11 Recovery Scenarios Over Time – Primary Non-Res Markets 600,000 800,000 1,000,000 1,200,000 1,400,000 1,600,000 1,800,000 2007: 4 2008: 3 2009: 2 20 1 0: 1 2010: 4 2011: 3 2012: 2 20 1 3: 1 2013: 4 2014: 3 2015: 2 2016: 1  Dodge analytics projects acceleration of non-residential starts in second half of fiscal 2013 & continuing through 2016.  Recent strength of residential sector lends support for near- term non-residential recovery scenario.  Dodge long term growth projections tend toward optimism and are generally revised downward with each successive forecast by approximately 10%. 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 sq ft in 000’s 2012* 2009* 2011* 2013* 2010* Key: * year of forecast Immediacy and amplitude of recovery continues to be recast unfavorably, but projected recovery still very significant, reaching 75% of peak from just under 50% today.


 
12 US Construction Starts - End Market Growth Rates & Peak 31% 22% 20% 18% 17% 16% 16% 13% 13% 6% 4% 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 30% 35% 63% 82% 65% 74% 75% 70% 68% 63% 89% 86% 63% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100% Forecast 2014-2016 CAGR (Sq Ft starts) Forecast 2016 Sq Ft starts as a % of peak: Non-Res (2007), Residential (2006) starts Dodge analytics projects strong recovery in square footage of non-residential starts over next three years… …however, even after three consecutive years of double-digit growth, absolute level of construction starts just 75% of peak.


 
13 Atkore…Market Growth Growth Prospects in Non-Res Construction Global Pipe Tube and Conduit  Office and commercial sectors largest end-use markets; mechanical tube acts to lessen dependence on construction; fence framework growth acts as drag  3rd party modeling suggest 6% CAGR for electrical conduit Global Cable and Cable Management  Healthcare, schools and hotels largest end-use markets, lower CAGRs versus commercial sector  Multi-family 2014-16 CAGR ~ 4% (already experiencing strong growth)  Growth estimates driven by heavy concentration of business in Manufacturing and Healthcare segments  Slow growth in Commercial Buildings depresses overall growth Growth rates are a factor of differentiated end market applications and timing in the cycle.


 
14 Rationale for PVC Acquisition  Compliments Atkore market franchise and enhances Atkore bundling program  PVC conduit is a direct substitute for Steel Conduit and Armored cable. But growing at 13% (faster than steel and A/C). PVC is a lower cost solution (material & labor), favored where code permits  PVC has the same agent and distribution channel, but products are earlier in the cycle (PVC preferred for underground in the slab)  Continuing consolidation of resin suppliers since the 1980’s (22 suppliers) now stable at 5 suppliers.  Coupled with Brazil divestiture, reduces steel in the Atkore commodity mix.


 
15 Why Heritage/Liberty Plastics  PVC market growth potential Atkore’s current regional presence with PVC Broadens our existing PVC offering Complements our core steel conduit offering Together, become a leader in PVC marketplace  Strong company performance  Highly experienced Heritage Plastics team  Strategic locations Carrollton-OH, Tampa-FL, Louisville-KY , Weatherford-TX, Milford-UT  Quality products with timely delivery  Long-term customer relationships  Similar end markets  Loyal, dependable and dedicated employees 311 employees
