ATKORE INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
Organization and Ownership Structure — Atkore Inc. (the “Company”, “Atkore” or “AI”) is a leading manufacturer of Electrical products primarily for the non-residential construction and renovation markets and Safety & Infrastructure solutions for the construction and industrial markets. Atkore was incorporated in the State of Delaware on November 4, 2010 under the name Atkore International Group, Inc. and changed its name to Atkore Inc. on February 16, 2021. As of June 27, 2025, Atkore was the sole stockholder of Atkore International Inc. ("AII").
The Electrical segment manufactures high quality products used in the construction of electrical power systems including conduit, cable, and installation accessories. This segment serves contractors, in partnership with the electrical wholesale channel.
The Safety & Infrastructure segment designs and manufactures solutions including metal framing, mechanical pipe, perimeter security, and cable management for the protection and reliability of critical infrastructure. These solutions are marketed to contractors, original equipment manufacturers and end users.
Basis of Presentation — The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies and on the same basis as those consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 21, 2024, and should be read in conjunction with those consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities used in operating the Company’s business. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of companies acquired or disposed of are included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from the effective date of acquisition or up to the date of disposal.
These statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that the Company considered necessary to present a fair statement of its results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year.
Fiscal Periods — The Company has a fiscal year that ends on September 30. The Company’s fiscal quarters typically end on the last Friday in December, March and June as it follows a 4-5-4 calendar.
Use of Estimates — The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclose contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and report the associated amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
A summary of recently adopted accounting guidance is as follows. Adoption dates are on the first day of the fiscal year indicated below, unless otherwise specified.
ASU
Description of ASU
Impact to Atkore
Adoption Date
2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280); Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
The ASU requires companies to provide additional segment disclosures including disclosing title and position of the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), disclosure of significant segment expenses provided to and reviewed by the CODM, and that public entities provide all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets required by Topic 280 in interim periods.
The Company will adopt the standard in fiscal 2025 and include the disclosures required by the ASU within the Segment Footnote of the annual report and quarterly reports beginning in fiscal 2026.
2025
2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740); Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
The ASU requires companies to provide additional tax disclosures including specific categories in the rate reconciliations and reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Additional disclosures are also required for income tax paid and the disaggregation of domestic and foreign income tax expense.
The Company will adopt the standard in fiscal 2026 and include the disclosures required by the ASU within the Income Tax Footnote of the annual report.
2026
2024-03 Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)
The ASU requires companies to disclose, in the notes to the financial statements, specified information about certain costs and expenses. The amendments in this update do not change or remove current expense disclosure requirements presented on the face of the income statement. However, the amendments require the disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in the notes to financial statements and inclusion of certain current disclosures in the same tabular format as the other disaggregation requirements in the amendments.
The Company will adopt the standard in fiscal 2028 and include the disclosures required by the ASU within the annual report and quarterly reports beginning in fiscal 2029.
2028
2. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
The Company’s revenue arrangements primarily consist of a single performance obligation to transfer promised goods which is satisfied at a point in time when title, risks and rewards of ownership, and subsequently control have transferred to the customer. This generally occurs when the product is shipped to the customer, with an immaterial amount of transactions in which control transfers upon delivery. The Company primarily offers assurance-type standard warranties that do not represent separate performance obligations.
Under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”), the Company is eligible for tax credits related to the manufacturing and selling of components used in the solar energy industry. These tax credits are transferable under the IRA when they meet certain criteria. When credits do not meet the transferability criteria, the benefit is recognized within income tax expense in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Beginning in fiscal 2024, the Company has concluded that the credits generated are transferable. As such, the benefit of the solar energy tax credits is recognized as a reduction of cost of sales.
10
The Company has contractual arrangements with certain customers to transfer a portion of the tax credits or to otherwise provide a rebate based on an agreed-upon value of the tax credits generated. Pursuant to such contractual arrangements, if the tax credits will be transferred to the customer, the Company identifies two separate performance obligations: (1) transfer the promised goods; and (2) transfer of the defined portion of the tax credits earned. The Company allocates the total value of these transactions between the two performance obligations. As a result of this allocation, the Company recognizes a reduction to revenue, similar to a rebate. For arrangements with no transfer of tax credits there is only a single performance obligation to transfer the promised goods and a rebate, which is recognized as a reduction of revenue, is granted based on the agreed-upon value of the tax credits generated.
