New and Existing Home Sales Seasonally Adjusted Annual Rate • “Unfortunately, we knew New 1,000 Existing 1,000 home sales would wane in 800 6,000 March due to the coronavirus outbreak. More 750 temporary interruptions to home sales should be 700 5,500 expected in the next couple of months, though home 650 prices will still likely rise. • “Earlier in the year, we 600 5,000 watched inventory gradually tick upward but 550 with the current quarantine recommendations in place, 500 4,500 fewer sellers are listing homes, which will limit 450 buyer choices. Significantly more listings are needed and more will come on to 400 4,000 the market once the economy steadily reopens.” 350 ”Lawrence Yun 300 3,500 Chief Economist Jan '13 Jan '14 Jan '15 Jan '16 Jan '17 Jan '18 Jan '19 Jan '20 National Association of Realtors April 21, 2020 7 Source: National Association of Realtors (existing) and census.gov/newhomesales

Current Business Conditions 2020 Outlook In 2019: • We have consolidated our two commercial brands into AtlasMasland. • We launched Sustaina™, our 95% post-consumer recycled material, PVC free and polyurethane free, cushion modular carpet tile backing. • We launched TRUCOR™ and TRUCOR Prime™ luxury vinyl flooring. • In the last year, we have paid down $42 million in debt. • We returned to operating profitability in the fourth quarter of 2019. In 2020: • We are growing the number of items in our TRUCOR™ family of luxury vinyl flooring products by over 40%. We are featuring, “Integrated Grout Technology” where the locking system is engineered to simulate a real grout line. We are launching our new oversized planks in contemporary, clean visuals. • With the beginning of the pandemic, our orders and sales declined dramatically in late March and early April. The first few weeks of April were impacted the most and our sales and orders decreased over 50% for the month of April. Since the second week of April, our sales and orders have continued to improve and in May we anticipate sales and orders being down in the 35% range but continuing to improve sequentially. Many of our customers are reopening and beginning to generate business. We would expect business to continue improving and be at more normal levels later this year. 28
Non-GAAP Information Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information: The Company believes that non-GAAP performance measures, which management uses in evaluating the Company's business, may provide users of the Company's financial information with additional meaningful bases for comparing the Company's current results and results in a prior period, as these measures reflect factors that are unique to one period relative to the comparable period. However, the non-GAAP performance measures should be viewed in addition to, not as an alternative for, the Company's reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company defines Adjusted Gross Profit as Gross Profit plus manufacturing integration expenses of new or expanded operations, plus acquisition expense related to the fair market write up of inventories, plus one time items so defined (Note 1) The Company defines Adjusted S,G&A as S,G&A less manufacturing integration expenses included in selling, general and administrative, less direct acquisition expenses, less one time items so defined.

The change in net working capital is the change in current assets less current liabilities between periods.
