NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements of Apogee Enterprises, Inc. (we, us, our or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended March 2, 2024. We use the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. All adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of quarterly and year to date operating results are reflected herein and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the three-month period ended June 1, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

New accounting standards

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands the required disclosure for reportable segments. This guidance requires entities to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim periods all segment disclosures which are currently required annually. This ASU additionally requires entities to disclose the title and position of the individual or the name of the group or committee identified as its chief operating decision-maker. Such guidance, which is required to be applied retrospectively, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. While the adoption of this ASU will not have an impact on our financial position and/or results of operations, we are currently evaluating the impact to our segment disclosures for the year ended March 1, 2025 and future interim periods.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, intended to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures. Such guidance requires entities to provide additional information within their income tax rate reconciliation, including further disclosure of federal, state, and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about these reconciling items if a quantitative threshold is met. This guidance additionally requires expanded disclosure of income taxes paid, including amounts paid for federal, state, and foreign taxes. This ASU, which is required to be applied prospectively, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, although early adoption and retrospective application is permitted. While the adoption of this ASU will not have an impact on our financial position and/or results of operations, we are currently evaluating the impact on our income tax disclosures, including the processes and controls around the collection of this information.

2.Revenue, Receivables and Contract Assets and Liabilities

Revenue

The following table disaggregates total revenue by timing of recognition (see Note 12 for disclosure of revenue by segment):


	Three Months Ended
(In thousands)		June 1, 2024		May 27, 2023
Recognized at shipment		$	136,722	$	152,655
Recognized over time (input method)		116,681		123,381
Recognized over time (output method)		78,113		85,677
Total		$	331,516	$	361,713

Receivables

Receivables reflected in the financial statements represent the net amount expected to be collected. An allowance for credit losses is established based on expected losses. Expected losses are estimated by reviewing individual accounts, considering aging, financial condition of the debtor, recent payment history, current and forecasted economic conditions and other relevant factors. Upon billing, aging of receivables is monitored until collection. An account is considered current when it is within agreed upon payment terms. An account is written off when it is determined that the asset is no longer collectible.

Contract assets and liabilities

Contract assets consist of retainage, costs and earnings in excess of billings and other unbilled amounts typically generated when revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Retainage on construction contracts represents amounts withheld by our customers on long-term projects until the project reaches a level of completion where amounts are released to us from the customer. Contract liabilities consist of billings in excess of costs and earnings and other deferred revenue on contracts.

The time period between when performance obligations are complete and payment is due is not significant. In certain parts of our business that recognize revenue over time, progress billings follow an agreed-upon schedule of values.

The changes in contract assets and contract liabilities were mainly due to timing of project activity within our businesses that operate under long-term contracts.


Other contract-related disclosures	Three Months Ended
(In thousands)		June 1, 2024		May 27, 2023
Revenue recognized related to contract liabilities from prior year-end		$	26,530	$	22,745
Revenue recognized related to prior satisfaction of performance obligations		3,298		427

Some of our contracts have an expected duration of longer than a year, with performance obligations extending over that time frame. Generally, these contracts are found in our businesses that typically operate with long-term contracts, which recognize revenue over time. The transaction prices associated with unsatisfied performance obligations at June 1, 2024 are expected to be satisfied, and the corresponding revenue to be recognized, over the following estimated time periods:


(In thousands)	June 1, 2024

4.Financial Instruments

Marketable securities

Through our wholly-owned insurance subsidiary, Prism Assurance, Ltd. (Prism), we hold the following available-for-sale marketable securities, made up of fixed-maturity investments:


(In thousands)	Amortized Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses		Estimated Fair Value
June 1, 2024	$	11,455	$	19	$	448	$	11,026
March 2, 2024	11,327		15		437		10,905

Prism insures a portion of our general liability, workers’ compensation and automobile liability risks using reinsurance agreements to meet statutory requirements. The reinsurance carrier requires Prism to maintain fixed-maturity investments for the purpose of providing collateral for Prism’s obligations under the reinsurance agreements.

