NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
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 February 27, 2021. We use the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. All adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of quarterly and year to date operating results are reflected herein and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended November 27, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
COVID-19 update
During fiscal 2021, as a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic, we experienced some delays in commercial construction projects and orders and other disruptions to our business, including various physical distancing and health-related precautions, and we were required to close operations at two facilities in our Large-Scale Optical (LSO) segment for a portion of fiscal 2021 due to governmental orders. We were also impacted by quarantine-related absenteeism among our production workforce, resulting in labor constraints at some of our facilities. Through the first three quarters of fiscal 2022, the negative impacts on our business directly due to the COVID-19 pandemic have moderated. The extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact our businesses in the future will depend on numerous evolving factors including, but not limited to, the emergence of new variants of the coronavirus, such as the Delta and Omicron variants, and the effectiveness of ongoing public health initiatives, which have been boosted by vaccine production and distribution.
Adoption of new accounting standards
At the beginning of fiscal 2022, we adopted the guidance in ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this ASU removed exceptions on intra-period tax allocations and reporting and provided simplification on accounting for franchise taxes, tax basis goodwill and tax law changes. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
At the beginning of fiscal 2022, we adopted the guidance in ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in this ASU apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Equity Investment
During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, an impairment of $3.0 million was recognized within other (expense) income within the consolidated results of operations related to a minority equity investment held by the Company which represents a write-down of the entire investment in the company.

Receivables
Receivables reflected in the financial statements represent the net amount expected to be collected. An allowance for credit losses is established based on expected losses. Expected losses are estimated by reviewing individual accounts, considering aging, financial condition of the debtor, recent payment history, current and forecast economic conditions and other relevant factors. Upon billing, aging of receivables is monitored until collection. An account is considered current when it is within agreed upon payment terms. An account is written off when it is determined that the asset is no longer collectible. Retainage on
construction contracts represents amounts withheld by our customers on long-term projects until the project reaches a level of completion where amounts are released.

Contract assets and liabilities
Contract assets consist of retainage, costs and earnings in excess of billings and other unbilled amounts typically generated when revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract liabilities consist of billings in excess of costs and earnings and other deferred revenue on contracts. Retainage is classified within receivables and deferred revenue is classified within other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
The time period between when performance obligations are complete and when payment is due is not significant. In certain of our businesses that recognize revenue over time, progress billings follow an agreed-upon schedule of values, and retainage is withheld by the customer until the project reaches a level of completion where amounts are released.

Some of our contracts have an expected duration of longer than a year, with performance obligations extending over that time frame. Generally, these contracts are found in our businesses that typically operate with long-term contracts, which recognize revenue over time. As of November 27, 2021, the transaction price associated with unsatisfied performance obligations was approximately $863.1 million. The performance obligations are expected to be satisfied, and the corresponding revenue to be recognized, over the following estimated time periods:

Derivative instruments
We use interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts, commodity swaps and forward purchase contracts to manage risks generally associated with foreign exchange rate, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations. The information that follows explains the various types of derivatives and financial instruments we use, how such instruments are accounted for, and how such instruments impact our financial position and performance.
In fiscal 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap to hedge exposure to variability in cash flows from interest payments on our floating-rate revolving credit facility and term loan. As of November 27, 2021, the interest rate swap contract had a notional value of $30.0 million.
We periodically enter into forward purchase contracts and/or fixed/floating swaps to manage the risk associated with fluctuations in aluminum prices and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates (primarily related to the Canadian dollar). These contracts generally have an original maturity date of less than one year. As of November 27, 2021, we held foreign exchange forward contracts and aluminum fixed/floating swaps with U.S. dollar notional values of $16.5 million and $8.0 million, respectively.
These derivative instruments are recorded within our consolidated balance sheets within other current assets and liabilities. Gains or losses associated with these instruments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
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 financial assets or liabilities.

