NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PGT, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary (collectively the “Company”) after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. These statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the current year or for any future periods. Each of our Company’s fiscal quarters ended October 3, 2009 and September 27, 2008 consisted of 13 weeks.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 3, 2009 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. This condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 3, 2009 and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the more detailed audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 3, 2009 included in the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K. Accounting policies used in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K.

We have evaluated the condensed consolidated financial statements for subsequent events through November 12, 2009, the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q.

NOTE 2. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Acquisition

Pursuant to an asset purchase agreement by and between Hurricane Window and Door Factory, LLC (“Hurricane”) of Ft. Myers, Florida, and our operating subsidiary, PGT Industries, Inc., effective on August 14, 2009, we acquired certain operating assets of Hurricane for approximately $1.5 million in cash. Hurricane designed and manufactured high-end vinyl impact products for the single- and multi-family residential markets. The products provide long-term energy and structural benefits, while qualifying homeowners for the government’s energy tax credits through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. This product line was developed specifically for the hurricane protection market and combines some of the highest structural ratings in the industry with excellent energy efficiency. The acquisition of this business expands our presence in the energy efficient vinyl impact-resistant market, increases our ability to serve the multi-story condo market, and enhances our ability to offer a complete line of impact products to the customer.

The acquisition was accounted for as the purchase of a business in accordance with GAAP. The assets acquired included Hurricane’s inventory, comprised almost entirely of raw materials, and property and equipment, primarily comprised of machinery and other manufacturing equipment. We also acquired the right to use Hurricane’s design technology through the end of 2010 and the option to purchase the technology at any time through the end of 2010 and, if desired, we can extend the right to use and the option to purchase Hurricane’s design technology for an additional one year period through the end of 2011. The allocation of the $1.5 million cash purchase price to the fair value of the assets acquired as of the August 14, 2009 acquisition date is as follows:

Table of Contents

(in thousands)	Fair Values
Inventory	$	254
Property and equipment		623
Identifiable intangibles		575
Net assets acquired		1,452
Purchase price		1,452
Goodwill	$	-

The value of inventory was established based on then current purchase prices of identical materials available from Hurricane’s existing vendors. The value of property and equipment was established based on Hurricane’s net carrying values which we determined to approximate fair value due to, among other things, their having been in service for less than one year. We engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist us in estimating the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets consisting of the right to use Hurricane’s design technology and the related purchase option. The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets was estimated using an income approach based on projections provided by management, which we consider to be Level 3 inputs. The carrying value of the intangible assets of $0.6 million is included in other intangible assets, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at October 3, 2009. The intangible assets are being amortized on the straight-line basis over their estimated lives of approximately 1.3 years through the end of 2010. Amortization expense of less than $0.1 million is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended October 3, 2009. Acquisition costs of less than $0.1 million are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended October 3, 2009. Hurricane’s operating results prior to the acquisition and in the third quarter of 2009 were insignificant.

Restructurings

On January 13, 2009, March 11, 2009 and September 24, 2009, we announced further restructurings of the Company as a result of continued analysis of our target markets, internal structure, projected run-rate, and efficiency. The restructurings resulted in an aggregate decrease in our workforce of approximately 325 employees and included employees at both our Venice, Florida and Salisbury, North Carolina locations. As a result of the restructurings, we recorded restructuring charges totaling $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2009, of which $0.5 million is classified within cost of goods sold and $0.4 million is classified within selling, general and administrative expenses, and $3.9 million in the first nine months of 2009, of which $1.9 million is classified within cost of sales and $2.0 million is classified within selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2009. The charges related primarily to employee separation costs.

The total costs incurred for the restructurings in 2008 and 2007 were $2.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

NOTE 3. WARRANTY

We have warranty obligations with respect to most of our manufactured products. Warranty periods, which vary by product component, generally range from 1 to 10 years. However, the majority of the products sold have warranties on components which range from 1 to 3 years. The reserve for warranties is based on management’s assessment of the cost per service call and the number of service calls expected to be incurred to satisfy warranty obligations on recorded net sales. The reserve is determined after assessing our warranty history and estimating our future warranty obligations.

The following table provides information with respect to our warranty accrual:


	Beginning		Charged to								End of
Accrued Warranty	of Period		Expense		Adjustments			Settlements			Period

NOTE 4. INVENTORIES

Inventories consist principally of raw materials purchased for the manufacture of our products. We have limited finished goods inventory since all products are custom, made-to-order products and usually ship upon completion. Finished goods inventory costs include direct materials, direct labor, and overhead. All inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market value. Inventories consisted of the following at:


	October 3,		January 3,
	2009		2009
	(in thousands)

Finished goods	$	1,383	$	905
Work in progress		217		342
Raw materials		9,636		8,194

Inventories	$	11,236	$	9,441

NOTE 5. STOCK COMPENSATION EXPENSE

We record compensation expense over an award’s vesting period based on the award’s fair value at the date of grant. We recorded compensation expense for stock based awards of less than $0.1 million for the third quarter of 2009 and $0.2 million for the third quarter of 2008. We recorded compensation expense for stock based awards of $0.4 million for the first nine months of 2009 and $0.6 million for the first nine months of 2008. As of October 3, 2009, there was $0.2 million and $0.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock option agreements and non-vested restricted share awards, respectively. These costs are expected to be recognized in earnings on a straight-line basis over the weighted average remaining vesting period of 1.6 years.

NOTE 6. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents.

Due to the net losses in all periods presented herein, the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation plans is anti-dilutive. There were shares of common stock of 1,357,230 for the third quarter and 1,690,184 for the first nine months of 2009 relating to stock option agreements excluded from the computation of diluted EPS in each period as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

The table below presents the calculation of EPS and a reconciliation of weighted average common shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS for our Company:

Indefinite Lived Intangible Asset

The impairment evaluation for indefinite lived intangible assets, which for the Company are its trademarks, is conducted at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset might be impaired. The determination of fair value used in the impairment evaluation is based on discounted estimates of future projected cost savings attributable to ownership of the trademarks. The assumptions used in the estimate of fair value are generally consistent with past performance and are also consistent with the projections and assumptions used in current operating plans. Such assumptions are subject to change as a result of changing economic and competitive conditions. The determination of fair value is highly sensitive to changes in estimated future cash flows and changes in the discount rate used to evaluate the fair value of the trademarks. Estimated cash flows are sensitive to changes in the Florida housing market and changes in the economy, among other things. The discount rate is sensitive to changes in interest rates and, among other things, company-specific and other risk factors.

