EXPLANATORY NOTE

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (this “report”) is a combined quarterly report being filed separately by two registrants: Summit Materials, Inc. and Summit Materials, LLC. Each registrant hereto is filing on its own behalf all of the information contained in this report that relates to such registrant. Each registrant hereto is not filing any information that does not relate to such registrant, and therefore makes no representation as to any such information. We believe that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of Summit Materials, Inc. and Summit Materials, LLC into this single report eliminates duplicative and potentially confusing disclosure and provides a more streamlined presentation since a substantial amount of the disclosure applies to both registrants.

Unless stated otherwise or the context requires otherwise, references to “Summit Inc.” mean Summit Materials, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and references to “Summit LLC” mean Summit Materials, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The references to Summit Inc. and Summit LLC are used in cases where it is important to distinguish between them. We use the terms “we,” “our,” “us” or “the Company” to refer to Summit Inc. and Summit LLC together with their respective subsidiaries, unless otherwise noted or the context otherwise requires.

Summit Inc. was formed on September 23, 2014 to be a holding company. As of July 2, 2016, its sole material asset was a 62.9% economic interest in Summit Materials Holdings L.P. (“Summit Holdings”). Summit Inc. has 100% of the voting rights of Summit Holdings, which is the indirect parent of Summit LLC. Summit LLC is a co-issuer of our outstanding 8 1/₂% senior notes due 2022 (“2022 Notes”) and our 61/₈% senior notes due 2023 (“2023 Notes” and collectively with the 2022 Notes, the "Senior Notes"). Summit Inc.’s only revenue for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 was that generated by Summit LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries. Summit Inc. controls all of the business and affairs of Summit Holdings and, in turn, Summit LLC, as a result of its reorganization into a holding corporation structure consummated in connection with the initial public offering of its Class A common stock on March 11, 2015 (“IPO”).

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “intends,” “trends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans, expectations or intentions. All statements made relating to our estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, it is very difficult to predict the effect of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or our objectives and plans will be realized. Important factors could affect our results and could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements, including but not limited to the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Summit Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2016 (the “Annual Report”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), any factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” of this report, and the following:

our dependence on the construction industry and the strength of the local economies in which we operate;

the cyclical nature of our business;

risks related to weather and seasonality;

risks associated with our capital-intensive business;

competition within our local markets;

Table of Contents

our ability to execute on our acquisition strategy, successfully integrate acquisitions with our existing operations and retain key employees of acquired businesses;

our dependence on securing and permitting aggregate reserves in strategically located areas;

declines in public infrastructure construction and reductions in governmental funding, including the funding by transportation authorities and other state agencies;

environmental, health, safety and climate change laws or governmental requirements or policies concerning zoning and land use;

conditions in the credit markets;

our ability to accurately estimate the overall risks, requirements or costs when we bid on or negotiate contracts that are ultimately awarded to us;

material costs and losses as a result of claims that our products do not meet regulatory requirements or contractual specifications;

cancellation of a significant number of contracts or our disqualification from bidding for new contracts;

special hazards related to our operations that may cause personal injury or property damage not covered by insurance;

our substantial current level of indebtedness;

our dependence on senior management and other key personnel; and

interruptions in our information technology systems and infrastructure.

All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements.

Any forward-looking statement that we make herein speaks only as of the date of this report. 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.

SUMMIT MATERIALS, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Tables in thousands, except share amounts)

1.SUMMARY OF ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Summit Materials, Inc. (“Summit Inc.” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a vertically-integrated construction materials company. The Company is engaged in the production and sale of aggregates, cement, ready-mixed concrete, asphalt paving mix and concrete products and owns and operates quarries, sand and gravel pits, two cement plants, cement distribution terminals, ready-mixed concrete plants, asphalt plants and landfill sites. It is also engaged in paving and related services. The Company’s three operating and reporting segments are the West, East and Cement segments.

Substantially all of the Company’s products and services are produced, consumed and performed outdoors, primarily in the spring, summer and fall. Seasonal changes and other weather-related conditions can affect the production and sales volumes of its products and delivery of services. Therefore, the financial results for any interim period are typically not indicative of the results expected for the full year. Furthermore, the Company’s sales and earnings are sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions and to cyclical changes in construction spending, among other factors.

On September 23, 2014, Summit Inc. was formed as a Delaware corporation to be a holding company. Its sole material asset is a controlling equity interest in Summit Materials Holdings L.P. (“Summit Holdings”). Pursuant to a reorganization into a holding company structure (the “Reorganization”) consummated in connection with Summit Inc.’s March 2015 initial public offering, Summit Inc. became a holding corporation operating and controlling all of the business and affairs of Summit Holdings and its subsidiaries and, through Summit Holdings, conducts its business. Together with Summit Inc., certain investment funds affiliated with Blackstone Capital Partners V L.P. and Silverhawk Summit, L.P. (collectively, the “Sponsors”) are the primary owners of Summit Holdings.

Equity Offerings—Summit Inc. commenced operations on March 11, 2015 upon the pricing of the initial public offering of its Class A common stock (“IPO”). Summit Inc. raised $433.0 million, net of underwriting discounts, through the issuance of 25,555,555 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $18.00 per share. Summit Inc. used the offering proceeds to purchase a number of newly-issued Class A Units (“LP Units”) from Summit Holdings equal to the number of shares of Class A common stock issued to the public. Summit Inc. caused Summit Holdings to use these proceeds: (i) to redeem $288.2 million in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 10 1/₂% senior notes due January 31, 2020 (“2020 Notes”); (ii) to purchase 71,428,571 Class B Units of Continental Cement Company, L.L.C. (“Continental Cement”); (iii) to pay a one-time termination fee of $13.8 million primarily to affiliates of the Sponsors in connection with the termination of a transaction and management fee agreement; and (iv) for general corporate purposes. The $288.2 million redemption of 2020 Notes was completed in the second quarter of 2015 at a redemption price equal to par plus an applicable premium of $38.2 million plus $5.2 million of accrued and unpaid interest.

In connection with the IPO, Summit Inc. issued 69,007,297 shares of its Class B common stock to Summit Owner Holdco LLC (“Summit Owner Holdco”), a Delaware limited liability company owned by certain pre-IPO owners and the former holders of Class B Units of Continental Cement. The Class B common stock entitles Summit Owner Holdco, without regard to the number of shares of Class B common stock held by it, to a number of votes that is equal to the aggregate number of LP Units held by all limited partners of Summit Holdings (excluding Summit Inc.). The Class B common stock does not participate in dividends and does not have any liquidation rights.

On August 11, 2015, Summit Inc. raised $555.8 million, net of underwriting discounts, through the issuance of 22,425,000 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $25.75 per share ("the August 2015 follow-on offering"). Summit Inc. used these proceeds to purchase 3,750,000 newly-issued LP Units from Summit Holdings and 18,675,000 LP Units from certain of our pre-IPO owners, at a purchase price per LP Unit equal to the public offering price per share of Class A common stock, less underwriting discounts and commissions.

Table of Contents

Summit Holdings used the proceeds from the 3,750,000 newly-issued LP Units to pay the deferred purchase price of $80.0 million related to the July 17, 2015 acquisition of a cement plant and a quarry in Davenport, Iowa, and seven cement terminals along the Mississippi River (the “Davenport Assets”) and for general corporate purposes.

Basis of Presentation—These unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures typically included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended January 2, 2016. The Company continues to follow the accounting policies set forth in those consolidated financial statements.

Management believes that these consolidated interim financial statements include all adjustments, normal and recurring in nature, that are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of July 2, 2016 the results of operations for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015 and cash flows for the six months ended July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015.

The Company’s fiscal year is based on a 52-53 week year with each quarter composed of 13 weeks ending on a Saturday. The 53-week year occurs approximately once every seven years and occurred in 2015. The additional week in the 53-week year was included in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Summit Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. As a result of the Reorganization, Summit Holdings became a variable interest entity over which Summit Inc. has 100% voting power and control and for which Summit Inc. has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits. As a result, Summit Inc. is Summit Holdings’ primary beneficiary and thus consolidates Summit Holdings in its consolidated financial statements with a corresponding noncontrolling interest elimination, which was 37.1% and 50.3% as of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, respectively.

Noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries represent a 20% ownership in Ohio Valley Asphalt, LLC and, prior to the IPO and concurrent purchase of the noncontrolling interests of Continental Cement, a 30% redeemable ownership in Continental Cement. The Company attributes consolidated stockholders’ equity and net income separately to the controlling and noncontrolling interests. The Company accounts for investments in entities for which it has an ownership of 20% to 50% using the equity method of accounting.

Use of Estimates—Preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Such estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, pension and other postretirement obligations and asset retirement obligations. Estimates also include revenue earned on contracts and costs to complete contracts. Most of the Company’s paving and related services are performed under fixed unit-price contracts with state and local governmental entities. Management regularly evaluates its estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results can differ significantly from estimates made. Changes in estimates, including those resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment, are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements when the change in estimate occurs.

Business and Credit Concentrations—The Company’s operations are conducted primarily across 24 U.S. states and in British Columbia, Canada, with the most significant revenue generated in Texas, Kansas, Utah, Missouri and Kentucky. The Company’s accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from customers within these areas. Therefore, collection of these accounts is dependent on the economic conditions in the aforementioned states, as well as specific situations affecting individual customers. Credit granted within the Company’s trade areas has been granted to many customers, and management does not believe that a significant concentration of

Table of Contents

credit exists with respect to any individual customer or group of customers. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015.