Money market funds and commercial paper
Fair value of money market funds was determined based on quoted prices for identical assets in active markets. Commercial paper was measured at fair value using inputs based on quoted prices for similar securities in active markets. These assets are included within cash and cash equivalents on our consolidated balance sheets.
Municipal and corporate bonds
Municipal and corporate bonds were measured at fair value based on market prices from recent trades of similar securities and are classified within our consolidated balance sheets as other current or other non-current assets based on maturity date.
Cash surrender value of life insurance and deferred compensation
Contracts insuring the lives of certain employees who are eligible to participate in certain non-qualified pension and deferred compensation plans are held in trust. Cash surrender value of the contracts is based on performance measurement funds that shadow the deferral investment allocations made by participants in certain deferred compensation plans. Changes in cash surrender value are recorded in other expense. The deferred compensation liability balances are valued based on amounts allocated by participants to the underlying performance measurement funds.
Derivative instruments
The interest rate swap is measured at fair value using other observable market inputs, based off of benchmark interest rates. Forward foreign exchange and fixed/floating aluminum contracts are measured at fair value using other observable market inputs, such as quotations on forward foreign exchange points, foreign currency exchange rates, and forward purchase aluminum prices. Derivative positions are primarily valued using standard calculations and models that use as their basis readily observable market parameters. Industry standard data providers are our primary source for forward and spot rate information for both interest and currency rates and aluminum prices.
Nonrecurring fair value measurements
We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a nonrecurring basis including goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment and right-of-use lease assets. These assets were initially measured and recognized at amounts equal to the fair value determined as of the date of acquisition or purchase subject to changes in value only for foreign currency translation. Periodically, these assets are tested for impairment, by comparing their respective carrying values to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit or asset group in which they reside. In the event any of these assets were to become impaired, we would recognize an impairment expense equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the reporting unit, impaired asset or asset group exceeds its estimated fair value. Fair value measurements of reporting units are estimated using an income approach involving discounted cash flow models that contain certain Level 3 inputs requiring significant management judgment, including projections of economic conditions, customer demand and changes in competition, revenue growth rates, gross profit margins, operating margins, capital expenditures, working capital requirements, terminal growth rates and discount rates. Fair value measurements of the reporting units associated with our goodwill balances and our indefinite-lived intangible assets are estimated at least annually in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year for purposes of impairment testing if a quantitative analysis is performed.
See Note 13 for additional information on the impairment charges recorded to fixed assets and right-of-use lease assets during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2022.
5.Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the value of net tangible and identified intangible assets of acquired businesses. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually as of the first day of our fiscal fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable.
Based on the impairment analysis performed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, estimated fair value was in excess of carrying value at six of our eight reporting units. However, estimated fair value did not exceed carrying value for two reporting units within the Architectural Framing Systems segment, EFCO and Sotawall. As a result, as of February 27, 2021, we incurred goodwill impairment expense of $46.7 million and $17.1 million in our EFCO and Sotawall reporting units, respectively. The goodwill impairment expense recorded during the year ended February 27, 2021, as reflected in the table below, represents the total accumulated goodwill impairment expenses recorded.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we combined certain reporting units to form two reporting units, following certain structural and leadership changes at the Company, specifically within the Architectural Framing Systems segment. Within this
segment, as a result of integration efforts that are ongoing, leadership over our Wausau, EFCO and Sotawall reporting units have been combined to form the Window and Wall Systems reporting unit, and our Linetec and Tubelite reporting units have been combined to form the Storefront and Finishing Solutions reporting unit. With these organizational changes, Architectural Framing Systems segment management regularly reviews and evaluates the results of the Window and Wall Systems and Storefront and Finishing Solutions reporting units. Additionally, functional leaders in areas such as operations, sales, marketing and general and administrative areas are responsible for allocating resources and reviewing results of the Window and Wall Systems and Storefront and Finishing Solutions reporting units. The goodwill of the five individual pre-integration reporting units was aggregated to the respective combined reporting units. We evaluated goodwill on a qualitative basis prior to and subsequent to this change and concluded no adjustment to the carrying value of goodwill was necessary as a result of this change. In addition, for all reporting units, no qualitative indicators of impairment were identified during the third quarter, and therefore, no interim quantitative goodwill impairment evaluation was performed.
The carrying amount of goodwill attributable to each reporting segment was:

(1) During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we recorded a $6.3 million increase to goodwill and corresponding increase to deferred tax liabilities to correct an immaterial error related to prior periods. The error was not material to any previously reported annual or interim consolidated financial statements.

