3. INCOME TAXES
The Company and its U. S. subsidiaries file a U.S. federal consolidated income tax return. The Internal Revenue Service has concluded its examination of the Company’s income tax returns for the years prior to 2003. The U.S. federal statute of limitations remains open for the 2003 tax year and beyond. Foreign and U.S. state jurisdictions have statutes of limitations generally ranging from 4 to 6 years. Several of our tax returns are currently under examination in various U.S. state jurisdictions.
We adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48) effective January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized a $750,000 increase in tax liabilities, with a corresponding reduction in retained earnings. The recognition was caused by uncertain tax positions of $408,000 and the provision for related interest and penalties of $342,000.
During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company incurred an additional $25,000 to account for uncertain tax positions. The Company does not anticipate significant increases or decreases in our uncertain tax positions within the next twelve months.
The Company recognizes penalties and interest relating to uncertain tax positions in the provision for income taxes.
4. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION
On May 19, 2005, the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Equity Incentive Plan”) was approved by the Company’s stockholders. The 2005 Equity Incentive Plan is an incentive compensation plan that allows the Company to grant equity-based incentive compensation awards to eligible participants to provide them an additional incentive to promote the business of the Company, to increase their proprietary interest in the success of the Company and to encourage them to remain in the Company’s employ. Awards under the plan may be in the form of options, restricted shares, restricted units, performance shares, performance units and rights. The 2005 Equity Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of up to 2,250,000 shares of common stock. Of the total number of shares of common stock issuable under the plan, the aggregate number of shares that may be issued in connection with grants of restricted stock or restricted units cannot exceed 1,350,000 shares, and the aggregate number of shares which may be issued in connection with grants of incentive stock options and rights cannot exceed 900,000 shares. Vesting terms and award life are governed by the award document.
The Management Stock Purchase Plan (“MSPP”) was approved by the shareholders in conjunction with the adoption of the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan. The MSPP provides participants the ability to defer up to 50% of their annual bonus under the Management Incentive Compensation Plan. The deferral is converted to restricted stock units and credited to an account along with a match equal to the deferral amount. The account is converted to cash at the current value of the Company’s stock and payable to the participants upon their termination from employment with the Company. The matching portion is payable only if the participant has reached their sixtieth birthday. If a participant terminates prior to age 60, the match is forfeited. Upon termination, the account is converted to a cash account that accrues interest at 2% over the then current 10 year U. S. Treasury note. The account is then paid out in five equal annual cash installments.
During the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Company issued 164,125 restricted stock units, and granted 18,625 non-qualified stock options. There were no issuances of restricted stock units or options during the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Table of Contents

The fair value of restricted stock units held in the MSPP equals the market value of our common stock on the last day of the period. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, 55,757 restricted stock units were credited to participant accounts. At March 31, 2007, the market value of our common stock was $22.62 per share.
5. INVENTORIES

Total inventories
  $ 248,797     $ 254,991  
 
           
6. NET INCOME PER SHARE
Basic income per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, as well as dilutive potential common shares which, in the Company’s case, comprise shares issuable under the stock option and restricted stock plans. The treasury stock method is used to calculate dilutive shares, which reduces the gross number of dilutive shares by the number of shares purchasable from the proceeds of the options assumed to be exercised.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share as of March 31:

7. ACQUISITIONS
On June 8, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Home Impressions, Inc. (“Home Impressions”). Home Impressions is based in Hickory, North Carolina and markets and distributes mailboxes and postal accessories. The acquisition of Home Impressions served to strengthen the Company’s position in the mailbox and storage systems markets, and is expected to provide marketing, manufacturing and distribution synergies with our existing operations. The results of Home Impressions (included in the Company’s Building Products segment) have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial results from the date of acquisition. The acquisition of Home Impressions is not considered significant to the Company’s consolidated results of operations.

