The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with our annual consolidated financial
statements and related notes and our discussion and analysis of financial
condition and results of operations, which were included in our 2020 Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
December 4, 2020, or our 2020 Form 10-K, as well as Item 1. Financial Statements
in this Form 10-Q.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. All
statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding future operations, expansion
plans, capital investments, capacity targets and other strategic initiatives,
are forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward looking statements may be
identified by words such as "believe," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue,"
"anticipate," "intend," "could," "would," "expect," "objective," "plan,"
"potential," "seek," "grow," "target," "if," or the negative of these terms and
similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. In
particular, statements about potential new products and product innovation,
statements regarding the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, statements
about the markets in which we operate and the economy more generally, including
growth of our various markets and growth in the use of engineered products as
well as our ability to share in such growth, statements about our ability to
source our raw materials in line with our expectations, future pricing for our
products or our raw materials and our ability to successfully manage market risk
and control or reduce costs, statements with respect to our ability to meet
future goals and targets, including our environmental, social and governance
targets, and our expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives,
prospects, assumptions or future events or performance contained in the
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. We have based
these forward-looking statements primarily on our current expectations and
projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our
financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and
long-term business operations and objectives and financial needs. These
forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and
assumptions, including those described in the section titled "Risk Factors" set
forth in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other
SEC filings, including the 2020 Form 10-K. Moreover, we operate in a very
competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to
time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we
assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any
factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially
from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of
these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the future events and trends
discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur and actual results
may differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the
forward-looking statements. You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity,
performance and events and circumstances may be materially different from what
we expect. In addition, statements that "we believe" and similar statements
reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are
based on information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q. While we believe that such information provides a reasonable basis
for these statements, such information may be limited or incomplete. Our
statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive
inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are
inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these
statements.

Overview

The AZEK Company Inc. (the "Company," "we," "us" or "our") is an
industry-leading designer and manufacturer of beautiful, low-maintenance and
environmentally sustainable products focused on the highly attractive,
fast-growing Outdoor Living market. We define the Outdoor Living market as the
market for decks, rail, trim, wood and wood-look siding, porches, pavers,
outdoor furniture, outdoor cabinetry and outdoor lighting designed to enhance
the utility and improve the aesthetics of outdoor living spaces. Homeowners are
continuing to invest in their outdoor spaces and are increasingly recognizing
the significant advantages of long-lasting products, which are converting demand
away from traditional materials, particularly wood. Our products transform those
outdoor spaces by combining highly appealing aesthetics with significantly lower
maintenance costs compared to traditional materials. Our innovative portfolio of
Outdoor Living products, including deck, rail, trim and accessories, inspires
consumers to design outdoor spaces tailored to their unique lifestyle needs. We
are well known in the industry, and, according to data provided by Principia
Consulting, LLC, a third-party industry research and consulting firm, we
generally hold one of the top two market share positions by revenue in our
product categories. In addition to our leading suite of Outdoor Living products,
we sell a broad range of highly engineered products that are sold in commercial
markets, including partitions, lockers and storage solutions. One of our core
values is to "always do the right thing". We make decisions according to what is
right, not what is the cheapest, fastest or easiest, and we strive to always
operate with integrity, transparency and the customer in mind. In furtherance of
that value, we are focused on sustainability across our operations and have
adopted strategies to enable us to meet the growing demand for
environmentally-friendly products. Our businesses leverage a shared technology
and U.S.-based manufacturing platform to create products that convert demand
from

                                       25

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

traditional materials to those that are long lasting and low maintenance, fulfilling our brand commitment to deliver products that are "Beautifully Engineered to Last".



We report our results in two segments: Residential and Commercial. In our
Residential segment, our primary consumer brands, TimberTech and AZEK, are
recognized by contractors and consumers for their premium aesthetics,
uncompromising quality and performance, and diversity of style and design
options. In our Commercial segment, we manufacture engineered sheet products and
high-quality bathroom partitions and lockers. Over our history we have developed
a reputation as a leading innovator in our markets by leveraging our
differentiated manufacturing capabilities, material science expertise and
product management proficiency to consistently introduce new products into the
market. This long-standing commitment has been critical to our ability to stay
at the forefront of evolving industry trends and consumer demands, which in turn
has allowed us to become a market leader across our core product categories.