Earnings per Share—The Company computes basic earnings per share attributable to stockholders by dividing income attributable to Summit Inc. by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic earnings per share that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock, or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would have shared in the Company’s earnings. Since the Class B common stock has no economic value, those shares are not included in the weighted-average common share amount for basic or diluted earnings per share. In addition, as the shares of Class A common stock are issued by Summit Inc., the earnings and equity interests of noncontrolling interests are not included in basic earnings per share.

Fair Value Measurements—Certain acquisitions made by the Company require the payment of contingent amounts of purchase consideration. These payments are contingent on specified operating results being achieved in periods subsequent to the acquisition and will only be made if earn-out thresholds are achieved. Contingent consideration obligations are measured at fair value each reporting period. Any adjustments to fair value are recognized in earnings in the period identified.

The Company has entered into interest rate derivatives on $200.0 million of its term loan borrowings to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The fair value of contingent consideration and derivatives as of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016 was:


	July 2,		January 2,
	2016		2016
Current portion of acquisition-related liabilities and Accrued expenses:
Contingent consideration	$	4,991	$	4,918
Cash flow hedges		677		224
Acquisition-related liabilities and Other noncurrent liabilities
Contingent consideration	$	1,785	$	2,475
Cash flow hedges		3,500		681

The fair value of contingent consideration was based on unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, including projected probability-weighted cash payments and an 11.0% discount rate, which reflects a market discount rate. Changes in fair value may occur as a result of a change in actual or projected cash payments, the probability weightings applied by the Company to projected payments or a change in the discount rate. Significant increases or decreases in any of these inputs in isolation could result in a lower, or higher, fair value measurement. The fair value of the cash flow hedges are based on observable, or Level 2, inputs such as interest rates, bond yields and prices in inactive markets. There were no material valuation adjustments in the three or six months ended July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015.

Table of Contents

Financial Instruments—The Company’s financial instruments include debt and certain acquisition-related liabilities (deferred consideration and noncompete obligations). The carrying value and fair value of these financial instruments as of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016 was:


	July 2, 2016				January 2, 2016
	Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value
Level 2
Long-term debt(1)	$	1,553,674	$	1,538,962	$	1,283,799	$	1,291,858

Level 3
Current portion of deferred consideration and noncompete obligations(2)		12,740		12,740		15,666		15,666
Long term portion of deferred consideration and noncompete obligations(3)		30,748		30,748		37,502		37,502

(1)

Balance includes $6.5 million of current portion of debt and excludes capitalized loan costs of $15.7 million and $11.7 million as of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, respectively.

(2)

Included in current portion of acquisition-related liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

(3)

Included in acquisition-related liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

The fair value of debt was determined based on observable, or Level 2, inputs, such as interest rates, bond yields and quoted prices in inactive markets. The fair values of the deferred consideration and noncompete obligations were determined based on unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, including the cash payment terms in the purchase agreements and a discount rate reflecting the Company’s credit risk.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest — On March 17, 2015, upon the consummation of the IPO and the transactions contemplated by a contribution and purchase agreement entered into with the holders of all of the outstanding Class B Units of Continental Cement, Continental Cement became a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Summit Inc. The noncontrolling interests of Continental Cement were acquired for aggregate consideration of $64.1 million, consisting of $35.0 million of cash, 1,029,183 shares of Summit Inc.’s Class A common stock and $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of non-interest bearing notes payable in six annual installments of $2.5 million, beginning on March 17, 2016.

New Accounting Standards — In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard with targeted amendments to the accounting for employee share-based payments. Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, requires that the income tax effect of share-based awards be recognized in the income statement and allows entities to elect an accounting method to recognize forfeitures as they occur or to estimate forfeitures, as is currently required. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. However, the Company early adopted this ASU as of the beginning of fiscal year 2016 and made an election to recognize forfeitures as they occur. The ASU adoption was applied using a modified retrospective method by means of a $1.7 million cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year.

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard related to lease accounting, ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which will result in lessees recognizing most leases on the balance sheet. Lessees are required to disclose more quantitative and qualitative information about their leases than current U.S. GAAP requires. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently assessing the effect that the adoption of this ASU will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to improve and converge the financial reporting requirements for revenue from contracts with customers. ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, prescribes a five-step model for revenue recognition that will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The ASU will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP and provides that an entity recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to

Table of Contents

customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This update also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU No. 2014-09 allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. In July 2015, the FASB postponed the effective date of the new revenue standard by one year to the first quarter of 2018. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than 2017. Management is currently assessing the effect that the adoption of this standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications — Certain amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

2.SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Prior to the IPO and Reorganization, the capital structure of Summit Holdings consisted of six different classes of limited partnership interests (Class A-1, Class A-2, Class B-1, Class C, Class D-1 and Class D-2), each of which was subject to unique distribution rights. There were no outstanding Class A-2 interests. In connection with the IPO and the Reorganization, the limited partnership agreement of Summit Holdings was amended and restated to, among other things, modify its capital structure by creating the LP Units (“Reclassification”). Immediately following the Reclassification, 69,007,297 LP Units were outstanding. In addition, in substitution for part of the economic benefit of the Class C and Class D interests that was not reflected in the conversion of such interests to LP Units, warrants were issued to holders of Class C interests to purchase an aggregate of 160,333 shares of Class A common stock, and options were issued to holders of Class D interests to purchase an aggregate of 4,358,842 shares of Class A common stock (“leverage restoration options”). The exercise price of the warrants and leverage restoration options is the IPO price of $18.00 per share. In conjunction with the Reclassification of the equity-based awards, the Company recognized a $14.5 million modification charge in general and administrative costs in the three months ended March 28, 2015.

The leverage restoration options were granted under the Summit Materials, Inc. 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”). The leverage restoration options that correlate to time-vesting interests vest over four years, beginning on the Reclassification date and the leverage restoration options that correlate to performance-vesting interests vest only when both the relevant return multiple is achieved and a four year time-vesting condition is satisfied. The time-based vesting condition for both the time-vesting and performance-vesting interests will be satisfied with respect to 25% of the performance-vesting options on each of the first four anniversaries of the Reclassification date, subject to the employee’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date.

The Company also granted 240,000 options to purchase shares of Class A common stock under the Omnibus Incentive Plan to certain employees some of whom had not previously been granted equity-based interests. These stock options have an exercise price of $18.00 per share, the IPO price, and are subject to a time-based vesting condition that will be satisfied with respect to 25% of the award on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the employee’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date.

In the six months ended July 2, 2016, Summit Inc. acquired 13,177,754 LP Units in exchange for 13,177,754 newly issued shares of Class A common stock. The value of the exchanged shares was determined based on the closing price of Summit Inc.’s Class A common stock as of the date of the exchange, which totaled $263.6 million. As of July 2, 2016, Summit Inc. owned 62.9% of Summit Holdings.

Included in the LP Units exchanged for shares of Class A common stock in the six months ended July 2, 2016 were 9,272,378 LP Units exchanged by certain investment funds associated with or designated by The Blackstone Group L.P. (“Blackstone”). Blackstone subsequently sold the shares of Class A common stock it received in an underwritten public offering. As a result of this transaction and Blackstone’s prior exchange and sale of LP Units, the Company determined that the performance target associated with certain LP Units and certain leverage restoration options, which is based on Blackstone achieving a 1.75 times return on its initial investment, is probable of occurring. Accordingly, the Company recognized a $24.8 million charge in general and administrative costs in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 reflective of the cumulative costs that would have been recognized for these awards had the performance targets been deemed probable at the IPO date.

3.ACQUISITIONS

The Company has completed numerous acquisitions since its formation in 2009, which were financed through a combination of debt and equity funding. The operations of each acquisition have been included in the Company’s consolidated results of operations since the respective dates of the acquisitions. The Company measures all assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair value.

West segment

On April 29, 2016, the Company acquired Sierra Ready Mix, LLC (“Sierra”), a vertically integrated aggregates and ready-mixed concrete business with one sand and gravel pit and two ready-mixed concrete plants located in Las Vegas, Nevada. The acquisition was funded with cash on hand.

On December 11, 2015, the Company acquired all of the assets of Pelican Asphalt Company, LLC, an asphalt terminal business in Houston, Texas. The acquisition was funded with cash on hand.

On August 21, 2015, the Company acquired all of the stock of LeGrand Johnson Construction Co., a vertically integrated company based in Utah with five sand and gravel pits, four ready-mixed concrete plants and three asphalt plants and servicing the northern and central Utah, western Wyoming and southern Idaho markets. The acquisition was funded with borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

On June 1, 2015, the Company acquired all of the stock of Lewis & Lewis, Inc., a vertically integrated business in Wyoming. The acquisition was funded with borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

East segment

On May 20, 2016, the Company acquired seven aggregates quarries in central and northwest Missouri from APAC-Kansas, Inc. and APAC-Missouri, Inc., subsidiaries of Oldcastle Materials, Inc. (“Oldcastle Assets”).

On March 18, 2016, the Company acquired Boxley Materials Company (“Boxley”), a vertically integrated company based in Roanoke, Virginia with six quarries, four ready-mixed concrete plants and four asphalt plants.

On February 5, 2016, the Company acquired American Materials Company (“AMC”), an aggregates company with five sand and gravel pits servicing coastal North and South Carolina. The acquisition was funded with cash on hand.

Cement segment

On July 17, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of the Davenport Assets, a cement plant and a quarry in Davenport, Iowa, and seven cement terminals along the Mississippi River for $450.0 million in cash and a cement distribution terminal in Bettendorf, Iowa, for which a $16.6 million gain on disposition was recognized in general and administrative costs. The cash purchase price was funded through a combination of debt (see Note 7) and $80.0 million with proceeds from the August 2015 follow-on offering. Combined with the Company’s cement plant in Hannibal, Missouri, the Company has over two million short tons of cement capacity across our two plants and eight cement distribution terminals along the Mississippi River from Minneapolis, Minnesota to New Orleans, Louisiana. The goodwill that was acquired with the Davenport Assets reflects the value from estimated synergies and cost savings, primarily from expanded geographic area, overhead cost reductions and best practice sharing of operating efficiencies between the acquired assets and the Company’s existing cement plant in Hannibal, Missouri. The Davenport Assets were immediately integrated into the Company’s existing cement operations such that it is not practicable to report revenue and net income separately for the Davenport Assets.

