1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
On June 30, 2015 (the “Effective Date”), Masco Corporation (“Masco” or the “Former Parent”) completed the separation (the “Separation”) of its Installation and Other Services businesses (the “Services Business”) from its other businesses. On the Effective Date, TopBuild Corp., a Delaware corporation formed in anticipation of the Separation (“TopBuild” or the “Company”), became an independent public company which holds, through its subsidiaries, the assets and liabilities associated with the Services Business. The Separation was achieved through the distribution of 100 percent of the outstanding capital stock of TopBuild to holders of Masco common stock. References to “TopBuild,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to TopBuild Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
These condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Prior to the Separation, the consolidated financial statements of TopBuild were prepared on a stand-alone basis and reflect the historical results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of Masco’s Services Business, including an allocable portion of corporate costs.
We report our business in two segments: Installation and Distribution. Our Installation segment principally includes the sale and installation of insulation and other building products. Our Distribution segment principally includes the distribution of insulation and other building products. Our segments are based on our operating units, for which financial information is regularly evaluated by our corporate operating executives.
In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to state fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2016, our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2015, was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Financial Statement Presentation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been developed in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Our financial statements for the periods prior to the Separation have been derived from the financial statements and accounting records of Masco using the historical results of operations and historical basis of assets and liabilities of the Services Business, and reflect Masco’s net investment in the Services Business.
All intercompany transactions between TopBuild entities have been eliminated. Transactions between TopBuild and Masco prior to the Separation, with the exception of purchase transactions, are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as a financing activity in “Net transfer from Former Parent” and in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity in the column, “Former Parent Investment.”
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to the Separation include allocations of general corporate expenses incurred by Masco for functions such as corporate human resources, finance, and legal, including salaries, benefits, and other related costs. These general corporate expenses were allocated to TopBuild on the basis of sales. Total allocated general corporate costs were $5.7 million and $13.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. These costs were included in selling, general, and administrative expenses.
Prior to the Separation, Masco incurred certain operating expenses on behalf of the Services Business that were allocated to TopBuild based on direct
benefit or usage. These allocated operating expenses were $1.2 million and $5.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.
These costs were included in selling, general, and administrative expenses. An estimate of these operating expenses was allocated to each of TopBuild’s reporting segments based on a percentage of sales.
For periods prior to the Separation, t
hese condensed consolidated financial statements may not reflect the actual expenses that would have been incurred had we operated as a stand-alone company and may not reflect the consolidated results of operations,
financial position, and cash flows had we operated as a stand-alone company. Actual costs that would have been incurred if we had operated as a stand-alone company prior to the Separation would have depended on multiple factors, including organizational structure and strategic decisions made in various areas, including, without limitation, information technology and infrastructure.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, we identified an error related primarily to the misallocation of a favorable legal settlement to general corporate expenses of TopBuild in the fourth quarter of 2014. The impact of the error was to understate the allocation of corporate expenses reported as selling, general, and administrative expense and overstate operating profit by $1.9 million. The error was not considered material to the previously reported 2014 financial statements. The Company recorded the correction of the error by an out-of-period adjustment in the first quarter of 2015, which is therefore reflected in the six months ended June 30, 2015, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Share-based Compensation.
Our share-based compensation program currently consists of restricted share awards (“RSAs”) and stock option awards (“Options”). Share-based compensation is reported in selling, general, and administrative expense.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new standard for revenue recognition, Accounting Standards Codification 606 (“ASC 606”). The purpose of ASC 606 is to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers to improve comparability across industries. ASC 606 is effective for us for annual periods beginning January 1, 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on our results of operations.
In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-11 (“ASU 2015-11”) “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” Under the amendment, ASU 2015-11, inventory should be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted; however, we do not anticipate adopting this standard until the first quarter of 2017. We do not anticipate the adoption of this amendment will have a material impact on
our financial position or results of operations
.
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 (“ASU 2016-02”), “Leases.” This standard requires a lessee to recognize most leases on their balance sheet. Companies are required to use a modified retrospective transition method for all existing leases. This standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. We have not yet selected an adoption date and we are currently evaluating the effect on our financial position and results of operations.
In March 2016,
the FASB issued
Accounting Standards Update
2016-09 (“ASU 2016-09”), “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This update is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. Under this guidance, an entity recognizes all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, which will require us to adopt these provisions in the first quarter of 2017. Early adoption is permitted.
We have not yet selected an adoption date and we are currently determining the effect on our financial position and results of operations.

8. OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
. We are subject to claims, charges, litigation, and other proceedings in the ordinary course of our business, including those arising from or related to contractual matters, intellectual property, personal injury, environmental matters, product liability, product recalls, construction defects, insurance coverage, personnel and employment disputes, antitrust, and other matters, including class actions. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters and that the likelihood the outcome of these matters would have a material adverse effect on us is remote. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in these matters, and we could in the future incur judgments, enter into settlements of claims, or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our results of operations.
Other Matters
. We enter into contracts, which include customary indemnifications that are standard for the industries in which we operate. Such indemnifications include customer claims against builders for issues relating to our products and workmanship. In conjunction with divestitures and other transactions, we occasionally provide customary indemnifications relating to various items including: the enforceability of trademarks; legal and environmental issues; and asset valuations. We evaluate the probability that amounts may be incurred and appropriately record an estimated liability when deemed probable.
We occasionally use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span multiple accounting periods. Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. Other types of bonds outstanding were principally license and insurance related.
9. INCOME TAXES
Our effective tax rates were 38.7 percent and 38.8 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, were 20.4 percent and 29.8 percent, respectively. The lower rate in 2015 was primarily due to decreases in our valuation allowance resulting from a partial use of our Federal net operating loss carryforward by Masco.
For 2015 activity through the Separation, we filed our tax returns as a member of the Masco consolidated group for U.S. Federal and certain State jurisdictions. As a result, certain tax attributes, primarily the Federal and State net operating loss carryforwards, were treated as assets of the Masco
consolidated
group, which they were able to utilize through December 31, 2015. Masco fully utilized the Federal net operating loss and certain State net operating losses by the end of 2015.
In the fourth quarter of 2015, we released all but $0.8 million of our valuation allowance against U.S. Federal and certain state deferred tax assets, due primarily to a return to sustainable operating profitability.
10. INCOME (LOSS) PER SHAR
E
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents.
Diluted net income per share is calculated by adjusting weighted average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period, determined using the treasury stock method.
For comparative purposes, the computation of basic and diluted income per common share for prior year periods presented was calculated using the shares distributed at Separation. On June 30, 2015, we distributed 37.7 million shares of our common stock to Masco stockholders in conjunction with the Separation.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
TopBuild Corp., headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida, is the leading purchaser, installer, and distributor of insulation products to the United States construction industry, based on revenue. Prior to June 30, 2015, we operated as a subsidiary of Masco Corporation. We were incorporated in Delaware in February 2015 as Masco SpinCo Corp. and we changed our name to TopBuild Corp. on March 20, 2015. On June 30, 2015, the separation from Masco (the “Separation”) was completed and on July 1, 2015, we began trading on the NYSE under the symbol “BLD.”
We operate in two segments: Installation (TruTeam) and Distribution (Service Partners). Through our Installation segment, we provide insulation installation services nationwide through our TruTeam contractor services business which has over 175 branches located in 42 states. We install various insulation applications, including fiberglass batts and rolls, blown-in loose fill fiberglass, blown-in loose fill cellulose, and polyurethane spray foam. Additionally, we install other building products, including rain gutters, garage doors, fireplaces, shower enclosures, and closet shelving. We handle every stage of the installation process, including material procurement supplied by leading manufacturers, project scheduling and logistics, multi-phase professional installation, and installation quality assurance.
Through our Distribution segment, we distribute insulation and other building products, including rain gutters, fireplaces, closet shelving, and roofing materials through our Service Partners business, which has over 70 branches in 33 states. Our Service Partners customer base consists of thousands of insulation contractors of all sizes, gutter contractors, weatherization contractors, other contractors, dealers, metal building erectors, and modular home builders.
For additional details pertaining to our operating results by segment see Note 7 – Segment Information – in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.

