1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
TopBuild was formed on June 30, 2015, and is listed on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “BLD.” We report our business in
In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to state fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2020, our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019, was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
These condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on February 25, 2020.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Financial Statement Presentation. Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been developed in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. All intercompany transactions between TopBuild entities have been eliminated.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Credit Losses
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaces the current incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology, referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology. We adopted Topic 326 on January 1, 2020, using the modified retrospective method, which resulted in a $
We measure the expected credit losses on accounts receivable by segment, using historical loss rate information adjusted for current conditions, with changes in the allowance recorded as a provision for (or reversal of) credit loss expense. Expected losses are charged against the allowance when management believes a receivable is uncollectible. Receivables, net are presented net of certain allowances, including allowance for credit losses.
Goodwill Impairment
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” The new standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step of the goodwill impairment test. This update was effective for us beginning January 1, 2020, and did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
8
Fair Value
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” The new standard modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, including adjustments to Level 3 fair value measurement disclosures as well as the removal of disclosures around Level 1 and Level 2 transfers. This update was effective for us beginning January 1, 2020, and did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740), Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles included in current guidance, as well as improving consistent application of and simplifying GAAP for other areas by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This update is effective for us beginning January 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. We have not yet selected an adoption date, and we are currently evaluating the effect of adoption of this standard on our financial position and results of operations.
3. REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is disaggregated between our Installation and Distribution segments and further based on market and product, as we believe this best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

We recognize revenue for our Installation segment over time as the related performance obligation is satisfied with respect to each particular order within a given customer’s contract. Progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation is measured using a cost-to-cost measure of progress method. The cost input is based on the amount of material installed at that customer’s location and the associated labor costs, as compared to the total expected cost for the particular order. Revenue is recognized as the customer is able to receive and utilize the benefits provided by our services. Each contract contains one or more individual orders, which are based on services delivered. When a contract modification is made, typically the remaining goods or services are considered distinct and we recognize revenue for the modification as a separate performance obligation. When material and installation services are bundled in a contract, we combine these items into one performance obligation as the overall promise is to transfer the combined item.
Revenue from our Distribution segment is recognized when title to products and risk of loss transfers to our customers. This represents the point in time when the customer is able to direct the use of and obtain substantially all the benefits from the product. The determination of when control is deemed transferred depends on the shipping terms that are agreed upon in the contract.
At time of sale, we record estimated reductions to revenue for customer programs and incentive offerings, including special pricing and other volume-based incentives based on historical experience, which is continuously adjusted. The duration of our contracts with customers is relatively short, generally less than a
We record a contract asset when we have satisfied our performance obligation prior to billing and a contract liability when a customer payment is received prior to the satisfaction of our performance obligation. The difference between the beginning and ending balances of our contract assets and liabilities primarily results from the timing of our performance and the customer’s payment. Our remaining performance obligations are expected to be recognized within the next twelve months.
The following table represents our contract assets and contract liabilities with customers, in thousands:

Amended Credit Agreement and Senior Secured Term Loan Facility
On March 20, 2020, the Company entered into an Amended Credit Agreement, which renewed, amended and restated the Original Credit Agreement in its entirety. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $
The following table outlines the key terms of our Amended Credit Agreement (dollars in thousands):
Senior secured term loan facility | $ | | |
Additional term loan and/or revolver capacity available under incremental facility (a) | $ | | |
Revolving Facility | $ | | |
Sublimit for issuance of letters of credit under Revolving Facility (b) | $ | | |
Sublimit for swingline loans under Revolving Facility (b) | $ | | |
Interest rate as of June 30, 2020 | | % | |
Scheduled maturity date |
(a) | Additional borrowing capacity is available under the incremental facility, subject to certain terms and conditions (including existing or new lenders providing commitments in respect of such additional borrowing capacity). |
(b) | Use of the sublimits for the issuance of letters of credit and swingline loans reduces the availability under the Revolving Facility. |
12
Interest payable on borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement is based on an applicable margin rate plus, at our option, either:
● | A base rate determined by reference to the highest of either (i) the federal funds rate plus |
● | A LIBOR rate (or a comparable successor rate) determined by reference to the costs of funds for deposits in U.S. dollars for the interest period relevant to such borrowings, subject to a floor of |
The Amended Credit Agreement contemplates future amendment by the Company and the agent to provide for the replacement of LIBOR with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate or another alternate benchmark rate, giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks, including any related mathematical or other applicable adjustments.
The applicable margin rate is determined based on our Secured Leverage Ratio. In the case of base rate borrowings, the applicable margin rate ranges from
Revolving Facility
The Company has outstanding standby letters of credit that secure our financial obligations related to our workers’ compensation, general insurance, and auto liability programs. These standby letters of credit, as well as any outstanding amount borrowed under our Revolving Facility, reduce the availability under the Revolving Facility.

Covenant Compliance
The indenture governing our Senior Notes contains customary restrictive covenants that, among other things, generally limit our ability to incur additional debt and issue preferred stock; to create liens; to pay dividends, acquire shares of capital stock, make payments on subordinated debt or make investments; to place limitations on distributions from certain subsidiaries; to issue guarantees; to issue or sell the capital stock of certain subsidiaries; to sell assets; to enter into transactions with affiliates; and to effect mergers. The Senior Notes indenture also contains customary events of default, subject in certain cases to grace and cure periods. Generally, if an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee under the indenture or the holders of at least
The Amended Credit Agreement contains certain covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur additional indebtedness or liens; to make certain investments or loans; to make certain restricted payments; to enter into consolidations, mergers, sales of material assets, and other fundamental changes; to transact with affiliates; to enter into agreements restricting the ability of subsidiaries to incur liens or pay dividends; or to make certain accounting changes. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and events of default.
The Amended Credit Agreement requires that we maintain a Net Leverage Ratio and minimum Interest Coverage Ratio throughout the term of the agreement. The following table outlines the key financial covenants effective for the period covered by this Quarterly Report:

6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair Value on Recurring Basis
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, net, and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. We measure our contingent consideration liabilities related to business combinations at fair value. For more information see Note 13 – Business Combinations.
Fair Value on Non-Recurring Basis
Fair value measurements were applied to our long-term debt portfolio. We believe the carrying value of our term loan approximates the fair market value primarily due to the fact that the non-performance risk of servicing our debt obligations, as reflected in our business and credit risk profile, has not materially changed since we assumed our debt obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement. In addition, due to the floating-rate nature of our term loan, the market value is not subject to variability solely due to changes in the general level of interest rates as is the case with a fixed-rate debt obligation. Based on active market trades of our Senior Notes close to June 30, 2020 (Level 1 fair value measurement), we estimate that the fair value of the Senior Notes is approximately $