Reflects goodwill from 2016 acquisitions and working capital adjustments from prior year acquisitions in the West and Cement segments, including $5.4 million related to below-market contracts assumed with the Davenport Assets acquisition.

The Company’s intangible assets are primarily composed of goodwill, lease agreements and reserve rights. The assets related to lease agreements reflect the submarket royalty rates paid under agreements, primarily, for extracting aggregates. The values were determined as of the respective acquisition dates by a comparison of market-royalty rates. The reserve rights relate to aggregate reserves to which the Company has the rights of ownership, but do not own the reserves. The intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the leases. The following table shows intangible assets by type and in total:

Senior Notes— On March 8, 2016, Summit LLC and Summit Materials Finance Corp., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Summit LLC ("Finance Corp." and with Summit LLC, the “Issuers”) issued $250.0 million of 8.500% senior notes due April 15, 2022 (the “2022 Notes”). The 2022 Notes were issued at 100.0% of their par value with proceeds of $246.3 million, net of related fees and expenses. The proceeds from the sale of the 2022 Notes were used to fund the acquisition of Boxley, replenish cash used for the acquisition of AMC and the expenses incurred in connection with these acquisitions. The 2022 Notes were issued under an indenture dated March 8, 2016 (as amended and supplemented, the “2016 Indenture”). The 2016 Indenture contains covenants limiting, among other things, Summit LLC and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares, pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions, make certain investments, sell or transfer certain assets, create liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the company’s assets, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, and designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. The 2016 Indenture also contains customary events of default. Interest on the 2022 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year commencing on October 15, 2016.

In 2015, the Issuers issued $650.0 million of 6.125% senior notes due July 2023 (the "2023 Notes” and collectively with the 2022 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The net proceeds from the 2023 Notes, with proceeds from the refinancing of the term loan described below, were used to pay the $370.0 million initial purchase price for the Davenport Assets, to redeem $336.8 million in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes and pay related fees and expenses. Of the aggregate $650.0 million of 2023 Notes, $350.0 million were issued at par and $300.0 million were issued at 99.375% of par. The 2023 Notes were issued under an indenture dated July 8, 2015, the terms of which are generally consistent with the 2016 Indenture. Interest on the 2023 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year commencing on January 15, 2016.

Table of Contents

In April, August and November 2015, using proceeds from the IPO, the refinancing of the term loan described below and the proceeds from the 2023 Notes, $288.2 million, $183.0 million and $153.8 million, respectively, in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes were redeemed at a price equal to par plus an applicable premium and the indenture under which the 2020 Notes were issued was satisfied and discharged. As a result of the redemptions, net charges of $56.5 million were recognized for the year ended January 2, 2016. The fees included $66.6 million for the applicable prepayment premium and $11.9 million for the write-off of deferred financing fees, partially offset by $22.0 million of net benefit from the write-off of the original issuance net premium for the year ended January 2, 2016.

As of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the applicable indentures.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities— Summit LLC has credit facilities that provide for term loans in an aggregate amount of $650.0 million and revolving credit commitments in an aggregate amount of $235.0 million (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). Under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, required principal repayments of 0.25% of term debt are due on the last business day of each March, June, September and December. The unpaid principal balance is due in full on the maturity date, which is July 17, 2022. On July 17, 2015, Summit LLC refinanced its term loan under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (the “Refinancing”). The Refinancing, among other things: (i) reduced the applicable margins used to calculate interest rates for term loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities to 3.25% for LIBOR rate loans and 2.25% for base rate loans, subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.00% (and one 25 basis point step down upon Summit LLC achieving a certain first lien net leverage ratio); (ii) increased term loans borrowed under the term loan facility from $422.0 million to an aggregate $650.0 million; and (iii) created additional flexibility under the financial maintenance covenants, which are tested quarterly, by increasing the applicable maximum Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement governing the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the “Credit Agreement”).

On March 11, 2015, Summit LLC entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Credit Agreement, which became effective on March 17, 2015 upon the consummation of the IPO. The amendment: (i) increased the size of the revolving credit facility from $150.0 million to $235.0 million; (ii) extended the maturity date of the revolving credit facility to March 11, 2020; (iii) amended certain covenants; and (iv) permits periodic tax distributions as contemplated in a tax receivable agreement, dated March 11, 2015. As a result of this amendment, $0.8 million of financing fees were recognized in the six months ended June 27, 2015.

The revolving credit facility bears interest per annum equal to, at Summit LLC’s option, either (i) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A. and (c) LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin of 2.25% for base rate loans or (ii) a LIBOR rate determined by reference to Reuters prior to the interest period relevant to such borrowing adjusted for certain additional costs plus an applicable margin of 3.25% for LIBOR rate loans.

There were $14.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility as of July 2, 2016, leaving remaining borrowing capacity of $195.4 million, which is net of $25.6 million of outstanding letters of credit. The outstanding letters of credit are renewed annually and support required bonding on construction projects and the Company’s insurance liabilities.

Summit LLC’s Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement, should be no greater than 4.75:1.0 as of each quarter-end. As of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, Summit LLC was in compliance with all covenants.

Summit LLC’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiary companies, subject to certain exclusions and exceptions, are named as subsidiary guarantors of the Senior Notes and the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. In addition, Summit LLC has pledged substantially all of its assets as collateral, subject to certain exclusions and exceptions, for the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

Interest expense related to debt totaled $22.0 million and $40.2 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, and $14.8 million and $36.8 million in the three and six months ended June 27, 2015, respectively.

9.INCOME TAXES

Summit Inc.’s tax provision includes its proportional share of Summit Holdings’ tax attributes. Summit Holdings’ subsidiaries are primarily limited liability companies, but do include certain entities organized as C corporations and a Canadian subsidiary. The tax attributes related to the limited liability companies are passed on to Summit Holdings and then to its partners, including Summit Inc. The tax attributes associated with the C corporation and Canadian subsidiaries are fully reflected in the Company’s accounts.

As of January 2, 2016, Summit Inc. had a valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets of $263.8 million, which primarily consisted of a temporary difference related to the tax intangible assets basis in excess of book.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, including the deferred tax assets resulting from the expected taxable loss in 2016 and those generated under the tax receivable agreement described below, management determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those

Table of Contents

temporary differences become deductible and consideration of tax-planning strategies. Considering these factors, a full valuation allowance was recorded, which has resulted in no provision for Summit Inc.’s income taxes in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016.

Tax Receivable Agreement—Upon the consummation of the Reorganization, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement with the holders of LP Units and certain other pre-IPO owners (“Investor Entities”) that provides for the payment by Summit Inc. to exchanging holders of LP Units of 85% of the benefits, if any, that Summit Inc. is deemed to realize as a result of (i) increases in the tax basis of tangible and intangible assets of Summit Holdings and (ii) the utilization of certain net operating losses of the Investor Entities and certain other tax benefits related to entering into the tax receivable agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the tax receivable agreement. In the six months ended July 2, 2016, 13,177,754 LP units were acquired by Summit Inc. in exchange for an equal number of newly-issued shares of Summit Inc.’s Class A common stock. This exchange resulted in a deferred tax asset of approximately $120 million, 85% of which is a liability due to the holders of the exchanged LP Units. As discussed above, a full valuation allowance was recognized on the deferred tax asset. As realization of the tax benefit is not currently deemed probable, the related liability to the former LP Unit holders is not considered probable and is not included in the consolidated balance sheet.

Tax Distributions – The holders of Summit Holdings’ LP Units, including Summit Inc., incur U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on their share of any taxable income of Summit Holdings. The limited partnership agreement of Summit Holdings provides for pro rata cash distributions (“tax distributions”) to the holders of the LP Units in an amount generally calculated to provide each holder of LP Units with sufficient cash to cover its tax liability in respect of the LP Units. In general, these tax distributions are computed based on Summit Holdings’ estimated taxable income allocated to each holder of LP Units multiplied by an assumed tax rate equal to the highest effective marginal combined U.S. federal, state and local income tax rate applicable to an individual or corporate resident in New York, New York (or a corporate resident in certain circumstances). In the six months ended July 2, 2016, Summit Holdings paid tax distributions totaling $0.7 million, of which $0.4 million were paid to holders of its LP Units, other than Summit Inc., and $0.3 million is payable to Summit Inc.

C Corporation Subsidiaries — The effective income tax rate for the C corporations differ from the statutory federal rate primarily due to (1) tax depletion expense in excess of the expense recorded under U.S. GAAP, (2) state income taxes and the effect of graduated tax rates and (3) various other items such as limitations on meals and entertainment and other costs. The effective income tax rate for the Canadian subsidiary is not significantly different from its historical effective tax rate.

As of July 2, 2016, and January 2, 2016, Summit Inc. and its subsidiaries had not recognized any liabilities for uncertain tax positions. The Company records interest and penalties as a component of the income tax provision. No material interest or penalties were recognized in income tax expense during the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, or June 27, 2015.

10. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding and diluted net income is computed by dividing net income, adjusted for changes in the amount allocated to Summit Inc. as a result of the assumed conversion of LP Units, by the weighted-average common shares outstanding assuming dilution.