The amortized cost and estimated fair values of these investments at June 1, 2024, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities, as borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without penalty.


(In thousands)	Amortized Cost		Estimated Fair Value
Due within one year	$	3,625	$	3,608
Due after one year through five years	7,830		7,418



Total	$	11,455	$	11,026

Derivative instruments

We use interest rate swaps, currency put options, and forward purchase contracts to manage risks generally associated with foreign exchange rate, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations. The information that follows explains the various types of derivatives and financial instruments we use, how such instruments are accounted for, and how such instruments impact our financial position and performance.

In fiscal 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap to hedge exposure to variability in cash flows from interest payments on our floating-rate revolving credit facility. As of June 1, 2024, the interest rate swap contract had a notional value of $30.0 million and has a maturity date of February 5, 2026.

We periodically enter into forward purchase contracts and/or fixed/floating swaps to manage the risk associated with fluctuations in aluminum prices and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. These contracts generally have an original maturity date of less than one year. As of June 1, 2024, we held aluminum purchase contracts and foreign exchange option contracts with U.S. dollar notional values of $4.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

The mark to market adjustments on these derivative instruments are recorded within our consolidated balance sheets within other current assets and other current liabilities. Gains or losses associated with these instruments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until which time the hedged transaction is settled and gains or losses are reclassified to net earnings.

Fair value measurements

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement: Level 1 (unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities); Level 2 (observable market inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1); and Level 3 (unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data). We do not have any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities.

5.Debt

As of June 1, 2024, we had a committed revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as administrative agent, and other lenders (U.S. credit facility) with maximum borrowings of up to $385 million and a maturity date of August 5, 2027. Outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility were $65.0 million and $50.0 million as of June 1, 2024 and March 2, 2024, respectively.

We also maintain two Canadian committed, revolving credit facilities with the Bank of Montreal totaling $25.0 million USD (Canadian facilities). The Canadian facilities expire annually in February, but can be renewed each year solely at our discretion until August 2027. Therefore, we have classified all outstanding amounts under these facilities as long-term debt within our consolidated balance sheets. As of June 1, 2024 and March 2, 2024, we had no outstanding borrowings under these Canadian facilities.

Our revolving credit facilities contain two maintenance financial covenants that require us to stay below a maximum debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 3.25 and maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA-to-interest expense of 3.00. Both ratios are computed quarterly, with EBITDA calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis. At June 1, 2024, we were in compliance with both financial covenants.

The revolving credit facilities also contain an acquisition holiday. In the event we make an acquisition for which the purchase price is greater than $75 million, we can elect to increase the maximum debt-to-EBITDA ratio to 3.75 for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, commencing with the fiscal quarter in which a qualifying acquisition occurs. No more than two acquisition "holidays" can occur during the term of the facility, and at least two fiscal quarters must separate qualifying acquisitions.

Borrowings under the credit facilities bear floating interest at either the Base Rate or Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), or, in the case of the Canadian facilities, Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (CORRA) plus, in each a margin based on the Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreements). For Base Rate borrowings, the margin ranges from 0.125% to 0.75%. For Term SOFR and CORRA borrowings, the margin ranges from 1.125% to 1.75%, with an incremental Term SOFR and CORRA adjustment of 0.10% and 0.29547%, respectively.

The U.S. credit facility also contains an "accordion" provision. Under this provision, we can request that the facility be increased by as much as $200.0 million. Any lender may elect or decline to participate in the requested increase at their sole discretion.

At June 1, 2024, we had a total of $15.0 million of ongoing letters of credit related to industrial revenue bonds, construction contracts and insurance collateral that expire in fiscal years 2026 through 2032 and reduce borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility. As of June 1, 2024, the amount available for revolving borrowings was $305.0 million and $25.0 million under the U.S. credit facility and Canadian facilities, respectively.

At June 1, 2024, debt included $12.0 million of industrial revenue bonds that mature in fiscal years 2036 through 2043.

