Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Filing Explained

The 2023 buyback authorization had $3.7 million remaining; the separate $50 million authorization is available only after it is exhausted.

BlueLinx says it granted 360,887 restricted stock units during the first nine months of fiscal 2026, and each may produce one new common share if its vesting conditions are met. These are potential future issuances, not shares reported as already issued; if issued, they would increase the share count and reduce existing holders’ percentage ownership, absent offsetting changes.

As of October 3, 2026, 863,956 shares remained authorized and available for future equity awards; that is capacity, not an additional grant.

As of October 3, 2026, $3.7 million remained under the 2023 repurchase authorization, and the separate $50 million 2025 authorization may be used only after the 2023 authorization is exhausted. These amounts describe permission to repurchase, not purchases already made; the report says repurchases may occur from time to time, subject to prevailing market conditions and other considerations.

Net working capital financial
"Net working capital is an important measurement"
Net working capital is the amount left when you subtract a company’s short-term bills (like accounts payable and short-term loans) from its short-term assets (cash, money owed to it, and inventory). Think of it as the cash cushion a business has to keep daily operations running — a bigger cushion means fewer short-term funding worries, while a small or negative number can signal pressure to raise cash or cut activity, which matters to investors assessing stability and short-term risk.
antidumping or countervailing (AD/CV) duties regulatory
"classified by the U.S. Department of Commerce as antidumping or countervailing"
finance lease obligations financial
"The Company's finance lease obligations consist of leases"
Long-term commitments a company has to pay for assets it uses under lease contracts that are treated like owned assets for accounting purposes; the company records both the asset and a matching liability for the current value of future lease payments. Investors watch these obligations because they increase reported debt and affect cash flow and borrowing capacity—think of them as loans disguised as rental agreements that change how risky or valuable a company appears.
revolving credit facility financial
"Available borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility"
A revolving credit facility is a type of loan that a business can borrow from whenever it needs money, up to a set limit. It’s like having a credit card for companies—allowing them to borrow, pay back, and borrow again as needed, providing flexibility for managing cash flow or funding short-term expenses.
gross margin financial
"The Company's gross margin increased 170 basis points"
Gross margin is the difference between how much money a company makes from selling its products and how much it costs to produce them, expressed as a percentage of sales. It shows how efficiently a company is turning sales into profit before other expenses like marketing or salaries. Higher gross margin means the company keeps more money from each sale, which is a good sign of financial health.

(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
BlueLinx Holdings Inc., including consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a leading wholesale distributor of residential and commercial building products in the United States. The Company is a two-step distributor and purchases products from manufacturers and distributes those products to dealers and other customers in local markets, who then sell those products to end users. The Company carries a broad portfolio of both branded and private-label stock keeping units (“SKUs”) across two principal product categories: specialty products and structural products. Specialty products include items such as engineered wood, siding, moulding and millwork, outdoor living, specialty lumber and panels, and industrial products. Structural products include items such as lumber, plywood, oriented strand board, rebar, and remesh. The Company also provides a wide range of value-added services and solutions aimed at relieving distribution and logistics challenges for its customers and suppliers, while enhancing their sales and inventory management capabilities.

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the interim reporting guidance of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company is composed of a single reportable segment for financial reporting purposes. The Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of January 3, 2026 contained herein was derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2026 (the “2025 Form 10-K”), as filed with the SEC on February 24, 2026. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows for the reporting periods presented.
 
The Company has condensed or omitted certain notes and other information from the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this report. Therefore, these condensed financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K. The results for the fiscal three and nine months ended October 3, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending January 2, 2027, or any other interim period. For the fiscal reporting periods included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company did not have any items of other comprehensive income (loss), nor did the Company have any accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Fiscal Reporting Periods
The Company operates on a 5-4-4 fiscal calendar and its fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31st of each year and may comprise 53 weeks in certain years. Fiscal 2026 contains 52 weeks and will end on January 2, 2027. Fiscal 2025 contained 53 weeks and ended on January 3, 2026.

The Company’s fiscal third quarter of fiscal 2026 covered the period from July 5, 2026 to October 3, 2026 and throughout this report this fiscal period may be referred to as “Q3 2026” or the “current quarter.” The Company’s fiscal third quarter of fiscal 2025 covered the period from June 29, 2025 to September 27, 2025 and throughout this report this fiscal period may be referred to as “Q3 2025” or the “prior quarter.” Both of these quarterly fiscal periods contained 13 calendar weeks.

The Company’s first nine fiscal months of fiscal 2026 covered the period from January 4, 2026 to October 3, 2026 and throughout this report this fiscal period may be referred to as “Year to Date Fiscal 2026,” the “YTD 2026 period” or the “current YTD period.” The Company’s first nine months of fiscal 2025 covered the period from December 29, 2024 to September 27, 2025 and throughout this report this fiscal period may be referred to as “Year to Date Fiscal 2025,” the “YTD 2025 period” or the “prior YTD period.” Both of these year-to-date fiscal periods covered 39 calendar weeks.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates based on assumptions about current and, for some estimates, future economic and market conditions, which affect reported amounts and related disclosures in the Company’s financial statements. Although current estimates contemplate current and
6

Table of Contents
expected future conditions, as applicable, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from management’s expectations, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

Comparability of Reporting Periods

Other operating, net, on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations may reflect one-time, infrequent, unusual or nonrecurring expenses and/or credits that were not incurred by the Company in each comparative reporting period presented. For Q3 2026 and the YTD 2026 period, Other operating, net primarily reflects external consultant expenses related to the Company’s business and digital transformation initiatives. For the YTD 2025 period, Other operating, net was composed mainly of insurance recoveries received that exceeded the carrying values of property and equipment damaged or destroyed at the Company’s Erwin, Tennessee owned facility by Hurricane Helene in 2024.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company has made no material changes to its significant accounting policies described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in its 2025 Form 10-K. The Company did not adopt any new accounting standards during the YTD 2026 period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted

Costs and Expenses Disclosures. On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which establishes new disaggregation disclosure requirements for certain costs and expenses in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Under the new guidance, an entity must provide details of the components of its expense captions from continuing operations presented on the face of the statement of operations as well as a qualitative description of the amounts remaining that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. Relevant disclosure categories include purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. An entity must also disclose the total amount of selling expenses, and in annual reports, its definition thereof. The disclosure of these costs and expenses will be required in addition to and irrespective of their inclusion in other disclosures. ASU 2024-03 will be effective for the Company for the fiscal 2027 annual reporting period and for interim periods beginning in fiscal 2028. The guidance may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Since this new ASU addresses only disclosures, the Company does not expect its adoption to have any material effects on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating the new disclosures that will be required upon adoption of ASU 2024-03.

Accounting for and Disclosure of Software Costs. On September 18, 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Accounting for and Disclosure of Software Costs (“ASU 2025-06”) to clarify and modernize the accounting for costs related to internal-use software to better address both linear and non-linear development manners. The new guidance removes all references to project stages that are currently in ASC 350-40 and will instead use threshold requirements that entities must apply to decide when to start capitalizing software costs. Specifically, the guidance will require entities to begin capitalizing software costs, including website development costs, when both of the following occur: 1) management authorizes and commits to funding a software project and 2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended (referred to as the “probable-to-complete” recognition threshold). ASU 2025-06 is effective for the Company beginning in interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal 2028, and early adoption is permitted which the Company is evaluating. Entities may apply the guidance using a prospective, retrospective, or modified transition approach. However, under the prospective approach, entities would still be required to apply the new guidance to all new costs incurred for all software projects, including in-process projects, as of the date of adoption. ASU 2025-06 also specifies that the disclosures under ASC 360-10 (Property, Plant, and Equipment) apply overall to capitalized software costs accounted for under ASC 350-40, regardless of how those costs are presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts that ASU 2025-06 may have on its financial position and results of operations, and such impacts may depend in part on the status and type of any in-process software projects at the time of adoption.

2. Business Combination
On October 31, 2025, BlueLinx Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of BlueLinx Holdings Inc., entered into an equity purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) and purchased 100% of the equity interest of Disdero Lumber Co., LLC (“Disdero”). Disdero is engaged in the wholesale distribution of premium specialty building materials that include a complete line of clear lumber and distinctive wood architectural elements that are sold into nearly all 50 states. Disdero’s products are
7

Table of Contents
used primarily in the construction of high-end, custom homes and decks, as well as upscale multi-family residential and commercial properties.

The acquisition of Disdero was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method under ASC 805, Business Combination (“ASC 805”). The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Disdero acquisition were reflected on the Company’s consolidated balance beginning at the close of business on October 31, 2025. Disdero’s results of operations and cash flows are included in the Company’s consolidated financial results beginning at the start of business on November 1, 2025. Disdero became part of the Company’s existing single reportable segment, building products.

The initial purchase price paid on October 31, 2025 was approximately $95.4 million ($95.2 million net after considering cash acquired), which the Company paid from cash on hand. Under the Purchase Agreement, the initial purchase price was subject to customary adjustments, such as adjustments for working capital balances. During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, adjustments for working capital resulted in a $0.9 million reduction in the cash consideration paid by the Company for Disdero, which reduced the value assigned to goodwill.

The acquisition of Disdero included preliminary fair value estimates for acquired intangible assets (customer relationships, trade name, and non-compete agreements), goodwill, and inventory as of the October 31, 2025 acquisition date. Upon subsequent completion of the purchase price allocation during the measurement period, as defined by ASC 805, certain revisions were made to the preliminary fair value amounts assigned to these assets and resulting goodwill. During the first and second quarters of fiscal 2026, the fair values of customer relationships, trade name, and non-compete agreements, and inventory were adjusted by an aggregate decrease of $3.9 million with a corresponding aggregate increase in the value assigned to goodwill. As of October 3, 2026, the Company has completed the purchase price allocation.

Under ASC 805, the excess of total purchase price, which includes the aggregate cash consideration paid in excess of the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed, is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill also includes certain other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as an assembled workforce. The goodwill resulting from the Disdero acquisition is expected to be tax deductible.

The estimated useful life assigned on acquisition date to the customer relationships and non-compete agreements intangible assets is 12 years and 5 years, respectively. At this time, the Company plans to operate the acquired Disdero business under the Disdero trade name indefinitely, and therefore the trade name has been assigned an indefinite life.
3. Inventory
On the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, Inventories, net consist mostly of finished goods inventory, with a limited amount of work-in-process inventory. The cost of inventories is determined by the moving average cost method. The Company includes all material charges directly incurred in bringing inventory to its existing condition and location, including the cost of inbound freight, volume incentives, inventory adjustments, tariffs, duties and other import fees. The Company evaluates the carrying value of its inventory at the end of each fiscal quarter to ensure that inventory, when viewed by category, is carried at the lower-of-cost-or-net-realizable-value (“LCNRV”). This evaluation also considers matters that may impact the net realizable
9

Table of Contents
value of inventory such as damaged or obsolete inventory. Any LCNRV decline that is expected to be restored within the current fiscal year, prior to the inventory being sold, is not recognized in an interim fiscal period. During Q3 2026, the Company made a strategic decision to change the brand and vendor for one of the Company’s key specialty product offerings. As a result, the Company recognized an unusual inventory provision of $2.9 million for certain discontinued inventory items. This amount is reflected as an increase to Cost of products sold on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for Q3 2026 and the YTD 2026 period.

