NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
1. General
Unless this Form 10-Q indicates otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “Mohawk,” or “the Company” as used in this Form 10-Q refer to Mohawk Industries, Inc.
Interim Reporting
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and the Company’s description of critical accounting policies, included in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year.
Hedges of Net Investments in Non-U.S. Operations
The Company has numerous investments outside the United States. The net assets of these subsidiaries are exposed to changes and volatility in currency exchange rates. The Company uses foreign currency denominated debt to hedge its non-U.S. net investments against adverse movements in exchange rates. The gains and losses on the Company’s net investments in its non-U.S. operations are economically offset by losses and gains on its foreign currency borrowings. The Company designated its €500,000 2.00% Senior Notes borrowing as a net investment hedge of a portion of its European operations. For the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, the change in the U.S. dollar value of the Company’s euro denominated debt was a decrease of $27,047 ($20,694 net of taxes) and a decrease of $3,182 ($2,417 net of taxes), respectively, which is recorded in the foreign currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive income or (loss). The change in the U.S. dollar value of the Company’s debt partially offsets the euro-to-dollar translation of the Company’s net investment in its European operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes which simplified the accounting for income taxes in several areas by removing certain exceptions and by clarifying and amending existing guidance applicable to accounting for income taxes. The Company adopted the new standard on January 1, 2021. The effect of adopting the new standard was not material.

Costs to Obtain a Contract
The Company historically incurs certain incremental costs to obtain revenue contracts. These costs relate to marketing display structures and are capitalized when the amortization period is greater than one year, with the amount recorded in other assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Capitalized costs to obtain contracts were $54,544 and $59,847 as of April 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

11. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payments granted based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718-10. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the awards’ estimated lives for fixed awards with ratable vesting provisions.
The Company granted 173 restricted stock units ("RSUs") at a weighted average grant-date fair value of $175.12 per unit for the three months ended April 3, 2021. The Company granted 188 RSUs for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The Company recognized stock-based compensation costs related to the issuance of RSUs of $5,968 ($4,416 net of taxes) and $5,041 ($3,731 net of taxes) for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, respectively, which has been allocated to cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses. Pre-tax unrecognized compensation expense for unvested RSUs granted to employees, net of estimated forfeitures, was $35,778 as of April 3, 2021, and will be recognized as expense over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.04 years.

13. Income Taxes
For the quarter ended April 3, 2021, the Company recorded income tax expense of $67,690 on earnings before income taxes of $304,501 for an effective tax rate of 22.2%, as compared to an income tax expense of $26,668 on earnings before income taxes of $137,133, for an effective tax rate of 19.4% for the quarter ended March 28, 2020. The difference in the effective tax rates for the comparative periods was impacted by the Company's inability to use an estimated annual effective rate for the quarter ended March 28, 2020, and the geographical dispersion of profits and losses.
In accordance with ASC 740-270, Interim Reporting, at the end of each interim period, the Company is required to determine the best estimate of its annual effective tax rate and then apply that rate in providing for income taxes on an interim period. However, in certain circumstances where the Company is unable to make a reliable estimate of the annual effective tax rate, ASC 740-270 allows the actual effective tax rate for the interim period to be used. For the first quarter ended March 28, 2020, the Company calculated its effective rate for the interim period and applied that rate to the interim period results. The Company used this approach because it was unable to reasonably estimate its annual effective rate due to the variability of the rate as a result of small changes in forecasted income, fluctuations in annual pre-tax income and loss between quarters, and the effects of being taxed in multiple tax jurisdictions.

15. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share assumes the exercise of outstanding stock options and the vesting of RSUs using the treasury stock method when the effects of such assumptions are dilutive. A reconciliation of net earnings available to common stockholders and weighted-average common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

17. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved in litigation from time to time in the regular course of its business. Except as noted below, there are no material legal proceedings pending or known by the Company to be contemplated to which the Company is a party or to which any of its property is subject.
