INTERFACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “Interface,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” “ours” and “us” refer to Interface, Inc. and its subsidiaries or any of them, unless the context requires otherwise.
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual financial statements. Reference should be made to the Company’s year-end financial statements and notes thereto contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024, as filed with the Commission.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information prepared by the Company and included in this report contains all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The December 29, 2024, consolidated condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
The nine-month periods ended September 28, 2025 and September 29, 2024 both include 39 weeks. The three-month periods ended September 28, 2025 and September 29, 2024 both include 13 weeks.
Risks and Uncertainties
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – Not Yet Adopted
In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-06 - “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other Internal Use Software (Topic 350-40)”. This ASU amends the accounting for internal-use software costs by removing reference to prescriptive and sequential software development stages used to evaluate capitalizable costs. The ASU requires entities to consider whether significant uncertainties associated with development activities have been resolved prior to capitalization of software costs and aligns disclosure requirements with ASC 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment”. The new guidance in ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods, and may be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or using a modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU to its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement Reporting - Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation (Topic 220-40)”. This ASU requires public entities to provide additional footnote disclosures to disaggregate the cost and expense line items presented in the income statement into specific categories including (a) purchases of inventory; (b) employee compensation; (c) depreciation; and (d) intangible asset amortization. The ASU also requires qualitative disclosure of other relevant expense categories not separately disclosed, the total amount of selling expenses, and the definition of selling expenses in annual reporting periods. The new guidance in ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU to its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company computes basic earnings per share (“EPS”) by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including participating securities outstanding, during the period as discussed below. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic EPS that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would have shared in the Company’s earnings.
The Company includes all unvested stock awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, in the number of shares outstanding for basic EPS as these awards are considered participating securities. Unvested share-based awards of restricted stock are paid dividends equally with all other shares of common stock and are considered participating securities. As a result, the Company includes all outstanding restricted stock awards during the period in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS. Any unvested share-based awards considered non-participating securities (restricted share units and performance shares) are included in diluted EPS calculations when the inclusion of these shares would be dilutive. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

(2) The Syndicated Credit Facility also includes a multicurrency revolving loan facility up to $300.0 million as discussed below.
Syndicated Credit Facility
The Company’s Syndicated Credit Facility (the “Facility”) provides to the Company U.S. denominated and multicurrency term loans and provides to the Company and certain of its subsidiaries a multicurrency revolving credit facility. Interest on base rate loans is charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. Interest on secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) based and alternative currency loans is charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin over the applicable SOFR rate or alternative currency rate, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company calculates a commitment fee per annum on the unused portion of the Facility (depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter), which is paid quarterly.
Fees for commercial letters of credit are computed as a percentage of the amount available to be drawn under such letters of credit. Fees for standby letters of credit are charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin of the amount available to be drawn under such standby letters of credit, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. As of September 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, the Company had $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively, in letters of credit outstanding under the Facility.
Under the Facility, the Company is required to make quarterly payments on the term loan borrowings, which are due on the last day of the calendar quarter.
The Company is in compliance with all covenants under the Facility and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future.
12
Senior Notes due 2028
The 5.50 % Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Senior Notes”) bear an interest rate at 5.50 % per annum and mature on December 1, 2028. Interest is paid semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, all of which also guarantee the obligations of the Company under the Facility.
The Company is in compliance with all covenants under the indenture governing the Senior Notes and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future.

NOTE 10 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company determines that an operating segment exists if a component (i) engages in business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs expenses, (ii) has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and (iii) has discrete financial information. Additionally, accounting standards require the utilization of a “management approach” to report the financial results of operating segments, which is based on information used by the CODM to assess performance and make operating and resource allocation decisions. The Company determined that it has two operating segments organized by geographical area – namely (a) Americas (“AMS”) and (b) Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia (collectively “EAAA”). The AMS operating segment includes the United States, Canada and Latin America geographic areas.
Pursuant to the management approach discussed above, the Company’s CODM, our chief executive officer, evaluates performance at the AMS and EAAA operating segment levels and makes operating and resource allocation decisions based on segment adjusted operating income (“AOI”). The CODM uses AOI to evaluate segment operating results compared to expectations. AOI is also used by the CODM to develop variable compensation targets and make capital spend decisions. AOI excludes: nora purchase accounting amortization; restructuring, asset impairment, severance, and other, net, and the impact of a cyber event. Intersegment revenues for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2025, were $28.6 million and $92.4 million, respectively, and intersegment revenues for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2024, were $19.1 million and $60.4 million, respectively. Intersegment revenues are eliminated from net sales presented below since these amounts are not included in the information provided to the CODM.
The Company has determined that it has two reportable segments – AMS and EAAA, as each operating segment meets the quantitative thresholds defined in the accounting guidance.
The following table outlines information by reportable segment including net sales, significant segment expenses, and AOI. The table also includes a reconciliation to income before taxes for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2025 and September 29, 2024.

