BLUELINX HOLDINGS INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 1, 2011
1. Basis of Presentation and Background
Basis of Presentation
BlueLinx Holdings Inc. has prepared the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial
Statements, including its accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, in accordance
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore they do not include all of the information and
notes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These interim
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying
notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 1, 2011, as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Our fiscal year is a 52- or 53-week period ending
on the Saturday closest to the end of the calendar year. Fiscal year 2011 and fiscal year 2010 each
contain 52 weeks. BlueLinx Corporation is the wholly-owned operating subsidiary of BlueLinx
Holdings Inc. and is referred to herein as the operating subsidiary when necessary.
We believe the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of
our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The
preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements
and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could
be material. In addition, the operating results for interim periods may not be indicative of the
results of operations for a full year. We are exposed to fluctuations in quarterly sales volumes
and expenses due to seasonal factors, with the second and third quarters typically accounting for
the highest sales volumes. These seasonal factors are common in the building products distribution
industry.
We are a leading distributor of building products in North America with approximately 1,900
employees. We offer approximately 10,000 products from over 750 suppliers to service more than
11,500 customers nationwide, including dealers, industrial manufacturers, manufactured housing
producers and home improvement retailers. We operate our distribution business from sales centers
in Atlanta and Denver, and our network of more than 55 distribution centers.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an agreement
exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, our price to the buyer is fixed and
determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Delivery is not considered to have occurred
until the customer takes title and assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. The timing of
revenue recognition is largely dependent on shipping terms. Revenue is recorded at the time of
shipment for terms designated as FOB (free on board) shipping point. For sales transactions
designated FOB destination, revenue is recorded when the product is delivered to the customers
delivery site.
All revenues are recorded at gross. The key indicators used to determine when and how revenue
is recorded are as follows:
|
|
|
We are the primary obligor responsible for fulfillment and all other aspects
of the customer relationship. |
|
|
|
Title passes to BlueLinx and we carry all risk of loss related to warehouse
and third-party (reload) inventory and inventory shipped directly from
vendors to our customers. |
|
|
|
We are responsible for all product returns. |
|
|
|
We control the selling price for all channels. |
|
|
|
We select the supplier. |
|
|
|
We bear all credit risk. |
7
In addition, we provide inventory to certain customers through pre-arranged agreements on a
consignment basis. Customer consigned inventory is maintained and stored by certain customers;
however, ownership and risk of loss remains with us. When the inventory is sold by the customer, we
recognize revenue on a gross basis.
All revenues recognized are net of trade allowances, cash discounts and sales returns. Cash
discounts and sales returns are estimated using historical experience. Trade allowances are based
on the estimated obligations and historical experience. Adjustments to earnings resulting from
revisions to estimates on discounts and returns have been insignificant for each of the reported
periods.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly-liquid investments with maturity dates of less
than three months when purchased.
Restricted Cash
We had restricted cash of $14.0 million and $42.2 million at October 1, 2011 and January 1,
2011, respectively. Restricted cash primarily includes amounts held in escrow related to our
mortgage and insurance for workers compensation, auto liability, and general liability. Restricted
cash is included in Other current assets and Other non-current assets on the accompanying
Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The table below provides the balances of each individual component in restricted cash as of
October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011 (in thousands):

