2. Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are detailed in “Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended ~~March 28, 2020.~~April 3, 2021. Significant changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting new accounting standards are discussed below.

Recent Accounting Standards Adopted

In ~~September 2016,~~December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) ~~No. 2016-13,~~ ~~Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments~~, which changes how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The new guidance replaces the current incurred loss approach with a new expected credit loss impairment model. The new model applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt instruments, net investments in leases, loan commitments and standby letters of credit. Upon initial recognition of the exposure, the expected credit loss model requires entities to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). The estimate of expected credit losses considers historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics are grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 does not prescribe a specific method to make the estimate, so its application requires significant judgment. The Company adopted this accounting standard update in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

~~In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,~~ ~~Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)~~: ~~Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment~~. The objective of this standard update is to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under this ASU, an entity should perform its annual goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, assuming the loss recognized does not exceed the total amount of goodwill for the reporting unit. The standard update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

~~Recent Accounting Standards Yet to Be Adopted~~

~~In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU~~ No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The objective of this standard update is to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. This ASU also attempts to improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This standard update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company ~~is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of~~adopted this ASU ~~will have on~~effective April 4, 2021 and the impact of adoption was not material to the Company’s ~~consolidated~~ financial ~~statements.~~position, results of operations or liquidity.

Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after April ~~3, 2021~~2, 2022 are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

3. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company operates in four business segments with similar economic characteristics, including nature of the products and production processes, distribution patterns and classes of customers. Revenue is disaggregated within these business segments by our two principal end markets: aerospace and industrial. Comparative information of the Company’s overall revenues for the ~~three- and six-month~~three-month periods ended ~~September 26,~~July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020 ~~and September 28, 2019~~ are as follows:

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of orders meeting the definition of a contract ~~under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606~~in the new revenue standard for which work has not been performed or has been partially performed and excludes unexercised contract options. The duration of ~~many~~the majority of our contracts, as defined by ASC Topic 606, is less than one year. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient, ~~that~~which allows companies to exclude remaining performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less. ~~Performance obligations having a duration of more than one year are concentrated in contracts for certain products and services provided to the U.S. government or its contractors.~~ The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for such contracts with a duration of more than one year was approximately ~~$259,351~~$288,731 at ~~September 26, 2020.~~July 3, 2021. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately ~~59%~~56% and ~~88%~~84% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 and 24 months, respectively, with the remainder recognized thereafter.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections ~~affects~~affect accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. These assets and liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets on an individual contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

Contract Assets (Unbilled Receivables) - Pursuant to the over-time revenue recognition model, revenue may be recognized prior to the customer being invoiced. An unbilled receivable is recorded to reflect revenue that is recognized when (1) the cost-to-cost method is applied and (2) such revenue exceeds the amount invoiced to the customer.

As of July 3, 2021 and April 3, 2021, current contract assets were $6,196 and $5,584, respectively, and included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in contract assets was primarily due to the recognition of revenue related to the satisfaction or partial satisfaction of performance obligations prior to billing partially offset by amounts billed to customers during the period. As of July 3, 2021 and April 3, 2021, the Company did not have any contract assets classified as noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheets. There were no impairment losses related to the Company’s contract assets during the three months ended July 3, 2021.

Contract Liabilities (Deferred Revenue) - The Company may receive a customer advance or deposit, or have an unconditional right to receive a customer advance, prior to revenue being recognized. Since the performance obligations related to such advances may not have been satisfied, a contract liability is established. Advance payments are not considered a significant financing component as the timing of the transfer of the related goods or services is at the discretion of the customer.

As of July 3, 2021 and April 3, 2021, current contract liabilities were $14,624 and $16,998, respectively, and included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The decrease in current contract liabilities was primarily due to the amount of advanced payments received and reclassifications between current and noncurrent contract liabilities based on anticipated timing of performance obligations and revenue recognized during the period. For the three months ended July 3, 2021, the Company recognized revenues of $4,650 that were included in the contract liability balance as of April 3, 2021. For the three months ended June 27, 2020, the Company recognized revenues of $5,821 that were included in the contract liability balance at March 28, 2020.

~~These assets~~As of July 3, 2021 and April 3, 2021, noncurrent contract liabilities ~~are reported~~were $9,642 and $3,754, respectively, and included within other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance ~~sheets at~~sheets. The increase in noncurrent contract liabilities was primarily due to the ~~end~~amount of ~~each reporting~~advanced payments received and reclassifications between current and noncurrent contract liabilities based on anticipated timing of performance obligations and revenue recognized during the period.