8. LEASES
We have operating leases for our installation branch locations, distribution centers, our Branch Support Center in Daytona Beach, Florida, vehicles and certain equipment. In addition, we lease certain operating facilities from certain related parties, primarily former owners (and in some cases, current management personnel) of companies acquired. These related party leases are immaterial to our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2020, we did not have any finance leases.
At the inception of a contract, we determine whether the contract is, or contains, a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Our facilities operating leases have lease and non-lease fixed cost components, which we account for as one single lease component in calculating the present value of minimum lease payments. Variable lease and non-lease cost components are expensed as incurred and are primarily included in cost of sales on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. Variable costs include common area maintenance, utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating costs that are passed on from the lessor. These variable cost components are included within our operating lease cost.
15
Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term, including future option periods the Company reasonably expects to exercise, whereby an equal amount of rent expense is attributed to each period during the term of the lease, regardless of when actual payments are made. This generally results in rent expense in excess of cash payments during the early years of a lease and rent expense less than cash payments in later years. The difference between rent expense recognized and actual rental payments is typically represented as the spread between the ROU asset and lease liability.
We recognize a ROU asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. Our leases may include
or the lease, which will be reflected in the calculation of the lease liability and corresponding ROU asset when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. In addition, certain vehicle lease agreements have residual value guarantees at the end of the lease term which require us to return the asset with a specified percentage of the original or other calculated value. We do not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have an initial lease term of 12 months or less. We recognize the lease payments associated with short-term leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.The lease liability is initially measured as the present value of the unpaid lease payments as of the lease commencement date. The lease liability is discounted based on our IBR at the time of initial adoption of ASU 2016-02 for all existing leases or upon a modification to the lease term and at the time of lease commencement for all future leases. Our IBR includes significant assumptions regarding our secured borrowing rates obtained on equipment note issuances and adjustments for differences in the remaining lease term, underlying assets and market conditions for companies with similar credit qualities as well as interest rate index fluctuations.
The ROU asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received. The ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term as the carrying amount of the lease liability, plus initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received.

15. OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation. We are subject to certain claims, charges, litigation, and other proceedings in the ordinary course of our business, including those arising from or related to contractual matters, intellectual property, personal injury, environmental matters, product liability, product recalls, construction defects, insurance coverage, personnel and employment disputes, antitrust, and other matters, including class actions. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters, and we do not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on us. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in any of these pending matters, and we could in the future incur judgments, enter into settlements of claims, or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our liquidity and our results of operations.
22
Other Matters. We enter into contracts, which include customary indemnities that are standard for the industries in which we operate. Such indemnities include, among other things, customer claims against builders for issues relating to our products and workmanship. In conjunction with divestitures and other transactions, we occasionally provide customary indemnities relating to various items including, among others: the enforceability of trademarks; legal and environmental issues; and asset valuations. We evaluate the probability that we may incur liabilities under these customary indemnities and appropriately record an estimated liability when deemed probable.
We also maintain indemnification agreements with our directors and officers that may require us to indemnify them against liabilities that arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, except as prohibited by applicable law.
We occasionally use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span multiple accounting periods. Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. We also have bonds outstanding for license and insurance.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
TopBuild, headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida, is a leading installer and distributor of insulation and other building products to the U.S. construction industry. We trade on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “BLD.”
We operate in two segments: Installation (TruTeam) and Distribution (Service Partners). Our Installation segment installs insulation and other building products nationwide through our TruTeam contractor services business, which, as of June 30, 2020, had approximately 200 branches located across the United States. We install various insulation applications, including fiberglass batts and rolls, blown-in loose fill fiberglass, blown-in loose fill cellulose, and polyurethane spray foam. Additionally, we install other building products including gutters, glass and windows, afterpaint products, fireproofing, garage doors, fireplaces, shower enclosures, and closet shelving. We handle every stage of the installation process, including material procurement supplied by leading manufacturers, project scheduling and logistics, multi-phase professional installation, and installation quality assurance.
Our Distribution segment sells and distributes insulation and other building products, including gutters, fireplaces, closet shelving, and roofing materials through our Service Partners business, which, as of June 30, 2020, had approximately 75 branches located across the United States. Our Service Partners customer base consists of thousands of insulation contractors of all sizes, gutter contractors, weatherization contractors, other contractors, dealers, metal building erectors, and modular home builders.
We believe that having both TruTeam and Service Partners provides us with a number of distinct competitive advantages. First, the combined buying power of our two business segments, along with our national scale, strengthens our ties to the major manufacturers of insulation and other building products. This helps to ensure we are buying competitively and ensures the availability of supply to our local branches and distribution centers. The overall effect is driving efficiencies through our supply chain. Second, being a leader in both installation and distribution allows us to more effectively reach a broader set of builder customers, regardless of their size or geographic location in the U.S., and leverage housing growth wherever it occurs. Third, during industry downturns, many insulation contractors who buy directly from manufacturers during industry peaks return to purchasing through distributors. As a result, this helps to reduce our exposure to cyclical swings in our business.
For additional details pertaining to our operating results by segment, see Note 7 – Segment Information to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated herein by reference. For additional details regarding our strategy, material trends in our business and seasonality, please refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on February 25, 2020, which discussion is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
COVID-19 BUSINESS UPDATE
We continue to monitor the COIVD-19 pandemic and its impact on macroeconomic and local economic conditions. During the second quarter, segments of the United States economy reopened, allowing the residential and commercial construction industries to operate without significant restrictions across the country. Prior to this reopening, four states had deemed residential and commercial construction nonessential, negatively impacting sales. Accordingly, we took steps to reduce expenses in response to and in anticipation of the lower sales levels. While we are currently able to operate in all of our locations, there is no guarantee that the services we provide will continue to be allowed or that other events making the provision of our services challenging or impossible, will not occur. For example, if there are surges in levels of COVID-19 infections in certain states, those states may respond by, among other things, deeming residential and commercial construction as nonessential.
24
We continue to implement procedures and processes to ensure the safety of our employees, including increasing our cleaning and sanitizing practices at all locations and for all company vehicles, mandating social distancing on job sites and within our branch operations and limiting all but essential travel. Additionally, we are not able to predict whether our customers will continue to operate at their current or typical volumes, and such decreases in their operations would have a negative impact on our business. We are also unable to predict how long the COVID-19 pandemic will last and the impact of the pandemic on demand for our products and services. For additional discussion of the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, see the sections entitled “Outlook” and “Risk Factors” included in this Quarterly Report.
The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto, and the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” included in this Quarterly Report.

