The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") establishes changes to accounting principles under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") through the use of Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") to the FASB's Accounting Standards Codification. The Company evaluates the applicability and potential impacts of recent ASUs on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the FASB amended its guidance related to income taxes. The amended guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes, eliminating certain exceptions to the general income tax principles, in an effort to reduce the cost and complexity of application. The amended guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those reporting periods. Early adoption was permitted in any interim or annual period. The guidance requires application on either a prospective, retrospective or modified retrospective basis, contingent on the income tax exception being applied. The Company adopted this guidance, on a prospective basis, on January 1, 2021 and it did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), announced its intent to phase out the use of LIBOR by December 31, 2021. The U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred benchmark alternative to U.S. dollar LIBOR. Published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, SOFR represents a measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight, collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, and is calculated based on directly observable U.S. Treasury-backed repurchase transactions. In March 2020, in response to this transition, the FASB issued guidance related to this rate reform, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued by reference rate reform, and addresses operational issues likely to arise in modifying contracts to replace discontinued reference rates with new rates. In January 2021, the FASB issued further clarifying guidance regarding derivatives, as it relates to this transition. The guidance is effective through December 31, 2022. The Company’s Amended Credit Agreement (Note 8) and corresponding interest rate Swaps (Note 9) each mature in February 2026. In March 2021, the ~~ICE~~Intercontinental Exchange Benchmark Association announced that it will extend the publication of overnight, 1, 3, 6 and 12 month LIBOR rates until June 30, 2023, while ceasing publication of all other LIBOR rates including 1 week and 2 month rates. The Company's Amended Credit Agreement was further amended in October 2021 and in April 2022 to address the replacement of LIBOR via the LIBOR Transition Agreement and Amendment No. 1, respectively (see Note 8), with SOFR. The Company's corresponding interest rate Swaps were amended in May 2022 to address the replacement of ~~LIBOR. The~~

LIBOR. As a result of the Company's contract amendments to address the replacement of LIBOR, the Company does not anticipate a material impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow as a result of this change.

In October 2021, the FASB amended its guidance related to business combinations. The amended guidance requires entities to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in business combinations on the acquisition date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new guidance is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the amended guidance as the guidance will be applicable to future acquisitions.

In August 2022, the U.S. government enacted tax legislation commonly referred to as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) into law. The IRA will impose a 1% excise tax on the fair market value of certain stock repurchased by a public traded company after December 31, 2022 and restored and modified certain tax-related energy incentives. The Company does not anticipate a material impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow as a result of this change.

In September 2022, the FASB amended its guidance related to supplier finance programs. The amended guidance requires additional disclosures surrounding the use of supplier finance programs to purchase goods or services including disclosing the key terms of the programs, the amount of obligations outstanding at the end of the reporting period, and a roll-forward of those obligations. The new guidance, except the amendment on roll-forward information, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendment on roll-forward information is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this amended guidance will have on the Company's Financial Statements.

3. Revenue

The Company is a global provider of highly engineered products, differentiated industrial technologies, and innovative solutions, serving a wide range of end markets and customers. Its specialized products and services are used in far-reaching applications in healthcare, automation, packaging, aerospace, mobility and manufacturing.

Revenue is recognized by the Company when control of the product or solution is transferred to the customer. Control is generally transferred when products are shipped or delivered to customers, title is transferred, the significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred, and the Company has rights to payment and the rewards of ownership pass to the customer. Customer acceptance may also be a factor in determining whether control of the product has transferred. Although revenue is generally recognized at a point in time, a certain portion of the Company's businesses with customized products or contracts in which the Company performs work on customer-owned assets requires the use of an over-time recognition model as certain contracts meet one or more of the established criteria pursuant to the accounting guidance. Also, service revenue is recognized as control transfers, which is concurrent with the services being performed.

The following table presents the Company's revenue disaggregated by products and services, and geographic regions, by segment:

(A) Sales by geographic region are based on the location to which the product is shipped and services are delivered.

Revenue from products and services transferred to customers at a point in time accounted for approximately 80 percent of total revenue for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and ~~June~~September 30, 2021. A majority of revenue within the Industrial segment and Aerospace Original Equipment Manufacturing Products business ("OEM"), along with a portion of revenue within the Aerospace Aftermarket Products and Services business ("Aftermarket"), is recognized at a point in time, primarily when the product or solution is shipped to the customer.

Revenue from products and services transferred to customers over-time accounted for approximately 20 percent of total revenue for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and ~~June~~September 30, 2021. The Company recognizes revenue over-time in instances where a contract supports a continual transfer of control to the customer. Substantially all of our revenue in the Aerospace Aftermarket maintenance repair and overhaul business (within Aftermarket Products and Services) and a portion of the revenue for Engineered Components products, Molding Solutions products and Aerospace OEM products is recognized over-time. Within the Molding Solutions and Aerospace Aftermarket businesses, this continual transfer of control to the customer partially results from repair and refurbishment work performed on customer-controlled assets. With other contracts, this continual transfer of control to the customer is supported by clauses in the contract, or governing commercial law of the relevant jurisdiction, where we deliver products that do not have an alternative use and require an enforceable right to payment of costs incurred (plus a reasonable profit) or the Company has a contractual right to complete any work in process and receive full contract price.

The majority of our revenue is from contracts that are for less than one year, however certain Aerospace OEM and Molding Solutions business contracts extend beyond one year. In the Industrial segment, customers are typically OEMs or suppliers to OEMs and, in some businesses, distributors. In the Aerospace segment, customers include commercial airlines, OEMs, defense-related manufacturers, and industry parts and service providers.

A performance obligation represents a promise within a contract to provide a distinct good or service to the customer. Revenue is recognized in an over-time model based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be provided. The Company utilizes the cost-to-cost measure of progress for over-time contracts as we believe this measure best depicts the transfer of control to the customer, which occurs as we incur costs on contracts.

Adjustments to net sales, cost of sales and the related impact to operating income are recognized as necessary in the period they become known. Revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods was not material in both the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Contract Balances. The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections affects accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Unbilled Receivables (Contract Assets) - Pursuant to the over-time revenue recognition model, revenue may be recognized prior to the customer being invoiced. An unbilled receivable is recorded to reflect revenue that is recognized when 1) the cost-to-cost method is applied and 2) such revenue exceeds the amount invoiced to the customer. Unbilled receivables are included within Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Customer Advances and Deposits (Contract Liabilities) - The Company may receive a customer advance or deposit, or have an unconditional right to receive a customer advance, prior to revenue being recognized. Certain contracts within the Molding Solutions business, for example, may require such advances. Since the performance obligations related to such advances have not been satisfied, a contract liability is established. An offsetting asset of equal amount is recorded as an account receivable until the advance is collected. Advances and deposits are included within Accrued Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets until the respective revenue is recognized. Advance payments are not considered a significant financing component as they are generally received less than one year before the customer solution is completed. These assets and liabilities are reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets on an individual contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

Net contract assets (liabilities) consisted of the following:


		June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021		$ Change		% Change			September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021		$ Change		% Change
Unbilled receivables (contract assets)	Unbilled receivables (contract assets)	$	36,401	$	33,522	$	2,879	9	%	Unbilled receivables (contract assets)	$	42,274	$	33,522	$	8,752	26	%
Contract liabilities	Contract liabilities	(19,868)		(25,374)		5,506		(22)	%	Contract liabilities	(14,706)		(25,374)		10,668		(42)	%
Net contract assets	Net contract assets	$	16,533	$	8,148	$	8,385	103	%	Net contract assets	$	27,568	$	8,148	$	19,420	238	%

Contract liabilities balances at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 include ~~$10,242~~$4,033 and $9,364, respectively, of customer advances for which the Company has an unconditional right to collect payment. Accounts receivable, as presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, includes corresponding balances at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Changes in the net contract assets during the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 included a ~~$5,506~~$10,668 decrease in contract liabilities, driven primarily by revenue recognized in the current period, partially offset by new customer advances and deposits.

Adding to this net contract assets increase was a ~~$2,879~~$8,752 increase in contract assets, driven primarily by contract progress (i.e., unbilled receivable), partially offset by earlier contract progress being invoiced to the customer.

The Company recognized ~~approximately 40%~~less than 10% and over 90% of the revenue related to the contract liabilities balance as of December 31, 2021 during the three and ~~six~~nine months periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, respectively, and approximately ~~15%~~30% and ~~55%~~85% of the revenue related to the contract liabilities balance as of December 31, 2020 during the three and ~~six months~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, respectively, primarily representing revenue from the sale of molds and hot runners within the Molding Solutions business.

Remaining Performance Obligations. The Company has elected to disclose remaining performance obligations only for contracts with an original duration of greater than one year. Such remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of firm orders for which work has not yet been performed and, for Aerospace, excludes projections of components and assemblies that Aerospace OEM customers anticipate purchasing in the future under existing programs, which represent orders that are beyond lead time and do not represent performance obligations pursuant to accounting guidance. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was ~~$182,869.~~$202,271. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 70% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months, with the remainder to be recognized within 24 months.

