Item 1.01     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 31, 2018, American Woodmark Corporation, a Virginia corporation (the “Company”), and the guarantors named therein entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representative of the several initial purchasers named therein (the “Initial Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell to the initial purchasers $350 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) for resale to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company’s existing domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”).

The Purchase Agreement contains certain customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company and the Guarantors. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Guarantors have agreed to indemnify the Initial Purchasers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act or to contribute to payments the Initial Purchasers may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

The closing of the offering of the Notes is subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions contained in the Purchase Agreement and, as a result, there can be no assurance that the offering of the Notes will be completed.

The foregoing summary of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01    Other Events.

On January 31, 2018, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Notes offering. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The Notes are being offered solely to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities law and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale of any securities in any jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, such an offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.

Item 9.01     Financial Statements and Exhibits.
