The Company recognizes customer deposits and deferred revenue as net sales after control of the goods or services has been transferred to the customer and all revenue recognition criteria are met. The Company bills customers for extended warranties upon entering into the agreement with the customer, resulting in deferred revenue that is recognized over the period of the extended warranty contract. The Company recognizes revenue over time on contracts for the sale of ~~robotics~~large scale materials processing systems. The timing of customer payments on these contracts generally differs from the timing of revenue recognized. If revenue recognized exceeds customer payments, a contract asset is recorded and if customer payments exceed revenue recognized, a contract liability is recorded. Contract assets are included within prepaid expense and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Certain deferred revenues related to extended warranties in excess one year from the balance sheet date are included within other long-term liabilities and deferred income taxes on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table reflects the changes in the Company's contract assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:


	September 30,		January 1,				September 30,		January 1,

4.5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, drawings on revolving lines of credit, long-term debt, interest rate swaps and contingent purchase consideration.

The valuation techniques used to measure fair value are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. The Company classifies its financial instruments according to the prescribed criteria.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~IPG PHOTONICS CORPORATION~~

~~NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)~~

~~(In thousands, except share and per share data)~~

The carrying amounts of money market fund deposits, term deposits, accounts receivable, accounts payable and drawings on revolving lines of credit are considered reasonable estimates of their fair market value due to the short maturity of most of these instruments or as a result of the competitive market interest rates, which have been negotiated. The fair value of the Company's bond securities is based upon quoted prices for instruments with identical terms in active markets. The Company's commercial paper securities reported at fair value are based upon model-driven valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, and are therefore classified as Level 2.

The Company entered into an interest rate swap that is designated as a cash flow hedge associated with a long-term note issued during the second quarter of 2016 that will terminate with the long-term note in May 2023. The fair value at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 for the interest rate swap considered pricing models whose inputs are observable for the securities held by the Company.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, ~~and~~the Company's long-term note consisted of a variable rate note. The carrying value of the note approximates the estimated fair value of $16,328. At December 31, 2021, the Company's long-term notes consisted of a variable rate note and a fixed rate ~~note, and are reported at amortized cost on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For disclosure purposes, the~~note. The fair value of the ~~long-term~~ notes ~~was~~were estimated using a discounted cash flow model using observable market interest ~~rates and is classified as Level 2. Based on the discounted cash flow model, the~~rates. The fair ~~values~~value of the long-term notes, including the current portion, at ~~March 31, 2022 and~~ December 31, 2021, ~~were $33,162 and~~was $34,226 ~~respectively,~~ as compared to the ~~book~~carrying value of ~~$33,193~~$34,157. The long-term notes were reported at amortized cost on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and ~~$34,157, respectively.~~were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair values of contingent purchase consideration at ~~March 31, 2022 and~~ December 31, 2021 were determined using an income approach at the respective business combination date and at the reporting date. The approach is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and include key assumptions such as assessing the probability of meeting certain milestones required to earn the contingent purchase consideration.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward looking statements that are based on management's current expectations, estimates and projections about our business and operations. Our actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated and expressed in such forward-looking statements. See "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

Overview

We develop, manufacture and sell high-performance fiber lasers ~~fiber amplifiers~~ and diode lasers that are used for diverse applications, primarily in materials processing. We also manufacture and sell complementary products used with our lasers including optical delivery cables, fiber couplers, beam switches, optical processing heads, in-line sensors and chillers. In addition, we offer laser-based and non-laser based systems for certain markets and applications. Our portfolio of laser solutions is used in materials processing, ~~communications,~~ medical and advanced applications. We sell our products globally to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"), system integrators and end users. We market our products internationally, primarily through our direct sales force. Our major manufacturing facilities are located in the United States, Germany, Russia and Belarus. We have sales service offices and applications laboratories worldwide.

We are vertically integrated such that we design and manufacture most of the key components used in our finished products, from semiconductor diodes to optical fiber preforms, finished fiber lasers ~~amplifiers~~ and complementary products. Our vertically integrated operations allow us to reduce manufacturing costs, control quality, rapidly develop and integrate advanced products and protect our proprietary technology.

Factors and Trends That Affect Our Operations and Financial Results

In reading our financial statements, you should be aware of the following factors and trends that our management believes are important in understanding our financial performance.

Recent Events. ~~As outlined in our risk factors, the~~The Russia-Ukraine conflict and the sanctions imposed in response to this crisis have increased the levels of uncertainty and risks facing the Company. While sales to third-parties in Russia were ~~less than~~approximately 2% of our revenue in the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of 2022, we ~~substantially~~ rely on our facility in Russia ~~for~~to manufacture certain components ~~they manufacture~~ that are used in our other manufacturing ~~facilities and for~~facilities. In addition, we supply finished products to China from Russia. The total value of product ~~sold~~shipped to the Chinese market from Russia was approximately $50 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 of which ~~amounted to approximately $100~~$8 million was shipped in the third quarter. At September 30, 2022, we had working capital excluding cash and short-term investments of $150.5 million in ~~2021.~~Russia of which $116.4 million is inventory. In addition, we had $44.0 million cash and short term investments in Russia. The net asset value of our long lived assets was $94.7 million. We also have a factory in Belarus that supplies certain components to our other manufacturing facilities. The value of the ~~first quarter,~~long lived assets in Belarus was $44.0 million at September 30, 2022, and we ~~managed to navigate~~had working capital excluding cash and short-term investments of $6.5 million in Belarus of which $5.5 million is inventory. In addition, we had $4.0 million cash and short term investments in Belarus.