5. Net Income (Loss) ~~Income~~ Per Common Share

For the purpose of computing diluted net income per common share, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased for the potential dilutive effects of stock-based incentive plans. For the purpose of computing diluted net income per common share for the three month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding was increased by 139,951 and 155,482, respectively. No potentially dilutive shares have been included in the diluted earnings per share calculations for the ~~three- and six-month periods~~nine month period ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 due to the Company’s reported net ~~losses~~loss for the ~~periods.~~period. For the purpose of computing diluted net income per common share for the ~~three- and six-month periods~~nine month period ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding was increased by ~~169,081 and 161,825, respectively.~~159,807.

The calculation of weighted-average diluted shares outstanding excludes all shares that would have been anti-dilutive. During the ~~three-month~~three month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company excluded ~~875,544~~875,706 and ~~503,078~~501,242 stock awards, respectively, from the calculation of weighted-average diluted shares outstanding as the stock awards were considered anti-dilutive. During the ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company excluded ~~797,194~~823,365 and ~~512,598~~508,812 stock awards, respectively, from the calculation of weighted-average diluted shares outstanding as the stock awards were considered anti-dilutive.

The Company granted 115,600 stock options, 144,524 restricted stock unit awards and 121,860 performance share awards ("PSAs") in February 2022 as part of its annual long-term incentive equity grant awards. All of the stock options and the restricted stock unit awards vest upon meeting certain service conditions. The restricted stock unit awards are included in basic weighted-average common shares outstanding as they contain nonforfeitable rights to dividend payments. The PSAs are part of the long-term Performance Share Award Program and are based on performance goals that are driven by a combination of independently measured metrics (depending on the grant year) with each metric being weighted equally. The metrics for awards granted in 2022 include the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”), return on invested capital (“ROIC”) and operating income before depreciation and amortization growth ("EBITDA growth"). The TSR and EBITDA growth metrics are designed to assess the long-term Company performance relative to the performance of companies included in the Russell 2000 Index over a three-year performance period. ROIC is designed to assess the Company's performance compared to pre-established Company targets over a three-year performance period. The participants can earn from zero to 250% of the target award and the award includes a forfeitable right to dividend equivalents, which are not included in the aggregate target award numbers. The fair value of the TSR is determined using a Monte Carlo valuation method as the award contains a market condition.

On July 14, 2022, the Company granted Thomas J. Hook, newly appointed President and Chief Executive Officer, an award of performance stock options to purchase 1,183,406 shares of Barnes common stock at a purchase price of $30.32 in connection with his appointment based on a grant date fair value of $10,000. The stock options have a ten-year term and cliff-vest in five

years, subject to continued service and the achievement of compound annual growth rates (“CAGRs”) in the price of the Company’s common shares above the option exercise price as of the fifth anniversary of the grant date, with 0% vesting at a CAGR of less than 5%, 33.3% vesting at a CAGR of 5%, 66.6% vesting at a CAGR of 7% and 100% vesting at a CAGR of 9% or greater, with linear interpolation between such CAGR levels. The fair value of the options is determined using a Monte Carlo valuation method as the award contains a market condition.

7. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill:

The following table sets forth the change in the carrying amount of goodwill for each reportable segment and for the Company as of and for the period ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022:


		Industrial		Aerospace		Total Company			Industrial		Aerospace		Total Company
December 31, 2021	December 31, 2021	$	924,584	$	30,786	$	955,370	December 31, 2021	$	924,584	$	30,786	$	955,370

September 30, 2022								September 30, 2022	$	754,166	$	30,786	$	784,952

As of April 1, 2022, management performed its annual impairment testing of goodwill. The Company utilizes the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the Step 1 quantitative goodwill impairment test in accordance with applicable accounting standards. Under the qualitative assessment, management considers relevant events and circumstances including but not limited to macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall reporting unit performance and events directly affecting a reporting unit. If the Company determines that the Step 1 quantitative impairment test is required, management estimates the fair value of the reporting unit primarily using an income approach, which reflects management’s cash flow projections, and also evaluates the fair value using a market approach. Inherent in management’s development of cash flow projections are assumptions and estimates, including those related to future earnings and growth rates and the weighted average cost of capital. The Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit with the carrying value of the reporting unit. If the fair values were to fall below the carrying values, the Company would recognize a

non-cash impairment charge to income from operations for the amount by which the carrying amount of any reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, assuming the loss recognized does not exceed the total amount of goodwill for the reporting unit.

Based on our assessment as of April 1, the estimated fair value of the Automation reporting unit, which represents the 2018 acquisition of Gimatic, exceeded its carrying value, while the estimated fair value of each of the remaining reporting units significantly exceeded their carrying values. The Company evaluated deteriorating macro-economic conditions subsequent to the date of the assessment, including inflationary pressures, rising interest rates, worsening global supply chain constraints and demand outlook, which materialized during the second quarter of 2022, which impacted performance and outlook at Automation and resulted in a triggering event. Management revised its cash flow projections and weighted average cost of capital, resulting in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $68,194 related to the Automation reporting unit as the estimated fair value of the reporting unit declined below its carrying value. The goodwill impairment charge was recorded during the three-month period ended June 30, 2022.

The Company has continued to evaluate the macro-economic conditions, as described above, during the third quarter of 2022. Based on our third quarter assessment, there was no impairment of goodwill as of September 30, 2022.

The fair value of the 3.97% Senior Notes was determined using the U.S. Treasury yield and a long-term credit spread for similar types of borrowings, which represent Level 2 observable inputs.

On October 8, 2020, the Company entered into the sixth amendment to its fifth amended and restated revolving credit agreement with Bank of America (the “Sixth Amendment”) and the first amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement with New York Life (the “First NPA Amendment” and, collectively with the Sixth Amendment, the "Amendments"). The Sixth Amendment maintained the borrowing availability of $1,000,000 along with access to request an additional $200,000 through an accordion feature. The Sixth Amendment and the First NPA Amendment provided for an increase in the Company’s maximum ratio of Consolidated Senior Debt, as defined, to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined, from 3.25 times (or, if a certain permitted acquisition above $150,000 is consummated, 3.50 times) to 3.75 times in each case at the end of the four fiscal quarters, beginning with December 31, 2020, and regardless of whether a permitted acquisition, as defined, is consummated, providing additional financing flexibility and access to liquidity. Additionally, the Sixth Amendment requires the Company to maintain a maximum ratio of Consolidated Total Debt, as defined, to Consolidated EBITDA, of not more than 3.75 times in each case, at the end of the four fiscal quarters, beginning with December 31, 2020 and regardless of whether a permitted acquisition is consummated. Furthermore, the First NPA Amendment provides for (i) adjustments to the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined, to conform to a more restrictive total leverage ratio that may be required under the Sixth Amendment, (ii) an increase in the amount of allowable add-back for restructuring charges when calculating Consolidated EBITDA from $15,000 to $25,000 and (iii) a required fee payment equal to 0.50% per annum times the daily outstanding principal amount of the note during each of the four fiscal quarters, following the quarter ended December 31, 2020, if the Company’s Senior Leverage Ratio, as defined, exceeds 3.25 times. In October 2020, the Company paid fees and expenses of $1,384 in conjunction with executing the Amendments. Such fees have been deferred within Other Assets on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and are being amortized into interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income.

On February 10, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the sixth amended and restated senior unsecured revolving credit agreement (the "Amended Credit Agreement") and retained Bank of America, N.A. as the Administrative Agent for the lenders. The Amended Credit Agreement maintains the $1,000,000 of availability under the facility, while increasing the available borrowings under the accordion feature from $200,000 to $250,000 (aggregate availability of $1,250,000) and extends the maturity date through February 2026. The Amended Credit Agreement also adjusts the interest rate to either the Eurocurrency rate, as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement, plus a margin of 1.175% to 1.775% or the base rate, as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement, plus a margin of 0.175% to 0.775%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio at the time of the borrowing. Multi-currency borrowings, pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, bear interest at their respective interbank offered rate (i.e. Euribor) or 0.00% (higher of the two rates) plus a margin of between 1.175% and 1.775%. As with the earlier facility, the Company's borrowing capacity is limited by various debt covenants in the Amended Credit Agreement, as described further below. The Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a Senior Debt Ratio of not more than 3.25 times at the end of each fiscal quarter (or, if a permitted acquisition above $150,000 is consummated, 3.50 times at the end of each of the first four fiscal quarters ending after the consummation of any such acquisition). In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a Total Debt Ratio of not more than 3.75 for each fiscal quarter (or, if a permitted acquisition above $150,000 is consummated, 4.25 times at the end of each of the first four fiscal quarters ending after the consummation of any such acquisition). A ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to Consolidated Cash Interest Expense, as defined, of not less than 4.25, is required at the end of each fiscal quarter. The Company paid fees and expenses of $4,306 in conjunction with executing the Amended Credit Agreement. Such fees have been deferred within Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are being amortized into interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income through their maturity. Cash used to pay these fees was recorded through other financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company further amended the Amended Credit Agreement on October 11, 2021, defining certain applicable multi-currency borrowing rates that may be used as replacement rates for LIBOR, which is expected to be discontinued by reference rate reform. See Note 2.