- 10 -

Table of Contents

As a result of impairment indicators related to the weakness in the housing market we identified during the second quarter of 2008, the Company evaluated its trademarks for impairment and compared the estimated fair value of its trademarks to their carrying value and preliminarily determined that there was no impairment. During the third quarter of 2008, as part of finalizing its second quarter impairment tests, the Company made certain changes to its projections that affected the previous estimate of fair value and, when compared to the carrying value of indefinite lived intangibles, resulted in a $0.3 million impairment charge in the third quarter of 2008. We performed our annual assessment of our trademarks as of January 3, 2009. Given a further decline in housing starts and the overall tightening of the credit markets, our revised forecasts indicated additional impairment was present, resulting in an additional impairment charge of $17.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. Due to the prolonged and continued challenging economic factors impacting the housing industry and our recent actual results, we evaluated our trademarks for impairment as of October 3, 2009 and determined that there was no impairment. Intangible assets not subject to amortization totalled $44.4 million at October 3, 2009. We will continue to evaluate the recoverability of our trademarks as continued declines in housing activity could result in additional impairment.

Amortizable Intangible Asset

As a result of the impairment indicators described above, during the second quarter of 2008 and again as of January 3, 2009 and October 3, 2009, we tested our customer relationships intangible asset for impairment by comparing the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group containing this asset to its carrying value and determined that there was no impairment. We will continue to evaluate the recoverability of our customer relationships intangible asset as continued declines in housing activity could result in additional impairment.

NOTE 8. LONG-TERM DEBT

On February 14, 2006, we entered into a second amended and restated $235 million senior secured credit facility and a $115 million second lien term loan due August 14, 2012, with a syndicate of banks. The senior secured credit facility is composed of a $30 million revolving credit facility and, initially, a $205 million first lien term loan. The second lien term loan was fully repaid with proceeds from our IPO in 2006. The outstanding balance of the first lien term loan on October 3, 2009 was $70.0 million, a decrease of $20.0 million since the beginning of 2009 due to the prepayments as discussed below.

On April 30, 2008, we announced that we entered into an amendment to the credit agreement. The amendment, among other things, relaxed certain financial covenants through the first quarter of 2010, increased the applicable rate on loans and letters of credit, and set a LIBOR floor. The effectiveness of the amendment was conditioned, among other things, on the repayment of at least $30 million of loans under the credit agreement no later than August 14, 2008, of which no more than $15 million was permitted to come from cash on hand. In June 2008, the Company used cash generated from operations to prepay $10 million of outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement.

On August 1, 2008, the Company filed Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on March 28, 2008 relating to a previously announced offering of rights to purchase 7,082,687 shares of the Company’s common stock with an aggregate value of approximately $30 million. The registration statement relating to the rights offering was declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on August 4, 2008, and the Company distributed to each holder of record of the Company’s common stock as of close of business on August 4, 2008, at no charge, one non-transferable subscription right for every four shares of common stock held by such holder under the basic subscription privilege. Each whole subscription right entitled its holder to purchase one share of PGT’s common stock at the subscription price of $4.20 per share. The rights offering expired on September 4, 2008.

The rights offering was fully subscribed resulting in the Company distributing all 7,082,687 shares of its common stock available. Net proceeds of $29.3 million from the rights offering were used to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under our amended credit agreement.

- 11 -

Table of Contents

Using proceeds from the rights offering, the Company made an additional prepayment of $20 million on August 11, 2008, bringing total prepayments of debt at that time to $30 million as required under the amended credit agreement. Having made the total required prepayment and having satisfied all other conditions to bring the amendment into effect, including the payment of the fees and expenses of the administrative agent and a consent fee to participating lenders of 25 basis points of the then outstanding balance under the credit agreement of $100 million, the amendment became effective on August 11, 2008. Fees paid to the administrative agent and lenders totaled $0.6 million and have been deferred, and the unamortized balance of $0.3 million is included in other assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 3, 2009. Such fees are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the remaining term of the credit agreement.

Under the amendment, the first lien term loan bears interest at a rate equal to an adjusted LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 3.5% per annum to 5% per annum or a base rate plus a margin ranging from 2.5% per annum to 4.0% per annum, at our option. The margin in either case is dependent on our leverage ratio. The loans under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate equal to an adjusted LIBOR rate plus a margin depending on our leverage ratio ranging from 3.0% per annum to 4.75% per annum or a base rate plus a margin ranging from 2.0% per annum to 3.75% per annum, at our option. The amendment established a floor of 3.25% for adjusted LIBOR.

A commitment fee equal to 0.50% per annum accrues on the average daily unused amount of the commitment of each lender under the revolving credit facility and such fee is payable quarterly in arrears. We are also required to pay certain other fees with respect to the senior secured credit facility including (i) letter of credit fees on the aggregate undrawn amount of outstanding letters of credit plus the aggregate principal amount of all letter of credit reimbursement obligations, (ii) a fronting fee to the letter of credit issuing bank and (iii) administrative fees.

The first lien term loan is secured by a perfected first priority pledge of all of the equity interests of our subsidiary and perfected first priority security interests in and mortgages on substantially all of our tangible and intangible assets subject to such exceptions as are agreed. The senior secured credit facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability and the ability of our subsidiary to (i) dispose of assets; (ii) change our business; (iii) engage in mergers or consolidations; (iv) make certain acquisitions; (v) pay dividends; (vi) incur indebtedness or guarantee obligations and issue preferred and other disqualified stock; (vii) make investments and loans; (viii) incur liens; (ix) engage in certain transactions with affiliates; (x) enter into sale and leaseback transactions; (xi) issue stock or stock options under certain conditions; (xii) amend or prepay subordinated indebtedness and loans under the second lien secured credit facility; (xiii) modify or waive material documents; or (xiv) change our fiscal year. In addition, under the senior secured credit facility, we are required to comply with specified financial ratios and tests, including a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio, and maximum capital expenditures.

Contractual future maturities of long-term debt and capital leases as of October 3, 2009 are as follows (in thousands):

Remainder of 2009	$	25
2010		288
2011		842
2012		69,138

Total	$	70,293

During June 2009, we prepaid $8.0 million of long-term debt using cash generated from operations during the second quarter of 2009 and cash on hand. During September 2009, we prepaid $12.0 million of long-term debt from cash on hand but also cash generated from operations during the third quarter of 2009. During 2008, we prepaid $40.0 million of long-term debt with cash generated from operations and the net proceeds of the rights offering, which totaled $29.3 million.