Perfluorinated Compounds (“PFCs”) Litigation
In September 2016, the Water Works and Sewer Board of the City of Gadsden, Alabama (the “Gadsden Water Board”) filed an individual complaint in the Circuit Court of Etowah County, Alabama against certain manufacturers, suppliers, and users of chemicals containing specific PFCs, including the Company. In May 2017, the Water Works and Sewer Board of the Town of Centre, Alabama (the “Centre Water Board”) filed a similar complaint in the Circuit Court of Cherokee County, Alabama. The Gadsden Water Board and the Centre Water Board both seek monetary damages and injunctive relief claiming that their water supplies contain excessive amounts of PFCs. Certain defendants, including the Company, filed dispositive motions in each case arguing that the Alabama state courts lack personal jurisdiction over them. These motions were denied. In June and September 2018, certain defendants, including the Company, petitioned the Alabama Supreme Court for Writs of Mandamus directing each lower court to enter an order granting the defendants’ dispositive motions on personal jurisdiction grounds. The Alabama Supreme Court denied the petitions on December 20, 2019. Certain defendants, including the Company, filed an Application for Rehearing with the Alabama Supreme Court asking the Court to reconsider its December 2019 decision. The Alabama Supreme Court denied the application for rehearing. On August 21, 2020, certain defendants, including the Company, petitioned the Supreme Court of the United States for review of the matter. On January 19, 2021, the Supreme Court denied the defendants’ petition for review.
In December 2019, the City of Rome, Georgia (“Rome”) filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Floyd County, Georgia that is similar to the Gadsden Water Board and Centre Water Board complaints, again seeking monetary damages and injunctive relief related to PFCs. Also in December 2019, Jarrod Johnson filed a putative class action in the Superior Court of Floyd County, Georgia purporting to represent all water subscribers with the Rome (Georgia) Water and Sewer Division and/or the Floyd County (Georgia) Water Department and seeking to recover, among other things, damages in the form of alleged increased rates and surcharges incurred by ratepayers for the costs associated with eliminating certain PFCs from their drinking water. In January 2020, defendant 3M Company removed the class action to federal court. The Company has filed motions to dismiss in both of these cases. On December 17, 2020, the Superior Court of Floyd County denied the Company’s motion to dismiss in the Rome case.
The Company denies all liability in these matters and intends to defend them vigorously.
Putative Securities Class Action
On January 3, 2020, the Company and certain of its executive officers were named as defendants in a putative shareholder class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia (the "Securities Class Action"). The complaint alleges that defendants violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by making materially false and misleading statements and that the officers are control persons under Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The complaint is filed on behalf of shareholders who purchased shares of the Company’s common stock between April 28, 2017 and July 25, 2019 (“Class Period”). On June 29, 2020, an amended complaint was filed in the Securities Class Action against Mohawk and its CEO Jeff Lorberbaum, based on the same claims and the same Class Period. The amended complaint alleges that the Company (1) engaged in fabricating revenues by attempting delivery to customers that were closed and recognizing these attempts as sales; (2) overproduced product to report higher operating margins and maintained significant inventory that was not salable; and (3) valued certain inventory improperly or improperly delivered inventory with knowledge that it was defective and customers would return it. On October 27, 2020, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the claims.

Government Subpoenas
As previously disclosed, on June 25, 2020, the Company received subpoenas issued by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Georgia (the “USAO”) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) relating to matters similar to the allegations of wrongdoing raised by the Securities Class Action. The Company’s Audit Committee, with the assistance of outside legal counsel, conducted a thorough internal investigation into these allegations. The Audit Committee has completed the investigation and concluded that the allegations of wrongdoing are without merit. The USAO and SEC investigations are ongoing, and the Company is cooperating fully with those authorities. The Company will continue to vigorously defend against the allegations of wrongdoing in the Securities Class Action and does not believe they have merit.
Delaware State Court Action
The Company and certain of its present and former executive officers were named as defendants in a putative state securities class action lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware on January 30, 2020. The complaint alleges that defendants violated Sections 11 and 12 of the Securities Act of 1933. The complaint is filed on behalf of shareholders who purchased shares of the Company’s common stock in Mohawk Industries Retirement Plan 1 and Mohawk Industries Retirement Plan 2 between April 27, 2017 and July 25, 2019. On March 27, 2020, the Court granted a temporary stay of the litigation pending the earlier of either the close of fact discovery or the deadline to appeal the dismissal of the related Securities Class Action pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. The stay may be lifted according to the terms set forth in the Court’s Order to Stay Litigation. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the claims.
