CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance, business strategies, expectations for our business and any other statements of a future or forward-looking nature, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our financial condition, results of operations, earnings outlook and prospects or regarding our or our management’s expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future, including our expectations regarding our revenues, cost of revenues, operating expenses, other operating results, and other key metrics, and our ability to meet previously announced earnings guidance with respect to the Company and/or its individual segments. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the risks set forth in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this Report, except as required by law.
In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “continue,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “should,” “would”, and other similar words and expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. We cannot assure you that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to:
•changes adversely affecting the business in which we are engaged;
•geopolitical risks and changes in applicable laws or regulations;
•the possibility that Janus may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors;
•operational risk;
•any failure to effectively manage, and receive anticipated returns from, acquisitions, divestitures, investments, joint ventures and other portfolio actions;
•fluctuations in the demand for our products and services;
•the impact of supply chain disruptions and inflation and our ability to recoup rising costs in the rates we charge to our customers;
•the possibility that our long-lived assets and other assets, including inventory, property, plant, and equipment, intangibles, and investments in unconsolidated affiliates may become impaired;
•our ability to maintain the listing of our securities on a national securities exchange;
•the possibility of significant changes in foreign exchange rates and controls;
•litigation and regulatory enforcement risks, including the diversion of management’s time and attention and the additional costs and demands on Janus’s resources;
•general economic conditions, including the capital and credit markets, and adverse macroeconomic conditions, including unemployment, inflation, fluctuating interest rates, changes in consumer practices due to slower economic growth, and regional or global liquidity constraints;
•the possibility of political instability, war or acts of terrorism in any of the countries where we operate; and
•other risks detailed from time to time in our filings with the SEC, press releases, and other communications, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” included in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2023, and in the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Principles of Consolidation
Reclassifications and Adjustments
Certain items have been reclassified in the prior year financial statements to conform to the presentation and classifications used in the current year. These reclassifications had no effect on our previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.
Use of Estimates in the Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, income taxes and the effective tax rates, inventory basis adjustments, the fair value of assets and liabilities, and assumptions related to business combinations, the recognition and valuation of unit-based compensation arrangements, the useful lives of property and equipment, the commencement date of leases, the incremental borrowing rate used to calculate lease liabilities, estimated progress toward completion for certain revenue contracts, allowance for credit losses, fair values and impairment of intangible assets and goodwill.

| Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | ||
Fair Value Measurement
The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. A three-tiered hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value. This hierarchy requires that the Company use observable market data, when available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value:
•Level 1, observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
•Level 2, inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly;
•Level 3, unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires that the Company develop its own assumptions.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies have not changed materially from those described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2023.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents include short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. The Company has short-term, highly liquid investments classified as cash and cash equivalents. Interest income on cash equivalents are offset against Interest expense on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Interest income was $0.8 and $1.2 for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable primarily arise from the sale of products and services to customers. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Additionally, accounts receivable are stated at estimated net realizable value, net of allowance for credit losses, which is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of customer accounts.
During the third quarter, we received notice that a customer was planning to file a petition for bankruptcy. In addition, given the overall change in market conditions and a higher interest rate environment, we experienced certain payment delays from a number of customers, yielding an additional increase in the provision for expected losses, totaling $8.1 and $8.6 for the three and nine months ending September 28, 2024, respectively.
The activity for the allowance for credit losses during the nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, is as follows:

Product Warranties
The Company records a liability for product warranties at the time of the related sale of goods. The liability is estimated using historical warranty experience, projected claim rates and expected costs per claim. The Company adjusts its liability for specific warranty matters when they become known and the exposure can be estimated. Product failure rates as well as material usage and labor costs incurred in correcting a product failure affect the Company's warranty liabilities. If actual costs differ from estimated costs, the Company must make a revision to the warranty liability. Generally, the Company offers warranties ranging between and three years for our products with the exception of warranties for roofing at one of our business units, where we offer warranties of up to 10 years.
The activity related to product warranty liabilities recorded in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities during the nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, is as follows:

Treasury Stock
We account for treasury stock under the cost method pursuant to the provisions of ASC 505-30, Treasury Stock. Under the cost method, the gross cost of the shares reacquired is charged to a contra equity account, treasury stock. The equity accounts that were originally credited for the original share issuance, common stock and additional paid-in capital, remain intact.
If the treasury shares are ever reissued in the future at a price higher than its cost, the difference will be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. When treasury stock is re-issued at a price lower than its cost, the difference will be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital to the extent that there are previously recorded gains to offset the losses. If there are no treasury stock gains in additional paid-in capital, the losses upon re-issuance of treasury stock are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. If treasury stock is reissued in the future, a cost flow assumption will be adopted to compute excesses and deficiencies upon subsequent share re-issuance.
Concentrations of Risk
Financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed the insured limits of the local country. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company sells its products and services mainly in the United States and European regions. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and limits the amount of credit extended when deemed necessary. The Company generally does not require its customers to provide collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. As of September 28, 2024, no customer accounted for more than 10% of the accounts receivable balance or more than 10% of revenues. For the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, the Company had one vendor that accounted for 16 % and 17 %, respectively, of all raw material and finished goods purchases. This vendor provides raw-materials to the Company which can be sourced by alternative vendors should the need arise.

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”), which amends ASC 805, Business Combinations (Topic 805), to add contract assets and contract liabilities to the list of exceptions to the recognition and measurement principles that apply to business combinations and to require that an acquiring entity recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”). Janus will be applying the pronouncement prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the adoption date.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and subsequent amendment to the initial guidance, ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope (collectively, “Topic 848”). Topic 848 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848. ASU 2022-06 defers the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022, to December 31, 2024. Effective April 2, 2023, the Company transitioned its credit agreements from LIBOR to the SOFR. The Company adopted this guidance prospectively on April 2, 2023, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On August 23, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combinations—Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement, under which an entity that qualifies as either a joint venture or a corporate joint venture as defined in the FASB ASC master glossary is required to apply a new basis of accounting upon the formation of the joint venture. Specifically, the ASU provides that a joint venture or a corporate joint venture (collectively, “joint ventures”) must initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value on the formation date. The amendments are effective for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption and retrospective application of the amendments are permitted. The Company does not believe this will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and requires more enhanced information about a reportable segment’s expenses, interim segment profit or loss, and how a public entity’s chief operating decision maker uses reported segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and allocating resources. The update will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023. We are assessing the effect of this update on our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and believe the adoption of this standard could add material additional segment disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands disclosures in a public entity’s income tax rate reconciliation table and other disclosures regarding cash taxes paid both in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The update will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are assessing the effect of this update on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which have been adopted or will be adopted as applicable, management does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

