(unaudited)
 
1.      BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The information included in the condensed consolidated financial statementsCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements is unaudited but includes all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods presented. These condensedCertain information and footnote disclosures, including critical and significant accounting policies normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted for this quarterly presentation. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements that are included in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2022.


2.      SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The condensed consolidated financial statementsCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of DMC Global Inc. ("DMC"(“DMC”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”) and its controlled subsidiaries. Only subsidiaries in which controlling interests are maintained are consolidated. All significant intercompany accounts, profits, and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Accounts Receivable

The Company measures expected credit losses for its accounts receivable using a current expected credit loss model, which is based on historical experience, adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company has disaggregated pools of accounts receivable balances by business, geography and/or customer risk profile and has used history and other experience to establish an allowance for credit losses at the time the receivable is recognized. To measure expected credit losses, we have elected to pool trade receivables by business segment and analyze each segment’s accounts receivable balances as separate populations. Within each segment, receivables exhibit similar risk characteristics.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our expected loss rate reflects uncertainties in market conditions present in our businesses, including supply chain disruptions, rising interest rates, as well as global geopolitical and economic instability. In addition, we reviewed receivables outstanding, including aged balances, and in circumstances where we are aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligation to us, we recorded a specific allowance against the amounts due, reducing the net receivable recognized to the amount we estimate will be collected. The offsetting expense for allowances recorded is charged to “Selling and distribution expenses” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, net provisions of $317 and $141, respectively, were recorded.

The following table summarizes year-to-date activity in the allowance for credit losses on receivables from customers in each of our business segments:

Redeemable noncontrolling interest

On December 23, 2021, DMC completed the acquisition of 60% of the membership interests in Arcadia Products, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company resulting from the conversion of Arcadia, Inc. (collectively, “Arcadia”). The limited liability company operating agreement for Arcadia (the “Operating Agreement”) contains a right for the Company to purchase the remaining interest in Arcadia from the minority interest holder on or after the third anniversary of the acquisition closing date (“Call Option”). Similarly, the minority interest holder of Arcadia has the right to sell its remaining interest in Arcadia to the Company on or after the third anniversary of the acquisition closing date (“Put Option”). Both the Call Option and Put Option enable the respective holder to exercise their rights based upon a predefined calculation as included within the Operating Agreement.

The Company initially accounted for the noncontrolling interest at its acquisition date fair value. We determined that neither the Call Option nor the Put Option meet the definition of a derivative as the Operating Agreement does not allow for contractual net settlement, the options cannot be settled outside the Operating Agreement through a market mechanism, and the underlying shares are deemed illiquid as they are not publicly traded and thus not considered readily convertible to cash. Additionally, the settlement price for both options is based upon a predefined calculation tied to adjusted earnings rather than a fixed price, and the formula is based upon a multiple of Arcadia’s average adjusted earnings over a three-year period. As such, we have concluded that the Call Option and Put Option are embedded within the noncontrolling interest and therefore do not represent freestanding instruments.

Given that the noncontrolling interest is subject to possible redemption with redemption rights that are not entirely within the control of the Company, we have concluded that the noncontrolling interest should be accounted for in accordance with ASC 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("ASC 480"). The noncontrolling interest is also probable of redemption, as the only criteria for the security to become redeemable is the passage of time. As such, the redeemable noncontrolling interest is classified in temporary equity, separate from the stockholders’ equity section, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

At each balance sheet date subsequent to acquisition, two separate calculations must be performed to determine the value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest. First, the redeemable noncontrolling interest must be accounted for in accordance with ASC 810 Consolidation (“ASC 810”) whereby income (loss) and cash distributions attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interest holder are ascribed. After this occurs, applicable provisions of ASC 480 must be considered to determine whether any further adjustment is necessary to increase the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest. An adjustment would only be necessary if the estimated settlement amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, per the terms of the Operating Agreement, exceeds the carrying value calculated in accordance with ASC 810. If such adjustment is required, the impact is immediately recorded to retained earnings and therefore does not impact the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations or Comprehensive Income (Loss). As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the redeemable noncontrolling interest is $187,522.

Promissory Note

In order to equalize after-tax consideration to the redeemable noncontrolling interest holder relative to an alternative transaction structure, immediately following the closing of the acquisition, the Company loaned $24,902 to the redeemable noncontrolling interest holder. The loan was evidenced by an unsecured promissory note, and the loan will be repaid out of proceeds from the sale of the redeemable noncontrolling interest holder’s interests in Arcadia, whether received upon exercise of the Put Option, the Call Option or upon sales to third parties permitted under the terms of the Operating Agreement. The loan must be repaid in full at the earlier of the exercise of the Put or Call Option, or by December 16, 2051, and has been recorded within “Other assets”in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from consideration paid by customers for tangible goods. The Company analyzes its different products by business segment to determine the appropriate basis for revenue recognition. Revenue is not generated from sources other than contracts with customers, and revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. There are no material upfront costs for operations that are incurred from contracts with customers.

Table of Contents

Our rights to payments for goods transferred to customers within our DynaEnergetics and NobelClad business segments arise when control is transferred at a point in time and not on any other criteria. Our rights to payments for goods transferred to customers within our Arcadia business segment also generally arise when control is transferred at a point in time; however, at times, control of certain customized, project-based products passes to the customer over time. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 90 days across all of our segments. In instances when we require customers to make advance payments prior to the shipment of their orders, we record a contract liability. We have determined that our contract liabilities do not include a significant financing component given the short duration between order initiation and order fulfillment within each of our segments. Refer to Note 9 "Business Segments" for disaggregated revenue disclosures.

See additional revenue recognition policy disclosures specific to each of our business segments within our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for each of the periods reported differs from the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to variation in contribution to consolidated pre-tax income from each jurisdiction for the respective periods, differences between the U.S. and foreign tax rates (which range from 20% to 35%) on earnings that have been permanently reinvested and changes to valuation allowances on our deferred tax assets.

We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Any effects of changes in income tax rates or tax laws are included in the provision for income taxes in the period of enactment. The deferred income tax impact of tax credits are recognized as an immediate adjustment to income tax expense. We recognize deferred tax assets for the expected future effects of all deductible temporary differences to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. We record a valuation allowance when, based on current circumstances, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In making such determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, recent financial operations and their associated valuation allowances, if any.


We recognize the tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits of the position;position, that the tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statementsCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements from such a position are measured as the largest benefit that is more likely than not of beingto be realized upon ultimate resolution. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in operating expense.

In the U.S., tax audits for the years 2012 through 2015 were closed during the second quarter 2017, and no adjustments to the Company's tax provisions were proposed. In Germany, tax audits are currently in progress for the years 2011 through 2014. Our tax provisions reflect our best estimate of state, local, federal, and foreign taxes. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company’s tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with our expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs.


Earnings Per Share

Unvested awards of share-based paymentsIn periods with rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents are considered participating securities for purposes of calculatingnet income, the Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) using a two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for (i) each class of common stock (the Company has a single class of common stock), and (ii) participating securities according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Restricted stock awards are considered participating securities in periods of net income as they receive non-forfeitable rights to dividends as common stock. Restricted stock awards do not participate in net losses.

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to the Company’s stockholders after adjustment of redeemable noncontrolling interest by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income (loss) available to common shareholders of the Company includes any adjustment to the redeemable noncontrolling interest value as of the end of the period presented. Refer to the "Redeemable noncontrolling interest" section above for further discussion of the calculation of the adjustment of the redeemable noncontrolling interest. Diluted EPS adjusts basic EPS for the effects of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance share units and other potentially dilutive financial instruments (dilutive securities), only in the periods in which we have net income and require the usesuch effect is dilutive. The effect of the two classdilutive securities is reflected in diluted EPS by application of the more dilutive of (1) the treasury stock method or (2) the two-class method. For the applicable periods presented, diluted EPS using the two-class method was more dilutive than the treasury stock method; as such, only the two-class method has been included below.

