HNI Corporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 27, 2020

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  The December 28, 2019 consolidated balance sheet included in this Form 10-Q was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 27, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending January 2, 2021.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in HNI Corporation's (the "Corporation") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019. Certain reclassifications have been made within the interim financial information to conform to the current presentation.

In the second quarter of 2020, the Corporation rebranded its segments to workplace furnishings (formerly office furniture) and residential building products (formerly hearth products). These changes clarify how and where the Corporation's products are used, and are intended to reduce confusion. These changes did not impact the Corporation's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Disaggregation of Revenue
Revenue from contracts with customers disaggregated by product category is as follows (in thousands):

Net sales $ 417,456    $ 526,026    $ 886,161    $ 1,005,482   

Sales by product category are subject to similar economic factors and market conditions. See “Note 16. Reportable Segment Information” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information about operating segments.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
In addition to trade receivables, the Corporation has contract assets consisting of funds paid to certain workplace furnishings dealers in exchange for their multi-year commitment to market and sell the Corporation’s products. These contract assets are amortized over the term of the contracts and recognized as a reduction of revenue. For contracts less than one year, the Corporation has elected the practical expedient to recognize incremental costs to obtain a contract as an expense when incurred. The Corporation has contract liabilities consisting of customer deposits and rebate and marketing program liabilities.

Contract liabilities for customer deposits paid to the Corporation prior to the satisfaction of performance obligations are recognized as revenue upon completion of the performance obligations. The amount of revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 that was included in the December 28, 2019 contract liabilities balance was $0.0 million and $8.6 million, respectively.



10


Performance Obligations
The Corporation recognizes revenue for sales of workplace furnishings and residential building products at a point in time following the transfer of control of such products to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment of the product. In certain circumstances, transfer of control to the customer does not occur until the goods are received by the customer or upon installation and/or customer acceptance, depending on the terms of the underlying contracts. Contracts typically have a duration of less than one year and normally do not include a significant financing component. Generally, payment is due within 30 days of invoicing.

The Corporation's backlog orders are typically cancellable for a period of time and almost all contracts have an original duration of one year or less. As a result, the Corporation has elected the practical expedient permitted in the revenue accounting standard not to disclose the unsatisfied performance obligation as of period end. The backlog is typically fulfilled within a few months.

Significant Judgments
The amount of consideration the Corporation receives and revenue recognized varies with changes in rebate and marketing program incentives, as well as early pay discounts, offered to customers. The Corporation uses significant judgment throughout the year in estimating the reduction in net sales driven by variable consideration for rebate and marketing programs. Judgments made include expected sales levels and utilization of funds. However, this judgment factor is significantly reduced at the end of each year when sales volumes and the impact to rebate and marketing programs are known and recorded as the programs typically end near the Corporation's fiscal year end.

Note 3. Acquisitions

During the six months ended June 27, 2020, the Corporation acquired three residential building products distributors, in January 2020, March 2020 and June 2020. All transactions were asset acquisitions and were consummated entirely in cash. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $12 million, and the preliminary allocation includes $10.5 million of goodwill, which is tax deductible. The remaining assets and liabilities acquired are not material. The Corporation will finalize the allocation of the purchase price during 2020 based on the final purchase price and any adjustments required over the remaining measurement period.

Note 4.  Inventories

In the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation recorded impairment charges of $0.6 million and $8.2 million, related to definite-lived tradenames and customer lists, respectively, in the workplace furnishings segment.

Amortization expense is reflected in "Selling and administrative expenses" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and was as follows (in thousands):
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended

The occurrence of events such as acquisitions, dispositions, or impairments may impact future amortization expense. Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, the estimated amortization expense for each of the following five years is as follows (in millions):
2020 2021 2022 2023 2024
Amortization expense $ 24.0    $ 23.1    $ 20.1    $ 16.8    $ 15.1   

Indefinite-lived intangible assets
The Corporation also owns certain intangible assets, which are deemed to have indefinite useful lives because they are expected to generate cash flows indefinitely. These indefinite-lived intangible assets are reflected in "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (in thousands):
June 27,
2020 		December 28,
2019
Trademarks and trade names $ 26,602    $ 28,849   

In the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation recorded an impairment charge of $2.3 million, related to an indefinite-lived tradename in the workplace furnishings segment. The remaining immaterial change in the indefinite-lived intangible assets balances shown above is related to foreign currency translation impacts.