Table of Contents

The following table shows the calculation of basic income (loss) per share:


	Three months ended				Six months ended

Diluted earnings per share	$	0.21	$	(0.01)	$	(0.20)	$	(0.39)

Excluded from diluted earnings per share for the three months end July 2, 2016 were 38,418,311 LP Units and from the three months ended June 27, 2015 were 69,007,297 LP Units, 2,280,314 time-vesting stock options and 160,333 warrants as they were antidilutive.

Excluded from diluted earnings per share for the six months ended July 2, 2016 were 4,496,672 time vesting stock options, 360,812 restricted stock units and 130,691 performance stock units and from the six months ended June 27, 2015 were 2,280,314 time-vesting stock options and 160,333 warrants, as they were antidilutive.

In July 2016, Summit Inc. acquired 12,500,000 LP Units in exchange for 12,500,000 newly issued shares of Class A common stock. The increase in outstanding shares of Class A common stock and corresponding increase in Summit Inc.’s ownership of LP Units would have resulted in a proportional increase in earnings and shares and have no effect on earnings per share.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to certain legal actions arising from the ordinary course of business activities. Accruals are recorded when the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management expects that the ultimate resolution of all pending or threatened claims and litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity. The Company records legal fees as incurred.

Litigation and Claims—The Company is obligated under an indemnification agreement entered into with the sellers of Harper Contracting, Inc., Harper Sand and Gravel, Inc., Harper Excavating, Inc., Harper Ready Mix Company, Inc. and Harper Investments, Inc. for the sellers’ ownership interests in a joint venture agreement. The Company has the rights to any benefits under the joint venture as well as the assumption of any obligations, but does not own equity interests in the joint venture. The joint venture has incurred significant losses on a highway project in Utah, which have resulted in requests for funding from the joint venture partners and ultimately from the Company. Through July 2, 2016, the Company has funded $8.8 million, $4.0 million in 2012 and $4.8 million in 2011. In 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized losses on the indemnification agreement of $8.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively. As of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, an accrual of $4.3 million was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities as management’s best estimate of future funding obligations.

Table of Contents

Environmental Remediation and Site Restoration —The Company’s operations are subject to and affected by federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations relating to the environment, health and safety and other regulatory matters. These operations require environmental operating permits, which are subject to modification, renewal and revocation. The Company regularly monitors and reviews its operations, procedures and policies for compliance with these laws and regulations. Despite these compliance efforts, risk of environmental liability is inherent in the operation of the Company’s business, as it is with other companies engaged in similar businesses and there can be no assurance that environmental liabilities or noncompliance will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

The Company has site restoration obligations arising from regulatory and contractual requirements to perform reclamation activities at the time certain quarries and landfills are closed. As of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, $17.6 million and $18.7 million, respectively, were included in other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and $4.3 million and $2.0 million, respectively, were included in accrued expenses for future reclamation costs. The total undiscounted anticipated costs for site reclamation as of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016 were $64.2 million and $56.7 million, respectively.

Other—The Company is obligated under various firm purchase commitments for certain raw materials and services that are in the ordinary course of business. Management does not expect any significant changes in the market value of these goods and services during the commitment period that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. The terms of the purchase commitments generally approximate one year.

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has three operating segments: West; East; and Cement, which are its reporting segments. These segments are consistent with the Company’s management reporting structure. In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company reorganized the operations and management reporting structure of the Cement and East segment operations, resulting in a change to its reportable business segments. The Company now conducts the cement business separate from the regional segments. As a result, the cement business is a reportable business segment. In addition, we have combined the materials-based businesses centered in Kansas and Missouri with the Kentucky-based operations, creating an expanded East segment and eliminating what was the Central region. These changes did not affect the West segment. Amounts in prior periods have been revised to reflect the current reporting structure.

The operating results of each segment are regularly reviewed and evaluated by the Chief Executive Officer, the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM primarily evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on a segment profit metric that we call Adjusted EBITDA, which is computed as earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, accretion, share-based compensation, and transaction costs, as well as various other non-recurring, non-cash amounts.

The West and East segments have several acquired subsidiaries that are engaged in various activities including quarry mining, aggregate production and contracting. The Cement segment is engaged in the production of

Table of Contents

Portland cement. Assets employed by each segment include assets directly identified with those operations. Corporate assets consist primarily of cash, property, plant and equipment for corporate operations and other assets not directly identifiable with a reportable business segment. The accounting policies applicable to each segment are consistent with those used in the consolidated financial statements.

The following tables display selected financial data for the Company’s reportable business segments as of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016 and for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015:

14. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Under the terms of a transaction and management fee agreement between Summit Holdings and Blackstone Management Partners L.L.C. (“BMP”), whose affiliates include controlling stockholders of the Company, BMP provided monitoring, advisory and consulting services to the Company through March 17, 2015. Under the terms of the agreement, BMP was permitted to assign, and had assigned, a portion of the fees to which it was entitled to Silverhawk Summit, L.P. and to certain other equity investors.

The management fee was calculated based on the greater of $300,000 or 2.0% of the Company’s annual consolidated profit, as defined in the agreement, and is included in general and administrative expenses. The Company incurred management fees totaling $1.0 million during the period between December 28, 2014 and March 17, 2015.

In connection with the IPO, the transaction and management fee agreement with BMP was terminated on March 17, 2015 for a final payment of $13.8 million; $13.4 million was paid to affiliates of BMP and the remaining $0.4 million was paid to affiliates of Silverhawk Summit, L.P. and to certain other equity investors.

In addition to the transaction and management fees paid to BMP, the Company reimbursed BMP for direct expenses incurred, which were not material in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015.

Table of Contents

Blackstone Advisory Partners L.P., an affiliate of BMP, served as an initial purchaser of $18.8 million of the 2022 Notes issued in March 2016 and $22.5 million and $26.3 million of the 2023 Notes issued in November 2015 and July 2015, respectively, and received compensation in connection therewith. In addition, Blackstone Advisory Partners L.P. served as an underwriter of 1,681,875 shares of Class A common stock issued in connection with the August 2015 follow-on offering and received compensation in connection therewith.

On July 17, 2015, the Company purchased the Davenport Assets from Lafarge North America Inc. for a purchase price of $450.0 million in cash and a cement distribution terminal in Bettendorf, Iowa. At closing, $370.0 million of the purchase price was paid, and the remaining $80.0 million was paid on August 13, 2015. Summit Holdings entered into a commitment letter dated April 16, 2015, with Blackstone Capital Partners V L.P. (“BCP”) for equity financing up to $90.0 million in the form of a preferred equity interest (the “Equity Commitment Financing”), which would have been used to pay the $80.0 million deferred purchase price if other financing was not secured by December 31, 2015. For the Equity Commitment Financing, the Company paid a $1.8 million commitment fee to BCP for the year ended January 2, 2016.

15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Prior to the IPO, certain investors had equity in the Company that vested only if a performance objective of 3.0 times return on Blackstone’s initial investment was met. At the IPO Date, this equity was converted to LP Units and stock options. On August 9, 2016, the Board of Directors of Summit Inc. determined that it was in the best interest of the Company to waive the 3.0 times threshold. As a result, in the third quarter of 2016, the Company will recognize a charge of approximately $11 million to $13 million reflective of the cumulative catch up expense from the IPO date through August 2016 and will continue to recognize expense on the options over the remainder of the 4-year vesting period.

Overview

We are one of the fastest growing construction materials companies in the United States. Our materials include aggregates, which we supply across the country, with a focus on Texas, Kansas, Utah, Missouri and Kentucky, and cement, which we supply primarily in Missouri, Iowa and along the Mississippi River. Within our markets, we offer customers a single-source provider for construction materials and related downstream products through our vertical integration. In addition to supplying aggregates to customers, we use our materials internally to produce ready-mixed concrete and asphalt paving mix, which may be sold externally or used in our paving and related services businesses. Our vertical integration creates opportunities to increase aggregates volumes, optimize margin at each stage of production and provide customers with efficiency gains, convenience and reliability, which we believe gives us a competitive advantage.

We have completed 43 acquisitions, which are organized into 12 operating companies that make up our three distinct operating segments—West, East and Cement—spanning 20 U.S. states and British Columbia, Canada and 40 metropolitan statistical areas. Our highly experienced management team, led by our President and Chief Executive Officer, Tom Hill, a 35-year industry veteran, has successfully enhanced the operations of acquired companies by focusing on scale advantages, cost efficiencies and pricing discipline to improve profitability and cash flow.

As of July 2, 2016, we had 2.7 billion tons of proven and probable aggregates reserves serving our aggregates and cement businesses and operated over 310 sites and plants, to which we believe we have adequate road, barge and/or railroad access. From time to time, in connection with certain acquisitions, we engage a third party engineering firm to perform an aggregates reserves audit, but we do not perform annual reserve audits.

We operate in 24 U.S. states and British Columbia, Canada and currently have assets in 20 U.S. states and in British Columbia, Canada. The map below illustrates our geographic footprint:

Business Trends and Conditions

The U.S. construction materials industry is composed of four primary sectors: aggregates; cement; ready-mixed concrete; and asphalt paving mix. Each of these materials is widely used in most forms of construction activity. Participants in these sectors typically range from small, privately-held companies focused on a single material, product or market to multinational corporations that offer a wide array of construction materials and services. Competition is constrained in part by the distance materials can be transported efficiently, resulting in predominantly local or regional operations. Due to the lack of product differentiation, competition for all of our products is predominantly based on price and, to a lesser extent, quality of products and service. As a result, the prices we charge our customers are not likely to be materially different from the prices charged by other producers in the same markets. Accordingly, our profitability is generally dependent on the level of demand for our products and our ability to control operating costs.