Under our credit agreement, as amended, our Company is required to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants, one of which requires our Company to maintain a total leverage ratio of not greater than certain predetermined amounts. As discussed above, we made a $12.0 million prepayment of outstanding bank debt and we were in compliance with all covenants required by our credit agreement, as amended, as of October 3, 2009.

As of October 3, 2009, there was $26.0 million available under our $30.0 million revolving credit facility. However, on October 6, 2009, after the close of the 2009 third quarter, we drew down $12.0 million under the revolving credit facility for working capital and general corporate purposes, including growth initiatives such as new product offerings and our expanding presence in the vinyl impact-resistant market. Borrowings under our revolving credit facility have a future contractual maturity in February 2011.

As a result of the draw-down under the revolving credit facility, and based on management’s current forecasts of profitability for the fourth quarter of 2009, we expect to be required to make an additional debt repayment before the end of our 2009 fiscal year, which ends on January 2, 2010. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we estimate that we will have adequate cash on hand to make any required debt repayment and maintain compliance with the maximum allowed leverage ratio for the fourth quarter of 2009 as defined in our credit agreement, as amended. However, we have continued to experience a significant deterioration in the various markets in which we compete. Any further deterioration in these markets may adversely impact our ability to meet our leverage ratio in the fourth quarter of 2009. We will continue to evaluate what action, if any, might be necessary to maintain compliance with our financial covenants, including further cost saving actions and raising additional capital.

On an annual basis, our Company is required to compute excess cash flow, as defined in our credit and security agreement with the bank. In periods where there is excess cash flow, our Company is required to make prepayments in an aggregate principal amount determined through reference to a grid based on the leverage ratio. No such prepayments were required for the year ended January 3, 2009 or the nine months ended October 3, 2009.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

Our Company is a party to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate disposition of those proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the outcome of any claim that is pending or threatened, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a materially adverse effect on our operations, financial position or cash flows.

NOTE 11. INCOME TAXES

No liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits were recognized in conjunction with our FIN 48 implementation, and there have been no changes to our unrecognized tax benefits. However, should we accrue for such liabilities if they arise in the future, we will recognize interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of our income tax provision.

In 2008, we established a valuation allowance to reduce to zero our net deferred tax assets, excluding the $17.3 million deferred tax liability related to trademarks. Driven by the goodwill and other intangible impairment charges recorded in 2008 totalling $187.7 million, our cumulative losses over the last three fiscal years, as well as the significant downturn in our primary industry of home construction, we concluded that sufficient negative evidence existed that it was deemed more likely than not that future taxable income will not be sufficient to realize the related income tax benefits. Of the $8.3 million valuation allowance at October 3, 2009, less than $0.1 million was allocated to accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at that date to offset the tax benefit that is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

We had an effective tax rate of a benefit of 5.1% for the third quarter and a benefit of 1.8% for the nine months of 2009. The benefits result from certain adjustments relating to the amendment of a prior year tax return. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities during the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 were offset by changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Excluding the change in the valuation allowance, the effective tax rates in the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 would have been 42.5% and 38.0%, respectively.

We had an effective tax rate of 23.6% for the third quarter and 14.7% for the first nine months of 2008. Excluding the deferred tax benefits totaling $0.3 million related to the $1.6 million of impairment charges recorded in the quarter and $13.8 million related to the $93.6 million of impairment charges and a $0.1 million valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets for North Carolina state tax credits recorded in the nine months ended September 29, 2008, we would have had an effective tax rate of 36.5% for the quarter and 36.4% for the first nine months ended September 27, 2008.

NOTE 12. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments, not including derivative financial instruments discussed below, include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and capital leases whose carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. Our financial instruments also include long-term debt. Based on bid prices for prices for our debt, the fair value of our long-term debt was approximately $51 million at October 3, 2009 and $63 million at January 3, 2009.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We enter into aluminum forward contracts to hedge fluctuations in the purchase price of aluminum extrusion we use in production. At October 3, 2009, we had 36 outstanding forward contracts for the purchase of 7.3 million pounds of aluminum at an average price of $0.94 per pound with maturity dates of between one month and fifteen months through December 2010. These contracts are designated as cash flow hedges since they are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flow attributable to forecasted purchases of aluminum. These aluminum hedges were in a net liability position at October 3, 2009 and had fair values totaling $0.8 million. We maintain a line of credit of $0.4 million with our commodities broker to cover the liability position of open contracts for the purchase of aluminum in the event that the price of aluminum falls. Should the price of aluminum fall to a level which causes our liability for open aluminum contracts to exceed $0.4 million, we must fund daily margin calls to cover the excess. We entered into a master netting arrangement (MNA) with our commodities broker that provides for, among other things, the immediate close-out netting of exchange-traded transactions in the event of our failure to make any required contract payments or upon the commencement of insolvency proceedings, voluntary or otherwise.

- 15 -

Table of Contents

As of October 3, 2009, we had $0.4 million of cash on deposit with our commodities broker related to funding of margin calls on open forward contracts for the purchase of aluminum in a liability position. We net cash collateral from payments of margin calls on deposit with our commodities broker against the liability position of open contracts for the purchase of aluminum on a first-in, first-out basis. For statement of cash flows presentation, we present net cash receipts from and payments to the margin account as investing activities.

The fair value of our aluminum hedges are classified in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as follows (in thousands):


		October 3,			January 3,
		2009			2009

Derivatives in a net liability position	Balance Sheet Location
Hedging instruments:
Aluminum forward contracts	Accrued liabilities	$	(657	)	$	(3,251	)

Cash on deposit related to payments of margin calls	Other liabilities		-			847

Total hedging instruments		$	(401	)	$	(138	)

Our aluminum hedges qualify as highly effective for reporting purposes. Effectiveness of aluminum forward contracts is determined by comparing the change in the fair value of the forward contract to the change in the expected cash to be paid for aluminum extrusion. At October 3, 2009, these contracts were designated as effective. The effective portion of the gain or loss on our aluminum forward contracts is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the same line item in the income statement as the hedged item in the same period or periods during which the transaction affects earnings. For the three and nine months ended October 3, 2009 and September 27, 2008, there were no amounts reclassified to earnings due to a forecasted transaction being deemed improbable of occurring. The ending accumulated balance for the aluminum forward contracts included in accumulated other comprehensive loss is $0.8 million ($0.6 million net of tax effects) as of October 3, 2009, of which $0.7 million is expected to be reclassified to earnings in the next twelve months based on scheduled settlement dates of the related contracts. The following represents the gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2009 and September 27, 2008, and their classifications within the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements (in thousands):

NOTE 13. RECENTLY ADOPTED AND ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the FASB issued guidance under the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic of the Codification which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. We partially adopted the guidance on January 1, 2008, as required for our financial assets and financial liabilities. However, the FASB deferred the effective date of the guidance for one year as it relates to fair value measurement requirements for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis. We adopted these remaining provisions of the guidance on January 4, 2009. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The guidance under the Business Combinations topic of the Codification was issued in December 2007. The guidance establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. It also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The guidance was effective for us in our fiscal year beginning January 4, 2009. We applied the provisions of the guidance to a recent acquisition and will apply the provisions to future acquisitions, if any. See Note 2.