Impairment Analysis
The Corporation evaluates its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter, or whenever indicators of impairment exist. The Corporation also evaluates long-lived assets (which include definite-lived intangible assets) for impairment if indicators exist.

In the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation determined that a triggering event occurred, resulting in quantitative impairment tests performed over the goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, and long-lived asset groups related to three reporting units in the workplace furnishings segment. This determination was made considering the reduced sales and profitability projections for these reporting units, driven by the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic disruption. The resulting impairment charges recorded in the first quarter of 2020, as described in the preceding sections, are reflected in "Impairment and restructuring charges" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. For further information, refer to "Note 5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" included in the Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 28, 2020.

No additional triggering events occurred and no impairment charges were recorded during the second quarter of 2020.

Note 6.  Product Warranties

The Corporation issues certain warranty policies on its workplace furnishings and residential building products that provide for repair or replacement of any covered product or component that fails during normal use because of a defect in design, materials, or workmanship. Allowances have been established for the anticipated future costs associated with the Corporation's warranty programs.

A warranty allowance is determined by recording a specific allowance for known warranty issues and an additional allowance for unknown claims expected to be incurred based on historical claims experience.  Actual costs incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the allowance.  Activity associated with warranty obligations was as follows (in thousands):
Six Months Ended

June 27,
2020 		December 28,
2019
Current - in the next twelve months $ 7,508    $ 7,940   
Long-term - beyond one year 7,635    7,925   
Total $ 15,143    $ 15,865   

Note 7.  Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt is as follows (in thousands):
June 27,
2020 		December 28,
2019
Revolving credit facility with interest at a variable rate
(June 27, 2020 - 1.2%; December 28, 2019 - 2.8%) 		$ 84,000    $ 75,000   
Fixed rate notes due in 2025 with an interest rate of 4.22% 50,000    50,000   
Fixed rate notes due in 2028 with an interest rate of 4.40% 50,000    50,000   
Other amounts —    790   
Deferred debt issuance costs (519)   (561)  
Total debt 183,481    175,229   
Less: Current maturities of long-term debt —    790   
Long-term debt $ 183,481    $ 174,439   

The carrying value of the Corporation's outstanding variable-rate, long-term debt obligations at June 27, 2020 was $84 million, which approximated fair value. The fair value of the fixed rate notes was estimated based on a discounted cash flow method (Level 2) to be $125 million at June 27, 2020.

As of June 27, 2020, the Corporation’s revolving credit facility borrowings were under the credit agreement entered into on April 20, 2018 with a scheduled maturity of April 20, 2023. The Corporation deferred the debt issuance costs related to the credit agreement, which are classified as assets, and is amortizing them over the term of the credit agreement. The current portion of debt issuance costs of $0.4 million is the amount to be amortized over the next twelve months based on the current credit agreement and is reflected in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The long-term portion of debt issuance costs of $0.8 million is reflected in "Other Assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of June 27, 2020, there was $84 million outstanding under the $450 million revolving credit facility. The entire amount drawn under the revolving credit facility is considered long-term as the Corporation assumes no obligation to repay any of the amounts borrowed in the next twelve months. Based on current earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, the Corporation can access the full remaining $366 million of borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility and maintain compliance with applicable covenants.

In addition to cash flows from operations, the revolving credit facility under the credit agreement is the primary source of daily operating capital for the Corporation and provides additional financial capacity for capital expenditures, repurchases of common stock, and strategic initiatives, such as acquisitions.

In addition to the revolving credit facility, the Corporation also has $100 million of borrowings outstanding under private placement note agreements entered into on May 31, 2018. Under the agreements, the Corporation issued $50 million of seven-year fixed rate notes with an interest rate of 4.22 percent, due May 31, 2025, and $50 million of ten-year fixed rate notes with an interest rate of 4.40 percent, due May 31, 2028. The Corporation deferred the debt issuance costs related to the private placement note agreements, which are classified as a reduction of long-term debt in accordance with ASU No. 2015-03, and is amortizing them over the terms of the private placement note agreements. The deferred debt issuance costs do not reduce the amount owed by the Corporation under the terms of the private placement note agreements. As of June 27, 2020, the debt
14


issuance costs balance of $0.5 million related to the private placement note agreements is reflected in "Long-Term Debt" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The credit agreement and private placement notes both contain financial and non-financial covenants. The covenants under both are substantially the same. Non-compliance with covenants under the agreements could prevent the Corporation from being able to access further borrowings, require immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding, and/or increase the cost of borrowing.