The solar energy tax credit receivable is recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets and the liability to transfer the defined portion of the tax credits or the economic value thereof is recorded in Customer Liabilities.
For the nine months ended June 27, 2025, the Company has recognized a reduction of revenue of $40,723 for the economic value of tax credits to be transferred and a benefit to cost of sales of $44,866. As of June 27, 2025, the Company had a liability of $20,283 for credits to be transferred or the value thereof. As of June 27, 2025, all activity related to the solar energy tax credits was within the Safety & Infrastructure segment.
The Company has certain arrangements that require it to estimate at the time of sale the amounts of variable consideration that should not be recorded as revenue as certain amounts are not expected to be collected from customers, as well as an estimate of the value of products to be returned. The Company principally relies on historical experience, specific customer agreements, and anticipated future trends to estimate these amounts at the time of sale and to reduce the transaction price. These arrangements include sales discounts and allowances, volume rebates, and returned goods. The Company records its obligations related to these items within the Customer Liabilities line on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company records amounts billed to customers for reimbursement of shipping and handling costs within revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of goods sold. Sales taxes and other usage-based taxes are excluded from revenue. The Company does not evaluate whether the selling price includes a financing interest component for contracts that are less than a year. The Company also expenses costs incurred to obtain a contract, primarily sales commissions, as all obligations will be settled in less than one year.
The Company typically receives payment 30 to 60 days from the point it has satisfied the related performance obligation. See Note 17, “Segment Information” for revenue disaggregated by geography and product categories.
3. ACQUISITIONS
From time to time, the Company enters into strategic acquisitions in an effort to better service existing customers and to obtain new customers. During the nine months ended June 28, 2024, the Company paid out $6,036 of accrued purchase price primarily related to the fiscal 2022 acquisition of Cascade Poly Pipe & Conduit and Northwest Polymers, LLC (“Northwest Polymers”), a post-industrial and post-commercial plastic recycler based in Molalla and Aurora Oregon.
No acquisition activity occurred during the nine months ended June 27, 2025.

In fiscal 2023, the Company initiated plans to exit operations in Russia and expects to sell the related business at a loss. Accordingly, the Company recognized an impairment of the related assets in fiscal 2023 and continues to recognize any incremental gains and losses on those assets.
7. INCOME TAXES
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted into law. The OBBBA contains corporate tax law changes, including the restoration of 100% bonus depreciation; the creation of Section 174A, which reinstates expensing for domestic research and experimental expenditures; modifications to Section 163(j) interest limitations; updates to the rules for global intangibles low-taxed income and foreign-derived intangible income; amendments to the rules for energy credits; and the expansion of Section 162(m) aggregation requirements. The Company is currently evaluating this legislation and determining what impact it would have to the Company’s financial statements.
For the three months ended June 27, 2025 and June 28, 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate attributable to income before income taxes was 22.0% and 21.9%, respectively. For the three months ended June 27, 2025 and June 28, 2024, the Company’s income tax (benefit) expense was $12,128 and $34,531 respectively. The current period effective tax rate is consistent with the same period of the prior year.
For the nine months ended June 27, 2025 and June 28, 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate attributable to income before income taxes was 16.8% and 19.3%, respectively. For the nine months ended June 27, 2025 and June 28, 2024, the Company’s income tax (benefit) expense was $7,935 and $95,606 respectively. The decrease in the current period effective tax rate was driven by the benefit related to solar energy tax credits.
A valuation allowance has been recorded against certain net operating losses in certain foreign jurisdictions. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is determined to be more likely than not that these assets will not be fully realized in the foreseeable future. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon whether the Company can generate future taxable income in the appropriate character and jurisdiction to utilize the assets. The amount of the deferred tax assets considered realizable is subject to adjustment in future periods.
8. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company calculates basic and diluted earnings per common share using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net earnings are allocated to each class of common stock and participating securities as if all of the net earnings for the period had been distributed. The Company’s participating securities consist of share-based payment awards that contain a non-forfeitable right to receive dividends and therefore are considered to participate in undistributed earnings with common stockholders.
Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing the net earnings allocated to common stock by the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net earnings allocated to common stock by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period, as adjusted for the potential dilutive effect of non-participating share-based awards.

10. INVENTORIES, NET
A majority of the Company’s inventories are recorded at the lower of cost (primarily last in, first out, or “LIFO”) or market or net realizable value, as applicable. Approximately 81% of the Company’s inventories were valued at the lower of LIFO cost or market at each of June 27, 2025 and September 30, 2024. Interim LIFO determinations, including those at June 27, 2025, are based on management’s estimates of future inventory levels and costs for the remainder of the current fiscal year.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges totaling $31,766 related to certain long-lived assets related to its HDPE pipe and conduit products, primarily fixed assets and definite-lived intangible assets. An impairment charge of $2,918 was recorded to buildings and related improvements, $8,662 was recorded to construction in progress, $1,548 was recorded to leasehold improvements and $18,638 was recorded to machinery and equipment. Refer to Note 14 “Fair Value Measurements” for further discussion of the Company’s impairment review. No impairment was recorded during the nine months ended June 28, 2024.
As a result of the asset impairment charge, the book basis of the HDPE fixed assets was adjusted to the new fair value. This resulted in the elimination of previously accumulated depreciation of $13,257, as well as an equivalent reduction in gross fixed assets for an equal amount.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges totaling $92,397 primarily related to customer relationships. Refer to Note 14 “Fair Value Measurements” for further discussion of the Company’s impairment review. As a result of the asset impairment charge, the book basis of the HDPE intangible assets was adjusted to the new fair value. This resulted in the elimination of previously accumulated amortization of $65,404, as well as an equivalent reduction in gross intangibles for an equal amount.
Other intangible assets consist of definite-lived trade names, technology, non-compete agreements and backlogs. Included in the table above are the effects of changes in exchange rates, which were not material for the nine months ended June 27, 2025. Amortization expense for the three months ended June 27, 2025 and June 28, 2024 was $10,108 and $13,216, respectively.

The asset-based credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”) has aggregate commitments of $325,000. AII is the borrower under the ABL Credit Facility which is guaranteed by the Company and all other subsidiaries of the Company (other than AII) that are guarantors of the Senior Notes (as defined below).AII’s availability under the ABL Credit Facility was $325,000 as of each of June 27, 2025 and September 30, 2024.
The ABL Credit Facility uses a forward-looking interest rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) consisting of an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% and a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%.
On April 30, 2025, AII, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Fourth Amendment to its existing Credit Agreement, dated as of August 28, 2020, which, among other things, (i) extended the maturity of the facility to the earlier of April 30, 2030 or 91 days prior to the maturity date of the existing senior term loan facility if at least $100,000 of obligations remain outstanding under the existing senior secured term loan facility on such date and (ii) amended certain terms and thresholds with respect to the Company’s borrowing base capacity.
The senior secured term loan facility will mature on May 26, 2028 and borrowings thereunder bearing interest at the rate of forward-looking interest rate based on the “SOFR”, consisting of an applicable margin of 2.00% and a credit spread adjustment of (i) 0.11448% for a one-month interest period, (ii) 0.26161% for a three-month interest period and (iii) 0.42826% for a six-month interest period.
Senior Notes - On May 26, 2021, the Company completed the issuance and sale of the $400,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Senior Notes”) in a private offering.

14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.
The Company periodically uses forward currency contracts to hedge the effects of foreign exchange relating to intercompany balances denominated in a foreign currency. These derivative instruments are not formally designated as a hedge by the Company. Short-term forward currency contracts are recorded in either other current assets or other current liabilities and long-term forward currency contracts are recorded in either other long-term assets or other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value gains and losses are included in other (income) expense, net within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 6, “Other (Income) Expense, net” for further detail.
