Forward-Looking Statements

The discussion in this Quarterly Report, including under this Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of Part I and Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of Part II, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Quarterly Report, including statements regarding our future operating results and financial position, expectations related to our acquisition of Spartan Surfaces, Inc. (“Spartan”), business strategy and plans, objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates, and projections. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions regarding the Company’s business, the economy, and other future conditions, including the impact of natural disasters on sales. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “seeks,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “budget,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report are only predictions. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future events, results, performance, or achievements. A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report, including, without limitation, those factors described in this Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of Part I and Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of Part II. Some of the key factors that could cause actual results to differ from our expectations include the following:

•an overall decline in the health of the economy, the hard surface flooring industry, consumer confidence and spending, and the housing market, including as a result of rising inflation or interest rates;

•demand fluctuations in the housing industry, and demand for our products and services, may be adversely affected by unfavorable economic conditions, including rising interest rates, inflation, a decline in disposable income levels, and recession fears;

•an economic recession or depression;

•global inflationary pressures on raw materials, energy, commodity, transportation, and other costs could cause our vendors to seek further price increases on the products we sell;

•any disruption in our supply chain, including carrier capacity constraints, port congestion, higher shipping, rail, and trucking prices, and other supply chain costs or product shortages;

•our failure to successfully anticipate consumer preferences and demand;

•our inability to pass along cost increases at rates consumers are willing to pay, or reduced demand due to pricing increases;

•our inability to manage our growth;

•our inability to manage costs and risks relating to new store openings;

•our inability to find available locations for our stores on terms acceptable to us;

•demand for our products and services may be adversely affected by unfavorable economic conditions;

•any disruption in our distribution capabilities, including from difficulties operating our distribution centers;

•our failure to execute our business strategy effectively and deliver value to our customers;

•our inability to find, train and retain key personnel;

•the resignation, incapacitation, or death of any key personnel;

•the inability to staff our stores and distribution centers sufficiently;

•the effects of weather conditions, natural disasters, or other unexpected events, including global health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, may disrupt our operations;

•our dependence on foreign imports for the products we sell, which may include the impact of tariffs and other duties;

Table of Contents

•geopolitical risks, such as the ongoing war in Ukraine, that impact our ability to import from foreign suppliers or raise our costs;

•if the use of “cookie” tracking technologies is further restricted, the amount of internet user information we collect would decrease, which could require additional marketing efforts and harm our business and operating results;

•violations of laws and regulations applicable to us or our suppliers;

•our failure to adequately protect against security breaches involving our information technology systems and customer information;

•suppliers may sell similar or identical products to our competitors;

•competition from other stores and internet-based competition;

•impact of acquired companies, including Spartan;

•our inability to manage our inventory obsolescence, shrinkage, and damage;

•our inability to maintain sufficient levels of cash flow or liquidity to meet growth expectations;

•our inability to obtain merchandise on a timely basis at prices acceptable to us;

•restrictions imposed by our indebtedness on our current and future operations; and

•our variable rate debt subjects us to interest rate risk that could cause our debt service obligations to increase significantly.

Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report speak only as of the date hereof. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. If a change to the events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements occurs, our business, financial condition, and operating results may vary materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, or otherwise.

  1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is a multi-channel specialty retailer and commercial flooring distributor. The Company offers a broad assortment of in-stock hard-surface flooring, including tile, wood, laminate, vinyl, and natural stone along with decorative accessories and wall tile, installation materials, and adjacent categories at everyday low prices. Our stores appeal to a variety of customers, including professional installers and commercial businesses (“Pro”), do it yourself customers (“DIY”), and buy it yourself customers who buy our products for professional installation (“BIY”). We operate within one reportable segment.

As of March 30, 2023, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Floor and Decor Outlets of America, Inc. (“F&D” or “Outlets”), operates 194 warehouse-format stores, which average 79,000 square feet, and five small-format standalone design studios in 36 states, as well as four distribution centers and an e-commerce site, FloorandDecor.com. Substantially all of the Company’s operating assets and liabilities are held by Outlets.

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the Thursday on or preceding December 31st. The fiscal year ending December 28, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”) and the fiscal year ended December 29, 2022 (“fiscal 2022”) include 52 weeks. 52-week fiscal years consist of thirteen-week periods in each quarter of the fiscal year. When a 53-week fiscal year occurs, we report the additional week at the end of the fiscal fourth quarter.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 29, 2022 has been derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet for the fiscal year then ended. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnote disclosures included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 23, 2023 (the “Annual Report”). Management believes the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. Results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There were no significant changes to our Significant Accounting Policies as disclosed in the Annual Report. For more information regarding our Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates, see the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” section of “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of our Annual Report.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Supplier Finance Programs. In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2022-04, “Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50).” The ASU requires disclosure of the key terms of outstanding supply chain finance programs and a rollforward of the related amounts due to vendors participating in these programs. The adoption of ASU 2022-04 did not affect the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as the standard only impacts financial statement footnote disclosures. The guidance is effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, except for a rollforward of activity within supply chain finance programs, which is effective beginning in fiscal 2024. For additional information, refer to Note 9, “Supply Chain Finance Program.”

Table of Contents

Business Combinations. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” The ASU addresses diversity and inconsistency related to the recognition and measurement of contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination and requires that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company adopted ASU No, 2021-08 in the first quarter of 2023 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU No. 2021-08 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures and is only applicable to the extent that the Company has future business combinations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Leases. In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-01, “Leases (Topic 842), Common Control Arrangements”. The amendments in the ASU applying to public business entities clarifies the accounting for leasehold improvements associated with common control leases, reducing diversity in practice and providing investors with financial information that will better reflect the economics of those transactions. This guidance in ASU No. 2023-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and can be applied prospectively to all new leasehold improvements, prospectively to all new and existing leasehold improvements, or retrospectively to the beginning of the period in which the entity first applied Topic 842. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2023-01 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures and would only be applicable to the extent that the Company has future common control leases.

  1. Revenue

Net sales consist of revenue associated with contracts with customers for the sale of goods and services in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company is entitled to receive in exchange for those goods and services.

Deferred Revenue & Contract Liabilities

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control of the inventory. Amounts in deferred revenue at period-end reflect orders for which the inventory was not yet ready for physical transfer to customers.

Contract liabilities within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 30, 2023 and December 29, 2022 primarily consisted of deferred revenue as well as amounts in accrued expenses and other current liabilities related to the Pro Premier Rewards loyalty program and unredeemed gift cards. As of March 30, 2023, contract liabilities totaled $64.9 million and included $14.4 million of deferred revenue, $36.6 million of loyalty program liabilities, and $13.9 million of unredeemed gift cards. As of December 29, 2022, contract liabilities totaled $57.0 million and included $10.1 million of deferred revenue, $33.8 million of loyalty program liabilities, and $13.1 million of unredeemed gift cards. Of the contract liabilities outstanding as of December 29, 2022, approximately $11.3 million was recognized in revenue during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023.