Covenants require maintenance of financial ratios as of the end of any fiscal quarter, including:

•a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not less than 4.0 to 1.0, based upon the ratio of (a) consolidated EBITDA for the last four fiscal quarters to (b) the sum of consolidated interest charges; and
•a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not greater than 3.5 to 1.0, based upon the ratio of (a) the quarter-end consolidated funded indebtedness to (b) consolidated EBITDA for the last four fiscal quarters.

The most restrictive of the financial covenants is the consolidated leverage ratio requirement of 3.5 to 1.0.  Under the credit agreement, consolidated EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income before interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization of intangibles, as well as non-cash items that increase or decrease net income.  As of June 27, 2020, the Corporation was below the maximum allowable ratio and was in compliance with all of the covenants and other restrictions in the credit agreement.  The Corporation expects to remain in compliance with all of the covenants and other restrictions in the credit agreement over the next twelve months.

Note 8.  Income Taxes

The Corporation's tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items. The following table summarizes the Corporation's income tax provision (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
June 27,
2020 		June 29,
2019 		June 27,
2020 		June 29,
2019
Income (loss) before income taxes $ 12,899    $ 20,768    $ (12,640)   $ 22,334   
Income taxes $ 345    $ 4,957    $ (1,299)   $ 5,503   
Effective tax rate 2.7  % 23.9  % 10.3  % 24.6  %

The Corporation's effective tax rate was lower in the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 compared to the same periods last year, primarily due to the mix of jurisdictional income, impairments recorded in the U.S. jurisdiction, and a change in the expected worldwide full year income tax rate due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. The CARES Act contains provisions relating to net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The Corporation is continuing to evaluate the impact of this legislation on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, but at this time does not estimate a material impact.

Note 9.  Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments

For recognition purposes, on a recurring basis, the Corporation is required to measure at fair value its marketable securities, derivative financial instruments, and deferred stock-based compensation.  The marketable securities are comprised of money market funds, government securities and corporate bonds. When available, the Corporation uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classifies such measurements within Level 1.  Where market prices are not available, the Corporation makes use of observable market-based inputs (prices or quotes from published exchanges and indexes) to calculate fair value using the market approach, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2.

Interest Rate Swap
In August 2019, concurrent with the termination of a previous interest rate swap, the Corporation entered into a new interest rate swap transaction to hedge $75 million of outstanding variable rate revolver borrowings against future interest rate volatility.  Under the terms of this interest rate swap, the Corporation pays a fixed rate of 1.42 percent and receives one month LIBOR on a $75 million notional value expiring August 2023.  As of June 27, 2020, the fair value of the Corporation's interest rate swap liability was $2.8 million. The unrecognized change in value of the interest rate swap, which includes the unamortized gain on the termination of the previous interest rate swap, is reported net of tax as $(2.0) million in "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation

The Corporation measures stock-based compensation expense at grant date, based on the fair value of the award. Forms of awards issued under shareholder approved plans include stock options, restricted stock units based on a service condition ("restricted stock units"), restricted stock units based on both performance and service conditions ("performance stock units"), and shares issued under member stock purchase plans. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options, restricted
18


stock units, and performance stock units is recognized over the employees' requisite service periods. Additionally, expense related to performance stock units is adjusted for the probability that the Corporation will perform within an established target range of cumulative profitability over a multi-year period.

Note 14.  Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, and ASU 2019-05 (collectively, Topic 326). Topic 326 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses by requiring consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information and is intended to provide financial statement users with more useful information about expected credit losses on financial instruments.

The Corporation adopted Topic 326 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 using a modified retrospective transition approach. The adoption resulted in a cumulative effect decrease to retained earnings of $0.1 million to reflect a change in the allowance for doubtful accounts. Additionally, Topic 326 requires the allowance for doubtful accounts balance (contra-asset) to be presented
19


separately in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. No other financial statement line items were materially impacted by the adoption.

The Corporation's allowance for doubtful accounts is developed based on several factors, including overall customer credit quality, historical write-off experience, and specific account analyses projecting the ultimate collectability of the account. The adoption of Topic 326 did not significantly impact the Corporation's accounting policies or estimation methods related to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Furthermore, in the second quarter of 2020 the Corporation adjusted its method for determining the allowance for doubtful accounts in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of this adjustment was not material to the financial statements.