Table of Contents

The fair value of our U.S. credit facility, Canadian credit facilities and industrial revenue bonds approximated carrying values at June 1, 2024, and would be classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy described in Note 4, due to the variable interest rates on these instruments.


(In thousands)	June 1, 2024		May 27, 2023
Interest on debt	$	1,174	$	2,510
Interest rate swap gain	(236)		(267)
Other interest expense	21		28
Interest income	$	(509)	$	(235)
Interest expense, net	$	450	$	2,036

Interest payments under the U.S. and Canadian credit facilities were $1.1 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended June 1, 2024 and May 27, 2023, respectively.

6.Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Bond commitments

In the ordinary course of business, predominantly in our Architectural Services and Architectural Framing Systems Segments, we are required to provide surety or performance bonds that commit payments to our customers for any non-performance. At June 1, 2024, $1.3 billion of these types of bonds were outstanding, of which $434.7 million is in our backlog. These bonds have expiration dates that align with completion of the sales order or contract. We have never been required to make payments under surety or performance bonds with respect to our existing businesses.

Warranty and project-related contingencies

We reserve estimated exposures on known claims, as well as on a portion of anticipated claims, for product warranty and rework cost, based on historical product liability claims as a ratio of sales. Claim costs are deducted from the accrual when paid. Factors that could have an impact on these accruals in any given period include the following: changes in manufacturing quality, changes in product mix, and any significant changes in sales volume.

Balance at beginning of period	$	21,362
Additional accruals	2,399

Additionally, we are subject to project management and installation-related contingencies as a result of our fixed-price material supply and installation service contracts, primarily in our Architectural Services Segment and in certain parts of our Architectural Framing Systems Segment. We manage the risk of these exposures through contract negotiations, proactive project management and insurance coverages.

Letters of credit

At June 1, 2024, we had $15.0 million of ongoing letters of credit, all of which have been issued under our committed revolving credit facility, as discussed in Note 5.

Purchase obligations

Purchase obligations for raw material commitments and capital expenditures totaled $17.9 million as of June 1, 2024.

New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) transactions

We have two outstanding NMTC arrangements which help to support operational expansion. Proceeds received from investors on these transactions are included within other non-current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. The NMTC arrangements are subject to 100 percent tax credit recapture for a period of seven years from the date of each respective transaction. Upon the termination of each arrangement, these proceeds will be recognized in earnings in exchange for the transfer of tax credits. The direct and incremental costs incurred in structuring these arrangements have been deferred and are included in other non-current assets in our consolidated balance sheets. These costs will be recognized in conjunction with the recognition of the related proceeds on each arrangement. During the construction phase or for working capital purposes for each

Table of Contents

project, we are required to hold cash dedicated to fund each project, which is classified as restricted cash in our consolidated balance sheets. As a result of the structure of these transactions, variable-interest entities were created. As the other investors in these programs do not have a material interest in the entities' underlying economics, we include 100% of the results of the variable-interest entities in our consolidated financial statements.

The table below provides a summary of estimated benefits related to our outstanding NMTC transactions (in thousands):

Litigation

The Company is a party to various legal proceedings incidental to its normal operating activities. In particular, like others in the construction supply and services industry, the Company is routinely involved in various disputes and claims arising out of construction projects, sometimes involving significant monetary damages or product replacement. We have in the past and are currently subject to product liability and warranty claims, including certain legal claims related to a commercial sealant product formerly incorporated into our products. In December 2022, the claimant in an arbitration of one such claim was awarded $20 million. The Company has appealed the award and believes, after taking into account all currently available information, including the advice of counsel and the likelihood of available insurance coverage, that this award will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is also subject to litigation arising out of areas such as employment practices, workers compensation and general liability matters. Although it is very difficult to accurately predict the outcome of any such proceedings, facts currently available indicate that no matters will result in losses that would have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial condition of the Company.

