Business Overview

The aviation and aerospace industries as well as markets for the Company’s consumer products continually face evolving challenges on a global basis. The operations of the Company can be affected by the trends of the economy, including interest rates, income tax laws, government regulation, legislation, and other factors. In addition, uncertainties in today’s global economy, competition from expanding manufacturing capabilities and technical sophistication of low-cost developing countries and emerging markets, currency policies in relation to the U.S. dollar of some major foreign exporting countries, the effect of terrorism, difficulty in predicting defense and other government appropriations, the vitality of the commercial aviation industry and its ability to purchase new aircraft, the willingness and ability of the Company’s customers to fund long-term purchase programs, volatile market demand and the continued market acceptance of the Company’s advanced technology and cutlery products make it difficult to predict the impact on future financial results.

Both the ATG and CPG markets are sensitive to domestic and foreign economic conditions and policies, which may create volatility in operating results from period to period. For example, the airline industry is sensitive to fuel price increases and economic conditions. These factors directly impact the demand for aircraft production as well as the amount of repair and overhaul required on in-service aircraft.

Government procurements are subject to Congressional appropriations and priorities that may change from year to year. Such changes could result in, but are not limited to, the expansion and/or contraction of Government procurement requirements, a reduction in funding, the continuation or termination of existing programs, the introduction of new programs requiring the funds that were originally directed to current programs, a stretch-out in Government delivery requirements or such other U.S. Government determinations that could result in increases or reductions of Government purchase orders for the ATG and/or the CPG products.

The Company’s suppliers are also subject to all the pressures and volatility being generated by the current global economic conditions. Any interruption of the Company’s continuous flow of material and product parts that are required for the manufacture of the Company’s products could adversely impact the Company’s ability to meet the Company’s customers’ delivery requirements. Consistent with the evolving requirements of the Aerospace Industry,aerospace industry, companies are increasingly being requested to operate under Long-Term Agreementslong-term agreements with their Customerscustomers on the basis of fixed prices, targeted year to year price reductions and/or year to year price adjustments predicated on mutually agreed indices and/or a combination of some or all of the above described pricing arrangements and/or otherwise. Therefore, productivity improvements and cost containment strategies are continuously sought within the Company’s concept of continuous improvement. The Company’s products are labor intensive and as such productivity improvements are expected to have positive effects on the Company’s operating results. However, increased costs for raw material, purchased parts and/or labor will have the reverse effect. Therefore, there are strong incentives to continuously improve productivity and to contain/reduce costs.

If any adverse economic events reduce the number of Airliners and/or Aircraft being produced by the Company’s relevant prime contractors, the negative effects of that reduction will in turn flow down through the supply chain. Also, certain major manufacturers have successfully imposed extended payment terms to their suppliers. At times, these extended payment terms are not available to the Company when purchasing raw material such as aluminum, magnetic material, steel and/or other product support items and services. If the Company’s customers delay their payments until after the extended due date or fail to pay, it could adversely impact the Company’s operating results.

Maximizing the Company’s operations requires continued dedicated performances from the Company’s key and other personnel. In the Company’s markets and business arenas there is substantial competition for the services of the highest performing individuals. Competitors, customers and other companies who may have interest in the Company’s most experienced and educated/highly trained personnel (i.e., Managerial, Engineeringmanagerial, engineering and Accounting/Administrative)accounting/administrative) are a continuing consequence of the Company’s history of successful operational performance. Any unplanned replacement of such personnel may require the hiring of new personnel on an expedited basis (provided they are available) and may temporarily interrupt the Company’s operations and efforts for continuous improvement.