Other intangible assets
We have intangible assets for certain acquired trade names and trademarks which are determined to have indefinite useful lives. We test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually at the same measurement date as goodwill, the first day of our fiscal fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Based on our analysis, the fair value of each of our trade names and trademarks exceeded carrying amount, except for the EFCO tradename, within our Architectural Framing Systems segment. The fair value determined for the EFCO tradename was less than its carrying value by $6.3 million; this amount was recognized as impairment expense in the fourth quarter ended February 27, 2021, as reflected in the table below.

6.Debt
As of November 27, 2021, we had a committed revolving credit facility with maximum borrowings of up to $235 million with a maturity of June 2024. There were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility as of November 27, 2021 and February 27, 2021. At November 27, 2021 and February 27, 2021, we also had a $150 million term loan with a maturity date of June 2024.
Our revolving credit facility and term loan contain two financial covenants that require us to stay below a maximum debt-to-EBITDA ratio and maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA-to-interest expense. Both ratios are computed quarterly, with EBITDA calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis. At November 27, 2021, we were in compliance with both financial covenants. Additionally, at November 27, 2021, we had a total of $16.4 million of ongoing letters of credit related to industrial revenue bonds, construction contracts and insurance collateral that expire in fiscal years 2023 to 2032 and reduce borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility.
At November 27, 2021, debt included $13.0 million of industrial revenue bonds that mature in fiscal years 2023 through 2043. In July 2021, two $1.0 million industrial revenue bonds matured and were repaid. The fair value of all industrial revenue bonds approximated carrying value at November 27, 2021, due to the variable interest rates on these instruments. Our credit facility, term loan and industrial revenue bonds would be classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy described in Note 4.
We also maintain two Canadian committed, revolving credit facilities totaling $25.0 million (USD). As of November 27, 2021 and February 27, 2021, there were no borrowings outstanding under the facilities.
Interest payments were $2.7 million and $3.7 million for the nine months ended November 27, 2021 and November 28, 2020, respectively.
7. Leases
We lease certain of the buildings and equipment used in our operations. We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. Currently, all of our lease arrangements are classified as operating leases. We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance in adopting ASC 842, which among other things, allowed us to carry forward our historical lease classification. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our leases have remaining lease terms of one to ten years, some of which include renewal options that can extend the lease for up to an additional ten years at our sole discretion. We have made an accounting policy election not to record leases with an original term of 12 months or less on our consolidated balance sheet; such leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
In determining lease asset value, we consider fixed or variable payment terms, prepayments, incentives, and options to extend, terminate or purchase. Renewal, termination or purchase options affect the lease term used for determining lease asset value only if the option is reasonably certain to be exercised. We use a discount rate for each lease based upon an estimated incremental borrowing rate over a similar term. We have elected the practical expedient to account for lease and non lease components (e.g., common-area maintenance costs) as a single lease component. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. We are not a lessor in any transactions.
The components of lease expense were as follows:

8.Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
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 November 27, 2021, $1.2 billion of these types of bonds were outstanding, of which $448.0 million is in our backlog. These bonds do not have stated expiration dates. We have never been required to make payments under surety or performance bonds with respect to our existing businesses.
Warranty and project-related contingencies
We reserve estimated exposures on known claims, as well as on a portion of anticipated claims, for product warranty and rework cost, 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, changes in product mix and any significant changes in sales volume. A warranty rollforward follows:

Additionally, we are subject to project management and installation-related contingencies as a result of our fixed-price material supply and installation service contracts, primarily in our Architectural Services segment and certain of our Architectural
Framing Systems businesses. We manage the risk of these exposures through contract negotiations, proactive project management and insurance coverages. The liability for these types of project-related contingencies was $0.9 million and $4.6 million as of November 27, 2021 and February 27, 2021, respectively.
Letters of credit
At November 27, 2021, we had $16.4 million of ongoing letters of credit, all of which have been issued under our committed revolving credit facility, as discussed in Note 6. We also have a $6.9 million letter of credit which has been issued outside our committed revolving credit facility, with no impact on our borrowing capacity and debt covenants.
Purchase obligations
Purchase obligations for raw material commitments and capital expenditures totaled $239.5 million as of November 27, 2021.
New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) transactions
We have three outstanding NMTC arrangements which help to support operational expansion. Proceeds received from investors on these transactions are included within other current and other non-current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. The NMTC arrangements are subject to 100 percent tax credit recapture for a period of seven years from the date of each respective transaction. Upon the termination of each arrangement, these proceeds will be recognized in earnings in exchange for the transfer of tax credits. The direct and incremental costs incurred in structuring these arrangements have been deferred and are included in other non-current assets in our consolidated balance sheets. These costs will be recognized in conjunction with the recognition of the related proceeds on each arrangement. During the construction phase for each project, we are required to hold cash dedicated to fund each capital project which is classified as restricted cash in our consolidated balance sheets. Variable-interest entities, which have been included within our consolidated financial statements, have been created as a result of the structure of these transactions, as investors in the programs do not have a material interest in their underlying economics.