Net margin | 8.6 | % | 7.9 | % |
Sales and Operations
Net sales decreased 2.1 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from the comparable period of 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by a 3.6 percent reduction in sales volume driven by the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on business activity, partially offset by an increase in sales from our acquisitions.
Gross profit margins were 27.6 percent and 26.5 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Gross profit margin improved primarily due to increased operational efficiencies, cost reduction initiatives, and lower insurance costs partially offset by higher depreciation expense.
Selling, general, and administrative expense, as a percent of sales, was 15.1 percent and 15.0 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expense as a percent of sales was primarily the result of lower sales volume and higher restructuring expenses, offset by savings from cost reduction initiatives and lower travel and entertainment costs.
Operating margins were 12.5 percent and 11.5 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in operating margins was due to operational efficiencies, savings from cost reduction initiatives, lower insurance costs, and lower travel and entertainment costs partially offset by higher depreciation and restructuring expenses.

Sales
Sales in the Installation segment decreased $16.5 million, or 3.4 percent, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019. Sales decreased 5.5 percent due to volume and increased 1.4 percent due to acquisitions and 0.7 percent due to increased selling prices.
Operating margins
Operating margins in the Installation segment were 14.9 percent and 14.2 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in operating margins was driven by operational efficiencies, savings from cost reduction initiatives, lower insurance costs, and lower travel and entertainment costs partially offset by higher depreciation and restructuring expenses.
Distribution
Sales
Sales in the Distribution segment increased $2.8 million, or 1.3 percent, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019. Sales increased 1.7 percent due to volume and declined 0.4 percent due to pricing decreases.
Operating margins
Operating margins in the Distribution segment were 11.2 percent and 9.9 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in operating margins was driven by operational efficiencies, savings from cost reduction initiatives, and lower travel and entertainment costs partially offset by higher depreciation and restructuring expenses.

OTHER ITEMS
Other expense, net
Other expense, net, which primarily consisted of interest expense, was $8.2 million and $9.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by lower LIBOR rates and a lower balance due on our term loan.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense was $16.8 million, an effective tax rate of 23.2 percent, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $14.9 million, an effective tax rate of 22.2 percent, for the comparable period in 2019. The higher 2020 effective tax rate was due to a smaller benefit in 2020 related to share-based compensation.