As a condition of the amendment to the mortgage, entered into on July 14, 2011, a payment of
$38.3 million was made from cash held in escrow and applied to the mortgage principal in July 2011.
See Note 8 below for more detail. |
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Related Reserves
We evaluate the collectability of accounts receivable based on numerous factors, including
past transaction history with customers and their creditworthiness. We maintain an allowance for
doubtful accounts for each aging category on our aged trial balance, which is aged utilizing
contractual terms, based on our historical loss experience. This estimate is periodically adjusted
when we become aware of specific customers inability to meet their financial obligations (e.g.,
bankruptcy filing or other evidence of liquidity problems). As we determine that specific balances
will ultimately be uncollectible, we remove them from our aged trial balance. Additionally, we
maintain reserves for cash discounts that we expect customers to earn as well as expected returns.
At October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011, these reserves totaled $5.7 million. Adjustments to
earnings resulting from revisions to estimates on discounts and uncollectible accounts have been
insignificant.
Inventory Valuation
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market. The cost of all inventories is
determined by the moving average cost method. We have included all material charges directly or
indirectly incurred in bringing inventory to its existing condition and location. We evaluate our
inventory value at the end of each quarter to ensure that first quality, actively moving inventory,
when viewed by category, is carried at the lower of cost or market. At October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011,
the market value of our inventory exceeded its cost. Adjustments to earnings resulting from
revisions to lower of cost or market estimates have been insignificant.
Additionally, we maintain a reserve for the estimated value impairment associated with
damaged, excess and obsolete inventory. The damaged, excess and obsolete reserve generally includes
discontinued items or inventory that has turn days in excess of 270 days, excluding new items
during their product launch. At October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011, our damaged, excess and
obsolete inventory reserves were $1.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Adjustments to
earnings resulting from revisions to damaged, excess and obsolete estimates have been
insignificant.
8
Consignment Inventory
We enter into consignment inventory agreements with our vendors. This vendor consignment
inventory relationship allows us to obtain and store vendor inventory at our warehouses and reload
facilities; however, ownership remains with the vendor and risk of loss generally remains with the
vendor. When the inventory is sold, we are required to the pay the vendor and we simultaneously
take and transfer ownership from the vendor to the customer.
Consideration Received from Vendors and Paid to Customers
Each year, we enter into agreements with many of our vendors providing for inventory purchase
rebates, generally based on achievement of specified volume purchasing levels, price protection and
various marketing allowances that are common industry practice. We accrue for the receipt of vendor
rebates based on purchases, and also reduce inventory value to reflect the net acquisition cost
(purchase price less expected purchase rebates). At October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011, the vendor
rebate receivable totaled $8.2 million and $9.5 million, respectively. Adjustments to earnings
resulting from revisions to rebate estimates have been insignificant.
In addition, we enter into agreements with many of our customers to offer customer rebates,
generally based on achievement of specified volume sales levels and various marketing allowances
that are a common industry practice. We accrue for the payment of customer rebates based on sales
to the customer, and also reduce sales value to reflect the net sales (sales price less expected
customer rebates). At October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011, the customer rebate payable totaled $7.7
million and $6.4 million, respectively. Adjustments to earnings resulting from revisions to rebate
estimates have been insignificant.
Net Loss per Common Share
We calculate our basic net loss per share by dividing net loss by the weighted average number
of common shares and participating securities outstanding for the period. Restricted stock granted
by us to certain management level employees and directors participate in dividends on the same
basis as common shares and are non-forfeitable by the holder. The unvested restricted stock
contains non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents. As a result, these
share-based awards meet the definition of a participating security and are included in the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding, pursuant to the two-class method, for the periods that
present net income. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a
participating security as having rights to earnings that would otherwise have been available to
common stockholders. Given that the restricted stockholders do not have a contractual obligation
to participate in the losses and the inclusion of such unvested restricted shares in our basic and
dilutive per share calculations would be anti-dilutive, we have not included these amounts in our
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for periods in which we report a net loss.
Therefore, we have not included 2,161,423 and 1,977,458 of unvested restricted shares that had the
right to participate in dividends in our basic and dilutive calculations for the first nine months
of fiscal 2011 and for the first nine months of fiscal 2010, respectively.
Except when the effect would be anti-dilutive, the diluted earnings per share calculation
includes the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of stock options using the treasury stock
method. Our restricted stock units are settled in cash upon vesting and are considered liability
awards. Therefore, these restricted stock units are not included in the computation of the basic
and diluted earnings per share.
As we experienced losses in all periods, for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 and for the
first nine months of fiscal 2011, we excluded 3,076,739 unvested share-based awards from the
diluted earnings per share calculation because they were anti-dilutive. For the third quarter of
fiscal 2010 and for the first nine months of fiscal 2010, we excluded 3,127,459 unvested
share-based awards from the diluted earnings per share calculation because they were
anti-dilutive.
9
Stock-Based Compensation
We have two stock-based compensation plans covering officers, directors, certain employees and
consultants: the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2004 Plan) and the 2006 Long Term Equity
Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan). The plans are designed to motivate and retain individuals who are
responsible for the attainment of our primary long-term performance goals. The plans provide a
means whereby our employees and directors develop a sense of proprietorship and personal
involvement in our development and financial success and encourage them to devote their best
efforts to our business. Although we do not have a formal policy on the matter, we issue new shares
of our common stock to participants, upon the exercise of options or granting of restricted stock,
out of the total amount of common shares authorized for issuance under the 2004 Plan and the 2006
Plan. During the first nine months of fiscal 2011, the Compensation Committee granted 618,972
restricted shares of our common stock to certain of our officers and directors. Restricted shares
of 364,303 vested in the first nine months of 2011 due to completion of the vesting term.
We recognize compensation expense equal to the grant-date fair value for all share-based
payment awards that are expected to vest. This expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over
the requisite service period of the entire award, unless the awards are subject to market or
performance conditions, in which case we recognize compensation expense over the requisite service
period of each separate vesting tranche to the extent the occurrence of such conditions are
probable. All compensation expense related to our share-based payment awards is recorded in
Selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For
the third quarter of fiscal 2011 and for the first nine months of fiscal 2011, our total
stock-based compensation expense was $0.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively. For the third
quarter of fiscal 2010 and for the first nine months of fiscal 2010, our total stock-based
compensation expense was $1.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively. We did not recognize related
income tax benefits during these periods.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method. Accordingly, deferred income
taxes are recognized for differences between the income tax and financial reporting bases of our
assets and liabilities based on enacted tax laws and tax rates applicable to the periods in which
the differences are expected to affect taxable income. We recognize a valuation allowance, when
based on the weight of all available evidence, we believe it is more likely than not that some or
all of our deferred tax assets will not be realized. In evaluating our ability to recover our
deferred income tax assets, we considered available positive and negative evidence, including our
past operating results, our ability to carryback losses against prior taxable income, the existence
of cumulative losses in the most recent years, our forecast of future taxable income and an excess
of appreciated assets over the tax basis of our net assets. In estimating future taxable income, we
developed assumptions including the amount of future state and federal pretax operating and
non-operating income, the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and
prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions required significant judgment about the
forecasts of future taxable income. We considered all of the available positive and negative
evidence during the third quarter of fiscal 2011 and based on the weight of available evidence, we
recorded an additional deferred tax asset and valuation allowance of $2.4 million relating to our
current period net operating losses, which resulted in a total net deferred tax asset of $57.4
million with a valuation allowance of a corresponding amount as of October 1, 2011.
If the realization of deferred tax assets in the future is considered more likely than not, a
reduction to the valuation allowance related to the deferred tax assets would increase net income
in the period that such a determination is made. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered
realizable is based on significant estimates, and it is possible that changes in these estimates
could materially affect the financial condition and results of operations. Our effective tax rate
may vary from period to period based on changes in estimated taxable income or loss; changes to the
valuation allowance; changes to federal or state tax laws; and as a result of acquisitions.
We generally believe that the positions taken on previously filed tax returns are more likely
than not to be sustained by the taxing authorities. We have recorded income tax and related
interest liabilities where we believe our position may not be sustained. Such amounts are
disclosed in Note 5 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended January 1, 2011. There
have been nominal changes to our tax positions during the first nine months of fiscal 2011.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets with definite useful
lives, are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
We consider whether there were indicators of potential impairment on a quarterly basis.
Indicators of impairment include current period losses combined with a history of losses,
managements decision to exit a facility, reductions in the fair market value of real properties
and changes in other circumstances that indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable.
Our evaluation of long-lived assets is performed at the lowest level of identifiable cash
flows, which is generally the individual distribution facility. In the event of indicators of
impairment, the assets of the distribution facility are evaluated by comparing the facilitys
undiscounted cash flows over the estimated useful life of the asset, which ranges between 5-40
years, to its carrying value. If the carrying value is greater than the undiscounted cash flows, an
impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying value of the asset and the
estimated fair market value. Impairment losses are recorded as a component of Selling, general and
administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
10
Our estimate of undiscounted cash flows is subject to assumptions that affect estimated
operating income at a distribution facility level. These assumptions are related to future sales,
margin growth rates, economic conditions, market competition and inflation. In the event that
undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying value of a facility, our estimates of fair
market value are generally based on market appraisals and our experience with related market
transactions. These assumptions used to determine impairment are considered to be level 3
measurements in the fair value hierarchy as defined in Note 13 of the Consolidated Financial
Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2011.
Our results for the first nine months of fiscal 2011 were negatively impacted by severe winter
weather and a decrease in housing starts when compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2010.
The higher number of housing starts in the first nine months of 2010 was due in part to the effect
of the housing tax credit, which expired in April of 2010. The reduction in unit volume has not
resulted in impairment indictors of a magnitude that would result in reductions to the underlying
assumptions of our January 1, 2011 projected undiscounted cash flows, which exceeded our carrying
value in all cases during the performance of our January 1, 2011 impairment analysis, due primarily
to the increase in gross margin percentage and tightly managed variable costs.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2011 our Newtown, CT facility was damaged due to severe
winter weather. As a result of the damage to the facility and its contents we have recorded a
receivable in the amount of $3.8 million. The receivable is comprised of a $2.2 million receivable
related to the building, $2.2 million related to inventory, and $0.5 million of operating expenses,
net of cash received of $1.1 million. We recognized an impairment of $1.0 million on the building
and recorded a corresponding insurance recovery for the same amount during the second fiscal
quarter of fiscal 2011. In the third fiscal quarter of fiscal 2011, we recorded a $1.2 million
gain through Selling, general and administrative expenses related to the damaged building based on
an agreement reached between our insurer and us prior to the end of the quarter regarding
the recovery amount and the fact that we received a $2.2 million payment for the building subsequent to quarter end.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2011, we also recognized approximately $1.9 million and $0.3
million of impairment related to damaged inventory and consigned inventory, respectively and a
corresponding insurance recovery of the same amount in Selling, general and administrative
expenses. Additional operating expenses incurred related to servicing existing customers from a
different location and the clean up of the facility site resulted in an insurance recovery, which
was recorded for these additional operating expenses in Selling, general and administrative
expenses, of $0.3 million and $0.5 million for the three and nine month periods ended October 1,
2011, respectively. We recorded the recovery of such losses at the time that the minimum expected
proceeds under our insurance policy became probable and estimable. We recorded the gain associated
with the amount to be paid in connection with the building at the time that all contingencies related to
this part of the claim were resolved.
Self-Insurance
It is our policy to self-insure, up to certain limits, traditional risks including
workers compensation, comprehensive general liability, and auto liability. Our self-insured
deductible for each claim involving workers compensation, comprehensive general liability
(including product liability claims), and auto liability is limited to $0.8 million, $0.8 million,
and $2.0 million, respectively. We are also self-insured up to certain limits for certain other
insurable risks, primarily physical loss to property ($0.1 million per occurrence) and the majority
of our medical benefit plans ($0.3 million per occurrence). Insurance coverage is maintained for
catastrophic property and casualty exposures as well as those risks required to be insured by law
or contract. A provision for claims under this self-insured program, based on our estimate of the
aggregate liability for claims incurred, is revised and recorded annually. The estimate is derived
from both internal and external sources including but not limited to actuarial estimates. The
actuarial estimates are subject to uncertainty from various sources, including, among others,
changes in claim reporting patterns, claim settlement patterns, judicial decisions, legislation,
and economic conditions. Although, we believe that the actuarial estimates are reasonable,
significant differences related to the items noted above could materially affect our self-insurance
obligations, future expense and cash flow. At October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011, the
self-insurance reserves totaled $8.2 million and $7.6 million, respectively.
11
3. Restructuring Charges
We account for exit and disposal costs by recognizing a liability for costs associated with an
exit or disposal activity at fair value in the period in which it is incurred or when the entity
ceases using the right conveyed by a contract (i.e., the right to use a leased property). Our
restructuring charges included accruals for estimated losses on facility costs based on our
contractual obligations net of estimated sublease income based on current comparable market rates
for leases. We reassess this liability periodically based on current market conditions. Revisions
to our estimates of this liability could materially impact our operating results and financial
position in future periods if anticipated events and key assumptions, such as the timing and
amounts of sublease rental income, either do not materialize or change. These costs are included in
Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for
the first nine months of fiscal 2011 and the first nine months of fiscal 2010, and Other current
liabilities and Other non-current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at October 1,
2011 and January 1, 2011.
We account for severance and outplacement costs by recognizing a liability for employees
rights to post-employment benefits at the time in which such costs become probable and estimable.
These costs are included in Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations for the first nine months of fiscal 2011 and the first nine months of
fiscal 2010, and in Accrued compensation on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the periods ended
October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011.
2007 Facility Consolidation and Severance Costs
During fiscal 2007, we announced a plan to adjust our cost structure in order to manage our
costs more effectively. The plan included the consolidation of our corporate headquarters and sales
center to one building from two buildings and reduction in force initiatives which resulted in
charges of $17.1 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007. As of October 1, 2011 and
January 1, 2011, there was no remaining accrued severance related to reduction in force initiatives
completed in fiscal 2007.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2011, we entered into an amendment to our corporate
headquarters lease in Atlanta, GA related to the unoccupied 4100 building. This amendment released
us from our obligations with respect to this unoccupied space as of January 31, 2012, in exchange
for a $5.0 million space remittance fee, due on or before that date. In addition, we are obligated
to pay $1.2 million on or before December 31, 2013 to be used for tenant improvements. The
provisions relating to the occupied 4300 building remain unchanged. Under the existing provisions,
the current term of the lease ends on January 31, 2019. The amendment resulted in a reduction of
our restructuring reserve of approximately $2.0 million, with the credit recorded in Selling,
general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