In March 2008, the FASB issued guidance under the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the Codification. The guidance requires entities that utilize derivative instruments to provide qualitative disclosures about their objectives and strategies for using such instruments, as well as any details of credit-risk-related contingent features contained within derivatives. It also requires entities to disclose additional information about the amounts and location of derivatives located within the financial statements, how the provisions of the guidance have been applied, and the impact that hedges have on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The guidance was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. We adopted the guidance effective on January 4, 2009 and have provided the required information in Note 12.

In April 2008, the FASB issued guidance under the Intangibles – Goodwill and Other topic of the Codification which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. The guidance was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted the guidance effective on January 4, 2009 with no impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance under the Subsequent Events topic of the Codification. The guidance establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. We adopted the guidance during the second quarter of 2009 on a prospective basis. The adoption did not materially impact our consolidated financial statements. See Note 1 for our evaluation of subsequent events.

In April 2009, the FASB issued guidance under the Financial Instruments topic of the Codification that is intended to provide additional application guidance and enhance disclosures about fair value measurements and impairments of securities. The guidance clarifies the objective and method of fair value measurement even when there has been a significant decrease in market activity for the asset being measured and establishes a new model for measuring other-than-temporary impairments for debt securities, including establishing criteria for when to recognize a write-down through earnings versus other comprehensive income. The guidance expands the fair value disclosures required for all financial instruments to interim periods. The adoption of the guidance did not impact our consolidated financial statements but rather resulted in increased interim disclosures related to our financial instruments.

In June 2009, the FASB announced that the FASB Accounting Standards Codification was the new source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB for nongovernmental entities. On the effective date of this guidance, the Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. This guidance became effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of these provisions during the current quarter did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 14. COLLABORATIVE ARRANGEMENT

In view of the risks and costs associated with developing new products and our desire to expand our markets by providing quality unitized curtain wall solutions to the commercial building industry, we entered into a collaborative arrangement with another company with extensive experience in sales, marketing, engineering and project management of unitized curtain wall solutions and in which costs, revenues and risks are shared. During the third quarter of 2009, this arrangement was terminated. We were not the principal participant in this arrangement. Our obligation under this arrangement was to provide manufacturing expertise, including providing the operating entity with labor for assembly and fabrication of the unitized curtain wall units. We earned revenues and incurred costs of sales and expenses from this activity based on the number of hours of labor provided in the production of materials used in the arrangement. We also recorded a percentage of the joint operating activity’s profit or loss into revenue based on our percentage interest in the arrangement, which was insignificant in the third quarter and first nine months of 2009. Each collaborator’s interest was 50 percent.

The following table illustrates the income statement classification and amounts attributable to transactions arising from the collaborative arrangements between participants for each period presented (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended					Nine Months Ended
	October 3,		September 27,			October 3,			September 27,

Cost of sales		-		(581	)		(1,093	)		(581	)
Selling, general and administrative		-		(33	)		(215	)		(33	)

In November 2007, the EITF issued guidance under the Broad Transactions – Collaborative Arrangements topic of the Codification. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and must be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented for all collaborative arrangements existing as of the effective date. This Issue requires that participants in a collaborative arrangement report costs incurred and revenues generated on a gross or net basis and in the appropriate line items in each company’s financial statements. This guidance also requires disclosure of the nature and purpose of the participant’s collaborative arrangements, the participant’s rights and obligations under these arrangements, the accounting policy for collaborative arrangements, the income statement classification and amounts attributable to transactions arising from collaboration arrangements between participants, and the disclosure related to individually significant collaborative arrangements. We adopted the guidance in the second quarter of 2008.

NOTE 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

In the fourth quarter of 2009, we implemented a restructuring of the Company as a result of continued analysis of our target markets, internal structure, projected run-rate, and efficiency. The restructuring resulted in a decrease in our workforce of approximately 150 employees and included employees in both Florida and North Carolina. As a result of the restructuring, we expect to record an estimated restructuring charge of approximately $1.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. No amounts related to this restructuring have been accrued in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine month periods ended October 3, 2009.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended January 3, 2009 included in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This document includes forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, our financial condition and business strategy. Forward-looking statements provide our current expectations and projections about future events. Forward-looking statements include statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions, and other statements that are not historical facts. As a result, all statements other than statements of historical facts included in this discussion and analysis and located elsewhere in this document regarding the prospects of our industry and our prospects, plans, financial position, and business strategy may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “could,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “foresee,” “believe,” or “continue,” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on potentially inaccurate assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected or implied by the forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that these expectations will occur as predicted. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this document. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect circumstances or events after the date of this report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as may be required by applicable securities laws.

Risks associated with our business, an investment in our securities, and with achieving the forward-looking statements contained in this report or in our news releases, Web sites, public filings, investor and analyst conferences or elsewhere, include, but are not limited to, the risk factors described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any of the risk factors described therein could cause our actual results to differ materially from expectations and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. We may not succeed in addressing these challenges and risks.

Current Operating Conditions and Outlook

In the third quarter of 2009, new housing permits in Florida decreased 42% compared to the third quarter of 2008, but were up 10% from the second quarter of 2009. Recently there have been signs that there is a recovery in the homebuilding industry taking place, but the recovery continues to be hampered by other economic factors. In Florida, home sales increased 34% in September compared to the prior month as a more confident home buyer moved to take advantage of sales incentives, improved affordability and tax breaks. However, the ongoing impact of increased foreclosures and mortgage delinquencies, higher unemployment and tight credit standards make predicting the timing and extent of a turn-around, or even stability, difficult. Several of the nation’s largest home builders continued to report increases in new home orders and decreases in cancellation rates during the third quarter, but these improvements have not yet reversed the trend of steadily declining sales in the homebuilding industry.