NOTE 12 – INCOME TAXES
The Company determines its provision for income taxes for interim periods using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate (“AETR”) and records any changes affecting the estimated AETR in the interim period in which the change occurs, including discrete tax items.
During the nine months ended September 28, 2025, the Company recorded a total income tax provision of $18.1 million on pre-tax income of $109.8 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 16.5 %, as compared to a total income tax provision of $21.0 million on pre-tax income of $86.2 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.4 % during the nine months ended September 29, 2024. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 28, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 29, 2024, was primarily due to the remeasurement and adjustment of deferred taxes as discussed below and a favorable mix of geographic earnings.
In July 2025, Germany enacted tax legislation to gradually reduce the corporate income tax rate. The current income tax rate of 15 % is set to decrease by 1% annually beginning in 2028 reaching 10 % by 2032. As a result of this change to tax rates, deferred assets and liabilities were remeasured using the new rates applicable to the periods in which the underlying temporary differences are expected to reverse. The remeasurement of the Company’s German deferred tax positions and other deferred tax adjustments resulted in a favorable deferred income tax benefit of $10.4 million in the quarter ended September 28, 2025.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted H.R. 1, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”). The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The OBBBA did not have a material impact on our estimated annual effective tax rate in 2025. As we continue to analyze the impact of the OBBBA, we expect it to reduce our cash taxes owed in the current year.
On December 20, 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) published Pillar Two Model Rules defining the global minimum tax, which calls for the taxation of large corporations at a minimum rate of 15 %. The OECD has since issued administrative guidance providing transition and safe harbor rules around the implementation of the Pillar Two global minimum tax. Many non-U.S. tax jurisdictions have enacted legislation to adopt the Pillar Two Model Rules beginning in 2024 (including the European Union Member States) or announced plans to enact legislation in future years. For fiscal year 2025, we do not expect these provisions to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. We will continue to closely monitor ongoing developments and evaluate any potential impact on future periods.
In the first nine months of 2025, the Company increased its liability for unrecognized tax benefits by $0.3 million. As of September 28, 2025, the Company had accrued approximately $5.1 million for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s deferred tax asset as of September 28, 2025, reflects a reduction of $2.5 million of these unrecognized tax benefits.
Unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted for changing facts and circumstances, including the progress of tax audits and the closing of statutes of limitations. While it is reasonably possible that some of the unrecognized tax benefits will be recognized within the next 12 months, the Company does not expect the recognition of such amounts will have a material impact on the Company’s financial results.

NOTE 14 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, we are a party to legal proceedings, whether arising in the ordinary course of business or otherwise. Some of these proceedings are summarized below.
PFAS Lawsuit
In April 2025, The Water Works Board of the City of Opelika, Alabama filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court of Lee County, Alabama, The Water Works of the City of Opelika, Alabama, v. 3M Company, et al., Case No. 43-CV-2025-900229.00, against Interface, Inc., our subsidiary InterfaceFLOR, LLC, and numerous other defendants. The lawsuit alleges that the defendants, including Interface, manufactured, sold, used, and discharged per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which have allegedly contaminated the plaintiff's water supply.
The case was removed by defendant 3M Company to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Alabama, Case No. 3:25-cv-411-ECM-CWB. Subsequently, a motion was filed to transfer the case to the Multi-District Litigation (MDL) concerning Aqueous Film-Forming Foams (AFFF) Products Liability Litigation, and the plaintiff filed a motion to remand the case to the Circuit Court of Lee County, Alabama. On October 9, 2025, the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation issued a Transfer Order directing that the case be transferred to the District of South Carolina for inclusion in MDL No. 2873.
The nature of this litigation involves complex scientific, legal and factual issues. Interface believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims brought against it, and intends to defend vigorously against them.
Former CEO Lawsuit
See disclosure under the heading “Lawsuit by Former CEO in Connection with Termination” set forth in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024.
On October 2, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for 11th Circuit issued its opinion affirming the District Court's summary judgment in favor of the Company.