4. Assets Held for Sale and Net Gain on Disposition
As part of our restructuring efforts to improve our cost structure and cash flow, we closed
certain facilities and designated them as assets held for sale. At the time of designation, we
ceased recognizing depreciation expense on these assets. As of October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011,
total assets held for sale were $2.2 million and $1.6 million respectively, and were included in
Other current assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the first nine months of fiscal
2011, we sold certain real properties held for sale that resulted in a $6.9 million gain recorded
in Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
All of this activity occurred during the first quarter of 2011. We continue to actively market the
remaining properties that are held for sale. Due to the fact that, as of October 1, 2011 the
remaining properties are all primarily land, depreciation expense is not materially impacted.

related to our interest rate swap was $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively. |
6. Employee Benefits
Defined Benefit Pension Plans
Most of our hourly employees participate in noncontributory defined benefit pension plans.
These include a plan that is administered solely by us (the hourly pension plan) and
union-administered multiemployer plans. Our funding policy for the hourly pension plan is based on
actuarial calculations and the applicable requirements of federal law. We are required to make a
$3.3 million contribution to the hourly pension plan in fiscal 2011, all of which has been funded.
Benefits under the majority of plans for hourly employees (including multiemployer plans) are
primarily related to years of service.

7. Revolving Credit Facilities
As of October 1, 2011, we had outstanding borrowings of $115.6 million and excess availability
of $148.9 million under the terms of our U.S. revolving credit facility (the U.S. revolving credit
facility). The interest rate on the U.S. revolving credit facility was 4.2% at October 1, 2011.
As of October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $2.6
million and $5.9 million, respectively, primarily for the purposes of securing collateral
requirements under the interest rate swap (which was terminated in March of 2011), casualty
insurance programs and for guaranteeing lease and certain other obligations.
On July 7, 2010, we reached an agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
successor by merger to Wachovia Bank, National Association, and the other signatories to our
existing U.S. revolving credit facility, dated August 4, 2006, as amended, to amend the terms
thereof. This amendment extended the date of final maturity of the facility to January 7, 2014 and
decreased the maximum availability under the agreement from $500 million to $400 million. This
amendment also includes an additional $100 million uncommitted accordion credit facility, which
will permit us to increase the maximum borrowing capacity up to $500 million. As a result of
reducing our maximum borrowing capacity from $500 million to $400 million, we recorded expense of
$0.2 million in fiscal 2010 for the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the reduction
in borrowing capacity. We also incurred $6.5 million in new debt issuance costs, which we
capitalized and will continue to amortize to interest expense over the renewed debt term.
On May 10, 2011, we entered into an amendment to our U.S. revolving credit facility, which
became effective on July 29, 2011, following the successful completion of the rights offering
described below. Certain components of the borrowing base calculation and excess liquidity
calculation were adjusted as part of this amendment. The most significant of the changes included
in the amendment are described in the discussion of the terms and covenants of the U.S. revolving
credit facility below.
As of October 1, 2011, under the amended agreement, our U.S. revolving credit facility
contains customary negative covenants and restrictions for asset based loans. Our most significant
covenant is a requirement that we maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0 in the event
our excess availability falls below the greater of $30 million or the amount equal to 15% of the
lesser of the borrowing base or $400 million (the Excess Availability Threshold). We are
required to maintain the Excess Availability Threshold in order to avoid being required to meet
certain financial ratios and triggering additional limits on capital expenditures. The amount of
our eligible accounts receivable included in the calculation of the borrowing base is 87.5%. Under
the amended U.S. revolving credit facility agreement, the applicable percentage of the net
liquidation value of our eligible inventory included in the calculation of the borrowing base is
90% for the periods January to March 2012 and January to March 2013, subject to specified EBITDA
targets. The percentage of the net liquidation value of our eligible inventory included in the
borrowing remains the same as under the original agreement outside of the time period just
specified. Also included in the calculation of our excess availability is certain cash on the
balance sheet, which is subject to a deposit account control agreement. The fixed charge coverage
ratio is calculated as EBITDA divided by the sum of cash payments for income taxes, interest
expense, cash dividends, principal payments on debt, and capital expenditures. EBITDA is defined
as BlueLinx Corporations net income before interest and tax expense, depreciation and amortization
expense, and other non-cash charges. The fixed charge coverage ratio requirement only applies to
us when excess availability under our amended U.S. revolving credit facility is less than the
Excess Availability Threshold on any date. As of October 1, 2011 and through the time of the filing
of this Form 10-Q, we were in compliance with all covenants. We had
$148.9 million and $103.4 million of
availability as of October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011, respectively. Our lowest level of fiscal
month end availability in the last three years as of October 1, 2011 was $94.0 million. We do not
anticipate our excess availability in fiscal 2011 will drop below the Excess Availability
Threshold. Should our excess availability fall below the Excess Availability Threshold on any
date, however, we would not meet the required fixed charge coverage ratio with our current
operating results. In addition, we must maintain a springing lock-box arrangement where customer
remittances go directly to a lock-box maintained by our lenders and then are forwarded to our
general bank accounts. Our outstanding borrowings are not reduced by these payments unless our
excess availability falls below the greater of $35 million or the amount equal to 15% of the lesser
of the borrowing base or $400 million on any date or in the event of default. Our amended U.S.
revolving credit facility does not contain a subjective acceleration clause which would allow our
lenders to accelerate the scheduled maturities of our debt or to cancel our agreement.
On July 22, 2011, we concluded an offering of our common stock to our stockholders, pursuant
to which we distributed to our common stockholders transferable rights to subscribe for and
purchase up to $60 million of our common stock. In conjunction with the rights offering, we
entered into an investment agreement with Cerberus ABP Investor LLC, which beneficially owned
approximately 55% of our common stock before giving effect to the rights offering, to backstop the
rights offering, subject to certain conditions, by purchasing shares of common stock that related to any rights that remained
unexercised at the expiration of the rights offering. The rights offering was fully subscribed and
as a result the backstop provisions with Cerberus were not utilized. The rights offering resulted
in gross proceeds of approximately $60 million. The majority of the gross proceeds from the rights
offering of approximately $56 million were used to pay down the U.S. revolving credit facility. A
payment on the U.S. revolving credit facility of $50.0 million was made on July 29, 2011 and an
additional payment of $6.0 million was made on August 1, 2011. We accounted for the rights issued
as a component of additional paid in capital as they were indexed to the Companys equity and there
were no net cash settlement provisions. The amendment to our U.S. revolving credit
facility, which was a condition to the rights offering, became effective upon the successful
completion of the rights offering. In addition, as a condition to the rights offering, we entered
into an amendment to our mortgage. The amendment to the mortgage is described further in Note 8.
15
On August 12, 2011, our subsidiary BlueLinx Building Products Canada Ltd.(BlueLinx Canada) entered into a
revolving credit agreement (the Canadian revolving credit facility) with CIBC Asset-Based Lending
Inc., as lender, administrative agent and collateral agent (the Agent). The maturity date of
this agreement is August 12, 2014. The Canadian revolving credit facility provides for an
asset-based revolving credit facility with an aggregate lender commitment of up to $10 million at
any time outstanding, subject to borrowing base availability. In addition, the Canadian revolving
credit facility provides for an additional $5 million uncommitted accordion credit facility.
Revolving loan (and letter of credit) availability under the facility is subject to a borrowing
base. The amount of our eligible Canadian accounts receivable included in the calculation of the
borrowing base is 85%. The amount of our eligible inventory included in the calculation of the
borrowing base is 65%. The sum of items included in the borrowing base is reduced by $0.5 million
(the availability block) and other availability reserves. In addition to paying interest on
outstanding principal under the facility, we are required to pay a fee in respect of committed but
unutilized commitments equal to 0.25% per annum. As of October 1, 2011, we had outstanding
borrowings of $2.8 million and excess availability of $1.8 million under the terms of our Canadian
revolving credit facility. The interest rate on the Canadian revolving credit facility was 4.0% at
October 1, 2011. The Canadian revolving credit facility contains customary covenants and events of
default for asset-based credit agreements of this type, including the requirement for BlueLinx
Canada to maintain a minimum adjusted tangible net worth of $3.9 million and
for that entitys capital expenditures not to exceed 120% of the amount budgeted in a given year.
As of October 1, 2011 and through the time of the filing of this Form 10-Q, we were in compliance
with all covenants.
We believe that the amounts available from our revolving credit facilities and other sources
are sufficient to fund our routine operations and capital requirements for the next 12 months. If
economic conditions, especially those related to the housing market, do not improve, we may need to
seek additional sources of capital to support our operations.
8. Mortgage
On June 9, 2006, certain special purpose entities that are wholly-owned subsidiaries of ours
entered into a $295 million mortgage loan with the German American Capital Corporation. The
mortgage has a term of ten years and is secured by 55 distribution facilities and 1 office building
owned by the special purpose entities. The stated interest rate on the mortgage is fixed at 6.35%.
German American Capital Corporation assigned half of its interest in the mortgage loan to Wachovia
Bank, National Association and both lenders securitized their Notes in separate commercial mortgage
backed securities pools in 2006.
On July 14, 2011, we entered into an amendment to the mortgage which (i) eliminated the
requirement to obtain lender approval for any transfer of equity interests that would reduce
Cerberus ABP Investor LLCs ownership in the Company and certain of our subsidiaries, directly or
indirectly, to less than 51%, (ii) provided for the immediate prepayment of $38.3 million of the
indebtedness under the mortgage without incurring a prepayment premium from funds currently held as
collateral under the mortgage and, if certain conditions are met, will allow for an additional
prepayment on or after July 30, 2014 from funds held as collateral without incurrence of a
prepayment premium, (iii) allow us, at the lenders reasonable discretion, to use a portion of the
cash held as collateral under the mortgage for specified alterations, repairs, replacements and
other improvements to the mortgaged properties, and (iv) in the event certain financial conditions
are met and the Company extends the Amended and Restated Master Lease by and among certain of our
subsidiaries with respect to properties covered by the mortgage for an additional five years, we
may request the lenders to disburse to the Company a portion of the cash held as collateral under
the mortgage. In conjunction with the modification of our mortgage agreement we incurred approximately $2.9 million
in debt fees that were capitalized and are being amortized over the remaining term of the mortgage.
The mortgage loan required interest-only payments through June 2011, at which time we began
making payments on the outstanding principal balance. The balance of the loan outstanding at the
end of ten years will then become due and payable. The principal will be paid in the following
increments (in thousands):