Difficult economic conditions persisted in the United States during the third quarter of 2009, and the housing industry, most notably in the Company’s primary market of Florida, has been in a period of prolonged deterioration. These conditions may persist and remain depressed for the foreseeable future. Economic conditions have been negatively impacted by slowing growth and the mortgage crisis ultimately causing liquidity and credit concerns. Continuing adverse economic conditions in our markets could negatively impact our business, which could result in reduced demand for our products, increased price competition, increased risk in the collectability of cash from our customers potentially resulting in increased reserves for doubtful accounts and write-offs of accounts receivable, and higher operating costs. If economic conditions deteriorate further, we may experience adverse impacts on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Table of Contents

In response to the deterioration in the housing market, we have taken a number of steps to enhance profitability and conserve capital. As discussed in “Recent Developments – Restructurings” below, we adjusted our operating cost structure to more closely align with current demand. In addition, we decreased our capital spending in 2008 and have further restricted capital spending in the first nine months of 2009. However, we also view this market downturn as an opportunity to gain market share from our competitors. For instance, as discussed in “Recent Developments – Acquisition” below, we acquired certain operating assets and the exclusive right to use the technology of Hurricane Window and Door Factory (“Hurricane”), a former manufacturer of energy efficient vinyl impact resistant windows and doors. We acquired Hurricane to give us an expanded presence in the energy-efficient vinyl impact resistant marketplace and position us for growth. We increased marketing and sales efforts in areas outside of our dominant markets, including northern Florida, the Gulf Coast and the Carolinas and other southeastern states resulting in incremental sales outside of Florida compared to last year. Also, we introduced new products in 2009 and expanded product lines to broaden our product offering. As a result of these actions, we continue to outperform the underlying market. However, gross margins have declined to 26.1% in the third quarter of 2009 from 29.8% in the third quarter of 2008, and to 27.2% in the first nine months of 2009 from 31.8% in the first nine months of 2008 due, mainly, to the impact of the loss of operating leverage against fixed costs from a decline in sales and restructuring costs.

While the homebuilding industry is in a down cycle, we still believe the long-term outlook for the industry is positive. At this point, it appears as though the housing market has not yet hit bottom. Despite these unfavorable market conditions, we still believe that, in the long-term, we can grow organically by gaining market share and outperforming our underlying markets. However, we believe difficult market conditions affecting our business will continue, and the recent downturn in the economy as a result of the mortgage crisis may further negatively affect our operating results and year-over-year comparisons.

Recent Developments

Acquisition

Pursuant to an asset purchase agreement by and between Hurricane Window and Door Factory, LLC (“Hurricane”) of Ft. Myers, Florida, and our operating subsidiary, PGT Industries, Inc., effective on August 14, 2009, we acquired certain operating assets of Hurricane, for approximately $1.5 million in cash. Hurricane designed and manufactured high-end vinyl impact products for the single- and multi-family residential markets. The products provide long-term energy and structural benefits, while qualifying homeowners for the government’s energy tax credits through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. This product line was developed specifically for the hurricane protection market and combines some of the highest structural ratings in the industry with excellent energy efficiency. The acquisition of this business expands our presence in the energy efficient vinyl impact-resistant market, increases our ability to serve the multi-story condo market, and enhances our ability to offer a complete line of impact products to the customer.

The value of inventory was established based on then current purchase prices of identical materials available from Hurricane’s existing vendors. The value of property and equipment was established based on Hurricane’s net carrying values which we determined to approximate fair value due to, among other things, their having been in service for less than one year. We engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist us in estimating the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets consisting of the right to use Hurricane’s design technology and the related purchase option. The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets was estimated using an income approach based on projections provided by management, which we consider to be Level 3 inputs. The carrying value of the intangible asset of $0.6 million is included in other intangible assets, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at October 3, 2009. The intangible assets are being amortized on the straight-line basis over their estimated lives of approximately 1.3 years through the end of 2010. Amortization expense of less than $0.1 million is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended October 3, 2009. Acquisition costs of less than $0.1 million are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended October 3, 2009. Hurricane’s operating results prior to the acquisition and in the third quarter of 2009 were insignificant.

Restructurings

Other Developments

Indefinite Lived Intangible Asset

As a result of impairment indicators related to the weakness in the housing market we identified during the second quarter of 2008, the Company evaluated its trademarks for impairment and compared the estimated fair value of its trademarks to their carrying value and preliminarily determined that there was no impairment. During the third quarter of 2008, as part of finalizing its second quarter impairment tests, the Company made certain changes to its projections that affected the previous estimate of fair value and, when compared to the carrying value of indefinite lived intangibles, resulted in a $0.3 million impairment charge in the third quarter of 2008. We performed our annual assessment of our trademarks as of January 3, 2009. Given a further decline in housing starts and the overall tightening of the credit markets, our revised forecasts indicated additional impairment was present, resulting in an additional impairment charge of $17.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. Due to the prolonged and continued challenging economic factors impacting the housing industry and our recent actual results, we evaluated our trademarks for impairment as of October 3, 2009 and determined that there was no impairment. Intangible assets not subject to amortization totaled $44.4 million at October 3, 2009. We will continue to evaluate the recoverability of our trademarks as continued declines in housing activity could result in additional impairment.

Amortizable Intangible Asset

Effective August 14, 2009, we acquired certain operating assets of Hurricane. In addition to Hurricane’s inventory and property and equipment, we also acquired the right to use Hurricane’s design technology through the end of 2010, including the option to purchase the technology at any time through the end of 2010. We engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist us in estimating the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets consisting of the right to use Hurricane’s design technology and the related purchase option, which was determined to total $0.6 million at the date of the acquisition. The carrying value of the intangible assets of $0.6 million is included in other intangible assets, net, in the accompanying condense consolidated balance sheet at October 3, 2009. The intangible assets are being amortized on the straight-line basis over their estimated lives of approximately 1.3 years through the end of 2010. Amortization expense of less than $0.1 million is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended October 3, 2009.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 3, 2009 AND SEPTEMBER 27, 2008

Net sales

Net sales decreased $12.7 million, or 23.4%, in the third quarter of 2009, compared to the 2008 third quarter. Net sales for the third quarter of 2009 were $41.6 million, compared with net sales of $54.3 million for the third quarter of 2008. The following table shows net sales classified by major product category (sales in millions):

	Three Months Ended
	October 3, 2009					September 27, 2008
	Sales		% of sales			Sales		% of sales		% change
Product category:
WinGuard Windows and Doors	$	26.2		63.0%		$	37.7		69.4%		(30.5%)
Other Window and Door Products		15.4		37.0%	%		16.6		30.6%		(7.2%)

Total net sales	$	41.6		100.0%		$	54.3		100.0%		(23.4%)

Net sales of WinGuard branded products were $26.2 million for the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of $11.5 million, or 30.5%, from $37.7 million in net sales for the 2008 third quarter. The decrease in sales of our WinGuard branded products was driven mainly by the decline in new home and repair and remodeling construction, but also, to some extent, by the lack of storm activity during the three most recent hurricane seasons in the coastal markets of Florida served by the Company.