Cash flows associated with derivative financial instruments are recognized in the operating section of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The fair value of forward currency contracts is calculated by reference to current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles.
The Company had no active forward currency contracts or other derivative instruments as of June 27, 2025 or September 30, 2024.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

In determining the approximate fair value of its long-term debt, the Company used the trading values among financial institutions, and these values fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the ABL Credit Facility approximates fair value due to it being a market-linked variable rate debt.
Impairment Charge related to HDPE Assets
During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $127,733, against the long-lived assets of the HDPE business, primarily the fixed assets, right-of-use assets and definite-lived intangibles. This was the result of the identification of indicators of impairment related to the Company’s HDPE business. The indicators of impairment were triggered by the emergence in the second quarter of competing technology for federal stimulus funding, an acceleration of constraints on public spending, and adverse market-related conditions during the second quarter, which include delays in the deployment of government stimulus funding for
19
nationwide broadband infrastructure investments, in combination with the Company’s forward-looking cash flow projections.
The impairments were measured as the amount by which the carrying values of the assets, $250,966 exceeded their estimated fair value, $123,233, determined using the discounted cash flow method and industry-based data where available. This measurement resulted in the impairment value of $127,733. The assets of the HDPE business are a part of the Electrical segment.
Of the $127,733 impairment value, $92,397 was recorded in definite lived intangible assets, $31,766 was recorded in fixed assets and $3,570 was recorded in right-of-use assets on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company has obligations related to commitments to purchase certain goods. As of June 27, 2025, such obligations were $334,206 for the rest of fiscal year 2025 and $16,927 for fiscal year 2026 and beyond. These amounts represent open purchase orders for materials used in production.
Insurable Liabilities — The Company maintains policies with various insurance companies for its workers’ compensation, product, property, general, auto, and executive liability risks. The insurance policies that the Company maintains have various retention levels and excess coverage limits. The establishment and update of liabilities for unpaid claims, including claims incurred but not reported, is based on management's estimate as a result of the assessment by the Company's claim administrator of each claim and an independent actuarial valuation of the nature and severity of total claims. The Company utilizes a third-party claims administrator to pay claims, track and evaluate actual claims experience, and ensure consistency in the data used in the actuarial valuation.
Legal Contingencies — Historically, a number of lawsuits have been filed against the Company and the Company has also received other claim demand letters alleging that the Company's anti-microbial coated steel sprinkler pipe, which the Company has not manufactured or sold for several years, is incompatible with chlorinated polyvinyl chloride and caused stress cracking in such pipe manufactured by third parties when installed together in the same sprinkler system, which the Company refers to collectively as the “Special Products Claims.” Tyco International Ltd., now Johnson Controls, Inc. (“JCI”), has a contractual obligation to indemnify the Company in respect of all remaining and future claims of incompatibility between the Company's antimicrobial coated steel sprinkler pipe and CPVC pipe used in the same sprinkler system. When Special Products Claims arise, JCI has defended and indemnified the Company as required.
As of the date of this filing, no Special Product Claims are currently pending against the Company as JCI has resolved all claims at their sole cost and expense. Accordingly, at this time, the Company does not expect the outcome of the Special Products Claims proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, and the Company believes that its reserves are adequate for all remaining contingencies for Special Products Claims and other product liabilities.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company was named a defendant in several putative class action lawsuits, consolidated under the caption In re: PVC Pipe Antitrust Litigation (N.D. Ill. 24-cv-07639), seeking injunctive and monetary relief on behalf of both direct and indirect purchasers of PVC water pipe and PVC conduit. The suits generally allege anticompetitive conduct related to the price of PVC pipes sold in the United States between approximately 2021 and the present. Specifically, the complaints allege that the defendant PVC pipe manufacturers improperly shared otherwise confidential information through their contribution of information to, and readership of, a weekly report called “PVC & Pipe Weekly” published by defendant Oil Price Information Service, LLC (“OPIS”), as well as through direct communications with each other. The complaints claim that this conspiracy violated Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, as amended, and certain state laws. All cases are pending in federal court for the Northern District of Illinois. The Company believes there are defenses, both factual and legal, to the allegations in these various proceedings and the Company plans to
20
vigorously defend itself. During the quarter, a proposed settlement was announced between OPIS and plaintiffs obligating OPIS to pay certain monies and to cooperate with plaintiffs. The Court has preliminarily approved the settlement and set August 18, 2025 as the due date for amended complaints. As these proceedings are in the early stages, it is not possible for the Company to predict any outcome or estimate the amount of loss, if any, which could be associated with any adverse decision. While the Company does not believe that any of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, the Company cannot give assurance that the proceedings will not have a material effect on its financial condition.