Our revenue is derived from multiple end-use markets including private residential and nonresidential construction, as well as public infrastructure construction. Residential and nonresidential construction consists of new construction and repair and remodel markets. The construction sectors in the local economies in which we operate have begun to show signs of recovery. However, any economic stagnation or decline, which could vary by local region and market, could affect our results of operations. Our sales and earnings are sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions and particularly to cyclical changes in construction spending, especially in the private sector. From a macroeconomic view, we see positive indicators for the construction sector, including upward trends in housing starts, construction employment and highway obligations. All of these factors should result in increased construction activity in the private sector. However, we do not expect this recovery to be consistent across the United States. Certain of our markets are showing greater, more rapid signs of recovery. Increased construction activity in the private sector could lead to increased public infrastructure spending in the relatively near future. Public infrastructure includes spending by federal, state and local governments for roads, highways, bridges, airports and other infrastructure projects. Public infrastructure projects have historically been a relatively stable portion of state and federal budgets.

Table of Contents

Transportation infrastructure projects, driven by both federal and state funding programs, represent a significant share of the U.S. construction materials market. Federal funds are allocated to the states, which are required to match a portion of the federal funds they receive. Federal highway spending uses funds predominantly from the Federal Highway Trust Fund, which derives its revenue from taxes on diesel fuel, gasoline and other user fees. The dependability of federal funding allows the state departments of transportation to plan for their long term highway construction and maintenance needs. The FAST Act was signed into law on December 4, 2015 and authorizes $305 billion of funding between 2016 and 2020. Over its five year term, it provides funding for surface transportation infrastructure, including roads, bridges, transit systems, and the rail transportation network. With the nation’s infrastructure aging, we expect U.S. infrastructure spending to grow over the long term, and we believe we are well positioned to capitalize on any such increase.

In addition to federal funding, highway construction and maintenance funding is also available through state, county and local agencies. Each of our five largest states by revenue (Texas, Kansas, Utah, Missouri and Kentucky, which represented approximately 33%, 16%, 11%, 10% and 8%, respectively, of our total revenue in 2015) have funds whose revenue sources have certain constitutional protections that limit spending to transportation projects:

Texas Department of Transportation’s budget from 2014 to 2016 is $25.3 billion.

On November 3, 2015, voters in Texas passed an additional proposition that dedicates up to $2.5 billion of the state’s sales and use tax revenue to the state’s highway fund beginning in 2018, and 35% of any excess revenue over $5 billion generated from the motor vehicles sales tax beginning in 2020.

On November 4, 2014, voters in Texas passed a proposition that is estimated to provide up to $1.7 billion of incremental funding annually to the Texas Department of Transportation. The funds must be used for construction, maintenance, rehabilitation and acquiring right-of-way for public roads.

Kansas has a 10-year $8.2 billion highway bill that was passed in May 2010.

Utah’s transportation investment fund has $3.0 billion committed through 2018.

Missouri has an estimated $0.7 billion in annual construction funding committed to essential road and bridge programs through 2017.

Kentucky’s biennial highway construction plan has funding of $1.9 billion from July 2016 to June 2018.

Use and consumption of our products fluctuate due to seasonality. Nearly all of the products used by us, and by our customers, in the private construction and public infrastructure industries are used outdoors. Our highway operations and production and distribution facilities are also located outdoors. Therefore, seasonal changes and other weather-related conditions, in particular extended rainy and cold weather in the spring and fall and major weather events, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, tropical storms and heavy snows, can adversely affect our business and operations through a decline in both the use of our products and demand for our services. In addition, construction materials production and shipment levels follow activity in the construction industry, which typically occurs in the spring, summer and fall. Warmer and drier weather during the second and third quarters of our fiscal year typically result in higher activity and revenue levels during those quarters.

We are subject to commodity price risk with respect to price changes in liquid asphalt and energy, including fossil fuels and electricity for aggregates, cement, ready-mixed concrete and asphalt paving mix production, natural gas for hot mix asphalt production and diesel fuel for distribution vehicles and production related mobile equipment. Liquid asphalt escalator provisions in most of our private and commercial contracts limit our exposure to price fluctuations in this commodity. We often obtain similar escalators on public infrastructure contracts. In addition, we enter into various firm purchase commitments, with terms generally less than one year, for certain raw materials. Through effective use of our purchase commitments and a year on year decline in prices, our costs associated with liquid asphalt and energy have decreased $7.4 million and $9.8 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 27, 2015, respectively, taking into consideration organic and acquisition-related volume increases.

Our reporting unit based in Austin, Texas, where the economy has been expanding, has seen new market entrants, one of which is aggressively seeking market share. We will continue to monitor the effect of this activity to

Table of Contents

assess whether an event occurs that indicates the carrying amount of the Austin-based reporting unit may be impaired requiring a goodwill impairment analysis. We have not recognized a goodwill impairment charge on the reporting unit’s $17.7 million of goodwill as of July 2, 2016. The estimated fair value of the reporting unit was 8.9% greater than its carrying value as of the date of the 2015 impairment test. The key assumptions in the impairment analysis were cash flows assuming no to moderate growth from 2015 and an 11.0% discount rate.

Our acquisition strategy has historically required us to raise capital through equity issuances or debt financings. As of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, our long-term borrowings, including the current portion without giving effect to original issue discount, totaled $1,543.5 million and $1,296.8 million, respectively, for which we incurred $22.0 million and $40.2 million of interest expense for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, and $14.8 million and $36.8 million for the three and six months ended June 27, 2015, respectively. Although the amounts borrowed and related interest expense are material to us, we have been in compliance with our debt covenants and, when we have made additional issuances of senior notes to fund acquisitions, we have complied with the incurrence tests in the indentures governing our senior notes. In addition, our cash flows provided by operating activities was $98.2 million in the year ended January 2, 2016, which is net of interest payments, all of which have been paid when due, along with principal payments. Our senior secured revolving credit facility, which provides us with up to $209.4 million of borrowing capacity, net of $25.6 million of outstanding letters of credit, has been adequate to fund our seasonal working capital needs and certain acquisitions. We had $14.0 million of outstanding borrowings on the revolving credit facility as of July 2, 2016.

Backlog

Our products are generally delivered upon receipt of orders or requests from customers, or shortly thereafter. Accordingly, the backlog associated with product sales is converted into revenue within a relatively short period of time. Inventory for products is generally maintained in sufficient quantities to meet rapid delivery requirements of customers. Therefore, a period over period increase or decrease of backlog does not necessarily result in an improvement or a deterioration of our business. Our backlog includes only those products and projects for which we have obtained a purchase order or a signed contract with the customer and does not include products purchased and sold or services awarded and provided within the period. Subject to applicable contract terms, substantially all contracts in our backlog may be cancelled or modified by our customers. Historically, we have not been materially adversely affected by contract cancellations or modifications.

As a vertically-integrated business, approximately 24% of aggregates sold are used internally in our ready-mixed concrete and asphalt paving mixes and approximately 76% of the asphalt paving mix is laid by our paving crews during the six months ended July 2, 2016. Our backlog as of July 2, 2016, was 12.1 million tons of aggregates, 0.6 million cubic yards of ready-mixed concrete, 2.8 million tons of asphalt and $437.4 million of construction services, which includes the value of the aggregate and asphalt tons and ready-mixed concrete cubic yards that are expected to be sourced internally.

Financial Highlights

The principal factors in evaluating our financial condition and operating results for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 as compared to June 27, 2015, are:

Net revenue increased $83.6 million and $116.5 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 respectively, as a result of pricing and volume increases across our product lines, which includes volume contributions from our acquisitions.

Our operating income increased $4.4 million and $33.9 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016. The 2016 results included a $24.8 million stock-based compensation charge in general and administrative costs. Prior to the IPO, certain investors had equity in the company that vested only if a performance objective of 1.75 times return on Blackstone’s initial investment was met. At the IPO Date, this equity converted to LP Units and stock options. Prior to the second quarter of 2016, we did not recognize any expense associated with these awards as achievement of the 1.75 times multiple was not deemed probable. The 1.75 times return threshold became probable following completion of the April 2016 secondary offering. As a result, in the second quarter of 2016, we recognized the $24.8 million cumulative catch up expense from the IPO date through June 2016. We will continue to recognize expense on the

Table of Contents

options over the remaining 4-year vesting period. The 2015 results included $28.3 million of costs associated with Summit Inc.’s IPO.

In March 2016, we issued $250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.500% Senior Notes due 2022. The proceeds were used to help finance the acquisition of Boxley, replenish cash used for the acquisition of AMC and the expenses incurred in connection with these acquisitions.

Acquisitions

In addition to our organic growth, we continued to grow our business through acquisitions, completing the following transactions in 2016 and 2015:

On May 20, 2016, we acquired the Oldcastle Assets, seven aggregates quarries in central and northwest Missouri.

On April 29, 2016, we acquired Sierra, a vertically integrated aggregates and ready-mixed concrete business with one sand and gravel pit and two ready-mixed concrete plants located in Las Vegas, Nevada.

On March 18, 2016, we acquired Boxley, a vertically integrated company based in Roanoke, Virginia with six quarries, four ready-mixed concrete plants and four asphalt plants.

On February 5, 2016, we acquired AMC, an aggregates company with five sand and gravel pits servicing coastal North and South Carolina.

On December 11, 2015, we acquired Pelican, an asphalt terminal business in Houston, Texas.

On August 21, 2015, we acquired LeGrand, a vertically integrated company with five sand and gravel pits, four ready-mixed concrete plants and three asphalt plants and servicing the northern and central Utah, western Wyoming and southern Idaho markets.

On July 17, 2015, we completed the acquisition of the Davenport Assets. Combined with the Company's cement plant in Hannibal, Missouri, the Company has over two million short tons of cement capacity across our two plants and eight cement distribution terminals along the Mississippi River from Minneapolis, Minnesota to New Orleans, Louisiana.