7.Supplier Finance Program Obligations

In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we implemented a supplier financing arrangement that enables our suppliers, at their sole discretion, to sell our receivables (i.e., our payment obligations to the suppliers) on a non-recourse basis in order to be paid earlier than our payment terms provide. Our suppliers’ voluntary inclusion of invoices in the supplier financing arrangement has no bearing on our payment terms, the amounts we pay, or our liquidity. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate in the supplier financing program, and we do not provide any guarantees in connection with it. These balances are reflected in accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets and are reflected in net cash provided by operating activities in our consolidated statements of cash flows when settled.

The following table summarizes the obligation activity and outstanding balances as of June 1, 2024 and March 2, 2024 that we have confirmed as valid to the administrators of our program:


(In thousands)	June 1, 2024		March 2, 2024

8.Shareholders' Equity

We declared dividends totaling $5.4 million ($0.25 per share) in the first three months of fiscal 2025, compared to dividends paid of $5.2 million ($0.24 per share) in the comparable prior year period.

During fiscal 2004, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program allowing us to repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock, with subsequent increases in authorization. During the three-months ended June 1, 2024, we repurchased 241,573 shares under the program, for a total cost of $15.1 million, inclusive of the applicable excise tax. During the three-months ended May 27, 2023, we repurchased 119,916 shares under the program, for a total cost of $5.2 million. We have repurchased a total of 11,518,090 shares, at a total cost of $408.5 million, since the inception of this program in fiscal 2004. We have remaining authority to repurchase 2,731,910 shares under this program, which has no expiration date. We may also elect to repurchase additional shares of common stock under our authorization, subject to limitations contained in our debt

Table of Contents

agreements and based upon our assessment of a number of factors, including share price, trading volume and general market conditions, working capital requirements, general business conditions, financial conditions, any applicable contractual limitations, and other factors, including alternative investment opportunities. We may finance share repurchases with available cash, additional debt or other sources of financing.

9.Share-Based Compensation

As part of our compensation structure, we grant stock-based compensation awards to certain employees and non-employee directors during the fiscal year. These awards may be in the form of incentive stock options (to employees only), nonstatutory options, or nonvested share awards and units, all of which are granted at a price or with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s stock at the date of award, unless the date of the award is on a day the Nasdaq Stock Market is not open for trading, then the exercise price shall equal the fair market value on the most recent preceding date when such market is open.

The table below sets forth the number of stock-based compensation awards granted during the three-months ended June 1, 2024, along with the weighted average grant date fair value:


Awards	Number of Awards	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Restricted stock awards and restricted stock units(1)	91,957	$	62.25
Performance share units (2)	35,332	$	62.53

(1) Represent service condition awards which generally vest over a two- or three-year period.
(2) Represent performance condition awards with the grant equal to the target number of performance shares based on the share price at grant date. These grants allow for the right to receive a variable number of shares, between 0% and 200% of target, dependent on being employed at the end of the performance period and achieving defined performance goals for average return on invested capital and cumulative earnings per share.

Total share-based compensation expense included in the results of operations was $2.7 million for the three-month period ended June 1, 2024, and $2.2 million for the three-month period ended May 27, 2023.

At June 1, 2024, there was $10.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share and nonvested share unit awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 19 months. The total fair value of shares vested during the three-months ended June 1, 2024 was $9.0 million.

10.Income Taxes

We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. state and local jurisdictions, Canada, Brazil and other international jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for years prior to fiscal 2021, or state and local income tax examinations for years prior to fiscal 2015. We are not currently under U.S. federal examination for years subsequent to fiscal year 2020, and there is very limited audit activity of our income tax returns in U.S. state jurisdictions or international jurisdictions.

For interim periods, our income tax expense and resulting effective tax rate are based upon an estimated annual effective tax rate adjusted for the effects of items required to be treated as discrete to the period, including changes in tax laws, changes in estimated exposures for uncertain tax positions and other items. Income tax expense as a percentage of earnings before income tax was 24.5%, compared to 25.0% for the same period last year. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a decrease in tax expense for discrete items, partially offset by an increase in non-deductible executive compensation expense.

The total liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $5.6 million at June 1, 2024 compared to $5.1 million at March 2, 2024, respectively. Penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in income tax expense.

