ITEM 8.01. Other Events.

 

On November 5, 2022, PGT Innovations, Inc. (the “Company”) detected a ransomware infection that impacted portions of its network and caused disruption to daily business operations. Immediately, upon discovery, the Company engaged outside cybersecurity experts familiar with these types of incidents to conduct a forensic investigation and assess the extent and scope of the incident. This investigation is in its early stages and ongoing. To date, there is no evidence of personal information being accessed or acquired.

 

Security is a top priority for the Company, and the Company continues to work to take a series of measures to safeguard the integrity of its information technology systems. Upon detecting the security event, the Company took immediate steps designed to contain the incident and implement its business continuity plans to restore and support continued operations. The Company has notified appropriate law enforcement authorities.

 

The Company is also working closely with cybersecurity experts and legal counsel. The Company is in the early stages of its investigation and assessment of the security event and cannot determine, at this time, the extent of the impact from such event on its business, results of operations or financial condition or whether such impact will have a material adverse effect. The Company carries insurance, including cyber insurance, commensurate with the size and the nature of its operations. Further, while the Company is communicating with its customers regarding this disruption, it cannot guarantee that its customer relationships will not be harmed as a result of this event. In addition to these risks and other information set forth in this report, one should carefully consider the discussion on the other risks and uncertainties that cybersecurity incidents may have on us, contained in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended January 1, 2022.