Term Loan Facility

The Term Loan Facility bears interest at a rate equal to either (a) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the “Prime Rate,” (2) the U.S. federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (3) the one-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1.0%, or (b) Adjusted Term SOFR, plus, in each case, the Applicable Margin (each term as defined in the Term Loan Facility credit agreement). The Applicable Margin for base rate loans will be between 1.00% and 1.25%, and the Applicable Margin for SOFR loans will be between 2.00% and 2.25% (subject to a floor of 0.00%), in each case, if the Company exceeds certain leverage ratio tests.

All obligations under the Term Loan Facility are secured by (1) a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the property and assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the Term Loan Facility, with certain exceptions, and (2) a second-priority security interest in the collateral securing the ABL Facility.

ABL Facility

As of March 30, 2023, the Company’s ABL Facility had a maximum availability of $800.0 million with actual available borrowings limited to the sum, at the time of calculation, of (a) eligible credit card receivables multiplied by the credit card advance rate, plus (b) the cost of eligible inventory, net of inventory reserves, multiplied by the applicable appraisal percentage, plus (c) 85% of eligible net trade receivables, plus (d) all eligible cash on hand, plus (e) 100% of the amount for which the eligible letter of credit must be honored after giving effect to any draws, minus certain Availability Reserves (each component as defined in the ABL Facility). The ABL Facility is available for issuance of letters of credit and contains a sublimit of $50.0 million for standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit combined. Available borrowings under the facility are reduced by the face amount of outstanding letters of credit. The Company’s ABL Facility allows for the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility by an additional amount up to $200.0 million.

All obligations under the ABL Facility are secured by (1) a first-priority security interest in the cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, and related assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the ABL Facility, with certain exceptions, and (2) a second-priority security interest in substantially all of the other property and assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the Term Loan Facility.

Net availability under the ABL Facility, as reduced by outstanding borrowings and fees of $106.5 million and letters of credit of $33.3 million, was $660.2 million based on financial data as of March 30, 2023.

Covenants

The credit agreements governing the Term Loan Facility and ABL Facility contain customary restrictive covenants, which, among other things and with certain exceptions, limit the Company’s ability to (i) incur additional indebtedness and liens in connection with such indebtedness, (ii) pay dividends and make certain other restricted payments, (iii) effect mergers or consolidations, (iv) enter into transactions with affiliates, (v) sell or dispose of property or assets, and (vi) engage in unrelated lines of business. In addition, these credit agreements subject the Company to certain reporting obligations and require that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants, including, among other things, a requirement that if borrowings under the ABL Facility exceed 90% of availability, the Company will maintain a certain fixed charge coverage ratio (defined as Consolidated EBITDA less non-financed capital expenditures and income taxes paid to consolidated fixed charges, in each case as more fully defined in the ABL Facility).

The Term Loan Facility has no financial maintenance covenants. The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreements.

Fair Value of Debt

The estimated fair values and classifications within the fair value hierarchy of the Term Loan Facility and the ABL Facility were as follows as of March 30, 2023 and December 29, 2022:

in thousands Fair Value Hierarchy Classification March 30, 2023 December 29, 2022
Term Loan Facility Level 3 $ 199,894 $ 196,575
ABL Facility Level 2 106,500 210,200
Total $ 306,394 $ 406,775

The Term Loan Facility fair value is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs significant to the valuation, including indicative pricing from counterparties and discounted cash flow methods. The carrying amount of borrowings under the ABL Facility approximates fair value as the ABL Facility variable interest rates are based on prevailing market rates, which are a Level 2 input.

  1. Income Taxes

Effective tax rates for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 and March 31, 2022 were based on the Company’s forecasted annualized effective tax rates and were adjusted for discrete items that occurred within each period. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 21.1% and 23.6% for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively. For the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 and March 31, 2022, the effective income tax rate was higher than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes that were partially offset by tax deductions in excess of book expense related to stock-based compensation awards.

  1. Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Commitments

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. The majority of the Company’s long-term operating lease agreements are for its retail locations, distribution centers, and corporate office, which expire in various years through 2048. Most of these agreements are retail leases wherein both the land and building are leased, additionally, the Company has ground leases in which only the land is leased. The initial lease terms for the Company's retail locations, distribution centers, and corporate office typically range from 10-20 years. The majority of the Company’s leases also include options to extend, which are factored into the recognition of their respective assets and liabilities when appropriate based on management’s assessment of the probability that the options will be exercised.

When readily determinable, the rate implicit in the lease is used to discount lease payments to present value; however, substantially all of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. If the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses a third party to assist in the determination of a secured incremental borrowing rate, determined on a collateralized basis, to discount lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The secured incremental borrowing rate is estimated based on yields obtained from Bloomberg for U.S. consumers with a BB credit rating and is adjusted for collateralization as well as inflation. As of March 30, 2023 and March 31, 2022, the Company’s weighted average discount rate was 5.5% and 5.1%, respectively. As of March 30, 2023 and March 31, 2022, the Company’s weighted average remaining lease term was approximately 12 years and 11 years, respectively.

Litigation

On November 15, 2021, the Company was added as a defendant in a wrongful death lawsuit, Nguyen v. Inspections Now, Inc., No. 21-DCV-287142, pending in the 434th Judicial District Court of Fort Bend County, Texas. Inspections Now, Inc.; Bestview International Company; and Bestview (Fuzhou) Import & Export Co. LTD are also named as defendants in the case. Plaintiff’s petition alleges that “wood paneling” allegedly purchased from the Company was installed in the vicinity of plaintiff’s fireplace and caught fire while the fireplace was lit. The fire consumed plaintiff’s home and resulted in injuries to plaintiff and another occupant and the death of plaintiff’s three children and mother. Plaintiff alleges product defect and failure to warn claims against the Company; product defect, failure to warn, and strict liability claims against the Bestview entities; and negligent inspection claims against Inspections Now. Plaintiff’s petition seeks damages in excess of $1.0 million for property damage, personal injury, and wrongful death. The petition also seeks exemplary damages. Plaintiff’s ex-husband, brother, and the additional occupant have since intervened in the lawsuit. Intervenors allege the same claims against the Company, Inspections Now, and the Bestview entities and collectively seek damages in excess of $11.0 million for property damage, personal injury (as to the other occupant), wrongful death, and exemplary damages. The Company has answered all petitions, denying the allegations, and is seeking dismissal of the lawsuit in favor of a first-filed lawsuit against other defendants (but arising from the same fire) pending in Harris County, Texas. The trial court denied the Company’s motion seeking dismissal on February 23, 2023. On March 27, 2023, the Company filed a petition seeking mandamus relief from that ruling in the Court of Appeals for the First Judicial District of Texas, No. 01-23-00225-cv. The petition for mandamus relief remains pending.

