Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The January 1, 2022, consolidated balance sheet included in this Form 10-Q was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended October 1, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in HNI Corporation's (the "Corporation") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022. Certain reclassifications have been made within the interim financial information to conform to the current presentation. All dollar amounts presented are in millions, except per share data or where otherwise indicated. Amounts may not sum due to rounding.

Sales by product category are subject to similar economic factors and market conditions. See "Note 14. Reportable Segment Information" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information about operating segments.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
In addition to trade receivables, the Corporation has contract assets consisting of funds paid or payable to certain workplace furnishings dealers in exchange for their multi-year commitment to market and sell the Corporation's products. These contract assets are amortized over the term of the contracts and recognized as a reduction of revenue. The Corporation has contract liabilities consisting of customer deposits and rebate and marketing program liabilities.

Contract assets and contract liabilities were as follows:
October 1,
2022
January 1,
2022
Trade receivables (1)$243.8 $240.0 
Contract assets (current) (2)$2.8 $1.5 
Contract assets (long-term) (3)$30.6 $18.2 
Contract liabilities - Customer deposits (4)$30.3 $27.2 
Contract liabilities - Accrued rebate and marketing programs (4)$38.2 $31.5

The index below indicates the line item in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets where contract assets and contract liabilities are reported:

(1)     "Receivables"
(2)     "Prepaid expenses and other current assets"
(3)     "Other Assets"
(4)     "Accounts payable and accrued expenses"

The increase in long-term contract assets is related to multi-year distribution agreements in the workplace furnishings segment. Contract liabilities for customer deposits paid to the Corporation prior to the satisfaction of performance obligations are recognized as revenue upon completion of the performance obligations. The contract liability balance related to customer deposits was $27.2 million as of January 1, 2022, of which, $25.8 million was recognized as revenue in the first nine months of 2022.

Performance Obligations
The Corporation recognizes revenue for sales of workplace furnishings and residential building products at a point in time following the transfer of control of such products to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment of the product. In certain circumstances, transfer of control to the customer does not occur until the goods are received by the customer or upon installation and/or customer acceptance, depending on the terms of the underlying contracts. Contracts typically have a duration of less than one year and normally do not include a significant financing component. Generally, payment is due within 30 days of invoicing.

The Corporation's backlog orders are typically cancellable for a period of time and almost all contracts have an original duration of one year or less. As a result, the Corporation has elected the practical expedient permitted in the revenue accounting standard not to disclose the unsatisfied performance obligation as of period end. The backlog is typically fulfilled within a few months.

Significant Judgments
The amount of consideration the Corporation receives and revenue recognized varies with changes in rebate and marketing program incentives, as well as early pay discounts, offered to customers. The Corporation uses significant judgment throughout the year in estimating the reduction in net sales driven by variable consideration for rebate and marketing programs. Judgments made include expected sales levels and utilization of funds. However, this judgment factor is significantly reduced at the end of each year when sales volumes and the impact to rebate and marketing programs are known and recorded as the programs typically end near the Corporation's fiscal year end.

Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures

In July 2022, the Corporation closed on the sale of its China- and Hong Kong-based Lamex ("Lamex") business, which was a component of the workplace furnishings segment, for approximately $75 million plus standard post-closing adjustments, net of cash acquired by the buyer. The Corporation recorded a pre-tax gain on sale in the current quarter of $50.6 million that included transaction-related expenses of approximately $5 million.

In June 2022, the Corporation acquired Dickerson Hearth Products ("Dickerson"), an installing fireplace distributor in the Raleigh, North Carolina area, for approximately $8 million. The transaction, which aligns with the Corporation's vertical integration strategy in the residential building products market, was structured as an asset acquisition and was consummated entirely in cash. The preliminary purchase price allocation includes $7.7 million of goodwill, which includes the impact of immaterial purchase adjustments made during the current quarter. The remaining assets and liabilities acquired were not material to the consolidated financial statements. The Corporation expects to finalize the allocation of the purchase price during 2022.