Since the start of the conflict, we have been navigating complex and evolving regulations, including sanctions, without material disruption to our ability to meet customer demand. ~~However, certain~~Certain sanctions ~~increased~~increase the cost of operating in Russia and Belarus as a result of shipping limitations, logistics challenges and changes in tariffs. Trade restrictions further limited our ability to ship components to Russia from Germany during the third quarter. The U.S. increased tariffs on Russian and Belarus goods late in the first quarter ~~resulting in a greater impact going forward than reflected in our first quarter results.~~of 2022, impacting the results of operations for the remainder of the 2022.

In response to the risks from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, we ~~initiated contingency~~are executing on plans to reduce our reliance on our Russia and Belarus operations by adding capacity in other countries, increasing inventories ~~in the U.S. and Europe~~worldwide and qualifying third-party suppliers. In the first ~~quarter,~~three quarters of 2022, we began hiring and training additional employees, ~~allocating workspace~~expanding capacity for increased production, and running ~~second~~additional shifts in the U.S.~~, Germany~~ and ~~Italy.~~Europe. These plans also include additional investments in facilities in the near term as well as additional ongoing operating costs, primarily associated with the higher cost of labor outside of Russia and Belarus. While we have sufficient financial resources to make these investments and expenditures, our gross margins and other financial results will be adversely impacted by increased operating costs associated with these transitions. Over time, we intend to mitigate some of these increases with cost reductions, higher productivity from automation, improved yields and product specifications.

In October 2022, the European Union introduced new sanctions that will restrict our ability to ship and receive components from our factory in Russia to the E.U. beginning in January 2023. We believe the contingency measures outlined above that we have already put in place will mitigate the effect of the new sanctions. If we have not fully mitigated the effect of

these and other trade restrictions, our ability to supply finished products to customers could be impacted after they take effect. Our Board of Directors has been monitoring and continues to assess and monitor risks to our business associated with the Russia-Ukraine ~~conflict and continuing our operations through~~conflict. Our Directors receive management reports and have discussions with management at quarterly and special ~~meetings since before~~meetings. As a result of the ~~conflict began. Although we continue to operate in Russia and Belarus while we implement contingency plans, if current conditions change such that~~recent sanctions, we are ~~no longer able to operate in Russia or Belarus or require us to significantly curtail~~evaluating strategic options for our operations in ~~these countries,~~Russia. Depending on the result of the assessment and strategic options pursued, we ~~would then~~may need to assess the net realizable value of our Russian working capital and whether our ~~long lived~~long-lived assets ~~are~~in Russia need to be impaired. For additional information regarding the risks and potential impacts of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, see “Risk Factors – The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine may adversely affect our business and results of operations” in Item 1A of Part II of ~~this~~ Form ~~10-Q.~~10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

COVID-19. Global demand trends have been impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and therefore remain uncertain at this time. While business conditions generally improved from the severe contraction experienced in 2020, it is

~~Table of Contents~~

difficult to predict whether conditions could change if there are additional restrictions imposed as a result of a resurgence in COVID-19 infections. To date, we have been able to accommodate these changes to our business operations and continue to meet customer demand. If guidelines or mandates from relevant authorities becomes more restrictive due to a resurgence of COVID-19 in a particular region, the effect on our operations could be more significant. This uncertainty continues to make forecasting our business challenging in the near to medium-term.

Supply Chain. We and our customers are experiencing increased lead times and costs for certain components purchased from third party suppliers; particularly electronic components. We, our customers and our suppliers continue to face constraints related to supply chain and logistics, including availability of capacity, materials, air cargo space, sea containers and higher freight rates. Supply chain and logistics constraints are expected to continue for the foreseeable future and could impact our ability to supply products and our customers' demand for our product or readiness to accept deliveries. Supply chain constraints have not significantly affected our business but they have moderately increased our freight costs, caused us to carry higher levels of safety stock for certain inventory items, increased the cost of certain electronic components, pushed out customer deliveries and caused delays in recognizing revenue for certain custom processing systems in our Genesis business due to delays in receiving robots. Notwithstanding these effects, we believe we have the ability to meet the near-term demand for our products, but the situation is fluid and subject to change.

Net sales. Our net sales have historically fluctuated from quarter to quarter. The increase or decrease in sales from a prior quarter can be affected by the timing of orders received from customers, the ~~shipment, installation and acceptance~~timing of ~~products at our customers' facilities,~~shipments, the mix of OEM orders and one-time orders for products with large purchase prices, competitive pressures, acquisitions, economic and political conditions in a certain country or region and seasonal factors such as the purchasing patterns and levels of activity throughout the year in the regions where we operate. Net sales can be affected by the time taken to qualify our products for use in new applications in the end markets that we serve. Our sales cycle varies substantially, ranging from a period of a few weeks to as long as one year or more, but is typically several months. The adoption of our products by a new customer or qualification in a new application can lead to an increase in net sales for a period, which may then slow until we penetrate new markets or obtain new customers. Foreign exchange rates also affect our net sales, due to changes in the U.S. dollar value of sales made in foreign currencies.