5. Business Combination
Terminal Door Asset Acquisition
On May 17, 2024, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Terminal Door, acquired 100 % of the business operations (the “T.M.C. Acquisition”) of Smith T.M.C., Inc., a Georgia corporation, Jerry O. Smith Company, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company, and J.O.S. Realty, Inc., a Georgia corporation (collectively, the “T.M.C. Sellers”). Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement for such acquisition, Terminal Door acquired substantially all assets of the T.M.C. Sellers related to the business of trucking terminal renovation, construction, remodeling, and maintenance. The Company accounted for this acquisition as a business combination.
For the nine months ended September 28, 2024, the Company incurred approximately $1.1 of third-party acquisition costs in connection with the T.M.C. Acquisition. These expenses are included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
The Company is continuing its review of the fair value estimates for certain assets acquired in connection with the T.M.C. Acquisition, including intangible assets, and liabilities assumed. The final determination of the purchase price is pending calculations of working capital and other adjustments, and as such, the Company has not yet finalized its allocation of the purchase price.

6. Acquired Intangible Assets and Goodwill
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value and amortized over their estimated useful lives. The carrying amount and accumulated amortization of recognized intangible assets at September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, are as follows:
(dollar amounts in millions) | September 28, 2024 | December 30, 2023 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Changes to gross carrying amount of recognized intangible assets due to translation adjustments include a gain of $0.7 and $0.8 for the periods ended September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The amortization of intangible assets is included in the general and administrative expense on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Amortization expense was approximately $8.2 and 7.4 for the three month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, and $23.7 and $22.3 for the nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.
Impairment of Indefinite-Lived Tradenames and Trademarks
We account for business acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations”. This standard requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Tradenames and Trademarks are recognized as a result of business combinations the company has made. ASC 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other” requires us to perform qualitative assessments to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of an asset exceeds its carrying amount. If a qualitative assessment determines an impairment is more likely than not, the Company is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. Otherwise, no further analysis is required. Alternatively, the Company may elect to proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test. In conducting a qualitative assessment, the Company analyzes actual and projected growth trends for revenue and margin, as well as historical performance versus plan and the results of prior quantitative tests performed. Additionally, the Company assesses factors that may impact its business, including macroeconomic conditions and the related impact, market-related exposures, plans to market for sale all or a portion of the business, competitive changes, new or discontinued product lines, changes in key personnel, and any potential risks to projected financial results.
During the three months ended September 28, 2024, the Company has experienced a revenue decline relative to expectations, historical performance, and strategic plans. This decrease was primarily driven by soft demand resulting from elevated interest rates and broader macroeconomic uncertainties, as well as a decline in stock price. Given these qualitative factors, the Company determined it was more likely than not that the fair value of the acquired assets could be impaired. Consequently, the Company performed a quantitative test of goodwill and indefinite-lived tradenames and trademarks as of September 28, 2024, ahead of the scheduled annual impairment test on September 29, 2024. This test applied a 50/50 weighting to both the discounted cash flow and guideline public company methods.
The quantitative test indicated that the carrying value of the DBCI tradename exceeded its fair value, leading the Company to record a non-cash impairment of $2.8 for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024. The impairment was recorded in the caption “Impairment” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. No other impairments were identified in the quantitative test performed.
If assumptions or estimates with respect to future performance vary from what is expected, including those assumptions related to revenue, margins, and economic indicators such as inflation and interest rates, it could result in a decline in fair value that may trigger future impairments.

8. Line of Credit
Amendment No. 3 to the ABL Credit and Guarantee Agreement - On April 10, 2023, the Company entered into Amendment Number Three (the “LOC Amendment No. 3”) to that certain ABL Credit and Guarantee Agreement, dated as of February 12, 2018 (the “2018 LOC Agreement”). The LOC Amendment No. 3, among other things, (i) replaced the interest rate based on the LIBOR and related LIBOR-based mechanics applicable to borrowings under the 2018 LOC Agreement with an interest rate based on the SOFR and related SOFR-based mechanics and (ii) updated certain other provisions of the 2018 LOC Agreement to reflect the transition from LIBOR to SOFR. The LOC Amendment No. 3 provided for a revolving line of credit of $80.0 with interest payments due in arrears. The interest rate on the facility is based on a base rate, unless a SOFR Rate (as defined in the 2018 LOC Agreement) option is chosen by the Company.
2023 ABL Credit and Guarantee Agreement - On August 3, 2023, the Company refinanced the revolving credit facility, pursuant to a new ABL Credit and Guarantee Agreement (the “2023 LOC Agreement”). The 2023 LOC Agreement, among other things (i) increased the previous aggregate commitments from $80.0 to $125.0 , (ii) updated the manner in which the previous borrowing base under the 2023 LOC Agreement was determined, and (iii) replaced the administrative agent with a new administrative agent. Interest payments with respect to the 2023 LOC Agreement are due in arrears. The maturity date is August 3, 2028.
The interest rate on the facility is based on a base rate, unless an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the 2023 LOC Agreement) option is chosen by the Company. If the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate is elected, the interest computation is equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, which is subject to a 10 basis points flat credit spread adjustment (“CSA”) plus the SOFR Margin (as defined in the 2023 LOC Agreement) of either 1.25 %, 1.50 %, or 1.75 %, based on excess availability (as of September 28, 2024, the SOFR Margin Rate was 1.25 %). As of September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the interest rate in effect for the facility was 6.60 % and 6.76 %, respectively. The line of credit is collateralized by accounts receivable and inventories. The Company accrues an unused commitment fee to the administrative agent at the varying rate of 0.25 % to 0.38 %, based on the unused portion of the maximum commitment, as defined in the 2023 LOC agreement.
The Company incurred $1.3 of debt issuance costs, which were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the facility that expires on August 3, 2028, using the straight-line method, and are presented as part of other assets within our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The amortization of the deferred loan costs is included in interest expense, net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
Amortization of approximately $0.1 0.2 0.9 and $1.1 , respectively. There were no
As of September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company maintained one letter of credit totaling approximately $0.4 124.6

