64.0 million, a 100 basis-point increase in interest rate would result in approximately $0.6 million of additional interest costs annually. - 44 - Item 8.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 28, 2019, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated February 26, 2020 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Change in Accounting Principle As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method of accounting for leases as of December 30, 2018 due to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases, and several related amendments, as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method of accounting for revenue as of December 31, 2017 due to the adoption of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and several related amendments, as issued by the FASB. Basis for Opinion These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. - 46 - Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgment. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Evaluation of the impairment analyses for brand trade names As discussed in note 2 and 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the trade names balance as of December 28, 2019 was $148.8 million, of which $18.4 million related to the WinDoor brand and $73 million related to the Western Windows brand. The Company performs impairment testing over each trade name on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a trade name likely exceeds its fair value. We identified the evaluation of the impairment analyses for these trade names (“the trade names”) as a critical audit matter. The estimated fair value of the trade names approximated their carrying value, indicating a higher risk that the trade names may be impaired and, therefore, involved a high degree of subjective auditor judgment. Specifically, the revenue growth rates, the royalty rates, and the discount rates assumptions used to calculate the fair value of the trade names were challenging to test as minor changes to those assumptions had a significant effect on the Company’s assessment of the carrying values of the trade names. The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included the following. We tested certain internal controls over the Company’s trade name impairment analysis process, including controls related to the determination of the fair value of the trade names, the related revenue growth rates, the royalty rates, and the discount rates. We performed sensitivity analyses over the revenue growth rates, royalty rates, and discount rates assumptions to assess their impact on the Company’s determination that the fair value of the trade names exceeded their carrying values. We evaluated the Company’s forecasted revenue growth rates for the brands, by comparing the growth assumptions to forecasted growth rates in the Company’s and its peer companies’ analyst reports. We compared the Company’s historical revenue forecasts to actual results to assess the Company’s ability to accurately forecast. We involved a valuation professional with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in: • Evaluating the Company’s royalty rates, by comparing them against publicly available market data for comparable entities; and • Evaluating the Company’s discount rates, by comparing them against a discount rate range that was independently developed using publicly available market data for comparable entities. /s/ KPMG LLP We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2014.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Description of Business PGT Innovations, Inc. (“PGTI”, “we,” or the “Company”), formerly named PGT, Inc., is a leading manufacturer of impact-resistant aluminum and vinyl-framed windows and doors and offers a broad range of fully customizable window and door products. The majority of our sales are to customers in the state of Florida; however, we also sell products in many other states, the Caribbean, Canada, and in South and Central America. With the acquisition of Western Window Systems (‘WWS’), we also have sales in the western United States. Products are sold primarily through an authorized dealer and distributor network. We were incorporated in the state of Delaware on December 16, 2003, as JLL Window Holdings, Inc., with primary operations in North Venice, Florida. On February 15, 2006, our Company was renamed PGT, Inc. On December 14, 2016, we announced that we changed our name to PGT Innovations, Inc. and, effective on December 28, 2016, the listing of our common stock was transferred to the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) from the NASDAQ Global Market, and began trading on the NYSE under its existing ticker symbol of “PGTI”. We have four manufacturing operations in Florida, with one in North Venice, two in the greater Miami area, and one in Orlando and one in Arizona. Additionally, we have two glass tempering and laminating plants and one insulation glass plant, all located in North Venice. All references to PGTI or our Company apply to the consolidated financial statements of PGT Innovations, Inc. unless otherwise noted. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Fiscal period Our fiscal year consists of 52 or 53 weeks ending on the Saturday nearest December 31 of the related year. The years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, consisted of 52 weeks. Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements present the results of the operations, financial position and cash flows of PGTI, and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Segment information We operate as two segments based on geography: the Southeast segment, and the Western segment. See Note 20 for more information. Prior to 2019, we operated as one segment; the manufacture and sales of windows and doors. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. - 53 - Revenue recognition With the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” together with subsequently issued related guidance, we recognize revenue pursuant to Topic 606 of the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). See Note 4, “Revenue Recognition and Contracts with Customers.” Cost of sales Cost of sales represents costs directly related to the production of our products. Primary costs include raw materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead, which consist of salaries, wages, employee benefits, utilities, maintenance, lease costs and depreciation. Shipping and handling costs Shipping and handling costs incurred in the purchase of materials used in the manufacturing process are included in cost of sales. Costs relating to shipping and handling of our finished products are included in selling, general and administrative expenses and totaled $38.3 million, $29.9 million and $20.6 million for the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, respectively. Advertising We expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses, was $5.2 million, $3.2 million and $1.3 million for the years ended December 28 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand or highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased. Accounts receivable, net In the ordinary course of business, we extend credit to qualified dealers and distributors, generally on a non-collateralized basis. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which is based on management’s assessments of the amount which may become uncollectible in the future and is determined through consideration of our write-off history, specific identification of uncollectible accounts based in part on the customer’s past due balance (based on contractual terms), and consideration of prevailing economic and industry conditions. Uncollectible accounts are written off after repeated attempts to collect from the customer have been unsuccessful. Accounts receivable Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts Accounts receivable, net December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 (in thousands) $71,411 (3,320) $68,091 $83,506 (2,789) $80,717 Self-insurance reserves We are primarily self-insured for employee health benefits and for years prior to 2010 for workers’ compensation claims. Provisions for losses under these programs are recorded based on the Company’s estimates of the aggregate liabilities for the claims incurred. Accruals for healthcare claims and workers’ compensation are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. - 54 - Warranty expense We have warranty obligations with respect to most of our manufactured products. Warranty periods, which vary by product components, generally range from 1 to 10 years, although the warranty period for a limited number of specifically identified components in certain applications is a lifetime. However, the majority of the products sold have warranties on components which range from 1 to 3 years. The Company has recorded a reserve for estimated warranty and related costs based on historical experience and periodically adjusts these provisions to reflect actual experience. Expected future obligations are discounted to a current value using a risk- free rate for obligations with similar maturities. During 2019, we recorded warranty expense at an average rate of 1.7% of sales. This rate is equal to the average rate of 1.7% of sales accrued in 2018. We assess the adequacy of our warranty accrual on a quarterly basis, and adjust the previous amounts recorded, if necessary, to reflect the change in estimate of the future costs of claims yet to be serviced. The following provides information with respect to our warranty accrual. Accrued Warranty Beginning of Period Acquired Charged to Expense Adjustments Settlements End of Period Year ended December 28, 2019 Year ended December 29, 2018 Year ended December 30, 2017 $6,149 $5,386 $5,569 $— $509 $— $12,720 $11,835 $10,675 $ 570 $(650) $(212) $(13,195) $6,244 $(10,931) $6,149 $(10,646) $5,386 (in thousands) The accrual for warranty is included in accrued liabilities and other liabilities, depending on estimated settlement date, in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018. The portion of warranty expense related to the issuance of product of $2.7 million, $4.9 million and $4.8 million is included in cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, respectively. The portion related to servicing warranty claims including costs of the service department personnel is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, and is $10.6 million, $6.3 million and $5.7 million, respectively, for the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017. Inventories Inventories consist principally of raw materials purchased for the manufacture of our products. We have limited finished goods inventory as most products are custom, made-to-order products manufactured under noncancelable purchase orders and therefore are recognized over time during the manufacturing process. All inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. The reserve for obsolescence, which was immaterial at December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, is based on management’s assessment of the amount of inventory that may become obsolete in the future and is determined through Company history, specific identification and consideration of prevailing economic and industry conditions. Inventories consist of the following: Raw materials Work in progress Finished