Our business depends substantially upon capital expenditures by end users, particularly by manufacturers using our products for materials processing, which includes general manufacturing, automotive including electric vehicles ~~(EV)~~("EV"), other transportation, aerospace, heavy industry, consumer, semiconductor and electronics. Approximately ~~92%~~91% of our revenues for both the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of 2022 and ~~91% of our revenues for~~ the full 2021 fiscal year were from customers using our products for materials processing. Although applications within materials processing are broad, the capital equipment market in general is cyclical and historically has experienced sudden and severe downturns. For the foreseeable future, our operations will continue to depend upon capital expenditures by end users of materials processing equipment and will be subject to the broader fluctuations of capital equipment spending.

In response to inflation, some global central banks are adopting less accommodative monetary policy and have or expect to increase benchmark interest rates. An increase in interest rates could impact global ~~growth and~~demand and/or could lead to a recession that may reduce the demand for our products. In addition, an increase in interest rates would increase the cost of equipment financed with leases or debt.

In recent years, our net sales and margins have been negatively impacted by tariffs and trade policy. New tariffs and other changes in U.S. trade policy could trigger retaliatory actions by affected countries, and certain foreign governments.

We are also susceptible to global or regional disruptions such as political instability, geopolitical conflicts, acts of terrorism, significant fluctuations in currency values, natural disasters, macroeconomic concerns and the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak that affect the level of capital expenditures or global commerce. With respect to the COVID-19 outbreak specifically, ~~while our financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 improved as compared to quarterly results achieved for the three months ended March 2021,~~ the possible affect over the longer term remains uncertain and dependent on future developments that cannot be

Table of Contents

accurately predicted at this time, such as the severity and transmission rate of COVID-19 or new variants, the extent and effectiveness of containment actions taken, the approval, effectiveness, timing and widespread vaccination of the global population, and the impact of these and other factors on our customer base and general commercial activity.

The average selling prices of our products generally decrease as the products mature. These decreases result from factors such as increased competition, decreased manufacturing costs and ~~increases in~~increased unit volumes. We may also reduce selling prices in order to penetrate new markets and applications. Furthermore, we may negotiate discounted selling prices from time to time with certain customers that place high unit-volume orders.

The secular shift to fiber laser technology in large materials processing applications, such as cutting applications, had a positive effect on our sales trends in the past such that our sales trends were often better than other capital equipment

~~Table of Contents~~

manufacturers in both positive and negative economic cycles. As the secular shift to fiber laser technology matures in such applications, our sales trends are more susceptible to economic cycles which affect other capital equipment manufacturers broadly and the machine tool and industrial laser industries more specifically.

Gross margin. Our total gross margin in any period can be significantly affected by a number of factors, including net sales, production volumes, competitive factors, product mix, and by other factors such as changes in foreign exchange rates relative to the U.S. ~~Dollar.~~dollar, tariffs and shipping costs. Many of these factors are not under our control. The following are examples of factors affecting gross margin:

•As our products mature, we can experience additional competition which tends to decrease average selling prices and affects gross margin;

•Our gross margin can be significantly affected by product mix. Within each of our product categories, the gross margin is generally higher for devices with greater average power. These higher power products often have better performance, more difficult specifications to attain and fewer competing products in the marketplace;

•Higher power lasers also use a greater number of optical components, improving absorption of fixed overhead costs and enabling economies of scale in manufacturing;

•The gross margin for certain specialty products may be higher because there are fewer or sometimes no equivalent competing products;

•Customers that purchase devices in greater unit volumes generally are provided lower prices per device than customers that purchase fewer units. In general, lower selling prices to high unit volume customers reduce gross margin although this may be partially offset by improved absorption of fixed overhead costs associated with larger product volumes, which drive economies of scale;

•Gross margin on systems ~~and communication components~~ can be lower than gross margin for our laser, ~~and amplifier sources,~~ depending on the configuration, volume and competitive forces, among other ~~factors,~~factors; and finally,

•Persistent inflation leading to increases in average manufacturing salaries as well as an increase in the purchase price of components including, but not limited to, electronic components and metal parts could negatively impact gross margin if we are not able to pass those increases on to customers by increasing the selling price of our products.

We expect that some new technologies, products and systems will have returns above our cost of capital but may have gross margins below our corporate average. If we are able to develop opportunities that are significant in size, competitively advantageous or leverage our existing technology base and leadership, our current gross margin levels may not be maintained. Instead, we aim to deliver industry-leading levels of gross margins by growing sales, by taking market share in existing markets, or by developing new applications and markets we address, by reducing the cost of our products and by optimizing the efficiency of our manufacturing operations.

A high proportion of our costs is fixed so costs are generally difficult to adjust or may take time to adjust in response to changes in demand. In addition, our fixed costs increase as we expand our capacity. If we expand capacity faster than is required by sales growth, gross margins could be negatively affected. Gross margins generally decline if production volumes are lower as a result of a decrease in sales or a reduction in inventory because the absorption of fixed manufacturing costs will be reduced. Gross margins generally improve when the opposite occurs. If both sales and inventory decrease in the same period, the decline in gross margin may be greater if we cannot reduce fixed costs or choose not to reduce fixed costs to match the decrease in the level of production. If we experience a decline in sales that reduces absorption of our fixed costs, or if we have production issues, our gross margins will be negatively affected.