Total long-term debt | $ | $ | |||||||||
Notes Payable - First Lien - As a result of a credit rating upgrade in March 2024, the First Lien term loan allowed the previous applicable margin rate to decrease from 3.25 % to 3.00 %. On April 18, 2024, the Company made a voluntary prepayment of $21.9 toward the First Lien Credit and Guarantee Agreement, dated as of February 12, 2018 (as amended to date, the “First Lien Term Loan”). As a result of the prepayment, the Company expensed an additional $0.4 for pro-ration of the unamortized debt issuance costs that was amortizing over the expected life of the borrowing. The Company used cash on hand to make the voluntary prepayment.
On April 30, 2024, the Company completed a repricing pursuant to Amendment No. 7 (the “Repricing Amendment”) to the First Lien Term Loan. The Repricing Amendment reduced the applicable interest rate margins on the $600.0 First Lien Term Loan from 2.00 % to 1.50 % for the term loans bearing interest at rates based on the base rate, and from 3.00 % to 2.50 % for the term loans bearing interest at rates based on the secured overnight financing rate. In addition to the change in the applicable margin rate, the Company is no longer subject to a CSA rate of 0.1 %. Interest is payable in arrears (with respect to Base Rate loans) or at the end of an interest period selected by the Company (with respect to SOFR loans). The outstanding loan balance is to be repaid on a quarterly basis in an amount equal to 0.25 % of the original balance of the amended loan, with the remaining principal due on the maturity date of August 3, 2030. The debt was secured by substantially all of the Company’s business assets. There are no prepayment penalties if the Company makes voluntary prepayments on the outstanding principal balance. The interest rate on the First Lien Term Loan as of September 28, 2024 was 7.75 %, which is a variable rate based on Adjusted Term SOFR and includes an applicable margin percentage of 2.50 %.
The Repricing Amendment was accounted for in accordance with ASC 470-50, “Debt - Modification and Extinguishment.” The First Lien Term Loan consists of a syndicate of lenders which were evaluated, for accounting purposes, as individual lenders. Certain lenders exited the Term Loan credit facility in connection with the Repricing Amendment, which resulted in extinguishment accounting. There were $599.0 of borrowings held by lenders in the First Lien Term Loan as amended by the Repricing Amendment, that were also held by lenders in the First Lien Term Loan prior to the Repricing Amendment.
As a result, the Company wrote off an immaterial portion of unamortized debt financing costs associated with the First Lien Term Loan prior to the Repricing Agreement, that was deemed extinguished and recognized within “Loss on extinguishment and modification of debt” on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. In conjunction with the Repricing Amendment, the Company incurred $1.7 of costs from third parties that did not qualify for capitalization of deferred finance costs, and were expensed within Loss on extinguishment and modification of debt on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

11. Income Taxes
The Company is taxed as a Corporation under Subchapter C, for U.S. income tax purposes and similar sections of the state income tax laws. The Company’s effective tax rate is based on pre-tax earnings, enacted U.S. statutory tax rates, non-deductible expenses, and certain tax rate differences between U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The foreign subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United Kingdom, France, Poland, Canada and Australia, as necessary, and are included on the U.S. tax returns as pass-through entities, with the exception of Poland and Canada, which are shown on the U.S. tax return as a corporation and are not taxed in the U.S. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). The Company determines its provision for income taxes for interim periods using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate on year to date ordinary income and records any changes affecting the estimated annual effective tax rate in the interim period in which the changes occur. The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of provisions for federal, state, and foreign income taxes. Deferred tax liabilities and assets attributable to different tax jurisdictions are not offset.

12. Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when both parties have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, each party’s rights and payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it is entitled. Revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised good or service to a customer. The performance obligations typically have an original expected duration of one year or less.
Contract Balances
Contract assets are the rights to consideration in exchange for goods and services that the Company has transferred to a customer. Revenues in excess of billings result from revenues recognized over time. Unbilled receivables result from revenues recognized point in time and represent an unconditional right to payment for earned revenues and result from timing differences between when revenues are earned and billed for. Unbilled receivables are recognized as accounts receivable when they are billed. Contract liabilities result from revenues recognized over time and represent cash received in excess of revenue earned on active projects. Where the Company receives a down-payment from the customer, it is recorded in customer deposits within accrued expenses and other current liabilities until the project becomes active.
Contract balances as of September 28, 2024 were as follows:
(dollar amounts in millions) | |||||
Revenues in excess of billings at September 28, 2024 | $ | ||||

13. Equity Compensation
2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan
The Company maintains its 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) under which it grants share-based awards to eligible directors, officers and employees in order to attract, retain and reward such individuals and strengthen the mutuality of interest between such individuals and the Company’s stockholders. The Plan allows the Company to issue and grant 15,125,000 shares.
The Company measures compensation expense for share-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). During the nine month period ended September 28, 2024, the Company granted share-based awards including restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) under the Plan. The grant date fair value of RSUs and PSUs is equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on either: (i) the date of grant; or (ii) the previous trading day, depending on the level of administration required. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur, any unvested RSUs, PSUs or stock options are forfeited upon a “Termination of Service,” as defined in the Plan, or as otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement or determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. In connection with the equity awards, the share-based compensation expense was $1.9 and $1.8 for the three month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, and $7.2 and $5.4 for the nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The income tax benefit from share-based compensation was $0.4 and $0.3 for the three month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, and $1.3 and $1.0 for the nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.
Restricted Stock Unit Grants
RSUs are subject to a vesting period between and four years . RSU activity for the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 is as follows:

Share-based compensation expense for RSUs is recognized straight line over the respective vesting period, reduced for actual forfeitures, and included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Total compensation expense related to the above awards was approximately $2.9 and $1.0 for the three month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, and $6.5 and $2.6 for the nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. As of September 28, 2024, there was an aggregate of $20.4 of unrecognized expense related to the RSUs granted, which the Company expects to amortize over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.

Performance-based Restricted Stock Unit Grants
PSU awards are based on the satisfaction of the Company’s three-year cumulative adjusted EBITDA. The number of PSUs that become earned can range between 0 % and 200 % of the original target number of PSUs. PSUs are subject to a three-year performance cliff-vesting period.
PSUs activity for the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 is as follows:

(1) This number excludes 242,353 performance stock units, which represents the incremental number of units that would be issued based on performance results from previously-granted PSU awards.
(2) This number includes 431,355 performance stock units, which are projecting to payout at 0 % due to performance results from previously-granted PSU awards.
Share-based compensation expense for PSUs is recognized straight line over the requisite vesting period, reduced for actual forfeitures, and included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Total compensation (benefit) expense related to the PSUs was approximately $(1.1 ) and $0.6 for the three month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, and $0.2 and $2.2 for the nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. As of September 28, 2024, there was an aggregate of $0.4 of unrecognized expense related to the PSUs granted, which the Company expects to amortize over a weighted-average period of 0.3 years.
The above table represents PSUs assuming 100 % of target payout at the time of the grant. The actual payout of the 2022 grants will be in a range of 0 % to 200 %, depending on performance results for the three-year performance period from January 2, 2022, through December 28, 2024. As of September 28, 2024, the Company deemed the estimate of the PSUs granted in fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 to be issued at 200 % of target, and have reflected such estimates within the share-based compensation expense.
The actual payout of the 2023 grants will be in a range of 0 % to 200 %, depending on performance results for the three-year performance period from January 1, 2023, through December 27, 2025. As of September 28, 2024, the Company deemed the estimate of the PSUs granted in the nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 to be issued at 0 % of target, and have reflected such estimates within the share-based compensation expense.
The actual payout of the 2024 grants will be in a range of 0 % to 200 %, depending on performance results for the three-year performance period from January 1, 2024, through December 26, 2026. As of September 28, 2024, the Company deemed the estimate of the PSUs granted in the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 to be issued at 0 % of target, and have reflected such estimates within the share-based compensation expense.
Stock Options
Stock options are granted by applying a Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value on the grant date. Stock options are subject to a vesting period of either or four years . Stock option awards typically vest in 33 % or 25 % annual installments on each annual anniversary of the vesting commencement date for the duration of the vesting period, and expire ten years from the grant date.
The principal assumptions utilized in valuing stock options include, the expected option life, the risk-free interest rate (an estimate based on the yield of United States Treasury zero coupon with a maturity equal to the expected life of the option), the expected stock price volatility using the historical and implied price volatility, and the expected dividend yield.

14. Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. For the nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, dilutive potential common shares include stock options and unvested RSUs. Dilutive earnings per share (“EPS”) excludes all common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS attributable to common stockholders for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023:

15. Share Repurchase Program
On February 28, 2024, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company is authorized to purchase up to $100.0 of its common stock. The repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and may be terminated by the Company’s Board of Directors at any time. As of September 28, 2024, $29.9 is remaining under the share repurchase program. There was no repurchase program in place in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023.
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 imposes a 1% excise tax on share repurchases in excess of issuances, which is effective for Janus for repurchases completed after December 31, 2022. We reflect the excise tax within equity as part of the repurchase of the common stock.

Business Overview
Janus is a global manufacturer and supplier of turn-key self-storage, commercial, and industrial building solutions including: roll up and swing doors, hallway systems, relocatable storage units, and facility and door automation technologies with manufacturing operations in Georgia, Texas, Arizona, Indiana, North Carolina, Poland, United Kingdom (“U.K.”), and Australia. The self-storage industry is comprised of institutional and non-institutional facilities. Institutional facilities typically include multi-story, climate controlled facilities located in prime
30
locations owned and/or managed by large Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) or returns-driven operators of scale and are primarily located in the top 50 U.S. metropolitan statistical areas (“MSAs”), whereas the vast majority of non-institutional facilities are single-story, non-climate controlled facilities located outside of city centers owned and/or managed by smaller private operators that are mostly located outside of the top 50 U.S. MSAs. Janus is highly integrated with customers at every phase of a project, including facility planning/design, construction, access control and the restoration, rebuilding, and replacement (“R3”) of self-storage facilities.
Our business is operated through two geographic regions that comprise our two reportable segments: Janus North America and Janus International. The Janus International segment is comprised of JIEH, whose production and sales are largely in Europe and Australia. The Janus North America segment is comprised of all the other entities including Janus International Group, LLC (“Janus Core”), together with each of its operating subsidiaries, Betco, Inc. (“BETCO”), Noke, Inc. (“NOKE”), Asta Industries, Inc. (“ASTA”), Access Control Technologies, LLC (“ACT”), U.S. Door & Building Components, LLC (“U.S. Door”), Janus Door, LLC (“Janus Door”), Steel Door Depot.com, LLC (“Steel Door Depot”), Janus International Canada, Ltd. (“Janus Canada”), and Terminal Door, LLC (“Terminal Door”).
Furthermore, our business is comprised of three primary sales channels: self-storage - new construction, self-storage - R3 (R3), and commercial and other. The commercial and other category is primarily comprised of roll-up sheet and rolling steel door sales into the commercial marketplace.
New construction consists of engineering and project management work pertaining to the design, building, and logistics of a greenfield new self-storage facility tailored to customer specifications while being compliant with ADA regulations. Any Nokē Smart Entry System revenue associated with a new construction project also rolls up into this sales channel.
The concept of R3 is to remodel self-storage facilities including storage unit doors, hallways, ceilings, offices, optimizing unit mix and utilizing vacant land for movable storage units (Janus MASS relocatable storage units), and adding a more robust security solution to enable customers to (1) charge higher rental rates and (2) compete with modern self-storage facilities and large operators. In addition, the R3 sales channel includes new self-storage capacity being brought online through conversions and expansions. R3 transforms facilities through door replacement, facility upgrades, Nokē Smart Entry Systems, and relocatable storage MASS (Moveable Additional Storage Structures).
Commercial light duty steel roll-up doors are designed for applications that require less frequent and less demanding operations. Janus offers heavy duty commercial grade steel doors (minimized dead-load, or constant weight of the curtain itself) perfect for warehouses, commercial buildings, and terminals, designed with a higher gauge and deeper guides, which combat the heavy scale of use with superior strength and durability. Janus also offers rolling steel doors known for minimal maintenance and easy installation with, but not limited to, the following options for: commercial slat doors, heavy duty service doors, fire doors, fire rated counter shutters, insulated service doors, counter shutters and grilles. Following the T.M.C. Acquisition (hereinafter defined), our business expanded to provide trucking terminal renovation, construction, remodeling, and maintenance services to trucking customers in the Southeast United States.
Executive Overview
Janus’s operational and corporate strategy is to penetrate the self-storage, commercial and industrial storage markets, as well as capitalizing on the aging self-storage facilities, while continuing to diversify our products and solutions. Janus is a bespoke provider of products and solutions for our clients.