COVID-19 Update



Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been focused on protecting our
employees' health and safety, meeting our customers' needs as they navigate an
uncertain financial and operating environment, working closely with our
suppliers to protect our ongoing business operations and rapidly adjusting our
short-, medium and long-term operational plans to proactively and effectively
respond to the current and potential future public health crises. While the
COVID-19 pandemic has presented and continues to present very serious concerns
for our business and operations, our employees and their families, our customers
and our suppliers, we believe that we have adapted and are continuing to adapt
well to the wide-ranging changes to the global economy, and we remain confident
that we will continue to maintain business continuity, produce and sell our
products safely and in compliance with applicable laws and governmental orders
and mandates, maintain our robust and flexible supply chains and be in a strong
position to maintain financial flexibility even in the event of a potentially
extended economic downturn.

Although we have implemented measures to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19
pandemic on our business, financial condition and results of operations, we
expect that these measures may not fully mitigate the impact of the COVID-19
pandemic on our business, financial condition and results of operations. While
governmental and other measures have been relaxed in the United States since the
onset of the pandemic, we cannot predict the degree to, or the period over,
which we will be affected by the pandemic and such measures, including any
impact of such measures being reimposed, whether as a result of increased
prevalence of COVID-19 variants or otherwise. We expect that the economic
effects of the COVID-19 pandemic will likely continue to affect demand for our
products over the balance of fiscal 2021 in ways that may be difficult to
predict. The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, and we
continue to monitor the situation closely. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues,
it may also have the effect of heightening many of the risks described in "Risk
Factors" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other SEC filings,
including the 2020 Form 10-K.

Other Recent Developments





During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, prices for certain of our raw material
costs, including costs for resin polyethylene and PVC material, which have
historically fluctuated depending on, among other things, overall market supply
and demand and general business conditions, continued to be negatively impacted
by supply chain disruptions, resulting in increases to our costs of goods sold
and disruption in supply.  In response, we have implemented a combination of
pricing increases and productivity initiatives aimed at mitigating the impact of
these events and other inflationary pressures. We expect these events will
continue to impact our cost of goods sold until these disruptions subside.  See
Item 1A. Risk Factors - "Shortages in supply, price increases or deviations in
the quality of the raw materials used to manufacture our products could
adversely affect our sales and operating results."

"N/M" indicates the variance as a percentage is not meaningful.

Net Sales



Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $103.7 million,
or 46.4%, to $327.5 million from $223.7 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2020. The increase was attributable to higher sales growth in both our
Residential and Commercial segments. Net sales for the three months ended
June 30, 2021 increased for our Residential segment by 51.2% and increased for
our Commercial segment by 16.5%, in each case as compared to the prior year.

Cost of Sales



Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $72.0
million, or 48.5%, to $220.6 million from $148.6 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to increased costs on higher sales volumes and
higher costs of raw materials and manufacturing.

Gross Profit



Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $31.7
million, or 42.3%, to $106.9 million from $75.1 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2020. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by the
strong sales results in the Residential and Commercial segment which includes
positive pricing and manufacturing productivity, partially offset by higher
costs. Gross profit as a percent of net sales decreased to 32.6% for the three
months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 33.6% for the three months ended June 30,
2020.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses



Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $5.1 million, or 7.9%,
to $70.3 million, or 21.5% of net sales, for the three months ended June 30,
2021 from $65.2 million, or 29.1% of net sales, for the three months ended
June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher personnel
costs, public company costs, professional fees and marketing expenses, partially
offset by lower stock-based compensation expense.

Other General Expenses



Other general expenses were $1.4 million during the three months ended June 30,
2021, which related primarily to our secondary offering in June of 2021 and $1.6
million during the three months ended June 30, 2020, which related to our
initial public offering in June 2020.