Topic 326 also introduced new accounting and reporting requirements related to available-for-sale debt securities, including consideration of whether an allowance for credit losses should be established. The Corporation has determined that such an allowance is not required with respect to its available-for-sale debt security portfolio. See "Note 9. Fair Value Measurements" for fair value information of the Corporation's available-for-sale debt securities and where such are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amortized cost of this portfolio was $13.1 million and $12.5 million as of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, respectively. Immaterial amounts of accrued interest receivable related to the Corporation's portfolio are recorded in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" and "Other assets".

Note 15.  Guarantees, Commitments, and Contingencies

The Corporation utilizes letters of credit and surety bonds in the amount of approximately $22 million to back certain insurance policies and payment obligations.  The Corporation utilizes trade letters of credit and banker's acceptances in the amount of approximately $0.1 million to guarantee certain payments to overseas suppliers. The letters of credit, bonds, and banker's acceptances reflect fair value as a condition of their underlying purpose and are subject to competitively determined fees.

The Corporation has contingent liabilities which have arisen in the ordinary course of its business, including liabilities relating to pending litigation, environmental remediation, taxes, and other claims.  It is the Corporation's opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, that liabilities, if any, resulting from these matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial condition, cash flows, or on the Corporation's quarterly or annual operating results when resolved in a future period.

Note 16.  Reportable Segment Information

As discussed in "Note 1. Basis of Presentation", in the second quarter of 2020, the Corporation rebranded its reportable segments. These changes did not impact the Corporation's condensed consolidated financial statements. Management views the Corporation as being in two reportable segments based on industries: workplace furnishings (formerly office furniture) and residential building products (formerly hearth products), with the former being the principal segment.

The aggregated workplace furnishings segment manufactures and markets a broad line of commercial and home office furniture which includes panel-based and freestanding furniture systems, seating, storage, tables, and architectural products.  The residential building products segment manufactures and markets a full array of gas, wood, electric, and pellet fueled fireplaces, inserts, stoves, facings, and accessories.

For purposes of segment reporting, intercompany sales between segments are not material, and operating profit is income before income taxes exclusive of certain unallocated general corporate expenses.  These unallocated general corporate expenses include the net costs of the Corporation's corporate operations.  Management views interest income and expense as corporate financing costs and not as a reportable segment cost.  In addition, management applies an effective income tax rate to its consolidated income before income taxes so income taxes are not reported or viewed internally on a segment basis. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets applicable to the respective industry segments. Corporate assets consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, long-term investments, IT infrastructure, and corporate office real estate and related equipment.

No geographic information for revenues from external customers or for long-lived assets is disclosed since the Corporation's primary market and capital investments are concentrated in the United States.

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

The following discussion of the Corporation's historical results of operations and of its liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation and related notes. Statements that are not historical are forward-looking and involve risks and uncertainties. See "Forward-Looking Statements" at the end of this section for further information.

Overview

The Corporation has two reportable segments: workplace furnishings (formerly office furniture) and residential building products (formerly hearth products). In the second quarter of 2020, the Corporation rebranded its reportable segments, with no impact on the Corporation's condensed consolidated financial statements. The Corporation is a leading global designer and provider of commercial furnishings, and a leading manufacturer and marketer of hearth products. The Corporation utilizes a decentralized business model to deliver value to customers via various brands and selling models. The Corporation is focused on growing its existing businesses while seeking out and developing new opportunities for growth.

Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2020 were $417.5 million, a decrease of 20.6 percent compared to net sales of $526.0 million in the prior-year quarter.  The change was driven by a 24.8 percent decrease in the workplace furnishings segment, along with a 6.1 percent decrease in the residential building products segment. The acquisition of residential building products distributors resulted in a $2.9 million increase compared to the second quarter of 2019.

Net income attributable to the Corporation in the second quarter of 2020 was $12.6 million compared to $15.8 million in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to lower volume as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by lower core SG&A spend, net productivity, and price realization.

Update on COVID-19 Pandemic

The Corporation's primary focus during the COVID-19 pandemic crisis continues to be the health and safety of its members. The Corporation implemented workplace health and safety measures consistent with guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and has taken strong measures to create social distancing and keep members safe. A portion of the Corporation's members continue to work remotely.

The HNI strategy, including diverse revenue streams, price point breadth, channel reach, and a lean operating model, along with the dedication of members, allowed the Corporation to manage through challenging second quarter conditions. The Corporation aggressively managed costs and drove productivity, offsetting much of the impact from lower volumes resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The Corporation’s teams stayed focused on customers, generating and seizing market opportunities. As of June 27, 2020, the Corporation's major facilities continue to operate, and there are no material disruptions to the Corporation's supply chain, manufacturing and distribution operations, or ability to serve customers.