We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States. However, we believe that certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios used in managing the business may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior periods. Non-GAAP performance measures and ratios should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our financial results reported in accordance with GAAP.
Sales and Operations
Net sales increased 6.9 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2016, from the comparable period of 2015. The increase was principally driven by sales volume growth in both the Installation and Distribution segments. Our sales benefited primarily from the overall continued improvement in the housing market, as well as continued focus on organically growing our residential and commercial activity. Net sales also benefited from increased selling prices for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year.
Net sales increased 10.9 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2016, from the comparable period of 2015. The increase was principally driven by sales volume growth in both the Installation and Distribution segments. Our sales benefited primarily from the overall continued improvement in the housing market, as well as continued focus on organically growing our residential and commercial activity, mild winter weather conditions, and one additional business day for the six month period ending June 30, 2016, compared with the same period in the prior year. Net sales also benefited from increased selling prices for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year.
Our gross profit margin was 22.6 percent and 21.2 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Gross profit margin was positively impacted by favorable leverage on higher sales volume and increased selling prices, partially offset by higher insurance claims.
Our gross profit margin was 22.1 percent and 20.9 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Gross profit margin was positively impacted by favorable leverage on higher sales volume and increased selling prices, partially offset by higher insurance claims.
Selling,
general,
and administrative expense, as a percent of sales, was
16.4
percent
and 18.4 percent
for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Reduced selling, general, and administrative expense as a percent of sales was a result of lower corporate expenses, increased sales volume, benefits associated with cost savings initiatives, and lower rationalization charges related to our spin-off from Masco, partially offset by higher share-based compensation expense. Selling, general, and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015, included allocations of Masco general corporate expenses of $5.7 million.
Selling,
general,

Reduced selling, general, and administrative expense as a percent of sales was a result of lower corporate expenses, increased sales volume, benefits associated with cost savings initiatives, and lower rationalization charges related to our spin-off from Masco, partially offset by higher share-based compensation expense and closure costs discussed below. Selling, general, and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015, included allocations of Masco general corporate expenses of $13.6 million.
Operating margins were

Changes in operating margins were positively impacted by increased sales volume, increased selling prices, lower corporate expenses, and benefits associated with cost savings initiatives, partially offset by higher insurance claims, share-based compensation expense, and closure costs discussed below.
Closure and Related Costs
We incurred expense of $1.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016, related to the closure of 13 locations within our Installation and Distribution segments and the elimination of certain positions at our corporate headquarters. We anticipate recovering these costs within the next nine months.