9. Derivatives
On June 12, 2006, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement with Goldman Sachs Capital
Markets, to hedge against interest rate risks related to our variable rate U.S. revolving credit
facility. The interest rate swap was terminated in March of 2011. This interest rate swap was
designated as a cash flow hedge. During fiscal 2009, our debt levels decreased below the interest
rate swap notional, at which point the hedge became ineffective in offsetting future changes in
expected cash flows during the remaining term of the interest rate swap.
Changes associated with the ineffective interest rate swap recognized in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations for the period from January 1, 2011 to October 1, 2011 was approximately
$1.8 million of income and are comprised of amortization of the remaining accumulated other
comprehensive loss of the ineffective swap of $0.4 million offset by income of $2.2 million related
to reducing the fair value of the ineffective interest rate swap liability to zero. Due to the
termination of the swap in the first quarter of 2011, there was no activity for the quarter ended
October 1, 2011. Changes associated with the ineffective interest rate swap recognized in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the period from January 3, 2010 to October 2, 2010 were
approximately $3.2 million of income and are comprised of amortization of the remaining accumulated
other comprehensive loss over the life of the ineffective swap of $1.6 million offset by income of
$4.8 million related to current year changes in the fair value of the ineffective interest rate
swap liability. Changes associated with the ineffective interest rate swap recognized in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the period July 4, 2010 to October 2, 2010 were
approximately $1.2 million of income and are comprised of amortization of the remaining accumulated
other comprehensive loss over the life of the ineffective swap of $0.5 million offset by income of
$1.7 million related to current year changes in the fair value of the ineffective interest rate
swap liability. The fair value of our swap liability at January 1, 2011 was $2.2 million.

10. Fair Value Measurements
We determine a fair value measurement based on the assumptions a market participant would use
in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value measurement guidance established a three level
hierarchy making a distinction between market participant assumptions based on (i) unadjusted
quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market (Level 1), (ii) quoted prices
in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for
substantially the full term of the asset or liability (Level 2), and (iii) prices or valuation
techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value
measurement (Level 3).
We had an ineffective interest rate swap that terminated in March of fiscal 2011. The swap is
valued using a valuation model that has inputs other than quoted market prices that are both
observable and unobservable.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the level 3 interest rate swap liability
measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 1, 2011 (in thousands):

The $2.2 million realized gain is included in Changes associated with ineffective interest
rate swap in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine month period ended October 1,
2011.
Carrying amounts for our financial instruments are not significantly different from their fair
value, with the exception of our mortgage. To determine the fair value of our mortgage, we used a
discounted cash flow model. Assumptions critical to our fair value in the period were present value
factors used in determining fair value and an interest rate. At October 1, 2011, the carrying
value and fair value of our mortgage was $235.3 million and $235.1 million, respectively.