Deferred Compensation Plan

The Company maintains a Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) as part of its overall compensation package for calculating EPS. Under this method,certain employees. Participants are eligible to defer a portion of net income is allocatedtheir annual salary, their annual incentive bonus, and their equity awards through the Plan on a tax-deferred basis. Deferrals into the Plan are not matched or subsidized by the Company, nor are they eligible for above-market or preferential earnings.

The Plan provides for deferred compensation obligations to these participating securities and therefore is excluded from the calculationbe settled either by delivery of EPS allocated toa fixed number of shares of DMC’s common stock or in cash, in accordance with participant contributions and elections. For deferred equity awards, subsequent to equity award vesting and after a period prescribed by the Plan, participants can elect to diversify contributions of equity awards into other investment options available to Plan participants. Once diversified, such contributions will be settled by delivery of cash.

The Company has established a grantor trust commonly known as showna “rabbi trust” and contributed certain assets to satisfy the future obligations to participants in the table below.Plan. These assets are subject to potential claims of the Company’s general creditors. The assets held in the trust include unvested restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), vested company stock awards, company-owned life insurance (“COLI”) on certain current and former employees, and money market and mutual funds. Unvested RSAs and common stock held by the trust are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets within “Treasury stock, at cost, and company stock held for deferred compensation, at par” at the par value of the common stock or unvested RSAs. These accounts are not adjusted for subsequent changes in the fair value of the common stock. COLI is accounted for at the cash surrender value while money market and mutual funds held by the trust are accounted for at fair value.



Deferred compensation obligations that will be settled in cash are accounted for on an accrual basis in accordance with the terms of the Plan. These obligations are adjusted based on changes in value of the underlying investment options chosen by Plan participants. Deferred compensation obligations that will be settled by delivery of a fixed number of previously vested shares of the Company’s common stock are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest within “Common stock” at the par value of the common stock or unvested RSAs. These accounts are not adjusted for subsequent changes in the fair value of the common stock.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments


Fair value is defined 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. We are required to use an established hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the inputs to the valuation and the degree to which they are observable or not observable in the market. The three levels in the hierarchy are as follows:                   


Level 1 — Inputs to the valuation based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible as of the measurement date.


Level 2 — Inputs to the valuation include quoted prices in either markets that are not active, or in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.


Level 3 — Inputs to the valuation that are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. 

The highest priority is assigned to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.


The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, and payables, accrued expenses and lines of credit approximate their fair value. Our marketable securities are valued using quoted prices in active markets that are accessible as of the measurement date. The carrying value of our revolving loans and term loan under our credit facility, when outstanding, approximate their fair value because of the variable interest rate associated with those instruments, which reset each month at market interest rates. All of these account balances are considered Level 1 assets and liabilities.


Our foreign currency forward contracts are valued using quoted market prices or are determined using a yield curve model based on current market rates. As a result, we intend to classify these investmentsinstruments as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Money market funds and mutual funds of $3,175 as of September 30, 2023 and $8,444 as of December 31, 2022 held to satisfy future deferred compensation obligations are valued based upon the market values of underlying securities and are classified as Level 2 assets in the fair value hierarchy.


We did not did not hold any Level 3 assets or liabilities as of September 30, 20172023 or December 31, 2016. The goodwill impairment charge recorded in the third quarter of 2017 was calculated using Level 3 inputs.2022.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards


10

Table of Contents


In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standards update ("ASU") to change the measurement of inventory from lower of cost or market to lower of cost and net realizable value. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and the Company has adopted it as of the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” to simplify the method of measuring a goodwill impairment charge in the event a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value. In those circumstances, the new standard requires the Company to recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value. The Company adopted this standard during the third quarter of 2017 and applied it in the test for goodwill impairment described in Note 4.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2016, the FASB issued an ASU which removes the prohibition against the immediate recognition of the current and deferred income tax effects of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. This ASU is effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued an ASU which amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. This ASU will be effective beginning in the first quarter of 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued an ASU to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard and disclosure requirements for U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The standard can be adopted using either of two methods: (1) retrospective application to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients, as defined within the standard ("full retrospective") or (2) retrospective application with the cumulative effect of adoption recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures, as defined within the standard ("modified retrospective"). Management currently plans to adopt the ASU for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, as required by the standard, and plans to use the modified retrospective approach.
Currently, using internal resources, management is analyzing contracts from the NobelClad and DynaEnergetics segments to determine the technical accounting conclusions and the impact on business processes and systems of the new revenue standard. In our NobelClad business, contracts are often for unique projects, but the vast majority of contracts contain standard terms and conditions. In our DynaEnergetics business, we sell a range of products to a wide variety of customers, but the contracts also often contain similar terms and conditions.    We have reviewed contracts representing a majority of NobelClad'sconsidered all recent accounting pronouncements issued, but not yet effective, and DynaEnergetics' revenue for the year ended December 31, 2016 and have preliminarily concluded that applying the new standardwe do not expect any to those contracts would not have a material impacteffect on our financial statements.the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.


The Company is continuing to evaluate the impacts of our pending adoption, and our preliminary assessments are subject to change.

3.      INVENTORIES
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) andor net realizable value. CostSignificant cost elements included in inventory are material, labor, freight, subcontract costs, and manufacturing overhead. As necessary, we recordwrite down inventory to its net realizable value by recording provisions and maintain reserves for excess, slow moving and obsolete inventory. To determine reserve amounts, weWe regularly review inventory quantities on hand and values, and compare them to estimates of future product demand, market conditions, production requirements and technological developments.

4.      GOODWILL
As of December 31, 2016, all of the goodwill was recorded within our NobelClad segment. The changes to the carrying amount of goodwill during the period are summarized below:
  
Goodwill balance at December 31, 2016$16,097
Adjustment due to recognition of tax benefit of tax amortization of certain goodwill(450)
Adjustment due to exchange rate differences1,937
Goodwill impairment(17,584)
  
Goodwill balance at September 30, 2017$
As required under ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, we routinely review the carrying value of our net assets, including goodwill, to determine if any impairment has occurred. A quantitative assessment was conducted at June 30, 2017, at which time, based on existing conditions and management’s outlook, we determined there was no impairment. In the third quarter of 2017, activity in NobelClad’s primary end markets slowed considerably. NobelClad experienced a significant decline in its small size core maintenance bookings within the oil and gas industry. Additionally, certain large petrochemical projects previously forecasted to ship in the next twelve months were delayed, and uncertainty exists as to the ultimate timing of booking and shipping these potential orders. As a result, we determined that a potential indicator of goodwill impairment existed during the third quarter of 2017. We utilized an income approach (discounted cash flow analysis) to determine the fair value of the NobelClad reporting unit and concluded that our long-term forecasts were not materializing and needed to be revised downward. We believe the discounted cash flow approach is the most reliable indicator of fair value. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis included, among other measures, expected future sales, operating income, working capital and capital expenditures. The discount rate was determined using a peer-based, risk-adjusted weighted average cost of capital.

