NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1.
Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of Apogee Enterprises, Inc. (we, us, our or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended March 4, 2017. We use the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. All adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of quarterly operating results are reflected herein and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the three-month period ended June 3, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

In connection with preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 3, 2017, we evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date of this filing. On June 12, 2017, we acquired 100 percent of the stock of EFCO Corporation, a privately-held U.S. manufacturer of architectural aluminum window, curtainwall, storefront and entrance systems for commercial construction projects for $192 million in cash, funded through an expansion of our existing committed revolving credit facility, also occurring after the close of the first fiscal quarter (see Note 9). Preliminary purchase accounting will be completed in the second quarter and the acquired company will be included within our Architectural Framing Systems segment. Results of operations for EFCO will be included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

2.
New Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. Under the new standard, an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, our fiscal 2019. We are currently undertaking a process to quantify the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and will provide further analysis and discussion as we progress in this quantification process. At this time:
We are in the process of evaluating the significance of the guidance to our operations and as we proceed, we will finalize our determination of adoption method.
We expect to have business units that will continue to recognize revenue at the point in time when goods are shipped, as that represents when control is transferred, and business units that will continue to recognize revenue over time, following a cost-to-cost percentage of completion method of revenue recognition. Additionally, we expect that one of our business units in the Architectural Framing Systems segment will change from recognizing revenue at a point in time to recognizing revenue over time, to better reflect transfer of control to the customer in line with the new guidance. This business unit represents approximately 10 percent of our total net sales and will follow a similar cost-to-cost percentage of completion method of revenue recognition, consistent with our other business units using percentage of completion.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which provides for comprehensive changes to lease accounting. The new standard requires that a lessee recognize a lease obligation liability and a right to use asset for virtually all leases of property, plant and equipment, subsequently amortized over the lease term. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, our fiscal year 2020, with a modified retrospective transition. We are currently evaluating whether we will early adopt this standard in our fiscal year 2019 to align with the adoption of the new revenue recognition standard discussed above. The adoption of this standard will result in reflecting assets and liabilities for the value of our leased property and equipment on our consolidated balance sheet but we do not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on our consolidated results of operations

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows, and in November 2016, it issued 2016-18, Restricted Cash. Both standards provide guidance for presentation of certain topics within the statement of cash flows, including presenting restricted cash within cash and cash equivalents, and are intended to improve consistency in presentation. The new classification guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, our fiscal year 2019, and is to be applied retrospectively for comparability across all periods. These standards may be adopted early, and we are considering the timing of adoption, but we do not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by requiring impairment charges to be based on the first step in the current two-step impairment test process. The new guidance eliminates the current requirement to calculate a goodwill impairment charge using step 2. The standard

is applicable to impairment tests performed in periods beginning after December 15, 2019, our fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating early adoption of this guidance for our future annual goodwill impairment review process.

Share-Based Compensation
Total share-based compensation expense included in the results of operations was $1.4 million in each of the three-month periods ended June 3, 2017 and May 28, 2016.

We have a wholly-owned insurance subsidiary, Prism Assurance, Ltd. (Prism), which holds municipal bonds. Prism insures a portion of our general liability, workers’ compensation and automobile liability risks using reinsurance agreements to meet statutory requirements. The reinsurance carrier requires Prism to maintain fixed-maturity investments, which are generally high-quality municipal bonds, for the purpose of providing collateral for Prism’s obligations under the reinsurance agreement.

As of June 3, 2017, marketable securities with a fair value of $1.2 million have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months with unrealized losses of $0.1 million. We consider these unrealized losses to be temporary in nature. We intend to hold our investments until the full principal amount can be recovered, and we have the ability to do so based on other sources of liquidity. Gross realized gains and losses were not significant during the first three months of fiscal 2018 or fiscal 2017.

The amortized cost and estimated fair values of municipal bonds at June 3, 2017, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities, as borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without penalty.

Fair Value Measurements

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement: Level 1 (unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities); Level 2 (observable market inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1); and Level 3 (unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data). We do not have any Level 3 assets or liabilities.

Acquisition

On December 14, 2016, we acquired substantially all the assets of Sotawall, Inc. (now operating under the name Sotawall Limited or "Sotawall"). Sotawall specializes in the design, engineering, fabrication, assembly and installation of unitized curtainwall systems for industrial, commercial and institutional buildings, primarily serving the Canadian and northeastern U.S. geographic regions and is included within our Architectural Framing Systems segment. Sotawall's results of operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements and within the Architectural Framing Systems segment since the date of acquisition.