Sales and Operations
Net sales increased 1.6 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from the comparable period of 2019. The increase was primarily driven by increased selling prices and acquisitions, with nearly flat volumes due to the negative impacts of COVID-19 on business activity.
Gross profit margins were 26.9 percent and 25.8 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Gross profit margin improved primarily due to increased selling prices, operational efficiencies, and savings from cost reduction initiatives, partially offset by higher depreciation expense and higher material costs.
Selling, general, and administrative expense, as a percent of sales, was 15.4 percent and 15.5 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Decreased selling, general, and administrative expense as a percent of sales was primarily the result of savings from cost reduction initiatives and lower travel and entertainment costs.
Operating margins were 11.6 percent and 10.4 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in operating margins was due to increased selling prices, operational efficiencies, savings from cost reduction initiatives and lower travel and entertainment costs, partially offset by higher depreciation expense and higher material costs.

Installation
Sales
Sales in the Installation segment increased $10.0 million, or 1.1 percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019. Sales increased 1.4 percent due to increased selling prices and 1.2 percent due to acquisitions, but decreased 1.6 percent in volume driven by the negative impact of COVID-19 on business activity.
Operating margins
Operating margins in the Installation segment were 13.8 percent and 12.8 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in operating margins was driven by operational efficiencies, increased selling prices, cost reduction initiatives, and lower travel and entertainment costs, partially offset by higher depreciation and higher material costs.
Distribution
Sales
Sales in the Distribution segment increased $12.6 million, or 3.0 percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019. Sales increased 2.8 percent due to volume despite a negative impact from COVID-19 on business activity, and 0.3 percent due to increased selling prices.
28
Operating margins
Operating margins in the Distribution segment were 11.3 percent and 10.0 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in operating margins was driven by operational efficiencies, increased selling prices, savings from cost reduction initiatives and lower travel and entertainment costs, partially offset by higher depreciation and higher material costs.
OTHER ITEMS
Other expense, net
Other expense, net, which primarily consisted of interest expense, was $16.7 million and $18.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by lower LIBOR rates and a lower balance due on our term loan.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense was $27.5 million, an effective tax rate of 20.5 percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $24.2 million, an effective tax rate of 21.2 percent, for the comparable period in 2019. The lower 2020 effective tax rate was due to a larger benefit in 2020 related to share-based compensation.
Cash Flows and Liquidity

Net cash used in financing activities | (63,432) |
| (35,427) | |||
Increase for the period | $ | 74,030 | $ | 40,838 |
Net cash flows provided by operating activities increased $81.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior year period. The change was primarily due to the timing of accounts receivable collections and accrued liability payments, as well as an increase in net income.
Net cash used in investing activities was $40.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily composed of $20.9 million for purchases of property and equipment, primarily vehicles, partially offset by $0.8 million in proceeds from the sale of property and equipment, and $20.5 million for the acquisitions of Cooper and Hunter. Net cash used in investing activities was $20.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily composed of $22.0 million for purchases of property and equipment, primarily vehicles, partially offset by $2.0 million in proceeds from the sale of property and equipment.
Net cash used in financing activities was $63.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we used $34.2 million for the repurchase of common stock pursuant to the 2019 Repurchase Program, $13.2 million on purchases of common stock for tax withholding obligations related to the vesting and exercise of share-based incentive awards, $13.4 million for payments on our term loan under our Amended Credit Agreement and on our equipment notes, and $2.3 million in debt issuance costs as a result of entering into a new term loan and revolving credit facility. Net cash used in financing activities was $35.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we used $11.4 million for payments on our term loan under our Amended Credit Agreement and on our equipment notes, $19.5 million for the repurchase of common stock pursuant to the 2019 Repurchase Program, and $8.5 million on purchases of common stock for tax withholding obligations related to the vesting and exercise of share-based incentive awards. We also made payments totaling $1.1 million for contingent consideration for EcoFoam and Santa Rosa.