goods Inventories December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 (in thousands) $41,255 2,337 259 $43,851 $42,036 2,278 352 $44,666 - 55 - Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciable assets are assigned estimated lives as follows: Building and improvements Leasehold improvements Furniture and equipment Vehicles Computer software 5 to 40 years Shorter of lease term or estimated useful life 3 to 10 years 5 to 10 years 3 years Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. Long-lived assets We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of long-lived assets to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, and depreciation is no longer recorded. Computer software We capitalize costs associated with software developed or obtained for internal use when both the preliminary project stage is complete, and it is probable that computer software being developed will be completed and placed in service. Capitalized costs include: (i) external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining computer software, (ii) payroll and other related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the software project, and (iii) interest costs incurred, when material, while developing internal-use software. Capitalization of such costs ceases no later than the point at which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose. Capitalized software as of December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, was $24.0 million and $22.2 million, respectively. Accumulated depreciation of capitalized software was $21.2 million and $18.8 million as of December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, respectively. Amortization expense for capitalized software was $2.4 million, $1.9 million, and $1.5 million for the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, respectively. We review the carrying value of capitalized software and development costs for impairment in accordance with our policy pertaining to the impairment of long-lived assets. Goodwill Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration paid in a business combination over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. We test goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be - 56 - recoverable. Our annual test for impairment is done on the first date of our fiscal fourth quarter. We consider various qualitative factors, including macroeconomic and industry conditions, financial performance of the Company and changes in the stock price of the Company to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative test for goodwill impairment. If we believe, as a result of our qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Under the quantitative test, goodwill is tested under a one-step method for impairment at a level of reporting referred to as a reporting unit. This quantitative analysis involves identifying potential impairment by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount and, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then a charge for goodwill impairment will be recognized in the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value. For our Southeast reporting unit, based on a qualitative assessment, we concluded that a quantitative one-step assessment was not required to be performed. For our WWS reporting unit, for the nine-month period in 2019 ended September 28, 2019, we experienced financial results which were below our 2019 annual operating budget, and below the financial projections as included in our valuation of certain intangible assets relating to our WWS Acquisition. As such, we elected to forego a qualitative assessment of our Western reporting unit goodwill, and we completed a quantitative assessment of our Western reporting unit goodwill on the first day of our fourth quarter of 2019. The quantitative assessment was conducted using various valuation techniques, including a discounted cash flow analysis, which utilizes Level 3 fair value inputs, and included a reconciliation of the estimated combined fair values of both of our reporting units to the market capitalization of the Company, Based on that quantitative assessment, we concluded that it is not more likely than not that the carrying value our WWS reporting unit exceeds it fair value. Trade names The Company has indefinite-lived intangible assets in the form of trade names. The impairment evaluation of the carrying amount of our trade names is conducted annually, or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. We have the option of performing a qualitative assessment of impairment to determine whether any further quantitative testing for impairment is necessary. If we elect to bypass the qualitative assessment or if we determine, based on qualitative factors, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of our trade names is less than the carrying amount, an evaluation is performed by comparing their carrying amount to their estimated fair values. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount of the trade name, then an impairment charge is recorded to reduce the carrying value to its estimated fair value. The estimated fair value is determined using the relief from royalty method that is based upon the discounted projected cost savings (value) attributable to ownership of our trade names, our only indefinite lived intangible assets. Based on qualitative assessments, we concluded that quantitative assessments were not required to be performed for our PGT or CGI trade names. In evaluating our WinDoor and WWS trade name as of the first day of our fourth quarter of 2019, we elected to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment. Based on these quantitative assessments, we concluded that no impairment was indicated. Derivative financial instruments We utilize certain derivative instruments, from time to time, including forward contracts to manage variability in cash flow associated with commodity market price risk exposure in the aluminum market. We do not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes. Concentrations of credit risk Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. Accounts receivable are due primarily from dealers and - 57 - distributors of building materials, and other companies in the construction industry, primarily located in Florida, California, Texas and Arizona. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and credit history, and generally collateral is not required. The Company maintains an allowance for potential credit losses on trade receivables. We maintain our cash with several financial institutions, the balance of which exceeds federally insured limits. At December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, our cash balance exceeded the insured limit by $95.2 million and $50.9 million, respectively. Comprehensive income The Company reports comprehensive income (loss), defined as the total of net income and other comprehensive income (loss), which is composed of all other non-owner changes in equity, and the components thereof, in its consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The components of other comprehensive income (loss) relate to gains and losses on cash flow hedges. Reclassification adjustments reflecting such gains and losses are recorded as income in the same period as the hedged items affect earnings. Stock-based compensation We use a fair-value based approach for measuring stock-based compensation and record compensation expense over an award’s vesting period based on the award’s fair value at the date of grant. Our Company’s awards vest based on service conditions and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis for each separately vesting portion of an award. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized only for those awards that ultimately vest. Income and Sales Taxes We account for income taxes utilizing the liability method. Deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect consequences on future years of differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities measured using the enacted statutory tax rates and tax laws applicable to the periods in which differences are expected to affect taxable earnings. We have no liability for unrecognized tax benefits. However, should we accrue for such liabilities, when and if they arise in the future, we will recognize interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of our income tax provision. Refer to Note 13 for additional information regarding the Company’s income taxes. Sales taxes collected from customers have been recorded on a net basis. Net income per common share Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year, plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method. Our weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding excludes underlying securities of 74 thousand, and 19 thousand for the years ended December 28, 2019, and December 30, 2017, respectively, because their effects were anti-dilutive. There were no anti-dilutive shares outstanding for the year ended December 29, 2018. - 58 - The table below presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share, including a reconciliation of weighted average common shares: Year Ended December 28, December 29, December 30, 2018 2019 2017 (in thousands, except per share amounts) Numerator: Net income Denominator: $43,688 $53,933 $39,839 Weighted-average common shares—Basic Add: Dilutive effect of stock compensation plans Weighted-average common shares—Diluted 58,346 804 59,150 52,461 1,645 54,106 49,522 2,206 51,728 Net income per common share: Basic Diluted $ $ 0.75 0.74 $ $ 1.03 1.00 $ $ 0.80 0.77 3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 was subsequently amended by ASU 2018-01, “Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842”; ASU 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases”; and ASU 2018-11, “Targeted Improvements”. The new standard requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard was effective for us on December 30, 2018 (the first day of our 2019 fiscal year), with early adoption permitted. We adopted the new standard on this date, using the required modified retrospective transition approach, applying the new standard to all leases existing on the effective date. Consequently, financial information was not updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods prior to December 30, 2018. As of the date of adoption, all of our leases were operating leases, and we have no financing leases as of December 28, 2019. The new standard provided a number of optional practical expedients in transition. We elected the “package of practical expedients”, which permitted us not to reassess under the new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and direct costs, and implemented internal controls and additional lease accounting and tracking procedures to enable the preparation of financial information on adoption. We did not elect the use-of-hindsight practical expedient, or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements as it was not applicable to us. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. We elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualified, primarily for leases that are month-to-month leases. This means, for those leases, we did not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities. We also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all classes of underlying assets. - 59 - This standard had a material effect on our consolidated balance sheet relating to the recognition of an operating lease right-of-use asset and operating lease liability for our real estate leases and related to new disclosures about our leasing activities. On adoption, we recognized an operating lease right-of-use asset of $30.5 million, and an operating lease liability of $32.3 million, based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments under prior leasing standards for existing operating leases. Calculation of the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments required the use of judgment relating to the selection of the discount rate applied to future lease payments. We used a weighted-average interest rate of 6.2%, which was based on a current trade rate for our 2018 Senior Notes due 2026. See Note 14 for additional information relating to our leases. Leases Accounting Policy We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, current portion of operating lease liability, and operating lease liability, less current portion, on our consolidated balance sheets. Should we engage in any finance leases in the future, finance leases would be included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease right-of-use asset also includes any up-front lease payments made and initial direct costs incurred, less lease incentives received. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease. Judgment is required to determine when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise an option and should therefore include the optional period in the lease term. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued, Not Yet Adopted Fair Value Measurement Disclosures In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)—Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”. The new guidance modifies disclosure requirements related to fair value measurement. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Implementation on a prospective or retrospective basis varies by specific disclosure requirement. Early adoption is permitted. The standard also allows for early adoption of any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of this ASU while delaying adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on its fair value disclosures. Financial Instruments–Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for most financial assets held at the reporting date based on an expected loss model which includes historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Entities will now use forward-looking information to better form their credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 also requires enhanced disclosures to help financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an entity’s portfolio. Subsequently, in November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses”. ASU 2018-19 clarifies the codification and corrects unintended application of the guidance. ASU’s 2016-13 and 2018-19 are effective for us for our fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2019. We do not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. - 60 - 4. Revenue Recognition and Contracts with Customers Adoption of ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” We adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, together with subsequently issued related guidance, on December 31, 2017 (the first day of our 2018 fiscal year) using the modified retrospective adoption methodology, whereby the cumulative impact of all prior periods was recorded in retained earnings or other impacted balance sheet line items upon adoption. Under the modified retrospective adoption method, we elected to retroactively adjust, inclusive of all previous modifications, only those contracts that were considered open at the date of initial application. Upon adoption, we recognized a net decrease to the fiscal year 2018 opening balance of accumulated deficit of $1.9 million related to sales of $8.7 million, that would have been recognized over time in our prior year ended December 30, 2017. The details of the adjustment to accumulated deficit upon adoption on December 31, 2017 is as follows (in thousands): Net sales Cost of sales SG&A expenses Income tax expense Net income Cumulative Effect $ 8,704 (5,642) (532) (647) $ 1,883 Description of Effects on Line Item Additional contract asset sales Inventory classified as cost of sales Accruals for selling costs Estimated income tax effects Additional net income - 61 - The following tables reconcile the balances as presented as of and for the year ended December 29, 2018 to the balances prior to the adjustments made to implement the new revenue recognition standard for the same period, for the accompanying consolidated statement of operations, and the consolidated balance sheet. Adoption of the revenue recognition standard did not impact our cash from operating, investing, or financing activities on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Revenue Recognition Accounting Policy The Company primarily manufactures fully customized windows and doors, and manufactures products based on design specifications, measurements, colors, finishes, framing materials, glass-types, and other options selected by the customer at the point in time an order is received from the customer. The Company has an enforceable right to payment at the time an order is received and accepted at the agreed-upon sales prices contained in our agreements with our customers for all manufacturing efforts expended by the Company on behalf of its customers. Due to the customized build-to-order nature of the Company’s products, the Company’s assessment is that the substantial portion of its finished goods and certain unused glass components have no alternative use, and that control of these products and components passes to the customer over time during the manufacturing of the products in an order, or upon our receipt of certain pre-cut glass components from our supplier attributed to specific customer orders. Based on these factors, the Company recognizes a substantial portion of revenue over time during the manufacturing process once customization begins, and for certain unused glass components on hand, at the end of a reporting period. Revenue on work-in-process at the end of a reporting period is recognized in proportion to costs incurred to total estimated cost of the product being manufactured. Except for the Western segment’s - 63 - volume products, discussed in the section titled Disaggregation of Revenue from Contracts with Customers below, revenue recognized at a point in time is immaterial. Disaggregation of Revenues from Contracts with Customers The following table provides information about our revenue differentiated based on reportable segment, product category, and market (dollars in millions): Disaggregation of revenue: Reporting segment: Southeast Western Total net sales Product category: Impact-resistant window and door products Non-impact window and door products Total net sales Market: New construction Repair and remodel Total net sales Year Ended December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 $595.1 149.9 $745.0 $516.1 228.9 $745.0 $368.4 376.6 $745.0 $636.4 62.1 $698.5 $561.8 136.7 $698.5 $283.1 415.4 $698.5 The Company’s Western segment includes both custom and volume products. This segment’s volume products are not made-to-order and are of standardized sizes and design specifications. Therefore, the Company’s assessment is that the Western segment’s volume products have alternative uses, and that control of these products passes to the customer at a point in time, which is typically when the product has been delivered to the customer. For the year ended December 28, 2019, the Western segment’s net sales of its volume products were $53.9 million. For the post-acquisition period from the August 13, 2018 acquisition date to December 29, 2018, the Western segment’s net sales of its volume products were $23.5 million. Contract Balances Contract assets represent sales recognized in excess of billings related to finished goods not yet shipped and certain unused glass components not yet placed into the production process for which revenue is recognized over time as noted above. Contract liabilities relate to customer deposits at the end of reporting periods. At December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, those contract liabilities totaled $7.9 million and $8.3 million, respectively, of which $7.4 million and $7.8 million, respectively, are classified within accrued liabilities, and $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, are classified within contract assets, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018. Because of the short-term nature of our performance obligations, as discussed below, substantially all of our performance obligations are satisfied within the quarter following the end of a reporting period. As such, substantially all of the contract liabilities at December 29, 2018 were satisfied in the first quarter of 2019, and contract assets at December 29, 2018 were transferred to accounts receivable in the first quarter of 2019. Contract liabilities at December 28, 2019 represents cash received during the three-month period ended December 28, 2019, excluding amounts recognized as revenue during that period. Contract assets at December 28, 2019 represents revenue recognized during the three-month period ended December 28, 2019, excluding amounts transferred to accounts receivable during that period. - 64 - Performance Obligations A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is defined as the unit of account. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. Our contracts with our customers generally represent an approved purchase order, together with our standard terms and conditions. Our custom product contracts include distinct goods that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer over time, and therefore represent a series of distinct goods accounted for as a single performance obligation. For volume products, we allocate the contract’s transaction price to each distinct performance obligation based on the estimated relative standalone selling price of each distinct good. Observable standalone sales are used to determine the standalone selling price. Certain customers are eligible for rebates based on their volume or purchases during an annual period. Rebates are recorded as a reduction to sales and were immaterial in all periods presented. Performance obligations are satisfied over time, generally for our custom products, and as of a point in time for our volume products. Performance obligations are supported by contracts with customers, and we have elected not to disclose our unsatisfied performance obligations as of December 28, 2019 under the short-term contract exemption as we expect such performance obligations will be satisfied within the quarter following the end of a reporting period. Policies Regarding Shipping and Handling Costs and Commissions on Contract Assets The Company has made a policy election to continue to recognize shipping and handling costs as a fulfillment activity. Treating shipping and handling as a fulfillment activity requires estimated shipping and handling costs for undelivered custom products and certain glass components on which we have recognized revenue and created a contract asset, to be accrued to match this cost with the recognized revenue. This policy is unchanged from the Company’s policy for recognizing shipping and handling costs prior to the adoption of the new revenue standard. The Company utilizes the practical expedient which permits expensing of costs to obtain a contract when the expected amortization period is one year or less, which typically results in expensing commissions paid to employees. We expense sales commissions paid to employees as sales are recognized, including sales from the creation of contract assets, as the expected amortization period is less than one year. 5. Acquisitions Western Window Systems On August 13, 2018, PGT Innovations, Inc. completed the acquisition of GEF WW Parent LLC (now known as “Western Window Systems” or “WWS”) and its subsidiaries (the “WWS Acquisition”). Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, Western Window Systems designs and manufactures contemporary door and window systems that unify indoor/outdoor living for the residential, commercial and multi-family markets. As a result of the acquisition, WWS became a wholly owned subsidiary of PGT Innovations, Inc. and its accounts and results are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and from August 13, 2018. Purchase Price Allocation The fair value of consideration transferred in the WWS Acquisition was $354.6 million. The WWS Acquisition was financed primarily with proceeds of $315.0 million from the issuance of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, and with $39.6 million in cash on hand. See Note 10 for a discussion of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026. - 65 - The fair value of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed as of the closing date, are as follows: Accounts and notes receivable Inventories Contract assets, net Prepaid expenses and other assets Property and equipment Intangible assets Goodwill Accounts payable Accrued and other liabilities Deferred income tax liabilities Initial Allocation Adjustments to Allocation Final Allocation $ 7,555 12,580 890 1,190 16,416 167,000 164,379 (5,622) (9,175) — $ (217) — — — (447) — 5,162 — 53 (5,180) $ 7,338 12,580 890 1,190 15,969 167,000 169,541 (5,622) (9,122) (5,180) Purchase price $355,213 $ (629) $354,584 Consideration: Cash $355,213 $ (629) $354,584 Total fair value of consideration $355,213 $ (629) $354,584 The fair value of certain working capital related items, including accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximated their book values at the date of the WWS Acquisition. The fair value of inventory was estimated by major category, at net realizable value. The substantial majority of inventories at the acquisition date was composed of raw materials. The fair value of property and equipment and remaining useful lives were estimated by management, with the assistance of a third-party valuation firm, using the cost approach. Valuations of the intangible assets (See Note 12) were done using income and royalty relief approaches based on projections provided by management, which we consider to be Level 3 inputs. The WWS Acquisition included its subsidiary, WWS Blocker LLC (“Blocker”). Blocker was a single- purpose U.S. tax blocker which held a 18.06% ownership percentage of the combined ownership of WWS, and for which that portion of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the WWS Acquisition was not eligible for a step-up in basis. As a result, we recorded a net deferred tax liability of $5.2 million in the WWS Acquisition, primarily relating to the fair value of the acquired identifiable indefinite-lived and amortizable intangible assets. Subsequent to the acquisition, Blocker was merged out of existence. See Note 13 for details of the components of the net deferred tax liability recorded in the WWS Acquisition. We incurred costs totaling $4.4 million relating to the WWS Acquisition, which includes $0.7 million in additional costs in the first quarter of 2019, included in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, and relates to legal expenses, representations and warranties insurance, diligence, accounting and printing services. The remaining consideration, after identified intangible assets and the net assets and liabilities recorded at fair value, has been determined to be $169.5 million, of which we estimate $139.6 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill represents the increased value of the combined entity through additional sales channel opportunities as well as penetration of a new geographic market with enhanced opportunities for cross-selling of our multiple brands in all markets. The purchase agreement relating to the WWS Acquisition has a post-closing working capital calculation whereby we were required to prepare, and which we delivered to the sellers, a final statement of purchase price, including our calculation of actual net working capital as of the closing date. The calculation resulted in a net decrease in purchase price of $0.6 million. - 66 - Net sales of WWS, included in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 28, 2019, was $138.3 million. Net sales of WWS included in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 29, 2018 from the August 13, 2018 acquisition date was $49.7 million. The net income of WWS in the consolidated statements of operations for both periods were de minimis after allocation of interest and other corporate costs to WWS. Valuation of Identified Intangible Assets The valuation of the identifiable intangible assets acquired in the WWS Acquisition and our estimate of their respective useful lives are as follows: (in thousands) Trade names Customer relationships Other intangible assets, net Pro Forma Financial Information Initial Useful Life (in years) indefinite 10 Valuation Amount $ 73,000 94,000 $167,000 The following unaudited pro forma financial information assumes the WWS Acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. Pro forma results have been prepared by adjusting our historical results to include the results of WWS adjusted for the following: amortization expense related to the amortizable intangible assets arising from the acquisition, interest expense to reflect the 2018 Senior Notes issued in connection with the acquisition. The following pro forma results of WWS do not include any adjustment for the adoption of the revenue recognition guidance under Topic 606 at the beginning of each period as it was not practicable to determine its effects. The unaudited pro forma results below do not necessarily reflect the results of operations that would have resulted had the acquisition been completed at the beginning of the earliest periods presented, nor does it indicate the results of operations in future periods.

Sale of Assets On September 22, 2017, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) with Cardinal LG Company (“Cardinal”) for the sale to Cardinal of certain manufacturing equipment we used in processing glass components for PGT-branded doors for a cash purchase price of $27.8 million. Contemporaneously with entering into the APA, we entered into a seven-year supply agreement (“SA”) with Cardinal for Cardinal to supply us with glass components for PGT-branded doors. The Company determined to sell these assets and enter the SA to allow us to heighten our focus in our core areas of window and door manufacturing and, at the same time, - 67 - strengthen our supply chain for high-quality door glass from a supplier with whom we have been doing business for many years. The Company has determined that, although the APA and SA are separate agreements, they were negotiated contemporaneously. Therefore, the Company has concluded that the $27.8 million of proceeds under the APA should be bifurcated between the sale of the door glass manufacturing assets, and as payment received from a supplier for the Company’s agreement to buy glass components for PGT-branded doors from Cardinal under the SA. The bifurcation of the proceeds in excess of the stand-alone selling price of the assets acquired would be allocated to the SA and recognized as a reduction of cost of sales as glass components are purchased by PGTI. Based on the established stand-alone selling price of the assets sold, as determined by an independent appraisal, approximately $7.7 million was allocated to the sale of the assets, with the remaining $20.1 million representing consideration received from Cardinal related to the agreement to buy door glass components for PGT-branded doors from Cardinal. This consideration is being amortized over the seven-year term of the SA. At the time we ceased using these assets in production, at which time they became available for immediate sale, their net book value was $4.7 million, and they were reclassified from property, plant and equipment, to assets held for sale within other current assets. The APA provided for the transfer of the assets from the Company to Cardinal in two phases, with the first date in 2017, and the second date in 2018, on dates which the Company and Cardinal agree to use. Under the APA, the cash purchase price of $27.8 million was to be paid by Cardinal to the Company in three separate payments of $3.0 million on or about the time of the first transfer of the assets to Cardinal, $10.0 million on or about January 15, 2018, and $14.8 million at or about the time of the second transfer of assets to Cardinal. Cardinal paid us $3.0 million in cash on November 1, 2017, $10.0 million in cash on January 16, 2018, and $14.8 million on June 8, 2018, pursuant to the APA. On December 15, 2017, machinery and equipment classified as assets held for sale with net book value of $1.5 million, and fair value of $1.9 million was transferred to Cardinal and their equipment rigger, and we recognized a gain for the difference. Substantially all of the remaining machinery and equipment was transferred to Cardinal during the second quarter of 2018, which had a net book value of $3.2 million and fair value of $5.8 million. We recognized gains on disposals for the difference totaling $2.6 million during the year ended December 29, 2018, classified as a separate line item in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The SA provides that the Company will purchase, and Cardinal will supply, all the Company’s requirements for certain glass components used in PGT-branded doors through the end of 2024. The terms of the manufacture by Cardinal and purchase by the Company of such glass components as to purchase orders, forecasts of purchases, pricing, invoicing, delivery and payment terms and other terms, are all as described in the SA. Early in the fourth quarter of 2017, we began purchasing and receiving glass components from Cardinal under the SA. At that time, we began amortizing the advance consideration received from Cardinal initially allocated to the SA, recognizing $628 thousand in the year ended December 30, 2017, and $2.8 million in each of the years ended December 29, 2018, and December 28, 2019, which are classified as reductions to cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations in each year. The remaining unamortized balance of $13.9 million is classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 28, 2019, as $2.8 million within accrued liabilities and $11.1 million within other liabilities. - 68 - 7.