Table of Contents

As part of the purchase agreement with the former owners of Home Impressions, the Company is required to pay additional consideration through May 2009 based upon the operating results of Home Impressions. The Company paid $57,000 of such additional consideration during the three months ended March 31, 2007. These payments were recorded as additional goodwill.
On June 30, 2006, the Company acquired certain assets of Steel City Hardware, LLC (“Steel City”). The assets the Company acquired from Steel City are used to manufacture mailboxes and postal accessories. The acquisition of the assets of Steel City served to vertically integrate Home Impression’s major domestic supplier and expanded our manufacturing competency in the storage market. The results of Steel City (included in the Company’s Building Products segment) are included in the Company’s consolidated financial results from the date of acquisition. The acquisition of Steel City is not considered significant to the Company’s consolidated results of operations.
The aggregate initial consideration was approximately $4,879,000, in cash and acquisition costs. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired based upon a preliminary valuation of respective fair market values. A final valuation is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2007. The excess consideration over fair value was recorded as goodwill and aggregated approximately $2,566,000, which is deductible for tax purposes. The allocation of purchase consideration to the assets and liabilities assumed is as follows (in thousands):
         
Working capital
  $ 1,736  
Property, plant and equipment
    577

On November 1, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of The Expanded Metal Company Limited and Sorst Streckmetall GmbH (“EMC”). EMC has locations in England, Germany and Poland and manufactures, markets and distributes a diverse line of products used in the commercial and industrial sectors of the building products market. The acquisition of EMC is expected to strengthen the Company’s position in the expanded metal market and provide expanded market exposure for both EMC products and certain products currently manufactured by the Company. The results of operations of EMC (included in the Company’s Building Products segment) have been included in the Company’s consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition.
The aggregate purchase consideration for the acquisition of EMC was approximately $44,629,000 in cash and acquisition costs. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon a preliminary valuation of respective fair values. The identifiable intangible assets consisted of a trademark with a value of $4,771,000 (indefinite useful life) and customer relationships with a value of $7,443,000 (7 year estimated useful life). A final valuation is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2007. The excess consideration over fair value was recorded as goodwill and aggregated approximately $20,244,000, none of which is deductible for tax purposes. The allocation of purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows (in thousands):

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
Overview
The condensed consolidated financial statements present the financial condition of the Company as of March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, and the condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Company for three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.
We are a leading manufacturer, processor and distributor of residential and commercial building products and processed metal products for industrial applications. We serve over 10,000 customers in a variety of industries in all 50 states, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Asia, and Central and South America. We operate 91 facilities in 35 states, Canada, England, Germany, Poland and China.
Segments
We operate in two reportable segments—Building Products and Processed Metal Products.
    Building Products. We process sheet steel to produce over 5,000 building and construction products, including mailboxes, ventilation products, structural connectors, bar grating, metal lath and expanded metal. We sell these products primarily to major retail home centers, such as The Home Depot, Lowe’s, Menards, metal service centers, wholesalers and contractor suppliers.
 
    Processed Metal Products. We produce a wide variety of cold-rolled strip steel products, coated sheet steel products and powdered metal products. In this segment, we primarily serve the automotive industry’s leaders, such as General Motors, Ford, DaimlerChrysler and Honda, and other major manufacturers such as 3M Company, as well as the automotive supply, commercial and residential metal building, power and hand tool and other industries.

Results of Operations
Consolidated
Net sales decreased by approximately $5.1 million, or 1.6% to $317.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, from net sales of $322.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. Net sales excluding the effect of the acquisition of EMC (acquired November 1, 2006) and Dramex (acquired March 9, 2007) decreased $25.0 million, or 7.8%. The decrease in net sales was the result of the decreased volumes due to the slowdown in the residential housing and domestic automotive markets.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 16.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, from 19.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The decrease in gross profit percentage was the result of the reduction in volume, product mix, as certain products that are used in the new build residential market have higher profit margin, and higher material costs as compared to the same period in the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $2.6 million, or 7.0%, to $35.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, from $37.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The dollar decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was due primarily to lower bonus expense, which decreased $2.5 million due to the decline in operating profits from the prior year period. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 11.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, from 11.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 as a result of the reduction noted above.
As a result of the above, income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 decreased to 5.2% from 7.9% for the prior year’s comparable period.
Interest expense increased by approximately $0.4 million to $7.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, from $6.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The increase in interest expense during the current quarter was due primarily to higher average interest rates compared to that of the prior year’s first quarter.
As a result of the above, income from continuing operations before taxes decreased by approximately $9.7 million, or 50.4%, to $9.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, from income from continuing operations before taxes of $19.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006.
Income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 approximated $3.4 million and were based on a 35.5% effective tax rate compared with an effective tax rate of 39.2% for the same period in 2006. The tax rate for 2007 reflects a benefit from a change in statute in England, while the 2006 rate reflects increased expense due to certain discrete items.
The following provides further information by segment:
Building Products
Net sales decreased by approximately $7.5 million, or 3.5%, to $207.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, from net sales of $214.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. Excluding the $19.9 million provided by EMC and Dramex, the decrease in net sales was $27.4 million, or 12.8% from the same period in the prior year, a result of volume decreases.
Income from operations as a percentage of net sales decreased to 9.0% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 from 14.6% for the prior year’s comparable period. The decrease in operating margin percentage was due to volume reductions, product mix, and higher material costs, partially offset by lower bonus expense.