In December 2021, the Corporation acquired The Outdoor GreatRoom Company ("OGC"), a leading manufacturer and supplier of premium outdoor fire tables and fire pits, for approximately $15 million. This transaction, which positions the Corporation to grow and develop a leading position in the fast-growing outdoor living market, was structured as a stock acquisition and was consummated entirely in cash.

In October 2021, the Corporation acquired Trinity Hearth & Home ("Trinity"), an installing fireplace distributor in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, for approximately $31 million. This transaction, which aligns with the Corporation's vertical integration

10


strategy in the residential building products market and provides a hub to better serve customers in the rapidly growing Southwest region, was structured as an asset acquisition and was consummated entirely in cash.

The assets and liabilities of Trinity, OGC, and Dickerson are included in the Corporation's residential building products segment. The related goodwill, which is expected to be tax deductible, is assigned to the residential building products reporting unit.

The purchase price allocation for Trinity and OGC, and estimated amortization periods of identified intangible assets as of the respective dates of acquisition is as follows:
TrinityOGC

Goodwill14.2 2.4 
Customer lists12.0 13 Years4.9 10 Years
Trade names— 2.5 10 Years
Total Net Assets$31.3 $15.3 

As a result of further review and refinement, measurement period adjustments were recorded in the first quarter of 2022 which decreased Trinity's inventory acquired by $0.2 million and increased goodwill related to both acquisitions by $0.9 million in the aggregate. Additionally, the aggregate purchase price of the deals increased by $0.8 million as a result of post-closing working capital settlements. There were no measurement period adjustments recorded after the first quarter of 2022, and the purchase accounting for the Trinity and OGC acquisitions was complete as of July 2, 2022.

All acquisitions above were accounted for using the acquisition method pursuant to ASC 805, with goodwill being recorded as a result of the purchase price exceeding the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities.

Note 4.  Inventories

The Corporation's residential building products inventories, and a majority of its workplace furnishings inventories, are valued at cost, on the "last-in, first-out" (LIFO) basis. Remaining inventories are generally valued at the lower of cost, on the "first-in, first-out" (FIFO) basis, or net realizable value. Inventories included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets consisted of the following:

In addition to the LIFO allowance, the Corporation recorded inventory allowances of $15.0 million and $19.9 million as of October 1, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively, to adjust for excess and obsolete inventory or otherwise reduce FIFO-basis inventory to net realizable value.

Goodwill and accumulated impairment losses were disposed in conjunction with the sale of Lamex in third quarter of 2022. See "Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures" for additional information on transactions that resulted in changes in goodwill in 2022.

Definite-lived intangible assets
The table below summarizes amortizable definite-lived intangible assets, which are reflected in "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

Amortization expense$30.9 $26.9 $22.6 $19.5 $16.6 

Indefinite-lived intangible assets
The Corporation also owns certain intangible assets, which are deemed to have indefinite useful lives because they are expected to generate cash flows indefinitely. These indefinite-lived intangible assets are reflected in "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:
October 1,
2022
January 1,
2022
Trademarks and trade names$15.5 $26.5 

In the third quarter of 2022, the Corporation sold its Lamex business which resulted in the disposal of the related indefinite-lived trade name.

Impairment Analysis
The Corporation evaluates its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter, or whenever indicators of impairment exist. The Corporation also evaluates long-lived assets (which include definite-lived intangible assets) for impairment if indicators exist.

Note 6.  Product Warranties

The Corporation issues certain warranty policies on its workplace furnishings and residential building products that provide for repair or replacement of any covered product or component that fails during normal use because of a defect in design, materials, or workmanship. The duration of warranty policies on the Corporation's products varies based on the type of product. Allowances have been established for the anticipated future costs associated with the Corporation's warranty programs.