On February 13, 2025, the Company received from the U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust Division a grand jury subpoena issued by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The subpoena calls for production of documents relating to the pricing of the Company’s PVC pipe and conduit products. The Company is complying, and intends to continue to comply, with its obligations under the subpoena.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company and certain of its current and former officers were named as defendants in two putative securities class action lawsuits under the captions Westchester Putnam Counties Heavy & Highway Laborers Local 60 Benefits Fund v. Atkore Inc. et al (N.D. Ill 1:25-cv-01851) and Coles v. Atkore Inc. et al (N.D. Ill 1:25-cv-02686). The complaints assert claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10(b)(5) promulgated thereunder, based on disclosures about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, which were allegedly false or misleading based on the allegations in the antitrust matters described above. The complaints seek damages in an unspecified amount on behalf of all shareholders who purchased shares during the class period. The Company believes there are defenses, both factual and legal, to the allegations in these proceedings, and the Company plans to vigorously defend the cases.
Also in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, a putative shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed naming the Company as the nominal defendant under the caption Blatzer v. Waltz et al (N.D. Ill 1:25-cv-02833). The Company’s directors and certain of its current and former officers are named as defendants. A second such lawsuit was recently filed under the caption LR Trust v. Waltz et al (N.D. III 1:25-cv-08009). These complaints assert claims for breach of fiduciary duties, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, waste, and violations of federal securities laws, and in LR Trust, an insider trading claim, based primarily on the same alleged conduct underlying the securities class action lawsuits described above, and seeks damages in an unspecified amount and other relief.
While the Company does not believe that any of the securities or derivative proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, the Company cannot give assurance that the proceedings will not have a material effect on its financial condition.
In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time, the Company is subject to a number of disputes, administrative proceedings and other claims arising out of the ordinary conduct of the Company’s business. These matters generally relate to disputes arising out of the use or installation of the Company’s products, product liability litigation, contract disputes, patent infringement accusations, employment matters, personal injury claims and similar matters. On the basis of information currently available to the Company, it does not believe that existing proceedings and claims will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, litigation is unpredictable, and the Company could incur judgments or enter into settlements for current or future claims that could adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
16. GUARANTEES
The Company had no outstanding letters of credit as of June 27, 2025. The Company also had surety bonds primarily related to performance guarantees on supply agreements and construction contracts, and payment of duties and taxes totaling $44,170 as of June 27, 2025.
21
In disposing of assets or businesses, the Company often provides representations, warranties and indemnities to cover various risks including unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability to investigate and remediate environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities and legal fees related to periods prior to disposition. The Company does not have the ability to estimate the potential liability from such indemnities because they relate to unknown conditions. However, the Company has no reason to believe that these uncertainties would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In the normal course of business, the Company is liable for product performance and contract completion. In the opinion of management, such obligations will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
17. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Electrical segment manufactures high quality products used in the construction of electrical power systems including conduit, cable and installation accessories. This segment serves contractors in partnership with the electrical wholesale channel.
The Safety & Infrastructure segment designs and manufactures solutions including metal framing, mechanical pipe, perimeter security and cable management for the protection and reliability of critical infrastructure. These solutions are marketed to contractors, original equipment manufacturers and end users.