Table of Contents

Processed Metal Products
Net sales increased by approximately $2.6 million, or 2.4%, to $110.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, from net sales of $107.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The increase in net sales was primarily a function of higher selling prices in our strip steel business and our powdered metal products business, a result of increased selling price due to the increase in the market price of steel and copper, partially offset by volume reduction in our service center business.
Income from operations as a percentage of net sales decreased to 4.0% of net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 from 5.4% for the prior year’s comparable period. The decrease in operating margin percentage was due primarily to higher material costs in our service center and powered metal products business, and costs associated with the consolidation of our Buffalo, New York manufacturing facilities.
Outlook
The Company expects results from the quarter ended June 30, 2007 will be lower than those realized during the quarter ended June 30, 2006. While the housing and domestic automotive markets have caused a reduction in our results, we expect to see sequential improvement during the upcoming quarter. The second quarter is historically one of the seasonally strongest periods of the Company’s fiscal cycle. The Company believes it is positioned to benefit from many of its cost reduction programs and internal growth initiatives, as well as continuing operational improvements.
In 2007 the Company will realize a full year’s worth of sales and earnings from the 2006 acquisition of EMC, Home Impressions, Steel City, and sales and earnings from the March 2007 acquisition of Dramex. In addition, the Company is continuously evaluating numerous acquisition opportunities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s principal capital requirements are to fund its operations, including working capital, the purchase and funding of improvements to its facilities, machinery and equipment and to fund acquisitions.
The Company’s shareholders’ equity increased by approximately $3.9 million or 0.7%, to $554.1 million, at March 31, 2007. This increase in shareholder’s equity was primarily due to net income of $6.2 million, the effect of currency exchange rates of $1.1 million, and equity compensation of $0.5 million, partially offset by the declaration of approximately $3.0 million in shareholder dividends and the cumulative effect of the adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 48.
During the first quarter of 2007, the Company’s working capital increased by approximately $12.4 million, or 3.6%, to approximately $343.8 million. This increase in working capital was primarily the result of increases in accounts receivable and cash of $27.9 million and $7.2 million, respectively, partially offset by a $6.2 million decrease in inventories and a $20.7 million increase in accounts payable. The increase in receivables is the result of the acquisition of Dramex and increased sales activities, and the increase in cash is the result of timing of the Noll Manufacturing, NorWesCo and M&N Plastics acquisition in April 2007. The decrease in inventories is the result of our focus on inventory reduction, while the increase in payables is due to both the timing of purchases of raw materials and the Dramex acquisition.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was approximately $16.7 million and was primarily the result of net income from continuing operations of $6.2 million combined with depreciation and amortization of $7.5 million, decreases in inventories, and accounts payable of $10.6 million and $17.8 million, respectively, partially offset by increases in accounts receivable of $23.3 million.
The cash on hand at the beginning of the period, cash generated by operations and net borrowings of $19.4 million was used to fund the $22.5 million acquisition of Dramex, capital expenditures of $5.4 million and pay cash dividends of $1.5 million.