12.Business Segment Data

We have four reporting segments:

•The Architectural Framing Systems Segment designs, engineers, fabricates and finishes aluminum window, curtainwall, storefront and entrance systems for the exterior of buildings.

•The Architectural Glass Segment coats and fabricates, high-performance glass used in custom window and wall systems on non-residential buildings.

•The Architectural Services Segment integrates technical services, project management, and field installation services to design, engineer, fabricate, and install building glass and curtainwall systems.

•The Large-Scale Optical (LSO) Segment manufactures high-performance glass and acrylic products for the custom framing, fine art, and engineered optics markets.

Segment net sales is defined as net sales for a certain segment and includes revenue related to intersegment transactions. We report net sales intersegment eliminations separately to exclude these sales from our consolidated total. Segment operating income is equal to net sales, less cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses, and any asset impairment charges associated with the segment. Segment operating income includes operating income related to intersegment sales transactions and excludes certain corporate costs that are not allocated at a segment level. We report these unallocated corporate costs in Corporate and Other. Operating income does not include other income or expense, interest expense or a provision for income taxes.

Due to the varying combinations and integration of individual window, storefront and curtainwall systems, it is impractical to report product revenues generated by class of product, beyond the segment revenues currently reported.

13.Restructuring

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, we announced strategic actions to further streamline our business operations, enable a more efficient cost model, and better position the Company for profitable growth (referred to as “Project Fortify”). Project Fortify primarily impacts the Architectural Framing Systems Segment and includes:

•Eliminating certain lower-margin product and service offerings, enabling consolidation into a single operating entity.

•Transferring production operations from the Company’s facility in Walker, Michigan, to the Company’s facilities in Monett, Missouri and Wausau, Wisconsin.

•Simplifying the segment’s brand portfolio and commercial model to improve flexibility, better leverage the Company’s capabilities, and enhance customer service.

Additionally, the Company has implemented actions to optimize processes and streamline resources in its Architectural Services Segment and Corporate.

The Company expects these actions to be substantially complete by the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The Company now expects to incur approximately $15.0 million to $16.0 million of pre-tax charges in connection with Project Fortify leading to annualized cost savings of $12 million to $14 million. Restructuring charges are expected to include:

•$6.5 million to $7.5 million of severance and employee related costs;

•$1.5 million to $2.0 million of contract termination costs: and

•$6.5 million to $7.0 million of other expenses.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, we incurred $1.1 million of pre-tax costs associated with Project Fortify, of which $0.6 million was included within cost of sales and $0.5 million was included within selling, general and administrative expenses. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, we incurred $12.4 million of pre-tax costs associated with Project Fortify, of which $5.5 million was included within cost of sales and $6.9 million was included within selling, general and administrative expenses.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-looking statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains certain statements that are considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “should,” "will," "continue" or similar words or expressions. All forecasts and projections in this document are “forward-looking statements,” and are based on management’s current expectations or beliefs of the Company's near-term results, based on current information available pertaining to the Company. From time to time, we may also provide oral and written forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public, such as press releases, presentations to securities analysts or investors, or other communications by the Company. Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this report and in any public statements we make could be materially different from actual results.

Accordingly, we wish to caution investors that any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company are subject to uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements. These uncertainties and other risk factors include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties set forth under “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 2, 2024 and in subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We also wish to caution investors that other factors might in the future prove to be important in affecting the Company’s results of operations. New factors emerge from time to time; it is not possible for management to predict all such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or a combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Measures

We have included in this report measures of financial performance that are not defined by U.S. GAAP. We believe that these measures provide useful information and include these measures in other communications to investors. For each of these non-GAAP financial measures, we provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP measure and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure (see "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" in this Item 2 below), and an explanation of why we believe the non-GAAP measure provides useful information to management and investors. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, the comparable U.S. GAAP measure.

Overview

We are a leading provider of architectural products and services for enclosing buildings, and high-performance glass and acrylic products used in applications for preservation, protection and enhanced viewing. Our four reporting segments are: Architectural Framing Systems, Architectural Glass, Architectural Services and Large-Scale Optical (LSO).