We are closely managing our balance sheet, including maximizing our cash flow, to maintain our strong foundation and provide stabilization as we continue to work through the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. We had solid liquidity available to us at June 30, 2020, with $258.8 million of cash and $389.6 million available borrowing capacity under our Revolving Facility. In May 2020, we temporarily suspended share repurchases under the 2019 Share Repurchase Program and acquisitions, due to the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We believe that our cash flows from operations, combined with our current cash levels and available borrowing capacity, will be adequate to support our ongoing operations and working capital needs, despite the future unknown impacts from COVID-19.

(a) Our cash and cash equivalents consist of AAA-rated money market funds as well as cash held in our demand deposit accounts.
We occasionally use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span multiple accounting periods. Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. We also have bonds outstanding for license and insurance. Information regarding our outstanding bonds as of June 30, 2020 is incorporated by reference from Note 15 – Other Commitments and Contingencies to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
OUTLOOK
At the start of the second quarter, the United States was in the middle of a historic shut-down as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in the cessation of nearly all economic activities. From the start of the shut-down, construction activities were generally deemed an essential service in all but a few states, resulting in our ability to continue operating in most locations until segments of the economy started to open back up during the second quarter. Management continues to evaluate every aspect of our business and is monitoring ongoing developments with regards to if operating activities will be restricted again, as well as if there will be a downturn or other adverse impact to our business as a result of the pandemic’s greater economic impact.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We had no material off-balance sheet arrangements during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, other than short-term leases, letters of credit, and performance and license bonds, which have been disclosed in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly report.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations from those previously disclosed in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on February 25, 2020, except for the amendment to our Original Credit Agreement on March 20, 2020. See further information as disclosed in Note 5 – Long Term Debt in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our critical accounting policies have not changed from those previously reported in our Annual Report for year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on February 25, 2020, except as required by the adoption of ASU 2016-13. See further information as disclosed in Note 2 – Accounting Policies in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
APPLICATION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Information regarding application of new accounting standards is incorporated by reference from Note 2 – Accounting Policies to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this report that reflect our views about future periods, including our future plans and performance, constitute “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “will,” “would,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “designed,” “plan,” or “intend,” the negative of these terms, and similar references to future periods. These views involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in our forward-looking statements. We caution you against unduly relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Our future performance may be affected by the duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the United States economy, specifically with respect to residential and commercial construction; our ability to continue operations in markets affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and our ability to collect receivables from our customers; our reliance on residential new construction, residential repair/remodel, and commercial construction; our reliance on third-party suppliers and manufacturers; our ability to attract, develop, and retain talented personnel and our sales and labor force; our ability to maintain consistent practices across our locations; and our ability to maintain our competitive position. We discuss the material risks we face under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on February 25, 2020, as well as under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in subsequent reports that we file with the SEC. Our forward-looking statements in this filing speak only as of the date of this filing. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
On March 20, 2020, the Company entered into the Amended Credit Agreement, which renews, amends and restates the Original Credit Agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement consists of a senior secured term loan facility in the amount of $300.0 million and the Revolving Facility in the amount of $450.0 million. We also have outstanding Senior Notes with an aggregate principal balance of $400.0 million. The Senior Notes bear a fixed rate of interest and therefore are excluded from the calculation below as they are not subject to fluctuations in interest rates.
Interest payable on both the term loan facility and Revolving Facility under the Amended Credit Agreement is based on a variable interest rate. As a result, we are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on this outstanding indebtedness. As of June 30, 2020, we had $296.3 million outstanding under our term loan facility, and the applicable interest rate as of such date was 1.75%. Based on our outstanding borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2020, a 100 basis point increase in the interest rate would result in a $2.9 million increase in our annualized interest expense. There was no outstanding balance under the Revolving Facility as of June 30, 2020.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) in the most recent fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
