NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
Background MasterBrand, Inc. is a leading manufacturer of residential cabinets in North America with a portfolio of leading residential cabinetry products for the kitchen, bathroom and other parts of the home. References to “MasterBrand,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to MasterBrand, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires.
Basis of Presentation Our consolidated financial statements are based on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Sunday in December in each calendar year. Our fiscal 2024 will consist of 52 weeks ending on December 29, 2024, while our fiscal 2023 consisted of 53 weeks ended on December 31, 2023.
The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023, as well as the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows, and equity for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024 and the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 24, 2023, are unaudited. The presentation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial statements have been included. Interim results may not be indicative of results for a full year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not contain certain information included in our audited consolidated financial statements and notes. The 2023 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
Tornado at Jackson, Georgia Production Facility On January 12, 2023, a tornado hit the Company’s leased Jackson, Georgia production facility, causing damage to the Company’s assets and disrupting certain operations. Insurance, less applicable deductibles, covered the repair or replacement of the Company’s assets that suffered loss or damage, provided business interruption coverage, including lost profits, and reimbursement for other expenses and costs that were incurred relating to the damages and losses suffered. For the thirteen weeks ended March 26, 2023, the Company incurred expenses of $9.4 million solely related to damages caused by the tornado, and no additional expenses were incurred throughout the remainder of fiscal 2023. These expenses included compensation costs that we continued to pay skilled labor at the Jackson facility to enable a timely ramp up of production upon re-opening the facility on March 27, 2023, the first day of our fiscal second quarter of 2023, as well as the write-off of damaged inventory, freight costs to move product to other warehouses and professional fees to secure and maintain the site. During fiscal 2023, we received $7.4 million of insurance proceeds for direct costs caused by the tornado, consisting of $2.2 million, $2.0 million and $3.2 million received during our second, third and fourth quarters, respectively. Both the expenses and insurance recoveries were recorded as a component of cost of products sold in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Upon receipt of the final insurance proceeds in our fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, we considered this claim to be closed.
2. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Issued and Adopted
There are no recently issued accounting pronouncements that we have adopted and which have had a material effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
Accounting Standards Issued, But Not Yet Adopted
Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures," which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, allowing financial statement users to better understand the components of a segment's profit or loss to assess potential future cash flows for each reportable segment and the entity as a whole. The amendments expand a public entity's segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), clarifying when an entity may report one or more additional measures to assess segment performance, requiring enhanced interim disclosures, providing new disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and requiring other new disclosures. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the condensed consolidated financial statements and will adopt this guidance when it becomes effective in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 29, 2024.
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures," which is intended to enhance the transparency, decision usefulness and effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require a public entity to disclose a tabular tax rate reconciliation, using both percentages and currency, with specific categories. A public entity is also required to provide a qualitative description of the states and local jurisdictions that make up the majority of the effect of the state and local income tax category and the net amount of income taxes paid, disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes and also disaggregated by individual jurisdictions. The amendments also remove certain disclosures that are no longer considered cost beneficial. The amendments are effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the condensed consolidated financial statements and will adopt this guidance when it becomes effective in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2025.
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 to require more detailed information about specified categories of expenses (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
3. Acquisition
On July 10, 2024, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding limited liability interests of Dura Investment Holdings LLC, the parent company of Supreme Cabinetry Brands, Inc. (“Supreme”), a cabinetry company, from GHK Capital Partners LP for $520.0 million in cash, subject to customary purchase price adjustments set forth in the Merger Agreement. Supreme is a domestic manufacturer of residential cabinetry with a portfolio of product lines significantly focused on premium products. Supreme, with manufacturing facilities located in Minnesota, Iowa and North Carolina, and its two brands, Dura Supreme and Bertch cabinetry, crafts framed and frameless cabinetry for a nationwide network of dealers. The combined company is reaching more customers, through its highly complementary dealer networks, with greater efficiency and effectiveness. Through this transaction, MasterBrand broadened its portfolio of premium cabinetry in the resilient and attractive kitchen and bath categories, further diversifying its channel distribution and adding to its strategically located facility footprint. The acquisition was funded with a combination of cash on hand and proceeds from our revolving credit facility. The purchase consideration was $527.1 million, which was determined as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
(U.S. Dollars presented in millions) | | |
Cash considerations paid to Supreme shareholders | | $ | 336.4 | |
Cash paid for transaction costs of Supreme | | 13.9 | |
Repayment of Supreme existing indebtedness and accrued interest | | 178.2 | |
Total Cash Consideration | | $ | 528.5 | |
Preliminary purchase price adjustments | | (1.4) | |
Total Preliminary Purchase Consideration | | $ | 527.1 | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
The purchase price of Supreme was allocated on a preliminary basis as of the closing date of July 10, 2024. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at estimated fair values based on management’s estimates, available information, and supportable assumptions that management considered reasonable. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Supreme are recognized and measured at fair value. Due to the timing of acquisition close, the preliminary fair value estimates and assumptions are subject to change as we obtain additional information over the measurement period. The primary areas of the purchase accounting that remain preliminary for completion of the related valuations relate to, but are not limited to, property, plant and equipment, other intangible assets and the related deferred income tax impacts.