On June 18, 2020, an alleged stockholder filed a putative derivative complaint, Lincolnshire Police Pension Fund v. Taylor, et al., No. 2020-0487-JTL, in the Delaware Court of Chancery, purportedly on behalf of the Company against certain of the Company’s officers, directors, and stockholders. An amended complaint was filed on September 14, 2022. The Company along with the other defendants filed a motion to dismiss on October 31, 2022. The plaintiffs then filed a second amended complaint on December 22, 2022. On February 6, 2023, the Company, along with the other defendants, filed a motion to dismiss the operative complaint. The complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment. The factual allegations underlying these claims are similar to the factual allegations made in the previously dismissed In re Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. Securities Litigation, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. The complaint seeks unspecified damages and restitution for the Company from the individual defendants and the payment of costs and attorneys’ fees.

The Company maintains insurance that may cover any liability arising out of the above-referenced litigation up to the policy limits and subject to meeting certain deductibles and to other terms and conditions thereof. Estimating an amount or range of possible losses resulting from litigation proceedings is inherently difficult, particularly where the matters involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages and are in the stages of the proceedings where key factual and legal issues have not been resolved. For these reasons, the Company is currently unable to predict the ultimate timing or outcome of or reasonably estimate the possible losses or a range of possible losses resulting from the above-referenced litigation.

The Company is also subject to various other legal actions, claims, and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, which may include claims related to general liability, workers’ compensation, product liability, intellectual property, and employment-related matters resulting from its business activities. As with most actions such as these, an estimation of any possible and/or ultimate liability cannot always be determined. The Company establishes reserves for specific legal proceedings when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. These various other ordinary course proceedings are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, cash flows, or results of operations, however regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

  1. Stock-based Compensation

In accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, the Company measures compensation cost for all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognizes compensation expense, net of forfeitures, using the straight-line method over the requisite service period of awards expected to vest, which for each of the awards is the service vesting period.

Restricted Stock Units

The Company periodically grants restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that represent an unfunded, unsecured right to receive a share of the Company’s Class A common stock upon vesting. During the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023, the Company granted RSUs to certain employees, officers, and non-employee directors, comprised of service-based RSUs, performance-based RSUs, and total shareholder return (“TSR”) awards. Service-based RSUs vest based on the grantee’s continued service through the vesting date. The performance-based RSUs cliff vest based on (i) the Company's achievement of predetermined financial metrics at the end of a three-year performance period and (ii) the grantee’s continued service through the vesting date. Depending on the performance-based RSU grant and the extent to which the relevant performance goals are achieved, the number of common shares earned upon vesting may range from either 0% to 150% or 0% to 200% of the award granted. The TSR awards cliff vest based on (i) the Company's relative TSR compared to a specified peer group and (ii) the grantee's continued service through the vesting date. The number of common shares earned upon vesting of the TSR awards may range from 0% to 150% of the TSR awards granted with no vesting above the target awards amount if the Company’s three-year absolute TSR is negative. The Company assesses the probability of achieving all performance goals on a quarterly basis. The service periods for RSUs granted during the period varies by grantee and ranges between approximately two to four years from the grant date.

The following table summarizes restricted stock unit activity during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023:

Table of Contents

The aggregate fair value for all restricted stock units granted during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 was $54.8 million. The grant-date fair value of service-based RSUs and performance-based RSUs is based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of grant. The grant-date fair value of TSR awards is estimated using a Monte Carlo valuation method, which included the following assumptions for TSR awards granted during the period:

  1. Earnings Per Share

Net Income per Common Share

The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of share-based awards.

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Thirteen Weeks Ended
in thousands, except per share data March 30, 2023 March 31, 2022

  1. Fair Value Measurements

As of March 30, 2023 and December 29, 2022, the Company had certain financial assets and liabilities on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. The estimated fair values of financial assets and liabilities such as cash and cash equivalents, receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets, other assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their respective carrying values as reported within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 3, “Debt” for discussion of the fair value of the Company’s debt.

Contingent Earn-out Liabilities

As of March 30, 2023, the contingent earn-out liabilities had an aggregate estimated fair value of $7.2 million (classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy), of which $2.8 million is included in other liabilities and $4.4 million is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The table below summarizes changes in contingent earn-out liabilities during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023.

in thousands Contingent Earn-out Liabilities
Balance at December 29, 2022 $ 11,019
Fair value adjustments 1,434
Payments (5,241)
Balance at March 30, 2023 $ 7,212

The $1.4 million net increase in the fair value of contingent earn-out liabilities during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 was recognized in general and administrative expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Interest Rate Cap Contracts

Changes in interest rates impact the Company’s results of operations. In an effort to manage exposure to this risk, the Company enters into derivative contracts and may adjust its derivative portfolio as market conditions change.

The Company has outstanding interest rate cap contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gain or loss on effective cash flow hedges is reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The effective portion of the derivative represents the change in fair value of the hedge that offsets the change in fair value of the hedged item. To the extent the change in the fair value of the hedge does not perfectly offset the change in the fair value of the hedged item, the ineffective portion of the hedge is immediately recognized in earnings.

The Company’s outstanding interest rate cap contracts were valued primarily using level 2 inputs based on data readily observable in public markets. The Company's interest rate cap contracts were negotiated with counterparties without going through a public exchange. Accordingly, the Company's fair value assessments for these derivative contracts gave consideration to the risk of counterparty default as well as the Company's own credit risk. As of March 30, 2023 and December 29, 2022, the total fair value of the Company's interest rate cap contracts was approximately $4.7 million and $5.9 million, respectively, which are presented as a component of AOCI within stockholders’ equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets net of tax of $1.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively. During the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023, the Company reclassified $1.1 million of interest income from AOCI into earnings related to the interest rate cap contracts. No interest income was reclassified from AOCI into earnings during the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2022.

  1. Supply Chain Finance

The Company facilitates supply chain finance programs through financial intermediaries, which provide certain suppliers the option to be paid by the financial intermediaries earlier than the due date on the applicable invoice. When a supplier utilizes one of the supply chain finance programs and receives an early payment from a financial intermediary, it takes a discount on the invoice. The Company then pays the financial intermediary the invoice on the original due date. The Company does not reimburse suppliers for any costs they incur for participation in the program. Supplier participation is voluntary, and there are no assets pledged as security or other forms of guarantees provided for the committed payment to the financial intermediaries. As a result, all amounts owed to the financial intermediaries are presented as trade accounts payable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts due to the financial intermediaries reflected in trade accounts payable at March 30, 2023 and December 29, 2022 were $104.1 million and $82.5 million, respectively.