A warranty allowance is determined by recording a specific allowance for known warranty issues and an additional allowance for unknown claims expected to be incurred based on historical claims experience. Actual costs incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the allowance. Activity associated with warranty obligations was as follows:

Note 7.  Debt

Revolving credit facility with interest at a variable rate
 (October 1, 2022 - 4.2%; January 1, 2022 - 1.1%)

Total debt200.8 177.8 
Less: Current maturities of debt1.2 3.2 
Long-term debt$199.7 $174.6 

The carrying value of the Corporation's outstanding variable-rate, long-term debt obligations at October 1, 2022, was $100 million, which approximated fair value. The fair value of the fixed rate notes was estimated based on a discounted cash flow method (Level 2) to be $97 million at October 1, 2022.

As of October 1, 2022, the Corporation's revolving credit facility borrowings were under the amended and restated credit agreement entered into on June 14, 2022, with a scheduled maturity of June 2027. The Corporation deferred the related debt issuance costs, which are classified as assets, and is amortizing them over the term of the credit agreement. The current portion of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million is the amount to be amortized over the next twelve months based on the current credit agreement and is reflected in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The long-term portion of debt issuance costs of $1.2 million is reflected in "Other Assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of October 1, 2022, there was $100 million outstanding under the $400 million revolving credit facility. The entire amount drawn under the revolving credit facility is considered long-term as the Corporation assumes no obligation to repay any of the amounts borrowed in the next twelve months. Based on current earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, the Corporation can access the full remaining $300 million of borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility and maintain compliance with applicable covenants.

In addition to cash flows from operations, the revolving credit facility under the credit agreement is the primary source of daily operating capital for the Corporation and provides additional financial capacity for capital expenditures, repurchases of common stock, and strategic initiatives, such as acquisitions.

In addition to the revolving credit facility, the Corporation also has $100 million of borrowings outstanding under private placement note agreements entered into on May 31, 2018. Under the agreements, the Corporation issued $50 million of seven-year fixed-rate notes with an interest rate of 4.22 percent, due May 31, 2025, and $50 million of ten-year fixed-rate notes with an interest rate of 4.40 percent, due May 31, 2028. The Corporation deferred the debt issuance costs related to the private placement note agreements, which are classified as a reduction of long-term debt, and is amortizing them over the terms of the private placement note agreements. The deferred debt issuance costs do not reduce the amount owed by the Corporation under the terms of the private placement note agreements. As of October 1, 2022, the deferred debt issuance costs balance of $0.3

14


million related to the private placement note agreements is reflected in "Long-Term Debt" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The credit agreement and private placement notes both contain financial and non-financial covenants. The covenants under both are substantially the same. Non-compliance with covenants under the agreements could prevent the Corporation from being able to access further borrowings, require immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding, and/or increase the cost of borrowing.

Covenants require maintenance of financial ratios as of the end of any fiscal quarter, including:

a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not less than 4.0 to 1.0, based upon the ratio of (a) consolidated EBITDA for the last four fiscal quarters to (b) the sum of consolidated interest charges; and
a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not greater than 3.5 to 1.0, based upon the ratio of (a) the quarter-end consolidated funded indebtedness to (b) consolidated EBITDA for the last four fiscal quarters.

The most restrictive of the financial covenants is the consolidated leverage ratio requirement of 3.5 to 1.0. Under the credit agreement, consolidated EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization of intangibles, as well as non-cash items that increase or decrease net income. As of October 1, 2022, the Corporation was below the maximum allowable ratio and was in compliance with all of the covenants and other restrictions in the credit agreement. The Corporation expects to remain in compliance with all of the covenants and other restrictions in the credit agreement over the next twelve months.

Note 8.  Income Taxes

The Corporation's tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items. The following table summarizes the Corporation's income tax provision:

Income taxes$16.4 $5.2 $18.2 $16.5 
Effective tax rate20.7 %21.5 %14.5 %24.2 %

The Corporation's effective tax rate was substantially lower in the nine months ended October 1, 2022, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the sale of the Lamex business in July 2022. This transaction created tax benefits related to existing deferred tax assets that were previously reduced through valuation adjustments, as well as basis differences, which significantly reduced the Corporation's year-to-date effective tax rate. See "Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures" for further information regarding the sale of Lamex.