The following table sets forth the preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Supreme, with the excess recorded to goodwill:
| | | | | | | | |
(U.S. Dollars presented in millions) | | |
Preliminary Net Assets Acquired | | Fair Value |
Cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 11.8 | |
Accounts receivable | | 11.5 | |
Inventories | | 17.3 | |
Other current assets | | 2.1 | |
Property, plant and equipment | | 115.9 | |
Operating lease right-of-use assets | | 17.6 | |
Other intangible assets | | 256.9 | |
Other assets | | 1.9 | |
| | $ | 435.0 | |
| | |
Accounts payable | | $ | 7.2 | |
Current operating lease liabilities | | 2.4 | |
Other current liabilities | | 18.0 | |
Deferred income taxes | | 69.8 | |
Operating lease liabilities | | 15.1 | |
Other non-current liabilities | | 0.3 | |
| | $ | 112.8 | |
Net Assets Acquired | | $ | 322.2 | |
Goodwill | | 204.9 | |
Purchase Consideration | | $ | 527.1 | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
The estimated value of Property, Plant and Equipment includes adjustments totaling $73.7 million to increase the net book value of $42.2 million to the preliminary fair value estimate of $115.9 million. This estimate is based on other comparable acquisitions and historical experience, and preliminary expectations as to the duration of time we expect to realize benefits from those assets.
The estimated fair values of identifiable intangible assets acquired were prepared using an income valuation approach, which requires a forecast of expected future cash flows either through the use of the relief-from-royalty method or the multi-period excess earnings method. The estimated useful lives are based on our historical experience and expectations as to the duration of time we expect to realize benefits from those assets. We applied significant judgment in determining the fair value of the intangible assets, which involved the use of Level 3 inputs, including estimates and assumptions of future revenues, royalty rates and discount rates. The estimated fair values of the identifiable intangible assets acquired, their estimated useful lives and the related valuation methodology are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(U.S. Dollars presented in millions) | | | | | | |
Asset Type | | Fair Value | | Useful Life | | Valuation Methodology |
Customer relationships | | $ | 171.8 | | | 17.5 years | | Multi-period excess earnings |
Tradenames | | 85.1 | | | Indefinite | | Relief from royalty method |
| | | | | | |
Total other intangible assets | | $ | 256.9 | | | | | |
The Company recognized $204.9 million of goodwill, of which $180.8 million is tax deductible. The $204.9 million of goodwill recognized is attributable to synergies that are expected to enhance and expand the Company’s overall product portfolio and opportunities in new and existing markets, future products that have yet to be determined and Supreme’s assembled workforce.
The Company incurred $15.0 million and $19.4 million of acquisition-related costs associated with the acquisition in the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024, respectively, which are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Net Income | | $ | 42.0 | | | $ | 56.7 | | | $ | 118.3 | | | $ | 124.5 | |
These pro forma amounts have been calculated after applying our accounting policies and making certain adjustments, which primarily include: (i) depreciation adjustments relating to fair value step-ups to property, plant and equipment; (ii) amortization adjustments relating to fair value estimates of acquired intangible assets; (iii) incremental interest expense associated with the revolving credit facility used, in part, to fund the acquisition, and related debt issuance costs; (iv) cost of products sold adjustments relating to fair value step-ups to inventory; and (v) transaction related costs of both MasterBrand and Supreme.
4. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Our principal performance obligations are the sale of high quality stock, semi-custom and premium cabinetry, as well as vanities, for the kitchen, bath and other parts of the home (collectively, “goods” or “products”). We recognize revenue for the sale of goods based on our assessment of when control transfers to our customers, which generally occurs upon shipment or delivery of the products. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods to our customers. Payment terms on our product sales normally range from 30 to 90 days. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that we collect are excluded from revenue. The expected costs associated with our contractual warranties are recognized as expense when the products are sold. See Note 14, "Contingencies and Accrued Losses," for further discussion.
We record estimates to reduce revenue for customer programs and incentives, which are considered variable consideration, and include price discounts, volume-based incentives, promotions and cooperative advertising when revenue is recognized in order to determine the amount of consideration the Company will ultimately be entitled to receive. These estimates are based on historical and projected experience for each type of customer. In addition, for certain customer program incentives, we receive an identifiable benefit (goods or services) in exchange for the consideration given and record the associated expenditure in selling, general and administrative expenses. We account for shipping and handling costs that occur after the customer has obtained control of a product as a fulfillment activity (i.e., as an expense) rather than as a promised service (i.e., as a revenue element). These costs are classified within selling, general and administrative expenses.
Settlement of our outstanding accounts receivable balances normally occurs within 30 to 90 days of the original sale transaction date. Obligations arise for us from customer rights to return our goods, including among others, product obsolescence, stock rotations, trade-in agreements for newer products and upon termination of a customer contract. We estimate future product returns at the time of sale based on historical experience and record a corresponding refund obligation, which amounted to $2.2 million and $2.1 million as of September 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Refund obligations are classified within other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Return assets related to the refund obligation are measured at the carrying amount of the goods at the time of sale, less any expected costs to recover the goods and any expected reduction in value.
The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers into (i) major sales distribution channels and (ii) total sales to customers by shipping location, as these categories depict the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows that are affected by economic factors. The following table disaggregates our consolidated revenue by major sales distribution channels and by shipping location for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024 and September 24, 2023.

(a) Net sales by channel presented for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 24, 2023 have been reclassified to conform with the new format of this table, which is intended to provide a consolidated view of our net sales by channel and shipping location. Prior to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, net sales by channel were presented for our domestic sales only.
(b) Represents sales to dealers whose end customers include builders, professional trades and home remodelers, inclusive of sales through our dealers’ respective internet website portals.
(c) Represents sales to “Do-It-Yourself” retailers, including our two largest customers: 1) Lowe’s and 2) The Home Depot, inclusive of sales through their respective internet website portals.
(d) Represents sales directly to builders.
Practical Expedients
Incremental costs of obtaining a contract include only those costs the Company incurs that would not have been incurred if the contract had not been obtained. These costs are required to be recognized as assets and amortized over the period that the related goods or services transfer to the customer. As a practical expedient, we expense as incurred costs to obtain a contract when the expected amortization period is one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Our primary allowance for credit losses is the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts reduces the trade accounts receivable balance to the estimated net realizable value that is expected to be collected. The allowance is based on assessments of current creditworthiness of customers, historical collection experience, the aging of receivables and other currently available evidence. Trade accounts receivable balances are written-off against the allowance if a final determination of uncollectibility is made. All provisions for allowances for doubtful collection of accounts are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

There were no impairments of goodwill or indefinite-lived assets for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024. The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment annually in the fourth quarter or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset might be impaired. There were no triggering events requiring an impairment assessment be conducted in the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024. However, it is possible that future changes in circumstances would require the Company to record additional non-cash impairment charges.
8. Financial Instruments
We do not enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We principally use financial instruments to reduce the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The principal derivative financial instruments we enter into on a routine basis are foreign exchange contracts. Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value. The counterparties to derivative contracts are major financial institutions. We are subject to credit risk on these contracts equal to the fair value of these instruments. Management currently believes that the risk of incurring material losses is unlikely and that the losses, if any, would be immaterial to the Company.