Interest Expense, net



Interest expense, net, decreased by $20.9 million, or 83.2%, to $4.2 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $25.1 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2020. Interest expense, net decreased primarily due to the
reduced principal amount outstanding under our Term Loan Agreement and our
formerly outstanding 2021 Senior Notes and 2025 Senior Notes, as well as a

                                       27

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

lower interest rate on our Term Loan during the three months ended June 30, 2021, when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt



Loss on extinguishment of debt decreased by $37.5 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2021 due to the extinguishment of the 2025 Senior Notes and 2021
Senior Notes in the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)



Income tax expense increased by $11.4 million to $8.8 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a $2.6 million income tax benefit for the
three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in our income tax expense was
primarily driven by our pre-tax operating earnings.

Net Income (Loss)

Net income increased by $73.9 million to $21.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $52.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, due to the factors described above.

Segment Results of Operations



We report our results in two segments: Residential and Commercial. The key
segment measures used by our chief operating decision maker in deciding how to
evaluate performance and allocate resources to each of the segments are Segment
Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin. Depending on certain
circumstances, Segment Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin may be
calculated differently, from time to time, than our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA Margin, which are further discussed under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial
Measures." Segment Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin represent
measures of segment profit reported to our chief operating decision maker for
the purpose of making decisions about allocating resources to a segment and
assessing its performance and are determined as disclosed in our Consolidated
Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
consistent with the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's,
or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC 280, Segment Reporting. We
define Segment Adjusted EBITDA as a segment's net income (loss) before income
tax (benefit) expense and by adding to or subtracting therefrom interest
expense, net, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation costs,
asset impairment and inventory revaluation costs, business transformation costs,
capital structure transaction costs, acquisition costs, initial public offering
costs and certain other costs. Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin is equal to a
segment's Segment Adjusted EBITDA divided by such segment's net sales. Corporate
expenses, which include selling, general and administrative costs related to our
corporate offices, including payroll and other professional fees, are not
included in computing Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Such corporate expenses increased
by $6.6 million to $16.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, from
$9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and increased by $15.8
million to $43.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021, from $27.8
million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $98.6 million, or 51.2%, to $291.2 million from $192.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales related to our Deck, Rail & Accessories and Exteriors businesses.

Net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $200.5 million, or 37.2%, to $739.0 million from $538.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales related to our Deck, Rail & Accessories and Exteriors businesses.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA



Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by
$20.2 million, or 32.4%, to $82.5 million from $62.3 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was mainly driven by higher sales and
manufacturing productivity, partially offset by higher raw material costs,
manufacturing costs and selling, general and administrative expenses.

$59.0 million, or 35.9%, to $223.0 million from $164.0 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was mainly driven by higher sales and
manufacturing productivity, partially offset by higher selling, general and
administrative expenses and manufacturing costs.

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $5.1 million, or
16.5%, to $36.2 million from $31.1 million for the three months ended June 30,
2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales in our Vycom
business, partially offset by decreased net sales in our Scranton Products
business.

Net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 decreased by $3.0 million, or
3.1%, to $93.8 million from $96.8 million for the nine months ended June 30,
2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower net sales in our Scranton
Products and Vycom businesses, partially offset by increased pricing.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA



Segment Adjusted EBITDA of the Commercial segment was $6.3 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $5.0 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily driven by higher sales in the Vycom
business and net manufacturing productivity.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA of the Commercial segment was $13.3 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $11.2 million for the nine months ended
June 30, 2020. The slight increase was primarily driven by net manufacturing
productivity and lower selling, general and administrative expenses, partially
offset by lower net sales as described above.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures



To supplement our Consolidated Financial Statements prepared and presented in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States,
or GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP performance financial measures, as described
below, to provide investors with additional useful information about our
financial performance, to enhance the overall understanding of our past
performance and future prospects and to allow for greater transparency with
respect to important metrics used by our management for financial and
operational decision-making. We are presenting these non-GAAP financial measures
to assist investors in seeing our financial performance from management's view
and because we believe they provide an additional tool for investors to use in
comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other
companies in our industry. Our GAAP financial results include significant
expenses that may not be indicative of our ongoing operations as detailed in the
tables below.