Net Sales

Net sales during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 increased $93.3 million, or 9.1%, compared to the corresponding prior year period primarily due to sales from the net 28 new warehouse-format stores that we opened since March 31, 2022, partially offset by a decrease in comparable store sales of 3.3%. The comparable store sales decrease during the period of 3.3%, or $32.5 million, was driven by a 9.9% decrease in comparable customer transactions, partially offset by a 7.3% increase in comparable average ticket. Non-comparable store sales during the period were $125.8 million driven by new stores opened after March 31, 2022 and revenue from our Spartan subsidiary.

We believe the decrease in comparable customer transactions for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 was primarily driven by declines in existing home sales, higher borrowing costs for consumers, and inflation. We partially offset the decrease in comparable customer transactions with a higher average ticket. The higher average ticket is primarily due to retail price increases to offset higher supply chain and product costs compared to the same period last year. In addition, our average ticket continues to benefit from a higher penetration of sales through our ecommerce, Pro, and design initiatives.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 increased $61.1 million, or 15.0%, compared to the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2022. The increase in gross profit was driven by the 9.1% increase in net sales and an increase in gross margin to 41.8%, up approximately 210 basis points from 39.7% in the same period a year ago primarily due to retail price increases taken to offset higher supply chain and product costs.

Selling and Store Operating Expenses

Selling and store operating expenses during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 increased $54.2 million, or 21.7%, compared to the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2022. As a percentage of net sales, selling and store operating expenses increased approximately 280 basis points to 27.1% from 24.3% in the corresponding prior year period. These increases during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 were primarily attributable to growth in new stores, wage increases, higher credit card transaction processing fees, and deleverage in occupancy and other fixed costs resulting from lower comparable store sales.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 increased $7.3 million, or 13.3%, compared to the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2022 due to costs to support store growth, including increased store support staff, higher depreciation related to technology and other store support center investments, and operating expenses related to our Spartan subsidiary. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased approximately 20 basis points to 5.5% from 5.3% in the prior year quarter primarily due to deleverage from lower comparable store sales.

Pre-Opening Expenses

Pre-opening expenses decreased $1.9 million, or 19.3%, during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease primarily resulted from opening fewer stores during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 compared to the corresponding prior year period.

Interest Expense

Net interest expense during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 increased $3.7 million, or 318.4%, compared to the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2022. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to an increase in amounts borrowed under our ABL Facility and interest rate increases on outstanding debt, partially offset by increases in interest capitalized and interest income from our interest cap derivative contracts.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $19.1 million during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 compared to $21.9 million during the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2022. The effective tax rate was 21.1% for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 compared to 23.6% in the prior year quarter. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to year-over-year increases in excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation awards.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance and enterprise value. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful measures, as they eliminate certain expenses that are not indicative of our core operating performance and facilitate a comparison of our core operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as a basis to determine covenant compliance with respect to our ABL Facility and Term Loan Facility (together, the "Credit Facilities"), to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties as performance measures to evaluate companies in our industry.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. We define EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization adjusted to eliminate the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation expense and certain items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. See below for a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Table of Contents

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures of our financial performance and should not be considered as alternatives to net income as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of liquidity or free cash flow for management's discretionary use. In addition, these non-GAAP measures exclude certain non-recurring and other charges. Each of these non-GAAP measures has its limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. In evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the items eliminated in the adjustments made to determine EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, such as stock-based compensation expense, distribution center relocation expenses, fair value adjustments related to contingent earn-out liabilities, and other adjustments. Our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Definitions and calculations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differ among companies in the retail industry, and therefore EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA disclosed by us may not be comparable to the metrics disclosed by other companies.

For the periods presented, the following table reconciles EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

Thirteen Weeks Ended
in thousands March 30, 2023 March 31, 2022
Net income $ 71,524 $ 70,951
Depreciation and amortization (a) 45,926 34,120
Interest expense, net 4,862 1,162
Income tax expense 19,130 21,859
EBITDA 141,442 128,092
Stock-based compensation expense (b) 6,741 5,980
Other (c) 1,434 1,705
Adjusted EBITDA $ 149,617 $ 135,777

(a)Excludes amortization of deferred financing costs, which is included as part of interest expense, net in the table above.

(b)Non-cash charges related to stock-based compensation programs, which vary from period to period depending on the timing of awards and forfeitures.

(c)Other adjustments include amounts management does not consider indicative of our core operating performance. Amounts for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 relate to changes in the fair value of contingent earn-out liabilities. Amounts for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2022 primarily relate to expenses for our Houston distribution center relocation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is provided primarily by our cash flows from operations and our $800.0 million ABL Facility. Unrestricted liquidity based on our March 30, 2023 financial data was $665.2 million, consisting of $5.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $660.2 million immediately available for borrowing under the ABL Facility without violating any covenants thereunder. Our liquidity is not generally seasonal, and our uses of cash are primarily tied to when we open stores and make other capital expenditures.

Our primary cash needs are for merchandise inventories, payroll, store rent, and other operating expenses and capital expenditures associated with opening new stores and remodeling existing stores, as well as information technology, e-commerce, and store support center infrastructure. We also use cash for the payment of taxes and interest and, as applicable, acquisitions. We expect that cash generated from operations together with cash on hand, the availability of borrowings under our credit facilities, and if necessary, additional funding through other forms of external financing, will be sufficient to meet liquidity requirements, anticipated capital expenditures, and payments due under our credit facilities for the next twelve months and the foreseeable future.

Table of Contents

Total capital expenditures in fiscal 2023 are planned to be between approximately $620 million to $675 million and are expected to be funded primarily by cash generated from operations and borrowings under the ABL Facility. Our capital needs may change in the future due to changes in our business, new opportunities that we choose to pursue, or other factors. We currently expect the following for capital expenditures in fiscal 2023 (projected amounts are based on the gross costs that we expect to accrue for these investments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in fiscal 2023, which may include amounts incurred but not yet settled in cash during the period):

•invest approximately $495 million to $525 million to open 32 to 35 warehouse-format stores, relocate stores, and begin construction on stores opening in fiscal 2024;

•invest approximately $95 million to $110 million in existing store remodeling projects and our distribution centers; and

•invest approximately $30 million to $40 million in information technology infrastructure, e-commerce, and other store support center initiatives.

Cash Flow Analysis

A summary of our operating, investing, and financing activities is shown in the following table:

Thirteen Weeks Ended
in thousands March 30, 2023 March 31, 2022
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities $ 250,280 $ (3,333)
Net cash used in investing activities (139,398) (101,394)
Net cash used in financing activities (115,642) (2,889)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents $ (4,760) $ (107,616)

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities

Cash provided by or used in operating activities consists primarily of (i) net income adjusted for non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, stock-based compensation, and changes in the fair values of contingent earn-out liabilities and (ii) changes in working capital.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $250.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $3.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2022. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of a net decrease in inventory purchases and other working capital items.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Investing activities typically consist primarily of capital expenditures for new store openings and existing store remodels including leasehold improvements, racking, fixtures, vignettes, and design centers, as well as new infrastructure and information systems. Cash payments to acquire businesses are also included in investing activities.