Business Segment Information
Our business is operated through two geographic regions that comprise our two reportable segments: Janus North America and Janus International.
Janus North America produces and provides various fabricated components such as commercial and self-storage doors, walls, hallway systems, metal roof panels, metal wall panels and building components used primarily by owners or builders of self-storage facilities. Installation services are also provided along with the products. Janus also provides industrial building solutions. Janus North America represents approximately 90% - 95% of the Company’s revenue.
The Janus International segment, whose production and sales are largely in Europe and Australia, produces and provides similar products and services as Janus North America, with the exception that the international segment does not sell into the Commercial sales channel. Janus International represents approximately 5% - 10% of Janus’s revenue.
Acquisitions
Our accretive merger and acquisition (“M&A”) strategy focuses on (i) portfolio diversification into attractive and logical adjacencies, (ii) geographic expansion, and (iii) technological innovation. Inorganic growth, through acquisitions, serves to increase Janus’s strategic growth.
On May 17, 2024, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Terminal Door, acquired 100% of the business operations (the “T.M.C. Acquisition”) of Smith T.M.C., Inc., a Georgia corporation, Jerry O.Smith Company, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company, and J.O.S. Realty, Inc., a Georgia corporation (collectively, the “T.M.C. Sellers”). Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement for such acquisition, Terminal Door acquired substantially all the assets of the T.M.C. Sellers related to the business of trucking terminal renovation, construction, remodeling, and maintenance for total consideration of $59.4 .
Human Capital
Human capital is also one of the main cost drivers of the manufacturing, selling, and administrative processes of Janus. As a result, management believes that headcount reflects Janus’s operational status, indicating whether the business is expanding or contracting. As of September 28, 2024, and September 30, 2023, the headcount was 2,306 employees (including 375 temporary employees) and 2,374 employees (including 503 temporary employees), respectively.
Basis of Presentation
The Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been derived from the accounts of Janus and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Janus’s fiscal year follows a 4-4-5 calendar which divides a year into four quarters of 13 weeks, grouped into two 4-week “months” and one 5-week “month.” As a result, some monthly comparisons are not comparable as one month is longer than the other two. The major advantage of a 4-4-5 calendar is that the end date of the period is always the same day of the week, making manufacturing planning easier as every period is the same length. Every fifth or sixth year will require a 53rd week.
We have presented results of operations, including the related discussion and analysis for:
•The thirteen week period ended September 28, 2024 compared to the thirteen week period ended September 30, 2023.
Components of Results of Operations
Product Revenues. Product revenues represent the revenue from the sale of products, including steel roll-up and swing doors, rolling steel doors, steel structures, as well as hallway systems and facility and door automation technologies for commercial and self-storage customers. Product revenue is recognized upon transfer of control to the customer, which generally takes place at the point of destination. Product revenues also include all revenues affiliated with erecting a self-storage facility for our customers, which is recognized over-time, over the life of the contract. We expect our product revenue may vary from period to period based on, among other things, the timing and size of orders and delivery of products and the impact of significant transactions. Revenues are monitored and analyzed as a function of sales reporting within the following sales channels; new construction, R3, and commercial and other.
Service Revenues. Service revenues reflect installation services to customers for facilities, including steel roll-up and swing doors, hallway systems, and relocatable storage units, which is recognized over time based on the satisfaction of our performance obligation. Janus is highly integrated with customers at every phase of a project, including facility planning/design, construction, access control and R3 of damaged, or end-of-life products or rebranding of facilities due to market consolidation. Service revenues also include trucking terminal renovation, construction, remodeling, and maintenance services to trucking customers.
Service obligations are primarily short term and completed within a one-year time period. We expect our service revenue to increase as we add new customers and our existing customers continue to add more and more content per square foot.
Product Cost of Revenues. Product costs of revenues includes the manufacturing cost of our steel roll-up and swing doors, rolling steel doors, steel structures, and hallway systems which primarily consists of amounts paid to our third-party contract suppliers and personnel-related costs directly associated with manufacturing operations, depreciation on certain assets, as well as other overhead and indirect costs. Our product cost of revenues includes warranty costs, excess and obsolete inventory charges, shipping costs, cost of spare or replacement parts,
32
and an allocated portion of overhead costs, including depreciation. Product costs of revenues also include all costs affiliated with erecting a self-storage facility for our customers. We expect our product cost of revenues to correlate to our product revenues.
Service Cost of Revenues. Cost of services includes third-party installation-based subcontractor costs directly associated with the installation of our products. We expect our service cost of revenues to correlate to our service revenues.
Selling and Marketing Expense. Selling expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits of employees engaged in selling activities as well as related travel, advertising, and trade shows/conventions. We expect selling expenses to correlate to overall revenues, with some deviations for strategic investments.
General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses are comprised primarily of expenses relating to back office employee compensation and benefits, provision for expected credit losses, travel, meals and entertainment expenses as well as depreciation on certain assets, and amortization. We expect general and administrative expenses to correlate to overall revenues, with some deviations for strategic investments.
Interest Expense, net. Consists of interest expense on short-term and long-term debt and amortization on deferred financing fees (see Note 9 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for additional information), partially offset by interest income earned on cash equivalents.
Key Performance Measures
Management evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on the revenue of services and products, gross profit, operating margins, and cash from business operations. We use Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial metric, as a supplemental measure of our performance in order to provide investors with an improved understanding of underlying performance trends. Please see the section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for further discussion of this financial measure, including the reasons why we use such financial measures and reconciliations of such financial measures to the nearest GAAP financial measures.
The following tables set forth key performance measures for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023:

Total revenue decreased by $50.0 or 17.9% for the three month period ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2023, and decreased by $69.6 or 8.7% for the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2023. The $63.7 and $87.3 decline in organic revenue for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively, is attributed to a decline in volume associated with customer deferrals of projects from the uncertainty in the economic and interest rate environment. The organic decline was partially offset by $13.7 and $17.7 in inorganic revenue from the T.M.C. Acquisition, for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $33.1 or 43.4% for the three month period ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2023, and decreased by $37.5 or 17.7% for the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to decreased margin from the decrease in revenue as noted above, as well as the increase in provision for expected losses on accounts receivable, and a decline from leverage on fixed costs, yielding a lower margin, partially offset by inorganic revenue and EBITDA from the T.M.C. Acquisition.
Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue decreased 850bps and 260bps for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA in the three and nine month period ended September 28, 2024, was primarily due to the items noted above. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section).