However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in their usefulness to
investors because they have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are
not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In
addition, non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from, and
therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by
other companies. As a result, non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as
supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, our Consolidated
Financial Statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin



We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit before depreciation and
amortization, business transformation costs and acquisition costs as described
below. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is equal to Adjusted Gross Profit divided by
net sales. We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) before
amortization, stock-based compensation costs, business transformation costs,
acquisition costs, initial public offering costs, capital structure transaction
costs and certain other costs as described below. We define Adjusted Diluted EPS
as Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average common shares
outstanding-diluted, to reflect the conversion or exercise, as applicable, of
all outstanding shares of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and
options to purchase shares of our common stock. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net
income (loss) before interest expense, net, income tax (benefit) expense and
depreciation and amortization and by adding to or subtracting therefrom items of
expense and income as described above. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is equal to
Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. We believe Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted
Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA
and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful to investors because they help identify
underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by certain
expenses that can vary from company to company depending on, among other things,
its financing, capital structure and the method by which its assets were
acquired, and can also vary significantly from period to period. We also add
back depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation because we do
not consider them indicative of our core operating performance. We believe their
exclusion facilitates comparisons of our operating performance on a
period-to-period basis. Therefore, we believe that showing gross profit and net
income, as adjusted to remove the impact of these expenses, is helpful to
investors in assessing our gross profit and net income performance in a way that
is similar to the way management assesses our performance. Additionally, EBITDA
and EBITDA margin are common measures of operating performance in our industry,
and we believe they facilitate operating comparisons. Our management also uses
Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA Margin in conjunction with other GAAP financial measures for
planning purposes, including as a measure of our core operating results and the
effectiveness of our business strategy, and in evaluating our financial
performance. Management considers Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Net Income
and Adjusted Diluted EPS as useful measures because our cost of sales includes
the depreciation of property, plant and equipment used in the production of
products and the amortization of various intangibles related to our
manufacturing processes.

Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income,
Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin have
limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation
or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of
these limitations are:

• These measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements


        for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;


                                       31

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• These measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our

working capital needs;

• Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not reflect the significant

interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest

or principal payments, on our debt;

• Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not reflect our income tax

expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;

• Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and

Adjusted EBITDA exclude the expense of depreciation, in the case of

Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted EBITDA, and amortization, in each case,

of our assets, and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being

depreciated or amortized may have to be replaced in the future;

• Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA exclude the

expense associated with our equity compensation plan, although equity

compensation has been, and will continue to be, an important part of our

compensation strategy;

• Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and

Adjusted EBITDA exclude certain business transformation costs, acquisition

costs and other costs, each of which can affect our current and future

cash requirements; and

• Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted Gross Profit,


        Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS,
        Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin differently than we do,
        limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Because of these limitations, none of these metrics should be considered indicative of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.

measures calculated in accordance with GAAP to these non-GAAP financial measures

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Outlook



Our primary cash needs are to fund working capital, capital expenditures, debt
service and any acquisitions we may undertake. As of June 30, 2021, we had cash
and cash equivalents of $220.5 million and total indebtedness of $467.7 million.
CPG International LLC, our direct, wholly owned subsidiary, had approximately
$145.6 million available under the borrowing base for future borrowings as of
June 30, 2021. CPG International LLC also has the option to increase the
commitments under the Revolving Credit

                                       34

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Facility by up to $100.0 million, subject to certain conditions. During fiscal
year 2020, we initially announced an acceleration and expansion of our capacity
investment from $100.0 million to $180.0 million. Recently we announced an
additional $50 million to $60 million of capacity investment for the fiscal year
2021 and believe we have the adequate liquidity to meet the higher level of
capacity investment in the fiscal year.

We believe we will have adequate liquidity over the next 12 months to operate
our business and to meet our cash requirements as a result of cash flows from
operating activities, available cash balances and availability under our
Revolving Credit Facility after consideration of our debt service and other cash
requirements. In the longer term, our liquidity will depend on many factors,
including our results of operations, our future growth, the timing and extent of
our expenditures to develop new products and improve our manufacturing
capabilities, the expansion of our sales and marketing activities and the extent
to which we make acquisitions. Changes in our operating plans, material changes
in anticipated sales, increased expenses, acquisitions or other events may cause
us to seek additional equity and/or debt financing in future periods.

Holding Company Status



We are a holding company and do not conduct any business operations of our own.
As a result, we are largely dependent upon cash dividends and distributions and
other transfers from our subsidiaries to meet our obligations. The agreements
governing the indebtedness of our subsidiaries impose restrictions on our
subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us.