Both segments use Adjusted EBITDA as the primary measure of profit and loss. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is income (loss) before income taxes, adjusted to exclude unallocated expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, gains and losses on the divestiture of a business, asset impairment charges, certain legal matters, and other items, such as inventory reserves and adjustments, (gain) loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, insurance recovery related to damages of property, plant and equipment, release of indemnified uncertain tax positions, realized or unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency impacts of intercompany loans and related forward currency derivatives, gain on purchase of business, loss on assets held for sale, restructuring costs and transaction costs.
Intersegment transactions primarily consist of product sales at designated transfer prices on an arm’s-length basis. Gross profit earned and reported within the segment is eliminated in the Company’s consolidated results. Certain manufacturing and distribution expenses are allocated between the segments on a pro rata basis due to the shared nature of activities. Recorded amounts represent a proportional amount of the quantity of product produced for each segment. Certain assets, such as machinery and equipment and facilities, are not allocated to each segment despite serving both segments. These shared assets are reported within the Safety & Infrastructure segment. The Company allocates certain corporate operating expenses that directly benefit our operating segments, such as insurance and information technology, on a basis that reasonably approximates an estimate of the use of these services.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward- looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those factors discussed below and included or referenced elsewhere in this report, particularly in the sections entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.”
Incremental Market Uncertainties
Recent events, including the imposition of tariffs and other changes in international trade policy, central bank interest rate adjustments, inflation, and conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East are creating additional uncertainty in the global economy, generally, and in the markets we operate in. The aforementioned conflicts and other factors have had and will continue to have adverse effects on global supply chains, which may impact some aspects of our business. Furthermore, we are mindful of the effects that adverse weather can have on our domestic supply chain.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The consolidated results of operations for the three months ended June 27, 2025 and June 28, 2024 were as follows:

Net sales decreased by $87.3 million, or 10.6%, to $735.0 million for the three months ended June 27, 2025, compared to $822.4 million for the three months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease in net sales is primarily attributed to decreased average selling prices across the Company’s products of $100.5 million and the impact of divestitures in fiscal 2025 of $4.2 million, partially offset by increased sales volume of $15.4 million.

The increase was primarily due to increased sales volume of $15.3 million, increased freight costs of $4.2 million, and increased inputs costs of $3.4 million partially offset by the impact of divestitures in fiscal 2025 of $4.2 million.
Selling, general and administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million, or 0.2%, to $98.1 million for the three months ended June 27, 2025 compared to $98.0 million for the three months ended June 28, 2024. The increase was primarily due to increased investments in people and software of $3.8 million and other expense categories of $2.0 million partially offset by increased productivity of $5.6 million.
Intangible asset amortization
Intangible asset amortization expense decreased to $10.1 million for the three months ended June 27, 2025 compared to $13.2 million for the three months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease in amortization expense resulted from certain intangibles becoming fully amortized.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net decreased by $1.1 million, or 10.8% to $8.9 million for the three months ended June 27, 2025 compared to $9.9 million for the three months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to decreased interest rates on the Company’s Senior Secured Term Loan Facility.
Other (income) expense, net
The Company recognized $0.2 million of other income for the three months ended June 27, 2025 compared to $0.6 million other expense for the three months ended June 28, 2024. This change is due to a $0.2 million gain on assets held for sale.
Income tax expense
The Company’s income tax rate increased to 22.0% for the three months ended June 27, 2025 compared to 21.9% for the three months ended June 28, 2024. The current period effective tax rate is consistent with the prior year period.
SEGMENT RESULTS
The Electrical segment manufactures high quality products used in the construction of electrical power systems including conduit, cable and installation accessories. This segment serves contractors in partnership with the electrical wholesale channel.
26
The Safety & Infrastructure segment designs and manufactures solutions including metal framing, mechanical pipe, perimeter security and cable management for the protection and reliability of critical infrastructure. These solutions are marketed to contractors, original equipment manufacturers and end users.
Both segments use Adjusted EBITDA as the primary measure of profit and loss. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is income (loss) before income taxes, adjusted to exclude unallocated expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, gains and losses on the divestiture of a business, asset impairment charges, certain legal matters, and other items, such as inventory reserves and adjustments, (gain) loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, insurance recovery related to damages of property, plant and equipment, release of indemnified uncertain tax positions, realized or unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency impacts of intercompany loans and related forward currency derivatives, gain on purchase of business, loss on assets held for sale, restructuring costs and transaction costs. We define segment Adjusted EBITDA margin as segment Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of segment Net sales.