The assets and liabilities of Sotawall were recorded in the consolidated balance sheet as of the acquisition date, at their respective fair values. The purchase price allocation was completed in the current quarter reflecting subsequent working capital adjustments and final intangible asset values as follows:

Debt

Debt, at June 3, 2017, included $20.4 million of industrial revenue bonds that mature in fiscal years 2021 through 2043. The fair value of the industrial revenue bonds approximated carrying value at June 3, 2017, due to the variable interest rates on these instruments. The bonds would be classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy described in Note 7.

As of June 3, 2017, we maintained a $175.0 million committed revolving credit facility that matures in November 2021. Outstanding borrowing was $51.0 million as of June 3, 2017 and $45.0 million as of March 4, 2017. We have two financial covenants that require us to stay below a maximum debt-to-EBITDA ratio and maintain a minimum ratio of interest expense-to-EBITDA. Both ratios are computed quarterly, with EBITDA calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis. At June 3, 2017, we were in compliance with both financial covenants. Additionally, at June 3, 2017, we had a total of $23.5 million of ongoing letters of credit related to industrial revenue bonds and construction contracts that expire in fiscal 2018 and reduce availability of funds under our committed credit facility. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, and in connection with our subsequent acquisition of EFCO, on June 9, 2017, we expanded this committed revolving credit facility to $335.0 million. There were no significant changes to terms associated with this expansion.

We also maintain two Canadian revolving demand facilities totaling $12.0 million Canadian dollars. No borrowings were outstanding under these facilities as of June 3, 2017 or March 4, 2017. Borrowings under these facilities are made available at the sole discretion of the lenders and are payable on demand.

Interest payments were $0.5 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 3, 2017 and May 28, 2016, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. state jurisdictions, Canada, Brazil and other international jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for years prior to fiscal 2014, or U.S. state and local income tax examinations for years prior to fiscal 2011. The Company is not currently under U.S. federal examination for years subsequent to fiscal year 2013, and there is very limited audit activity of the Company’s income tax returns in U.S. state jurisdictions or international jurisdictions.

The total liability for unrecognized tax benefits at June 3, 2017 and March 4, 2017 was approximately $4.8 million and $4.5 million, respectively. Penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in income tax expense. The total liability for unrecognized tax benefits is expected to decrease by approximately $0.5 million during the next 12 months due to lapsing of statutes.

Bond commitments. In the ordinary course of business, predominantly in our Architectural Services and Architectural Framing Systems segments, we are required to provide surety or performance bonds that commit payments to our customers for any non-performance. At June 3, 2017, $66.0 million of our backlog was bonded by performance bonds with a face value of $329.7 million. Performance bonds do not have stated expiration dates, as we are released from the bonds upon completion of the contract. We have never been required to make any payments related to these performance bonds with respect to any of our current portfolio of businesses.

Warranties. We reserve estimated exposures on known claims, as well as on a portion of anticipated claims for product warranty and rework costs based on historical product liability claims as a ratio of sales. Claim costs are deducted from the accrual when paid. Factors that could have an impact on the warranty accrual in any given period include the following: changes in manufacturing quality, shifts in product mix and any significant changes in sales volume. A warranty rollforward follows:

Letters of credit. At June 3, 2017, we had ongoing letters of credit related to construction contracts and certain industrial revenue bonds. The total value of letters of credit under which we were obligated as of June 3, 2017 was approximately $23.5 million, all of which have been issued under our committed revolving credit facility. Availability under this credit facility is reduced by borrowings under the facility and also by letters of credit issued under the facility.

Purchase obligations. Purchase obligations for raw material commitments and capital expenditures totaled $115.5 million as of June 3, 2017.

Litigation. We are a party to various legal proceedings incidental to our normal operating activities. In particular, like others in the construction supply and services industry, our businesses are routinely involved in various disputes and claims arising out of construction projects, sometimes involving significant monetary damages or product replacement. We are also subject to litigation arising out of general liability, employment practices, workers' compensation and automobile claims. Although it is very difficult to accurately predict the outcome of such proceedings, facts currently available indicate that no such claims will result in losses that would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements
This discussion contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “should” and similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All forecasts and projections in this document are “forward-looking statements,” and are based on management’s current expectations or beliefs of the Company’s near-term results, based on current information available pertaining to the Company, including the risk factors noted under Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 4, 2017. From time to time, we may also provide oral and written forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public, such as press releases, presentations to securities analysts or investors, or other communications by the Company. Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this report and in any public statements we make could be materially different from actual results.

Accordingly, we wish to caution investors that any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company are subject to uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements. These uncertainties and other risk factors include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties set forth under Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 4, 2017.

We wish to caution investors that other factors might in the future prove to be important in affecting the Company’s results of operations. New factors emerge from time to time; it is not possible for management to predict all such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or a combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Overview
We are a world leader in certain technologies involving the design and development of value-added glass products and services. Our four reporting segments are: Architectural Glass, Architectural Framing Systems, Architectural Services and Large-Scale Optical (LSO).