CPG International LLC is party to the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan
Agreement, or, together, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. The obligations
under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities are secured by specified assets as
described under "Indebtedness", and the obligations under the Senior Secured
Credit Facilities are guaranteed by the Company and the wholly owned domestic
subsidiaries of CPG International LLC other than certain immaterial subsidiaries
and other excluded subsidiaries.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain covenants restricting payments of
dividends by CPG International LLC unless certain conditions, as provided in the
Senior Secured Credit Facilities, are met. The covenants under our Senior
Secured Credit Facilities provide for certain exceptions for specific types of
payments. However, other than restricted payments under the specified
exceptions, the covenants under our Term Loan Agreement generally prohibit the
payment of dividends unless the fixed charge coverage ratio of CPG International
LLC, on a pro forma basis, for the four quarters preceding the declaration or
payment of such dividend would be at least 2.00 to 1.00 and such restricted
payments do not exceed an amount based on the sum of $40.0 million plus 50% of
consolidated net income for the period commencing October 1, 2013 to the end of
the most recent fiscal quarter for which internal consolidated financial
statements of CPG International LLC are available at the time of such restricted
payment, plus certain customary addbacks. Based on the general restrictions in
our Term Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2021, CPG International LLC would have
been permitted to declare or pay dividends of up to $146.8 million, plus any
dividends for the specific purposes specified in the Senior Secured Credit
Facilities.

Since the restricted net assets of the Company and its subsidiaries exceed 25%
of our consolidated net assets, in accordance with Rule 12-04, Schedule 1 of
Regulation S-X, refer to our Consolidated Financial Statements included
elsewhere in this Form 10-Q for condensed parent company financial statements of
the Company.

Cash Sources

We have historically relied on cash flows from operations generated by CPG
International LLC, borrowings under the credit facilities, issuances of notes
and other forms of debt financing and capital contributions to fund our cash
needs.

On September 30, 2013, our subsidiary, CPG International LLC (as
successor-in-interest to CPG Merger Sub LLC, a limited liability company formed
to effect the acquisition of CPG International LLC), and the lenders party
thereto entered into the Revolving Credit Facility. On March 9, 2017, the
Revolving Credit Facility was amended and restated to provide for maximum
aggregate borrowings of up to $150.0 million, subject to an asset-based
borrowing base. The borrowing base is limited to a specified percentage of
eligible accounts receivable and inventory, less reserves that may be
established by the Revolver Administrative Agent in the exercise of its
reasonable credit judgment. As of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, CPG
International LLC had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit
Facility and had $4.4 million and $6.8 million, respectively, of outstanding
letters of credit held against the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30,
2021 and September 30, 2020, CPG International LLC had approximately
$145.6 million and $129.4 million, respectively, available under the borrowing
base for future borrowings in addition to cash and cash equivalents on hand of
$220.5 million and $215.0 million, respectively. Because our borrowing capacity
under the Revolving Credit Facility depends, in part, on inventory, accounts
receivable and other assets that fluctuate from time to time, the amount
available under the borrowing base may not reflect actual borrowing capacity
under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Cash Uses



Our principal cash requirements have included working capital, capital
expenditures, payments of principal and interest on our debt, and, if market
conditions warrant, making selected acquisitions. We may elect to use cash from
operations, debt proceeds, equity or a combination thereof to finance future
acquisition opportunities.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $118.7 million and $11.3
million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The
$107.4 million increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily
related the increase in net income over the nine months ended June 30, 2020,
partially offset by higher inventory levels.

Investing Activities



Net cash provided by (used) in investing activities was $(116.0) million and
$(73.0) million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities for the nine months ended
June 30, 2021 primarily consisted of purchases of property, plant and equipment
to support our expansion of capacity in our manufacturing facilities, as
compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2020, which primarily consisted of
purchases of property, plant and equipment in the normal course of business and
$18.5 million for the acquisition of Return Polymers, Inc.

