NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual financial statements. Reference should be made to the Company’s year-end financial statements and notes thereto contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, as filed with the Commission.
The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial information included in this report contains all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The January 3, 2021, consolidated condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
The nine-month period ended October 3, 2021 includes 39 weeks, and the nine-month period ended October 4, 2020 includes 40 weeks. The three-month periods ended October 3, 2021 and October 4, 2020 both include 13 weeks.
Risks and Uncertainties
The World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic in March 2020, and many companies have experienced disruptions in their operations. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on the assumptions and estimates used and determined that, except for the goodwill and intangible asset impairment recorded in the first quarter of 2020 and discussed in Note 10 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” the continued impacts to our global supply chain, and its consequent impacts on production volume, raw material shortages, raw material cost increases, higher freight costs, shipping delays and labor shortages, gross profit margins, operating income, net income, cash flows, and order rates, there were no other material adverse impacts on the Company’s results of operations and financial position at October 3, 2021. The Company’s primary credit facility has various financial and other covenants including, but not limited to, a covenant to not exceed a maximum secured net debt to EBITDA ratio, as defined by the credit facility agreement. The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility agreement and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future. The full extent of the future impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations is uncertain. A prolonged COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have a material adverse impact on our operations, financial condition, and supply chains. It may negatively impact our ability to collect outstanding receivables, manage inventory, produce our products and service customers. The impact of COVID-19 could result in additional impairment losses related to goodwill, intangible assets, and property, plant and equipment.
As the virus spreads through communities, it could impact the physical health, mental health, and productivity of our workforce as many of them are required to shelter in place and work from home for prolonged periods of time, and it could also impact our ability to reach our customers and collaborate with them as they are required to shelter in place and work from home for prolonged periods of time. The COVID-19 pandemic is having broad and negative implications on the global economy, which affects the size and timing of our customers’ capital budgets, and could result in delays or terminations of new and existing renovation projects, remodeling projects, new construction projects, and other projects where our products are used.
COVID-19 Impact
We continue to monitor our operations and have implemented various programs to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 on our business. Our global supply chain and manufacturing operations continue to experience increased impacts of COVID-19 including raw material shortages, raw material cost increases, higher freight costs, shipping delays, and labor shortages – particularly in the United States.

Reclassifications
In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company determined that it has two operating and reportable segments – namely Americas (“AMS”) and Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia (collectively “EAAA”). The AMS operating segment is unchanged from prior year and continues to include the United States, Canada and Latin America geographic areas. Segment disclosures for 2020 have been restated to conform to the current reportable segment structure. See Note 11 entitled “Segment Information” for additional information.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
On January 4, 2021, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, “ Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes .” The amendments in this update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740 related to intraperiod tax allocation, the calculation of income taxes in interim periods, and the accounting for outside basis differences of foreign subsidiaries and equity method investments. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of ASC Topic 740, including franchise or similar taxes partially based on income, the accounting for a step-up in tax basis goodwill, and interim recognition of an enacted change in tax laws or rates, by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-04, “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting .” This standard addresses the risks from the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and provides optional expedients and exceptions to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR if certain criteria are met. This new guidance is effective and may be applied beginning March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. While the Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard, we do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue from sales of carpet, modular resilient flooring, rubber flooring, and other flooring-related material was approximately 98 % of total revenue for both nine-month periods ended October 3, 2021 and October 4, 2020. The remaining 2 % of revenue was generated from the installation of carpet and other flooring-related material for both 2021 and 2020 nine-month periods.
Disaggregation of Revenue
For the nine months ended October 3, 2021 and October 4, 2020, revenue from the Company’s customers is broken down by geography as follows:

NOTE 4 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company computes basic earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including participating securities outstanding, during the period as discussed below. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic EPS that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would have shared in the Company’s earnings.
The Company includes all unvested stock awards which contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, in the number of shares outstanding in the basic and diluted EPS calculations when the inclusion of these shares would be dilutive. Unvested share-based awards of restricted stock are paid dividends equally with all other shares of common stock. As a result, the Company includes all outstanding restricted stock awards in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS. Distributed earnings include common stock dividends and dividends earned on unvested share-based payment awards. Undistributed earnings represent earnings that were available for distribution but were not distributed. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