Litigation
The Company is 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 is routinely involved in various disputes and claims arising out of construction projects, sometimes involving significant monetary damages or product replacement. We have in the past and are currently subject to product liability and warranty claims, including certain legal claims related to a commercial sealant product formerly incorporated into our products. The Company is also subject to litigation arising out of areas such as employment practices, workers compensation and general liability matters. Although it is very difficult to accurately predict the outcome of any such proceedings, facts currently available indicate that no matters will result in losses that would have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial condition of the Company.
9.Share-Based Compensation
Total share-based compensation expense included in the results of operations was $4.8 million for the nine-month period ended November 27, 2021 and $6.2 million for the nine-month period ended November 28, 2020.

For the nine-months ended November 27, 2021 and November 28, 2020, cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options were $4.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of securities exercised (the amount by which the stock price on the date of exercise exceeded the stock price of the award on the date of grant) was $2.3 million and $1.8 million, for the nine-months ended November 27, 2021 and November 28, 2020, respectively.
Executive Compensation Program
In fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors implemented an executive compensation program for certain key employees. In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we issued performance shares in the form of nonvested share unit awards, which give the recipient the right to receive shares earned at the vesting date. The number of share units issued at grant is equal to the target number of performance shares and allows for the right to receive an additional number of shares dependent on achieving a defined performance goal of return on invested capital and being employed at the end of the performance period.
Nonvested share awards and units
Nonvested share activity, including performance share units, for the current nine-month period is summarized as follows:

(1) Architectural Glass operating loss amounts for the three- and nine-month periods ended November 27, 2021 include $3.5 million and $20.9 million of restructuring related costs, respectively.

(2) LSO operating income amounts for the three- and nine-month periods ended November 28, 2020 include a $19.3 million gain on the sale-lease back of a building.

Due to the varying combinations and integration of individual window, storefront and curtainwall systems, it is impractical to report product revenues generated by class of product, beyond the segment revenues currently reported.
13. Restructuring
On August 11, 2021, we announced plans to realign and simplify our business structure. For the three- and nine-month periods ended November 27, 2021, we incurred $3.4 million and $24.2 million, respectively, of pre-tax costs associated with the execution of these plans, of which $3.6 million and $22.1 million are included within cost of sales and $(0.2) million and $2.1 million are included within selling, general and administrative expenses within our consolidated statements of operations. These costs primarily related to asset impairment charges due to the closure of two facilities within the Architectural Glass segment, in Dallas, Texas and Statesboro, Georgia, which closures were made in order to concentrate this segment on premium, high-performance products. Additionally, employee termination costs were incurred related to these facility closures, realignment of the Architectural Framing Systems segment, and within the Corporate office. We expect future pre-tax costs associated with the ongoing execution of these plans to be approximately $2 to $3 million, which we expect will be incurred during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2022. At the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022, $9.3 million of assets were classified as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheets related to the building and related equipment of our Statesboro, Georgia facility within the Architectural Glass segment.

14. Subsequent Events
We have evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date of this filing. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, we purchased 484,646 shares of stock under our authorized share repurchase program, at a total cost of $22.3 million.
In December 2021, we sold all of the property and assets at the Architectural Glass segment’s Statesboro, Georgia manufacturing facility for $29.1 million. The carrying value of the building and related equipment was $9.3 million. We will recognize a gain on this sale of approximately $19.0 million, net of associated transaction costs, which will be included as a reduction of cost of sales within our consolidated statements of operations for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.