We determined that the estimated fair value of the NobelClad reporting unit was less than its carrying value primarily due to the factors described above and their related impact on expected future cash flows. During the third quarter, we adopted ASU 2017-04 which amends and simplifies how an entity measures a goodwill impairment loss by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. As the carrying value of the NobelClad reporting unit exceeded the fair value by more than the book value of goodwill, we recorded an impairment charge of $17,584 to fully impair the goodwill related to this reporting unit as of September 30, 2017.

For purchased intangible assets, we performed an assessment of the recoverability in accordance with the general valuation requirements set forth under ASC 360, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.” The result of this assessment indicated that no impairment existed for purchased intangible assets.

The change in the gross value of our unamortized purchased intangible assets at September 30, 2023 from December 31, 2016 to September 30, 20172022 was due to foreign currency translation and an adjustment due to recognition of tax benefit of tax amortization previously applied to certain goodwill related to the DynaEnergetics reporting unit. After the goodwill was written off at December 31, 2015, the tax amortization reduces other noncurrent intangible assets related to the historical acquisition.translation.

We generally expect to recognize the revenue associated with contract liabilities over a time period no longer than one year, but unforeseen circumstances can cause delays in shipments associated with contract liabilities, primarily supply chain delays and disruptions.

6.      LEASES

The Company leases real properties for use in manufacturing and as administrative and sales offices, and leases automobiles and office equipment. The Company determines if a contract contains a lease arrangement at the inception of the contract. For leases in which the Company is the lessee, leases are classified as either finance or operating. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are initially measured at the present value of lease payments over the lease term plus initial direct costs, if any. If a lease does not provide a discount rate and the implicit rate cannot be readily determined, an incremental borrowing rate is used to determine the present value of future lease payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Lease and non-lease components within the Company’s lease agreements are accounted for together. Variable lease payments are recognized in the period in which the obligation is incurred. The Company has no leases in which the Company is the lessor.

Nearly all of the Company’s leasing arrangements are classified as operating leases. ROU asset and lease liability balances were as follows for the periods presented:
September 30, 2023December 31, 2022
ROU asset$44,661 $48,470 
Current lease liability7,290 7,041 
Long-term lease liability39,288 43,001 
Total lease liability$46,578 $50,042 

The ROU asset is reported in “Other assets” while the current lease liability is reported in “Other current liabilities” and the long-term lease liability is reported in “Other long-term liabilities” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash paid for operating lease liabilities is recorded as operating cash outflows in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Arcadia leases certain office, manufacturing, distribution and warehouse facilities from entities affiliated with the redeemable noncontrolling interest holder and former president of Arcadia. There were eight related party leases in effect as of September 30, 2023, with expiration dates ranging from calendar years 2023 to 2026, excluding any renewal options. As of September 30, 20172023, the total ROU asset and December 31, 2016, customer advances totaled $2,772related lease liability recognized for related party leases was $26,291 and $2,619,$27,062, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, operating lease expense was $3,349 and $2,872, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, operating lease expense was $9,504 and $8,413, respectively. Related party lease expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $1,156 and $3,469, respectively, in each period and originated from several customers.is included in total operating lease expense.

Syndicated Credit Agreement


As ofOn December 31, 2016,23, 2021, we hadentered into a $75,000five-year $200,000 syndicated credit agreement (“credit facility”) that allowedwhich included a $150,000 Term Loan, which is amortizable at 10% of principal per year with a balloon payment for the outstanding balance upon the credit facility maturity date in 2026, and allows for revolving loans of $65,000 in U.S. dollars and $10,000 in alternative currencies as well as a $100,000up to $50,000. The credit facility has an accordion feature to increase the commitments in any of the loan classes subject to approval by applicable lenders. The credit facility matures on February 23, 2020.

On March 6, 2017, we entered into a third amendment of our credit facility which, among other changes, reduced the amount of borrowings available$100,000 under the credit facility, increased the maximum debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio for the first, second, and third quarters of 2017, and also waived the applicability of the minimum debt service coverage ratio for the first,

Loan Covenants and Restrictions
Our existing loan agreements includeThe credit facility includes various covenants and restrictions, certain of which relate to the payment of dividends or other distributions to stockholders; redemption of capital stock; incurrence ofincurring additional indebtedness; mortgaging, pledging or disposition of major assets; and maintenance of specified financial ratios.

The leverage ratio is defined in the credit facility as the ratio of Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the credit facility) on the last day of any trailing four quarter period to Consolidated Pro Forma EBITDA (as defined in the credit facility) for such period. The maximum leverage ratio permitted by our credit facility is 3.0 to 1.0 from the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and thereafter.

The debt service coverage ratio is defined in the credit facility as the ratio of Consolidated Pro Forma EBITDA less the sum of capital distributions paid in cash (other than those made with respect to preferred stock issued under the Operating Agreement), Consolidated Unfunded Capital Expenditures (as defined in the credit facility), and net cash income taxes divided by the sum of cash interest expense, any dividends on the preferred stock paid in cash, and scheduled principal payments on funded indebtedness. Under our credit facility, the minimum debt service coverage ratio permitted is 1.35 to 1.0.

As of September 30, 2017,2023, we were in compliance with all financial covenants and other provisions of our debt agreements.

We also maintain a line of credit with a German bank with a borrowing capacity of €7,000 for certain European operations. This line of credit is also used to issue bank guarantees to customers to secure advance payments made by them. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had no outstanding borrowings under this line of credit and bank guarantees of €2,491 and €2,221, respectively, were secured by the line of credit.

Included in “Long-term debt” are deferred debt issuance costs of $1,790 and $2,202 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Deferred debt issuance costs are being amortized over the remaining term of the credit facility, which expires on December 23, 2026.

8.     INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for each of the periods reported differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to variation in contribution to consolidated pre-tax income from each jurisdiction for the respective periods, differences between the U.S. and foreign tax rates (which range from 20% to 33%), permanent differences between book and taxable income, and income or loss attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interest holder.

Arcadia is treated as a partnership for U.S. tax purposes. With the exception of certain state taxes, income or loss flows through to the shareholders and is taxed at the shareholder level. Tax impacts related to income or loss from Arcadia that are included in consolidated pretax results but are attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interest holder are not included in the consolidated income tax provision.

We assess the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use existing deferred tax assets. Additionally, a three-year cumulative loss at a consolidated financial statement level may be viewed as negative evidence impacting a jurisdiction that by itself is not in a three-year cumulative loss position. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, we did not record any adjustments to previously established valuation allowances, except for corresponding adjustments related to changes in deferred tax asset balances. These adjustments had no impact on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company will continue to monitor the realizability of deferred tax assets and the need for valuation allowances and will record adjustments in the periods in which facts support such changes.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) provides that foreign earnings generally can be repatriated to the U.S. without federal tax consequence. We have assessed the assertion that cumulative earnings by our foreign subsidiaries are indefinitely reinvested. We continue to permanently reinvest the earnings of our international subsidiaries and therefore we do not provide for U.S. income taxes or withholding taxes that could result from the distribution of those earnings to the U.S. parent. If any such earnings were ultimately distributed to the U.S. in the form of dividends or otherwise, or if the shares of our international subsidiaries were sold or transferred, we could be subject to additional U.S. federal and state income taxes. Due to the multiple avenues in which earnings can be repatriated, and because a large portion of these earnings are not liquid, it is not practical to estimate the amount of additional taxes that might be payable on these amounts of undistributed foreign income.

9.      BUSINESS SEGMENTS
 
Our business is organized into twothree segments: NobelCladArcadia, DynaEnergetics and DynaEnergetics.NobelClad. In December 2021, DMC acquired a 60% controlling interest in Arcadia.