Note 9.  Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments

For recognition purposes, on a recurring basis, the Corporation is required to measure at fair value its marketable securities, derivative financial instruments, put option liabilities, and deferred stock-based compensation. The marketable securities are comprised of money market funds, government securities, and corporate bonds. When available, the Corporation uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classifies such measurements within Level 1. Where market prices are not available, the Corporation makes use of observable market-based inputs (prices or quotes from published exchanges and indexes) to calculate fair value using the market approach, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2. Significant unobservable inputs, which are classified within Level 3, are used in the estimation of the fair value of put options related to private entities, determined using a simulation model based on assumptions including future cash flows, discount rates, and volatility.

Interest Rate Swap Termination
In April 2022, the Corporation terminated its interest rate swap agreement and received cash proceeds of $0.4 million, the fair value of the swap on the termination date. The proceeds were recorded as cash provided by operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The $0.4 million gain from the termination of this interest rate swap agreement was recorded to "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" and will be amortized to interest expense through April 2023, the remaining term of the original interest rate swap agreement.

Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation

The Corporation measures stock-based compensation expense at grant date, based on the fair value of the award. Forms of awards issued under shareholder approved plans include stock options, restricted stock units based on a service condition ("restricted stock units"), restricted stock units based on both performance and service conditions ("performance stock units"), and shares issued under member stock purchase plans. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock units is recognized over the employees' requisite service periods, adjusted for an estimated forfeiture rate for those shares not expected to vest. Additionally, expense related to performance stock units is adjusted for the probability that the Corporation will perform within an established target range of cumulative profitability over a multi-year

18


period. In the third quarter of 2022, management's estimate of cumulative profitability in connection with various tranches of performance stock units was reduced, resulting in a decrease to the aggregate expense recognized to date, as well as to unrecognized expense.

The following table summarizes expense associated with these plans:

Note 13.  Guarantees, Commitments, and Contingencies

The Corporation utilizes letters of credit and surety bonds in the amount of approximately $27 million to back certain insurance policies and payment obligations. Additionally, the Corporation periodically utilizes trade letters of credit and bankers' acceptances to guarantee certain payments to overseas suppliers; as of October 1, 2022, there were no outstanding amounts related to these types of guarantees. The letters of credit, bonds, and bankers' acceptances reflect fair value as a condition of their underlying purpose and are subject to competitively determined fees.

The Corporation periodically guarantees borrowing arrangements involving certain workplace furnishings dealers and third-party financial institutions. The terms of these guarantees, which range from less than one year to five years, generally require the Corporation to make payments directly to the financial institution in the event that the dealer is unable to repay its borrowings in accordance with the stated terms. The aggregate amount guaranteed by the Corporation in connection with these agreements is approximately $12 million as of October 1, 2022. The Corporation has determined the likelihood of making future payments under these guarantees is not probable and therefore no liability has been accrued.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Corporation entered into an agreement to lease a new facility. The lease requires approximately $61 million of legally binding minimum payments over the approximate 15-year term of the agreement. The contractual payments and lease accounting are expected to commence in 2023 when construction of the facility is complete.

The Corporation has contingent liabilities which have arisen in the ordinary course of its business, including liabilities relating to pending litigation, environmental remediation, taxes, and other claims. It is the Corporation's opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, that liabilities, if any, resulting from these matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial condition, cash flows, or on the Corporation's quarterly or annual operating results when resolved in a future period.


19


Note 14.  Reportable Segment Information

Management views the Corporation as two reportable segments based on industries: workplace furnishings and residential building products.

The aggregated workplace furnishings segment manufactures and markets a broad line of commercial and home office furniture, which includes panel-based and freestanding furniture systems, seating, storage, tables, and architectural products. The residential building products segment manufactures and markets a full array of gas, wood, electric, and pellet fueled fireplaces, inserts, stoves, facings, and accessories.