Table of Contents

We also regularly review our inventory for items that are slow-moving, have been rendered obsolete or are determined to be excess. Any provision for such slow-moving, obsolete or excess inventory affects our gross margins. For example, we recorded provisions for slow-moving, obsolete or excess inventory totaling ~~$10.8~~$12.9 million and ~~$8.0~~$7.9 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $38.4 million and $23.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Selling and general and administrative expenses. In the past, we invested in selling and general and administrative costs in order to support continued growth in the Company. As the secular shift to fiber laser technology matures, our sales growth becomes more susceptible to the cyclical trends typical of capital equipment manufacturers. Accordingly, our future management of and investments in selling and general and administrative expenses will also be influenced by these trends, although we may still invest in selling or general and administrative functions to support certain initiatives even in economic

~~Table of Contents~~

down cycles. Certain general and administrative expenses are not related to the level of sales and may vary quarter to quarter based primarily upon the level of acquisitions, divestitures and litigation.

Research and development expenses. We plan to continue to invest in research and development to improve our existing components and products and develop new components, products, systems and applications technology. We believe that these investments will sustain our position as a leader in the fiber laser industry and will support development of new products that can address new markets and growth opportunities. The amount of research and development expense we incur may vary from period to period. As part of the telecommunications transmission product line divestiture mentioned below, we will no longer be incurring research and development expenses attributed to the development of telecommunications transmission products.

Goodwill and long-lived assets impairments. We review our intangible assets and property, plant and equipment for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment at least annually. Negative industry or economic trends, including reduced estimates of future cash flows, disruptions to our business, slower growth rates, lack of growth in our relevant business units, differences in the estimated product acceptance rates, or market prices below the carrying value of long-lived assets evaluated for sale could lead to impairment charges against our long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets. We are evaluating certain U.S.-based assets for sale, including land, buildings and the corporate aircraft. If the estimated sales value of any of these assets is below carrying value, then we may need to record an asset impairment charge.

Our valuation methodology for assessing impairment requires management to make significant judgments and assumptions based on historical experience and to rely heavily on projections of future operating performance at many points during the analysis. Also, the process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is subjective. We operate in a highly competitive environment and projections of future operating results and cash flows may vary significantly from actual results. If our analysis indicates potential impairment to goodwill in one or more of our reporting units, we may be required to record charges to earnings in our financial statements, which could negatively affect our results of operations.

Foreign exchange. Because we are a U.S.-based company doing business globally, we have both translational and transactional exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in the relative exchange rate between the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar and the foreign currencies in which our subsidiaries operate directly affects our sales, costs and earnings. Differences in the relative exchange rates between where we sell our products and where we incur manufacturing and other operating costs (primarily in the U.S., Germany, Russia and Belarus) also affects our costs and earnings. Certain currencies experiencing significant exchange rate fluctuations like the ~~Euro,~~euro, the Russian ~~Ruble,~~ruble, the Chinese yuan and the Japanese ~~Yen and Chinese Yuan~~yen have had and could have an additional significant impact on our sales, costs and earnings. ~~The~~For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the foreign exchange gain created by the depreciation of the euro and depreciation of the Russian ~~Ruble and Euro created~~ruble were partially offset by a foreign exchange ~~gain for~~loss created by the ~~quarter ended March 31, 2022~~depreciation of the Chinese yuan as compared to the U.S. dollar. This is because our ~~Russian~~European and ~~European~~Russian subsidiaries have certain net assets denominated in U.S. ~~Dollars.~~dollars, and our Chinese subsidiary has certain net liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars. Our ability to adjust the foreign currency selling prices of products in response to changes in exchange rates is limited and may not offset the impact of the changes in exchange rates on the translated value of sales or costs. In addition, if we increase the selling price of our products in local currencies, this could have a negative impact on the demand for our products.

Major customers. While we have historically depended on a few customers for a large percentage of our annual net sales, the composition of this group can change from ~~year~~period to ~~year.~~period. Net sales derived from our five largest customers as a percentage of our net sales was ~~20%~~16% for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 19%, ~~24%~~ and ~~21%~~24% for the full years 2021 ~~2020~~ and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. One of our customers accounted for 13% and 22% of our net accounts receivable at ~~both March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, ~~2021.~~2021, respectively. We seek to add new customers and to expand our relationships with existing customers. We anticipate that the composition of our significant customers will continue to change. We generally do not enter into agreements with our customers obligating them to purchase a fixed number or large volume of our ~~fiber lasers or amplifiers.~~products. If any of our significant customers substantially reduced their purchases from us, our results would be adversely affected.

Materials processing

Sales for materials processing applications decreased due to lower sales of high power CW lasers, QCW lasers, pulsed lasers and medium power CW lasers, partially offset by higher sales of laser and non-laser systems.

•High power CW laser sales decreased due to lower sales for cutting applications partially offset by an increase in sales for welding applications. Within cutting applications, the decrease in sales was attributable to softer demand in China and Europe. The increase in sales of high power CW lasers used in welding applications was driven by higher sales supporting E-mobility including electric vehicles, battery manufacturing and electric motors.