On the Company’s consolidated statements of operations, most of the amount reported in Cost of products sold is composed of costs incurred to purchase inventory that is subsequently resold to customers, including costs related to import duties and tariffs. Import duties and tariffs are not typically passed through to customers as separately billed charges.

Certain import duties are classified by the U.S. Department of Commerce (the “Commerce Department”) as antidumping or countervailing (“AD/CV”) duties and these duties may be subject to periodic review and adjustments by the Commerce Department through a process known as a trade remedy administrative review, which can result in both retroactive and prospective adjustments to duty rates. At the time of importation, the Company tenders AD/CV duty cash deposits (as use of that term has been defined by the Commerce Department) to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“U.S. Customs”) and accounts for duties based on the then-current rates in effect, and records any retroactive adjustments as a change in estimate in the period in which U.S. Customs adjusts duty rates at the time entries subject to AD/CV duties liquidate (as use of that term has been defined by the Commerce Department), typically through the resolution of a trade remedy administrative review proceeding. Any such retroactive adjustments for AD/CV duties either increase or decrease the Company’s Cost of products sold in the reporting period that the duty rates are adjusted since substantially all impacted inventories have typically been subsequently sold.

Retroactive adjustments to certain AD/CV duty rates resulted in a net benefit to Cost of products sold of $2.2 million for the Company during Q3 2026 and the YTD 2026 period. Retroactive adjustments to certain AD/CV duty rates resulted in additional Cost of products sold of $2.2 million net for the Company during Q3 2025. During the YTD 2025 period, retroactive adjustments and refunds for certain AD/CV duty rates resulted in a net credit of $0.2 million to the Company’s Cost of products sold. Additionally, the Company received interest income related to certain AD/CV refunds of $0.1 million and $0.5 million during the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, respectively.

See Note 9, Commitments and Contingencies, to these unaudited consolidated financial statements for disclosures concerning other matters related to import duties.
4. Goodwill and Intangible Assets, net
As disclosed in Note 2, Business Combination, to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, during the YTD 2026 period the values assigned to intangible assets and goodwill associated with the Disdero business combination were adjusted as permitted under the measurement period provisions of ASC 805. During this same fiscal reporting period, the only other changes to the carrying values of the Company’s Goodwill and Intangible assets, net, was periodic amortization of definite-lived intangible assets. Amortization expense for definite-lived intangible assets was $1.9 million and $1.0 million for
10

Table of Contents
Q3 2026 and Q3 2025, respectively, and $5.7 million and $2.9 million for the YTD 2026 period and YTD 2025 period, respectively.

The gross carrying amounts, accumulated amortization, and net carrying amounts of the Company’s intangible assets arising from business combinations as of October 3, 2026 were as follows:

which are operated by third parties, where the Company stores owned products to enhance operating efficiencies. The reload channel is employed primarily to service strategic customers that are less economical to service from Company warehouses, and to distribute large volumes of imported products from port facilities. Direct sales are shipped from the manufacturer to the customer and therefore the Company does not take physical possession of the inventory and, as a result, typically generate lower margins than the warehouse and reload distribution channels. The direct distribution channel requires the lowest amount of committed capital and fixed costs.

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would typically be one year or less. These expenses are recorded within SG&A expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

The Company has made an accounting policy election to treat outbound shipping and handling activities as an SG&A expense. Shipping and handling expenses include amounts related to the administration of the Company’s logistical infrastructure, handling of material in its warehouses, and amounts pertaining to the delivery of products to customers, such as fuel and maintenance expenses for mobile fleet, wages for drivers, and third-party freight charges. These expenses were $47.6 million and $41.1 million for Q3 2026 and Q3 2025, respectively, and $138.2 million and $121.9 million for the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, respectively.

Performance obligations in contracts with customers generally consist solely of the delivery of goods.

Interest expense for the reporting periods presented in the above table primarily reflects interest expense for the 2029 Notes, interest expense on finance lease obligations, certain ongoing fees for revolving credit facilities that are classified as interest expense, amortization of debt issuance costs for the 2029 Notes and revolving credit facilities, and amortization of original-issue bond discount on the 2029 Notes. Total amortization of debt issuance costs plus bond discount costs was $0.4 million and $0.5 million for Q3 2026 and Q3 2025, respectively, and $1.2 million and $1.1 million for the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, respectively.

2029 Notes

Interest expense, excluding fees and amortization of debt issuance costs and bond discount, for the 2029 Notes is accrued by the Company in the amount of $4.5 million for each quarterly fiscal period. Interest is paid semi-annually. The 2029 Notes pay the holders interest at a fixed annual rate of 6.0% through maturity. The 2029 Notes are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets, other than accounts receivables, inventory, deposit accounts, securities accounts, business interruption insurance and other related assets. See Note 12, Fair Value, to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information about the 2029 Notes.

Revolving Credit Facility

The Company’s revolving credit facility provides for a senior secured revolving loan and letter of credit facility of up to $350 million and also includes a $35 million swing line subfacility and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $30 million and is scheduled to expire on August 27, 2030. Subject to certain conditions and consents, the Company’s borrowing entities have the option to increase the facility by an aggregate additional principal amount of up to $300 million which could in the future allow total borrowings of up to $650 million.

If borrowings are outstanding, interest accrues at a rate per annum equal to (i) the then-current Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%, with the amount of such margin determined based upon the average of the borrowers’ excess availability (as defined) for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter or (ii) the administrative agent’s base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75%, with the amount of such margin determined based upon the average of the borrowers’ excess availability (as defined) for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter as calculated by the administrative agent.

As of October 3, 2026 and January 3, 2026, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. During the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, the Company incurred no interest expense for its revolving credit facilities since no borrowings were outstanding during those fiscal periods.