Our enterprise strategy is based on the following three key elements:

1.Become the economic leader in our target markets. We are developing a deep understanding of our target markets and aligning our businesses with clear go-to-market strategies to drive value for our customers through differentiated product and service offerings. We are focused on operational execution, driving productivity improvements, and maintaining a competitive cost structure, so that we may bring more value to our customers and improve our own profitability.

2.Actively manage our portfolio to drive higher margins and returns. We are shifting our business mix toward higher operating margin offerings in order to improve our return on invested capital performance. We expect to accomplish this by allocating resources to grow our top performing businesses, actively addressing underperforming businesses, and investing to add new differentiated product and service offerings to accelerate our growth and increase margins.

3.Strengthen our core capabilities. We are shifting from our historical, decentralized operating model to one with center-led functional expertise that enables us to leverage the scale of the enterprise to better support the needs of the business. In fiscal 2022, we established a Company-wide operating system with common tools and processes based on the foundation of Lean and Continuous Improvement, which we call the "Apogee Management System". Our strategy is supported by a robust talent management program and a commitment to strong governance to ensure compliance and drive sustainable performance.

We set this strategy by developing a deep knowledge of the markets we serve and by gaining extensive input from customers and industry influencers, along with detailed competitive benchmarking. We continually analyze our portfolio of products,

Table of Contents

services, and capabilities to identify the best areas for future profitable growth. We also evaluate our operating model to ensure we have the organizational structure and capabilities needed to deliver consistent profitable growth. Through this work, we validate strengths that we can leverage and identify opportunities to improve our performance.

In fiscal 2024, we drove further progress toward our strategic goals and financial targets. We continued the deployment of the Apogee Management System across our business, supporting sustainable cost and productivity improvements. We invested in organic growth initiatives, including capacity expansion in the Large-Scale Optical Segment and geographic growth in the Architectural Services Segment. We increased our focus on differentiated products and services, and continued to diversify the mix of architectural projects that we serve while leaning more heavily into higher, value-added products. We also advanced several initiatives to strengthen our core capabilities, driving the standardization of key business processes and systems, and strengthening talent management and leadership development programs.

The following selected financial data should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended March 2, 2024 and the consolidated financial statements, including the notes to consolidated financial statements, included therein.

Comparison of First Quarter Fiscal 2025 to First Quarter Fiscal 2024

•Consolidated net sales decreased 8.3%, to $331.5 million, primarily driven by lower volume.

•Gross margin increased to 29.8%, compared to 25.7%, primarily driven by a more favorable mix of projects in Architectural Services, favorable material costs, lower insurance-related costs, and productivity gains, partially offset by the impact of lower volume and $0.6 million of restructuring costs associated with Project Fortify.

•Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased $1.7 million to 17.3% of net sales, compared to 16.4% of net sales. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of sales was primarily due to unfavorable sales leverage, partially offset by lower bad debt expense.

•Operating income grew to $41.4 million from $33.8 million, and operating margin increased 320 basis points to 12.5%. The improvement in operating margin was primarily driven by a more favorable mix of projects in Architectural Services, favorable material costs, lower insurance-related costs, productivity gains, and lower bad debt expense, which more than offset the impact of lower volume, $1.1 million of restructuring costs related to Project Fortify, and unfavorable segment mix. Adjusted operating income grew 25.9% to $42.5 million, and adjusted operating margin improved to 12.8%.

•Interest expense, net was $0.5 million, compared to $2.0 million, primarily driven by lower average debt levels.

Table of Contents

•Income tax expense as a percentage of earnings before income tax was 24.5%, compared to 25.0% for the same period last year. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a decrease in tax expense for discrete items, partially offset by an increase in non-deductible executive compensation expense.

Architectural Framing Systems

Comparison of First Quarter Fiscal 2025 to First Quarter Fiscal 2024

•Net sales were $133.2 million, compared to $164.2 million, primarily reflecting reduced volume due to lower end market demand and the exit of certain lower-margin product lines as part of Project Fortify.