The following selected financial data should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended March 4, 2017 and the consolidated financial statements, including the notes to consolidated financial statements, included therein.

Highlights of First Quarter of Fiscal 2018 Compared to First Quarter of Fiscal 2017

Net sales
Consolidated net sales increased 9.9 percent, or $24.4 million, for the first quarter ended June 3, 2017, compared to the same period in the prior year. Sales growth was largely due to the additional sales from Sotawall within the Architectural Framing Systems segment. Sales also grew as a result of volume growth within two other businesses in the Architectural Framing Systems segment and volume growth with U.S. mid-size projects in the Architectural Glass segment. Foreign currency did not have a meaningful impact on sales results in the current-year period or the prior-year period.

Gross profit
Gross profit as a percent of sales was 25.8 percent for the three-months ended June 3, 2017, compared to 26.0 percent for the three-months ended May 28, 2016. Gross profit as a percent of sales declined by 20 basis points primarily due to a decline in sales and reduced volume leverage in the Architectural Services segment in the quarter.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses
SG&A expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 increased $8.0 million over the prior period, and were 17.0 percent of sales in the current three-month period, compared to 15.4 percent of sales in first quarter of last year. The increase in the current year was made up of approximately $4.6 million of additional expense as a result of the inclusion of Sotawall, $1.1 million of a receivable write off due to a customer bankruptcy, $0.7 million of aquisition-related costs and $1.6 million of other items.
Income tax expense
Our effective tax rate in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was 32.9 percent, compared to 33.4 percent in the same period last year, as we have increased the portion of our earnings in international jurisdictions which have lower statutory tax rates than in the U.S.

Net sales increased $4.4 million, or 4.7 percent, for the quarter-ended June 3, 2017 over the same period in the prior year, due to success in gaining share of demand with mid-size projects in the United States. Foreign currency impact on sales was nominal in the current-year period compared to the prior-year period.
Operating margin declined 70 basis points for the three-month period this year compared to the prior year, primarily due to planned costs related to the startup of the oversize glass production line, which began operating during the period.
Given the short lead times in this segment, backlog is not considered a significant metric.

Architectural Framing Systems net sales increased $29.4 million, or 36.2 percent, for the three-month period ended June 3, 2017 over the same period in the prior year, with the net sales of Sotawall, acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, providing approximately 80 percent of the growth and two of the other framing systems businesses contributing the remaining growth.
Operating margin declined 180 basis points from the prior-year period. This reflected an impact of 190 basis points due to amortization of short-lived acquired intangible assets. Beyond these amortization costs, leverage on increased volume was largely offset by higher raw material and manufacturing costs in the quarter, as well as a receivable write off due to a customer bankruptcy.
Backlog in this segment as of June 3, 2017 is approximately $255 million compared to approximately $245 million at year-end.

LSO net sales declined $1.4 million, or 7.1 percent, for the three-month period ended June 3, 2017, due to timing of customer orders and softer custom picture framing end-markets.
Operating margin declined 140 basis points due to lower volume leverage on operating costs. Given the short lead times in this segment, backlog is not considered a significant metric.

Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities was $5.9 million for the first three months of fiscal 2018, increasing $6.4 million over the prior-year period due to timing of working capital payments.

Investing Activities. In the first three months of fiscal 2018 and 2017, net cash used by investing activities was mainly driven by capital expenditures. We estimate fiscal 2018 capital expenditures to be approximately $60 million, as we continue to invest in capabilities and productivity.

We continue to review our portfolio of businesses and their assets in comparison to our internal strategic and performance objectives. As part of this review, we may acquire other businesses, pursue geographic expansion, take actions to manage capacity and/or further invest in, fully divest and/or sell parts of our current businesses.

Financing Activities. As of June 3, 2017, we maintained a $175.0 million committed revolving credit facility that expires in November 2021. As defined within our amended committed revolving credit facility, we are required to comply with two financial covenants. These financial covenants require us to stay below a maximum leverage ratio and to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio. At June 3, 2017, we were in compliance with both financial covenants.

We paid dividends totaling $4.0 million ($0.14 per share) in the first three months of fiscal 2018. We did not repurchase shares under our authorized share repurchase program during the first three months of fiscal 2018 or fiscal 2017. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, in June and July 2017, we purchased 150,000 shares under the program for a total cost of $8.2 million. We have repurchased a total of 3,457,633 shares, at a total cost of $80.5 million, since the inception of this program. We have remaining authority to repurchase 792,367 shares under this program, which has no expiration date.