Net cash used in investing activities during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 and March 31, 2022 was $139.4 million and $101.4 million, respectively. The increase in cash used in investing activities was due to an increase in capital expenditures. The year-over-year growth in capital expenditures was primarily driven by an increase in new stores under construction and settlement of outstanding construction payables for recently completed stores compared to the corresponding prior year period.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Financing activities consist primarily of borrowings and related repayments under our credit agreements, proceeds from the exercise of stock options and our employee share purchase program, tax payments related to the vesting or exercise of stock-based compensation awards, and payments of contingent earn-out consideration.

Net cash used in financing activities for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2023 and March 31, 2022 was $115.6 million and $2.9 million, respectively. The increase in net cash used in financing activities was primarily driven by net ABL Facility repayments of $103.7 million and a $9.1 million increase in tax payments related to the vesting or exercise of stock-based compensation awards.

Our Credit Facilities

As of March 30, 2023, total Term Loan Facility debt was $204.0 million, and the total amount borrowed under our ABL Facility was $106.5 million. For additional information regarding our Term Loan Facility and ABL Facility, including applicable covenants and other details, please refer to Note 3, “Debt.”

Credit Ratings

Our credit ratings are periodically reviewed by rating agencies. Standard & Poor's issuer credit rating of BB with a stable outlook and Moody’s issuer credit rating of Ba3 with a positive outlook remain unchanged as of March 30, 2023. These ratings and our current credit condition affect, among other things, our ability to access new capital. Negative changes to these ratings may result in more stringent covenants and higher interest rates under the terms of any new debt. Our credit ratings could be lowered or rating agencies could issue adverse commentaries in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. In particular, a weakening of our financial condition, including an increase in our leverage or decrease in our profitability or cash flows, could adversely affect our ability to obtain necessary funds, result in a credit rating downgrade or change in outlook, or otherwise increase our cost of borrowing.

U.S. Tariffs and Global Economy

The current domestic and international political environment, including existing and potential changes to U.S. policies related to global trade and tariffs, have resulted in uncertainty surrounding the future state of the global economy. In particular, the ongoing trade dispute between the U.S. and China has resulted in the U.S. imposing tariffs of 25% on many products from China. While exclusions from tariffs were granted for certain products from China, nearly all of these exclusions have expired. In fiscal 2022, approximately 29% of the products we sold were produced in China. As we continue to manage the impact these tariffs may have on our business, we continue taking steps to mitigate some of these cost increases through negotiating lower costs from our vendors, increasing retail pricing as we deem appropriate, and sourcing from alternative countries. While our efforts have mitigated a substantial portion of the overall effect of increased tariffs, the enacted tariffs have increased our inventory costs and associated cost of sales for the remaining products still sourced from China.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors management believes to be reasonable. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to Part II, Item 7, “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as disclosed in our Annual Report. See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, which describes recent accounting pronouncements adopted by us.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting the Company, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Item 7A of Part II of the Annual Report. While our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 29, 2022, uncertainty with respect to the economic effects of global supply chain disruptions, inflation, geopolitical instability, including from the ongoing war in Ukraine, and COVID-19, among others, have introduced significant volatility in the financial markets, including interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. See further discussion in Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for additional details.

Table of Contents

Interest Rate Risk

Our operating results are subject to risk from interest rate fluctuations on our Credit Facilities, which carry variable interest rates. As of March 30, 2023, our Term Loan Facility and ABL Facility, which have variable interest rates, had remaining principal balances of $204.0 million and $106.5 million, respectively. A 1.0% increase in the effective interest rate for these debt instruments would cause an increase in interest expense of approximately $3.1 million over the next twelve months, excluding the impact of interest rate cap agreements. To lessen our exposure to changes in interest rate risk, we entered into two $75.0 million interest rate cap agreements in May 2021. The contracts effectively cap Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) based interest payments on a portion of our Term Loan Facility to less than 1.68% through April 2024. The U.S. Federal Reserve has continued raising interest rates in fiscal 2023. As a result, these agreements are partially offsetting increases in interest expense on our Term Loan Facility as rates have increased to a level above the specified SOFR caps. For additional information related to the Company’s Credit Facilities, refer to Note 3, “Debt.”

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, have reviewed the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 30, 2023 and, based on their evaluation, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Exhibit 10.1

FLOOR & DECOR HOLDINGS, INC.

Form of Performance Stock Unit Agreement

Pursuant to the

Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc.

2017 Stock Incentive Plan

AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of _____________ (the “Grant Date”) between Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” and, collectively with its controlled Affiliates, the “Employer”), and ____________________ (the “Participant”).

Preliminary Statement

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Committee hereby grants the Participant the right to receive the number of shares of Common Stock specified in Section 1 (the “Performance Stock Units”), as an Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director, on the Grant Date pursuant to the Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”). Except as otherwise indicated, any capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Plan. By signing and returning this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges having received and read a copy of the Plan and agrees to comply with it, this Agreement and all applicable laws and regulations.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Grant of Performance Stock Units. Subject to the Plan and the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein, including the conditions set forth in Section 2 hereof, the Participant is hereby granted Performance Stock Units on the Grant Date as follows. Each Performance Stock Unit represents an unfunded, unsecured right to receive one (1) share of Common Stock on the Payment Date(s) specified in Section 2(d) hereof.

Target Number of Performance Stock Units: ________________

Maximum Number of Performance Stock Units: __________________

2.Vesting.

(i)The number of Performance Stock Units (if any) that become vested shall be determined upon the date on which the Committee determines and certifies the extent to which the performance goals set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Performance Goals”) have been achieved (or not), which date shall occur as soon as practicable following the end of the Performance Period (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto), but in no event later than 60 days following the end of the Performance Period (the “Measurement Date”); provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination prior to the Measurement Date (except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement). In no event shall the number of Performance Stock Units that vest hereunder exceed the Maximum Number of Performance Stock Units indicated above. All Performance Stock Units that do not become vested as of the Measurement Date shall be automatically forfeited without consideration therefor. The Committee’s determination and certification of (i) the achievement of Performance Goals and (ii) the number of Performance Stock Units that vest (if any) pursuant to this Section 2(a), shall be final and binding on the Participant.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee shall have discretion to adjust the Performance Goals, or the metrics used to determine achievement of the Performance Goals, to reflect (A) a change in accounting standards or principles, (B) a significant acquisition or divestiture, (C) a significant capital transaction, (D) a change to or

difference in the applicable fiscal year, or (E) any other unusual, nonrecurring or other extraordinary event or item.