On June 1, 2015, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Lewis & Lewis, a vertically integrated business in Wyoming.

Results of Operations

The following discussion of our results of operations is focused on the key financial measures we use to evaluate the performance of our business from both a consolidated and operating segment perspective. Operating income and margins are discussed in terms of changes in volume, pricing and mix of revenue source (i.e., type of product sales or service revenue). We focus on operating margin, which we define as operating income as a percentage of net revenue, as a key metric when assessing the performance of the business, as we believe that analyzing changes in costs in relation to changes in revenue provides more meaningful insight into the results of operations than examining costs in isolation.

Operating income reflects our profit from continuing operations after taking into consideration cost of revenue, general and administrative expenses, depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion and transaction costs. Cost of revenue generally increases ratably with revenue, as labor, transportation costs and subcontractor costs are recorded in cost of revenue. General and administrative costs as a percentage of revenue vary throughout the year due to the seasonality of our business. As a result of our revenue growth occurring primarily through acquisitions, general and administrative costs and depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion have historically grown ratably with revenue. However, as volumes increase, we expect these costs, as a percentage of revenue, to decrease. Our transaction costs fluctuate with the number and size of acquisitions completed each year.

The table below includes revenue and operating income (loss) by segment for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015.

Corporate results primarily consist of compensation and office expenses for employees included in the Company's headquarters. An approximate $24.8 million stock-based compensation charge associated with certain LP Units converted and options granted at the time of the IPO for which the performance metrics were deemed probable of occurring was recognized in the second quarter of 2016 and included in operating income in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016. Approximately $28.3 million of costs associated with the IPO were included in the operating loss for the six months ended June 27, 2015.

Non-GAAP Performance Measures

We evaluate our operating performance using metrics that we refer to as “Adjusted EBITDA,” "gross profit" and “gross margin” which are not defined by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to earnings measures defined by U.S. GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, as adjusted to exclude accretion, loss on debt financings, IPO costs, loss from discontinued operations and certain non-cash and non-operating items. We define gross profit as operating income before general and administrative costs, depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion and transaction costs and gross margin as gross profit as a percentage of net revenue.

We present Adjusted EBITDA, gross profit and gross margin for the convenience of investment professionals who use such metrics in their analyses. The investment community often uses these metrics to assess the operating performance of a company’s business and to provide a more consistent comparison of performance from period to period. We use Adjusted EBITDA and gross profit, among other metrics, to assess the operating performance of our individual segments and the consolidated company.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it may not be possible to compare such financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

The statement of operations above is based on the financial results of Summit Inc. Summit Inc.'s net income (loss) in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 was $254 thousand and $545 thousand greater, respectively, than Summit LLC's due to interest expense associated with a certain deferred consideration obligation that is an obligation of Summit Holdings and is thus excluded from Summit LLC's interest expense.

Net revenue increased $83.6 million in the three months ended July 2, 2016, of which $54.9 million was from increased sales of materials, $25.1 million was from increased sales of products, and $3.6 million was from increased service revenue. We had volume growth in our aggregates, cement and ready-mixed concrete lines of business, driven primarily by the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions. Excluding the cement segment, in the three months ended July 2, 2016, $56.5 million of the net revenue growth was from acquisitions, partially offset by a $18.1 million reduction in organic revenue. For the three months ended July 2, 2016, approximately $45.2 million of the revenue growth was attributable to our cement operations. The Davenport Assets acquired in July 2015 were immediately integrated with our existing cement operations such that it is impracticable to bifurcate the increase in cement revenue between organic and acquisition growth.

Net revenue increased $116.5 million in the six months ended July 2, 2016, of which $83.3 million was from increased sales of materials, $27.9 million was from increased sales of products, and $5.3 million was from increased service revenue. We had volume growth in our aggregates, cement and ready-mixed concrete lines of business, driven by

the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions and organic growth. Excluding the cement segment, in the six months ended July 2, 2016, $65.0 million of the net revenue growth was from acquisitions, partially offset by a $13.9 million reduction in organic revenue. For the six months ended July 2, 2016, approximately $65.4 million of the revenue growth was attributable to our cement operations.

As a vertically-integrated company, we include intercompany sales from materials to products and from products to services when assessing the operating results of our business. We refer to revenue inclusive of intercompany sales as gross revenue. These intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Gross revenue by line of business was as follows:

Gross revenue for paving and related services increased $6.1 million and decreased $2.2 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, primarily in the Austin, Texas market. In Austin, Texas where the economy has been expanding, a new aggressive entrant has entered the market and has attracted a number of our employees, which have collectively resulted in a decrease in our paving and related services revenue. Detail of our volumes and average selling prices by product in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015 were as follows:

Volumes are shown in tons for aggregates, cement and asphalt and in cubic yards for ready-mixed concrete.

Pricing is shown on a per ton basis for aggregates, cement and asphalt and on a per cubic yard basis for ready-mixed concrete.

Aggregates volumes were positively affected by the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions as well as strength in the Kansas and Missouri markets. This growth was partially offset by declines in the British Columbia and Austin, Texas markets. The decline in aggregate volumes in British Columbia is a result of a large sand river project in 2015 that has been completed. In Austin, Texas, a new aggressive competitor contributed to the decrease in our paving and related services revenue, in addition to the upstream aggregate and asphalt products. Aggregates pricing improved across our markets and would have been greater, absent the effect from the U.S./Canadian exchange rate. The U.S. dollar was stronger as compared to the Canadian dollar in the six months ended July 2, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 27, 2015. Absent the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, aggregates pricing would have increased 9.8% in the six months ended July 2, 2016.

Our cement volumes increased as a result of the July 2015 acquisition of the Davenport Assets and prices increased as a result of an improved market.

Table of Contents

The increase in ready-mixed concrete volumes was primarily as result of the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions and pricing generally increased by mid-single digit percentages in the organic operations, but was affected by the geographic mix as ready-mixed concrete producers acquired in 2015 were in lower-priced markets.

The decline in asphalt volumes in the six months ended July 2, 2016 from the six months ended June 27, 2015 occurred in the Austin, Texas and Wichita, Kansas markets, offset by increases in the north Texas and Utah markets, as well as from the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions. Absent the Austin, Texas market, asphalt volumes increased 5.6% in the same period primarily as a result of the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions. The decrease in Wichita, Kansas was primarily due to a shift in state work away from asphalt paving in that market. Asphalt pricing increased primarily due to product mix and a geographic shift to higher-priced markets, partially offset by lower input prices. Prior to eliminations, the net effect of these volume and pricing changes on gross revenue in the six months ended July 2, 2016 was approximately $81.4 million and $16.1 million, respectively.

Operating income increased $4.4 million and $33.9 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, and Adjusted EBITDA improved $36.6 million and $46.3 million, respectively. For the three months ended July 2, 2016 operating margin decreased from 12.9% to 11.3%, which was attributable to the following:


Operating margin—2015	12.9	%
Gross margin(1)	3.6	%
Other(2)	(5.2)	%
Operating margin—2016	11.3	%

In the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, we recognized a $24.8 million stock-based compensation charge in general and administrative costs associated with certain LP Units converted and options granted at the time of the IPO for which the performance metrics were deemed probable of occurring was recognized in the second quarter of 2016.

For the six months ended July 2, 2016 operating margin improved from (3.3)% to 2.8%, which was attributable to the following:

Other Financial Information

Loss on Debt Financings

In the three and six months ended June 27, 2015, we recognized a $30.9 million and $31.7 million, respectively, loss on debt financings related to the March 2015 amendment to the credit agreement and the April 2015 $288.2 redemption of 2020 Notes. On March 11, 2015, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Credit Agreement,

Table of Contents

which became effective on March 17, 2015 upon the consummation of the IPO. The amendment, among other things: (i) increased the size of the revolving credit facility from $150.0 million to $235.0 million; (ii) extended the maturity date of the revolving credit facility to March 11, 2020; (iii) amended certain covenants; and (iv) permits periodic tax distributions as contemplated in a tax receivable agreement, dated as of March 11, 2015, with Summit Holdings. In April 2015, using proceeds from the IPO, $288.2 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2020 Notes were redeemed at a price equal to par plus an applicable premium. As a result of the redemption, a net charge of $31.3 million was recognized, which was composed of $38.2 million for the applicable prepayment premium and $4.7 million for the write-off of deferred financing fees, which was partially offset by an $11.6 million net benefit from the write-off the original issuance premium and discount.

Gross revenue for paving and related services increased by $16.6 million and $8.8 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, primarily due to increased acquisition revenue. The West segment’s percent changes in sales volumes and pricing in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 from the six months ended June 27, 2015 were as follows:


	Three months ended				Six months ended
	Percentage Change in				Percentage Change in

Ready-mixed concrete	10.0	%	(1.8)	%	8.3	%	1.2	%
Asphalt	23.3	%	(0.1)	%	8.1	%	1.3	%

The decline in aggregates volumes was primarily in the British Columbia and Austin, Texas markets, partially offset by volume increases from the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions. Aggregates pricing improved across our markets and would have been greater, absent the effect from the U.S./Canadian exchange rate. The U.S. dollar was stronger as compared to the Canadian dollar in the six months ended July 2, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 27, 2015.

Table of Contents

Absent the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, aggregates pricing would have increased 11.3% in the six months ended July 2, 2016.