Georgia State Court Investor Actions
The Company and certain of its present and former executive officers were named as defendants in certain investor actions, filed in the State Court of Fulton County of the State of Georgia on April 22, 2021 and April 23, 2021. Four complaints brought on behalf of purported former Mohawk stockholders each allege that defendants defrauded the respective plaintiffs through false or misleading statements and thereby induced plaintiffs to purchase Company stock at artificially inflated prices. The allegations are similar to those of the Securities Class Action pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. The claims alleged include fraud, negligent misrepresentation, violations of the Georgia Securities Act, and violations of the Georgia Racketeering and Corrupt Organizations statute. Plaintiffs in the investor actions seek compensatory and punitive damages. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the claims.
Derivative Actions
The Company and certain of its executive officers and directors were named as defendants in certain derivative actions filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia on May 18, 2020 and August 6, 2020, respectively (the “NDGA Derivative Actions”), and in the Superior Court of Gordon County of the State of Georgia on March 3, 2021 (the “Georgia Derivative Action”). The complaints allege that defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Company by causing the Company to issue materially false and misleading statements. The complaints are filed on behalf of the Company and seek to remedy fiduciary duty breaches occurring from April 28, 2017 – July 25, 2019. On July 20, 2020, the court in the NDGA Derivative Actions granted a temporary stay of the litigation. Other shareholders of record have jointly moved to intervene in the derivative actions to stay the proceedings. The court in the NDGA Derivative Actions has not yet ruled on the motion to intervene. On October 21, 2020, the court entered an order consolidating the NDGA Derivative Actions and appointing Lead Counsel. The consolidated NDGA Derivative Actions will remain stayed pending the earlier of either the Securities Class Action defendants filing an answer to the operative complaint or the deadline to appeal the dismissal of the Securities Class Action. On April 8, 2021, the court in the Georgia Derivative Action granted a temporary stay of the litigation. The Georgia Derivative Action will likewise remain stayed pending the earlier of either the Securities Class Action defendants filing an answer to the operative complaint or the deadline to appeal the dismissal of the Securities Class Action. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the claims.

Belgian Tax Matter
Between 2012 and 2014, the Company received assessments from the Belgian tax authority for the calendar years 2005 through 2010 in the amounts of €46,135, €38,817, €39,635, €30,131, €25,486 and €43,117 respectively, including penalties, but excluding interest. The Belgian tax authority denied the Company’s formal protests against these assessments and the Company brought all six years before the Court of First Appeal in Bruges. The Court of First Appeal in Bruges ruled in favor of the Company on January 27, 2016, with respect to the calendar years ending December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2009; and on June 13, 2018, the Court of First Appeal in Bruges ruled in favor of the Company with respect to the calendar years ending December 31, 2006, December 31, 2007, December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2010. The Belgian tax authority has lodged its Notification of Appeal for all six years with the Ghent Court of Appeal. On September 17, 2019, the Company pled its case to the Ghent Court of Special (Tax) Appeals and on October 1, 2019, the court ruled in favor of the Company, re-confirming the rulings of the Court of First Appeals in Bruges with respect to the calendar years ending December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2009. On March 12, 2020, the Belgian tax authority filed another revised assessment for the calendar year ending December 31, 2009, with the Ghent Court.
In March 2019, the Company received assessments from the Belgian tax authority for tax years 2011 through 2017 which were, as a result of the positive ruling of the Ghent Court of Appeal, cancelled in January 2020.
On March 10, 2020, a new notice of change was received for the year ending December 31, 2016, resulting in a tax assessment in the amount of €67,959, including penalties, but excluding interest, against which the Company filed a protest on April 10, 2020. On December 22, 2020, a tax assessment for the year ending December 31, 2017, was received in the amount of €17,655, including penalties, but excluding interest, against which the Company will file a protest in 2021. These notices of change/tax assessments from the Belgian tax authority represent a change in position in which it intends to apply new rules applicable as of 2018 to the Company's open tax years going back to 2009.