Management Discussion

During the years ended December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, approximately 11 %88% and 9%85%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated revenues were derived from contracts with agenciesthe ATG sale of product to a small base of customers. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, approximately 12% and 15% of the U.S. Government or their prime contractors and their subcontractors. Sales of products sold for government applications increased approximately $1,230,000 and $649,000Company’s consolidated revenues were derived from the prior year during 2017 and 2016, respectively, dueCPG sale of product to increased governmenta large base of retail customers. There was an increase in 2019 from 2018 of approximately $8,104,000 in shipments at both the ATG and CPG. The Company believes that government involvementa decrease of approximately $689,000 in military operations overseas will continue to have an impact onshipments at the financial results in both the Advanced Technology and Consumer Products markets. While the Company is optimistic in relation to these potential opportunities, it recognizes that sales to the government are affected by defense budgets, the foreign policies of the U.S. and other nations, the level of military operations and other factors, as such, it is difficult to predict the impact on future financial results.

CPG.

The Company’s commercial business is affected by such factors as uncertainties in today’s global economy, global competition, the vitality and ability of the commercial aviation industry to purchase new aircraft, the effects and threats of terrorism, market demand and acceptance both for the Company’s products and its customers’ products which incorporate Company made components.

The ATG engages its business development efforts in its primary markets and is broadening its activities to include new domestic and foreign markets that are consistent with its core competencies. We believe our business remains particularly well positioned in the strong commercial aircraft market driven by the replacement of older aircraft with more fuel efficient alternatives and the increasing demand for air travel in emerging markets. Although the ATG backlog continues to be strong, actual scheduled shipments may be delayed/changed as a function of the Company’s customers’ final delivery determinations based on changes in the global economy and other factors.

The CPG continues to diversify its revenue streams with a broader government focus and new commercial channels, including the addition of national retailers, international accounts, and a direct-to-consumer business line, in response to recent and ongoing reductions in military spending. The CPG is also actively growing its custom manufacturing business to provide a wide range of metal and plastic fabrication services to a variety of consumer and industrial companies. New product development is focused on the commercialization of products with applications that span government and civilian requirements to maximize demand or that open up new lines of business entirely.

The ATG and CPG continue to respond to U.S. government procurement requests for quotes. New product development activities are ongoing along with the acquisition and development of new product lines.

See also Note 11, Business Segments, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information concerning business segment operating results.

In 2020, we will continue to execute our long-term strategy as we align and focus our resources to increase growth and profitability while addressing known and unknown factors in an ever-changing global environment.

Impact of COVID-19 Outbreak

Subsequent to year-end 2019, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a public health emergency. There have been mandates from international, federal, state and local authorities requiring forced closures of various schools, businesses and other facilities and organizations. While the closures and limitations on movement, domestically and internationally, are expected to be temporary, if the outbreak continues on its current trajectory the duration of the supply chain disruption could reduce the availability, or result in delays, of materials or supplies to or from the Company, which in turn could materially interrupt the Company’s business operations. Given the speed and frequency of continuously evolving developments with respect to this pandemic, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the magnitude of the impact to its results of operations.

Aircraft Liability Insurance

We are required to maintain certain levels of aircraft liability insurance pursuant to our long-term agreements with customers. In 2020, our aircraft liability insurance increased by approximately $1,272,000. If we cannot offset this expense increase with cost savings or productivity improvements this could negatively impact our gross margin percent by approximately 2.5% based on 2019 revenues.

The improvement is slightlyinventory, an increase in indirect labor, employee benefits, transportation and tooling, offset by the ATG increase of cost of goods soldoverhead liquidation. The 14.8% decrease in gross margin as a percentage of CPG revenue from 70.6%is primarily attributed to 71.2%.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.

The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to approximately $154,000$337,000 at December 31, 20172019 and $77,000$170,000 at December 31, 2016.2018. The Company does not accrue interest on past due receivables.

The note was with a third party with the intent to develop a business venture. As of October 21, 2019, the note receivable plus an additional $18,000 was converted to capitalized tooling and owned by the CPG. The total capitalized tooling is approximately $143,000.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized as services are rendered or as units are shipped and at the designated FOB point consistent with thetime of shipment of goods, transfer of title risks and rewardscustomer acceptance, as required. Our revenue transactions generally consist of ownership. Such purchasea single performance obligation to transfer contracted goods and are not accounted for under industry-specific guidance. Purchase orders generally include specific terms relative to quantity, item description, specifications, price, customer responsibility for in-process costs, delivery schedule, shipping point, payment and other standard terms and conditions of purchase. Service sales, principally representing repair, are recognized at the time of shipment of goods.