Syndicated Credit Facility
The Syndicated Credit Facility (the “Facility”) provides the Company and certain of its subsidiaries a multicurrency revolving loan and U.S. denominated and multicurrency term loans. Interest on base rate loans is charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. Interest on Eurocurrency-based loans and fees for letters of credit are charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin over the applicable Eurocurrency rate, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company pays a commitment fee per annum (depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter) on the unused portion of the Facility.
As of both October 3, 2021 and January 3, 2021, the Company had $ 1.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Facility.
As of both October 3, 2021 and January 3, 2021, the carrying value of the Company’s borrowings under the Facility approximated its fair value as the Facility bears interest rates that are similar to existing market rates.
Under the Facility, the Company is required to make quarterly amortization payments of the term loan borrowings, which are due on the last day of the calendar quarter.
The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the Facility and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future.
5.50% Senior Notes due 2028
The 5.50% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Senior Notes”) bear an interest rate at 5.50 % per annum and mature on December 1, 2028. Interest is paid semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on June 1, 2021. The Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, all of which also guarantee the obligations of the Company under its existing Facility.
-12-
Table of Contents
As of October 3, 2021, the estimated fair value of the Senior Notes was $ 316.5 million, compared with a carrying value recorded in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheet of $ 300.0 million, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs. The fair value of the Senior Notes is derived using quoted prices for similar instruments and is considered Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Other Lines of Credit
Subsidiaries of the Company had an aggregate of the equivalent of $ 6.0 million of other lines of credit available at interest rates ranging from 3.5 % to 6.0 % as of both October 3, 2021 and January 3, 2021. As of October 3, 2021 and January 3, 2021, there were no borrowings outstanding under these lines of credit.
Borrowing Costs
Debt issuance costs associated with the Company’s Senior Notes and term loans under the Facility are reflected as a reduction of long-term debt in accordance with applicable accounting standards. As these fees are expensed over the life of the outstanding borrowing, the debt balance will increase by the same amount as the fees that are expensed. As of October 3, 2021 and January 3, 2021, the unamortized debt issuance costs recorded as a reduction of long-term debt were $ 7.7 million and $ 8.6 million, respectively.
Other deferred borrowing costs, which include underwriting, legal and other direct costs related to the issuance of revolving debt, net of accumulated amortization, were $ 1.7 million and $ 2.0 million as of October 3, 2021 and January 3, 2021, respectively. These amounts are included in other assets in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets. The Company amortizes these costs over the life of the related debt.

NOTE 6 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Interest Rate Risk Management
From time to time, the Company enters into interest rate swap transactions to fix the variable interest rate on a portion of its term loan borrowing in order to manage a portion of its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The Company’s objective and strategy with respect to these interest rate swaps is to protect the Company against adverse fluctuations in interest rates by reducing its exposure to variability to cash flows relating to interest payments on a portion of its outstanding debt.
Cash Flow Interest Rate Swaps
In the fourth quarter of 2020 the Company terminated its designated interest rate swap transactions with a total notional value of $ 250 million. Hedge accounting was also discontinued at that time. Losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss for these terminated interest rate swaps are reclassified and recorded in the consolidated condensed statements of operations to the extent it is probable that a portion of the original forecasted transactions related to the portion of the hedged debt repaid will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period. See Note 14 entitled “Items Reclassified From Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss” for additional information.
As of October 3, 2021 and January 3, 2021, the remaining accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with the terminated interest rate swaps was $ 4.7 million and $ 8.7 million, respectively, and will be amortized to earnings over the remaining term of the interest rate swaps prior to termination. We expect that approximately $ 3.3 million related to the terminated interest rate swaps will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss as an increase to interest expense in the next 12 months.
The following table summarizes the impact that changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges had on accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, during the three and nine months ended October 4, 2020:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended

Interest rate swap contracts gain (loss) $ 864 $ ( 5,627 )
Derivative Transactions Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Our Asia-Pacific operations, from time to time, purchase foreign currency options to economically hedge inventory purchases denominated in foreign currencies other than their functional currency. The Company’s objective with respect to these foreign currency options is to protect the Company against adverse fluctuations in currency rates by reducing its exposure to variability in cash flows related to payment on inventory purchases. These options are classified as non-designated derivative instruments. Gains and losses on the changes in fair value of these foreign currency options are recognized in earnings each period. As of October 3, 2021, the Company had no outstanding foreign currency options.
The table below sets forth the fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments as of October 3, 2021 and January 3, 2021:

Awards of restricted stock (or a portion thereof) vest with respect to each recipient over a one to three-year period from the date of grant, provided the individual remains in the employment or service of the Company as of the vesting date. Additionally, certain awards (or a portion thereof) could vest earlier in the event of a change in control of the Company, or upon involuntary termination without cause.
Compensation expense related to restricted stock grants was $ 2.8 million and $ 0.6 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2021, and October 4, 2020, respectively. The Company has reduced its expense for restricted stock forfeited during the period.

NOTE 8 – LEASES
General
The Company has operating and finance leases for manufacturing equipment, corporate offices, showrooms, distribution facilities, design centers, as well as computer and office equipment. The Company’s leases have terms ranging from 1 to 20 years, some of which may include options to extend the lease term for up to 5 years, and certain leases may include an option to terminate the lease. Our lease accounting may include these options to extend or terminate a lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.
The Company records a right-of-use asset and lease liability for leases extending beyond one year for operating and finance leases once a contract that contains a lease is executed and we have the right to control the use of the leased asset. The right-of-use asset is measured as the present value of the lease obligation. The discount rate used to calculate the present value of the lease liability was the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for the applicable geographical region.
As of October 3, 2021, there were no significant leases that had not commenced.
The table below represents a summary of the balances recorded in the consolidated condensed balance sheets related to the Company’s leases as of October 3, 2021 and January 3, 2021:

NOTE 10 – GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
In the first quarter of 2021, the Company determined that it has two operating and reportable segments – namely AMS and EAAA. See Note 11 entitled “Segment Information” for additional information. The Company tests goodwill for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level. The Company’s reporting units remain unchanged following the realignment of its operating segments and consist of the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. The Americas reporting unit is the same as the AMS reportable segment, and the Europe and Asia-Pacific reporting units are one level below the EAAA reportable segment.
During the first quarter of 2020, as a result of changes in macroeconomic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company recognized a charge of $ 121.3 million for the impairment of goodwill and certain intangible assets. As a result of the first quarter 2020 assessment, we determined that the fair value for two reporting units was less than their carrying value and recognized a goodwill impairment loss of $ 116.5 million in the first quarter of 2020. The expected decline in revenue due to the impact of COVID-19 contributed to the lower fair value of our Europe and Asia-Pacific reporting units. As such, the goodwill impairment loss was allocated to our Europe and Asia-Pacific reporting units in the amounts of $ 99.2 million and $ 17.3 million, respectively. There were no indicators of additional goodwill impairment as of October 3, 2021.
The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill attributable to each reportable segment for the nine months ended October 3, 2021 are as follows:
AMS EAAA Total

Balance, at January 3, 2021 $ 122,344 $ 43,433 $ 165,777

Balance, at October 3, 2021 $ 112,072 $ 39,786 $ 151,858
Additionally, we determined that the trademarks and trade names intangible assets related to the acquired nora business were also impaired and recognized an impairment loss of $ 4.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. The carrying value of intangible assets was $ 79.0 million at October 3, 2021. There were no indicators of additional intangible asset impairment as of the end of the third quarter of 2021.