Changes in exchange rates with respect to these transactions result in unrealized gains or losses if such transactions are unsettled at the end of the reporting period or realized gains or losses at settlement of the transaction. During the third quarter of 2017, we began usingWe use foreign currency forward contracts to offset foreign exchange rate fluctuations on foreign currency denominated asset and liability positions. None of these contracts are designated as accounting hedges, and all changes in the fair value of the forward contracts are recognized in "Other“Other income (expense), net"net” within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Contingent Liabilities


The Company records an accrual for contingent liabilities when a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. If some amount within a range of loss appears to be a better estimate than any other amount within the range, that amount is accrued. When no amount within a range of loss appears to be a better estimate than any other amount, the lowest amount in the range is accrued.


Anti-dumpingLegal Proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and Countervailing Duties

In June 2015, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“U.S. Customs”) sent us a Notice of Action that proposed to classify certain of our imports as subject to anti-dumping duties pursuant to a 2010 anti-dumping duty (“AD”) order on Oil Country Tubular Goods (“OCTG”) from China. A companion countervailing duty (“CVD”) order on the same product is in effect as well. The Notice of Action covered one entry of certain raw material steel mechanical tubing made in China and imported into the U.S. from Canada by our DynaEnergetics segment during 2015 for use in manufacturing perforating guns.

In July 2015, we sent a response to U.S. Customs outlining the reasons our mechanical tubing imports do not fall within the scope of the AD order on OCTG from China and should not be subject to anti-dumping duties. U.S. Customs proposed to take similar action with respect to other entries of this product and requested an approximately $1,100 cash deposit or bond for AD/CVD duties.

In August 2015, we posted the bond of approximately $1,100 to U.S. Customs. Subsequently, U.S. Customs declined to conclude on the Company's assertion that the mechanical tubing the Company has been importing is not within the scope of the AD order on OCTG from China. As a result, on September 25, 2015 the Company filed a request for a scope ruling with the U.S. Department of Commerce ("Commerce Department").

On February 15, 2016, the Company received the Commerce Department’s scope ruling,legal proceedings which determined certain imports, primarily used for gun carrier tubing, are includedarise in the scopeordinary course of the AD/CVD orders on OCTG from China and thus are subject to AD/CVD duties.

On March 11, 2016, the Company filed an appeal with the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”) related to the Commerce Department’s scope ruling. On February 7, 2017, the CIT remanded the scope ruling to the Commerce Department to reconsider its determination. The Commerce Department filed its remand determination with the CIT on June 7, 2017 continuing to find that the Company's imports at issue are within the scope of the AD/CVD orders on OCTG from China. This determinationbusiness. However, litigation is subject to the CIT's reviewinherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the ongoing appeal,aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results except as set forth below:

Wage and Hour Matters

Felipe v. Arcadia, Inc. and One Stop Employment Services, Inc. (“One Stop”). This complaint was filed on October 22, 2021 in Los Angeles Superior Court and purports to allege a class action on behalf of all non-exempt California employees who worked on behalf of One Stop or Arcadia at any time during the four years preceding the date of the complaint. One Stop is a staffing agency which is continuing.

On December 27, 2016, we received notice from U.S. Customsprovides temporary workers, including to Arcadia. The complaint states claims under California’s labor laws and under its general Unfair Business Practices Act, California Business & Professions Code section 17200. The plaintiff has subsequently dismissed the class action claims without prejudice, acknowledging that it may pursue penalties against us related to the AD/CVD issue and demanding tender of alleged loss of AD/CVD duties in an amount of $3,049, which was covered by our reserve. WeArcadia’s arbitration agreement likely bars such class claims. The plaintiff also filed a response toseparate action under California’s Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”) alleging essentially the notice on February 6, 2017 asserting our positionsame wage and hour violations. This action included other Arcadia employees. The California Supreme Court has recently ruled that any decision to pursue penalties would be premature in light of the Remand Order and that penalties would not be appropriate under the applicable legal standards. On February 16, 2017, we received notice that U.S. Customs was seeking penalties in the amount of $14,783. U.S. Customs also reasserted its demand for tender of alleged loss of AD/CVD duties in the amount of $3,049. We tendered $3,049 in AD amounts (“Tendered Amounts”) on March 6, 2017 into a suspense account pending ultimate resolution of the AD/CVD case. We believe that this penalty assessment is premature and patently unreasonable in the face of the ongoing CIT appeal and that penaltiesrepresentative PAGA claims are not appropriate under applicable legal standards. Further, even if penaltiesbarred by the arbitration agreement. The plaintiff has commenced arbitration on individual claims, with arbitration set for 2024. In the meantime, the PAGA representative claims are found to be justified, we

believe the amount of penalties asserted by U.S. Customs is unreasonablestayed and subject to challenge on various grounds. We submitted a petition for relief and mitigation of penalties on May 17, 2017 asserting these and other points and seeking a stay of the penalty proceedings pending ultimate resolution of the CIT appeal and any further appeals. We are awaiting a response from U.S. Customs and U.S. Customs Headquarters on this petition.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded $84 of interest on its reserve for AD/CVD duties, bringing the total reserved amount related to AD/CVD duties as of September 30, 2017 to $3,585. The Tendered Amounts were applied to reduce the reserve. The Companylikely will continue to incur legal defense costs and could also be subject to additional interest and penalties. Accruals for the potential penalties discussed above are not reflected in our financial statements as of September 30, 2017 as we do not believe they are probable at this time.
Patent and Trademark Infringement

On September 22, 2015, GEODynamics, Inc., a US-based oil and gas perforating equipment manufacturer based in Fort Worth, TX, filed a patent and trademark infringement action against DynaEnergetics US, Inc., (“DynaEnergetics”), a wholly owned subsidiary of DMC, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (“District Court”) regarding alleged infringement of US Patent No. 9,080,431 granted on July 14, 2015 (the “431 patent”) and a related US trademark for REACTIVE, alleging that DynaEnergetics’ US sales of DPEXTM shaped charges infringe the ‘431 patent and the trademark. The 431 case went to trial in late March 2017, and on March 30, 2017, the jury found in favor of DynaEnergetics on all counts. A bench trial on related matters, including the trademark infringement action occurred on April 20, 2017, and the Court ordered cancellation of GEODynamics' REACTIVE trademark.

On July 1, 2016, GEODynamics filed a second patent infringement action against DynaEnergetics in District Court alleging infringement of US Patent No. 8,544,563 (the “563 patent”), also based on DynaEnergetics’ US sales of DPEX shaped charges. DynaEnergetics denies validity and infringement of the 563 patent and plans to vigorously defend against this lawsuit. On September 20, 2016, DynaEnergetics filed an Inter Parties Review (IPR) against the 563 patent at the U.S. Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”), requesting invalidation of the 563 patent. On March 17, 2017, DynaEnergetics' IPR request was instituted by the PTAB, and a decision is expected in early 2018. Trial on the 563 patent has beenremain stayed pending resolution of the IPR.

On April 28, 2017, GEODynamics filed a third patent infringement action against DynaEnergetics in District Court alleging infringement of U.S. Patent No. 8,220,394 (the “394 patent”), based on DynaEnergetics' sales of its DPEX and HaloFrac® shaped charges. DynaEnergetics denies validity and infringementindividual arbitration claims or completion of the 394 patent and planssettlement in principle described below.