Senior credit facility and senior subordinated notes
The Company’s credit agreement provides a revolving credit facility, which expires in December 2010, and a term loan, which is due in December 2012. The revolving credit facility of up to $300.0 million and the term loan of $230.0 million are secured with the Company’s accounts receivable, inventories and personal property and equipment. At March 31, 2007, the Company had used approximately $94.9 million of the revolving credit facility and had letters of credit outstanding of $17.3 million, resulting in $187.8 million in availability. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility carry interest at LIBOR plus a fixed rate. The weighted average interest rate of these borrowings was 6.29% at March 31, 2007. At March 31, 2007, the term loan balance was $123.3 million. Borrowings under the term loan carry interest at LIBOR plus a fixed rate. The rate in effect on March 31, 2007 was 7.13%.
The Company’s $204.0 million of 8% senior subordinated notes were issued in December 2005 at a discount to yield 8.25% Provisions of the 8% notes include, without limitation, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, distributions from restricted subsidiaries, asset sales, affiliate transactions, dividends and other restricted payments. Prior to December 1, 2008, up to 35% of the 8% notes are redeemable at the option of the Company from the proceeds of an equity offering at a premium of 108% of the face value, plus accrued and unpaid interest. After December 1, 2010 the notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at the redemption price (as defined in the notes agreement), which declines annually from 104% to 100% on and after December 1, 2013. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the indenture for such notes), each holder of the 8% Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of such holder’s 8% Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof. The 8% Notes are guaranteed by certain existing and future domestic subsidiaries and are not subject to any sinking fund requirements.
The Company’s various loan agreements, which do not require compensating balances, contain provisions that limit additional borrowings and require maintenance of minimum net worth and financial ratios. At March 31, 2007 the Company was in compliance with terms and provisions of all of its financing agreements.
For the second quarter and remainder of 2007, the Company is focused on maximizing positive cash flow, working capital management, and debt reduction. As of March 31, 2007, the Company believes that availability of funds under its existing credit facility together with the cash generated from operations will be sufficient to provide the Company with the liquidity and capital resources necessary to support its principal capital requirements, including operating activities, capital expenditures, and dividends.
The Company regularly considers various strategic business opportunities including acquisitions. The Company evaluates such potential acquisitions on the basis of their ability to enhance the Company’s existing products, operations, or capabilities, as well as provide access to new products, markets and customers. Although no assurances can be given that any acquisition will be consummated, the Company may finance such acquisitions through a number of sources including internally available cash resources, new debt financing, the issuance of equity securities or any combination of the above.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
Our contractual obligations and commercial commitments have not changed materially, including the impact from FIN 48, from the disclosures in our 2006 Form 10-K.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make decisions based upon estimates, assumptions, and factors it considers relevant to the circumstances. Such decisions include the selection of applicable principles and the use of judgment in their application, the results of which could differ from those anticipated.
A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2006, as filed on Form 10-K.
There have been no changes in critical accounting policies in the current year from those described in our 2006 Form 10-K.
Related Party Transactions
In connection with the acquisition of Construction Metals in April 2004, the Company entered into two unsecured subordinated notes payable, each in the amount of $8.75 million (aggregate total of $17.5 million). These notes, which were satisfied during the second quarter of 2006, were payable to the former owners of Construction Metals and were considered related party in nature due to the former owners’ employment relationship with the Company. These notes were payable in equal annual principal installments of approximately $2.9 million per note on April 1 with the final principal payment made on April 1, 2006. These notes required quarterly interest payments at an interest rate of 5.0% per annum.

At March 31, 2006, the current portion of these notes payable aggregated approximately $5.8 million.
The Company has certain operating lease agreements related to operating locations and facilities with the former owners of Construction Metals (related parties) or companies controlled by these parties. Rental expense associated with these related party operating leases aggregated approximately $339,000 and $388,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Two members of our Board of Directors are partners in law firms that provide legal services to the Company.

Statements by the Company, other than historical information, constitute “forward looking statements” as defined within the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on current expectations, are inherently uncertain, are subject to risks and should be viewed with caution. Actual results and experience may differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors that could affect these statements include, but are not limited to, the following: the impact of changing steel prices on the Company’s results of operations; changes in raw material pricing and availability; changing demand for the Company’s products and services; and changes in interest or tax rates. In addition, such forward-looking statements could also be affected by general industry and market conditions, as well as general economic and political conditions.
The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
The Company converted its legacy consolidation system and its corporate general ledger system to Cognos and Great Plains, respectively, during the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The completion of these system implementations at our corporate offices should enhance our internal controls as follows:
  a.   The new consolidation system will integrate various databases into consolidated files; and reduce the number of manual processes employed by the Company;
 
  b.   The new general ledger system is technologically advanced and will reduce the number of manual processes employed by the Company; and
 
  c.   The Company has designed new processes and implemented new policies and procedures in connection with the conversion.
The Company imposed mitigating and redundant controls where changes to certain processes were underway and not completed.
There have been no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined by Rule 13a-15(f)) that occurred during the period covered by the report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