Other Financing Activities. The following summarizes our significant contractual obligations that impact our liquidity as of June 3, 2017:

From time to time, we acquire the use of certain assets through operating leases, such as warehouses, vehicles, forklifts, office equipment, hardware, software and some manufacturing equipment. Many of these operating leases have termination penalties. However, because the assets are used in the conduct of our business operations, it is unlikely that any significant portion of these operating leases would be terminated prior to the normal expiration of their lease terms. Therefore, we consider the risk related to termination penalties to be minimal.

Purchase obligations in the table above relate to raw material commitments and capital expenditures.

We expect to make contributions of $1.0 million to our defined-benefit pension plans in fiscal 2018, which will equal or exceed our minimum funding requirements.

Table of Contents

As of June 3, 2017, we had reserves of $4.8 million and $1.4 million for unrecognized tax benefits and environmental liabilities, respectively. We expect approximately $0.5 million of the unrecognized tax benefits to lapse during the next 12 months. We are unable to reasonably estimate in which future periods the remaining unrecognized tax benefits and environmental liabilities will ultimately be settled.

At June 3, 2017, we had a total of $23.5 million of ongoing letters of credit related to industrial revenue bonds and construction contracts that expire in fiscal 2018 and reduce availability of funds under our committed credit facility.

In addition to the above standby letters of credit, we are required, in the ordinary course of business, to provide surety or performance bonds that commit payments to our customers for any non-performance by us. At June 3, 2017, $66.0 million of our backlog was bonded by performance bonds with a face value of $329.7 million. Performance bonds do not have stated expiration dates, as we are released from the bonds upon completion of the contract. We have never been required to make any payments related to these performance bonds with respect to any of our current portfolio of businesses.

Due to our ability to generate strong cash from operations and borrowing capability under our committed revolving credit facility, we believe that our sources of liquidity will continue to be adequate to fund our working capital requirements, planned capital expenditures and dividend payments for at least the next 12 months.

Subsequent Events
On June 9, 2017, we expanded our committed revolving credit facility (see Note 9) to $335.0 million. There were no significant changes to terms associated with this expansion.

On June 12, 2017, we acquired 100 percent of the stock of EFCO Corporation, a privately-held U.S. manufacturer of architectural aluminum window, curtainwall, storefront and entrance systems for commercial construction projects for $192.0 million, funded by our committed revolving credit facility. Preliminary purchase accounting will be completed in the second quarter and the acquired company will be included within our Architectural Framing Systems segment. Results of operations for EFCO will be included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Non-GAAP Measures

We analyze non-GAAP measures for adjusted net earnings, adjusted diluted earnings per common share and adjusted operating income. These measures are used by management to evaluate the Company's financial performance on a more consistent basis and improve comparability of results from period to period, because they exclude certain amounts that are not considered part of core operating results. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the reported financial results of the company prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures presented below may differ from similar measures used by other companies.

The following table reconciles net earnings to adjusted net earnings and earnings per diluted common share to adjusted earnings per diluted common share.

(1) Expenses related to amortization of short-lived acquired intangibles and acquisition-related costs are not applicable to the period ended May 28, 2016, and therefore no adjustments have been made.

Outlook
The following statements are based on our current expectations for full-year fiscal 2018 results, inclusive of the recent EFCO acquisition. These statements are forward-looking, and actual results may differ materially.
Revenue growth of approximately 26 to 28 percent over fiscal 2017.
Operating margin of 10.5 percent to 11.0 percent.
Diluted earnings per share of $3.31 to $3.51.
Adjusted operating margin of 11.5 to 12.0 percent and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $3.65 to $3.85(1).
Capital expenditures of approximately $60 million.
(1) Adjusted operating margin and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude the after-tax impact of amortization of short-lived acquired intangible assets associated with the acquired backlog of Sotawall and EFCO of $7 million ($0.24 per diluted share) and acquisition-related costs for Sotawall and EFCO of approximately $2.9 million ($0.10 per diluted share). These two adjustments have a combined approximate 100 basis point impact on operating margin. These non-GAAP measures are used by management to evaluate prospective financial performance on a more consistent basis across periods. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the financial results of the company prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report (the Evaluation Date), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
b)
Changes in internal controls: There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 3, 2017, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.
Legal Proceedings

The Company has been a party to various legal proceedings incidental to its normal operating activities. In particular, like others in the construction supply and services industry, the Company’s construction supply and services businesses are routinely involved in various disputes and claims arising out of construction projects, sometimes involving significant monetary damages or product replacement. The Company is also subject to litigation arising out of employment practices, workers compensation, general liability and automobile claims. Although it is very difficult to accurately predict the outcome of such proceedings, facts currently available indicate that no such claims will result in losses that would have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial condition of the Company.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors

There have been no material changes or additions to our risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 4, 2017.