Mayorga v. Arcadia, Inc. This complaint was filed on November 15, 2021 in Los Angeles Superior Court. It purported to vigorously defend against this lawsuit. On June 9, 2017, DynaEnergetics filedallege a motionclass action on behalf of all of the Company’s non-exempt California employees who worked at the Company within four years before the date the complaint was filed. It asserts claims substantially similar to dismiss for improper venue, orthose asserted in the alternativeFelipe case but does not include One Stop as a defendant. The plaintiff amended his complaint to change venue,delete class action claims and any individual non-PAGA claims. Accordingly, plaintiff’s complaint is now limited to PAGA collective action claims. The plaintiff has however commenced arbitration on a solely individual basis of his wage and hour claims, and an arbitrator has been appointed to adjudicate those claims. The remaining Mayorga PAGA representative claims have now been assigned to the District Court’s decision is pending. On August 28, 2017, DynaEnergetics filed an IPR againstsame judge as the 394 patent at the PTAB, requesting invalidationFelipe case. As in Felipe, those PAGA representative claims are currently stayed and will likely remain stayed until completion of the 394 patent.

On August 21, 2017, GEODynamics filed a patent infringement action against DynaEnergetics GmbH & Co. KG and DynaEnergetics Beteiligungs GmbH, both wholly owned subsidiaries of DMC (collectively, “DynaEnergetics EU”),settlement in the Regional Court of Düsseldorf, Germany, alleging infringement of European patent EP 1 671 013 B1 granted on June 29, 2011, a patent related to the 394 patent (the “EP 013 patent”), based on the manufacturing, sale and marketing of DPEX shaped charges in Germany. DynaEnergetics EU denies validity and infringementprinciple or of the EP 013 patentindividual arbitration if the settlement in principle is not consummated.

We have mediated the Mayorga claims, and plansas a result have reached a settlement in principle. Arcadia has agreed to vigorously defend against this lawsuit.

We do not believepay $375 of a total $600 settlement amount to resolve its portion of all PAGA claims in both the Mayorga and Felipe actions. As currently proposed, the parties have agreed in principle that the 563 patent,settlement will include the 394 patent, the EP 013 patent or infringementindividual claims based on the patents are valid, and we do not believe it is probable that we will incur a material loss on the 563 matter, the 394 matter or the EP 013 matter. However, if it is determined that the patents are valid and that DynaEnergetics or DynaEnergetics EU, as applicable, has infringed them, it is reasonably possible that our financial statements could be materially affected. We are not able to provide a reasonable estimate of the range of loss,plaintiff in Felipe. The settlement will become final only if the parties reach agreement on a final written document containing all settlement terms, and we have not accrued for anyonly if such losses. Such an evaluation includes, among other things, a determination ofsettlement is approved by the total number of infringing sales in the United States or infringing products manufactured in Germany, as applicable, what a reasonable royalty, if any, might be under the circumstances; or, alternatively, the scope of damages and the relevant period for which damages would apply, if any. court. There is no guarantee either condition will occur.

11.      RESTRUCTURING

There was no restructuring activity in the third quarter of 2017. In the second quarter of 2017, DynaEnergetics announced the closure of its operations in Kazakhstan after legislative changes increased our costs to do business while the overall sales in Kazakhstan were not significant to our results. During the quarter, we recorded severance expense, wrote off remaining receivables,

prepaid assets, and inventory, recorded an asset impairment to mark the fixed assets down to their salable value, and recorded to the statement of operations foreign exchange losses that had previously been recorded to the balance sheet through currency translation adjustments, due to the substantial liquidation of the entity. In the second quarter of 2016, DynaEnergetics reduced headcount in Troisdorf, Germany and Austin, Texas.
Total restructuring and impairment charges incurred for these programs are as follows and are reported in the “restructuring expenses” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2023, Arcadia reserved $375 which represents its current estimate of loss to resolve all PAGA claims. Under the changesEquity Purchase Agreement, the Company is indemnified for the liability recognized to date related to these matters. Therefore, an offsetting receivable was also recognized such that there was no impact to the restructuring liability associatedCompany’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

With respect to Felipe’s remaining individual claims and to the extent not resolved through the settlement in principle, Arcadia intends to vigorously defend against the Felipe and Mayorga actions. Due to the nature of these matters and inherent uncertainties, it is not possible to provide an evaluation of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or an estimate of the amount or range of potential loss, if any, in this circumstance.

12. CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER TRANSITION

During the first quarter of 2023, the Company and its former CEO entered into a separation agreement pursuant to which the former CEO received certain severance benefits consistent with these programs is summarized below:his pre-existing employment agreement with the Company. These severance benefits include 18 months of salary, a lump sum cash payment, and accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $1,621 of severance related expense and $3,040 of stock-based compensation expense related to the accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards.

Our approach helps our portfolio companies grow their core businesses, launch new initiatives, upgrade technologies and systems, expand their markets in which it participates. With an underlying focus on free-cash flow generation, our objectiveand improve their competitive positions. Our culture is to sustain and growfoster local innovation versus centralized control. Headquartered in Broomfield, Colorado, DMC trades on Nasdaq under the market sharesymbol “BOOM.”

Arcadia

On December 23, 2021, DMC completed the acquisition of our businesses through increased market penetration, development of new applications, and research and development of new and adjacent products that can be sold across our global network of sales and distribution facilities. We routinely explore acquisitions of related businesses that could strengthen or add to our existing product portfolios, or expand our geographic footprint and market presence. We also seek acquisition opportunities outside our current markets that would complement our existing businesses and enable us to build a stronger and more diverse company.
NobelClad

NobelClad is a global leader in the production of explosion-welded clad metal plates for use in the construction of corrosion resistant industrial processing equipment and specialized transition joints. While a large portion60% of the demand for our clad metalmembership interests in Arcadia Products, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company resulting from the conversion of Arcadia, Inc. (collectively, “Arcadia”). Arcadia supplies architectural building products, is driven by new plantincluding exterior and interior framing systems, curtain walls, windows, doors, and interior partitions to the commercial construction market. Additionally, Arcadia also supplies customized windows and large plant expansion projects, maintenance and retrofit projects at existing chemical processing, petrochemical processing, oil refining, and aluminum smelting facilities also account for a significant portion of total demand. These industries tenddoors to be cyclical in nature and timing of new order inflow remains difficult to predict. We use backlog as a primary means to measure the immediate outlook for our NobelClad business.  We define “backlog” at any given point in time as all firm, unfulfilled purchase orders and commitments at that time.  Most firm purchase orders and commitments are realized, and we expect to fill most backlog orders within the following 12 months. NobelClad's backlog increased to $31,994 at September 30, 2017 from $31,634 at December 31, 2016. high-end residential construction market.

Cost of products sold for NobelCladArcadia includes the cost of metalsaluminum, paint, and alloysother raw materials used to manufacture clad metal plates, the cost of explosives,in manufacturing as well as employee compensation and benefits, freight, outside processing costs,manufacturing facility lease expense, depreciation of manufacturing facilities and equipment, manufacturing supplies and other manufacturing overhead expenses.

In the third quarter of 2017, activity in NobelClad’s primary end markets slowed considerably. NobelClad experienced a significant decline in its small size core maintenance bookings within the oil and gas industry. Additionally, certain large petrochemical projects previously forecasted to ship in the next twelve months were delayed, and uncertainty exists as to the ultimate timing of booking and shipping these potential orders. As a result, we determined that a potential indicator of goodwill impairment existed during the third quarter of 2017. We utilized an income approach (discounted cash flow analysis) to determine the fair value of the NobelClad reporting unit and concluded that our long-term forecasts were not materializing and needed to be revised downward. We determined that the estimated fair value of the NobelClad reporting unit was less than its carrying value due primarily to the factors described above and their related impact on expected future cash flows. As the carrying value of the NobelClad reporting unit exceeded the fair value by more than the book value of goodwill, we recorded an impairment charge of $17,584 to fully impair the goodwill related to this reporting unit as of September 30, 2017.