On October 22, 2020, a notice of change was received by the Company’s licensing subsidiary in Luxembourg, against which the Company filed a protest. The notice covers the years ending December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2018 and is based on the same facts underlying the original actions that were unsuccessfully tried and appealed by the Belgian government. In December 2020, the Company received assessments for the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2017, in the amount of €45,466 and €65,152, respectively, including penalties, but excluding interest, against which the company filed a protest in 2021. In view of the allegations made against the Company’s licensing subsidiary in Luxembourg, the tax assessment received in the amount of €67,959 for the year ending December 31, 2016, was cancelled on January 27, 2021.
The Company continues to disagree with the views of the Belgian tax authority on all matters referenced above and will persist in its vigorous defense. Nevertheless, on May 24, 2016, the tax collector representing the Belgian tax authorities imposed a lien on the Company’s properties in Wielsbeke (Ooigemstraat and Breestraat), Oostrozebeke (Ingelmunstersteenweg) and Desselgem (Waregemstraat) included in the Flooring ROW segment. The purpose of the lien is to provide security for payment should the Belgian tax authority prevail on its appeal. The lien does not interfere with the Company’s operations at these properties.
General
The Company believes that adequate provisions for resolution of all contingencies, claims and pending litigation have been made for probable losses that are reasonably estimable. These contingencies are subject to significant uncertainties and the Company is unable to estimate the amount or range of loss, if any, in excess of amounts accrued. The Company does not believe that the ultimate outcome of these actions will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition but could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, cash flows or liquidity in a given quarter or year.
The Company is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental health and safety laws and regulations, including those governing air emissions, wastewater discharges, the use, storage, treatment, recycling and disposal of solid and hazardous materials and finished product, and the cleanup of contamination associated therewith. Because of the nature of the Company’s business, the Company has incurred, and will continue to incur, costs relating to compliance with such laws and regulations. The Company is involved in various proceedings relating to environmental matters and is currently engaged in environmental investigation, remediation and post-closure care programs at certain sites. The Company has provided accruals for such activities that it has determined to be both probable and reasonably estimable. The Company does not expect that the ultimate liability with respect to such activities will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition but could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, cash flows or liquidity in a given quarter or year.

18. Debt
Senior Credit Facility
On October 18, 2019, the Company amended and restated its $1,800,000 senior credit facility, extending the maturity from March 26, 2022 to October 18, 2024 (as amended and restated, the “Senior Credit Facility”). The Senior Credit Facility marginally reduced the commitment fee and modified certain negative covenants to provide the Company with additional flexibility, including flexibility to make acquisitions and incur additional indebtedness. The restatement also renewed the Company’s option to extend the maturity of the Senior Credit Facility up to two times for an additional one-year period each.
At the Company’s election, revolving loans under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest at annual rates equal to either (a) LIBOR for 1, 2, 3 or 6 month periods, as selected by the Company, plus an applicable margin ranging between 1.00% and 1.75% (1.125% as of April 3, 2021), or (b) the higher of the Wells Fargo Bank, National Association prime rate, the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5%, or the Eurocurrency Rate (as defined in the Senior Credit Facility) rate plus 1.0%, plus an applicable margin ranging between 0.00% and 0.75% (0.125% as of April 3, 2021). The Company also pays a commitment fee to the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility on the average amount by which the aggregate commitments of the lenders exceed utilization of the Senior Credit Facility ranging from 0.09% to 0.20% per annum (0.11% as of April 3, 2021). The applicable margins and the commitment fee are determined based on whichever of the Company’s Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio or its senior unsecured debt rating (or if not available, corporate family rating) results in the lower applicable margins and commitment fee (with applicable margins and the commitment fee increasing as that ratio increases or those ratings decline, as applicable).
The obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries in respect of the Senior Credit Facility are unsecured.