Net sales of Other Window and Door Products were $15.4 million for the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 7.2%, from $16.6 million in net sales for the 2008 third quarter. The decrease was mainly due to the decline in the housing industry, partially offset by increases due to new product introductions, the sales related to unitized curtain wall, and increased sales in markets outside of the state of Florida.

Gross margin

Gross margin was $10.9 million, or 26.1% of sales, for the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of $5.3 million, or 32.9%, from $16.2 million, or 29.8% of sales, for the third quarter of 2008. This decrease was largely due to lower sales volumes of most of our products and the resulting loss of operating leverage against fixed costs, a change in mix and slight decrease in pricing, partially offset by spending reductions as a result of our cost savings initiatives. There were restructuring charges in cost of goods sold in the third quarter of 2009 $0.5 million. Adjusting for these charges, gross margin was $11.4 million, or 27.4% of sales, for the third quarter of 2009.

Impairment Charges

During the second quarter of 2008, the Company concluded that the weakness in the housing sector was likely to persist longer than previously anticipated by the Company based on its review of, among other things, sequential quarter housing starts in the second quarter of 2008 compared to the first quarter of 2008, the then recent turmoil surrounding the nation’s largest mortgage lenders and the resulting negative impact on the availability of mortgage financing and housing start forecasts published by national home builder associations pushing recovery in the new home construction market further out. The Company then concluded that this weakness in the housing market resulted in the prolonged decline in its market capitalization as compared to its then book value.

As a result of those impairment indicators, the Company updated the first step of its goodwill impairment test and determined that its carrying value exceeded its fair value, indicating that goodwill was impaired. Having determined that goodwill was impaired, we began performing the second step of the goodwill impairment test which involved calculating the implied fair value of our goodwill by allocating the fair value of the Company to all of our assets and liabilities other than goodwill (including both recognized and unrecognized intangible assets) and comparing it to the then carrying amount of goodwill. As of the date of the filing of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 28, 2008, the Company estimated that the implied fair value of our goodwill was less than its carrying value by approximately $92.0 million, which the Company recognized as a goodwill impairment charge in the second quarter ended June 28, 2008. We completed our impairment test in the third quarter of 2008, which resulted in an additional non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $1.3 million.

Table of Contents

During the second quarter of 2008, also as a result of the impairment indicators described above, the Company evaluated its intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment and compared the estimated fair value of its trademarks to their carrying value and preliminarily determined that there was no impairment. During the third quarter of 2008, as part of finalizing the goodwill impairment test discussed above, the Company made certain changes to its projections that affected the previous estimate of fair value and, when compared to the carrying value of indefinite lived intangibles, resulted in a $0.3 million impairment charge in the third quarter of 2008.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $12.6 million for the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of $1.8 million, from $14.5 million for the 2008 third quarter. There were restructuring charges in selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2009 of $0.4 million. Adjusting for these charges, selling, general and administrative expenses were $12.2 million for the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of $2.3 million. This decrease was mainly due to a $1.4 million decrease in personnel related costs as the result of the cost saving actions, a $0.5 million decrease in fuel costs and approximately $0.6 million of overall lower spending in other categories. These cost savings were partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in bad debt expense. As a percentage of sales, adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses were 29.5% the third quarter of 2009, compared to 26.6% for the third quarter of 2008, mainly due to the loss of leverage from the decrease in sales.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net was $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of $0.5 million, from $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2008. The decrease was due to a lower level of debt during the third quarter of 2009 compared to the third quarter of 2008, partially offset by a higher interest rate on our debt during the third quarter of 2009 compared to the third quarter of 2008.

Other expense (income), net

There was other expense of less than $0.1 million in both the third quarters of 2009 and 2008. The amounts in each quarter relate to the ineffective portions of aluminum hedges.

Income tax benefit

We had an effective tax rate of a benefit of 5.1% for the third quarter of 2009. The benefit results from certain adjustments relating to the amendment of a prior year tax return. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities during the third quarter of 2009 were offset by changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Excluding the change in the valuation allowance, the effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2009 would have been a tax benefit of 42.5%.

We had an effective tax rate of a benefit of 23.6% for the third quarter of 2008. Excluding deferred tax benefits totaling $0.3 million related to the $1.6 million of impairment charges recorded in the quarter, we would have had an effective tax rate of 36.5% for the third quarter of 2008.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR FIRST NINE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 3, 2009 AND SEPTEMBER 27, 2008

Net sales

Net sales decreased $39.3 million, or 23.2%, in the first nine months of 2009, compared to the first nine months of 2008. Net sales for the first nine months of 2009 were $130.0 million, compared with net sales of $169.3 million for the first nine months of 2008. The following table shows net sales classified by major product category (sales in millions):

	Nine Months Ended
	October 3, 2009				September 27, 2008
	Sales		% of sales		Sales		% of sales		% change
Product category:
WinGuard Windows and Doors	$	86.2		66.3%	$	118.2		69.8%		(27.1%)
Other Window and Door Products		43.8		33.7%		51.1		30.2%		(14.3%)

Total net sales	$	130.0		100.0%	$	169.3		100.0%		(23.2%)

Net sales of WinGuard branded products were $86.2 million for the first nine months of 2009, a decrease of $32.0 million, or 27.1%, from $118.2 million in net sales for the first nine months of 2008. The decrease in sales of our WinGuard branded products was driven mainly by the decline in new home and repair and remodeling construction, but also, to some extent, by the lack of storm activity during the three most recent hurricane seasons in the coastal markets of Florida served by the Company.

Net sales of Other Window and Door Products were $43.8 million for the first nine months of 2009, a decrease of $7.3 million, or 14.3%, from $51.1 million in net sales for the first nine months of 2008. The decrease was mainly due to the decline in the housing industry, partially offset by increases due to new product introductions, the sales related to unitized curtain wall, and increased sales in markets outside of the state of Florida.