•Medium power CW laser sales decreased due to lower demand for welding and cutting applications.

•Pulsed laser sales, including high power pulsed lasers, decreased due to lower sales for cutting, marking and engraving application, partially offset by an increase in sales for green pulsed lasers used for solar cell manufacturing applications, and cleaning and stripping applications.

•QCW laser sales decreased due to lower demand in fine processing for consumer electronics applications.

•Laser and non-laser systems sales increased due to higher demand for laser systems and LightWELD.

Other Applications

Sales from other applications increased due to increased demand for lasers used in medical procedures, partially offset by decreased demand for lasers used in advanced applications and decreased sales for telecommunications products mainly due to the business divestiture during the third quarter.

Cost of sales and ~~non-laser systems, medium power lasers~~gross margin. Cost of sales increased by $5.3 million, or 2.7%, to $198.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $193.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Our gross margin decreased to 43.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from 49.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross margin was driven by an increase in costs of products sold from inventory, inventory provisions and shipping costs and tariffs as a percentage of sales, partially offset by higher absorption of manufacturing expenses as a percentage of sales. The strong U.S. dollar has negatively affected gross margin because a disproportionate amount of our manufacturing costs are denominated in U.S. dollars as compared to our sales which are predominantly in foreign currency.

Sales and marketing expense. Sales and marketing expense decreased by $1.3 million, or 6.3%, to $19.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared with $20.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease is due to personnel and related costs. As a percentage of sales, sales and marketing expense increased to 5.6% and 5.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Research and development expense. Research and development expense decreased by $8.9 million, or 25.9%, to $25.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $34.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. This change was primarily a result of decreases in personnel and related costs and expense for materials used for research and development projects, which both decreased in part due to the telecommunications transmission product line divestiture. As a percentage of sales, research and development expense decreased to 7.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from 9.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

General and administrative expense. General and administrative expense increased by $1.2 million, or 3.7%, to $33.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $32.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. This change was primarily a result of increases in consultant costs and provisions for bad debt. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expense increased to 9.7% from 8.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Effect of exchange rates on net sales, gross profit and operating expenses. We estimate that, if exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar had been the same as one year ago, which were on average euro 0.85, Russian ruble 73, Japanese yen 110 and Chinese yuan 6.47, respectively, we would have expected net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to be $26.0 million higher, gross profit to be $13.7 million higher and total operating expenses would have been $0.5 million higher.

Gain on foreign exchange. We incurred a foreign exchange transaction gain of $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to a $3.6 million gain for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Our European and Russian subsidiaries have certain net assets denominated in U.S. dollars, and our Chinese subsidiary has certain net liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars. The foreign exchange gain for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to gains from the depreciation of the euro and the Russian ruble, and partially offset by the loss resulted from the depreciation of the Chinese yuan, as compared to the U.S. dollar.

Interest income (expense), net. Interest income, net was $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to interest expense, net of $0.3 million for three months ended September 30, 2021. The change in interest income (expense), net is due to an increase in yields on cash equivalents and short term investments.

Provision for income taxes. Provision for income taxes was $20.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $26.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, representing an effective tax rate of 21.0% and 26.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in tax expense in 2022 is primarily due to an increase in the benefit from discrete items. The 2022 discrete items include a reduction in taxes as a result of filing amended returns to obtain foreign tax incentives for capital investments in prior years. The 2021 discrete benefit relate primarily to provision to return adjustments.

Net income attributable to IPG Photonics Corporation. Net income attributable to IPG Photonics Corporation increased by $0.9 million to $76.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $75.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Net income attributable to IPG Photonics Corporation as a percentage of our net sales increased by 2.0 percentage points to 21.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from 19.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 due to the factors described above.

Gain on divestiture. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we divested our telecommunications transmission product lines for $56.2 million. The divestiture resulted in a gain of $21.7 million for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022. These estimates assume constant exchange rates between fiscal year 2022 and fiscal year 2021 and are calculated using the average exchange rates for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 for the respective currencies, which were US$1=Euro 0.83, US$1=Russian Ruble 74, US$1=Japanese Yen 106 and US$1=Chinese Yuan 6.49.

Interest income (expense), net. Interest income, net, was $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to $1.2 million of expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The change in interest income (expense), net is due to an increase in yields on cash equivalents and short-term investments that resulted in higher market interest rates as compared to prior year rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, our cash flows from operations and our existing lines of credit provide us with the financial flexibility to meet our liquidity and capital needs. We expect to continue making investments in capital expenditures, to assess acquisition opportunities and to repurchase shares of our stock in accordance with our repurchase program. The extent and timing of such expenditures may vary from period to period. Our future long-term capital requirements will depend on many factors including investments in European and North American manufacturing capacity in order to execute plans to reduce reliance on Russia for manufacturing capacity, our level of sales, the impact of the economic environment on our growth including any ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on certain global or regional economies, global or regional recessions, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, expansion of global sales and marketing activities, government regulation including trade sanctions, the timing and introductions of new products, the need to ensure access to adequate manufacturing capacity and the continuing market acceptance of our products.