The Senior Credit Facility includes certain affirmative and negative covenants that impose restrictions on the Company’s financial and business operations, including limitations on liens, subsidiary indebtedness, fundamental changes, asset dispositions, dividends and other similar restricted payments, transactions with affiliates, future negative pledges, and changes in the nature of the Company’s business. The limitations contain customary exceptions or, in certain cases, do not apply as long as the Company is in compliance with the financial ratio requirements and is not otherwise in default. The Senior Credit Facility originally required the Company to maintain a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of at least 3.00 to 1.00 and a Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio of no more than 3.75 to 1.00, each as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. However, on May 7, 2020 the Company amended the Senior Credit Facility to temporarily increase the minimum Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio to 4.75 to 1.00 and to increase the amount of certain adjustments to Net Income that are permitted to calculate the ratio. The relief provided by the amendment is in effect for the fiscal quarters ending on September 26, 2020 through (and including) the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021.
The Senior Credit Facility also contains customary representations and warranties and events of default, subject to customary grace periods.
In 2019, the Company paid financing costs of $2,264 in connection with the amendment and restatement of its Senior Credit Facility. These costs were deferred and, along with previously unamortized costs of $3,405 are being amortized over the term of the Senior Credit Facility.
As of April 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, amounts utilized under the Senior Credit Facility included zero borrowings and $787 of standby letters of credit related to various insurance contracts and foreign vendor commitments. The outstanding borrowings of $2,940 under the Company's U.S. and European commercial paper programs as of April 3, 2021 reduce the availability of the Senior Credit Facility. Including commercial paper borrowings, the Company has utilized $3,727 under the Senior Credit Facility resulting in a total of $1,796,273 available as of April 3, 2021.
Commercial Paper
On February 28, 2014 and July 31, 2015, the Company established programs for the issuance of unsecured commercial paper in the United States and Eurozone capital markets, respectively. Commercial paper issued under the U.S. and European programs will have maturities ranging up to 397 and 183 days, respectively. None of the commercial paper notes may be voluntarily prepaid or redeemed by the Company and all rank pari passu with all of the Company’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. To the extent that the Company issues European commercial paper notes through a subsidiary of the Company, the notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
The Company uses its Senior Credit Facility as a liquidity backstop for its commercial paper programs. Accordingly, the total amount outstanding under all of the Company’s commercial paper programs may not exceed $1,800,000 (less any amounts drawn on the Senior Credit Facility) at any time.
The proceeds from the issuance of commercial paper notes will be available for general corporate purposes. As of April 3, 2021, there was zero outstanding under the U.S. commercial paper program and the euro equivalent of $2,940 outstanding under the European program. As of December 31, 2020, there was zero outstanding under the both programs. As of April 3, 2021, the weighted-average interest rate and maturity period for the European program were (0.4)% and 13.00 days, respectively.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
During the past two decades, the Company has grown significantly. Its current geographic breadth and diverse product offering are reflected in three reporting segments: Global Ceramic; Flooring NA; and Flooring ROW. The Global Ceramic Segment designs, manufactures, sources and markets a broad line of ceramic tile, porcelain tile, natural stone tile and other products including natural stone, quartz and porcelain slab countertops, which it distributes primarily in North America, Europe, Brazil and Russia through various selling channels, which include company-owned stores, independent distributors and home centers. The Flooring NA Segment designs, manufactures, sources and markets its floor covering products, including broadloom carpet, carpet tile, rugs, carpet cushion, laminate and vinyl products, including luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and sheet vinyl, and wood flooring, all of which it distributes through its network of regional distribution centers and satellite warehouses using Company-operated trucks, common carriers or rail transportation. The Segment’s product lines are sold through various channels, including independent floor covering retailers, independent distributors, home centers, mass merchandisers, department stores, shop at home, online retailers, buying groups, commercial contractors and commercial end users. The Flooring ROW Segment designs, manufactures, sources, licenses and markets laminate, vinyl products, including LVT and sheet vinyl, wood flooring, roofing panels, insulation boards, medium-density fiberboard (“MDF”) and chipboards, which it distributes primarily in Europe, Russia, Australia and New Zealand through various channels, including independent floor covering retailers, independent distributors, company-owned distributors, home centers, commercial contractors and commercial end users.