The revolving credit facility is a senior secured loan and letter of credit facility that is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets (other than real property), including inventories, accounts receivable, and proceeds from those items.

Debt Covenants

The revolving credit facility and the 2029 Notes contain various covenants and restrictions, including customary financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants as of October 3, 2026 and January 3, 2026. The Company’s right to make draws on the revolving credit facility may be conditioned upon, among other things, compliance with these covenants. These covenants also limit the Company’s ability to, among other things: incur additional debt; grant liens on assets; make investments; repurchase stock; pay dividends and make distributions; sell or acquire assets, including certain real estate assets, outside the ordinary course of business; engage in transactions with affiliates; and make fundamental business changes.

8. Share-Based Compensation
The Company incurred stock-based compensation expense of $3.7 million and $3.5 million in Q3 2026 and Q3 2025, respectively, and $10.1 million and $8.3 million in the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, respectively.

During the YTD 2026 period, the Company issued new grants of 360,887 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with a weighted-average grant-date fair value per RSU of $51.01. These new RSU grants are scheduled to vest in one year, in three years, or over three years, depending on the terms of each grant, with vesting dependent on service requirements. Certain RSU grants made to members of senior management have an additional two-year holding period after vesting. Each RSU grant issued during the YTD 2026 period will potentially result in the future issuance of one share of the Company’s common stock if the vesting conditions are satisfied.

Under the authorization of the 2021 BlueLinx Holdings, Inc. 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended, 863,956 shares of the Company’s common stock remain authorized and available for future issuances of equity-based compensation awards as of

October 3, 2026. This availability includes the additional 750,000 shares that were authorized by the Company’s stockholders pursuant to approval of an amendment to the plan at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders on May 14, 2026.
9. Commitments and Contingencies
Regulatory Matters
Government and regulatory agencies may have the ability to conduct routine audits and periodic examinations of, and administrative proceedings regarding, the Company’s business operations.

As previously disclosed, U.S. Customs gathered initial information from the Company under routine audit procedures, and the information indicated that the Company potentially underpaid import duties in prior periods arising from certain classification discrepancies for products imported into the United States as separately entered shipments. In working with U.S. Customs, the Company has exercised reasonable care to address this matter in an equitable and expeditious manner through the filing of a prior disclosure submission with U.S. Customs. As of October 3, 2026 and January 3, 2026, the Company estimated that it will be required to pay approximately $8.0 million, excluding any interest. This amount is reflected in Other current liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of October 3, 2026 and January 3, 2026. See Note 3, Inventory, to these unaudited consolidated financial statements for disclosure concerning another matter related to import duties.

Matters Regarding Certain Tariffs on Imported Goods

On February 20, 2026, a U.S. Supreme Court ruling invalidated tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") that were not authorized by the U.S. Congress. On April 20, 2026, U.S. Customs disclosed a process to facilitate a phased approach for processing IEEPA tariff refunds. For any potential refunds that may be due to the Company as a result of the February 20, 2026 ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court for tariffs levied under IEEPA, the Company’s current accounting policy is to account for any such tariff refunds by applying the gain contingency accounting model. Accordingly, the Company will recognize any IEEPA tariff refund when it becomes realized or realizable. The Company received IEEPA cash refunds totaling $7.2 million during Q2 2026 for tariffs the Company paid in 2025 and early 2026. This amount is reflected as a reduction of Cost of products sold on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the YTD 2026 period since substantially all of the related inventory had been sold when the Company received the IEEPA cash refunds. IEEPA cash refunds received in Q3 2026 were not material.

Uncertainty continues to exist regarding current and future tariffs. Following the U.S. Supreme Court ruling of February 20, 2026, the U.S. government imposed separate tariffs prospectively under the Trade Act of 1974, which were subsequently struck down by an order of the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”). The U.S. government appealed the CIT order to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which stayed the CIT order pending appeal.

Environmental Matters
From time to time, the Company may be involved in proceedings involving various environmental and pollution control laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which it operates. When the Company believes it has material financial exposure to these matters, it estimates and recognizes adequate liabilities and, if applicable, also timely records any expected recoveries from insurance coverages or subrogation in accordance with GAAP. Such liabilities, when recorded, may or may not be discounted, as required or permitted by GAAP. Based on presently available information, the Company had no material obligations for environmental matters as of October 3, 2026 or January 3, 2026.

Collective Bargaining Agreements
Approximately 19% of the Company’s employees are represented by various local labor unions with terms and conditions of employment governed by collective bargaining agreements (“CBAs”). As of October 3, 2026 two CBAs covering approximately 1.6 percent of the Company’s employees are up for renewal during the remainder of fiscal 2026.

10. Income Taxes

15

Table of Contents
Effective Income Tax Rates

The Company’s effective income tax rates for all reporting periods herein were impacted by the permanent addback to taxable income of certain nondeductible expenses, including certain employee compensation, meals and entertainment expenses, as well as discrete items such as excess tax benefits or expenses realized from settlements of share-based compensation grants. The Company’s effective income tax rates will differ from the statutory rates by such items.

The Company recognized an income tax provision of $3.0 million and $7.4 million for Q3 2026 and the YTD 2026 period, respectively, resulting in effective income tax rates of 126.6% and 63.2%, respectively, that reflect discrete items. The effective income tax rates were impacted by nondeductible expenses.

For Q3 2025 and the YTD 2025 period, the Company realized income tax benefit of $0.3 million and expense of $3.3 million, respectively, resulting in effective income tax rates of (21.4)% and 27.4%, respectively, that reflect discrete items.

11. Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Stockholders' Equity
The Company calculates basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period.