On April 6, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Amended Credit Agreement, which (i) replaced the LIBOR interest rate for U.S. dollar loans to a term Secured Overnight Financing Rate including a Secured Overnight Financing Rate adjustment (or "SOFR", as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement), (ii) added a daily SOFR option for U.S. dollar loans and a term SOFR option for U.S. dollar loans, and (iii) added the ability to borrow foreign swing line loans based on the Euro Short Term Rate (as defined) with the same interest spread as the interest spread for SOFR Loans (as defined) and Alternative Currency Loans (defined as loans denominated in Euro, Sterling, Swiss Francs or Yen). In addition, Amendment No. 1 lowered the interest rate spread on (i) SOFR Loans and Alternative Currency Loans to a range from 0.975% to 1.70%, depending on the leverage ratio (the “Leverage Ratio”) of Consolidated Total Debt (as defined) to Consolidated EBITDA (as defined) as of the end of each fiscal quarter, and (ii) loans based on the Base Rate (as defined), to a

range from 0.00% to 0.70%, depending on the Company’s Leverage Ratio as of the end of each fiscal quarter. Amendment No. 1 also lowered the facility fee, which is required to be paid by the Company under the Amended Credit Agreement and is calculated on the full amount of the revolving facility, to a range from 0.15% to 0.30%, depending on the Company’s Leverage Ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter. In April 2022, the Company paid fees and expenses of $1,037 in conjunction with executing Amendment No. 1. Such fees have been deferred within Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized into interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income through the maturity of Amended Credit Agreement. Cash used to pay these fees was recorded through other financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Borrowings and availability under the Amended Credit Agreement were ~~$478,919~~$453,290 and ~~$521,081,~~$546,710, respectively, at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and $495,262 and $504,738, respectively, at December 31, 2021, subject to covenants in the Company's revolving debt agreements. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, additional borrowings of ~~$355,243~~$368,995 of Total Debt (including ~~$230,005~~$245,437 of Senior Debt) would have been allowed under the financial covenants. The average interest rate on these borrowings was ~~1.57%~~2.52% and 1.48% on ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Borrowings included Euro-denominated borrowings of ~~310,000~~315,000 Euros ($~~323,919)~~308,290) at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 318,450 Euros ($360,262) at December 31, 2021. The fair value of the borrowings is based on observable Level 2 inputs. The borrowings were valued using discounted cash flows based upon the Company's estimated interest costs for similar types of borrowings.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants. The Company anticipates continued compliance in each of the next four quarters while continuing to monitor its future compliance based on current and future economic conditions. The Company's most restrictive financial covenant is the Senior Debt Ratio, which required the Company to maintain a ratio of Consolidated Senior Debt to Consolidated EBITDA of not more than 3.25 times at ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The actual ratio, as defined, was ~~2.33~~2.26 times at ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

In addition, the Company has approximately $70,000 in uncommitted short-term bank credit lines ("Credit Lines") and overdraft facilities. The Credit Lines are accessed locally and are available primarily within the U.S., Europe and Asia. The

Credit Lines are subject to the applicable borrowing rates within each respective country and vary between jurisdictions (i.e. LIBOR, Euribor, etc.). The Company had no borrowings under the Credit Lines at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. The Company had borrowed $4$0 and $224 under the overdraft facilities at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Repayments under the Credit Lines are due within one month after being borrowed. Repayments of the overdrafts are generally due within two days after being borrowed. The carrying amounts of the Credit Lines and overdrafts approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments.

The Company also has several finance leases under which ~~$5,120~~$4,403 and $6,505 was outstanding at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The fair value of the finance leases is based on observable Level 2 inputs. These instruments were valued using discounted cash flows based upon the Company's estimated interest costs for similar types of borrowings.

Other debt includes bank acceptances. Bank acceptances represent financial instruments accepted by certain China-based vendors in lieu of cash paid on payables, generally range from three to six months in maturity and are guaranteed by banks. The Company had no bank acceptances outstanding at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and $1,676 of bank acceptances outstanding at December 31, 2021. The carrying amounts of the bank acceptances approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments.

9. Derivatives

The Company has manufacturing, service and sales facilities around the world and thus makes investments and conducts business transactions denominated in various currencies. The Company is also exposed to fluctuations in interest rates and commodity price changes. These financial exposures are monitored and managed by the Company as an integral part of its risk management program.

Derivative financial instruments have been used by the Company to hedge its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. On April 28, 2017, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement (the "2017 Swap") with 1one bank which converted the interest on the first $100,000 of the Company's one-month LIBOR-based borrowings from a variable rate plus the borrowing spread to a fixed rate of 1.92% plus the borrowing spread. The 2017 Swap expired on January 31, 2022. On March 24, 2021, the Company entered into a new interest rate swap agreement (the "2021 Swap") with this same bank that commenced on January 31, 2022 and that converted the interest on the first $100,000 of the Company's one-month LIBOR-based borrowings from a variable rate plus the borrowing spread to a fixed rate of 1.17% plus the borrowing spread. On April 6, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Amended Credit Agreement, which replaced the LIBOR interest rate for U.S. dollar loans with the SOFR rate (see Note 8). As a result, in May 2022 the Company subsequently amended the 2021 Swap (the ~~"Amended~~

"Amended 2021 Swap"), effective April 30, 2022, such that the one-month SOFR-based borrowing rate replaced the one-month LIBOR-based borrowing rate. The Amended 2021 Swap, which will expire on January 30, 2026, converts the interest on the first $100,000 of the Company's one-month SOFR-based borrowings from a variable rate plus the borrowing spread to a fixed rate of 1.075% plus the borrowing spread. The execution of the Amended 2021 Swap did not result in a material impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow. These interest rate swap agreements (the "Swaps") are accounted for as cash flow hedges.

The Company also uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposures to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company has various contracts outstanding which primarily hedge recognized assets or liabilities and anticipated transactions in various currencies including the Euro, British pound sterling, U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, Japanese yen, Singapore dollar, Korean won, Swedish kroner, Chinese renminbi, Mexican peso, Hong Kong dollar and Swiss franc. Certain foreign currency derivative instruments are treated as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions. All foreign exchange contracts are due within two years.

The Company does not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes or to manage commodity exposures.

The Company records the derivatives at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets within Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Assets, Accrued Liabilities or Other Liabilities depending on their fair value and remaining contractual period. Changes in the fair market value of derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges are recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to earnings in a manner that matches the earnings impact of the hedged transaction. Reclassifications to earnings for the Swaps are recorded through interest expense and reclassifications to earnings for foreign exchange contracts are recorded through net sales. Changes in the fair market value of the foreign exchange contracts that are not designated hedging instruments are recorded directly to earnings through Other expense (income), net.

The fair values of the Amended 2021 Swap were $8,447 and $316 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and were recorded in Other Assets in the ConsolidatedBalance Sheets for the periods. The fair values of the Company's other derivatives were not material to the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. ~~The~~With the exception of the increase in the fair value of the Amended 2021 Swap from December 31, 2021 to September 30, 2022, the activity related to the derivatives that have been designated hedging instruments was not material to

the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 or 2021. The Company recognized losses ~~(gains)~~ of ~~$9,325~~$8,094 and ~~$(2,889)~~$2,991 related to the foreign exchange contracts that are not accounted for as hedging instruments within other expense (income), net, in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) ~~Income~~ for the three-month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company recognized losses of ~~$10,577~~$18,671 and ~~$412~~$3,404 related to the foreign exchange contracts that are not accounted for as hedging instruments within other expense (income), net, in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) ~~Income~~ for the ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Such losses ~~(gains)~~ were substantially offset by net gains ~~(losses)~~ recorded on the underlying hedged asset or liability (the "underlying"). Offsetting net gains ~~(losses)~~ on the underlying are also recorded within Other expense (income), net.

The Company's policy for classifying cash flows from derivatives is to report the cash flows consistent with the underlying hedged item. Other financing cash flows during the ~~six months~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, as presented on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, include ~~$8,690~~$17,271 and $1,070 of net cash payments ~~and $808 of net cash proceeds, respectively,~~ related to the settlement of foreign currency hedges related to intercompany financing.

10. Fair Value Measurements

The provisions of the accounting standard for fair value define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This standard classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.