Factors Affecting the Results of Operations
Key Factors Affecting the Business and Financial Statements
Janus’s management believes our performance and future growth depends on a number of factors that present significant opportunities but also pose risks and challenges.
Factors Affecting Revenues
Janus’s revenues from products sold are driven by economic conditions, which impacts new construction of self-storage facilities, R3 of self-storage facilities, and commercial revenue.
Janus periodically modifies sales prices of its products due to changes in costs for raw materials and energy, market conditions, labor and logistics costs and the competitive environment. In certain cases, realized price increases are less than the announced price increases due to project pricing, competitive reactions and changing market conditions.
Janus also offers a wide assortment of products that are differentiated by style, design, and performance attributes. Pricing and margins for products within the assortment vary. In addition, changes in the relative quantity of products purchased at different price points can impact year-to-year comparisons of net sales and operating income.
Service revenue is driven by the product revenue and the increase in value-added services, such as installation and general contracting, project management, and third-party security. Janus differentiates itself through on-time delivery, efficient installation, customer service satisfaction, and a reputation for high quality products.
Factors Affecting Growth Through Acquisitions
Janus’s business strategy includes growth through the acquisition of other companies that yield our acceptable internal rate of return. Janus evaluates companies that it believes will strategically fit into its business and growth objectives, including those that will support its overall strategy of portfolio diversification, geographic expansion, and technological innovation, among other areas of focus. While Janus seeks acquisition opportunities that it believes will augment its business and growth objectives, certain factors could prevent acquisition opportunities from materializing, including target-company availability, relative valuation expectations, and certain due diligence considerations, among other factors.
Factors Affecting Operating Costs
Janus’s operating expenses are comprised of direct production costs (principally raw materials, labor, and energy), manufacturing overhead costs, freight, costs to purchase sourced products, selling and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.
Janus’s largest individual raw material expenditure is steel coils. Fluctuations in the prices of steel coil are generally beyond Janus’s control and have a direct impact on the financial results. Janus enters into agreements with large suppliers in order to lock in steel coil prices for part of Janus’s production needs. These agreements are renewed annually and partially mitigate the potential impacts of short-term steel coil price fluctuations. These arrangements allow Janus to purchase quantities of product within specified ranges as outlined in the contracts.
Outbound freight costs are driven by Janus’s volume of product revenues and are subject to the freight market pricing environment.

(1) Product revenues include product revenues transferred at a point in time and product revenues transferred over time.
Total revenue decreased by $50.0 or 17.9% for the three month period ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2023, and decreased by $69.6 or 8.7% for the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2023. The organic revenue decline for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024 is substantially all attributed to a decline in volume associated with customer deferrals of projects from the uncertainty in the economic and interest rate environment. The organic decline was partially offset by $13.7 and $17.7 in inorganic revenue from the T.M.C. Acquisition, for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, respectively.

New construction sales decreased by $13.3 or 12.6% and increased by $27.6 or 9.5% for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The decrease for the three month period ended September 28, 2024 was due to project deferrals associated with macroeconomic uncertainty. The increase for the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 was driven by the elevated occupancy rates and demand within the Self storage - new construction sales channel.
R3 sales decreased by $29.8 or 34.4% and $63.4 or 25.1% for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The R3 sales decrease was due to project deferrals associated with macroeconomic uncertainty as well as a 50% decline in facility expansion and retail big-box conversion activity.

Commercial and other sales decreased by $6.9 or 7.8% and $33.8 or 13.1% for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was attributable to a decline in volumes for rolling sheet doors in the carports and sheds market, partially offset by $13.7 and $17.7 in inorganic revenue from the T.M.C. Acquisition, respectively.

The cost of revenues decreased by $22.1 or 13.7% and $44.9 or 9.6% for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The decrease in product cost of revenues of $27.1 and $47.9 for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively, is primarily attributable to the decline in volume. The increase in service cost of revenues of $5.0 and $3.0 for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively, is primarily attributable to the T.M.C. Acquisition partially offset by the decline in organic volume.
Operating Expenses - Selling and marketing
Selling and marketing expense decreased $0.6 or 3.4% and increased $2.6 or 5.3% for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023. The decrease for the three month period is due to a decrease in employee related expenses. The increase for the nine month period is due to an increase from strategic initiatives.
Operating Expenses - General and administrative
General and administrative expenses increased $9.7 or 27.8% and $17.9 or 17.2% for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The increase for the three and nine months is primarily a result of the increase for the provision of expected credit losses for customers based on higher uncertainty of collectability as a result of macroeconomic impacts and increases in employee expenses as a result of strategic initiatives.
Intangible Asset Impairment
Due to the overall decline in our revenues, earnings, and cash flows compared to expectations and historical periods, we recognized a non-cash impairment of $2.8 on our DBCI Tradename, for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net decreased $2.9 or 20.0% and $6.4 or 14.1% for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively, primarily due to voluntary debt repayments of $21.9 million during the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 and $85.3 million throughout the 2023 fiscal period, as well as the Repricing Agreement in April 2024, which lowered the overall interest rate, and the investment in cash equivalents, which resulted in interest income of $0.8 and $1.2 for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively. (See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section).
Income Taxes
Income tax expense decreased by $9.1 or 73.4% and $10.4 or 30.9% from $12.4 and $33.7 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively, to $3.3 and $23.3 expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively, due to a decrease in income before taxes.
Net Income
The $25.2 or 68.1% and $29.9 or 29.9% decrease in net income for three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 as compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively, is largely due to a decrease in revenues and increase in operating expenses partially offset by a decrease in cost of revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024.

Segment Results of Operations
We operate in and report financial results for two segments: Janus North America and Janus International with the following sales channels: self-storage - new construction, self-storage - R3, and commercial and other.
Segment operating income is the measure of profit and loss that our chief operating decision maker uses to evaluate the financial performance of the business and as the basis for resource allocation, performance reviews and compensation. For these reasons, we believe that segment operating income represents the most relevant measure of Segment profit and loss. Our chief operating decision maker may exclude certain charges or gains, such as corporate charges and other special charges, to arrive at a Segment operating income that is a more meaningful measure of profit and loss upon which to base our operating decisions. We define Segment operating margin as Segment operating income as a percentage of the segment’s Net revenues. The segment discussion that follows describes the significant factors contributing to the changes in results for each segment included in Results of Operations.

The $65.1 and $78.0 organic revenue decline for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, respectively, is substantially attributed to a decline in volume associated with customer deferrals of projects. The organic decline was partially offset by $13.7 and $17.7 in inorganic revenue from the T.M.C. acquisition, for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively.