We account for derivative instruments as follows:
•Derivative instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges - The changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are reported in other comprehensive income and are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income when the hedged item affects earnings. In all periods presented, the recognized gain or loss on the derivative instrument, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item, are recognized in cost of products sold on the condensed consolidated statements of income.
•Derivative instruments that are designated as fair value hedges - The gain or loss on the derivative instrument, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item, are recognized in other income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of income.
•Derivative instruments that are designated as net investment hedges - The changes in fair value of the derivative instrument are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income when realized upon sale or upon complete or substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity.
As of and for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024 and September 24, 2023, we have only entered into foreign currency forward contracts, some of which have been designated as fair value hedges and some of which have been designated as cash flow hedges. We may enter into foreign currency forward contracts to protect against foreign exchange risks associated with certain existing assets and liabilities, forecasted future cash flows, and net investments in foreign subsidiaries. Foreign exchange contracts related to forecasted future cash flows correspond to the periods of the forecasted transactions, which generally do not exceed 12 to 15 months subsequent to the latest balance sheet date.
Our primary foreign currency hedge contracts pertain to the Mexican peso and the Canadian dollar. The gross U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount of all foreign currency derivative hedges outstanding at September 29, 2024, was $91.3 million, representing a net settlement liability of $5.8 million. Based on foreign exchange rates as of September 29, 2024, we estimate that the $5.1 million of net derivative losses associated with cash flow hedges and included in accumulated other comprehensive income as of September 29, 2024, will be reclassified to earnings within the next twelve months.
The fair values of foreign exchange derivative instruments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

9. Fair Value Measurements
ASC requirements for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. Level 1 inputs, the highest priority, are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs reflect other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are either observable directly or through corroboration with observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs due to little or no market activity for the asset or liability, such as internally-developed valuation models. We do not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis that are Level 3, except for certain assumptions in estimating the fair value of indefinite-lived tradenames, as discussed in Note 8, "Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Fair Value |
(U.S. Dollars presented in millions) | | September 29, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 |
Assets: | | | | |
Derivative asset financial instruments (Level 2) | | $ | — | | | $ | 3.0 | |
Deferred compensation program assets (Level 2) | | 9.1 | | | 5.5 | |
Total assets | | $ | 9.1 | | | $ | 8.5 | |
Liabilities: | | | | |
Derivative liability financial instruments (Level 2) | | $ | 5.8 | | | $ | 0.1 | |
The estimated fair value of the Company's debt, including current maturities, was based on Level 2 inputs, being market quotes or values for similar instruments, and interest rates currently available to the Company for the issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities, as a discount rate for the remaining principal payments. As of September 29, 2024, the fair value of total debt was $1,109.1 million compared to the carrying value of $1,075.0 million, excluding deferred financing costs. As of December 31, 2023, the fair value of total debt was equal to the carrying value of $712.5 million, excluding deferred financing costs.
10. Debt

2022 Credit Agreement
On November 18, 2022, the Company entered into a 5-year, $1.25 billion credit agreement, consisting of a $750.0 million term loan and a $500.0 million revolving credit facility (the “2022 Credit Agreement”). The 2022 Credit Agreement was secured by certain assets as well as the guarantee of certain of our subsidiaries. The $750.0 million term loan had quarterly required amortization payments that began in March 2023.
The revolving credit facility was paid in full during the third quarter of fiscal 2023. During the thirteen weeks ended September 24, 2023, the Company made total payments of $28.1 million on the term loan, consisting of a $4.7 million required payment due September 2023, and $23.4 million of required amortization payments due during each of the next three quarters. As such, we were not required to make, nor did we make, any required amortization payments associated with the term loan during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 or in the first two quarters of fiscal 2024. In June 2024, the Company refinanced the 2022 Credit Agreement, including extinguishing and repaying all amounts outstanding under the existing term loan facility, inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest.