Level 3 Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The following table provides the assets and liabilities reported at fair value and measured on a recurring basis as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The derivative contracts are valued using observable current market information as of the reporting date such as the prevailing SOFR-based interest rates and foreign currency spot and forward rates. Bank acceptances represent financial instruments accepted from certain China-based customers in lieu of cash paid on receivables, have maturities of one year or less and are guaranteed by banks. The carrying amounts of the bank acceptances, which are included within prepaid expenses and other current assets, approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The fair values of rabbi trust assets are based on quoted market prices from various financial exchanges.

12. Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rate for the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 was ~~(267.2)%~~111.0% compared with ~~26.6%~~27.0% in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2021 and 21.9% for the full year 2021. The ~~decrease~~increase in the effective tax rate in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 as compared with the rate for the full year 2021 was driven by the goodwill impairment charge of $68,194, which is not tax deductible for book purposes. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, the effective tax rate for the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 was ~~22.0%~~24.0%. Additional drivers in the effective tax rate in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022, as compared with the full year 2021 rate, include the absence of benefits related to the realignment of tax basis goodwill and intangibles, and the favorable Mutual Aid Process Approval, both recorded in 2021. Additionally, certain costs were recorded during the third quarter of 2022 related to GILTI tax. The effective tax rate iswas also favorably impacted by higher income in jurisdictions with tax holidays.

The Aerospace and Industrial segments have several multi-year tax holidays in Singapore, China and Malaysia. The Company was granted a tax holiday in China that was approved in December 2021. As a result of this tax holiday, the China tax rate was reduced from 25% to 15% and is effective for a three year period commencing January 1, 2021 (retroactively). Aerospace was granted an income tax holiday for operations established in Malaysia. This holiday commenced effective November 2020 (retroactively) and remains effective for a period of ten years. The Singapore tax holiday is scheduled to expire in December 2022. These holidays are subject to the Company meeting certain commitments in the respective jurisdictions.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

Product Warranties

The Company provides product warranties in connection with the sale of certain products. From time to time, the Company is subject to customer claims with respect to product warranties. The Company accrues its estimated exposure for warranty claims at the time of sale based upon the length of the warranty period, historical experience and other related information known to the Company. Liabilities related to product warranties and extended warranties were not material as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

In July 2021, a customer asserted breach of contract and contractual warranty claims regarding a part manufactured by the Company. ~~While the~~The Company disputes the asserted claims ~~the Company~~ and ~~the customer are in discussions seeking to resolve the matter. No~~no litigation or other proceeding has been initiated. While it is currently not possible to determine the ultimate outcome of this matter, the Company intends to vigorously defend its position and believes that the ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or liquidity, but could be material to the consolidated results of operations of any one period.

Litigation

The Company is subject to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business and various other suits, proceedings and claims are pending involving the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company records a loss contingency liability when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. While it is not possible to determine the ultimate disposition of each of these proceedings and whether they will be resolved consistent with the Company's beliefs, the Company expects that the outcome of such proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on financial condition or results of operations.

16. Business Reorganizations

In June 2020, the Company announced restructuring and workforce reduction actions ("2020 Actions") which were implemented across its businesses and functions in response to the macroeconomic disruption in global industrial and aerospace end markets arising from COVID-19. During 2020, a resulting pre-tax charge of $19,116 was recorded ($18,158 through operating profit), primarily related to employee severance and termination benefits (recorded largely during the second quarter of 2020). These actions were substantially complete as of December 31, 2020 and reduced the Company’s global workforce by approximately 8%. A corresponding liability of ~~$664,~~$100, per below, remained and was included within accrued liabilities as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The Company does not expect any additional costs related to the 2020 Actions to be significant.

The following table sets forth the change in the liability related to ~~these actions:~~the 2020 Actions:

In 2021, the Company initiated additional restructuring actions ("~~Restructurings"~~2021 Actions") at a number of locations. The ~~Restructurings~~2021 Actions included a transfer of manufacturing capabilities to leverage existing capacity which is expected to reduce labor and infrastructure costs. The ~~Restructurings~~2021 Actions resulted in pre-tax charges of $2,869, primarily related to employee severance and termination benefits, in 2021 (recorded primarily during the second and fourth quarters of 2021), and ~~$719~~$382 in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022. The Company does not expect any additional costs related to the ~~Restructurings~~2021 Actions to be significant.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Barnes Group Inc.

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Barnes Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, and the related consolidated statements of income (loss) ~~income~~ and of comprehensive (loss) income for the three-month and ~~six-month~~nine-month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021 and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the ~~six-month~~nine-month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “interim financial information”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the related consolidated statements of income, of comprehensive income, of changes in stockholders’ equity, and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 22, 2022, which included a paragraph describing a change in the manner of accounting for leases in the 2019 financial statements, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2021, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

This interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

Please refer to the Overview in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Annual Report on Form 10-K, along with the Company's other filings, can be found on the Securities and Exchange Commission's website, www.sec.gov, as well as on the Company's website: ~~www.barnesgroupinc.com~~www.onebarnes.com.

~~Second~~Third Quarter Highlights

The Company reported net sales of ~~$321.3~~$314.7 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 ~~flat compared with~~decreased $10.3 million or 3.2% from the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021. Organic sales increased by ~~$14.6~~$7.8 million, or ~~4.5%~~2.4%, including an increase of ~~$22.7~~$17.3 million, or ~~26.2%~~18.5%, at Aerospace, partially offset by a decrease of ~~$8.1~~$9.5 million, or ~~3.5%~~4.1%, at Industrial. The year-over-year increase at Aerospace was driven by volume increases within ~~both~~ the Aerospace ~~Original Equipment Manufacturing ("OEM") and Aerospace~~ Aftermarket ~~businesses,~~business, reflecting the ongoing recovery in aerospace end markets. From an Industrial standpoint, end-markets remained under pressure given the ongoing impacts of global supply chain constraints ~~including semiconductor shortages~~ on near-term automotive and broader industrial production. The strengthening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies decreased net sales within the Industrial segment by approximately ~~$14.5~~$18.1 million. Operating margins decreased from ~~12.0%~~13.4% in the 2021 period to ~~(8.8)%~~9.5% in the current period, largely a result of ~~a $68.2~~$9.0 million ~~goodwill impairment charge~~of pre-tax charges related to restructuring and workforce reduction actions, and increased raw material, utility, labor and freight ~~costs,~~costs. The aforementioned items were partially offset by pricing and procurement actions taken by management, combined with the profit contribution offrom higher volumes within the Aerospace Aftermarket business. ~~Excluding the goodwill impairment~~In addition, $1.4 million of restructuring charges, primarily related to a pension curtailment charge, ~~operating margin~~were recorded to other expense (income) during the ~~second~~third quarter of ~~2022 was 12.5%.~~2022.

Impact of Macroeconomic Trends

Several macroeconomic trends continued to present challenges across our businesses during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022, ~~with impacts~~ including labor and supply chain constraints, ~~and~~ rising interest rates, and inflationary pressures, resulting in increased freight, ~~utility,~~energy, labor and raw material costs. In addition to taking pricing actions to partially recover costs, ~~amongst others. The~~the Company has remained focused on cost management and productivity initiatives to mitigate these ~~impacts, in addition~~impacts. During July 2022, management commenced a systematic multi-phased initiative to ~~taking pricing actions to partially recover costs. In July 2022,~~significantly reduce costs and integrate the Company's operations, decreasing complexity and focusing on improved performance across Industrial. More specifically, at this time, the Company announced a restructuring program to ~~significantly~~further reduce costs within the Industrial segment, in response to the macroeconomic disruption caused by the aforementioned items (see Note 1716 of the Consolidated Financial Statements). Management also continues to evaluate the ongoing development of events in Ukraine and the potential for impacts on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

Within Aerospace, higher volumes in the Aftermarket business contributed to an increase in both gross profit and gross profit margin during the third quarter of 2022, with operating margins specifically benefiting from significant growth within the higher margin Aftermarket business partially offset by unfavorable productivity, driven by labor availability. As well, $1.8 million of pre-tax charges related to restructuring and workforce reduction actions (aggregate of $9.0 million) impacted gross profit across the segments. Selling and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2022 remained flat from the 2021 period whereas sales decreased between the comparable 2021 and 2022 periods by $10.3 million. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative costs increased ~~freight, labor, utilities~~from 23.5% in the third quarter of 2021 to 24.2% in the 2022 period. The increase in selling and ~~raw material~~administrative costs as a percentage of sales was primarily driven by $7.2 million of pre-tax charges related to restructuring and workforce reduction actions (aggregate of $9.0 million) partially offset by lower incentive compensation and lower amortization of certain intangibles related to earlier acquisitions. Operating income in the third quarter of 2022 decreased by 31.3% to $30.0 million compared with the third quarter of 2021, and operating income margin decreased from 13.4% to 9.5%, driven by the items noted above.