The $24.2 or 16.4% and $41.3 or 9.7% decrease in cost of revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively, is primarily due to the decrease overall revenues.
The decrease of product cost of revenues of $29.7 and $48.1 for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively, is in line with the decline in product revenues.
The increase in service cost of revenues of $5.5 and $6.8 for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, is primarily attributable to an increase in service revenues as a result of the T.M.C. Acquisition.
Operating Expenses - Selling and marketing
Selling and marketing expenses decreased $0.9 or 5.3% from $16.9 and increased $1.8 or 3.8% from $46.8 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023 to $16.0 and $48.6 for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024, respectively. The decrease for the three month period is due to a decrease in employee related expenses. The increase for the nine month period is due to an increase in professional fees.
Operating Expenses - General and administrative
General and administrative expenses increased $9.8 or 31.2% and $18.4 or 19.6% for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The increase for the three and nine months is primarily a result of the increase for the provision of expected credit losses for customers based on higher uncertainty of collectability as a result of macroeconomic impacts and increases in employee expenses as a result of strategic initiatives.
Intangible Asset Impairment
Due to the overall decline in our revenues, earnings, cash flows compared to expectations and historical periods, we recognized a non-cash impairment of $2.8 on our DBCI Tradename.
Income from Operations
Income from operations decreased by $38.9 or 60.2% and $42.0 or 24.0% for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2024 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively, primarily due to an decrease in revenue yielding a decline in margin.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. In doing so, we review and analyze our current cash on hand, borrowing capacity, days sales outstanding, inventory turns, days payable outstanding, capital expenditure forecasts, interest and principal payments on debt and income tax payments.
Our primary sources of liquidity include cash balances on hand, cash flows from operations, debt offerings and borrowing availability under our existing credit facility. We believe our operating cash flows, along with funds available under the line of credit, provide sufficient liquidity to support Janus’s short and long-term liquidity and financing needs, which are working capital requirements, capital expenditures, service of indebtedness, and acquisitions.
Financial Policy
Our financial policy seeks to: (i) maintain appropriate leverage by using free cash flows to repay outstanding borrowing, including certain strategic capital investments, (ii) selectively invest in organic and inorganic growth to enhance our portfolio, and (iii) deploy capital through repurchases of common stock.
Liquidity Policy
We maintain a strong focus on liquidity and define our liquidity risk tolerance based on sources and uses to maintain a sufficient liquidity position to meet our obligations under both normal and stressed conditions. We manage our liquidity to provide access to sufficient funding to meet our business needs and financial obligations, as well as capital allocation and growth objectives, throughout business cycles.
We have operations in various foreign countries, principally the United Kingdom, France, Australia, and Poland. Therefore, changes in the value of the related currencies affect our financial statements when translated into U.S. dollars.

(1)Represents the original issuance date for the certain First Lien Credit and Guarantee Agreement, dated as of February 12, 2018 (as amended to date, the “First Lien Term Loan”). Subsequent to the original issuance of the First Lien Term Loan, the Company has amended the First Lien Term Loan on a number of occasions, including most recently on April 30, 2024 when the Company completed a repricing pursuant to the Repricing Amendment described below.
(2)The interest rate on the Repricing Amendment as of September 28, 2024, was 7.75%, which is a variable rate based on Adjusted Term SOFR plus an applicable margin percent of 2.50%.
As of September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company maintained one letter of credit totaling approximately $0.4, on which there were no balances due.
First Lien Term Loan - In April 2024, the Company made a voluntary prepayment of $21.9 toward the First Lien Term Loan. The Company used cash on hand to make the voluntary prepayment.
On April 30, 2024, the Company completed a repricing pursuant to Amendment No. 7 (the “Repricing Amendment”) to the First Lien Term Loan. The Repricing Amendment reduced the applicable interest rate margins on the $600.0 First Lien Term Loan from 2.0% to 1.50% for the term loans bearing interest at rates based on the base rate, and from 3.00% to 2.50% for the term loans bearing interest at rates based on the SOFR rate. In addition to the change in the applicable margin rate, the Company is no longer subject to a credit spread adjustment (“CSA”) rate of 0.1%. Interest is payable in arrears (with respect to base rate loans) or at the end of an interest period selected by the Company (with respect to SOFR loans). The outstanding loan balance is to be repaid on a quarterly basis in an amount equal to 0.25% of the original balance of the amended loan, with the remaining principal due on the maturity date of August 3, 2030. The interest rate on the First Lien Term Loan as of September 28, 2024, was 7.75%, which is a variable rate based on Adjusted Term SOFR and includes an applicable margin percentage of 2.50%. In conjunction with the Repricing Amendment, the Company incurred $1.7 of costs from third parties that did not qualify for capitalization of deferred finance costs and were expensed within “Loss on extinguishment and modification of debt” on the

Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. See Note 9 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for a further discussion.
Revolving Credit Facility - The revolving credit facility bears interest at a floating rate per annum consisting of the SOFR rate plus an applicable margin percent based on excess availability and a 10 basis points flat CSA. There was no outstanding balance on the line of credit as of September 28, 2024. As of September 28, 2024, the interest rate in effect for the facility was 6.60%. The line of credit is secured by accounts receivable and inventories. See Note 8 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for a further discussion.
The LOC Agreement and Amendment No. 6 First Lien contain affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on, subject to certain exceptions, the incurrence of indebtedness, the incurrence of liens, fundamental changes, dispositions, restricted payments, investments, transactions with affiliates as well as other covenants customary for financings of these types.
The LOC Agreement also includes a financial covenant, applicable only when the excess availability is less than the greater of (i) 10% of the lesser of the aggregate commitments under the line of credit facility and the borrowing base, and (ii) $10.0. In such circumstances, we would be required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio for the trailing four quarters equal to at least 1.00 to 1.00, subject to our ability to make an equity cure (no more than twice in any four quarter period and up to five times over the life of the facility). As of September 28, 2024, we were compliant with our covenants under the agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness.
As of September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company maintained one letter of credit totaling approximately $0.4 on which there were no balances due. The amount available on the line of credit as of both September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023 was approximately $124.6.