With respect to the current geopolitical situation involving Ukraine and Russia, the imposition of ~~sanctions against~~capital controls by the Russian ~~banks or international bank messaging systems could impact~~government restricts our ability to access company cash in Russia, but would not materially disrupt our liquidity as a whole. The current balance of cash and cash equivalents and short term investments in Russia is ~~less than 1.5%~~approximately 3% of total current cash and cash equivalents and short term investments. The Russian operations are self-funding. We attempt to keep only amounts that are needed for working capital in Russia and ~~less than 10%~~approximately 12% of our consolidated working capital including cash, cash equivalents and short term investments is located in Russia. We are making no new investments in Russia.

We are required to meet certain financial covenants associated with our U.S. revolving line of credit and long-term debt facility. These covenants, tested quarterly, include an interest coverage ratio and a funded debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") ratio. The interest coverage covenant requires that we maintain a trailing twelve-month ratio of EBITDA to interest on all obligations that is at least 3.0:1.0. The funded debt to EBITDA covenant requires that the sum of all indebtedness for borrowed money on a consolidated basis be less than three times our trailing twelve months EBITDA. Funded debt is decreased by our cash and available marketable securities not classified as long-term investments in the U.S.A. in excess of $50 million up to a maximum of $500 million. We were in compliance with all such financial covenants as of and for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022.

~~Table of Contents~~

The financial covenants in our loan documents may cause us to not make or to delay investments and actions that we might otherwise undertake because of limits on capital expenditures and amounts that we can borrow or lease. In the event that we do not comply with any one of these covenants, we would be in default under the loan agreement or loan agreements, which may result in acceleration of the debt, cross-defaults on other debt or a reduction in available liquidity, any of which could harm our results of operations and financial condition.

See Note 9,10, "Financing Arrangements" in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information about our facilities and term debt.

The following table presents cash flow activities:

		(In thousands)					(In thousands)
Cash provided by operating activities	Cash provided by operating activities	$	16,423	$	87,543	Cash provided by operating activities	$	171,026	$	305,156

Cash used in financing activities	Cash used in financing activities	(80,445)		(1,637)		Cash used in financing activities	(400,861)		(72,119)

Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by ~~$71.1~~$134.2 million to ~~$16.4~~$171.0 million for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 from ~~$87.5~~$305.2 million for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in cash used by working capital. Our largest working capital items typically are inventory and accounts receivable. Items such as accounts payable to third parties, prepaid expenses and other current assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities are not as significant as our working capital investment in accounts receivable and inventory because of the amount of value added within IPG due to our vertically integrated structure. Accruals and payables for personnel costs including bonuses and income and other taxes payable are largely dependent on the timing of payments for those items. The decrease in cash flow from operating activities in 2022 primarily resulted from:

•an increase in cash used by income and other taxes payable driven by the requirement to capitalize research and development expenses in the U.S and the timing of estimated tax payments made and refunds received from filing tax returns,

•an increase in cash used by accrued expenses due to higher bonus payments and lower bonus accruals,

•an increase in cash used by inventory, including an increase in days inventory on hand as the company builds safety stocks for supply chain disruptions related to third party electronic parts and components internally manufactured by our factory in Russia,

•an increase in cash used by accounts payable due to timing of payments,

•~~an increase in cash used by accrued expenses due to higher bonus payments,~~

•a decrease in cash provided by net income after adjusting for non-cash operating activities, partly driven by the non-cash gain on divestiture of the telecommunications transmission product lines; partially offset by,

•an increase in cash provided by accounts receivable, including a decrease in days sales outstanding due to increased ~~sales; partially offset by,~~collection efforts, and

•an increase in cash provided by prepaid expenses and other assets.

Investing activities. Net cash provided by investing activities was ~~$2.5~~$407.5 million for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 as compared to cash used in investing activities of ~~$60.7~~$304.8 million in 2021. The cash provided by investing activities in 2022 related to ~~$30.4~~$441.3 million of net proceeds offrom short-term investments, and $52.1 million of proceeds received from the divestiture of the telecommunications transmission product lines, net of cash sold; partially offset by ~~$25.2~~$84.6 million of cash used for ~~property, plant and equipment.~~capital expenditures. The cash used in investing activities in 2021 related to ~~$33.4~~$210.7 million of net purchases of short-term investments and ~~$27.4~~$93.9 million ~~for property, plant and equipment.~~of capital expenditures.

In 2022, we expect to ~~incur between $130 million to $140~~invest approximately $110 million in capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions. Capital expenditures include investments in property, facilities and equipment to add capacity worldwide to support anticipated revenue growth, increase vertical integration, increase redundant manufacturing capacity for critical components and enhance research and development capabilities. The timing and extent of any capital expenditures in and between periods can have a significant effect on our cash flow. If we obtain financing for certain projects, our cash expenditures would be reduced in the year of expenditure. Many of the capital expenditure projects that we undertake have long lead times and are difficult to cancel or defer to a later ~~period.~~period once a project has been started.