DynaEnergetics


DynaEnergetics designs, manufactures and distributes highly engineered products utilized by the global oil and gas industry principally to perforatefor the perforation of oil and gas wells. These products are primarily sold to large, mid-sized, and small oilfield service companies in the U.S., Europe, Canada, South America, Africa, the Middle East, Russia, and Asia. DynaEnergetics also sells directly to end-users. The market for perforating products, which are used during the well completion process, generally corresponds with oil and gas exploration and production activity. Exploration activity over the last several years has led toWell completion operations are increasingly complex, well completion operations, which in turn has increased the demand for high qualityintrinsically-safe, reliable and technically advanced perforating products.systems.

Cost of products sold for DynaEnergetics includes the cost of metals, explosives and other raw materials used to manufacture shaped charges, detonating products and perforating guns as well as employee compensation and benefits, depreciation of manufacturing facilities and equipment, manufacturing supplies freight and other manufacturing overhead expenses.


NobelClad

NobelClad produces explosion-welded clad metal plates for use in the construction of corrosion resistant industrial processing equipment and specialized transition joints for commuter rail cars, ships, and liquified natural gas (LNG) processing equipment. While most demand for our products is driven by maintenance and retrofit projects at existing plants and facilities, new projects for petrochemical processing, oil refining, and aluminum smelting facilities also account for a significant portion of total demand. These industries tend to be cyclical in nature and timing of new order inflow remains difficult to predict. We use backlog, defined as all unfilled firm purchase orders and commitments at that time, to measure the immediate outlook for our NobelClad business. Most firm purchase orders and commitments are realized and shipped within twelve months. NobelClad's backlog increased to $60,821 at September 30, 2023 from $55,451 at December 31, 2022.

Cost of products sold for NobelClad includes the cost of metals, explosive powders and other raw materials used to manufacture clad metal plates and transition joints as well as employee compensation and benefits, outside processing costs, depreciation of manufacturing equipment, manufacturing facility lease expense, supplies and other manufacturing overhead expenses.

Factors Affecting Results


During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the following factors most affected our financial performance:

DynaEnergeticsConsolidated sales of $35,320were $172,147 in the third quarter of 2017 increased 80%2023 versus $174,465 in the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of 1%. The decline in sales performance was driven by lower sales at Arcadia.

Arcadia reported sales of $71,455 in the third quarter of 2023, representing a decrease of 11% compared with the third quarter of 20162022. The decrease was largely attributable to lower customer pricing in response to reductions in base aluminum metal prices, and increased 32% sequentially versus the second quarter of 2017. Despite a slowdown in the growth of the U.S. onshore rig count, the unconventional well-completions sector remained very active during the third quarter of 2017, reflecting increased completion intensity and longer laterals. This fueled stronglower sales volumes driven by softer demand for DynaEnergetics’ intrinsically safe perforatingcommercial interior products which includeand brief operational challenges from the DynaSelect detonator and the factory-assembled, performance-assured DynaStageimplementation of a new ERP system.
NobelClad’s
DynaEnergetics’ sales of $16,841$72,998 in the third quarter of 2017 were essentially flat2023 increased 4% compared towith the third quarter of 20162022 due to an increase in unit sales of DS perforating systems. International sales increased 13% while North American sales increased 2%. North American sales growth was impacted by a decline in active drilling rigs and decreased 17% from the second quarterfracking crews which resulted in lower well completion activity.

NobelClad’s sales of 2017. In 2017, weak capital spending in NobelClad's industrial infrastructure and energy markets has led to a downturn in both large-project orders and smaller repair and maintenance work.

Business Outlook

To address the accelerating demand for its intrinsically-safe perforating products, DynaEnergetics recently announced plans to significantly expand the manufacturing and assembly capacity of its DynaSelect, DynaStage and shaped charge product lines. A new 40,000 square foot manufacturing center is scheduled to open during the third quarter of 20182023 compared with $30,544 in Blum, Texas, where the businessthird quarter of 2022.

Cash and marketable securities of $35,576 at September 30, 2023 increased $10,432 from cash of $25,144 at December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to cash generated from operations.

The Company’s leverage ratio, calculated in accordance with its credit facility, was 1.26 to 1.0 as of September 30, 2023 in comparison to the maximum ratio permitted of 3.0 to 1.0. The Company’s adjusted leverage ratio, calculated using net debt as of September 30, 2023, was 0.89 to 1.0.

Outlook

Arcadia serves the commercial building products market primarily in the western and southwestern United States, and the high-end residential market across the United States. Phase one of a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system went live in July 2023, and is expected to double its shaped charge production capacity. A second automated DynaSelect detonator line is planned to be installed next year at DynaEnergetics’ facility in Troisdorf Germany,enhance operating efficiencies and the internal control environment throughout Arcadia. While the ERP changeover led to a brief operational slowdown early in the quarter, Arcadia’s performance improved as the third quarter progressed. The business also plansexpects to re-open its DynaStage assembly center in Mt. Braddock Pennsylvaniabuild upon these improvements in the fourth quarter, of 2017.and is benefiting from steady demand in its diverse commercial exterior and high-end residential markets. The business expects that these improvements will be partially offset by seasonality and annual facility maintenance.
The recent
In North America, third quarter well completion activity declined by approximately 10% versus the second quarter, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. This decline, coupled with customer project delays experienced late in NobelClad’s core repair and maintenance orders from the downstream energy industry has continued intoquarter, negatively impacted demand at DynaEnergetics. We believe North American well completion activity will remain soft during the fourth quarter of 2017.2023 based on a decline in the number of active drilling rigs and fracking crews. DynaEnergetics is in the process of implementing more efficient manufacturing processes and is introducing several premium products in 2023 that collectively are expected to improve long-term profit margins. In October 2017, recent years and in the first quarter of 2023, patent litigation expenses have increased our general and administrative expenses; however, these costs were substantially lower in the second and third quarters of 2023 and are expected to remain lower for the balance of the year.

NobelClad receivedis experiencing increasing demand for its Cylindra™ cryogenic transition joints used in the LNG industry, while repair and maintenance work from downstream energy and petrochemical industries is also contributing to improved financial performance. NobelClad’s backlog was $60,821 as of September 30, 2023, up from $55,451 as of December 31, 2022. We expect to ship most orders in our backlog within 12 months.

In January 2023, the Company announced the appointment of Michael Kuta and David Aldous as interim co-President and Chief Executive Officers. In addition, DMC named Eric Walter as its new Chief Financial Officer, and Arcadia named James Chilcoff as its new President. On August 4, 2023, the Company appointed Michael Kuta as President and Chief Executive Officer and a $7.4 million purchase order related todirector. David Aldous remains a petrochemical project in Asia. The order will be reflected in NobelClad's fourth quarter backlog.member of the Company’s Board of Directors and was re-appointed as Chairman effective August 4, 2023. In connection with these leadership changes, near-term priorities include the acceleration of Arcadia’s integration, strengthening the profitability of DynaEnergetics, achieving commercial success with new products introduced by NobelClad, and improving the Company’s overall cash flow through more effective working capital management and targeted cost reductions.


Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures


Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) measure that we believe provides an important indicator of our ongoing operating performance and that we use in operational and financial decision-making. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus or minus net interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from EBITDA stock-based compensation, restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, othernonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance (as further described in the tables below). Adjusted EBITDA attributable to DMC Global Inc. stockholders excludes the Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the 40% redeemable noncontrolling interest in Arcadia. For our business segments, Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating income (loss) plus depreciation, amortization, allocated stock-based compensation (if applicable), restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing operating performance. As a result, internal management reports used during monthly operating reviews feature Adjusted EBITDA and certain management incentive awards are based, in part, on the amount of Adjusted EBITDA achieved during the year.