11. Related Party Transactions
Cerberus Capital Management, L.P., our equity sponsor, retains consultants that specialize in
operations management and support and who provide Cerberus with consulting advice concerning
portfolio companies in which funds and accounts managed by Cerberus or its affiliates have
invested. From time to time, Cerberus makes the services of these consultants available to
Cerberus portfolio companies. We believe that the terms of these consulting arrangements are
favorable to us, or, alternatively, are materially consistent with those terms that would have been
obtained by us in an arrangement with an unaffiliated third party. We have normal service,
purchase and sales arrangements with other entities that are owned or controlled by Cerberus. We
believe that these transactions are at arms length terms and are not material to our results of
operations or financial position.
On April 26, 2011, we entered into an investment agreement with Cerberus ABP Investor LLC
(Cerberus) in connection with our rights offering, which expired on July 22, 2011. Pursuant to
the investment agreement, Cerberus agreed to purchase from us, unsubscribed shares of our common
stock, after the other stockholders had exercised their basic subscription rights and
over-subscription privileges in connection with the rights offering, such that gross proceeds of
the rights offering would be no less than $60.0 million. The price per share paid by Cerberus for
such common stock under the investment agreement was equal to the subscription price paid in the
rights offering by all stockholders. As a result of the rights offering, Cerberus purchased only
its pro rata share of the common stock issued in the rights offering.
12. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
During the first nine months of fiscal 2011, there were no material changes to our previously
disclosed legal proceedings. Additionally, we are, and from time to time may be, a party to routine
legal proceedings incidental to the operation of our business. The outcome of any pending or
threatened proceedings is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition, operating results or cash flows, based on our current understanding of the relevant
facts. Legal expenses incurred related to these contingencies are generally expensed as incurred.
Environmental Matters
From time to time, we are involved in various proceedings incidental to our businesses and we
are subject to a variety of environmental and pollution control laws and regulations in all
jurisdictions in which we operate. Although the ultimate outcome of these proceedings cannot be
determined with certainty, based on presently available information management believes that
adequate reserves have been established for probable losses with respect thereto. Management
further believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters could be material to operating results
in any given quarter but will not have a materially adverse effect on our long-term financial
condition, our results of operations, or our cash flows.
Collective Bargaining Agreements
As of October 1, 2011, approximately 30% of our employees were represented by various labor
unions. As of October 1, 2011, we had 46 collective bargaining agreements, of which 4, covering
approximately 40 total employees, are up for renewal in 2011, and one collective bargaining
agreement expired in March 2010. We are in active negotiations with the subject union, and, in the
interim, are operating under the terms and conditions of the expired agreement.
13. Subsequent Events
Subsequent to the quarter end, after an extensive evaluation, we made a decision to
consolidate the Seattle, Washington facility into the Portland, Oregon facility and the Sacramento,
California facility into the Fremont, California facility. We will continue to serve the Seattle and Sacramento markets from our Portland and Fremont facilities. We expect
to service our customers from these consolidated neighboring full service facilities. We are
actively marketing the Seattle and Sacramento properties and have no reason to believe that book
value exceeds fair value.
18
We are not aware of any other significant events that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet
date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on our Consolidated
Financial Statements.
14. Unaudited Supplemental Consolidating Financial Statements
The condensed consolidating financial information as of October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011
and for the third quarters and first nine months of fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010 is provided due to
restrictions in our U.S. revolving credit facility that limit distributions by BlueLinx
Corporation, our operating company and our wholly-owned subsidiary, to us, which, in turn, may
limit our ability to pay dividends to holders of our common stock (see our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended January 1, 2011, for a more detailed discussion of these restrictions and
the terms of the facility). Also included in the supplemental condensed consolidated financial
statements are sixty single member limited liability companies, which are wholly owned by us (the
LLC subsidiaries). The LLC subsidiaries own certain warehouse properties that are occupied by
BlueLinx Corporation, each under the terms of a master lease agreement. The warehouse properties
collateralize a mortgage loan and are not available to satisfy the debts and other obligations of
either us or BlueLinx Corporation.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The information contained in this Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations (MD&A) has been derived from our historical financial statements and is
intended to provide information to assist you in better understanding and evaluating our financial
condition and results of operations. We recommend that you read this MD&A section in conjunction
with our consolidated financial statements and notes to those statements included in Item 1 of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January
1, 2011 as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). This MD&A section is
not a comprehensive discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations,
but rather updates disclosures made in the aforementioned filing. The discussion below contains
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking
statements include, without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply
future results, performance or achievements, and may contain the words believe, anticipate,
expect, estimate, intend, project, plan, will be, will likely continue, will likely
result or words or phrases of similar meaning. All of these forward-looking statements are based
on estimates and assumptions made by our management that, although believed by us to be reasonable,
are inherently uncertain. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including,
but not limited to, economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors outside of our
control, that may cause our business, strategy or actual results to differ materially from the
forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties may include those discussed under the
heading Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 1, 2011 as
filed with the SEC and other factors, some of which may not be known to us. We operate in a
changing environment in which new risks can emerge from time to time. It is not possible for
management to predict all of these risks, nor can it assess the extent to which any factor, or a
combination of factors, may cause our business, strategy or actual results to differ materially
from those contained in forward-looking statements. Factors you should consider that could cause
these differences include, among other things:
|
|
|
changes in the prices, supply and/or demand for products which we distribute, especially
as a result of conditions in the residential housing market; |
|
|
|
inventory levels of new and existing homes for sale; |
|
|
|
general economic and business conditions in the United States; |
|
|
|
the financial condition and credit worthiness of our customers; |
|
|
|
the activities of competitors; |
|
|
|
changes in significant operating expenses; |
|
|
|
risk of losses associated with accidents; |
|
|
|
exposure to product liability claims; |
|
|
|
changes in the availability of capital and interest rates; |
|
|
|
immigration patterns and job and household formation; |
|
|
|
our ability to identify acquisition opportunities and effectively and cost-efficiently
integrate acquisitions; |
|
|
|
our ability to finalize all necessary agreements for the launch of our privately branded engineered lumber line; |
|
|
|
customer acceptance of our privately branded engineered lumber line; |
|
|
|
adverse weather patterns or conditions; |
|
|
|
acts of war or terrorist activities; |
|
|
|
variations in the performance of the financial markets, including the credit markets; |
|
|
|
|
the other factors described herein under and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended January 1, 2011 as filed with the SEC. |
26
Given these risks and uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any
forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as
required by law.
Overview
Background
We are a leading distributor of building products in the United States. We distribute
approximately 10,000 products to more than 11,500 customers through our network of more than 55
distribution centers which serve all major metropolitan markets in the United States. We distribute
products in two principal categories: structural products and specialty products. Structural
products include plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), rebar and remesh, lumber and other wood
products primarily used for structural support, walls and flooring in construction projects.
Structural products represented approximately 39% of our third quarter of fiscal 2011 gross sales.
Specialty products include roofing, insulation, moulding, engineered wood, vinyl products (used
primarily in siding), outdoor living, and metal products (excluding rebar and remesh). Specialty
products accounted for approximately 61% of our third quarter of fiscal 2011 gross sales.
Industry Conditions
As noted above, we operate in a changing environment in which new risks can emerge from time
to time. A number of factors cause our results of operations to fluctuate from period to period.
Many of these factors are seasonal or cyclical in nature. Conditions in the United States housing
market continue to be at historically low levels. Our operating results have declined during the
past several years as they are closely tied to U.S. housing starts. Additionally, the mortgage
markets have experienced substantial disruption due to the number of defaults in the market. This
disruption and the related defaults have increased the inventory of homes for sale and also have
caused lenders to tighten mortgage qualification criteria which further reduces demand for new
homes. We expect the downturn in new housing activity will continue to negatively impact our
operating results for the foreseeable future. We continue to prudently manage our inventories,
receivables and spending in this environment. However, along with many forecasters, we believe U.S.
housing demand will improve in the long term based on population demographics and a variety of
other factors.
Selected Factors Affecting Our Operating Results
Our operating results are affected by housing starts, mobile home production, industrial
production, repair and remodeling spending and non-residential construction. Our operating results
are also impacted by changes in product prices. Structural product prices can vary significantly
based on short-term and long-term changes in supply and demand. The prices of specialty products
can also vary from time to time, although they are generally significantly less variable than
structural products.
The following table sets forth changes in net sales by product category, sales variances due
to changes in unit volume and dollar and percentage changes in unit volume and price versus
comparable prior periods, in each case for the third quarter of fiscal 2011, the third quarter of
fiscal 2010, the first nine months of fiscal 2011, the first nine months of fiscal 2010, fiscal
2010 and fiscal 2009.

Net sales. For the third quarter of fiscal 2011, net sales increased by 1.8%, or $8.2
million, to $472.9 million. Sales during the quarter were positively impacted by the planned shift
to a higher margin product mix and a moderate increase in volume driven by an increase in housing
starts. New home construction has a significant impact on our sales. Specialty sales, primarily
consisting of roofing, specialty panels, insulation, moulding, engineered wood products, vinyl
siding, composite decking and metal products (excluding rebar and remesh) increased by $32.8
million, or 12.4%, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2010, primarily due to an increase in
specialty unit volume of 11.4% and an increase in specialty products prices of 1.0%. Structural
sales, including plywood, OSB, lumber and metal rebar, decreased by $26.5 million, or 12.4% from a
year ago, primarily as a result of a decrease in unit volume of 14.0%, slightly offset by an
increase in structural product prices of 1.6%.
Gross
profit. Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 was $58.3 million, or 12.3% of sales,
compared to $49.9 million, or 10.7% of sales, in the prior year period. The increase in gross profit dollars
compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2010 was driven primarily by an increase in specialty unit volumes of
11.4% and an increase in specialty products prices of 1.0%. The increase in specialty unit volume was partially
offset by a decrease in structural unit volume of 14.0%. The gross margin percentage increased to 12.3%
primarily due to a shift in sales mix to the higher gross margin specialty product sales
combined with increased margins in both specialty and structural products due to our efforts to manage gross
margins across all product categories.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
were $54.5 million, or 11.5% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2011, compared to $54.1
million, or 11.6% of net sales, a $0.4 million increase compared to the third quarter of fiscal
2010. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expense included a $1.1 million net
reduction in force charge, an increase in variable compensation of $0.6 million and fuel of $1.0
million. These increases were primarily offset by a $2.0 million gain on the modification of the lease
for our corporate headquarters in Atlanta, GA and a $1.2 million gain from an insurance recovery on
the Newtown, CT facility. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of
fiscal 2010 included $3.0 million of tender offer expenses, which was offset by a gain of $5.2
million from settlement of the class action lawsuit regarding oriented strand board in which we were a claimant.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense totaled $2.6 million for
the third quarter of fiscal 2011, compared to $3.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2010.
The $0.5 million decrease in depreciation and amortization is primarily
related to a portion of our property and equipment becoming fully depreciated during fiscal
2011 coupled with capital expenditures not keeping pace with our historical purchase levels of
property and equipment.
29
Operating income (loss). Operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 was $1.2
million, or 0.2% of sales, compared to operating loss of $7.3 million, or (1.6)% of sales, in the
third quarter of fiscal 2010, reflecting a increase in gross profit dollars of $8.2 million, as a
result of factors described above.
Interest expense. Interest expense totaled $7.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2011
compared to $9.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2010. The $2.1 million decline is largely
due to the termination of the ineffective interest rate swap in March of fiscal 2011, which
resulted in reduced fees related to the ineffective interest rate
swap classified as interest expense of $1.9 million and a $0.6 million reduction
in interest expense due to reductions in principal related to the $38.3 million payment made as a
result of the mortgage amendment. This decrease was partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in
amortization of debt issuance costs and a $0.2 million increase in interest expense incurred on the
revolving credit facility. Interest expense included $0.9 million and $0.6 million of debt issue
cost amortization for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 and the third quarter of fiscal 2010,
respectively. During the third quarter of fiscal 2011, interest expense related to our revolving
credit facility and mortgage was $2.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively. During the third
quarter of fiscal 2010, interest expense related to our revolving credit facility and mortgage was
$1.9 million and $4.6 million, respectively. See Liquidity and Capital Resources below for a
description of amendments to both the U.S. revolving credit facility and the mortgage.
Changes associated with ineffective interest rate swap. The $1.2 million of income for the
third quarter of fiscal 2010 is related to the ineffective interest rate swap which was terminated
in March of fiscal 2011.
Provision for(benefit from) income taxes. The effective tax rate was (1.5)% and 5.0% for
the third quarter of fiscal 2011 and the third quarter of fiscal 2010, respectively. The
effective tax rate in 2011 is driven by a full valuation allowance recorded against our third
quarter federal and state benefit, tax expense related to gross receipts, Canadian and certain
state taxes. The 5.0% effective rate in 2010 is driven by a full valuation allowance recorded
against our third quarter federal and state benefit, tax expense related to gross receipts,
Canadian and certain state taxes and income tax expense allocated to accumulated other
comprehensive loss.
Net loss. Net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 was $(6.2) million compared to a net
loss of $(14.9) million for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 as a result of the above factors.
On a per-share basis, basic and diluted loss applicable to common stockholders for the third
quarter of fiscal 2011 and for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 were each $(0.12) and $(0.48),
respectively.