NOTE 15 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure estimated fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under applicable accounting standards are described below:
Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Inputs to the valuation methodology include:
•quoted prices for similar assets in active markets;
•quoted prices for identical or similar assets in inactive markets;
•inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset; and
•inputs that are derived principally or corroborated by observable data by correlation or other.
Level 3 Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following table presents the carrying values and estimated fair values, including the level within the fair value hierarchy, of certain financial instruments:
| September 28, 2025 | December 29, 2024 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Carrying Value | Fair Value (Level 1) | Fair Value (Level 2) | Carrying Value | Fair Value (Level 1) | Fair Value (Level 2) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

(1) Carrying values are presented gross, excluding the impact of unamortized debt issuance costs and including amounts presented as current liabilities on the consolidated condensed balance sheets.
(2) Unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the revolving loan borrowings under the Facility were $0.8 million and $1.1 million as of September 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively, and are recorded as other assets in the consolidated condensed balance sheets. The carrying value of borrowings under the Facility approximates fair value as the Facility bears variable interest rates that are similar to existing market rates. The fair value of borrowings under the Facility is estimated using observable market rates.
(3) Unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the Senior Notes, recorded as a reduction of long-term debt in the consolidated condensed balance sheets, were $2.3 million and $2.8 million as of September 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively. Fair value of the Senior Notes is derived using quoted prices for similar instruments.
The fair value of Company-owned life insurance is measured on a readily determinable cash surrender value on a recurring basis. Assets associated with the Company’s nonqualified savings plans are held in a rabbi trust and consist of investments in mutual funds and insurance contracts. The fair value of the mutual funds is derived from quoted prices in active markets. The fair value of the insurance contracts is based on observable inputs related to the performance measurement funds that shadow the deferral investment allocations made by participants in the nonqualified savings plans.

Executive Overview
During the quarter ended September 28, 2025, we had consolidated net sales of $364.5 million, up 5.9% compared to $344.3 million in the third quarter last year, primarily due to higher customer demand — particularly in the healthcare and corporate office market segments — and higher average sales prices. Consolidated operating income was $53.4 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $42.2 million in the third quarter last year, primarily due to higher sales and higher gross profit margin driven by higher pricing and favorable product mix combined with manufacturing efficiencies that offset higher raw material and tariff-related costs. Consolidated net income for the quarter ended September 28, 2025, was $46.1 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, compared to $28.4 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, in the third quarter last year.
During the first nine months of 2025, we had consolidated net sales of $1,037.5 million, up 5.8% compared to $980.6 million in the first nine months of last year, primarily due to higher customer demand — particularly in the healthcare and education market segments. Consolidated operating income was $128.6 million for the first nine months of 2025, compared to $104.8 million in the same period last year, primarily due to higher sales and higher gross profit margin due to the same factors discussed above for the third quarter 2025. Consolidated net income for the nine months ended September 28, 2025, was $91.7 million, or $1.55 per diluted share, compared to $65.2 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, in the same period last year.
Impact of Macroeconomic Trends
Disruptions in global economic markets due to the impact of government-imposed tariffs and retaliatory tariffs, supply chain challenges and disruptions, significant pressures in the commercial office market globally, inflation, slow market conditions in certain parts of the globe, the Russia-Ukraine war and the conflict in the Middle East, all pose challenges which may adversely affect our future performance. We plan to continue evaluating our cost structure and global manufacturing footprint to identify and activate opportunities to decrease costs and optimize our global cost structure.

For the quarter ended September 28, 2025, consolidated net sales increased $20.3 million (5.9%) versus the comparable period in 2024, primarily due to higher average sales prices (approximately 4%) and higher sales volume (approximately 2%). Currency fluctuations had a positive impact on consolidated net sales of approximately $5.9 million (1.7%) for the third quarter of 2025, compared to the same period last year, primarily from the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. dollar. On a market segment basis, the sales increase was primarily in the healthcare and corporate office market segments, partially offset by lower sales in the retail and education market segments.
For the nine months ended September 28, 2025, consolidated net sales increased $56.8 million (5.8%) versus the comparable period in 2024, primarily due to higher sales volume (approximately 4%) - particularly rubber sales -- and higher average sales prices (approximately 2%). Currency fluctuations had a positive impact on consolidated net sales of approximately $6.0 million (0.6%) for the first nine months of 2025 due to the factors discussed above for the current quarter. On a market segment basis, the sales increase was primarily in the healthcare, education, public buildings, and transportation market segments.