Interest rates under the 2022 Credit Agreement were variable based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) at the time of the borrowing and the Company’s net leverage ratio, as measured by net leverage to our consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Consolidated EBITDA”). Interest rates could range from SOFR plus 1.85 percent to SOFR plus 2.60 percent. Net leverage was defined as consolidated total indebtedness minus certain cash and cash equivalents. Consolidated EBITDA was defined as consolidated net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, losses from asset impairments, and certain other one-time adjustments. The net leverage ratio was not permitted to exceed 3.875 to 1.00 at the initial borrowing through the second fiscal quarter of 2023, adjusting downward in various future quarters before settling at 3.25 to 1.00 in January 2025. The Company was also required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio, defined as Consolidated EBITDA compared to consolidated interest expense, of 3.0 to 1.0. The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants under the 2022 Credit Agreement through the date of the June 2024 refinancing transaction.
2024 Refinancing Transaction
On June 27, 2024, the Company completed a private offering (the “Offering”) of $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.00 percent Senior Notes due 2032 (the “Senior Notes”) and entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “2024 Credit Agreement”), which amended and restated the 2022 Credit Agreement. The Company used the funds from the refinancing transaction, and cash on-hand, to: 1) refinance the 2022 Credit Agreement (including repaying all amounts outstanding under the existing term loan, inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest), 2) fund the previously announced acquisition of Supreme on July 10, 2024, and 3) to pay all fees and expenses related to the foregoing transactions.
The Senior Notes were issued under the Indenture dated as of June 27, 2024 (the “Indenture”) at par. The Senior Notes are the Company’s unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations and are guaranteed, on a senior unsecured basis, by each of the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries that are borrowers under or guarantors of the 2024 Credit Agreement. The Senior Notes will mature on July 15, 2032. Interest on the Senior Notes will accrue at a rate of 7.00 percent per annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15, beginning on January 15, 2025.
The Senior Notes had an outstanding balance of $700.0 million as of September 29, 2024. As of September 29, 2024, prepaid debt issuance costs related to the Notes were $12.7 million and are being amortized over the term of the debt. These costs are included in long-term debt in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to July 15, 2027 at a redemption price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount of the Senior Notes redeemed plus a premium and accrued and unpaid interest. At any time and from time to time on or after July 15, 2027, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at the applicable redemption price set forth in the Indenture plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, at any time and from time to time prior to July 15, 2027, the Company may, at its option, redeem up to 40 percent of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes with the proceeds from certain equity offerings at the applicable redemption price set forth in the Indenture.
The Indenture contains certain covenants, including, but not limited to, limitations and restrictions on the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) to (i) incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness, (ii) make restricted payments, (iii) create, incur or assume liens or use assets as security in other transactions, (iv) merge, consolidate, or sell, transfer, lease or dispose of substantially all of their assets, (v) sell or transfer certain assets, (vi) enter into or conduct transactions with affiliates of the Company and (vii) agree to certain restrictions or encumbrances on the ability of restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends, make loans or advances, or to otherwise transfer property or assets to the Company or other restricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of important conditions, qualifications, exceptions and limitations. The Indenture also includes customary events of default. Certain of the foregoing covenants will be suspended in the event that (i) the Senior Notes receive investment grade ratings from any two of Fitch Ratings Inc., Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or S&P Global Ratings and (ii) no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants under the Indenture as of September 29, 2024.
The 2024 Credit Agreement provides for a 5-year, $750.0 million revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility is not subject to amortization and will mature in June 2029. The 2024 Credit Agreement is secured by certain assets as well as the guarantee of certain of our subsidiaries. Interest rates under the revolving credit facility are variable based on the SOFR, or, at the Company’s option, at a base reference rate equal to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50 percent, (ii) the rate of interest last quoted by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) as its “prime rate” and (iii) the one-month SOFR rate plus 1.00 percent (the “Base Rate”), plus, as applicable, a margin ranging from 1.625 percent to 2.25 percent per annum for SOFR-based loans and ranging from 0.625 percent to 1.25 percent per annum for Base Rate-based loans, in each case, depending on the Company’s net leverage ratio. The Company will also pay customary agency fees and a commitment fee based on the daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility ranging from 0.20 percent to 0.30 percent per annum, depending on its net leverage ratio.
The 2024 Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants, and restrictive covenants. The restrictive covenants limit the Company and its subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, (i) incur indebtedness, (ii) create liens on the Company’s or such subsidiaries’ assets, (iii) engage in fundamental changes, (iv) make investments, (v) sell or otherwise dispose of assets, (vi) engage in sale-leaseback transactions, (vii) make restricted payments, (viii) engage in certain transactions with affiliates and (ix) enter into agreements restricting the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries to make distributions to the Company or incur liens on their assets.