Mohawk is a significant supplier of every major flooring category with manufacturing operations in 18 nations and sales in more than 170 countries. Based on its annual sales, the Company believes it is the world’s largest flooring manufacturer. A majority of the Company’s long-lived assets are located in the United States and Europe, which are also the Company’s primary markets. Additionally, the Company maintains operations in the United Kingdom, Russia, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil and other parts of the world. The Company is a leading provider of flooring for residential and commercial markets and has earned significant recognition for its innovation in design and performance as well as sustainability.
Due to its global footprint, Mohawk’s business is sensitive to macroeconomic events in the United States and abroad. The Company's markets and operations around the world continue to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. While the near-term economic and financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is improving in its residential markets, the Company expects that fluctuating demand may continue across a number of its markets. During 2020, the Company completed actions prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic to enhance future performance including site closings, other facility and product rationalizations and workforce reductions. The Company anticipates these global actions are on target to deliver savings of approximately $100 to $110 million of which approximately $75 million was realized in 2020 and the first quarter of 2021, with costs of approximately $160 million in 2020 and the first quarter of 2021.
For the three months ended April 3, 2021, net earnings attributable to the Company were $236.8 million, or diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $3.36, compared to net earnings attributable to the Company of $110.5 million, or diluted EPS of $1.54 for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The change in EPS was primarily attributable to the favorable net impact of higher volumes, productivity gains, the favorable net impact of price and product mix, the favorable impact due to fewer short-term manufacturing disruptions and the favorable net impact from foreign exchange rates, partially offset by higher inflation costs. The Company's operations and net earnings for the first quarter of 2021 did not reflect normal seasonality, and the Company's operations and net earnings for the first quarter of 2020 were affected by broader economic issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, the Company experienced decreasing demand towards the end of the first quarter of 2020 and increased costs associated with short-term reductions in manufacturing output. The Company expects the COVID-19 pandemic to continue to impact normal seasonality trends in 2021, but the extent and duration of such impact cannot be predicted.
For the three months ended April 3, 2021, the Company generated $259.6 million of cash from operating activities. As of April 3, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $557.3 million, of which $205.8 million was in the United States and $351.4 million was in foreign countries, in addition to $782.3 million in short-term investments.

The increase was primarily attributable to higher volumes of approximately $156 million, the favorable impact from extra shipping days in the first quarter of 2021 of approximately $111 million, the favorable net impact from foreign exchange rates of approximately $64 million and the favorable net impact of price and product mix of approximately $52 million. The Company's net sales for the first quarter of 2021 did not reflect normal seasonality, and the first quarter of 2020 net sales were affected by broader economic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, the Company experienced decreasing demand towards the end of the first quarter of 2020.
Global Ceramic segment—Net sales increased $81.4 million, or 9.6%, to $929.9 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021, compared to $848.5 million for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to the favorable impact from extra shipping days in the first quarter of 2021 of approximately $34 million, higher volumes of approximately $23 million and the favorable net impact of price and product mix of approximately $23 million.
Flooring NA segment—Net sales increased $121.0 million, or 14.3%, to $969.3 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021, compared to $848.3 million for the three months ended March 28, 2020.

Flooring ROW segment—Net sales increased $180.9 million, or 30.7%, to $769.9 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021, compared to $589.0 million for the three months ended March 28, 2020.

As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased 270 basis points. The increase in gross profit dollars was primarily attributable to higher volumes of approximately $86 million, productivity gains of approximately $42 million, the favorable net impact of price and product mix of approximately $29 million, the favorable net impact from foreign exchange rates of approximately $16 million and the favorable impact of approximately $16 million due to fewer short-term manufacturing disruptions, partially offset by higher inflation of approximately $15 million. As previously discussed, the Company's operations for the first quarter of 2021 did not reflect normal seasonality, and 2020 was affected by broader economic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, the Company experienced decreasing demand towards the end of the first quarter of 2020.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended April 3, 2021 were $474.3 million (17.8% of net sales), an increase of $9.3 million compared to $465.0 million (20.3% of net sales) for the three months ended March 28, 2020. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 250 basis points. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in dollars was primarily attributable to higher inflation of approximately $10 million, the unfavorable net impact from foreign exchange rates of approximately $9 million and higher volumes of approximately $7 million, partially offset by productivity gains of approximately $14 million and the lower costs associated with investments in new product development and marketing costs of $3 million.
