Key Highlights
Third Quarter 2015 Highlights
• Sales increase of 21.2% was primarily due to the Simonton and
Canyon Stone acquisitions and growth within the U.S. businesses in
each segment. The growth in the U.S. was partially offset by weaker
market conditions in Canada and unfavorable foreign currency
exchange rates which negatively impacted sales by $11.4.
• Gross margin expansion of 290 basis points primarily driven by
increased average selling prices in both of our business segments,
favorable freight costs, and favorable commodity costs, partially
offset by unfavorable foreign currency impact from a weakening
Canadian dollar.
• Sixth consecutive year-over-year quarterly adjusted EBITDA
improvement. Excluding acquisitions, incremental year-over-year
quarterly adjusted EBITDA growth of 18.5%.

End Market Exposure (*)
• 42.6% increase in sales due largely to the Simonton acquisition which
accounted for $81.9 of the sales growth. Excluding Simonton, sales for the
U.S. business increased 12.6% due to higher average selling prices,
improved product mix, and improvement in U.S. market conditions.
Growth in the U.S. was partially offset by weaker market conditions in
Western Canada and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates which
negatively impacted sales by $5.9.
• Gross margin improved by 530 basis points driven by $23.7 of Simonton
gross margin and a 200 basis point gross margin improvement in our legacy
windows businesses due to improved pricing, and product mix partially
offset by unfavorable foreign currency.
• SG&A expense increase includes $16.2 of expense attributable to Simonton.
Excluding Simonton, SG&A expense as a percent of net sales decreased
from 12.3% to 9.7%. Reduction of legal expenses accounted for 170 basis
points of the decrease. The remainder relates to reductions in one-time
restructuring and integration costs in Western Canada, and expense
reduction initiatives in response to lower market demand in Western
Canada.

• 4.4% increase in sales due largely to the Canyon Stone acquisition which
accounted for $7.8 of the sales growth. Excluding Canyon Stone, sales
for the U.S. business increased 4.2% due to favorable market demand
and higher selling prices for our products. Growth in the U.S. was
partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates which
negatively impacted sales by $5.5.
• Gross margin expanded by 220 basis points, driven by improved
operating leverage from the sales increase, improved selling prices,
favorable material cost pricing, and favorable freight expense, partially
offset by unfavorable foreign currency.
• SG&A expense increased $2.4 which was due largely to the Canyon
Stone acquisition which accounted for $1.3 of the SG&A expense
increase. Excluding Canyon Stone, SG&A expense as a percent of sales
increased from 8.4% to 8.7% which was mainly due to increased
incentive compensation.

estimated annual savings of approximately $10.0 when fully implemented in 2016
 S&OP system provides enhanced capacity and resource planning system which will
reduce future ramp-up costs and maximize fixed manufacturing investments

4Q 2015 Guidance
 Based on the forecasted growth of the U.S. housing market and R&R spend, the
impact of our enacted selling price increases and other margin enhancing
initiatives, the expected impact of Canyon Stone, anticipated acquisition
synergies, commodity fluctuations and a normalized weather pattern, we expect
our adjusted EBITDA for 4Q 2015, in the range of $32.0 to $37.0
Economic Outlook & Guidance
Expect Continued Steady Growth in U.S. Housing Starts
 Expect continued overall moderate growth of high single digits in U.S. housing
recovery in 2015, however we expect the market to experience periods of
choppiness in the growth rate
 Expect an overall moderate growth rate for big ticket R&R spend of
approximately 2% to 3% in 2015
 Overall Canadian housing starts expected to moderate relative to 2014 with
lower starts in oil-producing regions of Western Canada partially offset by
higher starts in other regions