Installation
Sales
Sales in the Installation segment increased $22.7 million, or
8.6
percent, for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same period in 2015. The increase in sales was primarily due to increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction and an increased sales volume of commercial installation. Sales also increased 3.7 percent due to increased selling prices.
Sales in the Installation segment increased $62.3 million, or
12.5 percent,
for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same period in 2015. The increase in sales was primarily due to increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction and commercial activity, mild winter weather conditions, as well as one additional business day during the six months ended June 30, 2016. Sales also increased 3.4 percent due to increased selling prices.
Operating results
Operating margins in the Installation segment were
7.9
percent and 2.7 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Operating margins were positively impacted by increased sales volume, higher selling prices, and related absorption of fixed costs, as well as the benefits associated with cost savings initiatives, and lower corporate expenses which were allocated to the segments based on direct benefit or usage, partially offset by higher insurance claims, increased legal expense, and increased bonus expense.
Operating margins in the Installation segment were
6.5
percent and 1.2 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Operating margins were positively impacted by increased sales volume, higher selling prices, and related absorption of fixed costs, as well as the benefits associated with cost savings initiatives, lower corporate expenses which were allocated to the segments based on direct benefit or usage, and lower professional fees incurred related to the spin-off in the prior year, partially offset by higher insurance claims and current rationalization charges related to the closure costs noted above.
Distribution
Sales
Sales in the Distribution segment increased $3.4 million, or
2.1
percent, for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same period in 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction. Sales were partially offset by a
2.2
percent decrease in selling prices.
Sales in the Distribution segment increased $19.7 million, or
6.4 percent,
for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same period in 2015. The increase in sales was primarily due to an increase in sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction, mild winter weather conditions, and one additional business day during the six months ended June 30, 2016. Sales were partially offset by a 2.0 percent decrease in selling prices.
Operating results
Operating margins in the Distribution segment were
8.2
percent and 7.4 percent for
the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015
, respectively. Operating margins were positively impacted by increased volume and related absorption of fixed costs, lower corporate expenses which were allocated to the segments based on direct benefit or usage, and benefits associated with cost savings initiatives, partially offset by a decrease in selling prices.
Operating margins in the Distribution segment were
8.6

Operating margins were positively impacted by increased volume and related absorption of fixed costs, lower corporate expenses which were allocated to the segments based on direct benefit or usage, as well as benefits associated with cost savings initiatives, partially offset by a decrease in selling prices.
OTHER ITEMS
Other expense, net
Other expense net, which primarily consisted of interest expense, was $1.3 million and $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Other expense net, which primarily consisted of interest expense, was $2.9 million and $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
For both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, prior to the Separation, interest expense was allocated to us by Masco; as such, this expense is not indicative of our future interest expense.
Utilizing our current interest rate of
1.95
percent as of June 30, 2016, our expected interest expense, including the amortization of debt issuance costs, is estimated to be $
2.0
million for the remaining six months of 2016.
Income tax expense from continuing operations
Income tax expense from continuing operations was $
9.9
million, an effective tax rate (“ETR”) of
38.7
percent, for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $1.7 million, an ETR of 20.4 percent, for the comparable period in 2015. The lower 2015 rate was primarily due to the decrease in our valuation allowance resulting from the partial use of the Federal net operating loss carryforward by Masco.
Income tax expense from continuing operations was $
16.9
million, an ETR of
38.8
percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $1.2 million, an ETR of 29.8 percent, for the comparable period in 2015.
The lower 2015 rate was primarily due to the decrease in our valuation allowance resulting from the partial use of the Federal net operating loss carryforward by Masco.