Consolidated Cost of Sales
For the quarter ended September 28, 2025, consolidated cost of sales increased $4.2 million (2.0%) compared to the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher sales volume and tariff costs on rubber and luxury vinyl tile products imported into the U.S. (approximately $2.8 million) partially offset by lower manufacturing costs driven by favorable fixed cost absorption and production efficiencies. Currency translation had a negative impact on consolidated cost of sales in the third quarter of 2025 and increased our costs by approximately $3.5 million (1.6%) compared to the same period last year. As a percentage of net sales, our cost of sales decreased to 60.6% for the third quarter of 2025 versus 62.9% for the third quarter of 2024.
For the nine months ended September 28, 2025, consolidated cost of sales increased $14.9 million (2.4%) versus the comparable period in 2024, primarily due to higher sales and tariff costs as discussed above partially offset by lower manufacturing costs driven by favorable fixed cost absorption and production efficiencies. Currency translation had a negative impact on consolidated cost of sales for the first nine months of 2025 and increased our costs by approximately $3.5 million (0.6%) compared to the same period last year. As a percentage of net sales, our cost of sales decreased to 61.2% for the first nine months of 2025 versus 63.2% for the first nine months of 2024.
Consolidated Gross Profit
For the quarter ended September 28, 2025, gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, was 39.4% compared with 37.1% in the same period last year. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily due to higher average sales prices and favorable product mix (approximately 1%) combined with favorable manufacturing costs (approximately 1%) as discussed above.
For the nine months ended September 28, 2025, gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, was 38.8% compared with 36.8% in the same period last year. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily due to higher average sales prices and favorable product mix (approximately 1%) and lower manufacturing costs (approximately 1%) as discussed above.
Consolidated Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses
For the quarter ended September 28, 2025, consolidated SG&A expenses increased $4.8 million (5.6%) versus the comparable period in 2024. Currency fluctuations had a negative impact on consolidated SG&A expenses of approximately $1.3 million (1.5%) in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year. SG&A expenses were higher for the third quarter of 2025 primarily due to (i) higher variable compensation of $3.4 million as a result of higher commissions on higher sales and (ii) higher bonus costs driven by improved operating results and higher labor costs of approximately $1.3 million. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 24.8% for both the third quarter of 2025 and the third quarter of 2024.
33
For the nine months ended September 28, 2025, consolidated SG&A expenses increased $18.1 million (7.1%) versus the comparable period in 2024. Currency translation had a negative impact on consolidated SG&A expenses of approximately $1.3 million (0.5%) in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period last year. SG&A expenses were higher for the first nine months of 2025 primarily due to (i) higher variable compensation of $6.9 million as a result of higher commissions on higher sales and higher bonus costs driven by improved operating results, (ii) higher employee benefits and labor costs of $5.5 million, and (iii) higher severance costs of $3.5 million due to employee separations. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 26.4% for the first nine months of 2025 versus 26.1% for the first nine months of 2024.
Interest Expense
During the quarter ended September 28, 2025, interest expense was $4.2 million, a decrease of $1.5 million from the comparable period in 2024, primarily due to lower outstanding term loan borrowings under the Facility. For the nine months ended September 28, 2025, interest expense was $13.1 million, a decrease of $5.2 million from the comparable period in 2024, primarily due to lower outstanding term loan borrowings as discussed above.
Provision for Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2025, was 4.8% and 16.5%, respectively, compared to 21.2% and 24.4% for the same periods in 2024. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2025, compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to the remeasurement and adjustment of deferred taxes and a favorable mix of geographic earnings.
See Note 12 entitled “Income Taxes” of Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information, including a discussion of the remeasurement and adjustment of deferred taxes that was recognized in the third quarter of 2025.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
At September 28, 2025, the Company had $187.4 million in cash. At that date, the Company had $5.5 million in term loan borrowings, $4.6 million in revolving loan borrowings, and $0.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under our Facility, and we had $300.0 million of Senior Notes outstanding. As of September 28, 2025, we had additional borrowing capacity of $294.8 million under the Facility. We anticipate that our liquidity is sufficient to meet our obligations for the next 12 months, and we expect to generate sufficient cash to meet our long-term obligations.
The Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, all of which also guarantee the obligations of the Company under its Facility. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries and certain non-material domestic subsidiaries are considered non-guarantors. Net sales for the non-guarantor subsidiaries were approximately $159 million and $442 million for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 28, 2025, respectively, and net sales for the non-guarantor subsidiaries were approximately $149 million and $427 million for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 29, 2024, respectively. Total indebtedness of the non-guarantor subsidiaries was approximately $13 million and $102 million as of September 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively. During the three months ended September 28, 2025, certain outstanding debt owed by the non-guarantor subsidiaries was partially repaid and partially contributed by a guarantor subsidiary to the capital of a non-guarantor subsidiary, reducing total indebtedness of the non-guarantor subsidiaries by approximately $105 million.
Balance Sheet
Accounts receivable, net, were $187.1 million at September 28, 2025, compared to $171.1 million at December 29, 2024. The increase of $16.0 million was primarily due to the impact of higher net sales as a result of increased customer demand in 2025.