Results of Operations - Three Months Ended

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2020 decreased 20.6 percent compared to the same quarter last year.

Included in the sales results for the current quarter was a $2.9 million impact from acquiring small residential building products distributors.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 50 basis points in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter last year primarily driven by lower volume, partially offset by price realization and net productivity.





23


Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased 60 basis points in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter last year due to lower volume, partially offset by lower core SG&A spend and net productivity.

Operating Income

In the second quarter of 2020, operating income was $14.8 million compared to operating income of $23.2 million in the same quarter last year. The change was primarily driven by lower volume, partially offset by lower core SG&A spend, net productivity, and price realization.

For the second quarter of 2019, the Corporation's income tax provision was an expense of $5.0 million on income before taxes of $20.8 million, or an effective tax rate of 23.9 percent.

Refer to "Note 8. Income Taxes" for further information.

Net Income Attributable to HNI Corporation

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, coupled with cash flow from future operations, borrowing capacity under the existing credit agreement, and the ability to access capital markets, are expected to be adequate to fund operations and satisfy cash flow needs for at least the next twelve months. Additionally, based on current earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization generation, the Corporation can access the full remaining $366 million of borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility and maintain compliance with applicable covenants.

Cash Flow – Operating Activities
Operating activities were a source of $27.8 million of cash in the first six months of 2020 compared to a source of $12.8 million of cash in the first six months of 2019. The increase in operating cash flows was driven by seasonal timing differences in working capital and other liabilities.
Cash Flow – Investing Activities
Capital expenditures, including capitalized software, for the first six months of 2020 were $20.8 million compared to $37.6 million in the same period last year. These expenditures are primarily focused on machinery, equipment, and tooling required to support new products, continuous improvements, and cost savings initiatives in manufacturing processes.  For the full year 2020, capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $40 to $45 million.

Current year investing activities also include acquisition spending for small residential building products distributors.

Cash Flow – Financing Activities
Long-Term Debt - The Corporation maintains a revolving credit facility as the primary source of committed funding from which the Corporation finances its planned capital expenditures, strategic initiatives, and seasonal working capital needs. Cash flows included in financing activities represent periodic borrowings and repayments under the revolving credit facility. See "Note 7. Long-Term Debt" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

During the second quarter, the Board declared the regular quarterly cash dividend on May 5, 2020. The dividend was paid on June 1, 2020 to shareholders of record on May 15, 2020.

Stock Repurchase - The Corporation’s capital strategy related to stock repurchase is focused on offsetting the dilutive impact of issuances for various compensation related matters. The Corporation may elect to opportunistically purchase additional shares based on excess cash generation and/or share price considerations. The Board authorized $200 million on November 9, 2007 and an additional $200 million each on November 7, 2014 and February 13, 2019 for repurchases of the Corporation’s common stock. As announced in the April 6, 2020 COVID-19 response update, the Corporation temporarily suspended share repurchase activity to support free cash flow. See "Note 10. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Shareholders' Equity" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Corporation does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on the Corporation's financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

Contractual Obligations

Contractual obligations associated with ongoing business and financing activities will result in cash payments in future periods.  A table summarizing the amounts and estimated timing of these future cash payments was provided in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019.  There were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the Corporation's contractual obligations or the estimated timing of the future cash payments during the first six months of 2020.

Commitments and Contingencies

See "Note 15. Guarantees, Commitments, and Contingencies" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon the Consolidated Financial Statements, prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on a variety of other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Senior management has discussed the development, selection, and disclosure of these estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  A summary of the more significant accounting policies requiring the use of estimates and assumptions in preparing the financial statements is provided in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This update simplifies various aspects related to accounting for income taxes, removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740, and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The new standard becomes effective for the
27


Corporation in fiscal 2021. The Corporation is currently evaluating the effect the standard will have on consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Looking Ahead

Management continues to anticipate near-term challenges in both volume and profit levels as the Corporation navigates the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic disruption. However, management expects third quarter 2020 sales and profit to increase from second quarter 2020 levels, driven by seasonality. Cash flows are anticipated to remain healthy over the remainder of 2020, which has resulted in the acceleration of (1) certain investments in the second half of the year; and (2) the restoration of compensation for members and Board of Directors to levels existing prior to the reductions announced by the Corporation on April 22, 2020.

Management remains optimistic about the long-term prospects in the workplace furnishings and residential building products markets.  Management believes the Corporation continues to compete well and remains confident the investments made in the business will continue to generate strong returns for shareholders.
