Comprehensive Income The Company's comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, as required to be reported by FASB Statement No. 130, was identical to the actual losses reported for those periods. 12 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview The Company. ABC is the largest wholesale distributor of roofing products and one of the largest wholesale distributors of vinyl siding materials in the United States, operating 200 distribution centers located in 42 states as of March 31, 2001. Since January 1, 2001, the Company has not opened or closed any distribution centers. Provision for Income Taxes. ABC and its subsidiaries are operated as Subchapter S corporations under the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, these entities do not incur federal and state income taxes (except with respect to certain states) and, accordingly, no discussion of income taxes is included in "Results of Operations" below. Federal and state income taxes (except with respect to certain states) on the income of such corporations are incurred and paid directly by the Company's sole stockholder. Such corporations have historically made periodic distributions to the stockholder with respect to such tax liabilities. The Company entered into the Tax Allocation Agreement with the sole stockholder, pursuant to which he will receive distributions from the Company with respect to taxes associated with the Company's income. Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of the Company's management as well as on assumptions made by and information currently available to the Company at the time such statements were made. When used in this MD&A, the words "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intends" and similar expressions, as they relate to the Company are intended to identify forward- looking statements, which include statements relating to, among other things: (i) the ability of the Company to continue to successfully compete in the roofing and vinyl siding products market; (ii) the anticipated benefits from its comprehensive evaluation of new operating and administrative processes (iii) the continued effectiveness of the Company's sales and marketing strategy; and (iv) the ability of the Company to continue to successfully develop and launch new distribution centers. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of the matters discussed herein and certain economic and business factors, some of which may be beyond the control of the Company. Results of Operations The following table summarizes the Company's historical results of operations as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000:

13 Comparison of the Three-Month Period Ended March 31, 2001 to the Three-Month Period Ended March 31, 2000 The Company's results of operations are affected by the seasonal nature of the roofing and siding business. See "Seasonality." Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2001 increased by 2.2% to $247.5 million from $242.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Comparable distribution centers sales growth was 1.3%. Increases in comparable distribution center sales are due primarily to increases in volume. Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2001 increased by 2.0%, to $59.6 million from $58.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, primarily as a result of profits associated with increased sales. Gross profit, as a percent of net sales, was 24.1% for both the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Distribution center operating expenses increased by $1.4 million to $54.8 million from $53.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. As a percent of net sales, distribution center operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, increased to 22.1% in 2001 from 22.0% in 2000. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, decreased by $1.4 million to $5.2 million in 2001 from $6.6 million in 2000. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 2.1% in 2001 from 2.7% in 2000. A large portion of the expense in 2000 was due to professional fees incurred in connection with management's evaluation of the Company's operating procedures, as well as its needs for a next generation of computer system. Operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2001 decreased by $1.1 million to a loss of $0.9 million from a $2.0 million loss for the same period in 2000 as a result of the factors discussed above. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2001 decreased by $0.3 million or 4.7% to $5.7 million from $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The decrease is primarily due to decreased rates on the Company's LIBOR and prime rate borrowings, as well as a reduction in the Company's borrowing levels. Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $26.5 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The increase was due primarily to a reduction of the Company's inventory levels from 2000, when the Company purchased inventory in advance of anticipated price increases from major vendors. Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities decreased to $1.4 million from $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, due to reduced additions to property and equipment offset by a reduction in proceeds from disposals of property and equipment. Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $(26.9) million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, due primarily to the net payments made under the line of credit. Liquidity. The Company's principal sources of funds are anticipated to be cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under its revolving credit agreement. The Company believes that these funds will provide the Company with sufficient liquidity and capital resources for the Company to meet its financial obligations, as well as to provide funds for the Company's working capital, capital expenditures, and other needs for the foreseeable future. No assurances can be given, however, that this will be the case. 14 Seasonality Because of cold weather conditions in many of the markets in which the Company does business and the seasonal nature of the roofing and siding business generally, the Company's revenues vary substantially throughout the year, with its lowest revenues typically occurring in the months of December through February. 15 Part II.