20

TableAdjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) attributable to DMC Global Inc. stockholders plus restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as diluted earnings per share attributable to DMC Global Inc. stockholders (exclusive of Contentsadjustment of redeemable noncontrolling interest) plus restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance.



Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings per share are presented because management believes these measures are useful to understand the effects of restructuring, impairment, and other nonrecurring charges on DMC’s net income (loss) and diluted earnings per share, respectively.


Net Debtdebt is a non-GAAP measure we use to supplement information in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We define net debt as lines of credittotal debt less total cash, cash equivalents and cash equivalents.marketable securities. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses this information to evaluate its performance, and we believe that certain investors may do the same.


The presence of non-GAAP financial measures in this report is not intended to suggest that such measures be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or as superior to, DMC’s GAAP information, and investors are cautioned that the non-GAAP financial measures are limited in their usefulness. BecauseGiven that not all companies use identical calculations, DMC’s presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Net sales increasedwere $172,147 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, or a decrease of 1% compared with 2016the same period in 2022, primarily due to an 80% increase in DynaEnergetics' netlower sales from increased demand for its intrinsically-safe, addressable initiating systems, coupled with an active unconventional well-completion industry in North America.at Arcadia.


Gross profit percentage increased from a higher proportion was 30.6% versus 29.4% in the same period in 2022. The improvement compared to prior year was attributable to margin recovery at Arcadia as reductions in base aluminum metal prices exceeded declines in customer pricing. Favorable project and regional mix, as well as better absorption of DynaEnergetics’ net sales relativefixed manufacturing overhead expenses at NobelClad also contributed to NobelClad and better price and product mix in DynaEnergetics.the improved performance.


General and administrative expenses increaseddecreased $3,537 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with 2016the same period in 2022. The lower expense was driven by decreases in patent infringement litigation costs at DynaEnergetics of $1,305, business segment compensation costs of $1,014, ERP system implementation costs at NobelClad of $447, stock-based compensation expense of $374, and depreciation expense of $135.

Selling and distribution expenses increased $1,706 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with the same period in 2022. The higher expense was primarily due to higher outside legal expensesincreases in compensation costs of $1,011, bad debt expense of $354, and freight and supplies costs of $228.

Amortization of purchased intangible assets decreased $1,718 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as the Arcadia customer backlog purchased intangible asset was fully amortized in 2022.

Operating income was $17,702 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $13,401 in the same period in 2022. The increase in operating income was the result of improved financial performance at Arcadia and NobelClad.

Other income, net of$302for the three months ended September 30, 2023 primarily related to patent infringement defense costs, higher salaries and wages, and higher stock-based compensation expense.

Selling and distribution increased compared with 2016 primarily due to higher salaries and wages.

Restructuring expenses in 2016 included severance adjustments related to headcount reductions announced in prior quarters, lease termination costs to exit administrative offices in Austin, Texas, and costs related to relocation of perforating gun manufacturing in Germany.

Goodwill impairment charge relates to fully impairing NobelClad's goodwill balance.

Operating loss increased compared with 2016 primarily due to the goodwill impairment charge, which partially was offset by improved earnings in our DynaEnergetics segment.

None of these contracts are designated as accounting hedges, and all changes in the fair value of the forward contracts are recognized immediately in "Other income (expense), net" within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Interest income (expense),expense, net increased compared with 2016 due to higher interest rates on a higher average outstanding line of credit balance.

Income tax provision of $812 for the third quarter of 2017 compared with a provision of $272 for the third quarter of 2016. We currently are unable to recognize tax benefits associated with losses incurred in certain jurisdictions due to valuation allowances recorded against deferred tax assets in those jurisdictions.

Net loss $2,392for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $14,064, or $0.98 per diluted share,2023 increased 35% compared with $3,136,the same period in 2022 due to an increase in floating interest rates related to the Term Loan.

Income tax provision of $4,087 was recorded on income before income taxes of $15,612 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Our most significant operations are in the United States, which has a 21% statutory income tax rate, and Germany, which has a 32% combined statutory income tax rate. The mix of income or $0.22 per diluted share,loss before income taxes between these jurisdictions is one of the primary drivers of the difference between our 21% statutory tax rate and our effective tax rate. The current quarter effective rate was impacted unfavorably by the geographic mix of pretax income and state taxes. The operating results of Arcadia that are attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interest holder are not taxed at DMC, which resulted in a partially offsetting favorable impact to the effective tax rate. We recorded an income tax provision of $3,537 on income before income taxes of $11,750 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The prior year rate was impacted by the same factors previously discussed.

This increase partially was offset by a 21% decline in NobelClad's net sales from a recent decline in core repair and maintenance orders from the downstream energy industry and absence of large-project bookings in 2017. In the second quarter of 2016 NobelClad shipped a large semiconductor-related project.

Gross profit percentage increased from higher average selling prices and improved product mix in DynaEnergetics, combined with better project mix in NobelClad.

General and administrative expenses increased compared with 20162022, primarily due to higher outside legal expenses related to patent infringement defense costs as well as higher salaries and wages.

Selling and distribution expenses increased compared with 2016 principally due to an increase in salariesunit sales of DynaEnergetics’ DS perforating systems, higher customer pricing at Arcadia in response to raw material and benefitslabor inflation, as well as improved performance at NobelClad attributable to increased activity in core energy and higher outside services expenses.petrochemical end markets.


Restructuring expenses for 2017 relatedGross profit percentage was 30.6% versus 29.3% in 2022. The improvement compared to the announced closure of DynaEnergetics operations in Kazakhstan. In 2016, restructuring expenses related to severance for headcount reductions at DynaEnergetics locations in Troisdorf, Germany and Austin, Texas, lease termination costs to exit administrative offices in Austin, Texas, costs related to relocation of perforating gun manufacturing in Germany, and the accelerated vesting of stock awards in connection with the elimination of certain positions.

Goodwill impairment charge relates to fully impairing NobelClad's goodwill balance.

Operating loss increased compared with 2016 dueprior year was attributable to the goodwill impairment charge. However, the charge was offset byimpact of higher sales volume on fixed manufacturing overhead expenses, primarily due to increases in unit sales of DS perforating systems at DynaEnergetics. Favorable project mix at NobelClad and favorable product mixmargin recovery at Arcadia also contributed to the improved performance.

General and administrative expenses increased $3,955 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared with the same period in DynaEnergetics.2022. The increase was driven by $4,343 of CEO transition charges, which was partially offset by lower business related travel of $472.


Selling and distribution expenses increased $5,595 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared with the same period in 2022. The higher expense was primarily due to increases in compensation costs of $3,738, marketing and other outside services costs of $1,204, and freight and supplies costs of $506.

Amortization of purchased intangible assets decreased $16,153 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as the Arcadia customer backlog purchased intangible asset was fully amortized in 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We have historically financed our operations from a combination of internally generated cash flow, revolving credit borrowings, and various long-term debt arrangements. Our net debt position was $83,884 at September 30, 2023 compared to $107,654 at December 31, 2022. The decrease in net debt through the first nine months of 2023 was due primarily to $13,750 in Term Loan repayments and a $7,516 investment in marketable securities. We have a fully undrawn $50,000 revolving credit facility at September 30, 2023.