Diluted earnings per share are calculated using the treasury stock method whereby net income for the period is divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect, if any, of shares of stock associated with unvested share-based grants. However, for performance-based share-based grants, the dilutive effect is included only for grants where the performance goals have been achieved.

The reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average common shares outstanding and the calculations for basic earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings per share were as follows for the respective reporting periods:

Diluted (loss) earnings per share$(0.07)$0.20 $0.54 $1.08 
For Q3 2026 and Q3 2025, weighted-average unvested share-based awards totaling 551,353 and 136,277, respectively, were not included in the dilutive effect of share-based awards for the respective periods because their effects were antidilutive. For Q3 2026, 522,843 of the 551,353 aforementioned unvested share-based awards gave rise to 168,099 common stock equivalents that would have been dilutive but for the net loss in the reporting period. During the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, weighted-average unvested share-based awards totaling 45,682, and 59,218, respectively, were not included in the dilutive effect of share-based awards for the respective periods because their effects were antidilutive. Additionally, as of October 3, 2026 and September 27, 2025, a total of 27,406 and 77,703, respectively, of unvested performance-based share awards were outstanding but were not evaluated for potential dilution because their performance metrics had not been achieved as of the end of the respective reporting periods.

Repurchases of Common Stock

On October 31, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors announced a share repurchase program for $100 million. During the YTD 2026 period, the Company repurchased 95,800 shares of its common stock at a weighted-average price of $52.22, including broker commissions but excluding federal excise tax on the repurchases, for a total of $5.0 million. All of these share repurchases in the YTD 2026 period occurred in the first two fiscal quarters. These amounts are based on trade date activity, while the amounts reported on the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows for share repurchases are based on settlement date activity. As of October 3, 2026, there remained approximately $3.7 million repurchase capacity under the authorization approved October 31, 2023.

On July 29, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors announced a new share repurchase program for $50 million. The 2025 authorization may be used after exhaustion of the 2023 authorization.

Under its share repurchase programs, the Company may repurchase its common stock from time to time, without prior notice, subject to prevailing market conditions and other considerations. Repurchases may be made through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, tender offers or pursuant to a trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b5-1.

12. Fair Value

As of October 3, 2026 and January 3, 2026, the Company had no assets or liabilities for which the carrying value is remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has not elected the fair value reporting option for any of its financial instruments.

Fair Value Disclosures

The fair value of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, to the extent the underlying liability will be settled in cash, approximates the carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Debt

The estimated fair value of the Company’s $300 million 2029 Notes was determined based on Level 2 input using observable market prices in less active markets, as presented below:

Periodic amortization of the issuance costs and discount each reporting period causes the carrying value of the 2029 Notes to gradually increase to the $300 million maturity amount scheduled for November 15, 2029. See Note 6, Debt and Finance Lease Obligations, to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
There were no borrowings outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facilities during the YTD 2026 period or during fiscal 2025.

13. Segment Reporting

The Company has one reportable segment: building products. The segment sells building products that are grouped into two primary product categories: specialty products and structural products. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), as that term is defined under U.S. GAAP, is its chief executive officer (CEO). The Company derives substantially all of its revenues from the United States and all of the Company’s assets are located in the United States. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Company’s balance sheet as total consolidated assets. The segment’s accounting policies are
17

Table of Contents
the same as the accounting policies for the Company, as described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K.

The CODM’s method under GAAP used to assess performance and allocate resources is based on Net income (loss) as reported on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. The CODM uses Net income or loss to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into the building products segment or into other business matters, such as acquisitions or repurchases of portions of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The following table presents information about Net income (loss) and significant expenses that are regularly reviewed by the Company’s CODM:

Our Strategy

We remain committed to driving a culture of profitable growth within new and existing product lines and geographies, while positioning the Company for long-term value creation. The following initiatives represent key areas of our management team’s focus:

1.Grow our higher-margin specialty product categories. We continue to pursue a revenue mix weighted towards higher-margin, specialty product categories such as engineered wood products, siding, millwork, outdoor living

Table of Contents
products, specialty lumber and panels, and industrial products. Additionally, we are expanding our value-added service offerings to enhance our customer service proposition. Our acquisition of Disdero in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 enhanced our revenue mix by adding a significant number of new lines of premium specialty building materials, including decking, trim, flooring, paneling, posts, timbers, siding, and stepping.
2.Increase share gain in local and national markets. We continue to pursue multi-family project growth, expand our product lines with key national accounts, expand branded product lines into new geographic markets, and expand SKU assortment with strategic suppliers. With our expanded product categories, and our strategic vendor relationships, we seek to be a better extension of our customers’ business in a scalable way.

3.Foster a performance-driven culture committed to business excellence and profitable growth to be the provider of choice for both suppliers and customers. We seek to improve the customer experience through enhanced tools, value-added services, and technology enablement, accelerating organic growth within specific product and solutions offerings where we are uniquely advantaged; increase our performance by leveraging our scale and national footprint together with pricing, operational and procurement capabilities, and deploy capital to drive sustained margin expansion, grow cash flow and maintain continued profitable growth.

4.Maintain a disciplined capital structure and pursue strategic investments that increase the value of our Company. We continue to strategically target acquisition opportunities that grow our higher-margin specialty products business, expand our geographic reach, or complement our existing capabilities. We also continue to evaluate and identify additional markets that are potential opportunities for new market development. We further seek to maintain a disciplined capital structure while at the same time investing in our business to modernize our distribution facilities, as well as our tractor and trailer fleet, and to improve operational performance. During the fiscal nine months ended October 3, 2026, we:

•Added property & equipment consisting of purchased assets totaling $10.7 million plus assets obtained through finance leases totaling $5.9 million. In addition, we recognized right-of use assets totaling $7.1 million related to operating leases. These additions were used primarily to enhance our facilities, fleet, and technology hardware.
•Returned capital of $5.0 million to our shareholders by using cash to purchase 95,800 shares of our common stock at an average price of $52.19, excluding broker commissions and excise tax.