The increase in asphalt volumes was due to improvements in the north Texas and Utah markets, as well as from the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions, partially offset by a decrease in asphalt volumes in Austin, Texas. Asphalt pricing was generally consistent with the prior year periods despite lower input costs, as they were offset by pricing improvements due to product mix and a geographic shift to higher-priced markets. Prior to eliminations of intercompany transactions, the net effect of volume and pricing changes on gross revenue in the six months ended July 2, 2016 was approximately $10.7 million and $7.9 million, respectively.

The West segment’s operating income increased $7.1 million and $4.4 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, and Adjusted EBITDA improved $10.9 million and $12.2 million, respectively. The Adjusted EBITDA improvement was primarily driven by the 2015 and 2016 acquisitions of Sierra, Lewis & Lewis and LeGrand and improvement in our north Texas and Utah operations, partially offset by a decline in the Austin, Texas operations. Operating margin improved in the three months ended July 2, 2016 from 14.6% to 16.4%, which was attributable to the following:


Operating margin — 2015	14.6	%
Gross margin(1)	2.6	%
Other	(0.8)	%
Operating margin — 2016	16.4	%

The $10.5 million and $11.0 million decrease in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, in paving and related services was primarily a result of our exit of grading operations in Kentucky and a decrease in Wichita, Kansas, which was primarily due to a shift in state work away from asphalt paving in that market. The East segment’s percent changes in sales volumes and pricing in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 from the three and six months ended June 27, 2015 were as follows:


	Three months ended				Six months ended
	Percentage Change in				Percentage Change in
	Volume		Pricing		Volume		Pricing
Aggregates	27.8	%	7.3	%	34.6	%	5.7	%
Ready-mixed concrete	7.5	%	4.6	%	14.3	%	3.0	%
Asphalt	(33.3)	%	(0.6)	%	(28.8)	%	(1.5)	%

Aggregate volumes in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 increased 27.8% and 34.6%, respectively, primarily as a result of the AMC, Boxley, and Oldcastle Assets acquisitions on February 5, 2016, March 18, 2016, and May 20, 2016, respectively. Aggregates pricing increased as a result of an improved market and shift in product mix. Ready-mixed concrete volumes improved in Kansas and Missouri and pricing generally increased across the East region’s markets.

The decrease in asphalt volumes was driven by the shift in the Wichita, Kansas market and pricing decreased due to lower input costs. Prior to eliminations of intercompany transactions, the net effect of volume and pricing changes on gross revenue in the six months ended July 2, 2016 was approximately $16.0 million and $3.6 million, respectively.

The East segment’s operating income increased $2.6 million and $8.5 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, and Adjusted EBITDA increased $6.1 million and $12.8 million, respectively. Operating margin for the three months ended July 2, 2016 was relatively consistent with the operating margin for the three months ended June 27, 2015. Operating margin for the six months ended July 2, 2016 improved from 4.1% to 8.0%, which was attributable to the following:


Operating margin — 2015	4.1	%
Gross margin(1)	3.1	%
General and administrative	0.7	%
Other	0.1	%
Operating margin — 2016	8.0	%

(1)

The operating margin improvement in the East segment was partially due to a shift in product mix, increased organic volumes and price improvements across the segment’s markets. As shown in the table above, gross revenue from aggregates was 41.4% of the East segment’s total gross revenue in the six months ended July 2, 2016, compared to 34.9% in the six months ended June 27, 2015. Gross revenue from paving and related services, which

Table of Contents

generally has lower operating margins than materials and products, was 27.9% of total gross revenue in the six months ended July 2, 2016, compared to 39.7% in the six months ended June 27, 2015. Our business includes a significant amount of fixed costs and, as a result, volume growth across the East segment’s lines of business resulted in an improvement in gross margin.

Net revenue in the Cement segment increased $45.2 million and $65.4 million in three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, primarily as a result of the acquisition of the Davenport Assets in July 2015. However, a significant portion of the 131.4% and 135.8% increase in Cement revenue in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, is estimated to be a result of the acquisition of the Davenport Assets in July 2015. Gross revenue by product was as follows:


	Three months ended						Six months ended
	July 2,		June 27,				July 2,		June 27,
(in thousands)	2016		2015		Variance		2016		2015		Variance
Revenue by product*:
Cement	$	71,711	$	30,177	$	41,534	$	101,222	$	41,996	$	59,226

Total revenue	$	79,617	$	34,408	$	45,209	$	113,605	$	48,185	$	65,420

*Revenue by product includes intercompany and intracompany sales transferred at market value. Revenue from waste processing and the elimination of intracompany transactions is included in Other.

The Cement segment’s percent changes in sales volumes and pricing in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 from the six months ended June 27, 2015 were as follows:


	Three months ended				Six months ended
	Percentage Change in				Percentage Change in
	Volume		Pricing		Volume		Pricing
Cement	114.7	%	10.7	%	119.3	%	10.1	%

For the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, cement volumes and pricing increased primarily as a result of the acquisition of the Davenport Assets. With the acquisition of the Davenport Assets, we expanded our markets from Minnesota to Louisiana, which included higher-priced markets than St. Louis and Hannibal, Missouri. The net effect of volume and pricing changes on gross revenue in the six months ended July 2, 2016 was approximately $54.6 million and $4.6 million, respectively.

The Cement segment’s operating income increased $17.4 million and $20.2 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, and Adjusted EBITDA improved $21.8 million and $26.2 million, respectively. Operating margin for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 increased from 31.8% to 35.6% and from 8.0% to 21.1%, respectively, primarily attributable to pricing improvements and operational efficiencies. The operational efficiencies have been driven by a reduction in unscheduled downtime and improved cost management and production processes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity include cash on-hand, cash provided by operations, amounts available for borrowing under our credit facilities and capital-raising activities in the debt and capital markets. As of July 2, 2016, we had $9.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $175.5 million of working capital compared to cash and working

Table of Contents

capital of $186.4 million and $258.0 million, respectively, at January 2, 2016. Working capital is calculated as current assets less current liabilities. There were no restricted cash balances as of July 2, 2016 or January 2, 2016. Our remaining borrowing capacity on our senior secured revolving credit facility was $195.4 million as of July 2, 2016, which is net of $14.0 million of outstanding borrowings and $25.6 million of outstanding letters of credit, and is fully available to us within the terms and covenant requirements of our credit agreement.

Given the seasonality of our business, we typically experience significant fluctuations in working capital needs and balances throughout the year. Our working capital requirements generally increase during the first half of the year as we build up inventory and focus on repair and maintenance and other set-up costs for the upcoming season. Working capital levels then decrease as the construction season winds down and we enter the winter months, which is when we see significant inflows of cash from the collection of receivables. For example, net cash used for operating activities in the six months ended June 27, 2015 was $80.2 million, compared to full year 2015 net cash provided by operating activities of $98.2 million. Net cash used for operating activities in the six months ended months ended July 2, 2016 was $26.5 million.

We believe we have access to sufficient financial resources from our liquidity sources to fund our business and operations, including contractual obligations, capital expenditures and debt service obligations, for at least the next twelve months. Our growth strategy contemplates future acquisitions for which we believe we have sufficient access to capital.

As market conditions warrant, we and our equity holders, including our Sponsors and members of our management, may from time to time seek to purchase our outstanding debt securities or loans, including Senior Notes and borrowings under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Such transactions could be privately negotiated, open market transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Subject to any applicable limitations contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness, any purchases made by us may be funded by the use of cash on our balance sheet or the incurrence of new secured or unsecured debt. The amounts involved in any such purchase transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. Any such purchases may equate to a substantial amount of a particular class or series of debt, which may reduce the trading liquidity of such class or series.

Indebtedness

Please refer to the notes to the consolidated interim financial statements for detailed information about our long-term debt, scheduled maturities of long-term debt and affirmative and negative covenants, including the maximum allowable consolidated first lien net leverage ratio. As of July 2, 2016, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

At July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, $1,543.5 million and $1,296.8 million, respectively, of total debt, without giving effect to original issuance discount, were outstanding under our respective debt agreements. Summit LLC has senior secured credit facilities that provide for term loans in an aggregate amount of $650.0 million and revolving credit commitments in an aggregate amount of $235.0 million (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). Summit LLC’s domestic wholly-owned subsidiary companies are named as guarantors of the Senior Notes and the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Certain other partially-owned subsidiaries, and the wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, Mainland, do not guarantee the Senior Notes or Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Summit LLC has pledged substantially all of its assets as collateral for the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

On March 8, 2016, the Issuers issued $250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.500% senior notes due April 15, 2022. The 2022 notes were issued at par and interest on the 2022 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year commencing on October 15, 2016. The net proceeds of the 2022 Notes were used to fund the Boxley acquisition, replenish cash used for the AMC acquisition and the expenses incurred therewith.

In 2015, the Issuers issued $650.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes due July 15, 2023 under an indenture dated as of July 8, 2015 – $350.0 million on July 8, 2015 and $300.0 million on November 19, 2015. The July issuance of the 2023 notes was issued at par and the November add-on was issued at a discount. Interest on the 2023 notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year commencing on January 15, 2016.

In 2015, $625.0 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding 10 ½% senior notes due January 31, 2020 ("2020 Notes") were redeemed – $288.2 million in April 2015 using proceeds from the IPO, $183.0 million in August 2015 and $153.8 million in December 2015.

Table of Contents

On July 17, 2015, we refinanced our term loan under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (the “Refinancing”). The Refinancing, among other things: (i) reduced the applicable margins used to calculate interest rates for term loans under our senior secured credit facilities to 3.25% for LIBOR rate loans and 2.25% for base rate loans, subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.00% (and one 25 basis point step down upon Summit LLC achieving a certain first lien net leverage ratio); (ii) increased term loans borrowed under our term loan facility from $422.0 million to $650.0 million; and (iii) created additional flexibility under the financial maintenance covenants, which are tested quarterly, by increasing the applicable maximum Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the amended and restated credit agreement that governs the senior secured credit facilities).