For purposes of segment reporting, intercompany sales between segments are not material, and operating profit is income before income taxes exclusive of certain unallocated general corporate expenses. These unallocated general corporate expenses include the net costs of the Corporation's corporate operations. Management views interest income and expense as corporate financing costs and not as a reportable segment cost. In addition, management applies an effective income tax rate to its consolidated income before income taxes so income taxes are not reported or viewed internally on a segment basis. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets applicable to the respective industry segments. Corporate assets consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, long-term investments, IT infrastructure, and corporate office real estate and related equipment.

No geographic information for revenues from external customers or for long-lived assets is disclosed since the Corporation's primary market and capital investments are concentrated in the United States.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion of the Corporation's historical results of operations and of its liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022. All dollar amounts presented are in millions, except per share data or where otherwise indicated. Statements that are not historical are forward-looking and involve risks and uncertainties. See "Forward-Looking Statements" at the end of this section for further information.

Overview

The Corporation has two reportable segments: workplace furnishings and residential building products. The Corporation is a leading global designer and provider of commercial and home office furnishings, and a leading manufacturer and marketer of hearth products. The Corporation utilizes a decentralized business model to deliver value to customers via various brands and selling models. The Corporation is focused on growing its existing businesses while seeking out and developing new opportunities for growth.

Significant developments in the third quarter include the Corporation's sale of its China- and Hong Kong-based Lamex office furniture business to Kokuyo Co., Ltd, a leading manufacturer and provider of office furniture in Japan and across Asia, for $75 million U.S. dollars, plus standard post-closing adjustments. This transaction further streamlines the Corporation's business portfolio and allows for an enhanced focus on the Corporation's core strategies. In response to the current environment and anticipated further weakening in market conditions, the Corporation initiated company-wide cost reduction actions during the third quarter. The savings are estimated to be $30 million on an annual basis once they become fully mature in 2023.

Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 2022 were $598.8 million, an increase of 2.1 percent compared to net sales of $586.7 million in the prior-year quarter. The change was due to a 15.5 percent increase in the residential building products segment, partially offset by a 4.6 percent decrease in the workplace furnishings segment. The acquisition of residential building products companies contributed incremental year-over-year sales of $11.2 million, and the sale of the Lamex business decreased year-over-year sales by $17.9 million. See "Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures" for acquisition and divestiture activity.

Net income attributable to the Corporation in the third quarter of 2022 was $63.1 million compared to $19.2 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was driven by a $50.6 million pre-tax gain on the sale of Lamex, along with favorable price-cost, improved product mix, lower variable compensation, and lower core selling and administrative expenses ("SG&A"), partially offset by lower workplace furnishings volume, lower net productivity, and increased investment spend.

Results of Operations - Three Months Ended

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 2022 increased 2.1 percent compared to the same quarter last year. The change was driven by price realization in both the residential building products and workplace furnishings segments, along with higher residential building products volume, partially offset by lower volume in the workplace furnishings segment. Included in the sales results for the current quarter was a $17.9 million unfavorable impact from the divestiture of Lamex and an $11.2 million favorable impact from acquiring residential building products companies.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased 170 basis points in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter last year, driven by improved price-cost and favorable product mix, partially offset by lower volume in the workplace furnishings segment, operational investments, and reduced net productivity. Included in current quarter cost of sales was $3.6 million in one-time charges primarily due to strategic restructuring of an eCommerce business in the workplace furnishings segment that commenced in the fourth quarter of 2021.


23



Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased 100 basis points in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter last year, driven by $5.6 million associated with a company-wide cost reduction initiative, along with lower volume in the workplace furnishings segment, higher investment spend, and increased freight costs, partially offset by dilution from price realization, lower variable compensation, and lower core SG&A.

Gain on Sale of Subsidiary

In the third quarter of 2022, the Corporation recorded a one-time pretax gain of $50.6 million as a result of the divestiture of the Lamex business.