Accounts Receivable - As of ~~September 26, 2020~~July 3, 2021 and ~~March 28, 2020,~~April 3, 2021, accounts receivable with customers, net, were ~~$108,078~~$105,756 and ~~$128,995,~~$110,472, respectively. ~~The tables below represent a roll-forward of contract assets and contract liabilities for the six-month period ended September 26, 2020:~~

5. Net Income Per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.

Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding using the treasury stock method. Common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the ~~vesting or~~ exercise of stock ~~awards.~~options.

The table below reflects the calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding for each period presented as well as the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

The inclusion of these employee stock options and restricted shares would be anti-dilutive.

6. Cash and Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash accounts primarily with Bank of America, N.A., Credit Suisse Group AG and Wells Fargo & Company. The domestic balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company up to $250. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

~~Short-term investments, if any, are~~At July 3, 2021, the Company held $120,320 of short-term marketable securities comprised of ~~equity securities and~~mutual funds as part of the Company’s investment strategy compared to $90,249 at April 3, 2021. These investments are measured at fair value by using quoted prices in active markets and are classified as Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. These mutual funds can be liquidated at the Company’s discretion. They are held for investment and are not considered debt securities. Preservation of principal is the primary goal of our cash and investment policy. Pursuant to our established investment guidelines, we strive to achieve high levels of credit quality, liquidity and diversification.

Domestic Credit Facility

The Company’s credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”) provides the Company with a $250,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”), which expires on January 31, 2024. Debt issuance costs associated with the Credit Agreement totaled $852 and will be amortized through January 31, 2024 along with the unamortized debt issuance costs remaining from the Company’s prior credit agreement. As of July 3, 2021, $1,022 in unamortized debt issuance costs remain.

Amounts outstanding under the Revolver generally bear interest at (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1% and (3) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1%, or (b) LIBOR plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA at each measurement date. Currently, the Company’s margin is 0.00% for base rate loans and 0.75% for LIBOR loans.

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants including, among other things, a financial covenant to maintain a ratio of consolidated net debt to adjusted EBITDA not greater than 3.50 to 1. The Credit Agreement allows the Company to, among other things, make distributions to shareholders, repurchase its stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that the Company complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Credit Agreement. As of ~~September 26, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants.

The Company’s domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the Company’s obligations and the domestic subsidiaries’ ~~guarantee~~guaranty are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the domestic assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.

Approximately ~~$3,700~~$3,550 of the Revolver is being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure the Company’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs. ~~As of September 26, 2020, $1,319 in unamortized debt issuance costs remain.~~ The Company has the ability to borrow up to an additional ~~$246,300~~$246,450 under the Revolver as of ~~September 26, 2020.~~July 3, 2021.

Foreign Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility

On August 15, 2019, one of our foreign subsidiaries, Schaublin SA (“Schaublin”), entered into two separate credit agreements (the “Foreign Credit Agreements”) with Credit Suisse (Switzerland) Ltd. to (i) finance the acquisition of Swiss Tool, and (ii) provide future working capital. The Foreign Credit Agreements provided Schaublin with a CHF 15,000 (approximately $15,383) term loan (the “Foreign Term Loan”), which expires on July 31, 2024 and a CHF 15,000 (approximately $15,383) revolving credit facility (the “Foreign Revolver”), which continues in effect until terminated by either Schaublin or Credit Suisse. Debt issuance costs associated with the Foreign Credit Agreements totaled CHF 270 (approximately $277) and will be amortized throughout the life of the Foreign Credit Agreements. As of July 3, 2021, approximately $90 in unamortized debt issuance costs remain.

Amounts outstanding under the Foreign Term Loan and the Foreign Revolver generally bear interest at LIBOR plus a specified margin. The applicable margin is based on Schaublin’s ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA at each measurement date. Currently, Schaublin’s margin is 1.00%.

The Foreign Credit Agreements require Schaublin to comply with various covenants, which are tested annually on March 31. These covenants include, among other things, a financial covenant to maintain a ratio of consolidated net debt to adjusted EBITDA ~~not greater than 3.00 to 1 as of March 31, 2020 and~~ not greater than 2.50 to 1 as of March 31, 2021 and thereafter. Schaublin is also required to maintain an economic equity of CHF 20,000 at all times. The Foreign Credit Agreements allow Schaublin to, among other things, incur other debt or liens and acquire or dispose of assets provided that Schaublin complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Foreign Credit Agreements. As of ~~March 31, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, Schaublin was in compliance with all such covenants.

Schaublin’s parent company, Schaublin Holding, has guaranteed Schaublin’s obligations under the Foreign Credit Agreements. Schaublin Holding’s guaranty and the Foreign Credit Agreements are secured by a pledge of the capital stock of Schaublin. In addition, the Foreign Term Loan is secured with pledges of the capital stock of the top company and the three operating companies in the Swiss Tool System group of companies.