Financing activities. Net cash used in financing activities was ~~$80.4~~$400.9 million for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 as compared to net cash used of ~~$1.6~~$72.1 million in 2021. The cash used in financing activities in 2022 primarily related to the purchase of treasury stock of ~~$78.8 million.~~$382.9 million, $17.8 million of principal payments on our long-term borrowings; the purchase of non-controlling interests of $2.5 million related to the divestiture of the telecommunications transmission product lines; partially offset by, the proceeds of $2.4 million from the issuance of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan and the exercise of stock options net of amounts disbursed in relation to shares withheld to cover employee income taxes due upon the vesting and release of restricted stock units. The cash used in financing activities in 2021 ~~primarily~~ related to the purchase of treasury stock of ~~$3.0~~$78.1 million, $2.9 million of principal payments on our long-term borrowings and $2.6 million of payments of purchase price holdbacks from business combinations; partially offset by, proceeds of ~~$5.0~~$11.4 million from the exercise of stock options net of amounts disbursed in relation to shares withheld to cover employee income taxes due upon the vesting and release of restricted stock units.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of business, which consists primarily of interest rate risk associated with our cash and cash equivalents and our debt and foreign exchange rate risk.

Interest rate risk. Certain interest rates are variable and fluctuate with current market conditions. Our investments have limited exposure to market risk. We maintain a portfolio of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments consisting primarily of bank deposits, money market funds, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, corporate bonds and ~~municipal bonds.~~U.S treasury and agency obligations. None of these investments have a maturity date in excess of one year. Because of the short-term nature of these instruments, a sudden change in market interest rates would not be expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

We are also exposed to market risk as a result of increases or decreases in the amount of interest expense we must pay on our bank debt and borrowings on our bank credit facilities. Our interest obligations on our long-term debt are fixed ~~either by the underlying agreement or~~ by means of an interest rate swap agreement. Although our U.S. revolving line of credit and our ~~Euro~~euro credit facility have variable rates, we do not believe that a 10% change in market interest rates would have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Exchange rates. Due to our international operations, a significant portion of our net sales, cost of sales and operating expenses are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. ~~Dollar,~~dollar, principally the ~~Euro,~~euro, the Russian ~~Ruble,~~ruble, and the Chinese ~~Yuan and the Japanese Yen.~~yuan. Changes in the exchange rate of the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar versus the functional currencies of our subsidiaries affect the translated value and relative ~~growth~~level of sales and net income that we report from one period to the next. In addition, our subsidiaries may have assets or liabilities denominated in a currency other than their functional currency which results in foreign exchange transaction gains and losses due to changes in the value of the functional currency versus the currency the assets and liabilities are denominated in. The gain on foreign exchange transactions totaled ~~$5.8~~$0.5 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 compared to a gain of ~~$7.2~~$3.6 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2021. Management attempts to minimize these exposures by partially or fully off-setting foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities at our subsidiaries that operate in different functional currencies. The effectiveness of this strategy can be limited by the volume of underlying transactions at various subsidiaries and by our ability to accelerate or delay inter-company cash settlements. As a result, we are unable to create a perfect offset of the foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, our material foreign currency exposure is net U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar denominated assets at subsidiaries where the ~~Euro~~euro or the Russian ~~Ruble~~ruble is the functional currency and U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar denominated liabilities where the Chinese ~~Yuan~~yuan is the functional currency. The U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar denominated assets are comprised of cash, third party receivables and inter-company receivables. The U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar denominated

2529

Table of Contents

liabilities are comprised of inter-company payables. A 5% change in the relative exchange rate of the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar to the ~~Euro~~euro as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 applied to the net U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar asset balances, would result in a foreign exchange gain of ~~$4.9~~$2.0 million if the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar appreciated and a ~~$5.2~~$2.1 million foreign exchange loss if the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar depreciated. A 5% change in the relative exchange rate of the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar to the Russian ~~Ruble~~ruble as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 applied to the net U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar asset balances, would result in a foreign exchange gain of ~~$1.2~~$1.5 million if the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar appreciated and a ~~$1.3~~$1.5 million foreign exchange loss if the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar depreciated. A 5% change in the relative exchange rate of the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar to the Chinese ~~Yuan~~yuan as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 applied to the net U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar liabilities balances, would result in a foreign exchange loss of ~~$4.3~~$2.4 million if the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar appreciated and a ~~$4.5~~$2.5 million foreign exchange gain if the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar depreciated. Volatility between the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar and the currencies to which we are exposed may be increased by the COVID-19 pandemic, sanctions on the Russian government and changes in central bank policy.

In addition, we are exposed to foreign currency translation risk for those subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar as changes in the value of their functional currency relative to the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar affect the translated amounts of our assets and liabilities. Changes in the translated value of assets and liabilities due to changes in functional currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. ~~Dollar~~dollar result in foreign currency translation adjustments that are a component of other comprehensive income or loss.

Foreign currency derivative instruments can also be used to hedge exposures and reduce the risks of certain foreign currency transactions; however, these instruments provide only limited protection and can carry significant cost. We have no foreign currency derivative instruments as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022. We will continue to analyze our exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations and may engage in financial hedging techniques in the future to attempt to minimize the effect of these potential fluctuations. Exchange rate fluctuations may adversely affect our financial results in the future.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, our management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Evaluation Date"). Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Controls

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the ~~last fiscal~~ quarter ended September 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We are continually monitoring and assessing the changes to business processes resulting from COVID-19 to ensure the design and operating effectiveness of our controls are adequate.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Information with respect to this item may be found in Note ~~11,~~12, "Commitments and Contingencies" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

~~The Company is supplementing the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 with the following risk factor.~~ In addition to the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and in Item 1A of Part II of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, or cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. We may also face other risks and uncertainties that are not presently known, are not currently believed to be material, or are not identified in our Annual Report or this Quarterly Report because they are common to all businesses.