Operating income
Operating income for the three months ended April 3, 2021 was $317.5 million (11.9% of net sales) reflecting an increase of $166.0 million, or 109.6%, compared to operating income of $151.5 million (6.6% of net sales) for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to higher volumes of $79 million, approximately $56 million of productivity gains, the favorable net impact of price and product mix of approximately $29 million, the favorable impact of approximately $16 million due to fewer short-term manufacturing disruptions and the favorable net impact from foreign exchange rates of approximately $7 million, partially offset by higher inflation of approximately $25 million.
Global Ceramic segment—Operating income was $87.8 million (9.4% of segment net sales) for the three months ended April 3, 2021 reflecting an increase of $39.8 million compared to operating income of $48.0 million (5.7% of segment net sales) for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to productivity gains of approximately $20 million, the favorable net impact of price and product mix of approximately $11 million, higher volumes of approximately $9 million and the favorable impact of approximately $7 million due to fewer short-term manufacturing disruptions, partially offset by higher inflation of approximately $9 million.
Flooring NA segment—Operating income was $81.3 million (8.4% of segment net sales) for the three months ended April 3, 2021 reflecting an increase of $45.1 million compared to operating income of $36.2 million (4.3% of segment net sales) for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to the higher volumes of approximately $28 million and productivity gains of approximately $23 million, partially offset by higher inflation of approximately $8 million.
Flooring ROW segment—Operating income was $159.3 million (20.7% of segment net sales) for the three months ended April 3, 2021 reflecting an increase of $83.5 million compared to operating income of $75.8 million (12.9% of segment net sales) for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to higher volumes of $42 million, the favorable net impact of price and product mix of approximately $19 million, productivity gains of approximately $13 million and the favorable net impact of foreign exchange rates of approximately $9 million, partially offset by higher inflation of approximately $5 million.
Interest expense
Interest expense was $15.2 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021, reflecting an increase of $6.5 million compared to interest expense of $8.7 million for the three months ended March 28, 2020. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company issued new long-term debt to strengthen its liquidity position during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. The new debt issuance shifted the Company from a mix of fixed and floating rate debt, with a lower average interest rate, to more fixed rate debt, which carries a higher average interest rate.
Other expense (income), net
Other income, net was $2.2 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021, reflecting a favorable change of $7.9 million compared to other expense, net of $5.7 million for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The change was primarily attributable to the favorable net impact of foreign exchange rates and other miscellaneous items.
Income tax expense
For the three months ended April 3, 2021, the Company recorded income tax expense of $67.7 million on earnings before income taxes of $304.5 million, for an effective tax rate of 22.2%, as compared to an income tax expense of $26.7 million on earnings before income taxes of $137.1 million, for an effective tax rate of 19.4% for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The difference in the effective tax rates for the comparative periods was impacted by the Company's inability to use an estimated annual effective rate for the quarter ended March 28, 2020 and the geographical dispersion of profits and losses.
In accordance with ASC 740-270, Interim Reporting, at the end of each interim period, the Company is required to determine the best estimate of its annual effective tax rate and then apply that rate in providing for income taxes on an interim period. However, in certain circumstances where the Company is unable to make a reliable estimate of the annual effective tax rate, ASC 740-270 allows the actual effective tax rate for the interim period to be used. For the first quarter ended March 28, 2020, the Company calculated its effective rate for the interim period and applied that rate to the interim period results. The Company used this approach because it was unable to reasonably estimate its annual effective rate due to the variability of the rate as a result of small changes in forecasted income, fluctuations in annual pre-tax income and loss between quarters, and the effects of being taxed in multiple tax jurisdictions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s primary capital requirements are for working capital, capital expenditures and acquisitions. The Company’s capital needs are met primarily through a combination of internally generated funds, commercial paper, bank credit lines, term and senior notes and credit terms from suppliers.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the first three months of 2021 was $259.6 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $195.0 million in the first three months of 2020. The increase of $64.6 million in 2021 was primarily attributable to higher net earnings partially offset by changes in working capital.