The 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 are jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s existing and future restricted subsidiaries, other than any restricted subsidiary of the Company that does not guarantee the existing senior secured credit facilities or any permitted refinancing thereof. The 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and the guarantors, respectively, and rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior debt and senior to all existing and future subordinated debt of the Company and the guarantors. The 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 were offered under Rule 144A of the Securities Act, and in transactions outside the United States under Regulation S of the Securities Act, and have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act. The 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 mature on August 10, 2026. Interest on the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 is payable semi-annually, in arrears, beginning on February 16, 2019, with interest accruing at a rate of 6.75% per annum from August 10, 2018. We incurred financing costs relating to bank fees and professional services costs relating to the offering and issuance of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 totaling $10.4 million, which is being amortized under the effective interest method. See “Deferred Financing Costs” below. As of December 28, 2019, the face value of debt outstanding under the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 was $315.0 million, and accrued interest totaled $8.7 million. - 71 - The indenture for the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 gives us the ability to optionally redeem some or all of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 at the redemption prices and on the terms specified in the indenture governing the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026. The indenture governing the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 does not require us to make any mandatory redemptions or sinking fund payments. However, upon the occurrence of a change of control, as defined in the indenture, the Company is required to offer to repurchase the notes at 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. The indenture for the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 includes certain covenants limiting the ability of the Company and any guarantors to, (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends on or make distributions in respect of capital stock or make certain other restricted payments or investments; (iii) enter into agreements that restrict distributions from restricted subsidiaries; (iv) sell or otherwise dispose of assets; (v) enter into transactions with affiliates; (vi) create or incur liens; merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; (vii) place restrictions on the ability of subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to the Company; and (viii) designate the Company’s subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. 2016 Credit Agreement Due 2022 On February 16, 2016, we entered into the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, among us, the lending institutions identified in the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, and SunTrust Bank, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. The 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 established new senior secured credit facilities in an aggregate amount of $310.0 million, consisting of a $270.0 million Term B term loan facility maturing in February 2022 that amortized on a basis of 1% annually during its six-year term, and a $40.0 million revolving credit facility that was to mature in February 2021 that included a swing line facility and a letter of credit facility. On October 31, 2019, we entered into an amendment of our 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 (“Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment provides for, among other things, (i) a new three-year Term A loan in the aggregate principal amount of $64.0 million (the “Initial Term A Loan”), which refinances in full our existing Term B term loan facility under the 2016 Credit Agreement, and has no regularly scheduled amortization, and (ii) a new five-year revolving credit facility due 2024 in an aggregate principal amount of up to $80.0 million (the “New Revolving Facility”), which replaces our existing $40.0 million revolving credit facility under the 2016 Credit Agreement, and includes a swing-line facility and letter of credit facility. Our obligations under the 2016 Credit Agreement continue to be secured by substantially all of our assets, as well as our direct and indirect subsidiaries’ assets. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, interest on all loans under the 2016 Credit Agreement is payable either quarterly or at the expiration of any LIBOR interest period applicable thereto. The Third Amendment decreases the applicable interest rate margins for the Initial Term Loan A from (i) 2.50% to a spread of 1.00% to 1.75% based on our first lien net leverage ratio, in the case of the Base Rate Loans (with a floor of 100 basis points), and (ii) 3.50% to a spread ranging from 2.00% to 2.75% based on our first lien leverage ratio, in the case of the Eurodollar Loans (with a floor of zero basis points). Also, in connection with the Third Amendment, we will pay quarterly fees on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility equal to a percentage spread (ranging from 0.25% to 0.35%) based on our first lien net leverage ratio. The Third Amendment also modifies the springing financial covenant under the 2016 Credit Agreement to provide that such financial covenant will not be tested until the Initial Term A Loan is paid in full. As of December 28, 2019, there were $2.0 million of letters of credit outstanding and $78.0 million available under the revolver. Fees and costs relating to the Third Amendment were $0.9 million, which are deferred and being amortized. In connection with the Third Amendment, certain existing lenders modified their positions in or exited the 2016 Credit Agreement. Deferred financing costs and original issue discount allocated to these lenders of $1.5 million - 72 - were written-off and classified as debt extinguishment costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 28, 2019. As of December 28, 2019, the principal amount of debt outstanding under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 was $64.0 million, and accrued interest was $280 thousand. On March 16, 2018, we entered into a second amendment of our 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. The Second Amendment, among other things, decreased the applicable interest rate margins for the Initial Term Loans (as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022) from (i) 3.75% to 2.50%, in the case of the Base Rate Loans (as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022), and (ii) 4.75% to 3.50%, in the case of the Eurodollar Loans (as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022). On February 17, 2017, we entered into the first amendment to our 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which also resulted in decreases in the applicable margins, but which did not include any changes in lender positions. In connection with the Second Amendment, certain existing lenders changed their positions in or exited the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in the write-offs of portions of the deferred financing costs and original issue discount allocated to these lenders. Additionally, at the time of the issuance of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, certain existing lenders reduced their positions in the revolving credit portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, which resulted in the write-offs of the deferred financing costs allocated to these lenders. As such, write-offs totaling $3.4 million is classified as debt extinguishment costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 29, 2018. Regarding the first amendment as described above, as there were no changes in lender positions, this action did not result in any modifications or extinguishments of debt. Therefore, there was no charge for debt extinguishment costs in the year ended December 30, 2017. Interest on all loans under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 is payable either quarterly or at the expiration of any LIBOR interest period applicable thereto. Prior to amending the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 on March 16, 2018, as described above, borrowings under the term loans and the revolving credit facility accrued interest at a rate equal to, at our option, LIBOR (with a floor of 100 basis points in respect of the term loan), or a base rate (with a floor of 200 basis points in respect of the term loan) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin was 475 basis points in the case of LIBOR and 375 basis points in the case of the base rate. The weighted average all-in interest rate for borrowings under the term-loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 was 3.77% as of December 28, 2019 and was 5.84% at December 29, 2018. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 contains a springing financial covenant that would apply if we draw in excess of thirty-five percent (35%) of the revolving facility commitment (excluding $7.5 million of undrawn letters of credit and letters of credit and draws thereunder that are cash collateralized at 103% of the stated amount thereof from such availability test). To the extent in effect, the springing financial covenant would prohibit us from exceeding a maximum first lien net leverage ratio (based on the ratio of total first lien (less unrestricted cash) debt to EBITDA) as of the last day of each applicable fiscal quarter. To the extent the springing financial covenant is in effect, the first lien net leverage ratio currently cannot exceed 4.00:1.00 (4.50:1.00 during a significant acquisition period as defined). We have not been required to test our first lien net leverage ratio because we have not exceeded 35% of our revolving capacity. The 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 also contains a number of affirmative and restrictive covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of additional debt, liens on property, acquisitions and investments, loans and guarantees, mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions, asset sales, dividends and other payments in respect of our capital stock, entry into restrictive agreements, prepayments of certain debt and transactions with affiliates, in each case, subject to exceptions and qualifications. The 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 also contains customary events of default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the amounts outstanding under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 may be accelerated and may become immediately due and payable. - 73 - On September 18, 2018, contemporaneously with the 2018 Equity Issuance, we prepaid $152.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. On December 19, 2018, we voluntarily prepaid an additional $8.0 million in borrowings under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. Interest expense, net, in the consolidated statement of operations in the year ended December 29, 2018 includes $5.6 million of accelerated amortization of lenders fees and discount relating to the prepayments of $152.0 million and $8.0 million of borrowings under the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 we made. Deferred Financing Costs All debt-related fees, costs and original issue discount, including those related to the revolving credit portion of the facility, is classified as a reduction of the carrying value of long-term debt. The activity relating to third- party fees and costs, lender fees and discount for the year ended December 28, 2019, are as follows: (in thousands) At beginning of year Less: Amortization expense relating to 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 Add: Third amendment of 2016 Credit Agreement refinancing costs Less: Debt extinguishment costs relating to third amendment Less: Amortization expense relating to 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 At end of year Total $12,361 (663) 854 (1,512) (1,011) $10,029 Estimated amortization expense relating to third-party fees and costs, lender fees and discount for the years indicated, as of December 28, 2019, is as follows: (in thousands) 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 Thereafter Total Total $ 1,390 1,454 1,521 1,476 1,561 2,627 $10,029 - 74 - As a result of prepayments of the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 totaling $204.0 million since its inception in February 2016, and pursuant to the Third Amendment, we have no future scheduled repayments until the maturity of the facility on October 31, 2022. The contractual future maturities of long-term debt outstanding, including other debt relating to our software license financing arrangement, as of December 28, 2019, are as follows (at face value): (in thousands) 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 Thereafter Total Total $ — — 64,000 — — 315,000 $379,000 Other Debt In July 2017, we entered into a two-year financing arrangement for the purchase of an enterprise-wide software license relating to office productivity software. This financing arrangement requires 24 monthly payments of $26 thousand each. We estimated the value of this financing arrangement to be $590 thousand, using an imputed annual interest rate of 6.00%, which approximates our borrowing rate under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, a Level 3 input.

Derivatives Aluminum Forward Contracts We enter into aluminum forward contracts to hedge the fluctuations in the purchase price of aluminum extrusion (the contractually specific component) we use in production. Our contracts are designated as cash flow hedges since they are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows attributable to forecasted purchases of aluminum. We record our hedge contracts at fair value, based on trading values for aluminum forward contracts. Aluminum forward contracts identical to those held by us trade on the London Metal Exchange (“LME”). The - 75 - LME provides a transparent forum and is the world’s largest center for the trading of futures contracts for non-ferrous metals. The prices are used by the metals industry worldwide as the basis for contracts for the movement of physical material throughout the production cycle. Based on this high degree of volume and liquidity in the LME, we believe the valuation price at any measurement date for contracts with identical terms as to prompt date, trade date and trade price as those we hold at any time represents a contract’s exit price to be used for purposes of determining fair value. At December 28, 2019, the fair value of our aluminum forward contracts was in a net liability position of $317 thousand. We had 29 outstanding aluminum forward contracts considered to be cash flow hedges for the purchase of 26.3 million pounds of aluminum through December 2020, at an average price of $0.84 per pound, which excludes the Midwest premium, with maturity dates of between one month and twelve months. We assessed the risk of non-performance of the Company to these contracts and determined it was insignificant and, therefore, did not record any adjustment to fair value as of December 28, 2019. Gains or losses on our aluminum forward contracts is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and is reclassified into earnings in the same line item in the income statement as the hedged item in the same period or periods during which the transaction affects earnings. The amount of losses, net, recognized in the “accumulated other comprehensive loss” line item in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 28, 2019, that we expect will be reclassified to earnings within the next twelve months, will be approximately $317 thousand.