The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to higher freight costs of $17.9 million, higher sales volume of $9.2 million, and decreased benefit of solar energy tax credits of $16.1 million, partially offset by lower input costs of $17.3 million and the impact of divestitures in fiscal 2025 of $6.5 million.
Selling, general and administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $8.5 million, or 2.9%, to $288.6 million for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, compared to $297.1 million for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to increased productivity of $13.6 million, decrease in administrative costs due to a divested business of $5.0 million and decreased costs of other general and administrative expenses of $10.7 million, partially offset by increased spending on business improvement initiatives of $11.5 million, higher stock compensation of $6.7 million and higher costs of $9.3 million spread across a variety of other spend categories.
Intangible asset amortization
Intangible asset amortization expense decreased to $32.0 million for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, compared to $41.9 million for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease in amortization expense resulted from certain intangibles becoming fully amortized.
Asset impairment charges
Asset impairment charges increased to $127.7 million for the nine months ended June 27, 2025 compared to no asset impairment charges for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The asset impairment charge were related to the impairment of HDPE assets as described in Note 14, “Fair Value Measurements”.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net, decreased by $0.7 million, or 2.7%, to $25.3 million for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, compared to $26.1 million for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to decreased interest rates on the Company’s Senior Secured Term Loan Facility.
Other expense, net
Other expense, net increased to $7.4 million for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, compared to $1.3 million for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. This increase is primarily due to the loss on the sale of Northwest Polymers of $6.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
Income tax expense
The Company’s income tax rate decreased to 16.8% for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, compared to 19.3% for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease in the current period effective tax rate was driven by the benefit related to solar energy tax credits.

Net sales decreased by $311.1 million, or 17.4%, to $1,479.3 million for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, compared to $1,790.4 million for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease in net sales is primarily attributed to decreased average selling prices of $303.3 million, the impact of divestitures in fiscal 2025 of $6.2 million and decreased sales volume of $2.0 million.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended June 27, 2025 decreased by $318.1 million, or 54.6%, to $264.6 million from $582.7 million for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 17.9% for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, compared to 32.5% for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin was largely due to the decrease in average selling prices.

The decrease is primarily due to decreased average selling prices of $24.8 million, partially offset by higher volumes of $12.9 million, and
30
decreased economic value of solar energy tax credits to be transferred to certain customers of $8.1 million.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA increased $7.3 million, or 9.7%, to $82.4 million for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, compared to $75.1 million for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 13.3% for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, compared to 12.0% for the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin was largely due to decreases in costs outpacing decreases in average selling price and higher volume.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We believe we have sufficient liquidity to support our ongoing operations and to invest in future growth and create value for stockholders. Our cash and cash equivalents were $331.0 million as of June 27, 2025, of which $93.7 million was held at non-U.S. subsidiaries. Those cash balances at foreign subsidiaries may be subject to withholding or local country taxes if the Company’s intention to permanently reinvest such income were to change and cash was repatriated to the United States.
In general, we require cash to fund working capital investments, acquisitions, capital expenditures, debt repayment, interest payments, taxes, share repurchases and dividend payments. We have access to the ABL Credit Facility to fund operational needs. As of June 27, 2025, there were no outstanding borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility and no letters of credit issued under the ABL Credit Facility. The borrowing base was estimated to be $325.0 million and approximately $325.0 million was available under the ABL Credit Facility as of June 27, 2025. Outstanding letters of credit count as utilization of the commitments under the ABL Credit Facility and reduce the amount available for borrowings.
The agreements governing the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility and the ABL Credit Facility (collectively, the "Credit Facilities") contain covenants that limit or restrict AII’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, repurchase debt, incur liens, sell assets, make certain payments (including dividends), and enter into transactions with affiliates. AII has been in compliance with the covenants under the agreements for all periods presented.