35

We believe that cash and cash equivalents on hand, marketable securities, cash flow from operations, and funds available under our current credit facilities and any future replacement thereof will be sufficient to fund the working capital, required minimum debt interest service dividend payments, and other capital expenditure requirements of our current business operations for the foreseeable future.

29



We may also execute capital markets transactions, including at-the-market offering programs, to raise additional funds if we believe market conditions are favorable, but there can be no assurance that any future capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Nevertheless, our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations will depend upon our success in executing our strategies. If we are unable to (i) realize sales from our backlog; (ii) secure new customer orders; (iii) sellcontinue selling products at attractiveprofitable margins; and (iv) continue to implement cost-effective internal processes, our ability to meet cash requirements through operating activities could be impacted. Also, continued heightened litigation costs could negatively impact our ability to meet future cash requirements. Furthermore, any restriction on the availability of borrowings under our credit facilities could also negatively affect our ability to meet future cash requirements. In March 2017, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which has been declared effective, and on which we registered for sale upWe will continue to $150 million of certain of our securities from time to time and on terms that we may determine in the future. Our ability to access this capital may be limited bymonitor financial market conditions, atincluding the time of any future potential offering. There can be no assurance that any suchrelated impact on credit availability and capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all.markets.


Debt facilities
 
As ofOn December 31, 2016,23, 2021, we hadentered into a $75,000five-year $200,000 syndicated credit agreement (“credit facility”) that allowedwhich included a $150,000 Term Loan, which is amortizable at 10% of principal per year with a balloon payment for the outstanding balance upon the credit facility maturity date in 2026, and allows for revolving loans of $65,000 in U.S. dollars and $10,000 in alternative currencies as well as a $25,000up to $50,000. The credit facility has an accordion feature to increase the commitments in any of the loan classes subject to approval by applicable lenders. The credit facility matures on February 23, 2020.

On March 6, 2017, we entered into a third amendment of our credit facility which, among other changes, reduced the amount of borrowings available$100,000 under the credit facility, increased the maximum debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio for the first, second, and third quarters of 2017, and also waived the applicability of the minimum debt service coverage ratio for the first, second, and third quarters of 2017, and addedrevolving loan class and/or by adding a minimum EBITDA covenant for those same periods and is inapplicable thereafter. The minimum EBTIDA coverage covenant requires Consolidated Pro Forma EBITDA (as defined in the agreement) of at least $6,500 for the September 30, 2017 reporting period. The maturity of the credit facility did not change with the amendment.
After the amendment, our credit facility allows for borrowings up to $35,000, consisting of revolving loans of $30,000 in U.S. dollars and $5,000 in alternate currencies as well as a $25,000 accordion feature to increase the commitments in any of theterm loan classes subject to approval by applicable lenders. We also maintain a line of credit with a German bank for certain DynaEnergetics operations. This line of credit provides a borrowing capacity of €4,000. 

As of September 30, 2017, U.S. dollar revolving loans of $22,250 were outstanding under our credit facility.  While we had approximately $12,750 of available revolving credit loan capacity as of September 30, 2017 under our various credit facilities, future borrowings are subject to compliance with financial covenants that could significantly limit such availability.
There are currently two significant financial covenants under our credit facility, a debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio ("leverage ratio") and a minimum EBITDA covenant ratio. The leverage ratio is defined inentered into the credit facility with a syndicate of four banks, with KeyBank, N.A. acting as amended, for any trailing four quarter period,administrative agent. The credit facility is secured by the assets of DMC including accounts receivable, inventory, and fixed assets, including Arcadia and its subsidiary, as well as guarantees and share pledges by DMC and its subsidiaries.

Borrowings under the ratio of Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (as defined$150,000 Term Loan and $50,000 revolving loan limit can be in the agreement)form of Adjusted Daily Simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") loans or one month Adjusted Term SOFR loans. Additionally, U.S. dollar borrowings on the last dayrevolving loan can be in the form of such periodBase Rate loans (Base Rate borrowings are based on the greater of the administrative agent’s Prime rate, an adjusted Federal Funds rate or an adjusted SOFR rate). SOFR loans bear interest at the applicable SOFR rate plus an applicable margin (varying from 1.50% to Consolidated Pro Forma EBITDA for such period. For3.00%). Base Rate loans bear interest at the September 30, 2017 reporting period, the maximum leverage ratio permitted by our 2015 syndicateddefined Base rate plus an applicable margin (varying from 0.50% to 2.00%).

The credit facility as amended, was 3.50 to 1.0. The actual leverage ratio as of September 30, 2017, calculated in accordance with the credit facility, as amended, was 1.40 to 1.0. The minimum EBTIDA coverage covenant requires Consolidated Pro Forma EBITDA of at least $6,500 for the September 30, 2017 reporting period. The actual Consolidated Pro Forma EBITDA for the September 30, 2017 period, calculated in accordance with the credit facility, as amended, was $16,982.
Our credit facility also includes various other covenants and restrictions, certain of which relate to the payment of dividends or other distributions to stockholders,stockholders; redemption of capital stock, incurrence ofstock; incurring additional indebtedness,indebtedness; mortgaging, and pledging or disposition of major assets.assets; and maintenance of specified ratios. As of September 30, 2017,2023, we were in compliance with all financial covenants and other provisions of our debt agreements.

The leverage ratio is defined in the credit facility as the ratio of Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the credit facility) on the last day of any trailing four quarter period to Consolidated Pro Forma EBITDA (as defined in the credit facility) for such period. Consolidated Pro Forma EBITDA equals Adjusted EBITDA as calculated within the Consolidated Results of Operations section plus certain predefined add-backs, which include up to $5,000 for one-time integration expenses incurred in the twelve-month period following the closing date of the Arcadia acquisition. The maximum leverage ratio permitted by our credit facility is 3.0 to 1.0 from the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and thereafter. The actual leverage ratio as of September 30, 2023, calculated in accordance with the credit facility, as amended, was 1.26 to 1.0.

The debt service coverage ratio is defined in the credit facility as the ratio of Consolidated Pro Forma EBITDA less the sum of capital distributions paid in cash (other than those made with respect to preferred stock issued under the Operating Agreement), Consolidated Unfunded Capital Expenditures (as defined in the credit facility), and net cash income taxes divided by the sum of cash interest expense, any dividends on the preferred stock paid in cash, and scheduled principal payments on funded indebtedness. Under our credit facility, the minimum debt service coverage ratio permitted is 1.35 to 1.0. The actual debt service coverage ratio for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2023 was 3.30 to 1.0.

As of September 30, 2023, borrowings of $121,250 on the Term Loan under our credit facility were outstanding. No amounts were outstanding on the $50,000 revolver as of September 30, 2023.

We also maintain a line of credit with a German bank for certain European operations. This line of credit provides a borrowing capacity of €7,000 on which no amounts were outstanding as of September 30, 2023.

Similarly, the minority interest holder of Arcadia has the right to sell its remaining interest in Arcadia to the Company on or after the third anniversary of the acquisition closing date (“Put Option”). Both the Call Option and Put Option enable the respective holder to exercise their rights based upon a predefined calculation as included within the Operating Agreement.

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report, and they have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


During the third quarter of 2023, Arcadia implemented a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. As a result of this transition, certain changes to our processes and procedures resulted in changes to our internal controls over financial reporting. We expect the new ERP will strengthen our internal financial controls by providing operational and reporting enhancements. For further discussion of the risks associated with Arcadia’s internal control environment, see risk factor, “The acquisition of Arcadia is expected to materially complicate the timely achievement of effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price” in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

There were no other changes that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