Business and Digital Transformation

We have initiated a series of business and digital transformation actions focused on redesigning and optimizing key elements of our operating model to improve efficiency, execution, and operating leverage. We currently expect the one-time design and implementation efforts for these initiatives to last until 2028. These actions include business process‑driven initiatives and targeted digital investments intended to simplify operations, reduce complexity, and increase consistency across the enterprise. We have focused on improving organizational efficiency across corporate functions and field operations through process redesign, role clarity, increased standardization, and productivity improvements. In parallel, we are modernizing our logistics and commercial operating capabilities, including the implementation of an enterprise transportation management platform and the use of advanced analytics and artificial intelligence to enhance decision‑making, support optimization across pricing, procurement, and logistics, and improve inventory management and collections efficiency. Collectively, these actions are intended to improve execution consistency, enhance margin performance, strengthen operating leverage, and improve our ability to perform across cyclical market conditions. We believe that certain costs associated with these transformation initiatives, including third-party costs incurred to support the design and implementation of these initiatives, are not representative of our ongoing operating performance.

Acquisition of Disdero

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, we acquired Disdero Lumber Co., LLC (“Disdero”), a value-added distributor focusing on premium specialty building materials, including decking, trim, flooring, paneling, posts, timbers, siding, and stepping. Disdero’s products are used primarily in the construction of high-end, custom homes and decks, as well as upscale multi-family residential and commercial projects. The acquisition of Disdero was funded with cash on hand. Disdero is based near Portland, Oregon and began operations in 1953. We expect the acquisition of Disdero to strengthen and expand our offerings for premium specialty products, which typically have higher profit margins, and increase our market penetration in the Pacific Northwest. We plan to operate Disdero under its established brand name for the foreseeable future.

Factors That Affect Our Operating Results and Trends

Our results of operations and financial performance are influenced by a variety of factors, including the following: adverse housing market conditions, including but not limited to housing starts, construction labor shortages, repair and remodel activity and commercial construction, foreclosure rates, interest rates, unemployment rates and job and wage growth rates, consumer debt levels, tightened availability or affordability of homeowner insurance coverage, and mortgage availability and pricing, as well as other consumer financing mechanisms, that ultimately affect demand for our products; information technology security risks and business interruption risks; consolidation among competitors, suppliers, and customers; escalating changes in retaliatory trade policies of the United States and other countries; our dependence on international suppliers and manufacturers for certain products and related exposure to risks of new or increased tariffs, antidumping and countervailing duties, and other risks that could affect our financial condition; pricing and product cost variability; volumes of product sold; competition; the cyclical nature of the industry in which we operate; loss of products or key suppliers and manufacturers; exposure to liability, including product liability and other claims and legal and regulatory proceedings related to our business, employee injuries, workers compensation claims, and the products we distribute; effective inventory management relative to our sales volume or the prices of the products we produce; acquisitions and the integration and completion of such acquisitions; the success of management initiatives, including our business and digital transformation initiatives; the ability to attract, train, and retain highly qualified associates and other key personnel while controlling related labor costs; increases in the cost of artificial intelligence and other technology tools; home center distribution disruption; business disruptions; natural disasters, catastrophes, fire, wars or other unexpected events; the impacts of climate change; successful implementation of our strategy; wage increases or work stoppages by our union employees; costs imposed by federal, state, local, and other regulations; compliance costs associated with federal, state, and local environmental protection laws; changes in governmental rules and regulations or interpretations thereof; fluctuations in our operating results; our level of indebtedness and our ability to incur additional debt to fund future needs; the covenants of the instruments governing our indebtedness limiting the discretion of our management in operating the business; the potential to incur more debt; the fact that we have consummated certain sale leaseback transactions with resulting long-term non-cancelable leases, many of which are or will be finance leases; the fact that we lease many of our distribution centers, and we would still be obligated under these leases even if we close a leased distribution center; our ability to raise funds necessary to finance a required repurchase of our senior secured notes; a lowering or withdrawal of debt ratings; changes in our product mix; increases in fuel and other energy prices, including as a result of disruptions in international shipping of oil and gas through the Strait of Hormuz and the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, or availability of third-party freight providers; geopolitical risks, such as acts of war or terrorism or political or civil unrest; changes in insurance-related deductible/retention liabilities based on actual loss development experience; the possibility that the value of our deferred tax assets could become impaired; changes in our expected annual effective tax rate could be volatile; the costs and liabilities related to our participation in multi-employer pension plans could increase; the risk that our cash flows and capital resources may be insufficient to service our existing or future indebtedness; interest rate risk, which could cause our debt service obligations to increase; the effects of epidemic, global pandemics or other widespread public health crises; and changes in, or interpretations of, accounting principles. These factors, and the related trends and uncertainties, have historically produced cyclicality in our results of operations, and we expect this cyclicality to continue in future periods.

The aforementioned additional $2.2 million of expense related to AD/CV duties decreased the Company’s gross margin by 30 basis points for Q3 2025.

Specialty products - Net sales of specialty products, which include product types such as engineered wood, siding, millwork, outdoor living, specialty lumber and panels, and industrial products, increased by $24.1 million, or 4.6%, to $549.6 million in Q3 2026 compared to Q3 2025.
•The increase in Net sales for specialty products in the current quarter was due primarily to Disdero. Other than Disdero, overall increases in pricing were offset by overall decreases in volume.
•Specialty products’ Gross profit increased by $15.3 million, or 17.6%, to $102.7 million in Q3 2026 compared to Q3 2025. This increase in Gross profit for specialty products was primarily due to Disdero and margin expansions on several other key product types. The aforementioned AD/CV net benefit of $2.2 million increased Gross profit for specialty products, while the $2.9 million unusual inventory provision decreased Gross profit in the current quarter. The aforementioned cost related to the AD/CV duties lowered Gross profit for specialty products by $2.2 million in Q3 2025.
•Specialty products’ gross margin increased by 210 basis points to 18.7% in Q3 2026 compared to 16.6% in Q3 2025.