The 2024 Credit Agreement also contains a financial covenant that does not permit the Company to allow its net leverage ratio to exceed (i) in the case of any fiscal quarter ending on or prior to December 31, 2024, 3.50 to 1:00 and (ii) in the case of any fiscal quarter ending on or following March 31, 2025, 3.25 to 1:00 or, if the Company consummates any material acquisition, then the Company’s net leverage ratio shall not exceed 3.75 to 1.00 for the applicable fiscal quarter in which such acquisition is consummated and the three consecutive fiscal quarters thereafter. The Company is also required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00. The 2024 Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the termination of commitments under the revolving credit facility, the acceleration of all outstanding amounts thereunder and the requirement to cash collateralize outstanding letters of credit. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants under the 2024 Credit Agreement as of September 29, 2024.
The revolving credit facility had an outstanding balance of $375.0 million as of September 29, 2024 and had $350.4 million of availability. Availability under the $750.0 million revolving credit facility is reduced by the outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility and outstanding letters of credit. As of September 29, 2024, prepaid debt issuance costs related to the 2024 Credit Agreement were $4.9 million and will be amortized over the term of the debt. At September 29, 2024, these costs are included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Interest paid on debt was $6.7 million and $34.7 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024, respectively, and $14.4 million and $49.1 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 24, 2023, respectively.
11. Restructuring Charges
For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024, we recognized restructuring charges of $7.8 million and $11.0 million, respectively. For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 24, 2023, we recognized restructuring charges of $1.4 million and $4.1 million. Restructuring charges for all periods presented are largely related to severance costs and other employee-related costs in order to better align our workforce with our forecasted demand within our manufacturing footprint.

12. Income Taxes
The effective income tax rates for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2024 and September 24, 2023, were 26.1 percent and 23.4 percent, respectively. The net increase in the effective tax rate between the periods is primarily due to nondeductible acquisition-related transaction costs, an increase in nondeductible stock compensation and changes in foreign income inclusions with offsetting foreign tax credits, partially offset by favorable return-to-provision adjustments and a decrease in the deferred tax liability for foreign earnings.
The difference between our effective income tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2024, and the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0 percent is due to the unfavorable impact of state and local income taxes, nondeductible compensation, nondeductible acquisition-related transaction costs and foreign income inclusions with offsetting tax credits, partially offset by favorable return-to-provision adjustments and the mix of earnings in jurisdictions with differing tax rates.

The effective income tax rates for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024 and September 24, 2023, were 24.6 percent and 25.4 percent, respectively. The net decrease in the effective tax rate between the periods is primarily related to favorable return-to-provision adjustments, the stock compensation windfall benefit for shares which vested and a decrease in the deferred tax liability for foreign earnings, partially offset by nondeductible acquisition-related transaction costs and nondeductible compensation.

13. Pension and Other Postretirement Plans
We have a defined benefit pension plan in the United States covering many of the Company’s associates. In addition, the Company provides postretirement health care and life insurance benefits to certain retirees. The defined benefit pension plan has been frozen to new participants and benefit accruals were frozen for active participants on or before December 31, 2016. During 2023, our Board of Directors approved a plan to terminate the defined benefit pension plan. The termination and settlement process, which preserves retirement benefits due to participants but changes the ultimate payor of such benefits, is expected to take up to 24 months to complete, subject to receipt of customary regulatory approvals. During 2024, the Company is offering a lump-sum benefit payout option to certain plan participants. During 2025, we expect to complete the purchase of group annuity contracts that will transfer any remaining pension benefit obligation to an insurance company.
The components of net periodic cost (benefit) for pension and other postretirement plans for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024 and September 24, 2023, respectively, are as set forth in the tables below. Service cost is classified as either a component of cost of products sold or within selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income, based on the nature of the job responsibilities of the associates participating in the plans. All other components of net periodic cost (benefit) are classified as other income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

14. Contingencies and Accrued Losses
Product Warranties
We generally record warranty expense related to contractual warranty terms at the time of sale. We may also provide customer concessions for claims made outside of the contractual warranty terms and those expenses are recorded in the period in which the concession is made. We offer our customers various warranty terms based on the type of product that is sold. Warranty expense is determined based on historic claim experience and the nature of the product category. The following table summarizes activity related to our product warranty liability for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024 and September 24, 2023.