Operating Income

In the third quarter of 2022, operating income was $81.9 million, compared to $26.2 million in the same quarter last year. The increase was driven by the gain on sale of the Lamex business, along with favorable price-cost, favorable product mix, lower variable compensation, and lower core SG&A, partially offset by lower workplace furnishings volume, lower net productivity, and increased investment spend. The Corporation also incurred $9.1 million of one-time charges in the current-year quarter related to restructuring of an eCommerce business and a company-wide cost reduction initiative. There were no comparable one-time charges in the prior-year quarter.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net for the third quarter of 2022 was $2.4 million, compared to $1.9 million in the same quarter last year, driven by an increase in the average debt balance year-over-year and higher interest rates on the Corporation's variable-rate debt, partially offset by amortization of the gain recorded on termination of the Corporation's interest rate swap. See "Note 10.  Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Shareholders' Equity" for further information on the termination of the interest rate swap.

Income Taxes

The Corporation's income tax provision for the third quarter of 2022 was $16.4 million on income before taxes of $79.5 million, or an effective tax rate of 20.7 percent. For the third quarter of 2021, the Corporation's income tax provision was $5.2 million on pre-tax income of $24.4 million, or an effective tax rate of 21.5 percent.

Net Income Attributable to HNI Corporation

Net income attributable to the Corporation was $63.1 million, or $1.51 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $19.2 million, or $0.43 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2021.

Results of Operations - Nine Months Ended

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the first nine months of 2022 increased 13.4 percent compared to the same period last year. The change was due to a 21.5 percent increase in the residential building products segment and a 9.1 percent increase in the workplace furnishings segment. Price realization in both segments drove the improved sales performance, along with higher volume in the residential building products segment. Included in the sales results for the current period was a $17.9 million unfavorable impact from the divestiture of Lamex and a $39.8 million favorable impact from acquiring residential building products companies.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 60 basis points in the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period last year primarily driven by reduced net productivity, partially offset by higher residential building products volume. Included in current year-to-date period cost of sales is $4.0 million in one-time charges primarily due to strategic restructuring of an eCommerce business in the workplace furnishings segment that commenced in the fourth quarter of 2021.


24



Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased 60 basis points in the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period last year due to dilution from price realization and lower variable compensation, partially offset by increased freight costs, higher investment spend, and lower workplace furnishings volume. Additionally, $5.6 million of one-time charges were recorded in the current year period related to a company-wide cost reduction initiative. In the prior-year period, $1.4 million of one-time costs were recorded in connection with showroom exits.

Gain on Sale of Subsidiary

In the first nine months of 2022, the Corporation recorded a one-time pretax gain of $50.6 million as a result of the divestiture of the Lamex business.

Impairment Charges

In the first nine months of 2022, the Corporation recorded a charge of $1.0 million related to the full impairment of an equity investment. The Corporation did not record any impairment charges during the first nine months of 2021.

Operating Income

In the first nine months of 2022, operating income was $132.2 million, compared to operating income of $73.5 million in the same period last year. Results improved compared to the prior-year period driven by the gain on sale of the Corporation's Lamex business, along with favorable price-cost and higher volume in the residential building products segment, partially offset by lower operational productivity, increased investments and freight costs, and the one-time charges discussed above related to restructuring of an eCommerce brand and a company-wide cost reduction initiative.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net for the first nine months of 2022 was $6.5 million, compared to $5.5 million in the same period last year. The increase was driven by an increase in the average debt balance year-over-year and higher interest rates on the Corporation's variable rate debt, partially offset by amortization of the gain recorded on termination of the Corporation's interest rate swap. See "Note 10.  Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Shareholders' Equity" for further information on the termination of the interest rate swap.

Income Taxes

The Corporation's income tax provision for the first nine months of 2022 was $18.2 million on income before taxes of $125.8 million, or an effective tax rate of 14.5 percent. For the first nine months of 2021, the Corporation's income tax provision was $16.5 million on income before taxes of $68.1 million, or an effective tax rate of 24.2 percent. The Corporation's effective tax rate was lower in the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period last year primarily due to the sale of the Lamex business in July 2022. This transaction created tax benefits related to existing deferred tax assets that were previously reduced through valuation adjustments, as well as basis differences, which significantly reduced the Corporation's year-to-date effective tax rate.