Cost of sales in the first nine months of 2022 increased 4.3% from the 2021 period, while gross profit margin decreased from 36.4% in the 2021 period to 33.7% in the 2022 period. Gross profit margins improved at Aerospace and declined at Industrial. Within Industrial, gross profit and gross profit margin decreased primarily as a result of decreased sales volumes, unfavorable productivity, in part caused by supply chain constraints, and inflationary pressures, which were partially offset by a decrease in employee related costs, including incentive compensation.

See Note 7 of the Consolidated Financial Statements and Item 2 - "Management's Discussion and Analysis if Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Other Matters - Critical Accounting Policies" for additional discussion regarding the goodwill impairment charge. Operating results in the second quarter of 2022 resulted in an operating loss of $28.2 million, compared with second quarter operating income of $38.5 million in 2021, and operating income (loss) margin decreased from 12.0% to (8.8)%, driven primarily by the goodwill impairment charge and the additional noted items above. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, operating profit and operating margin during the second quarter of 2022 were $40.0 million and 12.5%, respectively.

Cost of sales in the first half of 2022 increased 5.5% from the 2021 period, while gross profit margin decreased from 36.1% in the 2021 period to 33.7% in the 2022 period. Gross profit margins improved at Aerospace and declined at Industrial. Within Industrial, gross profit and gross profit margin decreased primarily as a result of the profit contribution of decreased sales volumes and increased supply chain constraints and inflationary pressures. Within Aerospace, higher volumes within both businesses on a year to date basis, in particular the higher margin Aftermarket business, contributed to an increase in both gross profit and gross profit margin during the first half of 2022. Selling and administrative expenses in the first half of 2022 decreased 7.4% from the 2021 period. Sales, however, increased by 1.7% between the comparable 2021 and 2022 periods.

The goodwill impairment charge of $68.2 million related to the Automation reporting unit also impacted operating results during the first ~~half~~nine months of the year. Operating income in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 was ~~$2.9~~$33.0 million, compared with first ~~half~~nine months operating income of ~~$70.9~~$114.6 million in 2021, and operating income margin decreased from ~~11.4%~~12.1% in the 2021 period to ~~0.5%~~3.5% in the 2022 period, primarily driven by the goodwill impairment charge, the pre-tax charges related to restructuring and workforce reduction actions and the additional items noted above. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, operating profit and operating margin during the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 were ~~$71.1~~$101.2 million and ~~11.2%~~10.7%, respectively.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased by ~~$1.2~~$0.7 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 and by ~~$1.5~~$2.2 million in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 as compared with the prior year periods, primarily a result of decreased average borrowings and lower average interest rates during the periods.

Other expense (income), net in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 was ~~$1.2~~$3.7 million compared to ~~$2.7~~$4.0 million in the first half of 2021. This decrease in expense was primarily driven by income in the other components of net periodic benefit costs of $0.2 million in the first half of 2022 compared with expense in the other components of net periodic benefit costs of $1.2 million in the first halfnine months of 2021.

Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rate for the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 was ~~(267.2)%~~111.0% compared with ~~26.6%~~27.0% in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2021 and 21.9% for the full year 2021. The ~~decrease~~increase in the effective tax rate in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 as compared with the rate for the full year 2021 was driven by the goodwill impairment charge of $68.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, which is not tax deductible for book purposes. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, the effective tax rate for the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 was ~~22.0%~~24.0%. Additional drivers of the increase in the effective tax rate in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022, as compared with the full year 2021 rate, include the absence of benefits related to the realignment of tax basis goodwill and intangibles, and the favorable Mutual Aid Process Approval, both recorded in 2021. Additionally, certain costs were recorded during the third quarter of 2022 related to GILTI tax. The effective tax rate iswas also favorably impacted by higher income in jurisdictions with tax ~~holidays.~~holidays during 2022.

Sales at Industrial were ~~$212.1~~$204.0 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022, a ~~$22.6~~$27.6 million, or ~~9.6%~~11.9%, decrease from the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021. Organic sales decreased by ~~$8.1~~$9.5 million, or ~~3.5%~~4.1%, during the 2022 period, primarily driven by lower volume, partially offset by pricing actions, intended to address inflationary pressures. The sales decline was primarily driven by softer year-over-year transportation, medical, and personal care end markets. Most meaningfully, the Molding Solutions and Automation businesses experienced year-over-year organic sales declines. The Engineered Components business experienced modest organic sales growth relative to the prior year period, with the Force and Motion business remaining flat. Global supply chain constraints ~~and labor availability challenges, in addition to semiconductor shortages,~~ impacted automotive and broader industrial production year-over-year. Foreign currency decreased sales on a year-over-year basis by approximately ~~$14.5~~$18.1 million as the U.S. dollar strengthened against foreign currencies. During the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022, this segment reported sales of ~~$423.8~~$627.7 million, ~~a 6.8%~~an 8.5% decrease from the first ~~half~~nine months of 2021. Organic sales decreased by ~~$10.5~~$19.4 million, or ~~2.3%~~2.8%, during the 2022 period, a result of declines within the Molding Solutions and Automation businesses. Foreign currency decreased sales by approximately ~~$20.4~~$39.1 million as the U.S. dollar strengthened against foreign currencies.

Operating ~~results~~profit at Industrial decreased from ~~an operating profit of $27.3~~$30.1 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 to ~~an operating loss of $48.7~~$8.8 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022, ~~driven by~~primarily due to the ~~$68.2~~$9.4 million ~~goodwill impairment charge~~of pre-tax charges related to restructuring and workforce reduction actions recorded by the ~~segment.

$43.0 million. During the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022, inflationary pressures and increased global sourcing costs of approximately ~~$18.0~~$28.0 million were partially offset by ~~similar~~the aforementioned actions taken by the Company, providing a recovery of approximately ~~$14.0~~$23.0 million. Operating margin decreased from ~~10.7%~~11.5% in the 2021 period to ~~(8.0)~~(4.0)% in the 2022 period, primarily a result of the items described above (primarily the goodwill impairment charge). Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, Industrial operating margin during the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 was ~~8.1%~~6.8%.

Outlook: In Industrial, management remains focused on generating organic sales growth through the introduction of new products and services and by leveraging the benefits of its diversified products and global industrial end-markets. Our end markets remain impacted by continuing economic headwinds including absenteeism, lockdowns in certain regions of China and supply chain constraints. ~~Growth remained flat~~Sales within ~~our key regions of North America and~~ China and Europe declined both on a year-over-year and sequential basis, albeit order rates within ~~Europe as supply~~China improved sequentially from the second quarter of 2022 and on a year-over-year basis within Europe. Supply chain disruptions and consumer uncertainty surrounding the economy impacted ~~demand~~current period shipments and ~~shipments~~sales across Industrial business and regions. Sales within our key region of North America improved both on a year-over-year and sequential basis. For overall industrial end-markets, the manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index ("PMI") ~~remains~~remained above 50 ~~within all regions.~~in North America, whereas PMI ~~within~~in China ~~has shown improvement since falling below 50 during the first quarter of 2022, with the United States~~ and Europe ~~showing deterioration during the same period.~~declined to below 50. Global production of light vehicles is ~~forecast~~forecasted to improve in 2022, albeit forecasted growth projections have ~~declined sequentially~~continued to decline since ~~the end of the first quarter of~~early 2022. Continued global supply constraints, including the semiconductor shortage, may continue to impact near-term automotive builds. Management expects these supply constraints to continue for the remainder of 2022 ~~before improving in the first half of~~and into 2023. Our customers and the markets we serve may impose emissions reduction or other environmental standards and requirements, including our conventional fuel-based automotive markets, thereby impacting sales volumes within our automotive end markets. Management also tracks closely the impact of pricing changes and lead times on raw materials and freight, given the increasing ongoing pressure of supply chain constraints. Management remains focused on labor constraints that have ~~impacted~~continued to impact the business throughout ~~2021~~2022. Energy shortages and ~~into the first half of 2022.

Orders within the personal care market have increased on ~~both~~ a year-over-year ~~and sequential~~ basis. Sales volumes at certain of our businesses is dependent upon the need for equipment used in plastic injection markets, which may be significantly influenced by the demand for plastic products, the capital investment needs of companies in the plastic injection molding and plastics processing industries, changes in technological advances and changes in laws or regulations such as those related to single-use plastics, product and packaging composition, and recycling. Automation orders ~~declined~~improved organically on ~~both~~ a year-over-year ~~and sequential~~ basis. Management continues to evaluate increasing recessionary pressures and the ongoing development of events in Ukraine and the potential for impacts on the Company. Within the segment, our exposure in Russia is minimal, with historical annual sales ofof less than $2.0 million. As noted above, our sales were negatively impacted by ~~$14.5~~$18.1 million from fluctuations in foreign ~~currencies.~~currencies within the third quarter of 2022 as compared with the third quarter of 2021. To the extent that the U.S. dollar fluctuates relative to other foreign currencies, our sales may be impacted relative to the prior year periods. The relative impact on operating profit is not expected to be as significant as the impact on sales as most of our businesses have expenses primarily denominated in local currencies, where their revenues reside, however operating margins may be impacted. Management is focused on sales growth through customer engagement, innovation ~~acquisition~~ and expanding geographic reach. Strategic investments in new technologies, manufacturing processes and product development are expected to provide benefits over the long term, and management continues to evaluate such opportunities.