(ii)Detrimental Activity.

(1)In consideration for the grant of the Performance Stock Units and in addition to any other remedies available to the Company, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Performance Stock Units are subject to the provisions in the Plan regarding Detrimental Activity. If the Participant engages in any Detrimental Activity prior to, or during the two-year period after, any vesting of the Performance Stock Units, all unvested Performance Stock Units, and vested Performance Stock Units that have not been settled, shall be forfeited, without compensation, and the Committee shall be entitled to recover from the Participant (at any time within one year after such engagement in Detrimental Activity) an amount equal to the Fair Market Value as of the vesting date(s) of any Performance Stock Units that had vested and been settled in the period referred to above.

(2)The restrictions regarding Detrimental Activity are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of the Company and are considered by the Participant to be reasonable for such purposes. Without intending to limit the legal or equitable remedies available in the Plan and in this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges that engaging in Detrimental Activity will cause the Company material irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of such activity or threat thereof, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to the remedies provided under the Plan, to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction a temporary restraining order or a preliminary or permanent injunction restraining the Participant from engaging in Detrimental Activity or such other relief as may be required to specifically enforce any of the covenants in the Plan and this Agreement without the necessity of posting a bond, and in the case of a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction, without having to prove special damages.

(iii)Termination; Forfeiture. Except as provided in this Section 2(c), the Participant shall forfeit, without compensation, any and all unvested Performance Stock Units upon the Participant’s Termination for any reason. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, in the event of the Participant’s Termination by the Company without Cause within the one (1) year period immediately following a Change in Control, the Performance Stock Units shall become vested at a Payout Percentage of 100% and shall become payable in accordance with Section 2(d), in each case subject to and conditioned upon, (i) the Participant’s continued compliance with all confidentiality obligations and restrictive covenants to which the Participant is subject, and (ii) the Participant’s timely execution and delivery (without revocation) to the Company of a general release of all claims of any kind that the Participant has or may have against the Company and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, agents, representatives, and advisors (in a form satisfactory to the Company and that is delivered to the Participant no later than the date of the Participant’s Termination), within twenty-one (21) days (or such longer period as may be required by law).

(iv)Payment. The Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following the earliest of (i) the Measurement Date and (ii) the date the Performance Stock Units otherwise become vested in accordance with Section 2(c) (and in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the applicable date occurs) (each, a “Payment Date”), deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Participant one share of Common Stock with respect to each vested Performance Stock Unit, as settlement of such Performance Stock Unit and each such Performance Stock Unit shall thereafter be cancelled.

(v)Withholding. Unless otherwise directed or permitted by the Committee, the Participant shall pay or provide for all applicable withholding taxes in respect of the settlement of the Performance Stock Units by (i) remitting the aggregate amount of such taxes to the Company in full, by cash, or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company,

(ii) to the extent permitted by the Company, having the Employer withhold, from shares of Common Stock delivered upon settlement of the Performance Stock Units, a number of whole shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to an amount necessary to satisfy all required federal, state, local and other non-U.S. withholding obligations using up to the maximum statutory withholding rates, as determined by the Company, for federal, state, local or non-U.S. tax purposes, including payroll taxes, or (iii) to the extent permitted by the Company, by making arrangements with the Company to have such taxes withheld from other compensation due to the Participant.

3.Dividend Equivalents. With respect to ordinary cash dividends in respect of shares of Common Stock covered by any outstanding Performance Stock Units, Participant will have the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the amount of any ordinary cash dividend paid with respect to a share of Common Stock on or after the Grant Date and on or prior to the earlier to occur of (A) the Payment Date, or (B) the termination or forfeiture for any reason of the outstanding Performance Stock Units, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by such Performance Stock Units (a “Dividend Equivalent”). A Dividend Equivalent shall be subject to the same vesting restrictions and payment conditions as the Performance Stock Units to which such Dividend Equivalent relates, as set forth in Section 2(a) and subject to Section 2(c). Any Dividend Equivalents in respect of Performance Stock Units that do not vest, shall be forfeited and retained by the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, (I) if a Performance Stock Unit does not ultimately become vested hereunder, no Dividend Equivalent payments shall be made with respect to such unvested Performance Stock Unit, and (II) in no event shall a Dividend Equivalent be paid that would result in Participant receiving both the Dividend Equivalent and the actual dividend with respect to a Performance Stock Units and the corresponding share of Common Stock.

4.Termination and Change in Control. Except as expressly provided in Section 2(c), the provisions in the Plan regarding Termination and Change in Control shall apply to the Performance Stock Units.

5.Performance Stock Unit Transfer Restrictions. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Performance Stock Units may not be directly or indirectly transferred, sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of whether for value or for no value and whether voluntarily or involuntarily (including by operation of law) by the Participant (a “Transfer”) other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any other purported Transfer shall be void and unenforceable against the Company and its Affiliates.

6.Provisions of Plan Control.

Exhibit 10.2

FLOOR & DECOR HOLDINGS, INC.

Form of Performance Stock Unit Agreement

Pursuant to the

Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc.

2017 Stock Incentive Plan

AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ______________ (the “Grant Date”) between Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” and, collectively with its controlled Affiliates, the “Employer”), and _____________ (the “Participant”).

Preliminary Statement

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Committee hereby grants the Participant the right to receive the number of shares of Common Stock specified in Section 1 (the “Performance Stock Units”), as an Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director, on the Grant Date pursuant to the Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”). Except as otherwise indicated, any capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Plan. By signing and returning this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges having received and read a copy of the Plan and agrees to comply with it, this Agreement and all applicable laws and regulations.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Grant of Performance Stock Units. Subject to the Plan and the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein, including the conditions set forth in Section 2 hereof, the Participant is hereby granted Performance Stock Units on the Grant Date as follows. Each Performance Stock Unit represents an unfunded, unsecured right to receive one (1) share of Common Stock on the Payment Date(s) specified in Section 2(d) hereof.

Target Number of Performance Stock Units: _________________

Maximum Number of Performance Stock Units: ___________________

2.Vesting.

(i)The number of Performance Stock Units (if any) that become vested shall be determined upon the date on which the Committee determines and certifies the extent to which the performance goals set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Performance Goals”) have been achieved (or not), which date shall occur as soon as practicable following the end of the Performance Period (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto), but in no event later than 60 days following the end of the Performance Period (the “Measurement Date”); provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination prior to the Measurement Date (except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement). In no event shall the number of Performance Stock Units that vest hereunder exceed the Maximum Number of Performance Stock Units indicated above. All Performance Stock Units that do not become vested as of the Measurement Date shall be automatically forfeited without consideration therefor. The Committee’s determination and certification of (i) the achievement of Performance Goals and (ii) the number of Performance Stock Units that vest (if any) pursuant to this Section 2(a), shall be final and binding on the Participant.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee shall have discretion to adjust the Performance Goals, or the metrics used to determine achievement of the Performance Goals, to reflect (A) a change in accounting standards or principles, (B) a significant acquisition or divestiture, (C) a significant capital transaction, (D) a change to or

difference in the applicable fiscal year, or (E) any other unusual, nonrecurring or other extraordinary event or item.