•The overall increase in Net sales for structural products in the current quarter was due to increases in pricing and volumes for all product types.
•Compared to Q3 2025, average commodity prices in U.S. markets for Q3 2026 were up approximately 24% for lumber and 15% for panels.
•Structural products’ Gross profit increased overall by $7.4 million, or 35.6%, to $28.3 million in Q3 2026 from $20.8 million in Q3 2025 due primarily to price and volume increases for all product types.
•Structural products’ gross margin for Q3 2026 was 10.7% compared to 9.3% in Q3 2025 due to margin rate expansion for all product types.

Our Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by $16.6 million, or 18.6% in Q3 2026 compared to Q3 2025. This overall increase in the current quarter was due primarily to Disdero, third-party freight expenses, fuel expense, and

employee-related expenses.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.9 million, or 19.9% in Q3 2026 compared to Q3 2025 due to a higher base of depreciable assets, including facility improvements, technology upgrades, and fleet enhancements, and finite-lived intangible assets from the Disdero acquisition. Our depreciation expense includes depreciation for owned assets and assets under finance leases.

Other operating, net for Q3 2026 was a net expense of $2.5 million and was composed mainly of external consulting expenses related to our business and digital transformation initiatives.

Interest expense, net, which includes gross interest expense less gross interest income, was $9.5 million and $8.6 million in Q3 2026 and Q3 2025, respectively, resulting in an increase in net interest expense of $0.9 million in the current quarter.

•Gross interest expense was $12.4 million and $12.5 million in Q3 2026 and Q3 2025, respectively.
•Gross interest income was $2.9 million and $3.9 million for Q3 2026 and Q3 2025, respectively. This decrease in the current quarter was due primarily to lower average balances for interest-bearing deposits of cash and cash equivalents and due to lower interest rates paid on those deposits in the current quarter.

Our effective income tax rates for both quarterly fiscal periods were impacted by the permanent addback to taxable income of certain nondeductible expenses, including certain employee compensation, meals and entertainment, as well as discrete items such as excess tax benefits or expenses realized from settlements of share-based compensation grants. The Company’s effective income tax rates will differ from the statutory rates by such items. We recognized an income tax provision of $3.0 million for Q3 2026, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 126.6% that reflects discrete items. For Q3 2025, we recognized income tax benefit of $0.3 million, resulting in an effective income tax benefit rate of 21.4% for the quarter, which reflects discrete items.

Our Net loss for Q3 2026 was $0.6 million, or $0.07 loss per basic and diluted share, versus Net income of $1.7 million, or $0.20 earnings per basic and diluted share, for Q3 2025. These decreases in the current period were due primarily to the factors previously discussed in this comparison of Q3 2026 to Q3 2025.

•Gross profit and gross margin also benefited from our business and digital transformation efforts.
•We benefited in the YTD 2026 period by $9.4 million for import duty-related items that reduced the Company’s Cost of products sold and benefited the results of specialty products. We also recognized an unusual provision of $2.9 million in the YTD 2026 period for discontinued inventory resulting from a strategic brand and vendor change for one of our key product lines; this provision increased the Company’s Cost of products sold and impacted specialty products.

•The increase in Net sales for specialty products in the YTD 2026 period was due to the acquisition of Disdero and overall higher pricing, partially offset by lower volumes. The increase in pricing was in response to price increases from key vendors and the inflationary impacts on the cost of operating our business.
•Specialty products’ Gross profit increased by $30.4 million, or 11.0%, to $307.8 million in the YTD 2026 period compared to the YTD 2025 period due primarily to inclusion of Disdero’s results and the import duty-related items noted above. This overall increase in Gross profit for specialty products in the YTD 2026 period was partially offset by the aforementioned $2.9 million unusual inventory provision.
•Specialty products’ gross margin increased 100 basis points to 18.9% for the YTD 2026 period compared to 17.9% in the YTD 2025 period, due primarily to the import duty-related items noted above and the inclusion of Disdero’s results.

Our SG&A expenses in the YTD 2026 period increased by $30.9 million, or 11.1%, compared to the YTD 2025 period. This overall increase was due primarily to Disdero, third-party freight expenses, and employee-related expenses.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $6.0 million, or 20.8% in the YTD 2026 period compared to the YTD 2025 period due to a higher base of depreciable assets, including facility improvements, technology upgrades, and fleet enhancements, and finite-lived intangible assets from the Disdero acquisition. Our depreciation expense includes depreciation for owned assets and assets under finance leases.

Other operating, net changed unfavorably by $7.1 million compared to the YTD 2025 period. For the YTD 2026 period, the net expense is composed mainly of external consulting expenses related to our business and digital transformation initiatives.

•Gross interest income was $8.9 million and $13.6 million in the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, respectively. This decrease in the YTD 2026 period was due to lower average balances for interest-bearing deposits of cash and cash equivalents and due to lower interest rates paid on those deposits in the current YTD period.

Our effective income tax rates were 63.2% and 27.4% for the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, respectively, including discrete items. Our effective income tax rates for both year-to-date periods were impacted by the permanent addback of certain nondeductible expenses, including certain employee compensation, meals and entertainment, as well as discrete items such as excess tax benefits or expenses realized from settlements of share-based compensation grants.