Fair Value Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. The accounting guidance concerning fair value allows us to elect to measure financial instruments at fair value and report the changes in fair value through earnings. This election can only be made at certain specified dates and is irrevocable once made. We do not have a policy regarding specific assets or liabilities to elect to measure at fair value, but rather we make the election on an instrument-by-instrument basis as they are acquired or incurred. During 2019, 2018, or 2017, we did not make any transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 financial assets. We conduct reviews on a quarterly basis to verify pricing, assess liquidity, and determine if significant inputs have changed that would impact the fair value hierarchy disclosure. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Our financial instruments include cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, and accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other debt, whose carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. Our financial instruments also include borrowings under our 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022, as well as - 77 - the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026, both classified as long-term debt. The fair value of borrowings under the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 is based on debt with similar terms and characteristics and was approximately $64.0 million as of December 28, 2019, compared to a principal outstanding value of $64.0 million, and $63.2 million as of December 29, 2018, compared to a principal outstanding value of $64.0 million. The fair value of the 2018 Senior Notes due 2026 is also based on debt with similar terms and characteristics and was approximately $338.6 million as of December 28, 2019, compared to a principal outstanding value of $315.0 million, and $311.9 million as of December 29, 2018, compared to a principal outstanding value of $315.0 million. Fair values were determined based on observed trading prices of our debt between domestic financial institutions, which we consider to be Level 2 inputs. The carrying amounts for financial instruments measured at fair value are as follows: Fair Value Measurements Assets (Liabilities) Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) December 28, 2019 $(317) $(317) $— $— $(317) $(317) $— $— Fair Value Measurements Assets (Liabilities) Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) December 29, 2018 $(4,118) $(4,118) $— $— $(4,118) $(4,118) $— $— Description Aluminum forward contracts, net Description Aluminum forward contracts 13.

Blocker was a single-purpose U.S. tax blocker which held a 18.06% ownership percentage of the combined ownership of WWS, and for which that portion of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the WWS Acquisition was not eligible for a step-up in basis. As a result, we recorded a net deferred tax liability in the WWS Acquisition, primarily relating to the fair value of the acquired identifiable indefinite-lived and amortizable intangible assets. The components of the net deferred tax liability recorded in the WWS Acquisition is as follows: Deferred tax assets (liabilities) relate to: Amortizable intangible assets Other indefinite lived intangible assets Property, plant and equipment Other Net deferred tax liability Final Allocation $(1,082) (3,372) (759) 33 $(5,180) Deferred Income Taxes Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of our net deferred tax liability are as follows: December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 (in thousands) Deferred tax assets: Operating lease liability Advance supplier consideration Other deferrals and accruals, net Stock-based compensation expense Accrued warranty State bonus depreciation and net operating loss carryforwards Derivative financial instruments Acquisition costs Allowance for doubtful accounts Obsolete inventory and UNICAP adjustment $ 7,328 3,527 2,533 1,640 1,485 1,705 79 1,305 915 606 $ — 4,280 2,100 1,796 1,442 1,414 1,053 1,022 642 515 Total deferred tax assets 21,123 14,264 Deferred tax liabilities: Trade names and other intangible assets, net Property, plant and equipment Goodwill Operating lease right-of-use asset Prepaid expenses Total deferred tax liabilities (20,801) (12,923) (8,525) (6,521) (298) (49,068) (20,935) (10,741) (5,092) — (254) (37,022) Total deferred tax liabilities, net $(27,945) $(22,758) - 80 - Tax-Deductible Goodwill We acquired goodwill deductible for tax purposes in the CGI acquisition as the transaction was treated as an acquisition of stock for tax purposes. At the date of the acquisition, the amount of goodwill deductible for tax purposes from the CGI acquisition was $9.3 million. At the time of the acquisition, this goodwill was the same amount for both book and tax purposes and, therefore, no deferred tax asset or liability was recognized. As we amortize this goodwill for tax purposes over its remaining life, which was approximately 7.4 years at the time of the acquisition, we will recognize a deferred tax liability. The unamortized amount of this goodwill was $2.7 million and $4.0 million at December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, respectively. We have goodwill deductible for tax purposes in the WinDoor acquisition as the transaction was an acquisition of stock that was treated as a step-up acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities pursuant to our election under section 338(h)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code. We are deducting goodwill for tax purposes of $38.9 million from the WinDoor transaction. The unamortized amount of this goodwill was $28.7 million and $31.3 million at December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, respectively. We have goodwill deductible for tax purposes in the US Impact acquisition as the transaction was treated as an acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities for both book and tax purposes. We expect to be able to deduct goodwill for tax purposes of $569 thousand from the USI transaction. The unamortized amount of this goodwill was $440 thousand and $478 thousand at December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, respectively. We have goodwill deductible for tax purposes in the WWS Acquisition. Goodwill relating to the 81.94% portion of the transaction treated as a step-up acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities totaled $133.6 million. We expect to be able to deduct this goodwill for tax purposes. The unamortized amount of this goodwill was approximately $121.0 million and $129.9 million at December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, respectively. WWS has historical tax goodwill, of which the 18.06% portion of the Blocker treated as an acquisition of stock not eligible for step-up totaled $6.0 million. The unamortized portion of this goodwill was approximately $5.3 million and $5.8 million at December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, respectively. This component can continue to be deducted by the Company for tax purposes. Net Operating Loss Carryforwards and Valuation Allowance We estimate that we have $1.7 million of tax-affected state bonus depreciation and operating loss carryforwards, as of December 28, 2019, expiring at various dates through 2028. We have no valuation allowances on deferred tax assets at December 28, 2019, or December 29, 2018, as management’s assessment of our ability to realize our deferred tax assets is that it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient future taxable income to realize all of our deferred tax assets. Excess Tax Benefits We adopted ASU 2016-09 effective on January 1, 2017. As a result, excess tax benefits resulting from the exercise of stock options and lapse of restriction on stock awards are now recognized as a discrete item in tax expense, where previously such tax effects had been recognized in additional paid-in-capital. Income tax expense in the years ended December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, includes excess tax benefits totaling $2.1 million and $5.2 million, respectively. Open Tax Years The tax years 2014 to 2019 remain open for examination by the IRS due to the statute of limitations and net operating losses utilized in prior tax years. - 81 - The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law the Tax Act. The Tax Act includes significant changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system, including a Federal corporate rate reduction from 35% to 21%, effective January 1, 2018, limitations on the deductibility of interest expense and executive compensation, the elimination of the Section 199 domestic production activities deduction, and further restricting the deductibility of certain already restricted expenses. The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse. As a result of the reduction in the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% under the Tax Act, the Company revalued its ending net deferred tax liabilities at December 30, 2017 and recognized a $12.4 million tax benefit in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 30, 2017. With the finalization and filing of our Federal income tax return for our fiscal year of 2017, we made an adjustment to this revaluation gain in income tax expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 29, 2018, which reduced this gain by approximately $231 thousand. 14. Leases, Commitments and Contingencies Leases We lease certain of our manufacturing facilities under operating leases. We also lease production equipment, vehicles, computer equipment, storage units and office equipment under operating leases. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 9 years, some of which may include options to extend the leases for up to 5 years, and some of which may include options to terminate the leases within 1 year. All of our leases are operating leases. We did not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for certain short-term leases that are month-to-month leases. The lease expense relating to these leases is not significant. As of December 28, 2019, we had no additional operating or finance leases that have not yet commenced. Our operating leases expire at various times through 2028. Lease expense was $8.9 million, $6.4 million and $4.7 million for the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, respectively. Lease expense for the year ended December 28, 2019, includes $4.7 million classified in cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations, with the remainder as selling, general and administrative expenses. The components of lease expense for the year ended December 28, 2019, are as follows (in thousands): Operating lease cost Variable lease cost Total lease cost Year Ended December 28, 2019 $6,213 2,730 $8,943 - 82 - Other information relating to leases for the year ended December 28, 2019, are as follows (in thousands, except years and percentages): Year Ended December 28, 2019 Supplemental cash flows information Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash flows relating to operating leases $(6,213) Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations: Operating leases Weighted average remaining lease term in years Operating leases Weighted average discount rate Operating leases $ 796 3.88 6.2% Future minimum lease commitments for non-cancelable operating leases are as follows (in thousands): 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 Thereafter Total future minimum lease payments Less: Imputed interest Operating lease liability—total Reported as of December 28, 2019 Current portion of operating lease liability Operating lease liability, less current portion Operating lease liability—total December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 $ 6,343 6,354 4,748 3,831 3,801 3,892 13,993 $42,962 $ — 6,319 4,771 3,878 3,741 3,771 13,691 36,171 (7,428) $28,743 $ 4,703 24,040 $28,743 Purchase Commitments We are obligated to purchase certain raw materials used in the production of our products from certain suppliers pursuant to stocking programs. If these programs were cancelled by us, as of December 28, 2019, we would be required to pay $14.9 million for various materials. During the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, we made purchases under these programs totaling $216.0 million, $278.9 million and $175.7 million, respectively. The Company expects to utilize its purchase commitments in its normal ongoing operations. At December 28, 2019, we had $2.0 million in standby letters of credit related to our workers’ compensation insurance coverage, and commitments to purchase equipment of $1.4 million. - 83 - Legal Proceedings We are a party to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate disposition of those proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the outcome of any claim that is pending or threatened, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a materially adverse effect on our operations, financial position or cash flows. 