Financing Activities



     Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $2.7 million and
$170.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities for the nine months ended
June 30, 2021 primarily consisted of cash received from the exercise of stock
options and debt fees paid to third parties, as compared to the nine months
ended June 30, 2020, which primarily consisted of proceeds from our IPO, net of
related costs, our issuance of the 2025 Senior Notes and the Revolving Credit
Facility, offset by our redemption of the 2025 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior
Notes, debt payments and redemptions of capital contributions.

Indebtedness

Revolving Credit Facility



The Revolving Credit Facility provides for maximum aggregate borrowings of up to
$150.0 million, subject to an asset-based borrowing base. Outstanding revolving
loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate which
equals, at our option, either (i) for alternative base rate, or ABR, borrowings,
the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 50 basis points, (b) the prime
rate and (c) the LIBOR, as of such date for a deposit in U.S. dollars with a
maturity of one month plus 100 basis points, plus, in each case, a spread of 25
to 75 basis points based on average historical availability, or (ii) for
Eurocurrency borrowings, adjusted LIBOR plus a spread of 125 to 175 basis
points, based on average historical availability. The maturity of the Revolving
Credit Facility is the earlier of March 31, 2026 and the date that is 91 days
prior to the maturity of the Term Loan Agreement or any permitted refinancing
thereof.

A "commitment fee" accrues on any unused portion of the revolving commitments
under the Revolving Credit Facility during the preceding three calendar month
period. If the average daily used percentage is greater than 50%, the commitment
fee equals 25 basis points, and if the average daily used percentage is less
than or equal to 50%, the commitment fee equals 37.5 basis points.

The obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first
priority security interest in certain assets, including substantially all of the
accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, securities accounts and cash
assets of the Company, CPG International LLC and the subsidiaries of CPG
International LLC that are guarantors under the Revolving Credit Facility, and
the proceeds thereof (subject to certain exceptions), or the Revolver Priority
Collateral, plus a second priority security interest in all of the Term Loan
Priority Collateral (as defined below). The obligations under the Revolving
Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company and the wholly owned domestic
subsidiaries of CPG International LLC other than certain immaterial subsidiaries
and other excluded subsidiaries.

                                       36

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Revolving loans under the Revolving Credit Facility may be voluntarily prepaid
in whole, or in part, in each case without premium or penalty. CPG International
LLC is also required to make mandatory prepayments (i) when aggregate borrowings
exceed commitments or the applicable borrowing base and (ii) during "cash
dominion," which occurs if (a) the availability under the Revolving Credit
Facility is less than the greater of (i) $12.5 million and (ii) 10% of the
lesser of (x) $150.0 million and (y) the borrowing base, for five consecutive
business days or (b) certain events of default have occurred and are continuing.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains affirmative covenants that are customary
for financings of this type, including allowing the Revolver Administrative
Agent to perform periodic field exams and appraisals to evaluate the borrowing
base. The Revolving Credit Facility contains various negative covenants,
including limitations on, subject to certain exceptions, the incurrence of
indebtedness, the incurrence of liens, dispositions, investments, acquisitions,
restricted payments, transactions with affiliates, as well as other negative
covenants customary for financings of this type. The Revolving Credit Facility
also includes a financial maintenance covenant, applicable only when the excess
availability is less than the greater of (i) 10% of the lesser of the aggregate
commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility and the borrowing base, and (ii)
$12.5 million. In such circumstances, we would be required to maintain a minimum
fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) for
the trailing four quarters equal to at least 1.0 to 1.0; 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 June 30, 2021 and September 30,
2020, CPG International LLC was in compliance with the financial and
nonfinancial covenants imposed by the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving
Credit Facility also includes customary events of default, including the
occurrence of a change of control.

We also have the option to increase the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility by up to $100.0 million, subject to certain conditions.

Term Loan Agreement



The Term Loan Agreement is a first lien term loan. As of each of June 30, 2021,
and September 30, 2020, CPG International LLC had $467.7 million outstanding
under the Term Loan Agreement. The Term Loan Agreement will mature on May 5,
2024.