Net sales. For the first nine months of fiscal 2011, net sales decreased by 5.0%, or $72.2
million, to $1.4 billion. Sales during the first nine months were negatively impacted by a
decrease in housing starts and a decrease of 20.7% in structural sales, partially offset by
an 8.4% increase in specialty sales. New home construction has a significant impact on our sales.
Specialty sales, primarily consisting of roofing, specialty panels, insulation, moulding,
engineered wood products, vinyl siding, composite decking and metal products (excluding rebar and
remesh) increased by $65.3 million or 8.4% compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2010,
reflecting a 7.7% increase in unit volume and a 0.7% increase in product prices. Structural sales,
including plywood, OSB, lumber and metal rebar, decreased by $140.7 million, or 20.7% from a year
ago, primarily due to a 19.2% decrease in unit volume and a 1.5% decrease in product prices.
Gross profit. Gross profit for the first nine months of fiscal 2011 was $162.2 million, or
11.9% of sales, compared to $166.3 million, or 11.6% of sales, in the prior year period. The
decrease in gross profit dollars compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2010 was driven
primarily by a decrease in structural sales of 20.7%, partially offset by an 8.4% increase in
specialty sales. The decrease in structural sales is due to a 19.2% decrease in unit volume as a result of the reduced demand in 2011
compared to 2010, which primarily resulted from the expiration of the housing credit
in April 2010, and a 1.5% reduction in product prices.
The increase in specialty sales is due to a 0.7% increase in product prices and a 7.7% increase in unit volume, which resulted from our focus on growing our specialty sales. The gross margin percentage increased to 11.9% primarily due to a shift in sales mix resulting in an
increase in the higher gross margin specialty product sales combined with increased margins in both specialty
and structural products due to our efforts to manage gross margins across all product categories.
Selling, general, and administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the
first nine months of fiscal 2011 were $159.8 million, or 11.7% of net sales, compared to $167.7
million, or 11.7% of net sales, during the first nine months of fiscal 2010. The decrease in
selling, general, and administrative expense included a $2.0 million gain on the modification of
the lease for our corporate headquarters in Atlanta, GA, a $1.2 million gain from an insurance
recovery on the Newtown, CT facility, and a $6.9 million gain on the sale of real estate in the
first nine months of fiscal 2011. These decreases in selling, general, and administrative expenses
were partially offset by a $1.3 million reduction in force charge. Selling, general and administrative
expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 included $3.0 million of tender offer expenses,
which was offset by a gain of $5.2 million from settlement of the class action lawsuit regarding oriented strand board in which we were a claimant.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense totaled $8.1 million for
the first nine months of fiscal 2011, compared with $10.3 million for the first nine months of
fiscal 2010. The $2.2 million decrease in depreciation and amortization is primarily related to a
portion of our property and equipment becoming fully depreciated during fiscal 2011 coupled with
capital expenditures not keeping pace with our historical purchase levels of property and
equipment. In addition, certain depreciating assets were sold during the current period.
Operating loss. Operating loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2011 was $(5.7) million, or
(0.4)% of sales, compared to $(11.7) million, or (0.8)% of sales, in the prior year period. The
change in operating loss is a result of the above factors, including a 30 basis point increase in
the gross margin percentage, a decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses, and a
decrease in depreciation resulting primarily from the sale of real estate in the first quarter of
2011.
Interest expense. Interest expense totaled $23.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal
2011 compared to $24.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2010. The $0.8 million decrease
is largely due to a $3.7 million decrease in swap and other fixed charges due to the termination of
the ineffective interest rate swap and a $0.7 decrease in interest expense attributable to the mortgage. This
decrease was offset by a $2.4 million increase in interest expense from our U.S. revolving credit
facility related to a higher average debt balance and a $1.0 million increase in amortization of
debt issuance costs related to the additional costs capitalized for the amendment of the U.S.
revolving credit facility in 2010. Interest expense included $2.0 million and $1.0 million of debt
issue cost amortization for the first nine months of fiscal 2011 and for the first nine months of
fiscal 2010, respectively. During the first nine months of fiscal 2011, interest expense related
to our U.S. revolving credit facility and mortgage was $6.4 million and $13.1 million,
respectively. During the first nine months of fiscal 2010, interest expense related to our U.S.
revolving credit facility and mortgage was $4.0 million and $13.8 million (includes the $0.6
million prepayment penalty), respectively. See Liquidity and Capital Resources below for a
description of amendments to both the U.S. revolving credit facility and the mortgage.
Changes associated with ineffective interest rate swap. Changes associated with the
ineffective interest rate swap totaled $1.8 million of income for the first nine months of fiscal
2011 compared to $3.2 million of income for the first nine months of fiscal 2010. The decrease is
primarily related to the change in the swaps fair value and a decrease in amortization expense due
to the termination of the swap in March 2011.
31
Provision for(benefit from) income taxes. The effective tax rate was (0.5)% and 2.2% for the
first nine months of fiscal 2011 and the first nine months of fiscal 2010, respectively. The
effective tax rate in 2011 is driven by a full valuation allowance recorded against our
year to date federal and state benefit, tax expense related to gross receipts, Canadian and
certain state taxes. The 2.2% effective rate in 2010 is driven by a full valuation allowance
recorded against our year to date federal and state benefit, tax expense related to gross
receipts, Canadian and certain state taxes and income tax expense allocated to accumulated other
comprehensive loss.
Net loss. Net loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2011 was $(28.3) million compared to
a net loss of $(33.0) million for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 as a result of the above
factors.
On a per-share basis, basic and diluted loss per share applicable to common stockholders for
the first nine months of fiscal 2011 and for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 were $(0.75) and
$(1.08), respectively.
Seasonality
We are exposed to fluctuations in quarterly sales volumes and expenses due to seasonal
factors. These seasonal factors are common in the building products distribution industry. The
first and fourth quarters are typically our slowest quarters due to the impact of poor weather on
the construction market. During fiscal year 2011 we experienced significant
business disruption, in excess of normal seasonal fluctuations, due
to the record snow fall in the Northeast in the winter months. Our second and third quarters are typically our strongest quarters,
reflecting a substantial increase in construction due to more favorable weather conditions. Our
working capital generally peaks in the third quarter, related to the
building season.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We depend on cash flow from operations and funds available under our revolving credit
facilities to finance working capital needs and capital expenditures. We had approximately $148.9
million of excess availability under our amended U.S. revolving credit facility and $1.8 million
under our Canadian revolving credit facility, described further below, as of October 1, 2011. As
of the period ended October 1, 2011, under our amended U.S. revolving credit facility, we were
required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0 in the event our excess
availability falls below the greater of $30 million or the amount equal to 15% of the lesser of the
borrowing base or $400 million. If we fail to maintain this minimum excess availability, the
amended U.S. revolving credit facility requires us to (i) maintain certain financial ratios, which
we would not meet with current operating results, and (ii) limit our capital expenditures, which
would have a negative impact on our ability to finance working capital needs and capital
expenditures.
On July 22, 2011, we concluded an offering of our common stock to our stockholders, pursuant
to which we distributed to our common stockholders transferable rights to subscribe for and
purchase up to $60 million of our common stock. In conjunction with the rights offering, we
entered into an investment agreement with Cerberus ABP Investor LLC, which beneficially owned
approximately 55% of our common stock before giving effect to the rights offering, to backstop the
rights offering, subject to certain conditions, by purchasing shares of common stock that related
to any rights that remained unexercised at the expiration of the rights offering. The rights
offering was fully subscribed and as a result the back stop provisions with Cerberus were not
utilized. The rights offering resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $60 million. The
majority of the gross proceeds from the rights offering of approximately $56 million were used to
pay down the U.S. revolving credit facility. We accounted for the rights issued as a component of
additional paid in capital as they were indexed to the Companys equity and there were no net cash
settlement provisions. The amendment to our U.S. revolving credit facility, which was a
condition to the rights offering, became effective upon the successful completion of the rights
offering. In addition, as a condition to the rights offering, we entered into an amendment to our
mortgage. We believe that the amounts available from our revolving credit facilities and other
sources are sufficient to fund our routine operations and capital requirements for the next 12
months. If economic conditions, especially those related to the housing market, do not improve, we
may need to seek additional sources of capital to support our operations.
We may elect to selectively pursue acquisitions. Accordingly, depending on the nature of the
acquisition or currency, we may use cash or stock, or a combination of both, as acquisition
currency. Our cash requirements may significantly increase and incremental cash expenditures will
be required in connection with the integration of the acquired companys business and to pay fees
and expenses in connection with any acquisitions. To the extent that significant amounts of cash
are expended in connection with acquisitions, our liquidity position may be adversely impacted. In
addition, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in completing acquisitions in the
future. For a discussion of the risks associated with acquisitions, see the risk factor
Integrating acquisitions may be time-consuming and create costs that could reduce our net income
and cash flows set forth under Item 1A Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended January 1, 2011, as filed with the SEC.