15. Employee Benefit Plans Defined Contribution Plan We have a 401(k) plan covering substantially all employees 18 years of age or older who have at least three months of service. Employees may contribute up to 100% of their annual compensation subject to Internal Revenue Code maximum limitations. We currently make matching contributions based on our operating results. During the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, there was a matching contribution of up to 3%, in each year made at various times during the year. Company contributions and earnings thereon vest at the rate of 20% per year of service with us when at least 1,000 hours are worked within the Plan year. We recognized expenses for such employer matching of $2.9 million, $2.7 million and $1.8 million for the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, respectively. 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan On May 22, 2019, our shareholders approved and we adopted the 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2019 ESPP”) whereby eligible employees may purchase the Company’s common stock at a discount from fair market value represented by the trading price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE. Eligible employees may purchase the Company’s common stock at a price which is determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, but which will be no less than 85% of fair market value, as defined in the 2019 ESPP. There is a maximum of 700,000 shares issuable under the 2019 ESPP. In the year ended December 28, 2019, the number of shares issued and compensation expense recognized under the 2019 ESPP were not significant. 16. Related Parties In the ordinary course of business, we sell windows to Builders FirstSource, Inc. Two of our directors, Floyd F. Sherman, and Brett Milgrim, are directors of Builders FirstSource, Inc. Total net sales to Builders FirstSource, Inc. were $21.9 million, $17.2 million and $13.8 million for the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, respectively. As of December 28, 2019, and December 29, 2018, there was $2.6 million and $2.2 million due from Builders FirstSource, Inc. included in accounts receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. 17. Shareholders’ Equity Special Employee Grants of Company Common Stock At three times during 2018, we made grants of the Company’s common stock totaling 28,160 shares to employees of the Company who do not participate in the Company’s long-term equity incentive compensation programs. The intent of the grants was to foster a sense of ownership in the Company by employees other than those who participate in the Company’s long-term equity incentive program. Each employee that participated in these grants received ten shares of the Company’s common stock, with full rights of ownership, including dispositive rights. These awards had a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $20.84 per share based on the closing New York Stock Exchange market price of the common stock on the business day prior to the day each award was granted. The resulting fair value of these grants totaling $587 thousand was recognized as stock-based compensation expense classified as selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying - 84 - consolidated statement of operations and included in stock-based compensation in the accompanying statement of cash flows for the year ended December 29, 2018, as well as recorded as common stock at par value and additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 29, 2018. 2018 Equity Issuance On September 18, 2018, we completed an underwritten, public offering of 7,000,000 shares of our common stock, at a public offering price of $23.00 per share. The offering resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of $161.0 million. Net of an underwriting fee of $1.15 per share, net cash proceeds to the Company approximated $153.0 million. We used $152.0 million of these proceeds to prepay borrowings outstanding under the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022. The remainder of the proceeds were used for working capital or general corporate purposes, including payment of offering expenses of approximately $447 thousand, classified as a reduction of additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 29, 2018. Repurchases of Company Common Stock During 2019 and 2018, we repurchased 34,240 shares and 35,691 shares, respectively, of our common stock at a total cost of $505 thousand and $687 thousand, respectively, all relating to purchases from employees to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock awards. Those shares were immediately retired. We also repurchased shares of our common stock on the open market during 2019, as further described in the next paragraph. Program for Repurchases of Company Common Stock On May 22, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a share repurchase program of up to $30 million. The repurchases may be made in open market or private transactions from time to time. Repurchases of shares may be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit repurchases when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under applicable laws. The Company bases repurchase decisions, including the timing of repurchases, on factors such as the Company’s stock price, general economic and market conditions, the potential impact on the Company’s capital structure, the expected return on competing uses of capital such as strategic acquisitions and capital investments, and other corporate considerations, as determined by management. From the inception of the program on May 22, 2019, through December 28, 2019, we made repurchases of 393,819 shares of our common stock at a total cost of $5.5 million under this program. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. 18. Stock-Based Compensation 2019 Equity Plan On May 22, 2019, our shareholders approved, and we adopted the 2019 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2019 Equity Plan”) whereby equity-based awards may be granted by the Board to eligible non-employee directors, selected officers and other employees, advisors and consultants of ours. A summary of certain key features and terms of the 2019 Equity Plan is set forth below. A more complete discussion about the 2019 Equity Plan is set forth in the Company’s proxy statement for its 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on April 23, 2019. 2019 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan • • sets forth the total number of shares of common stock available for grant thereunder, at 1,550,000, sets forth the types of awards eligible under the plan, including issuances of options, share appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, share bonuses, other share-based awards and cash awards, and - 85 - • • set forth the maximum number of shares that may be made subject to awards in any calendar year to any “covered employee” (within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code). shares previously granted under predecessor plans, including the 2014 Equity Plan and the 2006 Equity Plan, may be available for issuance under the 2019 Equity Plan under certain circumstances described below. There were 1,505,705 shares available for grant under the 2019 Equity Plan at December 28, 2019. 2014 Equity Plan On March 28, 2014, we adopted the 2014 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Equity Plan”) whereby equity-based awards may be granted by the Board to eligible non-employee directors, selected officers and other employees, advisors and consultants of ours. On May 7, 2014, our stockholders approved the 2014 Equity Plan. 2014 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan • • • set forth the total number of shares of common stock available for grant thereunder, at 1,500,000, sets forth the types of awards eligible under the plan, including issuances of options, share appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, share bonuses, other share-based awards and cash awards, and set forth the maximum number of shares that may be made subject to awards in any calendar year to any “covered employee” (within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code). With the adoption of the 2019 Equity Plan effective on May 22, 2019, no further shares will be granted and, therefore, no shares are available under the 2014 Equity Plan. However, a previously issued grant under the 2014 Equity Plan which is cancelled or forfeited, expires, is settled for cash, or is unearned, is available to be issued under the 2019 Equity Plan. 2006 Equity Plan On June 6, 2006, we adopted the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Equity Plan”) whereby equity-based awards could be granted by the Board to eligible non-employee directors, selected officers and other employees, advisors and consultants of ours. On April 6, 2010, our stockholders approved the PGT Innovations, Inc. (formerly PGT, Inc.) Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Incentive Plan”). With the adoption of the 2014 Equity Plan effective on March 28, 2014, no further shares were granted under and, therefore, no shares were available under the Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Incentive Plan. However, a previously issued grant made under the Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Incentive Plan which is cancelled or forfeited, expires, is settled for cash, or is unearned, is available to be issued under the 2019 Equity Plan. New Issuances During 2019, we issued a total of 609,245 shares of restricted stock awards to certain directors, executives and non-executive employees of the Company, including 80,000 from the 2019 Equity Plan, with the remainder from the 2014 Equity Plan. The restrictions on these awards lapse at various time periods through 2022 and had a weighted average fair value on the dates of the grants of $16.81 per share. The more significant of the grants that compose this total are described below. On January 10, 2019, we issued 176,775 shares of restricted stock awards to certain non-executive employees of the Company in a special award for non-management employees intended to reward each employee’s service to the Company based on years of service. Each participating employee received either 50, 75 or 100 shares of restricted stock based on the employee’s tenure with the Company, which vests on the third anniversary of the grant date. This stock had a fair value on the date of grant of $16.86 per share. - 86 - On February 14, 2019, we issued 258,628 shares of restricted stock to certain executive and non-executive employees of the Company, under the Company’s 2019 long-term incentive plan (“2019 LTIP”). The final number of shares awarded under the 2019 LTIP on February 14, 2019, is subject to adjustment based on the performance of the Company for the 2019 fiscal year and will become final after December 28, 2019, as one-half of the restricted stock awarded in the February 14, 2019 grants was performance restricted shares which would not be earned unless certain financial performance metrics were met by the Company for the 2019 fiscal year. The performance criteria, as defined in the share awards, provided for a graded awarding of shares based on the percentage by which the Company meets earnings before interest and taxes, as defined, in our 2019 business plan. The percentages, ranging from less than 80% to greater than 120% of the target amount of that EBIT metric, provide for the awarding of shares ranging from 0% to 150% of the target amount of shares with respect to half of the 258,628 shares, or 129,314 shares. The final award is also affected by forfeitures upon the termination of a grantee’s employment with the Company. The remaining 129,314 shares from the February 14, 2019, issuance under the 2019 LTIP are not subject to adjustment based on any performance or other criteria, but rather, vest in three equal installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, assuming the grantee is employed by the Company on those vesting dates. The grant date fair value of the February 14, 2019, award was $17.76 per share. On March 1, 2019, we issued 33,663 shares of restricted stock to certain executive and non-executive employees of the Company, under the Company’s 2018 long-term incentive plan (“2018 LTIP”). The additional share granted under the 2018 LTIP relate to the Company’s 2018 actual financial performance having exceeded the performance criteria as defined in the 2018 LTIP. The grant date fair value of these addition 2018 LTIP shares is equal to the fair value of the initial 2018 LTIP grant on March 2, 2018, which was $18.40 per share. On May 22, 2019, we issued a total of 37,000 shares of restricted stock awards to the eight non-employee board members of the Company as the non-cash portion of their annual compensation for participation on the Company’s Board of Directors. The restrictions on these awards lapse one year after the grant date. The awards have a weighted average fair value on date of grant of $15.35 based on the New York Stock Exchange market price of the common stock on the close of business on the day the awards were granted. At three times during 2018, we made grants of the Company’s common stock to employees of the Company who do not participate in the in the Company’s long-term equity incentive plan. See Note 17, “Special Employee Grants of Company Common Stock”, which includes a discussion of the related total stock-based compensation expense recognized. We record stock compensation expense over an equity award’s vesting period based on the award’s fair value at the date of grant. In 2019, we recorded compensation expense for stock-based awards of $3.9 million for the year ended December 28, 2019. We recorded stock-based compensation expense for stock-based awards of $3.4 million, including $587 thousand relating to the special employee grants of common stock discussed in Note 17, for the year ended December 29, 2018, and $1.9 million for the year ended December 30, 2017, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. See Note 13 for a discussion of excess income tax benefits for the three years ended December 28, 2019. - 87 - Stock Options A summary of the status of our stock options as of December 28, 2019, and changes during the year then ended, is presented below: Outstanding at December 29, 2018 Exercised Outstanding at December 28, 2019 Exercisable at December 28, 2019 Number of Shares 1,035,081 (682,931) 352,150 352,150 Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Life in Years $2.20 $2.29 $2.02 $2.02 0.7 0.7 The following table summarizes information about employee stock options outstanding at December 28, 2019, (dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts): Exercise Price $2.00-$2.31 Remaining Contractual Life Outstanding Intrinsic Value Exercisable Outstanding Exercisable Intrinsic Value 0.7 Years 352,150 352,150 $4,502 $4,502 352,150 352,150 $4,502 $4,502 The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and of options exercisable as of December 29, 2018, was $14.0 million and $14.0 million, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and of options exercisable as of December 30, 2017, was $31.8 million and $31.7 million, respectively. The total grant date fair value of options vested during the years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018, and December 30, 2017, was $21 thousand, $21 thousand and $29 thousand, respectively. For the year ended December 28, 2019, we received approximately $1.6 million in proceeds from the exercise of 682,931 options for which we recognized $2.1 million in excess tax benefits as a discrete item of income tax expense. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the year ended December 28, 2019, was $8.8 million. For the year ended December 29, 2018, we received approximately $2.2 million in proceeds from the exercise of 1,119,247 options for which we recognized $5.2 million in excess tax benefits as a discrete item of income tax expense. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the year ended December 29, 2018, was $20.3 million. For the year ended December 30, 2017, we received approximately $0.9 million in proceeds from the exercise of 470,622 options for which we recognized $1.8 million in excess tax benefits through additional paid in capital. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the year ended December 30, 2017, was $5.1 million. Restricted Share Awards There were 609,245 restricted share awards granted in the year ended December 28, 2019, which will vest at various time periods through 2022. - 88 - A summary of the status of restricted share awards as of December 28, 2019, and changes during the year then ended, are presented below: Outstanding at December 29, 2018 Granted Vested Forfeited/Performance adjustment Outstanding at December 28, 2019 Number of Shares 362,626 609,245 (164,226) (69,980) 737,665 Weighted Average Fair Value $14.26 $16.81 $12.70 $16.75 $16.58 As of December 28, 2019, the remaining compensation cost related to non-vested share awards was $5.7 million which is expected to be recognized in earnings using an accelerated method resulting in higher levels of compensation costs occurring in earlier periods over a weighted average period of 1.7 years. 19. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss The following table shows the components of accumulated other comprehensive loss for the years ended December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018.

Segments We have two reportable segments: the Southeast segment, and the Western segment. The Southeast reporting segment, which is also an operating segment, is composed of our sales in Florida, the core market of our legacy business, as well as Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and the Caribbean. The Western reporting segment, also an operating segment, is composed of sales in the remainder of the United States, along with Canada and Mexico. The operations of the Western segment are composed primarily of the results of WWS and the results of the legacy operations of the Company in the west.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosure Controls and Procedures Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(c) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) as of December 28, 2019. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. These disclosure controls and procedures include, among other things, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible disclosure controls and procedures relative to their costs to implement and maintain. Based on management’s evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of December 28, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal Control over Financial Reporting Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) refers to the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. We have evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2019. The evaluation was performed based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on such evaluation, management concluded that, as of such date, our internal control over financial reporting is effective. The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2019, has been audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, which also audited the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 28, 2019. KPMG LLP’s report on internal control over financial reporting is set forth below. - 92 - Changes in internal control over financial reporting There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting for the quarter ended December 28, 2019, identified in connection with the evaluation described above that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Attestation report of the registered public accounting firm. Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Shareholders and Board of Directors PGT Innovations, Inc.: Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We have audited PGT Innovations, Inc. and subsidiaries’ (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 28, 2019, and the related notes and financial statement schedule (collectively, the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated February 26, 2020 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial 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 financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules 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 perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in - 93 - accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future 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. /s/ KPMG LLP Tampa, Florida February 26, 2020 Item 9B.

We believe that presentation of non-GAAP measures such as adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA provides investors and analysts with an alternative method for assessing our operating results in a manner that enables investors and analysts to more - 102 - thoroughly evaluate our current performance compared to past performance. We also believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors with a better baseline for assessing our future earnings potential. The non-GAAP measures included in this appendix are provided to give investors access to types of measures that we use in analyzing our results. Adjusted net income consists of GAAP net income adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. Adjusted EBITDA consists of adjusted net income, adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. We believe that adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and analysts about the Company’s performance because they eliminate the effects of period to period changes in taxes, costs associated with capital investments and interest expense. Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA do not give effect to the cash the company must use to service its debt or pay its income taxes and thus do not reflect the funds generated from operations or actually available for capital investments. Our calculations of Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA are not necessarily comparable to calculations performed by other companies and reported as similarly titled measures. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP measures.