The following table presents a summary of cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the following comparative periods. For additional detail, please see the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net cash provided by operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $43.9 for the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 as compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2023. This decrease of $36.2 from the net cash activity from the net working capital requirements, with a further reduction of $7.7 from the decline in net income adjusted for non-cash items.
Net cash used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased by $61.5 for the nine month period ended September 28, 2024 as compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2023. The increase in cash used was primarily due to the T.M.C. Acquisition which resulted in $59.4 of cash used.
Net cash used in financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities decreased by $4.6 for the period ended September 28, 2024 as compared to the period ended September 30, 2023. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in net debt principal payments of $89.3 in the nine month period ending September 30, 2023 compared to a $23.4 payments in the nine months period ending September 28, 2024. The decrease in debt pay down was partially offset by executing on our share repurchase program of $70.2.
Capital allocation strategy
We continually assess our capital allocation strategy, including decisions relating to M&A, dividends, stock repurchases, capital expenditures, and debt pay-downs. The timing, declaration and payment of future dividends, if any, falls within the discretion of Janus’s Board of Directors and will depend upon many factors, including, but not limited to, Janus’s financial condition and earnings, the capital requirements of the business, restrictions imposed by applicable law, and any other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant from time to time.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Janus uses measures of performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP in the United States. Non-GAAP financial performance measures are used to supplement the financial information presented on a GAAP basis. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a GAAP basis. This section also provides a discussion of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Free Cash Flow and Debt Leverage Ratio, which are non-GAAP financial measures that the Company uses to assess liquidity and capital allocation and deployment.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used by Janus to evaluate its operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources. EBITDA is earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”).
Janus presents Adjusted EBITDA which is a non-GAAP financial performance measure, which excludes from reported GAAP results, the impact of items consisting of restructuring, acquisition related activities, impairment and loss on extinguishment and modification of debt, and other non-recurring charges. Janus believes such items are not indicative of normal, ongoing operations, and their inclusion in results makes for more difficult comparisons between years and with peer group companies.
Accordingly, Janus believes these measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating Janus’s operating results in the same manner as its management and board of directors. In addition, they provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of Janus’s business, as they remove the effect of certain non-cash items and certain variable charges. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding interest expense, income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization, and acquisition related and other non-recurring items.
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA rather than net income, which is the nearest GAAP equivalent of Adjusted EBITDA. These limitations include that the non-GAAP financial measures:
•exclude depreciation and amortization, and although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated may be replaced in the future;
•do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest on debt, which reduces cash available;
•do not reflect the provision for or benefit from income tax that may result in payments that reduce cash available;
•exclude non-recurring items which are unlikely to occur again and have not occurred before (e.g., the extinguishment of debt); and
•may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, because the expenses and other acquisition related and other non-recurring items that Janus excludes in the calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the expenses and acquisition related and other non-recurring items, if any, that other companies may exclude from these non-GAAP financial measures when they report their operating results.
Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income
Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income attributable to shareholders, which excludes from reported GAAP results, the impact of certain items consisting of restructuring charges, acquisition related activities, and other non-recurring charges. Similar to Adjusted EBITDA, such expenses, charges, and gains are excluded since they are not indicative of Janus’s normal, ongoing operations, and their inclusion in results makes for more difficult comparisons between years and with peer group companies.
We use Adjusted Net Income to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period that, when viewed in combination with our results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than does U.S. GAAP measures alone. Adjusted net income should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Free Cash Flow
The Company uses a measure of free cash flow to facilitate an understanding of its ability to generate cash for reinvestment into its businesses. We define “Free Cash Flow” as cash flow from operating activities, less cash used in purchases of property, plant and equipment. Free Cash Flow is not intended as an alternative measure of cash flow from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP in the United States. We use this financial measure both in presenting results to shareholders and the investment community and in our internal evaluation and management of our businesses. We believe that this financial measure and the information it provides are useful to investors because it permits investors to view our performance using the same tool that we use to gauge progress in achieving our goals. We believe that the non-GAAP financial measure “Free Cash Flow” is also useful to investors because it is an indication of cash flow that may be available to fund investments in future growth initiatives. Free cash flow should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following table presents a reconciliation of cash flows provided by operating activities to free cash flow for the periods indicated:

Net Leverage Ratio
The Company uses the net leverage ratio as a metric to assess liquidity and the flexibility of its balance sheet. Consistent with other liquidity metrics, the Company monitors the net leverage ratio as a measure to determine the appropriate level of debt the Company believes is optimal to operate its business, and accordingly, to quantify debt capacity available for strengthening the balance sheet for strategic capital allocation and deployment through investments in the business, and for returning capital to the shareholders. The net leverage ratio is the ratio of our consolidated senior secured indebtedness reduced by cash to our trailing four-quarter consolidated EBITDA.

Credit Ratings
Costs of borrowing and their respective ability to access the capital markets are affected not only by market conditions but also by the short-term and long-term credit ratings assigned to our respective debt by the major credit rating agencies.
In determining our credit ratings, the rating agencies consider a number of quantitative factors, including but not limited to, debt to total capitalization, operating cash flow relative to outstanding debt, and operating cash flow coverage of interest. In addition, the rating agencies consider qualitative factors such as consistency of our earnings over time, and the quality of our management and business strategy.
Our debt is rated by two rating agencies: Standard & Poor’s Corporation (S&P) and Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s). As of September 28, 2024, our outlook and current debt ratings are as follows:
| S&P | Moody’s | ||||||||||
| Corporate | B+ | Ba3 | |||||||||
Senior secured long-term debt(1) | BB- | Ba3 | |||||||||
| Outlook | Positive | Positive | |||||||||
(1) A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities. Our credit ratings may be revised or withdrawn at any time by the rating agencies, and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. There can be no assurance that a rating will remain in effect for any given period of time or that a rating will not be lowered, or withdrawn entirely, by a rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant.
Contractual Obligations
Summarized below are our contractual obligations as of September 28, 2024 and their expected impact on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods (dollar amounts in millions):

Debt obligations are presented for the principal balance and include the First Lien Term Loan payments. The First Lien Term Loan has a maturity date of August 3, 2030. (See Note 9, Long-Term Debt, to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for a further discussion).
Finance lease obligations include future payments related to finance leases. Operating lease obligations consist of future payments related to operating lease liabilities for real and personal property leases with various lease expiration dates. The amount included in the “Thereafter” column is primarily comprised of thirteen real property leases with expiration dates ranging from 2029 – 2036. Finance and operating lease obligations are presented net of imputed interest. (See Note 10, Leases, to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for a further a discussion of future lease payments).
The table above does not include warranty liabilities because it is not certain when these liabilities will be funded and because they are considered immaterial.
In addition to the contractual obligations and commitments listed and described above, the Company also had another commitment for which it is contingently liable as of September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023 consisting of an outstanding letter of credit of $0.4.
Critical Accounting Estimates
For the critical accounting estimates used in preparing Janus’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Janus makes assumptions, judgments and estimates that can have a significant impact on its revenue, results from operations, and net income, as well as on the value of certain assets and liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets. Janus bases its assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that Janus believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company’s critical accounting estimates requiring significant judgment that could materially impact the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2023. Since the date of the Company’s most recent Annual Report, there have been no material changes in the Company’s critical accounting estimates or assumptions.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes in exposures to market risk since December 30, 2023. For information regarding our exposure to certain market risks, see Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2023.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the participation of certain members of management (collectively “the management team”) evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 28, 2024, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits 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. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow their timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 28, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, as specified above. Our management recognizes that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain judgments and assumptions, and cannot provide absolute assurance that its objectives will be met. Management continues to refine and assess its overall control environment.