The Company is focused on the proactive management of costs to increase competitiveness and to mitigate the ongoing impacts of the current macroeconomic environments, including the continuing risks of supply chain constraints and broad based inflation on operating profit. Management also remains focused on strategic investments and new product and process introductions, as well as driving ~~productivity by leveraging the Barnes Enterprise System ("BES").~~productivity. The Company continues to manage its cost structure to align with the intake of orders and sales given remaining uncertainty within certain end-markets during 2022. InDuring July 2022, management commenced a systematic multi-phased initiative to significantly reduce costs and integrate the Company's operations, decreasing complexity and focusing on improved performance across Industrial. More specifically, the Company authorized restructure actions (“Actions”) focused on the consolidation of two manufacturing sites and a number of branch offices, and changes in infrastructure to eliminate certain roles across a number of locations in the Industrial segment businesses. The Actions are expected to reduce annualized costs by approximately $14.0 million within the Industrial segment. See Note 1716 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion. In October, management approved the second round of the Company's multi-phased restructuring initiative, which is expected to drive additional annual savings of $12.0 million at a cost of $5.0 million. Management will continue to explore opportunities for additional cost savings, while working closely with vendors and customers as it relates to the timing of deliveries and pricing initiatives. Operating profit may continue to be impacted by changes in sales volume, mix and pricing, inflation, labor and freight costs, utility cost, and the levels of investments in growth and innovation that are made within each of the Industrial businesses. The ongoing events and

uncertainty within Ukraine have also driven delivery and other logistical challenges, further magnifying the impacts of increased freight cost, and utility cost and availability, mentioned above. Operating profit may also be impacted by enactment of or changes in tariffs, trade agreements and trade policies that may affect the cost, lead times and/or availability of goods, including but not limited to, steel and aluminum. Costs associated with new product and process introductions, restructuring and other cost initiatives, strategic investments and the integration of acquisitions may negatively impact operating profit.

The Aerospace segment reported sales of ~~$109.2~~$110.8 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022, ~~a 26.2%~~an 18.5% increase from the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021. Sales increased ~~14.0%~~1.8% and ~~55.0%~~54.7% within the OEM and Aftermarket businesses, respectively, relative to the comparable 2021 period. The modest year-over-year increase in OEM sales was driven primarily by ~~growing~~continued growth within narrow body airframe production. Sales within the Aftermarket Maintenance Repair and Overhaul ("MRO") and spare parts businesses also improved during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 relative to the comparable period as airline traffic and aircraft utilization have continued to ramp. During the ~~first half~~nine months of 2022, the Aerospace segment reported sales of ~~$209.9~~$320.7 million, a ~~24.8%~~22.6% increase from the first ~~half~~nine months of 2021, also driven by improvements within each of the Aerospace businesses. The sales increase during the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 was driven by volume growth within each of the Aerospace businesses. Sales within the segment are largely denominated in U.S. dollars and therefore were not significantly impacted by changes in foreign currency.

Operating profit at Aerospace in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 increased ~~82.4%~~55.6% from the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 to ~~$20.6~~$21.2 million. The increase in operating profit resulted primarily from the profit contribution of higher volumes within the ~~OEM and~~ Aftermarket businesses, as discussed above, and a $0.4 million favorable restructuring adjustment. Operating results were partially offset by unfavorable productivity, in part due to labor availability and supply chain challenges. Operating margin increased from ~~13.0%~~14.6% in the 2021 period to ~~18.8%~~19.2% in the 2022 period, driven primarily by the profit contribution of increased sales within the higher margin Aftermarket business. Operating margin increased from ~~13.3%~~13.8% to ~~17.6%~~18.1% in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022, also a result of mix across the businesses and, more specifically, the comparably higher Aftermarket sales during the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022. Operating profit in the first ~~half~~nine months of 2022 increased ~~65.1%~~61.6% from the first ~~half~~nine months of 2021 to ~~$36.9~~$58.2 million, also driven by strong Aftermarket performance within the current year period.

Outlook: Sales in the Aerospace OEM business are based on the general state of the aerospace market driven by the worldwide economy and are supported by its order backlog through participation in certain strategic commercial and defense-related engine and airframe programs. OEM sales grew modestly in 2022 relative to the comparable 2021 period, and orders have been healthy as customer aircraft production schedules continue to normalize. The Company expects, however, that the OEM business will see a continued recovery in demand for its manufactured components as narrow body airframe production remains strong, whereas wide body airframe production, albeit improving, remains soft. The duration and depth of the aerospace market disruptions remain uncertain at this time, however a full recovery to pre-pandemic levels is expected to take several years. Aerospace management continues to work with customers to evaluate engine and airframe build schedules, giving management the ability to react timely to such changes. Management is working closely with suppliers to align raw material schedules with production requirements. Management also remains focused on labor and supply chain constraints (including raw material and castings) that continued to impact the business ~~during the first half of 2022~~ and on executing long-term agreements while expanding its share of production on key programs. Backlog at OEM was ~~$753.4~~$728.6 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2022, an increase of ~~10.8%~~7.1% since December 31, 2021, at which time backlog was $680.1 million. Approximately 45% of OEM backlog is expected to be recognized over the next 12 months. A COVID-19 resurgence has the potential to materially impact the aerospace industry, including our more significant OEM customers, and it could materially affect our Aerospace business and results of operations. The Aerospace OEM business may also be impacted by changes in the content levels on certain platforms, changes in customer sourcing decisions, adjustments to customer inventory levels, labor and commodity availability (including the availability of commodities such as titanium sourced in Russia) and pricing, vendor sourcing capacity and the use of alternate materials. Additional impacts may include the redesign of parts, quantity of parts per engine, cost schedules agreed to under contract with the engine and airframe manufacturers, as well as the pursuit and duration of new programs. Fluctuations in fuel costs, interest rates, and potential changes in regulatory requirements could impact airlines' decisions on maintaining, deferring or canceling new aircraft purchases, in part based on the value associated with new fuel-efficient technologies and targets established by airlines to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The Aerospace Aftermarket business continues to demonstrate strong signs of recovery as airline traffic and aircraft utilization improve, aircraft are being removed from storage and placed into service and airlines begin to return to profitability. Domestic and international passenger traffic have improved as significant domestic health and travel restrictions have been ~~lifted.~~lifted with continued growth forecasted throughout the remainder of 2022. Certain international travel restrictions, ~~(albeit improving as lockdowns in China continue to ease)~~albeit easing and more ~~recent~~isolated, and geopolitical considerations continue to impact wide body aircraft utilization and corresponding Aftermarket orders, although freight-related air traffic remains strong. Sales in the Aerospace Aftermarket business may continue to be impacted by inventory management

and changes in customer sourcing, deferred or limited maintenance activity during engine shop visits and the use of surplus (used) material during the engine repair and overhaul process. Management believes that its Aerospace Aftermarket business continues to be competitively positioned based on well-established long-term customer relationships, including maintenance and repair contracts in the MRO business and long-term Revenue Sharing Programs ("RSPs") and Component Repair Programs ("CRPs"). The MRO business may also be impacted by airlines electing to closely manage their aftermarket costs as engine performance and quality improves. Fluctuations in fuel costs and potential changes in regulatory requirements and their corresponding impacts on airline profitability and behaviors within the aerospace industry could also impact levels and frequency of aircraft maintenance and overhaul activities, and airlines' decisions on maintaining, deferring or canceling new aircraft purchases, in part based on the economics associated with new fuel-efficient technologies.

Given the pressures on sales growth resulting from labor and supply chain constraints, the Company remains focused on ~~the~~ proactive cost management and improved productivity to mitigate continued pressure on operating profit. ~~Certain cost savings actions taken in~~Industry demand remains partially constrained by the ~~prior year remain in effect and have been critical in partially offsetting the lower profit contribution~~availability of ~~lower Aftermarket sales relative to pre-COVID-19 levels.~~skilled labor. Aerospace will continue to explore opportunities for additional productivity, ~~in 2022,~~ including working closely with vendors and customers as it relates to the timing of deliveries and pricing initiatives. Management also remains focused on growth through strategic investments, acquisition and new product and process introductions. Driving productivity ~~through the application of BES~~ continues as a key initiative. Operating profit is expected to be affected by the impact of the changes in sales volume noted above, mix and pricing, particularly as they relate to the higher profit Aftermarket RSP spare parts business, and investments made in each of its businesses. Operating profits may also be impacted by potential changes in tariffs, trade agreements and trade policies that may affect the cost and/or availability of goods and labor constraints. Costs associated with new product and process introductions, the physical transfer of work to other global regions, additional productivity initiatives and restructuring activities may also negatively impact operating profit.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Management assesses the Company's liquidity in terms of its overall ability to generate cash to fund its operating and investing activities. Of particular importance in the management of liquidity are cash flows generated from operating activities, capital expenditure levels, dividends, capital stock transactions, effective utilization of surplus cash positions overseas and adequate lines of credit. The Company currently maintains sufficient liquidity and will continue to evaluate ways to enhance its liquidity position as it navigates through the disrupted business environment that has resulted from COVID-19 and more recent geopolitical uncertainty, in addition to the macroeconomic trends discussed above.