We used the net proceeds from the 2023 Notes and the Refinancing to finance the initial $370.0 million cash to purchase the Davenport Assets, to refinance our existing senior secured term loan facility, to redeem $183.0 million aggregate principal amount of our then outstanding 2020 Notes and to pay related fees and expenses.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our net cash used for or provided by operating, investing and financing activities and our capital expenditures in the six months ended July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015:


	July 2,		June 27,
(in thousands)	2016		2015
Net cash (used for) provided by
Operating activities	$	(26,500)	$	(80,224)
Investing activities		(377,391)		(52,593)
Financing activities		226,156		132,032
Cash paid for capital expenditures	$	(91,669)	$	(43,379)

Operating activities

During the six months ended July 2, 2016, cash used in operating activities was $26.5 million primarily as a result of:

Net loss of $21.0 million, adjusted for $92.4 million of non-cash expenses, including $76.3 million of depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion and $29.8 million of share-based compensation.

Additional investment in inventory of $27.9 million consistent with the seasonality of our business for which our inventory levels typically increase in the first half of the year in preparation for the upcoming season.

$80.0 million of accounts receivable (billed and unbilled) as a result of the seasonality of our business. The majority of our sales occur in the spring, summer and fall and we typically incur an increase in accounts receivable (net billed and unbilled) during the second and third quarters of each year. This amount is typically converted to cash in the fourth and first quarters.

The timing of payments associated with accounts payable and accrued expenses added $20.0 million of cash, which is consistent with the seasonality of our business whereby we build-up inventory levels and incur repairs and maintenance costs to ready the business for increased sales volumes in the summer and fall. These costs are typically incurred in the second quarter and paid in the third. In addition, we made $34.1 million of interest payments in the six months ended July 2, 2016.

During the six months ended June 27, 2015, cash used in operating activities was $80.2 million primarily as a result of:

Net loss of $79.8 million, adjusted for $64.9 million of non-cash expenses, including $57.1 million of depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion and $17.0 million of share-based compensation expense.

$16.6 million utilized to increase inventory consistent with the seasonality of our business.

$8.1 million associated with the timing of accounts payable and accrued expenses, which reflects $49.3 million of interest payments. Absent the effect of interest payments, accounts payable and accrued expenses would have contributed to operating cash flow by $4.5 million, which is consistent with the seasonality of our business.

$36.0 million of increased accounts receivable (billed and unbilled) as a result of the seasonality of our business. The majority of our sales occur in the spring, summer and fall and we typically incur an increase in accounts receivable (net billed and unbilled) during the second and third quarters of each year. This amount is typically converted to cash in the fourth and first quarters.

Investing activities

During the six months ended July 2, 2016, cash used for investing activities was $377.4 million, of which $296.7 million related to the acquisitions of AMC, Boxley Sierra and the Oldcastle Assets and $91.7 million was invested in capital expenditures, which was partially offset by $9.4 million of proceeds from asset sales.

During the six months ended June 27, 2015, cash used for investing activities was $52.6 million, of which $43.4 million was invested in capital expenditures and $15.9 million related to the acquisition of Lewis & Lewis, which was partially offset by $6.0 million of proceeds from asset sales.

Financing activities

During the six months ended July 2, 2016, cash provided by financing activities was $226.2 million, which was primarily composed of $246.3 million of proceeds from the 2022 Notes, net of fees and $14.0 million of borrowings from our revolving credit facility. Summit made $25.7 million of payments on acquisition related liabilities, and $5.1 million in debt issuance costs.

During the six months ended June 27, 2015, cash provided by financing activities was $132.0 million, which was primarily composed of $460.0 million of proceeds from Summit Inc.’s IPO. Summit Inc. sold 25.6 million shares of Class A common stock in the first quarter of 2015, receiving $424.0 million of proceeds, net of underwriter and other issuance costs. Summit Inc. utilized $35.0 million of the proceeds for the purchase of the noncontrolling interest of Continental Cement. The remaining proceeds were contributed to Summit LLC to redeem $288.2 million aggregate principal amount of then outstanding 2020 Notes at a redemption price equal to par plus an applicable premium of $38.2 million and $5.2 million of accrued and unpaid interest. We also made $12.0 million of payments on acquisition related liabilities and paid $5.1 million in debt issuance costs.

Cash paid for capital expenditures

We expended approximately $91.7 million in capital expenditures in the six months ended July 2, 2016 compared to $43.4 million in the six months ended June 27, 2015. The first quarter 2016 capital expenditures were primarily composed of plant upgrades and rolling stock.

We estimate that we will invest between $150.0 million and $170.0 million in capital expenditures in 2016, which we have funded or expect to fund through cash on hand, cash from operations, outside financing arrangements and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility. In 2016, we expect to invest in Texas, including approximately $23.7 million on new aggregate and ready-mixed concrete plants near Houston, $7.3 million on an aggregate plant upgrade near Austin and the completion of a new asphalt plant in San Antonio. We also plan to invest approximately $7.5 million on upgrades to our aggregate plants in Kentucky and South Carolina.

Commitments and contingencies

We are party to certain legal actions arising from the ordinary course of business activities. Accruals are recorded when the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management expects that the ultimate resolution of all pending or

Table of Contents

threatened claims and litigation will not have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity. We record legal fees as incurred.

Litigation and Claims—We are obligated under an indemnification agreement entered into with the sellers of Harper Contracting for the sellers’ ownership interests in a joint venture agreement. We have the rights to any benefits under the joint venture as well as the assumption of any obligations, but do not own equity interests in the joint venture. The joint venture has incurred significant losses on a highway project in Utah, which have resulted in requests for funding from the joint venture partners and ultimately from us. Through July 2, 2016, we have funded $8.8 million, $4.0 million in 2012 and $4.8 million in 2011. In 2012 and 2011, we recognized losses on the indemnification agreement of $8.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively. As of July 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, an accrual of $4.3 million was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities as management’s best estimate of future funding obligations.

Environmental Remediation—Our operations are subject to and affected by federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations relating to the environment, health and safety and other regulatory matters. These operations require environmental operating permits, which are subject to modification, renewal and revocation. We regularly monitor and review its operations, procedures and policies for compliance with these laws and regulations. Despite these compliance efforts, risk of environmental liability is inherent in the operation of our business, as it is with other companies engaged in similar businesses and there can be no assurance that environmental liabilities and noncompliance will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Other—We are obligated under various firm purchase commitments for certain raw materials and services that are in the ordinary course of business. Management does not expect any significant changes in the market value of these goods and services during the commitment period that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. The terms of the purchase commitments generally approximate one year.

Off-Balance sheet arrangements

As of July 2, 2016, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions that are entered into in the normal course of business.

These marketplaces could experience lower levels of economic activity in an environment of rising interest rates or escalating costs. For a discussion of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, please refer to the Annual Report from which our exposure to market risk has not materially changed.

ITEM 5.OTHER INFORMATION

Appointment of New Director

Effective August 9, 2016, the Board of Directors of Summit Inc. increased the size of the Board from eight to nine members and appointed Steven H. Wunning as a director of the Company and member of the Compensation Committee of the Board. The Board affirmatively determined that Mr. Wunning is independent under the guidelines for director independence set forth under applicable independence standards, including the New York Stock Exchange rules. Mr. Wunning will serve as a Class II director whose term will expire at the Company’s 2017 annual meeting of stockholders.

Mr. Wunning will receive compensation consistent with our compensation plan for independent directors, which includes an annual cash retainer of $100,000, prorated for Mr. Wunning’s service in 2016, and an annual equity award valued at $100,000, which he will receive in full for 2016. Mr. Wunning may also receive compensation, from time to time, for service on any special committees of the Board. The Company may reimburse Mr. Wunning for reasonable expenses that he incurs in connection with services provided in his capacity as a director of the Board.

Equity Award Modification

Prior to the IPO, certain investors had equity in the Company that vested only if either a performance objective of 1.75 or 3.00 times return on Blackstone’s initial investment was met. At the IPO Date, this equity was converted to LP Units and stock options. Upon closing of Blackstone’s most recent secondary offering of shares of our Class A common stock on July 19, 2016, the 1.75 times hurdle condition was achieved satisfying the investment return condition associated with approximately 77% of the performance-vesting LP Units and options.

Table of Contents

On August 9, 2016, the Board of Directors of Summit Inc. determined that it was in the best interest of the Company to waive the 3.00 times threshold on the remaining performance-based awards. As a result, in the third quarter of 2016, we will recognize a charge of approximately $11 million to $13 million reflective of the cumulative catch up expense from the IPO date through August 2016 and will continue to recognize expense on the options over the remainder of the 4-year vesting period.

The number of modified equity awards attributable to the Company’s named executive officers is 171,333 LP Units and 167,752 options for Thomas W. Hill, 54,843 LP Units and 53,096 options for Michael J. Brady, 38,210 LP Units and 38,558 options for Douglas C. Rauh, 35,957 LP Units and 30,360 options for Brian J. Harris and 38,458 LP Units and 37,226 options for Damian J. Murphy. The estimated incremental fair value of the LP Units calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 ("ASC Topic 718") as of the date modified is between $3.4 million and $3.6 million for Mr. Hill, between $1.1 million and $1.2 million for Mr. Brady and between $0.7 million and $0.8 million for Mr. Rauh, Mr. Harris and Mr. Murphy. The estimated incremental fair value of the options calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 718 as of the date modified is between $1.1 million and 1.3 million for Mr. Hill, between $0.4 million and $0.5 million for Mr. Brady and between $0.2 million and $0.3 million for each of Mr. Rauh, Mr. Harris and Mr. Murphy.