Working Capital
Working capital increased by $1.7 million to $237.9 million at October 1, 2011 from $236.2
million at January 1, 2011. The increase in working capital was primarily attributable to
increases in receivables, inventory, and other current assets partially offset by increases in
accounts payable, overdrafts, current maturities of long-term debt, and other current liabilities.
We increased inventory levels to meet existing demand, and the increase in accounts receivable are
due to seasonal factors common in the building products distribution industry. Our accounts
payable and overdrafts increased as we purchased more products to meet existing demand. Current
debt also increased due to reclassifying a portion of our long-term debt to current.
Operating Activities
During the first nine months of fiscal 2011, cash flows used in operating activities totaled
$83.5 million. The primary drivers of cash flow used in operations were increases in accounts
receivable of $65.5 million due to an increase in sales volume
coupled with seasonal payment patterns and an increase in inventories of
$15.5 million due to an increase in purchases to meet current demand. These cash outflows were
offset by an increase in accounts payable of $26.6 million due the seasonality of our business and
the related purchasing patterns.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2010, cash flows used in operating activities totaled
$47.9 million. The primary drivers of cash flow used in operations were increases in accounts
receivable of $47.3 million due to an increase in sales volume coupled with seasonal payment
patterns and a increase in inventories of $22.4 million due to
an increase in purchases for new specialty programs and to meet
increased demand associated with seasonality. In addition, we had a
$22.5 million decrease in cash flows in operating activities due to our net loss of $33.0
million partially offset by non-cash charges of $10.5 million. These cash outflows were offset by
an increase in accounts payable of $16.1 million due the seasonality of our business; a decrease in
other working capital of $21.3 million largely due to a federal tax refund of $20.0 million
received in fiscal 2010; and a decrease in restricted cash related to the interest rate swap and
insurance of $6.0 million.
Investing Activities
During the first
nine months of fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010, cash flows provided by (used in)
investing activities totaled $3.0 million and $(2.0) million, respectively.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010, our expenditures for property and
equipment were $6.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively. These expenditures were used primarily
to purchase a replacement property for a facility sold during the first quarter of 2011, computer
equipment and leasehold improvements. Our capital expenditures for fiscal 2011 are anticipated to
be paid from our revolving credit facilities.
Proceeds from
the disposition of property totaled $9.0 million and $0.7 million for the first
nine months of fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010, respectively. The proceeds from disposition of assets
in the first nine months of fiscal 2011 were primarily related to the sale of our Nashville
facility for $6.9 million.
33
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $72.2 million and $33.4 million during the first
nine months of fiscal 2011 and the first nine months of fiscal 2010, respectively. The net cash
provided by financing activities primarily reflected an increase in the balance of our revolving
credit facilities of $21.2 million, an increase in bank overdrafts of $7.2 million, a decrease in
restricted cash related to our mortgage of $27.7 million, and an increase in cash flows
attributable to the stock rights offering, net of expenses, which totaled $58.6. These increases
were offset by payments made on our mortgage totaling $38.7 and debt financing costs of $2.6
million. See Note 8 for discussion of future mortgage principal payments. The net cash provided
by financing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2010 primarily reflected an increase in
the balance of our U.S. revolving credit facility of $46.0 million and an increase in bank
overdrafts of $3.4 million partially offset by an increase in restricted cash related to our
mortgage of $8.4 million and debt financing costs of $6.5 million.
Debt and Credit Sources
As of October 1, 2011, we had outstanding borrowings of $115.6 million and excess availability
of $148.9 million under the terms of our U.S. revolving credit facility (the U.S. revolving credit
facility). The interest rate on the U.S. revolving credit facility was 4.2% at October 1, 2011.
As of October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $2.6
million and $5.9 million, respectively, primarily for the purposes of securing collateral
requirements under the interest rate swap (which was terminated in March of 2011), casualty
insurance programs and for guaranteeing lease and certain other obligations.
On July 7, 2010, we reached an agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
successor by merger to Wachovia Bank, National Association, and the other signatories to our
existing U.S. revolving credit facility, dated August 4, 2006, as amended, to amend the terms
thereof. This amendment extended the date of final maturity of the facility to January 7, 2014 and
decreased the maximum availability under the agreement from $500 million to $400 million. This
amendment also includes an additional $100 million uncommitted accordion credit facility, which
will permit us to increase the maximum borrowing capacity up to $500 million. As a result of
reducing our maximum borrowing capacity from $500 million to $400 million, we recorded expense of
$0.2 million in fiscal 2010 for the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the reduction
in borrowing capacity. We also incurred $6.5 million in new debt issuance costs, which we
capitalized and will continue to amortize to interest expense over the renewed debt term.
On May 10, 2011, we entered into an amendment to our U.S. revolving credit facility, which
became effective on July 29, 2011, following the successful completion of the rights offering
described below. Certain components of the borrowing base calculation and excess liquidity
calculation were adjusted as part of this amendment. The most significant of the changes included
in the amendment are described in the discussion of the terms and covenants of the U.S. revolving
credit facility below.
As of October 1, 2011, under the amended agreement, our U.S. revolving credit facility
contains customary negative covenants and restrictions for asset based loans. Our most significant
covenant is a requirement that we maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0 in the event
our excess availability falls below the greater of $30 million or the amount equal to 15% of the
lesser of the borrowing base or $400 million (the Excess Availability Threshold). We are
required to maintain the Excess Availability Threshold in order to avoid being required to meet
certain financial ratios and triggering additional limits on capital expenditures. The amount of
our eligible accounts receivable included in the calculation of the borrowing base is 87.5%. Under
the amended U.S. revolving credit facility agreement, the applicable percentage of the net
liquidation value of our eligible inventory included in the calculation of the borrowing base is
90% for the periods January to March 2012 and January to March 2013, subject to specified EBITDA
targets. The percentage of the net liquidation value of our eligible inventory included in the
borrowing remains the same as under the original agreement outside of the time period just
specified. Also included in the calculation of our excess availability is certain cash on the
balance sheet, which is subject to a deposit account control agreement. The fixed charge coverage
ratio is calculated as EBITDA divided by the sum of cash payments for income taxes, interest
expense, cash dividends, principal payments on debt, and capital expenditures. EBITDA is defined
as BlueLinx Corporations net income before interest and tax expense, depreciation and amortization
expense, and other non-cash charges. The fixed charge coverage ratio requirement only applies to
us when excess availability under our amended U.S. revolving credit facility is less than the
Excess Availability Threshold on any date. As of October 1, 2011 and through the time of the filing
of this Form 10-Q, we were in compliance with all covenants. We had
$148.9 million and $103.4 million of
availability as of October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2011, respectively. Our lowest level of fiscal
month end availability in the last three years as of October 1, 2011 was $94.0 million. We do not
anticipate our excess availability in fiscal 2011 will drop below the Excess Availability
Threshold. Should our excess availability fall below the Excess Availability Threshold on any
date, however, we would not meet the required fixed charge coverage ratio with our current
operating results. In addition, we must maintain a springing lock-box arrangement where customer
remittances go directly to a lock-box maintained by our lenders and then are forwarded to our
general bank accounts. Our outstanding borrowings are not reduced by these payments unless our
excess availability
falls below the greater of $35 million or the amount equal to 15% of the lesser of the
borrowing base or $400 million on any date or in the event of default. Our amended U.S. revolving
credit facility does not contain a subjective acceleration clause which would allow our lenders to
accelerate the scheduled maturities of our debt or to cancel our agreement.
34
On July 22, 2011, we concluded an offering of our common stock to our stockholders, pursuant
to which we distributed to our common stockholders transferable rights to subscribe for and
purchase up to $60 million of our common stock. In conjunction with the rights offering, we
entered into an investment agreement with Cerberus ABP Investor LLC, which beneficially owned
approximately 55% of our common stock before giving effect to the rights offering, to backstop the
rights offering, subject to certain conditions, by purchasing shares of common stock that related
to any rights that remained unexercised at the expiration of the rights offering. The rights
offering was fully subscribed and as a result the backstop provisions with Cerberus were not
utilized. The rights offering resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $60 million. The
majority of the gross proceeds from the rights offering of approximately $56 million were used to
pay down the U.S. revolving credit facility. A payment on the U.S. revolving credit facility of
$50.0 million was made on July 29, 2011 and an additional payment of $6.0 million was made on
August 1, 2011. We accounted for the rights issued as a component of additional paid in capital as
they were indexed to the Companys equity and there were no net cash settlement provisions.
The amendment to our U.S. revolving credit facility, which was a condition to the rights
offering, became effective upon the successful completion of the rights offering. In addition, as
a condition to the rights offering, we entered into an amendment to our mortgage. The amendment to
the mortgage is described below.
On August 12, 2011, our subsidiary BlueLinx Canada entered into a
revolving credit agreement (the Canadian revolving credit facility) with CIBC Asset-Based Lending
Inc., as lender, administrative agent and collateral agent (the Agent). The maturity date of
this agreement is August 12, 2014. The Canadian revolving credit facility provides for an
asset-based revolving credit facility with an aggregate lender commitment of up to $10 million at
any time outstanding, subject to borrowing base availability. In addition, the Canadian revolving
credit facility provides for an additional $5 million uncommitted accordion credit facility.
Revolving loan (and letter of credit) availability under the facility is subject to a borrowing
base. The amount of our eligible Canadian accounts receivable included in the calculation of the
borrowing base is 85%. The amount of our eligible inventory included in the calculation of the
borrowing base is 65%. The sum of items included in the borrowing base is reduced by $0.5 million
(the availability block) and other availability reserves. In addition to paying interest on
outstanding principal under the facility, we are required to pay a fee in respect of committed but
unutilized commitments equal to 0.25% per annum. As of October 1, 2011, we had outstanding
borrowings of $2.8 million and excess availability of $1.8 million under the terms of our Canadian
revolving credit facility. The interest rate on the Canadian revolving credit facility was 4.0% at
October 1, 2011. The Canadian revolving credit facility contains customary covenants and events of
default for asset-based credit agreements of this type, including the requirement for BlueLinx
Canada to maintain a minimum adjusted tangible net worth of $3.9 million and
for that entitys capital expenditures not to exceed 120% of the amount budgeted in a given year.
As of October 1, 2011 and through the time of the filing of this Form 10-Q, we were in compliance
with all covenants.
We believe that the amounts available from our revolving credit facilities and other sources
are sufficient to fund our routine operations and capital requirements for the next 12 months. If
economic conditions, especially those related to the housing market, do not improve, we may need to
seek additional sources of capital to support our operations.
On July 14, 2011, we entered into an amendment to the mortgage which (i) eliminated the
requirement to obtain lender approval for any transfer of equity interests that would reduce
Cerberus ABP Investor LLCs ownership in the Company and certain of our subsidiaries, directly or
indirectly, to less than 51%, (ii) provided for the immediate prepayment of $38.3 million of the
indebtedness under the mortgage without incurring a prepayment premium from funds currently held as
collateral under the mortgage and, if certain conditions are met, will allow for an additional
prepayment on or after July 30, 2014 from funds held as collateral without incurrence of a
prepayment premium, (iii) allow us, at the lenders reasonable discretion, to use a portion of the
cash held as collateral under the mortgage for specified alterations, repairs, replacements and
other improvements to the mortgaged properties, and (iv) in the event certain financial conditions
are met and the Company extends the Amended and Restated Master Lease by and among certain of our
subsidiaries with respect to properties covered by the mortgage for an additional five years, we
may request the lenders to disburse to the Company a portion of the cash held as collateral under
the mortgage. In conjunction with the modification of our mortgage
agreement we incurred approximately $2.9 million in debt fees that
were capitalized and are being amortized over the remaining term of
the mortgage.
On June 12, 2006, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement with Goldman Sachs Capital
Markets, to hedge against interest rate risks related to our variable rate U.S. revolving credit
facility. The interest rate swap was terminated in March of 2011. The interest rate swap had a
notional amount of $150 million and the terms called for us to receive interest monthly at a
variable rate equal to 30-day LIBOR and to pay interest monthly at a fixed rate of 5.4%. This
interest rate swap was designated as a cash flow hedge.
During fiscal 2009, our debt levels decreased below the interest rate swap notional, at which
point the hedge became ineffective in offsetting future changes in expected cash flows during the
remaining term of the interest rate swap.
35
Changes associated with the ineffective interest rate swap recognized in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations for the period from January 1, 2011 to October 1, 2011 was approximately
$1.8 million of income and are comprised of amortization of the remaining accumulated other
comprehensive loss of the ineffective swap of $0.4 million offset by income of $2.2 million related
to reducing the fair value of the ineffective interest rate swap liability to zero. Due to the
termination of the swap in the first quarter of 2011, there was no activity for the quarter ended
October 1, 2011. Changes associated with the ineffective interest rate swap recognized in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the period from January 3, 2010 to October 2, 2010 were
approximately $3.2 million of income and are comprised of amortization of the remaining accumulated
other comprehensive loss over the life of the ineffective swap of $1.6 million offset by income of
$4.8 million related to current year changes in the fair value of the ineffective interest rate
swap liability. Changes associated with the ineffective interest rate swap recognized in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the period July 4, 2010 to October 2, 2010 were
approximately $1.2 million of income and are comprised of amortization of the remaining accumulated
other comprehensive loss over the life of the ineffective swap of $0.5 million offset by income of
$1.7 million related to current year changes in the fair value of the ineffective interest rate
swap liability. The fair value of our swap liability at January 1, 2011 was $2.2 million.