The Company believes that its ability to generate cash from operations in excess of its internal operating needs is one of its financial strengths. Management continues to focus on cash flow and working capital management, and anticipates that operating activities in 2022 will generate sufficient cash to fund operations. See additional discussion regarding currently available debt facilities below. The Company continues to invest within its businesses, with its estimate of 2022 capital spending to be ~~approximately $40 to $45~~approximate $35 million.

In October 2014, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (“Note Purchase Agreement”), among the Company and New York Life Insurance Company, New York Life Insurance and Annuity Corporation and New York Life Insurance and Annuity Corporation Institutionally Owned Life Insurance Separate Account, as purchasers, for the issuance of $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.97% senior notes due October 17, 2024 (the “3.97% Senior Notes”). The 3.97% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and pay interest semi-annually on April 17 and October 17 of each year at an annual rate of 3.97%. The 3.97% Senior Notes will mature on October 17, 2024 unless earlier prepaid in accordance with their terms. Subject to certain conditions, the Company may, at its option, prepay all or any part of the 3.97% Senior Notes in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 3.97% Senior Notes so prepaid, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of prepayment, plus the Make-Whole Amount, as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement, with respect to such principal amount being prepaid. The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that are similar to the covenants required under the Amended Credit Agreement, as discussed below. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Note Purchase Agreement.

providing additional financing flexibility and access to liquidity. Additionally, the Sixth Amendment requires the Company to maintain a maximum ratio of Consolidated Total Debt, as defined, to Consolidated EBITDA, of not more than 3.75 times in each case, at the end of the four fiscal quarters, beginning with December 31, 2020 and regardless of whether a permitted acquisition, as defined, is consummated. Furthermore, the First NPA Amendment provides for (i) adjustments to the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA to conform to a more restrictive total leverage ratio that may be required under the Sixth Amendment, (ii) an increase in the amount of allowable add-back for restructuring charges when calculating Consolidated EBITDA from $15.0 million to $25.0 million and (iii) a required fee payment equal to 0.50% per annum times the daily outstanding principal amount of the note during each of the four fiscal quarters, following the quarter ended December 31, 2020, if the Company’s Senior Leverage Ratio, as defined, exceeds 3.25 times. In October 2020, the Company paid fees and expenses of $1.4 million in conjunction with executing the Amendments. Such fees have been deferred within Other Assets on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and are being amortized on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income.

On February 10, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the sixth amended and restated senior unsecured revolving credit agreement (the "Amended Credit Agreement") and retained Bank of America, N.A. as the Administrative Agent for the lenders. The Amended Credit Agreement maintains the $1,000.0 million of availability under the facility, while increasing the available borrowings under the accordion feature from $200.0 million to $250.0 million (aggregate availability of $1,250.0 million) and extends the maturity date through February 2026. The Amended Credit Agreement also adjusts the interest rate to either the Eurocurrency rate, as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement, plus a margin of 1.175% to 1.775% or the base rate, as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement, plus a margin of 0.175% to 0.775%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio at the time of the borrowing. Multi-currency borrowings, pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, bear interest at their respective interbank offered rate (i.e. Euribor) or 0.00% (higher of the two rates) plus a margin of between 1.175% to 1.775%. As with the earlier facility, the Company's borrowing capacity is limited by various debt covenants in the Amended Credit Agreement, as described further below. The Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a Senior Debt Ratio of not more than 3.25 times at the end of each fiscal quarter (or, if a permitted acquisition above $150.0 million is consummated, 3.50 times at the end of each of the first four fiscal quarters ending after the consummation of any such acquisition). In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a Total Debt Ratio of not more than 3.75 for each fiscal quarter (or, if a permitted acquisition above $150.0 million is consummated, 4.25 times at the end of each of the first four fiscal quarters ending after the consummation of any such acquisition). A ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to Consolidated Cash Interest Expense, as defined, of not less than 4.25, is required at the end of each fiscal quarter. The Amended Credit Agreement also contemplates the potential replacement of LIBOR (as defined below) with a successor financing rate, pursuant to the intent of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority to phase out use of LIBOR (see subsequent discussion below). See additional discussion immediately below regarding the Company's ongoing evaluation related to this potential change in financing rates. The Company paid fees and expenses of $4.3 million in conjunction with executing the Amended Credit Agreement. Such fees have been deferred within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized into interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income through its maturity. The Company subsequently amended the Credit Agreement on October 11, 2021 (the "LIBOR Transition Amendment"), defining certain applicable multi-currency borrowing rates that may be used as replacement rates for LIBOR, which is expected to be discontinued by reference rate reform. See Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as discussion below. As a result of the Company's contract amendments to address the replacement of LIBOR, the Company does not anticipate a material impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow as a result of this change.

On April 6, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Amended Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”), which (i) replaced the LIBOR interest rate for U.S. dollar loans to a term Secured Overnight Financing Rate including a Secured Overnight Financing Rate adjustment (or "SOFR", as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement), (ii) added a daily SOFR option for U.S. dollar loans and a term SOFR option for U.S. dollar loans, and (iii) added the ability to borrow foreign swing line loans based on the Euro Short Term Rate (as defined) with the same interest spread as the interest spread for SOFR Loans (as defined) and Alternative Currency Loans (defined as loans denominated in Euro, Sterling, Swiss Francs or Yen). In addition, Amendment No. 1 lowered the interest rate spread on (i) SOFR Loans and Alternative Currency Loans to a range from 0.975% to 1.70%, depending on the leverage ratio (the “Leverage Ratio”) of Consolidated Total Debt (as defined) to Consolidated EBITDA (as defined) as of the end of each fiscal quarter, and (ii) loans based on the Base Rate (as defined), to a range from 0.00% to 0.70%, depending on the Company’s Leverage Ratio as of the end of each fiscal quarter. Amendment No.

1 also lowered the facility fee, which is required to be paid by the Company under the Amended Credit Agreement and is calculated on the full amount of the revolving facility, to a range from 0.15% to 0.30%, depending on the Company’s Leverage Ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter. In April 2022, the Company paid fees and expenses of $1.0 million in conjunction with executing Amendment No. 1. Such fees are deferred within Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income.

represents a measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight, collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, and is calculated based on directly observable U.S. Treasury-backed repurchase transactions. The Company’s Amended Credit Agreement and corresponding interest rate swap are tied to LIBOR, with each maturing in February 2026, as noted above. In March 2021, the ICE Benchmark Association announced that it will extend the publication of overnight, 1, 3, 6 and 12 month LIBOR rates until June 30, 2023, while ceasing publication of all other LIBOR rates including 1 week and 2 month rates. The Company's Amended Credit Agreement was further amended in October 2021 and in April 2022 to address the replacement of LIBOR via the LIBOR Transition Agreement and Amendment No. 1, respectively, as detailed above. ~~The~~As a result of the Company's contract amendments to address the replacement of LIBOR, the Company does not anticipate a material impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash ~~flows.~~flow as a result of this change.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants. The Company anticipates continued compliance under the Agreements in each of the next four quarters. The Company's most restrictive financial covenant is the Senior Debt Ratio, which required the Company to maintain a ratio of Consolidated Senior Debt to Consolidated EBITDA of not more than 3.25 times at ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The actual ratio at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was ~~2.33~~2.26 times, as defined.

The Company did not repurchase any shares of the Company's common stock during the third or first quarters of 2022 or 2021. Management repurchased 0.2 million shares and 0.1 million shares of the Company's common stock under the Repurchase Program at a cost of $6.7 million and $5.2 million, respectively, during the second quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2021, respectively. ~~The Company did not repurchase any shares of the Company's common stock during the first quarter of 2022 or 2021.~~ Management will continue to evaluate additional repurchases based on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. See "Part II - Item 2 - Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds".

Operating cash flow may be supplemented with external borrowings to meet near-term business expansion needs and the Company's current financial commitments. The Company has assessed its credit facilities in conjunction with the Amended Credit Facility and currently expects that its bank syndicate, comprised of 12 banks, will continue to support its recently executed Amended Credit Agreement, which matures in February 2026. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had ~~$521.1~~$546.7 million unused and available for borrowings under its $1,000.0 million Amended Credit Facility, subject to covenants in the Company's revolving debt agreements. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, additional borrowings of ~~$355.2~~$369.0 million of Total Debt including ~~$230.0~~$245.4 million of Senior Debt would have been allowed under the financial covenants. The Company intends to use borrowings under its Amended Credit Agreement to support the Company's ongoing growth initiatives. The Company continues to analyze potential acquisition targets and end markets that meet its strategic criteria with an emphasis on proprietary, highly-engineered industrial technologies. The Company believes its credit facilities and access to capital markets, coupled with cash generated from operations, are adequate for its anticipated future requirements. The Company maintains communication with its bank syndicate as it continues to monitor its cash requirements.