(ii)Detrimental Activity.

(1)In consideration for the grant of the Performance Stock Units and in addition to any other remedies available to the Company, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Performance Stock Units are subject to the provisions in the Plan regarding Detrimental Activity. If the Participant engages in any Detrimental Activity prior to, or during the two-year period after, any vesting of the Performance Stock Units, all unvested Performance Stock Units, and vested Performance Stock Units that have not been settled, shall be forfeited, without compensation, and the Committee shall be entitled to recover from the Participant (at any time within one year after such engagement in Detrimental Activity) an amount equal to the Fair Market Value as of the vesting date(s) of any Performance Stock Units that had vested and been settled in the period referred to above.

(2)The restrictions regarding Detrimental Activity are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of the Company and are considered by the Participant to be reasonable for such purposes. Without intending to limit the legal or equitable remedies available in the Plan and in this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges that engaging in Detrimental Activity will cause the Company material irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of such activity or threat thereof, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to the remedies provided under the Plan, to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction a temporary restraining order or a preliminary or permanent injunction restraining the Participant from engaging in Detrimental Activity or such other relief as may be required to specifically enforce any of the covenants in the Plan and this Agreement without the necessity of posting a bond, and in the case of a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction, without having to prove special damages.

(iii)Termination; Forfeiture. Except as provided in this Section 2(c), the Participant shall forfeit, without compensation, any and all unvested Performance Stock Units upon the Participant’s Termination for any reason (for the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Participant becomes a Consultant or a Non-Employee Director upon the termination of his employment, unless otherwise determined by the Committee no Termination of Employment shall be deemed to occur until such time as such Eligible Employee is no longer an Eligible Employee, a Consultant or a Non-Employee Director). Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, in the event of the Participant’s Termination by the Company without Cause or due to the Participant’s Termination for Good Reason, in each case within the one (1) year period immediately following a Change in Control, the Performance Stock Units shall become vested at a Payout Percentage of 100% and shall become payable in accordance with Section 2(d), in each case subject to and conditioned upon, (i) the Participant’s continued compliance with all confidentiality obligations and restrictive covenants to which the Participant is subject, and (ii) the Participant’s timely execution and delivery (without revocation) to the Company of a general release of all claims of any kind that the Participant has or may have against the Company and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, agents, representatives, and advisors (in a form satisfactory to the Company and that is delivered to the Participant no later than the date of the Participant’s Termination), within twenty-one (21) days (or such longer period as may be required by law).

(iv)Payment. The Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following the earliest of (i) the Measurement Date and (ii) the date the Performance Stock Units otherwise become vested in accordance with Section 2(c) (and in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the applicable date occurs) (each, a “Payment Date”), deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Participant one share of Common Stock with respect to each vested Performance Stock Unit, as settlement of such Performance Stock Unit and each such Performance Stock Unit shall thereafter be cancelled.

(v)Withholding. Unless otherwise directed or permitted by the Committee, the Participant shall pay or provide for all applicable withholding taxes in respect of the settlement of the Performance Stock Units by (i) remitting the aggregate amount of such taxes to the Company in full, by cash, or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company, (ii) to the extent permitted by the Company, having the Employer withhold, from shares of Common Stock delivered upon settlement of the Performance Stock Units, a number of whole shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to an amount necessary to satisfy all required federal, state, local and other non-U.S. withholding obligations using up to the maximum statutory withholding rates, as determined by the Company, for federal, state, local or non-U.S. tax purposes, including payroll taxes, or (iii) to the extent permitted by the Company, by making arrangements with the Company to have such taxes withheld from other compensation due to the Participant.

3.Dividend Equivalents. With respect to ordinary cash dividends in respect of shares of Common Stock covered by any outstanding Performance Stock Units, Participant will have the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the amount of any ordinary cash dividend paid with respect to a share of Common Stock on or after the Grant Date and on or prior to the earlier to occur of (A) the Payment Date, or (B) the termination or forfeiture for any reason of the outstanding Performance Stock Units, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by such Performance Stock Units (a “Dividend Equivalent”). A Dividend Equivalent shall be subject to the same vesting restrictions and payment conditions as the Performance Stock Units to which such Dividend Equivalent relates, as set forth in Section 2(a) and subject to Section 2(c). Any Dividend Equivalents in respect of Performance Stock Units that do not vest, shall be forfeited and retained by the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, (I) if a Performance Stock Unit does not ultimately become vested hereunder, no Dividend Equivalent payments shall be made with respect to such unvested Performance Stock Unit, and (II) in no event shall a Dividend Equivalent be paid that would result in Participant receiving both the Dividend Equivalent and the actual dividend with respect to a Performance Stock Units and the corresponding share of Common Stock.

4.Termination and Change in Control. Except as expressly provided in Section 2(c), the provisions in the Plan regarding Termination and Change in Control shall apply to the Performance Stock Units.

5.Performance Stock Unit Transfer Restrictions. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Performance Stock Units may not be directly or indirectly transferred, sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of whether for value or for no value and whether voluntarily or involuntarily (including by operation of law) by the Participant (a “Transfer”) other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any other purported Transfer shall be void and unenforceable against the Company and its Affiliates.

6.Provisions of Plan Control. This Agreement is subject to all the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan, including the amendment provisions thereof, and to such rules, regulations and interpretations relating to the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee and as may be in effect from time to time. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. If and to the extent that this Agreement conflicts or is inconsistent with the Plan, the Plan shall control, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified accordingly.

Exhibit 10.4

FLOOR & DECOR HOLDINGS, INC.

Form of 2023 Special Performance and Service Restricted Stock Unit Agreement

Pursuant to the

Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc.

2017 Stock Incentive Plan

AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ______________ (the “Grant Date”) between Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” and, collectively with its controlled Affiliates, the “Employer”), and _______________ (the “Participant”).

Preliminary Statement

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Committee hereby grants the Participant the right to receive the number of shares of Common Stock specified in Section 1 and Section 2 hereof (the “Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units”), as an Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director, on the Grant Date pursuant to the Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”). Except as otherwise indicated, any capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Plan. By signing and returning this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges having received and read a copy of the Plan and agrees to comply with it, this Agreement and all applicable laws and regulations.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Grant of Service Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the Plan and the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein, the Participant is hereby granted _____ Restricted Stock Units on the Grant Date, which are designated as “Service Restricted Stock Units”. Each Service Restricted Stock Unit represents an unfunded, unsecured right to receive one (1) share of Common Stock on the Payment Date(s) specified in Section 5 hereof. The Service Restricted Stock Units shall vest, if at all, on the dates (each a “Vesting Date”) and in the cumulative number of Service Restricted Stock Units provided in the table below, rounded to the nearest whole Service Restricted Stock Unit, subject to the Participant not having incurred a Termination prior to the applicable Vesting Date. There shall be no proportionate or partial vesting in the periods between the vesting dates.