~~The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine may adversely affect our business and results of operations.~~

In the first quarter of 2022, Russian military forces invaded Ukraine. This military action had significant and immediate adverse economic impacts globally. Given the nature of our business and our global operations, particularly those in Russia and Belarus, the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine may adversely affect our business and results of operations in a number of respects.

We manufacture a variety of components, including proprietary fiber-based components, at our facility in Russia and electronic components at our facility in Belarus. We have substantial reliance on our facility in Russia for components manufactured there. Our operations in Russia and Belarus are subject to additional regulatory and political constraints and additional compliance costs in connection with sanctions, other trade controls and higher tariffs imposed by the United States, the European Union and other governments in response to Russia’s military operations in Ukraine. Future sanctions restricting our ability to source components from our Russia and Belarus facilities would impact our ability to timely deliver products to our customers. We are implementing steps to mitigate the impacts of the Russia-Ukraine conflict on our business and reduce reliance on our facilities in Russia and Belarus. Such steps include, on a near-term basis, increasing the production of components for inventory as well as, on a longer-term basis, migrating the production of a number of our components currently manufactured in Russia and Belarus into other countries. However, during this transition, we may not be able to adequately mitigate the impact of any future sanctions, the scope of which are not known, to timely deliver products to all current or future customers.

If the relationship between Russia and the United States or Europe significantly worsens, or if Russia, the United States, Europe or other countries impose additional economic sanctions, embargoes, supply chain restrictions or other restrictions on doing business, or increase tariffs, and we are restricted or precluded from continuing our operations in Russia or Belarus, our production could be interrupted, our costs could increase and our business and results of operations would be materially adversely affected.

The current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and our continued operations in Russia and Belarus may also have the effect of heightening many other risks disclosed in our public filings, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. Such risks include, but are not limited to, increases in tariffs; adverse effects on global macroeconomic conditions; increased exposure to cyberattacks; impact of export controls and economic sanctions; limitations in our ability to implement and execute our business strategy; risks to employees, assets and operations we have in Russia and Belarus; disruptions in global supply chains; exposure to foreign currency fluctuations and potential nationalizations and asset seizures in Russia; constraints or disruption in the capital markets and our sources of liquidity; and potential contractual breaches and litigation.

Additionally, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 other than as set forth below.

We must comply with and could be impacted by various export controls and trade and economic sanctions laws and regulations that could negatively affect our business and may change due to diplomatic and political considerations outside of our control.

~~Table of Contents~~

A significant part of our business involves the export and import of components and products among many countries, including the U.S., Germany, Russia, Belarus and China. The U.S. government and governments of other countries in which we do business have Trade Controls that impact our ability to export, re-export or transfer products, software and technology originating in those countries. Trade Controls may require that we obtain a license before we can export, re-export or transfer certain products, software or technology. The requirement to obtain a license could put us at a competitive disadvantage by restricting our ability to sell products to customers in certain countries or by giving rise to delays or expenses related to obtaining a license. We have experienced and, in the future, may experience delays in obtaining export licenses based on issues solely within the control of the applicable government agency. Licenses may also include conditions that limit the use, resale, transfer, re-export, modification, disassembly, or transfer of a product, software or technology after it is exported without first obtaining permission from the relevant government agency. Delays in obtaining or failure to obtain required export licenses may require us to defer shipments for substantial periods or cancel orders. Any of these circumstances could adversely affect our operations and, as a result, our financial results could suffer. Although we have implemented compliance measures designed to prevent transactions prohibited by current or future Trade Controls, we have previously identified, and may continue to identify, instances in which we exported products without obtaining the required export authorizations and/or submitting the required requests. As a result, we have submitted a limited number of voluntary self-disclosures regarding compliance with export control laws and regulations with the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”). In October 2021, the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) advised us it is conducting an investigation into certain shipments of equipment. While we are cooperating fully with the DOJ’s review, we are unable to estimate its ultimate impact on the Company. Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in costly government investigations, government sanctions, including substantial monetary penalties, civil or criminal penalties, denial of export privileges, debarment from government contracts, and a loss of revenues and reputational harm.

Our manufacturing facilities in the U.S., Germany and Russia provide finished products to China, our largest market. Should the United States, the European Union or Russia implement new or broad-based Trade Controls directed at each other or China, our production and/or deliveries as well as results of operations and/or financial condition could be affected.

In addition, Trade Controls and their implementation are fluid and may change due to diplomatic and political considerations outside of our control. The United States, the European Union and Russia have imposed numerous additional trade restrictions and sanctions in response to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Such changes, including the potential expansion of sanctions and sanctions designations, as well as public statements by government officials, could be significant. While the Company has a trade compliance program, there is a risk that IPG may not be able to comply due to the number, complexity and fast-changing nature of sanctions being added in response to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Trade Controls and governmental responses to the conflict may require us to take certain actions, including increasing costs and abandoning operations, or respond to nationalization or expropriation of assets abroad, adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock, have a reputational impact, or otherwise have a material adverse impact on us, our business and financial results.