The interest rate applicable to the outstanding principal under the Term Loan
Agreement equals, at our option, either, (i) in the case of ABR borrowings, the
highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate as of such day plus 50 basis points,
(b) the prime rate and (c) the LIBOR as of such day for a deposit in U.S.
dollars with a maturity of one month plus 100 basis points, provided that in no
event will the alternative base rate be less than 175 basis points, plus, in
each case, the applicable margin of 150 basis points per annum; or (ii) in the
case of Eurocurrency borrowings, the greater of (a) the LIBOR in effect for such
interest period divided by one, minus the statutory reserves applicable to such
Eurocurrency borrowing, if any, and (b) 75 basis points, plus the applicable
margin of 250 basis points per annum. The applicable margin may be reduced by a
further 25 basis points in respect of both Eurocurrency borrowings and ABR
borrowings during any period that CPG International LLC maintains specified
public corporate family ratings.

The obligations under the Term Loan Agreement are secured by a first priority
security interest in the membership interests of CPG International LLC owned by
the Company, the equity interests of CPG International LLC's domestic
subsidiaries and all remaining assets not constituting Revolver Priority
Collateral (subject to certain exceptions) of the Company, CPG International LLC
and the subsidiaries of CPG International LLC that are guarantors under the Term
Loan Agreement, or the Term Loan Priority Collateral, and a second priority
security interest in the Revolver Priority Collateral. The obligations under the
Term Loan Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and the wholly owned domestic
subsidiaries of CPG International LLC other than certain immaterial subsidiaries
and other excluded subsidiaries.

The Term Loan Agreement may be voluntarily prepaid in whole, or in part, in each
case without premium or penalty (other than the Prepayment Premium, as defined
in the Term Loan Agreement, if applicable), subject to certain customary
conditions. CPG International LLC is also required to make mandatory prepayments
in an amount equal to (i) 100% of the net cash proceeds from casualty events or
the disposition of property or assets, subject to customary reinvestment rights,
(ii) 100% of the net cash proceeds from the incurrence or issuance of
indebtedness (other than permitted indebtedness) by CPG International LLC or any
restricted subsidiary and (iii) 50% of excess cash flow, with such percentage
subject to reduction (to 25% and to 0%) upon achievement of specified leverage
ratios and which prepayment may be declined by the lenders under the Term Loan
Agreement. At September 30, 2020, no excess cash flow payment was required based
on the current leverage ratio. The lenders under the Term Loan Agreement have
the option to decline any prepayments based on excess cash flows. Additionally,
CPG International LLC is required to pay the outstanding principal amount of the
Term Loan Agreement in quarterly installments of 0.25253% of the aggregate
principal amount under the Term Loan Agreement outstanding, and such quarterly
payments may be reduced as a result of prepayments. Based on the prepayment of
$337.7 million made with net proceeds we received from our IPO, CPG
International LLC has prepaid all of the quarterly principal payments otherwise
due through the maturity of the Term Loan Agreement.

The Term Loan Agreement contains affirmative covenants, negative covenants and
events of default, which are broadly consistent with those in the Revolving
Credit Facility (with certain differences consistent with the differences
between a revolving loan and term loan) and that are customary for facilities of
this type. The Term Loan Agreement does not have any financial maintenance
covenants. As of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, CPG International LLC was
in compliance with the covenants

                                       37

imposed by the Term Loan Agreement. The Term Loan Agreement also includes customary events of default, including the occurrence of a change of control.



We have the right to arrange for incremental term loans under the Term Loan
Agreement of up to an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million, plus the
amounts incurred under Incremental Amendment No. 1 thereto, plus any amounts
previously voluntarily prepaid, with additional incremental term loans available
if certain leverage ratios are achieved.

Restrictions on Dividends



The Senior Secured Credit Facilities each restrict payments of dividends unless
certain conditions, as provided in the Revolving Credit Facility or the Term
Loan Agreement, as applicable, are met.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements



In addition to our debt guarantees, we have contractual commitments for
purchases of certain minimum quantities of raw materials at index-based prices,
and non-cancelable capital and operating leases, outstanding letters of credit
and fixed asset purchase commitments. We have no other material non-cancelable
guarantees or commitments, and no material special purpose entities or other
off-balance sheet debt obligations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



Our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in
accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and
related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing
basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other
assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual
results could differ materially from those estimates.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as
compared to the critical accounting policies and significant judgments and
estimates disclosed in our 2020 Form 10-K, except as updated in Note 1 of our
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q.