Litigation
The Company is a defendant in lawsuits that are ordinary routine litigation matters incidental to our business and operations. In addition, other matters, including tax assessments, audits, claims and governmental investigations and proceedings covering a wide range of matters are pending against us. It is not possible to predict the outcome of the pending actions, and, as with any such matters, it is possible that these actions could be decided unfavorably to the Company. The Company believes that there are meritorious defenses to these actions and that these actions will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition, and where appropriate, these actions are being vigorously contested. Accordingly, the Company believes the likelihood of material loss is remote. However, such matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable rulings or other events could occur. The Company regularly undergoes tax audits in various jurisdictions in which our products are sold or manufactured. In the future, costs related to such audits or an unfavorable outcome could have a material impact on our condensed consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Following an audit for the 2018 tax year, the Mexican tax administration service, the Servicio de Administración Tributaria, (the “SAT”), issued a tax assessment in the amount of approximately $54.9 million to our subsidiary, Woodcrafters Home Products, S. de R.L. de C.V., for allegedly failing to make certain tax payments and to export timely certain merchandise. The Company disputed these findings and the SAT annulled their decision on January 11, 2024. In order to prevent the 2018 tax year from further audit by the SAT, the Company has filed an action to declare this annulment final in the specialized court of trade and customs in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Sala Especializada en Materia de Comercio Exterior y Auxiliar – Noreste, Tribunal Federal de Justicia Administrativa. We reserved an immaterial amount related to the 2018 tax year audit as our best estimate of our probable liability as of September 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023. While we cannot predict with certainty the outcome of any future review relating to the 2018 tax year or other open tax years, based on currently known information, we believe our risk of additional loss is remote and not estimable.
Environmental
We reserve for remediation activities to clean up potential environmental liabilities as required by federal and state laws based on our best estimate of undiscounted future costs, excluding possible insurance recoveries or recoveries from other third parties. There were no material environmental accruals as of September 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
15. Accumulated other comprehensive loss
Total accumulated other comprehensive loss consists of net income and other changes in business equity from transactions and other events from sources other than stockholders. It includes currency translation gains and losses, realized gains and losses from derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, and defined benefit plan adjustments. The after-tax components of and changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024 and September 24, 2023 were as follows:

16. Stock Repurchase Program
On May 9, 2023, we announced our Board of Directors’ authorization of a stock repurchase program under which we may repurchase up to $50.0 million of our common stock over a twenty-four month period at management’s discretion for general corporate purposes. As a result of this authorization, we may repurchase shares from time to time through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, block trades or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans and under Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing and amount of our purchases will depend upon prevailing market conditions, our available capital resources, our financial and operational performance, alternative uses of capital and other factors. We may limit or terminate the repurchase program at any time.
During the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 2024, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024, we repurchased 371,499 shares of our common stock under this program. The shares were repurchased at a cost of approximately $6.5 million, or an average of $17.58 per share, during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 24, 2023, we repurchased 942,918 and 1,347,776 shares of our common stock under this program, respectively. The shares were repurchased at a cost of approximately $11.5 million and $15.9 million, respectively, or an average of $12.23 and $11.83 per share, respectively, during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 24, 2023.
As of September 29, 2024, $21.5 million remained authorized for purchase under our stock repurchase program.

Introduction
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is a supplement to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of MasterBrand and its consolidated subsidiaries and provides additional information on our business, recent developments, financial condition, liquidity and capital resources, cash flows and results of operations.
MD&A is organized as follows:
•Overview: This section provides a general description of our business, as well as recent developments we believe are important in understanding our results of operations and financial condition or in understanding anticipated future trends.
•Basis of Presentation: This section provides a discussion of the basis on which our condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared.
•Results of Operations: Our consolidated financial statements are based on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Sunday in December in each calendar year. This section provides an analysis of our results of operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2024 as compared to September 24, 2023.