Gross margin

Gross margin was $35.4 million, or 27.2% of sales, for the first nine months of 2009, a decrease of $18.4 million, or 34.2%, from $53.8 million, or 31.8% of sales, for the first nine months of 2008. This decrease was largely due to lower sales volumes of most of our products and the resulting loss of operating leverage against fixed costs, a change in mix and slight decrease in pricing, partially offset by spending reductions as a result of our cost savings initiatives. There were restructuring charges in cost of goods sold in each period of $1.9 million in the first nine months of 2009 and $1.1 million in the first nine months of 2008. Adjusting for these charges, gross margin was $37.3 million, or 28.7% of sales, for the first nine months of 2009, compared to $54.8 million, or 32.4% of sales, for the first nine months of 2008, mainly due to the loss of leverage from the decrease in sales.

As a result of those impairment indicators, the Company updated the first step of its goodwill impairment test and determined that its carrying value exceeded its fair value, indicating that goodwill was impaired. Having determined that goodwill was impaired, we began performing the second step of the goodwill impairment test which involved calculating the implied fair value of our goodwill by allocating the fair value of the Company to all of our assets and liabilities other than goodwill (including both recognized and unrecognized intangible assets) and comparing it to the then carrying amount of goodwill. As of the date of the filing of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 28, 2008, the Company estimated that the implied fair value of our goodwill was less than its carrying value by approximately $92.0 million, which the Company recognized as a goodwill impairment charge in the accompanying condensed consolidated results of operations for the second quarter ended June 28, 2008. The $92.0 million goodwill impairment charge was an estimate based on the results of the preliminary allocation of fair value in the second step. We completed our impairment test in the third quarter of 2008, which resulted in an additional non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $1.3 million.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $40.2 million for the first nine months of 2009, a decrease of $6.7 million, from $46.9 million for the first nine months of 2008. There were restructuring charges in selling, general and administrative expenses in each period of $2.0 million in the first nine months of 2009 and $0.7 million in the first nine months of 2008. Adjusting for these charges, selling, general and administrative expenses were $38.2 million for the first nine months of 2009, compared to $46.2 million for the first nine months of 2008, a decrease of $8.0 million. This decrease was mainly due to a $6.1 million decrease in personnel related costs as the result of the cost saving actions, a $1.5 million decrease in fuel costs, a $0.8 million decrease in marketing and advertising costs and approximately $0.6 million of overall lower spending in other categories. These cost savings were partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in bad debt expense. As a percentage of sales, adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses increased during the first nine months of 2009 to 29.4% compared to 27.3% for the first nine months of 2008, mainly due to the loss of leverage from the decrease in sales.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net was $5.1 million in the first nine months of 2009, a decrease of $2.1 million, from $7.2 million for the first nine months of 2008. The decrease was due to a lower level of debt during the first nine months of 2009 compared to the first nine months of 2008, partially offset by a higher interest rate on our debt during the first nine months of 2009 compared to the first nine months of 2008.

Other expense (income), net

There was other expense of less than $0.1 million for the first nine months of 2009, compared to other income of less than $0.1 million for the first nine months of 2008. The amounts in each quarter relate to ineffective portions of aluminum hedges.

Income tax benefit

We had an effective tax rate of a benefit of 1.8% for the first nine months of 2009. The benefit results from certain adjustments relating to the amendment of a prior year tax return. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities during the first nine months of 2009 were offset by changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Excluding the change in the valuation allowance, the effective tax rate in the first nine months of 2009 would have been a tax benefit of 38.0%.

Table of Contents

We had an effective tax rate of a benefit of 14.7% for the first nine months of 2008. Excluding deferred tax benefits totaling $13.8 million related to the $93.6 million of impairment charges and a $0.1 million valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets for North Carolina state tax credits recorded in the nine months ended September 29, 2008, we would have had an effective tax rate of 36.4% for the first nine months ended September 27, 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal source of liquidity is cash flow generated by operations, supplemented by borrowings under our credit facilities. This cash generating capability provides us with financial flexibility in meeting operating and investing needs. Our primary capital requirements are to fund working capital needs, meet required debt payments, including debt service payments on our credit facilities, and fund capital expenditures.

Consolidated Cash Flows

Operating activities. Cash provided by operating activities was $3.0 million in the first nine months of 2009 compared to $12.9 million in the first nine months of 2008. This decrease was mainly due to lower operating profitability in the first nine months of 2009 than 2008. Direct cash flows from operations for the first nine months of 2009 and 2008 are as follows:


	Direct Cash Flows
	Nine Months Ended
	October 3,			September 27,
(in millions)	2009			2008
Collections from customers	$	130.8		$	171.4
Other collections of cash		2.1			3.2
Disbursements to vendors		(77.4	)		(97.0	)
Personnel related disbursements		(48.8	)		(60.5	)
Debt service costs		(4.6	)		(6.6	)
Other cash activity, net		0.9			2.4

Cash provided by operations	$	3.0		$	12.9

Other collections of cash in both the first nine months of 2009 and 2008 primarily represent scrap aluminum sales. The first nine months of 2009 also includes $0.7 million of proceeds from an insurance recovery. Other cash activity, net, in both periods is primarily composed of federal tax refunds.

Days sales outstanding (DSO), which we calculate as accounts receivable divided by average daily sales, was 44 days at October 4, 2009, and 39 days at January 3, 2009, compared to 41 days at September 27, 2008 and 37 days at December 29, 2007.

Investing activities. Cash provided by investing activities was $0.5 million for the first nine months of 2009, compared to cash used of $2.9 million for the first nine months of 2008. The increase of $3.4 million in cash from investing activities was mainly due to $3.7 million of net cash received from our margin account with our commodities broker related to returns of previously funded margin calls and settlements of forward contracts for aluminum, which we classify as investing activities, and a $1.2 million decrease in capital expenditures due to a lower level of capital spending in the first nine months of 2009 than in 2008. We used $1.5 million in cash for investing activities for the Hurricane acquisition in the third quarter of 2009.

Financing activities. Cash used in financing activities was $20.1 million in the first nine months of 2009, compared to cash used of $10.6 million in the first nine months of 2008. In September 2009, we prepaid $12.0 million and in June 2009, we prepaid $8.0 million of our long-term debt. We paid an additional $0.1 million in debt under capital lease obligations. In June 2008, we prepaid $10.0 million of our long-term debt with cash generated from operations. Using proceeds from the rights offering, which resulted in $29.4 million in net cash proceeds, we prepaid an additional $20.0 million of our long-term debt in August 2008 and another $10.0 million in September 2008, for a total of $40 million in debt prepayments in 2008. Cash proceeds from stock option exercises in the first nine months of 2008 totaled $0.2 million with related excess tax benefits of $0.5 million. There were no options exercised in the first nine months of 2009. Payment of deferred financing costs related to the effectiveness of the amendment of our credit agreement totaled $0.6 million.