As of as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, our working capital was 8.4 percent and 8.3 percent of net sales for the trailing twelve months, respectively. Working capital increased $14.2 million to $143.2 million at June 30, 2016, compared to June 30, 2015. The marginal increase in working capital as a percentage of net sales for the trailing 12 months ended June 30, 2016, compared to June 30, 2015, was due primarily to slightly accelerated supplier payment terms reducing accounts payable levels, offset by lower levels of net receivables and net inventory relative to the trailing 12 months net sales.
Net cash flows generated from (used for) operating activities were $6.1 million and $(9.0) million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase was due primarily to improved net income for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with the same period in 2015. Further benefiting net cash flows generated from operating activities was improved management of inventory purchases driven by higher sales levels during the six months ended June 30, 2016, relative to June 30, 2015. Accrued liabilities also increased for the six months ended June 30, 2016, relative to June 30, 2015, primarily related to additional days of accrued payroll for the comparative periods, increased state income taxes payable related to our increased profitability for the comparative periods, and an increase in our group health insurance reserve based on our year-to-date claims experience compared with the prior year period. These changes were partially offset by a larger decrease in our accounts payable for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same period for 2015, due to the satisfaction of payables related to strategic inventory purchases in the fourth quarter of 2015 and a nominal change to payment terms for select suppliers w
hich accelerated payments.
Net cash used for investing activities was $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, primarily comprised of $6.0 million in purchases of property and equipment, partially offset by $0.2 million of proceeds from sale of property and equipment. Net cash used for investing activities was $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, primarily comprised of $7.1 million in purchases of property and equipment, partially offset by $0.4 million of proceeds from sale of property and equipment.
Net cash used for financing activities was $11.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, primarily comprised of $5.0 million of repayments of our long-term debt, $5.0 million of
repurchases of our common stock related to our $50 million share repurchase program announced in March 2016, and $1.3 million of purchases of common stock for tax withholding obligations related to the vesting of restricted share awards during the six months ended June 30, 2016. Net cash from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015, was $75.5 million, comprised of a $77.2 million transfer from Masco, partially offset by a $1.7 million payment of debt issuance costs. Financing activities for this period in 2015 also included $200 million proceeds from the issuance of long term debt fully offset by a $200 million distribution to Masco in conjunction with the Separation.
Prior to the Separation, we largely funded our growth through cash provided by our operations, combined with support from Masco, through its operating cash flows, its long-term debt, and its issuance of securities in the financial markets.
In June 2015, we entered into the Credit Agreement with a bank group. The Credit Agreement consists of a senior secured term loan facility of $200 million, which was used to finance a $200 million cash distribution to Masco in connection with the Separation, and a senior secured revolving credit facility which provides for borrowing and/or standby letter of credit issuances of up to $125 million. Additional borrowing capacity under the credit facility may be accessed by the Company without the consent of the lenders in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100 million, subject to certain conditions.
Following the Separation, we have access to liquidity through our cash from operations and available borrowing capacity under our Credit
Agreement. We believe that our cash flows from operations, combined with our current cash levels and available borrowing capacity, will be adequate to support our ongoing operations and to fund our debt service requirements, capital expenditures, and working capital for at least the next 12 months. Cash flows are seasonally stronger in the third and fourth quarters as a result of increased new construction activity.

We occasionally use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span multiple accounting periods. Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. We also have bonds outstanding for licensing and insurance. The following table summarizes our outstanding bonds, in thousands:

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us 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 sales, costs, and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our critical accounting policies have not changed materially from those previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 2015, as filed with the SEC on March 3, 2016.
APPLICATION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Information regarding application of new accounting standards is incorporated by reference from Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this report that reflect our views about our future performance constitute “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “will,” “would,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” or “intend,” the negative of these terms, and similar references to future periods. These views involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in our forward-looking statements. We caution you against unduly relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Our future performance may be affected by our reliance on residential new construction, residential repair/remodel, and commercial construction; our reliance on third-party suppliers and manufacturers; our ability to attract, develop and retain talented personnel and our sales and labor force; our ability to maintain consistent practices across our locations; our ability to maintain our competitive position; and our ability to realize the expected benefits of the Separation. We discuss the material risks we face under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC. Our forward-looking statements in this filing speak only as of the date of this filing. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
Prior to the Separation, we participated in Masco’s centralized cash management program and were funded through an intercompany loan arrangement whereby Masco provided daily liquidity, as needed, to fund our operations. As a result of this intercompany funding arrangement, prior to the Separation, we had no external indebtedness that exposed us to interest rate risk. Our historical financial statements include standby letter of credit costs, as Masco allocated these costs to TopBuild in related party interest expense allocations.
Our Credit Agreement became effective on June 30, 2015. The Credit Agreement consists of a senior secured term loan facility in the amount of $200 million and a senior secured revolving facility in the amount of $125 million.
Interest payable on both the term loan facility and revolving facility is based on a variable interest rate. As a result, we are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our outstanding indebtedness. Based on the current interest rate of 1.95 percent under the senior secured term loan facility, a 100 basis point increase in the interest rate would result in a
$1.8
million increase in our annualized interest expense. There was no outstanding balance under the revolving facility as of June 30, 2016.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, based on an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we did not make any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We continue to review and document our internal controls over financial reporting and may, from time to time, make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness.