Our net income for the YTD 2026 period was $4.3 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, versus $8.8 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, in the YTD 2025 period. Our net income for the YTD 2026 period decreased due primarily to the factors that were previously discussed in this comparison of the YTD 2026 period to the YTD 2025 period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We expect our primary sources of liquidity to be cash flows from sales and operating activities in the normal course of our operations, cash and cash equivalents on hand, and availability from our revolving credit facility, as needed. We expect that these sources will be sufficient to fund our ongoing cash requirements for at least the next 12 months and into the foreseeable future. As of October 3, 2026, we had $350 million of cash and cash equivalents plus $339.1 million of availability on our revolving credit facility.

Senior Secured Notes

We have $300 million of 6.0% senior secured notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) outstanding. Interest is payable semi-annually. Our 2029 Notes are scheduled to mature on November 15, 2029, and no principal is due until that time as long as we remain in compliance with the related covenants. As of October 3, 2026, we were in compliance with these covenants.

Interest payments of $9.0 million for the 2029 Notes are due twice in each calendar year, in May and in November.

Revolving Credit Facility

Our revolving credit facility is scheduled to mature on August 27, 2030. Currently, the maximum borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility is $350 million and it also includes a $35 million swing line subfacility and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $30 million. Subject to certain conditions and consents, we have the option to increase the facility by an aggregate additional principal amount of up to $300 million which could in the future allow total borrowings of up to $650 million.

As of October 3, 2026 and January 3, 2026, we had no outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Available borrowing capacity, reduced for undrawn letters of credit, under the revolving credit facility was $339.1 million and $340.1 million as of October 3, 2026 and January 3, 2026, respectively. Excess availability, which includes availability under the revolving credit facility plus cash and cash equivalents in qualified deposit accounts, was $688.9 million as of October 3, 2026.

Finance Lease Obligations

Our finance lease obligations consist of leases for real estate, equipment, and vehicles totaling $309.7 million and $321.3 million as of October 3, 2026 and January 3, 2026, respectively. Of the $309.7 million for finance lease obligations as of October 3, 2026, $238.8 million related to real estate and $70.9 million related to equipment. Of the $321.3 million for finance lease obligations as of January 3, 2026, $240.6 million related to real estate and $80.6 million related to equipment.

During the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, we used cash of $17.8 million and $12.2 million, respectively, to repay principal portions of finance lease obligations, and also incurred interest expense of $20.8 million and $20.9 million, respectively, for our finance lease obligations. For additional information about our lease obligations and expected impacts on our liquidity, see Note 7, Leases, to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Sources and Uses of Cash
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the YTD 2026 period was $1.4 million compared to net cash used of $2.1 million in the YTD 2025 period. Net income adjusted for non-cash operating items listed on the consolidated statements of cash flows was $54.1 million in the YTD 2026 period compared to $44.1 million in the YTD 2025 period, resulting in a net positive impact of $10.0 million to cash flows from operating activities for the current year-to-date period. However, this amount was partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities on the consolidated statements of cash flows that used an additional $9.3 million of net cash in the YTD 2026 period compared to the YTD 2025 period, resulting in an overall favorable change of $0.7 million in cash flows from operating activities for the YTD 2026 period compared to the YTD 2025 period.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the YTD 2026 period was $9.1 million compared to net cash used of $18.9 million in the YTD 2025 period. During the YTD 2026 period and YTD 2025 period, we paid cash of $10.1 million and $21.5 million,

respectively, to purchase property and equipment. In the YTD 2026 period, we received $0.9 million related to a reduction in the consideration paid for our Disdero acquisition. In the YTD 2025 period, we received initial insurance proceeds of $2.4 million related to property and equipment that was damaged or destroyed due to Hurricane Helene at our Erwin, Tennessee owned facility in September 2024.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $25.6 million for the YTD 2026 period compared to net cash used of $55.4 million for the YTD 2025 period. This change was primarily driven by the decrease in repurchases of our common stock in the current YTD period. During the YTD 2026 period, we used cash of $5.3 million to repurchase shares of our common stock, compared to $38.1 million for the YTD 2025 period. Payments to reduce finance lease obligations also used cash of $17.8 million and $12.2 million for the YTD 2026 period and the YTD 2025 period, respectively.

Common Stock Repurchases

During the YTD 2026 period, we repurchased 95,800 shares of our common stock at an average price of $52.22 per share for a total of $5.0 million, under our 2023 share repurchase authorization. During the YTD 2025 period, we repurchased 503,556 shares of our common stock at an average price of $74.97 for a total of $37.7 million under this same authorization. As of October 3, 2026, there remained $3.7 million of repurchase capacity under the 2023 authorization. These dollar amounts include broker commissions paid but exclude any excise tax that was paid or may be due on the share repurchases under The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

The repurchase dollar amounts noted above are based on trade date activity, while the amounts reported on our consolidated statements of cash flows for share repurchases are based on settlement date activity.

On July 29, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a separate share repurchase program for $50 million. The 2025 authorization may be used after exhaustion of the 2023 authorization.

Under our share repurchase programs, we may repurchase our common stock at any time or from time to time, without prior notice, subject to prevailing market conditions and other considerations. Our repurchases may be made through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, tender offers or pursuant to a trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b5-1.

Net Working Capital

Net working capital is an important measurement we use to determine the efficiencies of our operations and our ability to readily convert assets into cash. Net working capital is defined as the sum of accounts receivable and inventory, less accounts payable and accrued expenses, each determined in accordance with GAAP and included in our consolidated balance sheets. This metric differs from traditional working capital in that it excludes certain current assets and current liabilities that are reported in our consolidated balance sheets. Net working capital of $484.1 million as of October 3, 2026, compared to $407.8 million as of January 3, 2026, increased on a net basis by approximately $76.3 million, as shown below:

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