•Operating income was $18.3 million, or 13.8% of net sales, compared to $19.9 million, or 12.1% of net sales. The 170 basis point improvement in operating margin was primarily driven by favorable material costs, favorable mix, productivity gains, and lower bad debt expense, partially offset by the impact of lower volume and $1.0 million of restructuring charges as part of Project Fortify. Adjusted operating income was $19.3 million, or 14.5% of net sales, compared to $19.9 million, or 12.1% of net sales.

Architectural Glass

Comparison of First Quarter Fiscal 2025 to First Quarter Fiscal 2024

•Net sales were $86.7 million, compared to $97.2 million, reflecting lower volume due to lower end-market demand, partially offset by improved pricing.

•Operating income increased to $17.1 million, or 19.7% of net sales, compared to $16.5 million, or 17.0% of net sales. The 270 basis point improvement in operating margin was primarily driven by productivity gains and improved pricing, partially offset by the impact of lower volume.

Architectural Services

Comparison of First Quarter Fiscal 2025 to First Quarter Fiscal 2024

•Net sales were $99.0 million, compared to $89.4 million, primarily due to a more favorable mix of projects and increased volume.

•Operating income increased to $5.6 million, or 5.7% of net sales, compared to an operating loss of $0.6 million, or (0.7)% of net sales, primarily driven by a more favorable mix of projects.

Large-Scale Optical (LSO)

Comparison of First Quarter Fiscal 2025 to First Quarter Fiscal 2024

•LSO net sales were $21.2 million, compared to $22.5 million, primarily reflecting lower volume in the retail channel, partially offset by a more favorable mix.

•Operating income was $4.8 million, or 22.9% of net sales, compared to $5.5 million, or 24.6% of net sales. The 170 basis point decline in operating margin primarily reflects the impact of lower volume, partially offset by cost savings and improved mix.

Corporate and Other

Comparison of First Quarter Fiscal 2025 to First Quarter Fiscal 2024

•Corporate and Other expense was $4.5 million, compared to $7.6 million, primarily due to lower insurance-related costs.

Backlog

Backlog represents the dollar amount of signed contracts or firm orders, generally as a result of a competitive bidding process, which may be expected to be recognized as revenue in the future. Backlog is most meaningful for Architectural Services due to the longer-term nature of their projects. Backlog is not a term defined under U.S. GAAP and is not a measure of contract profitability. We view backlog as one indicator of future revenues, particularly in our longer-lead time businesses. In addition to backlog, we have a substantial amount of projects with short lead times that book-and-bill within the same reporting period and are not included in backlog.

Architectural Services

As of June 1, 2024, segment backlog was approximately $866.9 million, compared to approximately $807.8 million at the end of the prior quarter. The increase in backlog compared to the prior quarter was primarily driven by several large project awards in the current quarter.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net earnings, adjusted diluted earnings per share (adjusted diluted EPS), adjusted net earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA), and adjusted EBITDA margin are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures provided by the Company to assess performance on a more comparable basis from period-to-period by excluding amounts that management does not consider part of core operating results. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as noted below:

•We use adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net earnings, and adjusted diluted EPS to provide meaningful supplemental information about our operating performance by excluding amounts that are not considered part of core operating results to enhance comparability of results from period to period.

•We believe adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin metrics provide useful information to investors and analysts about our core operating performance.

Table of Contents

These non-GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the reported financial results of the Company prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently, thereby limiting the usefulness of the measures for comparison with other companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We rely on cash provided by operations for our material cash requirements, including working capital needs, capital expenditures, satisfaction of contractual commitments (including principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness) and shareholder return through dividend payments and share repurchases.

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.5 million for the first three months of fiscal 2025, compared to $21.3 million in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by increased cash used for working capital requirements and increased cash paid for incentive compensation payments, partially offset by higher earnings.

Investing Activities. Net cash used by investing activities was $7.3 million for the first three months of fiscal 2025, compared to $6.9 million in the prior year.