NOTE 11 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company determines that an operating segment exists if a component (i) engages in business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs expenses, (ii) has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and (iii) has discrete financial information. Additionally, accounting standards require the utilization of a “management approach” to report the financial results of operating segments, which is based on information used by the CODM to assess performance and make operating and resource allocation decisions. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company largely completed its integration of the nora acquisition, and integration of its European and Asia-Pacific commercial areas and determined that it has two operating segments organized by geographical area – namely (a) Americas (“AMS”) and (b) Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia (collectively “EAAA”). The AMS operating segment is unchanged from prior year and continues to include the United States, Canada and Latin America geographic areas.
Pursuant to the management approach discussed above, the Company’s CODM, our chief executive officer, evaluates performance at the AMS and EAAA operating segment levels and makes operating and resource allocation decisions based on segment adjusted operating income or loss (“AOI”), which includes allocations of corporate selling, general and administrative expenses. AOI excludes nora purchase accounting amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, changes in equity award forfeiture accounting, restructuring charges, asset impairment, severance and other charges, and an SEC settlement fine. Intersegment revenues for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2021 were $ 20.1 million and $ 56.4 million, respectively, and intersegment revenues for the three and nine months ended October 4, 2020 were $ 15.6 million and $ 56.2 million, respectively. Intersegment revenues are eliminated from net sales presented below since these amounts are not included in the information provided to the CODM.
The Company has determined that it has two reportable segments – AMS and EAAA as each operating segment meets the quantitative thresholds defined in the accounting guidance.
Segment information below for fiscal year 2020 has been restated to reflect our new reportable segment structure.

NOTE 13 – INCOME TAXES
The Company determines its provision for income taxes for interim periods using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate and records any changes affecting the estimated annual effective tax rate in the interim period in which the change occurs, including discrete tax items.
During the nine months ended October 3, 2021, the Company recorded a total income tax provision of $ 13.0 million on pre-tax income of $ 46.4 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 28.0 %, as compared to a total income tax provision of $ 5.7 million on a pre-tax loss of $ 85.8 million resulting in an effective tax rate of ( 6.7 )% during the nine months ended October 4, 2020. The effective tax rate for the period ended October 4, 2020 was primarily impacted by a non-deductible goodwill impairment. Excluding the impact of the goodwill impairment, the effective tax rate was 18.7 % during the nine months ended October 4, 2020. The increase in the effective tax rate as compared to the period ended October 4, 2020, excluding the non-deductible goodwill impairment, was due to the one-time favorable impacts of amending prior year tax returns during the nine months ended October 4, 2020.
In the first nine months of 2021, the Company decreased its liability for unrecognized tax benefits by $ 0.6 million. The decrease was primarily due to settlements with taxing authorities and a lapse of applicable statute of limitations. As of October 3, 2021, the Company had accrued approximately $ 10.2 million for unrecognized tax benefits. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company’s deferred tax asset as of October 3, 2021 reflects a reduction for $ 3.0 million of these unrecognized tax benefits.
In October 2021, the statute of limitations for the 2017 U.S. federal income tax return closed. As a result of this lapse in the statute of limitations, the Company will recognize $ 1.2 million of unrecognized tax benefits in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted for changing facts and circumstances, including the progress of tax audits and the closing of statutes of limitations. Based on information currently available, it is reasonably possible that approximately $ 1.7 million of unrecognized tax benefits, including the $ 1.2 million to be recognized in the fourth quarter of 2021, may be recognized within the next 12 months due to a lapse of statute of limitations.

For the nine months ended October 3, 2021, the Company recorded restructuring and asset impairment charges of $ 3.6 million. At October 3, 2021, the restructuring reserve was $ 2.4 million. Below is a discussion of the restructuring plan activities under the 2021 and 2019 restructuring plans.
2021 Restructuring Plan
On September 8, 2021, the Company committed to a new restructuring plan that continues to focus on efforts to improve efficiencies and decrease costs across its worldwide operations. The plan involves a reduction of approximately 188 employees and the closure of the Company’s manufacturing facility in Thailand at the end of the first quarter of 2022. As a result of this plan, the Company expects to incur pre-tax restructuring charges between the third quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2022 of approximately $ 4 million to $ 5 million. The expected charges are comprised of severance expenses ($ 2.2 million), retention bonuses ($ 0.5 million), and asset impairment and other charges ($ 2.0 million). The retention costs of approximately $ 0.5 million will be recognized through the end of fiscal year 2022 as earned over the requisite service periods. Restructuring charges of $ 3.9 million comprised of severance and asset impairment charges were recognized during the third quarter of 2021.
The restructuring plan is expected to result in future cash expenditures of approximately $ 3 million to $ 4 million for payment of the employee severance, employee retention bonuses and other costs of the shutdown of the Thailand manufacturing facility, as described above. The Company expects to complete the restructuring plan in fiscal year 2022 and expects the plan to yield annualized savings of approximately $ 1.7 million.