Capital Resources. On February 14, 2006, we entered into a second amended and restated $235 million senior secured credit facility and a $115 million second lien term loan due August 14, 2012, with a syndicate of banks. The senior secured credit facility is composed of a $30 million revolving credit facility and, initially, a $205 million first lien term loan. The second lien term loan was fully repaid with proceeds from our IPO in 2006. The outstanding balance of the first lien term loan on October 3, 2009 was $70.0 million, a decrease of $20.0 million since the beginning of 2009 due to the prepayments as discussed below.

The rights offering was fully subscribed, resulting in the Company distributing all 7,082,687 shares of its common stock available. Net proceeds of $29.3 million from the rights offering were used to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under our amended credit agreement.

During June 2009, we prepaid an additional $8.0 million of long-term debt using cash generated from operations during the second quarter of 2009 and cash on hand. During September 2009, we prepaid $12.0 million of long-term debt primarily from cash on hand but also cash generated from operations during the third quarter of 2009.

Table of Contents

As discussed above, we made a $12 million prepayment of outstanding bank debt using primarily cash on hand and we were in compliance with all covenants required by our credit agreement, as amended, as of October 3, 2009. As a result of the draw-down under the revolving credit facility as described above, and based on management’s current forecasts of profitability for the fourth quarter of 2009, we expect to be required to make an additional debt repayment before the end of our 2009 fiscal year, which ends on January 2, 2010. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we estimate that we will have adequate cash on hand to make any required debt repayment and maintain compliance with the maximum allowed leverage ratio for the fourth quarter of 2009 as defined in our credit agreement, as amended. However, we have continued to experience a significant deterioration in the various markets in which we compete. Any further deterioration in these markets may adversely impact our ability to meet our leverage ratio in the fourth quarter of 2009. We will continue to evaluate what action, if any, might be necessary to maintain compliance with our financial covenants, including further cost saving actions and raising additional capital.

Based on our ability to generate cash flows from operations and our borrowing capacity under the revolver under the senior secured credit facility, we believe we will have sufficient capital to meet our short-term and long-term needs, including our capital expenditures and our debt obligations in 2009.

Capital Expenditures. Capital expenditures vary depending on prevailing business factors, including current and anticipated market conditions. For the first nine months of 2009, capital expenditures were $1.8 million, compared to $3.0 million for the first nine months of 2008. During 2008 and continuing into 2009, we reduced certain discretionary capital spending to conserve cash. We anticipate that cash flows from operations and liquidity from the revolving credit facility, if needed, will be sufficient to execute our business plans.

Hedging. We enter into aluminum forward contracts to hedge the fluctuations in the purchase price of aluminum extrusion we use in production. The Company enters into these contracts by trading on the London Metals Exchange (“LME”). The Company trades on the LME using an international commodities broker that offers global access to all major markets. The Company maintains a $0.4 million line of credit with its commodities broker to cover the liability position of open contracts for the purchase of aluminum in the event that the price of aluminum falls. Should the price of aluminum fall to a level which causes the Company’s liability for open aluminum contracts to exceed $0.4 million, the Company is required to fund daily margin calls to cover the excess. As of October 3, 2009, the amount on deposit with our commodities broker of $0.4 million was less than the liability position of our aluminum forward contracts by $0.4 million. As such, the full $0.4 million line of credit was used as of October 3, 2009.

Contractual Obligations

Other than the debt payments and draw down under the revolving credit facility as described in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” above, there have been no significant changes to our “Disclosures of Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments” table in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2009 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 19, 2009. Amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility have a contractual maturity of February 2011.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Critical accounting policies are those that are both important to the accurate portrayal of a Company’s financial condition and results and require subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Certain estimates are particularly sensitive due to their significance to the financial statements and the possibility that future events may be significantly different from our expectations.

We identified our critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2009 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 19, 2009. There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies during the first nine months of 2009.

Related Party Transactions

In the ordinary course of business, we sell windows to Builders FirstSource, Inc., a company controlled by affiliates of JLL Partners, Inc. One of our directors, Floyd F. Sherman, is the president, chief executive officer, and a director of Builders FirstSource, Inc. In addition, Ramsey A. Frank, Brett N. Milgrim, and Paul S. Levy are directors of both our Company and Builders FirstSource, Inc. Mr. Levy is also chairman of the board of directors of our Company. Total net sales to Builders FirstSource, Inc. were $0.7 million and $2.2 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, and $0.6 million and $2.2 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2008, respectively.

Subsequent Event

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We experience changes in interest expense when market interest rates change. Changes in our debt could also increase these risks. Based on debt outstanding at October 3, 2009, a one percentage-point increase (decrease) in interest rates would result in approximately $0.7 million of additional (reduced) interest costs annually. However, having drawn down $12.0 million under our revolving credit facility after the close of the third quarter of 2009, based on debt outstanding as of the filing of the Current Report on Form 10-Q, a one percentage-point increase (decrease) in interest rates would result in approximately $0.8 million of additional (reduced) interest costs annually. As of October 3, 2009, we had no interest rate swaps or caps in place which means our debt is all adjustable-rate debt.

We utilize derivative financial instruments to hedge price movements in aluminum materials used in our manufacturing process. We entered into aluminum hedging instruments that settle at various times through the end of 2010 and cover approximately 47% of our anticipated needs during the remainder of 2009 at an average price of $0.98 per pound and 45% during 2010 at an average price of $0.94 per pound.

For forward contracts for the purchase of aluminum at October 3, 2009, a 10% decrease in the price of aluminum would decrease the fair value of our forward contacts of aluminum by $0.5 million.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

A control system, however, no matter how well conceived and operated, can at best provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Additionally, a control system reflects the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of error or fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected, and due to these inherent limitations, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, with the assistance of management, evaluated the design, operation and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purposes of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation described above that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. We carry insurance coverage in such amounts in excess of our self-insured retention as we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and that may or may not cover any or all of our liabilities in respect to claims and lawsuits. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Although our business and facilities are subject to federal, state and local environmental regulation, environmental regulation does not have a material impact on our operations. We believe that our facilities are in material compliance with such laws and regulations. As owners and lessees of real property, we can be held liable for the investigation or remediation of contamination on such properties, in some circumstances without regard to whether we knew of or were responsible for such contamination. Our current expenditures with respect to environmental investigation and remediation at our facilities are minimal, although no assurance can be provided that more significant remediation may not be required in the future as a result of spills or releases of petroleum products or hazardous substances or the discovery of previously unknown environmental conditions.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part 1, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2009, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