Financing Activities. Net cash used by financing activities was $4.9 million for the first three months of fiscal 2025, compared to $11.3 million in the prior year period. The decrease in cash used for financing activities was primarily driven by higher net debt borrowings in the current year period, partially offset by increased share repurchases.

Additional Liquidity Considerations. We periodically evaluate our liquidity requirements, cash needs and availability of debt resources relative to acquisition plans, significant capital plans, and other working capital needs.

As of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2025, we had a committed revolving U.S. credit facility with maximum borrowings of up to $385 million, with a maturity date of August 5, 2027, and two Canadian credit facilities totaling $25 million (USD). At June 1, 2024, we had outstanding borrowings under our U.S. credit facility of $65.0 million, and no outstanding borrowings under the Canadian credit facilities. We are required to make periodic interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness, and future interest payments will be determined based on the amount of outstanding borrowings and prevailing interest rates during that time.

Our revolving credit facilities also contain an acquisition holiday. In the event we make an acquisition for which the purchase price is greater than $75 million, we can elect to increase the maximum debt-to-EBITDA ratio to 3.75 for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, commencing with the fiscal quarter in which a qualifying acquisition occurs. No more than two acquisition "holidays" can occur during the term of the facility, and at least two fiscal quarters must separate qualifying acquisitions.

Table of Contents

Borrowings under the credit facilities bear floating interest at either the Base Rate or Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), or, in the case of the Canadian credit facilities, Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (CORRA) plus, in each a margin based on the Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreements). For Base Rate borrowings, the margin ranges from 0.125% to 0.75%. For Term SOFR and CORRA borrowings, the margin ranges from 1.125% to 1.75%, with an incremental Term SOFR and CORRA adjustment of 0.10% and 0.29547%, respectively.

Additionally, at June 1, 2024, we had a total of $15.0 million of ongoing letters of credit related to industrial revenue bonds, construction contracts and insurance collateral that expire in fiscal years 2026 through 2032 and reduce borrowing capacity under the U.S. credit facility. As of June 1, 2024, the amount available for revolving borrowings was $305.0 million and $25.0 million under the U.S. credit facility and Canadian credit facilities, respectively.

We acquire the use of certain assets through operating leases, such as property, manufacturing equipment, vehicles and other equipment. Future payments for such leases, excluding leases with initial terms of one year or less, were $43.0 million at June 1, 2024, with $9.5 million payable during the remainder of fiscal 2025.

As of June 1, 2024, we had $17.9 million of open purchase obligations, of which payments totaling $13.4 million are expected to become due during the remainder of fiscal 2025. These purchase obligations primarily relate to raw material commitments and capital expenditures and are not expected to impact future liquidity, as amounts should be recovered through customer billings.

We expect to make contributions of $0.4 million to our defined-benefit pension plans in fiscal 2025, which will equal or exceed our minimum funding requirements.

As of June 1, 2024, we had reserves of $5.6 million for unrecognized tax benefits. We are unable to reasonably estimate in which future periods the remaining unrecognized tax benefits will ultimately be settled.

We are required, in the ordinary course of business, to provide surety or performance bonds that commit payments to our customers for any non-performance. At June 1, 2024, $1.3 billion of these types of bonds were outstanding, of which $434.7 million is in our backlog. These bonds have expiration dates that align with completion of the purchase order or contract. We have not been required to make any payments under these bonds with respect to our existing businesses.

Due to our ability to generate strong cash from operations and our borrowing capability under our committed revolving credit facilities, we believe that our sources of liquidity will be adequate to meet our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital expenditure needs. In addition, we believe we have the ability to obtain both short-term and long-term debt to meet our financing needs, including additional sources of debt to finance potential acquisitions, for the foreseeable future. We also believe we will be able to operate our business so as to continue to be in compliance with our existing debt covenants over the next fiscal year.

We continually review our portfolio of businesses and their assets and how they support our business strategy and performance objectives. As part of this review, we may acquire other businesses, pursue geographic expansion, take actions to manage capacity and further invest in, divest and/or sell parts of our current businesses.