Net Income Attributable to HNI Corporation

Net income attributable to the Corporation was $107.6 million, or $2.54 per diluted share in the first nine months of 2022, compared to net income attributable to the Corporation of $51.6 million, or $1.17 per diluted share in the first nine months of 2021.

Three months ended
Third quarter 2022 net sales for the workplace furnishings segment decreased 4.6 percent compared to the same quarter last year. The impact of the sale of the Lamex business during the quarter decreased net sales by $17.9 million compared to the prior quarter. Aside from this item, segment sales were flat, with price realization in most customer segments offset by decreased volume from small- and medium-sized business and contract customers, as well as lower eCommerce volume due to the previously announced restructuring of one of the Corporation's eCommerce brands.

Operating profit as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter of 2022 increased 50 basis points compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was driven by favorable price-cost, favorable product mix, and lower core SG&A, partially offset by lower volume, reduced net productivity, and increased investment spend. Additionally, the segment recorded $3.6 million of one-time charges in the current quarter primarily due to strategic restructuring of an eCommerce business that commenced in the fourth quarter of 2021. No one-time charges were recorded in the prior year quarter.

Nine months ended
Net sales for the first nine months of 2022 for the workplace furnishings segment increased 9.1 percent compared to the same period last year. The results were driven by price realization in most customer segments, partially offset by the divestiture of the Lamex business, which reduced net sales for the current period by $17.9 million, and lower eCommerce volume as a result of a previously announced restructuring at one of the Corporation's eCommerce businesses.

Operating profit as a percentage of net sales increased 10 basis points in the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by favorable price-cost and improved product mix, partially offset by lower operational productivity and increased investments. Additionally, in the first nine months of 2022, the workplace furnishings segment recorded $4.0 million of one-time charges primarily due to strategic restructuring of an eCommerce business that commenced in the fourth quarter of 2021. $1.4 million of one-time costs were recorded in the first nine months of 2021 as a result of showroom exits.

Third quarter 2022 net sales for the residential building products segment increased 15.5 percent compared to the same quarter last year, driven by price realization and volume growth in both the new construction and existing home channels.

Operating profit as a percentage of net sales increased 50 basis points in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter last year, driven by favorable price-cost and higher volume, partially offset by the impact of acquisitions and increased investment spend.

Nine months ended
Net sales for the first nine months of 2022 for the residential building products segment increased 21.5 percent compared to the same period last year, driven by price realization and volume growth in both the new construction and existing home channels. Included in the sales results was a $39.8 million favorable impact from acquiring residential building products companies.

Operating profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 140 basis points in the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was primarily driven by the impact of acquisitions, lower operational productivity, increased core SG&A and investment spend, partially offset by increased volume and lower variable compensation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, coupled with cash flow from future operations, borrowing capacity under the existing credit agreement, and the ability to access capital markets, are expected to be adequate to fund operations and satisfy cash flow needs for at least the next twelve months. Based on current earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, the Corporation can access the full $400 million of borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility, which includes the $100 million currently outstanding, and maintain compliance with applicable covenants.

Cash Flow – Operating Activities
Operating activities were a source of $33.9 million of cash in the first nine months of 2022 compared to a source of $88.5 million of cash in the first nine months of 2021. Working capital requirements are the primary driver of the variance from prior year due to timing. In the current year inventory was purchased earlier resulting in higher asset balances but lower short term liabilities. Inflationary cost pressures are also a driver of the higher working capital requirements.

Cash Flow – Investing Activities
Capital Expenditures - Capital expenditures, including capitalized software, for the first nine months of 2022 were $48.7 million compared to $47.8 million in the same period last year. These expenditures are primarily focused on machinery, equipment, and tooling required to support new products, continuous improvements, and cost savings initiatives in manufacturing processes. Additionally, in support of the Corporation's long-term strategy to create effortless winning experiences for customers, the Corporation continues to invest in technology and digital assets. For the full year 2022, capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $70 to $75 million.