The costs incurred for nonrecurring engineering, development and repair activities of our products under agreements with commercial customers are expensed as incurred. Subsequently, the revenue is recognized as products are delivered to the customers with the approval by the customers.

Revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods and services to a customer. The Company determines revenue recognition using the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revenue excludes taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from a customer (e.g., sales and use taxes). Revenue includes payments for shipping activities that are reimbursed by the customer to the Company.

Performance obligations are satisfied as of a point in time. Performance obligations are supported by contracts with customers, providing a framework for the nature of the distinct goods, services or bundle of goods and services. The timing of satisfying the performance obligation is typically indicated by the terms of the contract. As a significant portion of the Company’s revenue are recognized at the time of shipment, transfer of title and customer acceptance, there is no significant judgment applied to determine the timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations or transaction price.

The timing of satisfaction of our performance obligations does not significantly vary from the typical timing of payment. The Company generally receives payment for these contracts within the payment terms negotiated and agreed upon by each customer contract.

Warranty and repair obligations are assessed on all returns. Revenue is not recorded on any warranty returns. The Company warrants its products against design, materials and workmanship based on an average of twenty-seven months. The Company determines warranty reserves needed based on actual average costs of warranty units shipped and current facts and circumstances. As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 under the guidance of ASC460 the Company has recorded a warranty reserve of approximately $420,000 and $428,000, respectively. This amount is reflected in other accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet. Revenue is recognized on repair returns, covered under a customer contract, at the contractual price upon shipment to the customer.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost includes all costs incurred to bring each product to its present location and condition. Market provisions in respect of lower of cost or market adjustments and inventory expected to be used in greater than onetwo year are applied to the gross value of the inventory through a reserve of approximately $1,601,000$1,437,000 and $1,513,000$1,543,000 at December 31, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost; expenditures for new facilities and equipment and expenditures which substantially increase the useful lives of existing plant and equipment are capitalized; expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Upon disposal of properties, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any profit or loss on disposition is included in income.

Depreciation is provided on the basis of estimated useful lives of depreciable properties, primarily by the straight-line method for financial statement purposes and by accelerated methods for tax purposes. Depreciation expense includes the amortization of capital lease assets. The estimated useful lives of depreciable properties are generally as follows:

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, as well as operating loss and credit carryforwards. The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return, combined New York and Texas state income tax returns and various separate Pennsylvania and Arkansasstate income tax returns.

The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company did not have any accrued interest or penalties included in its consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 20172019 or December 31, 2016,2018, and did not recognize any interest and/or penalties in its consolidated statements of income during the years ended December 31, 20172019 and 2016.2018. The Company did not have any material uncertain tax positions or unrecognized tax benefits or obligations as of December 31, 20172019 and December 31, 2016.2018. The 20142016 through 20162018 federal and state tax returns remain subject to examination.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company has accounted for the impact of the provisions in the Tax Act during the year ended December 31, 2017.

Supplemental Cash Flow Information

Income taxes paid during the twelve month periods ended December 31, 20172019 and 20162018 amounted to approximately $73,000$524,000 and $684,000,$1,325,000, respectively. Interest paid during the twelve month periods ended December 31, 20172019 and 20162018 amounted to approximately $77,000125,000 and $73,000$107,000, respectively.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable based on undiscounted future operating cash flow analyses. If an impairment is determined to exist, any related impairment loss is calculated based on fair value. Due to the losses incurred by our CPG segment, we performed a test for recoverability of the long-lived assets by comparing its carrying value to the future undiscounted cash flows that we expect will be generated by the asset group. Impairment losses on assets to be disposed of, if any, are based on the estimated proceeds to be received, less costs of disposal. The Company has determined that no impairment of long-lived assets existed at and during the years ended December 31, 20172019 and December 31, 2016.2018.

SERVOTRONICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain balances as previously reported were reclassified to conform with classifications adopted in the current period.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Concentration of Credit Risks

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risks principally consist of cash accounts in financial institutions. Although the accounts exceed the federally insured deposit amount, management does not anticipate nonperformance by the financial institutions.

During the Company’s 2017 fiscal year, sales of advanced technology products pursuant to contracts with prime or subcontractors for various branches of the United States Government accounted for approximately 9%of the Company’s consolidated revenues as compared to 9% in 2016. The Company had sales of advanced technology products to threetwo customers, including various divisions and subsidiaries of a common parent company, which represented more than 10% of consolidated revenues in 2017.2019. Total revenues from these threetwo customers amounted to approximately 49%55% in 20172019 as compared to threethe same two customers amounting to approximately 61%49% of the Company’s consolidated revenues in 2016.2018. No other customers of the ATG or CPG represented more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated revenues in either of these years. Refer to Note 11, Business Segments, for disclosures related to business segments of the Company.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accountsAccounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to their short maturity. Based on variable interest rates and the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans similar to its long-term debt, theirthe fair value approximates theits carrying amount.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The new standard requires a lessee to record on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases with lease terms of more than 12 months and requires both lessees and lessors to disclose certain key information about lease transactions. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard during the first quarter of 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures. The Company originally financed four pieces of equipment through a lease line of credit and have recognized a lease liability and a ROU (Right of Use) asset for each piece of equipment. During 2019 one piece of equipment was traded and financed through our equipment note obligations leaving three remaining ROU assets. Finance lease assets are included in property, plant, and equipment, and liabilities are included in short-term and long-term debt.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted new guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASU 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”. The ASU changes the measurement principle for certain inventory methods from the lower of cost or market to the lower of cost and net realizable value. Adoption of this new guidance had no impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial position.

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted new guidance issued by the FASB ASU 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes”. The guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. Adoption of this new guidance during the reporting period resulted in the reclassification of a deferred tax liability of $661,000 from current to noncurrent at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The deferred tax liability, for both reporting periods offsets the deferred tax asset, as presented on the balance sheet at December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted new guidance issued by the FASB ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” which amends the current stock compensation guidance. The amendments simplify the accounting for the taxes related to stock based compensation, including adjustments to how excess tax benefits and a Company’s payments for tax withholdings should be classified. Adoption of this new guidance has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial position.

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company selected early adoption of the new guidance issued by the FASB ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which removes the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Adoption of this new guidance has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial position.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost,” which requires employers to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization in assets. The other components of net periodic benefit cost will be presented separately from the line item(s) that includes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income, if one is presented. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." The new revenue recognition standard outlines a comprehensive model for companies to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. In August 2015, the FASB affirmed its proposal to defer the effective date of the standard to annual reporting periods (and interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2017. Entities are permitted to apply the new revenue standard early, but not before the original effective date of annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016.

SERVOTRONICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revenue on a significant portion of our contracts is currently recognized at the time of shipment of goods, transfer of title and customer acceptance, as required. Our revenue transactions generally consist of a single performance obligation to transfer contracted goods and are not accounted for under-industry-specific guidance. We have obtained an understanding of the new standard and currently believe that we will retain much of the same accounting treatment used to recognize revenue as compared to current standards.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” There are elements of the new standard that could impact almost all entities to some extent, although the lessees will likely see the most significant changes. Lessee will need to recognize virtually all of their leases on the balance sheet, by recording the right-of-use asset and a lease liability. Public business entities are required to adopt the new leasing standard for fiscal years, and interim period within those fiscal years, beginning December 15, 2018. For calendar year-end public companies, this means an adoption date of January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe the adoption will have a material impact on the financial statements and disclosures.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income to allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the U.S. tax reform legislation commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

As previously disclosed, the Company through a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a contract to sell unused commercial real property in Franklinville, New York for approximately $180,000. The sale transaction closed on March 9, 2017 and the wholly-owned subsidiary recognized a de minimis loss on the sale.