The Company had no borrowings under short-term bank credit lines at ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement (the "2017 Swap") with one bank which converted the interest on the first $100.0 million of the Company's one-month LIBOR-based borrowings from a variable rate plus the borrowing spread to a fixed rate of 1.92% plus the borrowing spread. The 2017 Swap expired on January 31, 2022. On March 24, 2021, the Company entered into a new interest rate swap agreement (the "2021 Swap") with this same bank that commenced on January 31, 2022 and that converted the interest on the first $100.0 million of the Company's one-month LIBOR-based borrowings from a variable rate plus the borrowing spread to a fixed rate of 1.17% plus the borrowing spread. On April 6, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Amended Credit Agreement, which replaced the LIBOR interest rate for U.S. dollar loans with the SOFR rate (see Note 8). As a result, the Company subsequently amended the 2021 Swap (the "Amended 2021 Swap"), effective April 30, 2022, such that the one-month SOFR-based borrowing rate replaced the one-month LIBOR-based borrowing rate. The Amended 2021 Swap, which will expire on January 30, 2026, converts the interest on the first $100.0 million of the Company's one-month SOFR-based borrowings from a variable rate plus the borrowing spread to a fixed rate of 1.075% plus the borrowing spread. The execution of the Amended 2021 Swap did not result in a material impact on our business, financial

condition, results of operations or cash flow. The Amended 2021 Swap remained in place at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and these interest rate swap agreements ~~(the "Swaps")~~ are accounted for as cash flow hedges. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company's total borrowings were comprised of 37% fixed rate debt and 63% variable rate debt. At December 31, 2021, the Company's total borrowings were comprised of ~~35%~~34% fixed rate debt and ~~65%~~66% variable rate debt.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company held ~~$72.3~~$71.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, the majority of which was held by foreign subsidiaries. These amounts have no material regulatory or contractual restrictions and, on a long-term basis, are expected to primarily fund international investments.

The Amended Credit Agreement allows for certain adjustments within the calculation of the financial covenants, including the non-cash impairment charge of $68.2 million. Other adjustments ~~consists~~consist primarily of ~~restructuring charges,~~ due diligence and transaction expenses and net gains on the sale of assets as permitted under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company's financial covenants are measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, additional borrowings of ~~$355.2~~$369.0 million of Total Debt, including ~~$230.0~~$245.4 million of Senior Debt, would have been allowed under the covenants. Senior Debt includes primarily the borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement, the 3.97% Senior Notes and the borrowings under the lines of credit. The Company's unused committed credit facilities at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 were ~~$521.1~~$546.7 million; however, the borrowing capacity was limited by the debt covenants to ~~$355.2~~$369.0 million of Total Debt and ~~$230.0~~$245.4 million of Senior Debt at ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

OTHER MATTERS

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The most significant areas involving management judgments and estimates are described in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Actual results could differ from those estimates. There have been no material changes to such judgments and estimates.

Critical Accounting Policies

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets: Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are subject to impairment testing annually or more frequently if an event or change in circumstances indicates that the fair value of a reporting unit has been reduced below its carrying value. Management completes its annual impairment assessments during the second quarter of each year as of April 1. The Company utilizes the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the Step 1 quantitative goodwill impairment test in accordance with applicable accounting standards. Under the qualitative assessment, management considers relevant events and circumstances including but not limited to macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall unit performance and events directly affecting a unit. If the Company determines that the Step 1 quantitative impairment test is required, management estimates the fair value of the reporting unit

primarily using the income approach, which reflects management’s cash flow projections, and also evaluates the fair value using the market approach. Inherent in management’s development of cash flow projections are assumptions and estimates,

including those related to future earnings and growth rates and the weighted average cost of capital. The Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit with the carrying value of the reporting unit. If the fair values were to fall below the carrying values, the Company would recognize a non-cash impairment charge to income from operations for the amount by which the carrying amount of any reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, assuming the loss recognized does not exceed the total amount of goodwill for the reporting unit.

The Company performed its assessment as of April 1. Based on this assessment, the estimated fair value of the Automation reporting unit, which represents the 2018 acquisition of Gimatic, exceeded its carrying value, while the estimated fair value of each of the remaining reporting units significantly exceeded their carrying values. The Company evaluated deteriorating macro-economic conditions subsequent to the date of the assessment, including inflationary pressures, rising interest rates, worsening global supply chain constraints and demand outlook, which materialized during the second quarter of 2022, which impacted performance and outlook at Automation and resulted in a triggering event. Management revised its cash flow projections and weighted average cost of capital, resulting in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $68.2 million related to the Automation reporting unit as the estimated fair value of the reporting unit declined below its carrying value. The goodwill impairment charge was recorded during the three-month period ended June 30, 2022.

The reduction in the estimated fair value of the Automation reporting unit resulted primarily from the following factors:

•An increase in the weighted-average cost of capital used to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit, resulting primarily from a higher risk-free interest rate.

•A decrease in near term projected revenue growth rates and EBITDA margins reflecting ongoing macroeconomic conditions. Management revised downward its outlook for net sales, margins and adjusted cash flow forecasts to reflect deferred growth projections. Changes in projections were driven by deteriorating economic conditions, including inflationary pressures and continued global supply chain constraints, including semiconductor shortages on near-term automotive and broader industrial production, unfavorable productivity and geopolitical factors. Management considered recessionary pressures and corresponding uncertainties on the business as it relates to automotive end markets. While we expect growth in automation markets to continue to be strong in the long term, our growth rates are tempered in the near term by the automotive markets.

•A change in the tax amortization period of the Automation goodwill that was made by the Italian government, for tax purposes, from 18 years to 50 years. Italian tax authorities granted the business an opportunity to step up the basis of goodwill and intangibles to its fair market value in 2021, following the release of tax guidance related to the application of tax basis realignment rules for intangible property (“Realignment”). See further discussion related to the Realignment within Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Item 7) of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is incorporated by reference.

Many of the factors used in estimating fair value are outside the control of management, and these assumptions and estimates can change in future periods as a result of both Company-specific and overall economic conditions, including the impacts of inflationary pressures, increased interest rates and global supply chain constraints, amongst others. Estimating the fair value of individual reporting units also requires that management make continued assumptions and estimates regarding future plans and strategies, in addition to the consideration of economic, geopolitical and regulatory conditions. Management’s quantitative assessment includes a review of the potential impacts of current and projected market conditions from a market participant’s perspective on reporting units’ projected cash flows, growth rates and cost of capital to assess the likelihood of whether the fair value would be less than the carrying value. In the event there are future adverse changes in our estimated future cash flows and/or changes in key assumptions, including but not limited to discount rates, revenue growth or margins, and/or terminal growth rates, we may be required to record additional non-cash impairment charges to Automation goodwill. Following the June 2022 goodwill impairment, there is no excess of reporting unit fair value over the carrying amount, as the carrying value was reduced to fair ~~value~~value.

Based on our second quarter assessments and as noted above, the estimated fair value for each of the remaining reporting units significantly exceeded their carrying values, and there was no impairment at any other reporting units in 2022. Furthermore, a ten percentage point decrease in the fair value of any remaining reporting unit would not impact our conclusion that goodwill was not impaired. The Company also completed its annual impairment testing of its trade names, indefinite-lived intangible assets, in the second quarter of 2022 and determined that there were no impairments.

The Company has continued to evaluate the macro-economic conditions, as described above, throughout the third quarter of 2022. Based on our third quarter assessment, there was no impairment of goodwill as of September 30, 2022. In the event there are future adverse changes in our estimated future cash flows and/or changes in key assumptions, including but not limited to discount rates, revenue growth or margins, and/or terminal growth rates, we may be required to record additional non-cash impairment charges to Automation goodwill.

EBITDA

Earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and the goodwill impairment charge in 2022 ("EBITDA") was ~~$114.8~~$166.5 million for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$112.9~~$178.7 million for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. EBITDA is a measurement not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company defines EBITDA as net income plus interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization which the Company incurs in the normal course of business; in addition to these adjustments, the Company also excluded the impact of the goodwill impairment charge. The Company does not intend EBITDA to represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, and the reader should not consider it as an alternative to net income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other items calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's operating performance. The Company's definition of EBITDA may not be comparable with EBITDA as defined by other companies. The Company believes EBITDA is commonly used by financial analysts and others in the industries in which the Company operates and, thus, provides useful information to investors. Accordingly, the calculation has limitations depending on its use.

Following is a reconciliation of EBITDA to the Company's net income (in millions):