Acquisitions and Divestitures - Investing activities include acquisition spending for residential building products companies and proceeds from the sale of the Corporation's Lamex business. See "Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures" in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Cash Flow – Financing Activities
Debt - The Corporation maintains a revolving credit facility as the primary source of committed funding from which the Corporation finances its planned capital expenditures, strategic initiatives, and seasonal working capital needs. Cash flows included in financing activities represent periodic borrowings and repayments under the revolving credit facility. See "Note 7. Debt" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Dividend - The Corporation is committed to maintaining or modestly growing the quarterly dividend. Cash dividends declared and paid per common share were as follows:

During the third quarter, the Board declared the regular quarterly cash dividend on August 16, 2022. The dividend was paid on September 8, 2022, to shareholders of record as of August 26, 2022.

Stock Repurchase - The Corporation's capital strategy related to stock repurchase is focused on offsetting the dilutive impact of issuances for various compensation related matters. The Corporation may elect to opportunistically purchase additional shares

based on excess cash generation and/or share price considerations. The Board most recently authorized an additional $200 million on May 17, 2022, for repurchases of the Corporation's common stock. As of October 1, 2022, approximately $234.0 million remained of the Board's current repurchase authorizations. See "Note 10. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Shareholders' Equity" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Cash Requirements

Various commitments and obligations associated with ongoing business and financing activities will result in cash payments in future periods. A summary of the amounts and estimated timing of these future cash payments was provided in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022. Except for the item described below, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the Corporation's contractual obligations or the estimated timing of the future cash payments during the first nine months of 2022.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Corporation entered into an agreement to lease a new facility. The lease requires approximately $61 million of legally binding minimum payments over the approximate 15-year term of the agreement. The contractual payments and lease accounting are expected to commence in 2023 when construction of the facility is complete.

Commitments and Contingencies

See "Note 13. Guarantees, Commitments, and Contingencies" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon the Consolidated Financial Statements, prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on a variety of other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Senior management has discussed the development, selection, and disclosure of these estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A summary of the more significant accounting policies requiring the use of estimates and assumptions in preparing the financial statements is provided in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities—Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. ASU 2022-04 enhances transparency of supplier finance programs by requiring disclosure of key terms, amounts outstanding, a rollforward of outstanding amounts, and a description of where in the financial statements outstanding amounts are presented. ASU 2022-04 is effective for the Corporation in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Looking Ahead

The Corporation continues to navigate near-term uncertainty driven by macroeconomic conditions including the impacts of the pandemic and recent dynamics around labor availability, supply chain capacity, and cost inflation. However, management remains optimistic about the long-term prospects in the workplace furnishings and residential building products markets. Management believes the Corporation continues to compete well and remains confident the investments made in the business will continue to generate strong returns for shareholders.

The risks and uncertainties described in this report, as well as those described within Item 1A of the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022, are not exclusive and further information concerning the Corporation, including factors that potentially could have a material effect on the Corporation's financial results or condition, may emerge from time to time.

The Corporation advises you, however, to consult any further disclosures made on related subjects in future reports filed with or furnished to the SEC.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As of October 1, 2022, there have been no material changes to the financial market risks affecting the quantitative and qualitative disclosures presented in Item 7A of the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022, except as described below.

In the second quarter of 2022, the Corporation terminated an interest rate swap agreement that had formerly been in place to fix the interest rate on $75 million of borrowings from the Corporation's revolving credit facility. As of October 1, 2022, the Corporation does not have any interest rate swap agreements or other derivative instruments outstanding. Also in the second quarter, the Corporation and its lenders agreed to amend and restate the revolving credit facility, which decreased the borrowing capacity from $450 million to $400 million, at the preference of the Corporation, while extending the maturity from April 2023 to June 2027. The amended facility bears interest at a variable rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate.

As of October 1, 2022, the Corporation had $200.8 million of outstanding borrowings, of which $100 million was under the revolving credit facility and thus subject to market risk from interest rate fluctuations. The majority of the remaining debt balance is under private placement note agreements that bear interest at fixed rates. See "Note 7. Debt" and "Note 10. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Shareholders' Equity" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