We may from time to time repurchase our debt or take other steps to reduce our debt. These actions may include open market repurchases, negotiated repurchases or opportunistic refinancing of debt. The amount of debt, if any, that may be repurchased or refinanced will depend on market conditions, trading levels of our debt, our cash position, compliance with debt covenants and other considerations.
Our use of cash may fluctuate during the year and from year to year due to differences in demand and changes in economic conditions primarily related to the prices of the commodities we purchase.
Capital expenditures have historically been necessary to expand and update the production capacity and improve the productivity of our manufacturing operations.
Our ongoing liquidity needs are expected to be funded by cash on hand, net cash provided by operating activities and, as required, borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility. We expect that cash provided from operations and available capacity under the ABL Credit Facility will provide sufficient funds to operate our business, make expected capital expenditures and meet our liquidity requirements for at least the next twelve months, including payments of interest and principal on our debt.
There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Limitations on distributions and dividends by subsidiaries
AI and AII are each holding companies, and as such have no independent operations or material assets other than ownership of equity interests in their respective subsidiaries. Each company depends on its respective subsidiaries to distribute funds to it so that it may pay obligations and expenses, including
31
satisfying obligations with respect to indebtedness. The ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions and dividends to us depends on their operating results, cash requirements and financial and general business conditions, as well as restrictions under the laws of our subsidiaries' jurisdictions.
The agreements governing the Credit Facilities significantly restrict the ability of our subsidiaries, including AII, to pay dividends, make loans or otherwise transfer assets from AII and, in turn, to us. Further, AII's subsidiaries are permitted under the terms of the Credit Facilities to incur additional indebtedness that may restrict or prohibit the making of distributions, the payment of dividends or the making of loans by such subsidiaries to AII and, in turn, to us. The Senior Secured Term Loan Facility requires AII to meet a certain consolidated coverage ratio on an incurrence basis in connection with additional indebtedness. The ABL Credit Facility contains limits on additional indebtedness based on various conditions for incurring the additional debt. AII has been in compliance with the covenants under the agreements for all periods presented.

Operating activities
During the nine months ended June 27, 2025, the Company was provided $192.4 million cash flow by operating activities compared to $350.0 million during the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The $157.6 million decrease in cash provided was primarily due to decreased operating income of $442.8 million, partially offset by less working capital used of $72.4 million, the non-cash asset impairment charge of $127.7 million in operating income and the impact of taxes of $69.5 million.
Investing activities
During the nine months ended June 27, 2025, the Company used $69.3 million in investing activities compared to $110.7 million during the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The $41.4 million decrease in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to a decrease of $20.2 million in capital expenditures, proceeds from the sale of properties and equipment of $7.1 million, and proceeds from the sale of Northwest Polymers of $6.7 million. Additionally, in fiscal 2024, the Company paid $6.0 million of purchase price payable related to the fiscal 2022 acquisition of Cascade Poly Pipe & Conduit and Northwest Polymers. No additional activity related to acquisitions occurred during the nine months ended June 27, 2025.
Financing Activities
During the nine months ended June 27, 2025, the Company used $143.1 million in financing activities compared to $324.6 million used during the nine months ended June 28, 2024. The decrease in cash used in financing activities is primarily due to $181.0 million less cash used to repurchase common stock during the nine months ended June 27, 2025 and $13.0 million less in issuance of common stock, net of shares withheld for tax, partially offset by an increase in dividends paid of $9.8 million.

CHANGES IN CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
As described in Note 14 “Fair Value Measurements,” the Company recorded an asset impairment charge of $127,733. Of this charge, $92,397 was recorded against intangible assets, predominantly customer relationship intangibles. As a result of the conditions related to this asset impairment charge, the estimated remaining weighted average useful life for customer relationships intangibles has been reduced from 7 years to 3 years, as of March 28, 2025. As a result of the asset impairment charge, the GAAP basis for the amortization of customer relationship intangibles has been adjusted. The Company will record amortization expense in future periods based upon the new GAAP basis and estimated useful life.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
There have been no material changes to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) under the Exchange Act during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
