Standard & Poors, May 2011
Abstract
Increased cash on hand following its equity rights offering in 2010; Minimal debt maturities in the upcoming 12 months; and No significant customer concentration risk. Highly constrained borrowing availability under its asset-based revolving credit facility; Potential for significant liquidity deficits beyond 2011; Profitability susceptible to volatile lumber and raw materials costs; Narrow end-market focus and geographic scope; and Significant exposure to highly cyclical residential new housing markets.