Net cash used in investing activities in the first three months of 2021 was $333.3 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $133.4 million in the first three months of 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the purchases of short term investments of $194.4 million (net of redemption of short-term investments).
Net cash used in financing activities in the first three months of 2021 was $120.2 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $87.2 million in the three months of 2020. The cash used in financing activities is primarily attributable to the lower proceeds from the Senior Credit Facility of $547.7 million (net of repayments of $65.6 million), the lower net proceeds on commercial paper of $387.8 million and more share repurchases of $54.2 million.
As of April 3, 2021, the Company had cash of $557.3 million, of which $351.4 million was held outside the United States. The Company plans to permanently reinvest the cash held outside the United States. In addition to its cash on hand, the Company also had short-term investments of $782.3 million as of April 3, 2021. The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash generated from operations and availability under its existing credit facilities will be sufficient to meet its capital expenditure, working capital and debt servicing requirements over at least the next twelve months. The Company continually evaluates its projected needs and may conduct additional debt financings, subject to market conditions, to increase its liquidity and to take advantage of attractive financing opportunities.
On October 26, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program, authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $500 million of its common stock. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company has purchased an aggregate of $122.9 million under the share repurchase program. As of April 3, 2021, there remains $314.3 million authorized under the program.
See Note 18. Debt, of the notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further discussion of the Company’s long-term debt. The Company may continue, from time to time, to retire its outstanding debt through cash purchases in the open market, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, the Company’s liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amount involved may be material.
Contractual Obligations
There have been no significant changes to the Company’s contractual obligations as disclosed in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K except as described herein.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Impact of Inflation
Inflation affects the Company’s manufacturing costs, distribution costs and operating expenses. The Company expects raw material prices, many of which are petroleum based, to fluctuate based upon worldwide supply and demand of commodities utilized in the Company’s production processes. Although the Company attempts to pass on increases in raw material, energy and fuel-related costs to its customers, the Company’s ability to do so is dependent upon the rate and magnitude of any increase, competitive pressures and market conditions for the Company’s products. There have been in the past, and may be in the future, periods of time during which increases in these costs cannot be fully recovered. In the past, the Company has often been able to enhance productivity and develop new product innovations to help offset increases in costs resulting from inflation in its operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of April 3, 2021.
Seasonality
The Company is a calendar year-end company. With respect to its Global Ceramic segment, the second quarter typically sees highest net sales, followed by the third and fourth quarters while the first quarter shows weakest net sales. For the segment’s operating income, generally, the second quarter shows the strongest earnings, followed by third and first quarters, and the fourth quarter shows weakest earnings. The Flooring NA segment’s third quarter typically produces the highest net sales and earnings followed by moderate second and fourth quarters, and a weakest first quarter. The Flooring ROW segment’s fourth quarter typically produces the highest net sales followed by moderate third and second quarters, and a weakest first quarter. For the segment’s operating income, generally, the second quarter shows the strongest earnings, followed by third and first quarters, and the fourth quarter shows weakest earnings.
The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility in the global economy that has led to unpredictable economic activity and impacted the supply chain for raw materials and sourced finished goods. The Company expects the COVID-19 pandemic to continue to impact normal seasonality trends into 2021, but the extent and duration of such impact cannot be predicted. As such, the seasonality of the Company's 2021 results may also differ from historical experience.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As of April 3, 2021, approximately 87% of the Company’s debt portfolio was comprised of fixed-rate debt and 13% was floating-rate debt. A 1.0 percentage point increase in the interest rate of the floating-rate debt would have resulted in an increase in interest expense of $0.9 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021.
There have been no significant changes to the Company’s exposure to market risk as disclosed in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K.