rate swap measured at fair value in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of July 2, 2011 (in

Contractual Obligations
As part of the amendment to our mortgage and U.S. revolving credit facility, described above,
payments of $38.3 million and approximately $56 million, respectively, were made in July 2011.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2011, we entered into an amendment to our corporate
headquarters lease in Atlanta, GA related to the unoccupied 4100 building. This amendment released
us from our obligations with respect to this unoccupied space as of January 31, 2012, in exchange
for a $5.0 million space remittance fee, due on or before that date. In addition, we are obligated
to pay $1.2 million on or before December 31, 2013 to be used for tenant improvements. The
provisions relating to the occupied 4300 building remain unchanged. Under the existing provisions,
the current term of the lease ends on January 31, 2019. The amendment resulted in a reduction of
our restructuring reserve of approximately $2.0 million, with the credit recorded in Selling,
general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Our three-year purchase agreement with Georgia-Pacific Wood Products LLC will expire on February 12, 2012 in
accordance with its terms. We plan to launch a complete line of privately branded engineered lumber products,
which we anticipate will be available beginning on February 13, 2012.
There have been no other material changes to our contractual obligations from those disclosed
in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2011.
Stock-Based Compensation
We have two stock-based compensation plans covering officers, directors, certain employees and
consultants: the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2004 Plan) and the 2006 Long Term Equity
Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan). The plans are designed to motivate and retain individuals who are
responsible for the attainment of our primary long-term performance goals. The plans provide a
means whereby our employees and directors develop a sense of proprietorship and personal
involvement in our development and financial success and encourage them to devote their best
efforts to our business. Although we do not have a formal policy on the matter, we issue new shares
of our common stock to participants, upon the exercise of options or granting of restricted stock,
out of the total amount of common shares authorized for issuance under the 2004 Plan and the 2006
Plan. During the first nine months of fiscal 2011, the Compensation Committee granted 618,972
restricted shares of our common stock to certain of our officers and directors. Restricted shares
of 364,303 vested in the first nine months of 2011 due to completion of the vesting term.
36
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make judgments and
estimates that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and

information provided in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January
1, 2011.

ITEM 4. |
|
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Our management performed an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report on
Form 10-Q, under the supervision of our chief executive officer 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) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange
Act)). Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules
and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management including our chief executive
officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period
covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect
our internal control over financial reporting.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
During the first nine months of fiscal 2011, there were no material changes to our previously
disclosed legal proceedings. Additionally, we are, and from time to time may be, a party to routine
legal proceedings incidental to the operation of our business. The outcome of any pending or
threatened proceedings is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition, operating results or cash flows, based on our current understanding of the relevant
facts. Legal expenses incurred related to these contingencies are generally expensed as incurred.
There has been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in our Annual