Vesting Date Cumulative Vested Percentage
Second anniversary of the Grant Date 33%
Third anniversary of the Grant Date 100%

2.Grant of Performance Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the Plan and the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein, the Participant is hereby granted Restricted Stock Units on the Grant Date as follows, which Restricted Stock Units are designated as “Performance Restricted Stock Units”. Each Performance Restricted Stock Unit represents an unfunded, unsecured right to receive one (1) share of Common Stock on the Payment Date(s) specified in Section 5 hereof.

Target Number of Performance Restricted Stock Units: _____________

Maximum Number of Performance Restricted Stock Units: _____________

The number of Performance Restricted Stock Units (if any) that become vested shall be determined upon the date on which the Committee determines and certifies the extent to which the Performance Goals set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto have been achieved (or not), which date shall occur as soon as practicable following the end of the Performance Period (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto), but in no event later than 60 days following the end of the Performance Period (the “Measurement Date”); provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date (except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement). In no event shall the number of Performance Restricted Stock Units that vest hereunder exceed the Maximum Number of Performance Restricted Stock Units indicated above. All Performance Restricted Stock Units that do not become vested as of the Measurement Date shall be automatically forfeited without consideration therefor. The Committee’s determination and certification of (i) the achievement of Performance Goals and (ii) the number of Performance Restricted Stock Units that vest (if any) pursuant to this Section 2, shall be final and binding on the Participant.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee shall have discretion to adjust the Performance Goals, or the metrics used to determine achievement of the Performance Goals, to reflect (A) a change in accounting standards or principles, (B) a significant acquisition or divestiture, (C) a significant capital transaction, (D) a change to or difference in the applicable fiscal year, or (E) any other unusual, nonrecurring or other extraordinary event or item.

3.Detrimental Activity.

(a)In consideration for the grant of Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units and in addition to any other remedies available to the Company, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units are subject to the provisions in the Plan regarding Detrimental Activity. If the Participant engages in any Detrimental Activity prior to, or during the two-year period after, any vesting of the Performance Stock Units, all unvested Performance Stock Units, and vested Performance Stock Units that have not been settled, shall be forfeited, without compensation, and the Committee shall be entitled to recover from the Participant (at any time within one year after such engagement in Detrimental Activity) an amount equal to the Fair Market Value as of the vesting date(s) of any Performance Stock Units that had vested and been settled in the period referred to above.

(b)The restrictions regarding Detrimental Activity are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of the Company and are considered by the Participant to be reasonable for such purposes. Without intending to limit the legal or equitable remedies available in the Plan and in this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges that engaging in Detrimental Activity will cause the Company material irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of such activity or threat thereof, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to the remedies provided under the Plan, to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction a temporary restraining order or a preliminary or permanent injunction restraining the Participant from engaging in Detrimental Activity or such other relief as may be required to specifically enforce any of the covenants in the Plan and this Agreement without the necessity of posting a bond, and in the case of a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction, without having to prove special damages. For purposes of this Section 3(b), a material breach of any agreement between the Participant and the Company or an Affiliate of the Company as described in prong (e) of the definition of “Detrimental Activity” shall include, but not be limited to, the breach of the covenants set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

4.Forfeiture. The Participant shall forfeit to the Company, without compensation, any and all unvested Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units upon the Participant’s Termination for any reason.

5.Payment. The Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable (a) with respect to the Performance Restricted Stock Units, following the third anniversary of the Grant Date and (b) with respect to the Service Restricted Stock Units, following the applicable Vesting Date, as applicable (and in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the applicable date occurs) (each, a “Payment Date”), deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Participant one (1) share of Common Stock with respect to each vested Performance and Service Restricted Stock Unit as settlement

of such Performance and Service Restricted Stock Unit and each such Performance and Service Restricted Stock Unit shall thereafter be cancelled.

6.Withholding. Unless otherwise directed or permitted by the Committee, the Participant shall pay or provide for all applicable withholding taxes in respect of the settlement of the Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units by (a) remitting the aggregate amount of such taxes to the Company in full, by cash, or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company, (b) to the extent permitted by the Company, having the Employer withhold, from shares of Common Stock delivered upon settlement of the Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units, a number of whole shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to an amount necessary to satisfy all required federal, state, local and other non-U.S. withholding obligations using up to the maximum statutory withholding rates, as determined by the Company, for federal, state, local or non-U.S. tax purposes, including payroll taxes, or (c) to the extent permitted by the Company, by making arrangements with the Company to have such taxes withheld from other compensation due to the Participant.

7.Dividend Equivalents. With respect to ordinary cash dividends in respect of shares of Common Stock covered by any outstanding Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units. Participant will have the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) the amount of any ordinary cash dividend paid with respect to a share of Common Stock on or after the Grant Date and on or prior to the earlier to occur of (i) the Payment Date, or (ii) the termination or forfeiture for any reason of the outstanding Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units, multiplied by (b) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by such Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units (a “Dividend Equivalent”). A Dividend Equivalent shall be subject to the same vesting restrictions and payment conditions as the Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units to which such Dividend Equivalent relates as set forth in Section 1 or Section 2, as applicable, and subject to Section 4. Any Dividend Equivalents in respect of Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units that do not vest, shall be forfeited and retained by the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, (A) if a Performance and Service Restricted Stock Unit does not ultimately become vested hereunder, no Dividend Equivalent payments shall be made with respect to such unvested Performance and Service Restricted Stock Unit, and (B) in no event shall a Dividend Equivalent be paid that would result in Participant receiving both the Dividend Equivalent and the actual dividend with respect to a Performance and Service Restricted Stock Unit and the corresponding share of Common Stock.

8.Termination and Change in Control. The provisions in the Plan regarding Termination and Change in Control shall apply to the Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units.

9.Performance and Service Restricted Stock Unit Transfer Restrictions. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Performance and Service Restricted Stock Units may not be directly or indirectly transferred, sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of whether for value or for no value and whether voluntarily or involuntarily (including by operation of law) by the Participant (a “Transfer”) other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and any other purported Transfer shall be void and unenforceable against the Company and its Affiliates.

10.Provisions of Plan Control. This Agreement is subject to all the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan, including the amendment provisions thereof, and to such rules, regulations and interpretations relating to the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee and as may be in effect from time to time. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. If and to the extent that this Agreement conflicts or is inconsistent with the Plan, the Plan shall control, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified accordingly.