Inventories, net, were $286.8 million at September 28, 2025, compared to $260.6 million at December 29, 2024. The increase of $26.2 million was primarily due to finished goods inventory build attributable to higher expected customer demand in the remainder of 2025.
Analysis of Cash Flows
The following table presents a summary of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 28, 2025 and September 29, 2024, respectively:
| Nine Months Ended | |||||||||||
| September 28, 2025 | September 29, 2024 | ||||||||||
| (in thousands) | |||||||||||
| Net cash provided by (used in): | |||||||||||
| Operating activities | $ | 118,596 | $ | 110,387 | |||||||
| Investing activities | (25,477) | (16,694) | |||||||||
| Financing activities | (13,995) | (89,545) | |||||||||
| Effect of exchange rate changes on cash | 9,005 | 955 | |||||||||
| Net change in cash and cash equivalents | 88,129 | 5,103 | |||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period | 99,226 | 110,498 | |||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents at end of period | $ | 187,355 | $ | 115,601 | |||||||
Cash provided by operating activities was $118.6 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025, which represents an increase of $8.2 million from the prior year comparable period, primarily attributable to higher net income for the nine months ended September 28, 2025, partially offset by a higher use of cash related to inventory build as discussed above.
37
Cash used in investing activities was $25.5 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025, which represents an increase of $8.8 million from the prior year comparable period, primarily attributable to a greater capital investment in manufacturing automation and robotics solutions during the first nine months of 2025.
Cash used in financing activities was $14.0 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025, which represents a decrease of $75.6 million from the prior year comparable period. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower outstanding borrowings under the credit facility resulting in lower repayments during the first nine months of 2025 compared to the prior year period. Additionally, the repurchase of common stock during the first nine months of 2025 contributed to the use of cash for the current period.
Share Repurchases
In May 2022, the Company adopted a share repurchase program in which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $100 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. The program has no specific expiration date. During the nine months ended September 28, 2025, the Company repurchased 250,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $20.57 per share pursuant to this program.
Outlook
Based on the strength of our third quarter and year to date 2025 results, we increased our outlook for the full fiscal year of 2025, while acknowledging a challenging and uncertain global macroeconomic environment. We anticipate net sales growth in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025 compared with the same period last year. We also expect to incur tariff costs during the remainder of 2025, and we anticipate offsetting these costs through pricing and productivity initiatives.
Cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and other sources of liquidity are expected to be available and sufficient to meet foreseeable cash requirements. However, the Company’s cash flows from operations can be affected by numerous factors including raw material availability and cost, and demand for our products.
Backlog
As of October 19, 2025, the consolidated backlog of unshipped orders was approximately $244.4 million. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024, backlog was approximately $223.4 million as of February 2, 2025. Disruptions in supply and distribution chains have resulted in delays of construction projects and flooring installations in many regions worldwide, which also have caused, and may continue to cause, fluctuations in our backlog.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The discussion below in this Item 3 is based upon the more detailed discussions of our market risk and related matters included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024, under Part II, Item 7A of that Form 10-K. The discussion here focuses on the nine months ended September 28, 2025, and any material changes from (or other important intervening developments since the time of) the information discussed in that Form 10-K. This discussion should be read in conjunction with that Form 10-K for more detailed and background information.
Sensitivity Analysis
For purposes of specific risk analysis, we use sensitivity analysis to measure the impact that market risk may have on the fair values of our market sensitive instruments. To perform sensitivity analysis, we assess the risk of loss in fair values associated with the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates on market sensitive instruments.
Because the debt outstanding under our Facility has variable interest rates based on an underlying prime lending rate, SOFR, or other benchmark rate, we do not believe changes in interest rates would have any significant impact on the fair value of that debt instrument. Changes in the underlying prime lending rate, SOFR, or other benchmark rate would, however, impact the amount of our interest expense. For a discussion of these hypothetical impacts on our interest expense, please see the discussion in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024.
As of September 28, 2025, based on a hypothetical immediate 100 basis point increase in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, the fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt would be impacted by a net decrease of $6.5 million. Conversely, a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would result in a net increase in the fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt of $0.5 million.
As of September 28, 2025, a 10% decrease or increase in the levels of foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, with all other variables held constant, would result in a respective decrease or increase in the net fair value of our financial instruments of $14.6 million. As the impact of offsetting changes in the fair market value of our net foreign investments is not included in the sensitivity model, these results are not indicative of our actual exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.
39
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”), pursuant to Rule 13a-14(c) under the Act.
No system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the system of controls has operated effectively in all cases. Our disclosure controls and procedures, however, are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.
Based on the evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