As of ~~September 26, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, there was approximately ~~$2,906 outstanding under the Foreign Revolver and approximately $12,912~~$6,188 outstanding under the Foreign Term ~~Loan. These borrowings have been classified as Level 2 of~~Loan and no amounts outstanding under the ~~valuation hierarchy. As of September 26, 2020, approximately $111 in unamortized debt issuance costs remain.~~Foreign Revolver. Schaublin has the ability to borrow up to an additional ~~$13,235~~$16,283 under the Foreign Revolver as of ~~September 26, 2020.~~July 3, 2021.

Schaublin’s required future ~~annual~~ principal payments are approximately ~~$6,134~~$0 for the ~~next twelve months~~remainder of fiscal 2022, $0 for fiscal 2023, $2,931 for fiscal 2024 and ~~approximately $3,228~~$3,257 for ~~each year for the next three years.~~fiscal 2025.

Schaublin obtained a 20-year fixed-rate mortgage of approximately $9,857 at an interest rate of 2.9%. The balance of the purchase price of approximately $5,053 was paid from cash on hand. The balance on this mortgage as of ~~September 26, 2020~~July 3, 2021 was approximately ~~$6,004~~$5,678 and has been classified as Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

9.Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in numerous U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, with returns subject to examination for varying periods, but generally back to and including the year ending April 2, 2005. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years ending before ~~April 1, 2017.~~March 31, 2018.

The effective income tax rates for the three-month periods ended ~~September 26,~~July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, were 15.8% and ~~September 28, 2019 were 20.9% and 14.7%~~20.0%, respectively. In addition to discrete items, the effective income tax rates for these periods are different from the U.S. statutory rates due to the foreign-derived intangible income provision and U.S. credit for increasing research activities, which decrease the rate, and state income taxes ~~which~~that increase the rate.

The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended ~~September 26, 2020~~July 3, 2021 of ~~20.9%~~15.8% includes ~~$364~~$2,139 of tax ~~benefits~~benefit associated with share-based ~~compensation.~~compensation, along with $160 of tax benefit for the release of unrecognized tax positions associated with a statute of limitations expiration. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended ~~September 26, 2020~~July 3, 2021 would have been ~~22.0%~~23.2%. The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended ~~September 28, 2019~~June 27, 2020 of ~~14.7%~~20.0% includes ~~$2,529~~$315 of tax ~~benefits~~benefit associated with share-based ~~compensation.~~compensation, along with $75 of tax benefit for the release of unrecognized tax positions associated with a statute of limitations expiration. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended ~~September 28, 2019~~June 27, 2020 would have been 21.3%. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that some of its unrecognized tax positions may be effectively settled within the next ~~twelve~~12 months due to the closing of audits and the statute of limitations expiring in varying jurisdictions. The decrease in the Company’s unrecognized tax positions, pertaining primarily to federal and state credits and state tax, is estimated to be approximately ~~$1,524.~~$1,429.

Income tax expense for the six-month period ended September 26, 2020 was $11,046 compared to $12,646 for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019. Our effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 26, 2020 was 20.4% compared to 17.0% for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019. The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 26, 2020 of 20.4% includes $679 of tax benefits associated with share-based compensation. The effective income tax rate without these benefits and other items for the six-month period ended September 26, 2020 would have been 21.6%. The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019 of 17.0% included $3,039 of tax benefits associated with share-based compensation and $241 of tax benefits associated with other permanent adjustments from filing the Company’s fiscal 2018 foreign tax returns. The effective income tax rate without these benefits and other items for the six-month period ended September 28, 2019 would have been 21.3%.

10. Reportable Segments

The Company operates through operating segments for which separate financial information is available, and for which operating results are evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker in determining resource allocation and assessing performance. Those operating segments are aggregated as reportable segments as they have similar economic characteristics, including nature of the products and production processes, distribution patterns and classes of customers.

The Company has 4four reportable business segments, Plain Bearings, Roller Bearings, Ball Bearings and Engineered Products, which are described below.

Plain Bearings. Plain bearings are produced with either self-lubricating or metal-to-metal designs and consists of several sub-classes, including rod end bearings, spherical plain bearings and journal bearings. Unlike ball bearings, which are used in high-speed rotational applications, plain bearings are primarily used to rectify inevitable misalignments in various mechanical components.

Roller Bearings. Roller bearings are anti-friction bearings that use rollers instead of balls. The Company manufactures four basic types of roller bearings: heavy-duty needle roller bearings with inner rings, tapered roller bearings, track rollers and aircraft roller bearings.

Ball Bearings. The Company manufactures four basic types of ball bearings: high precision aerospace, airframe control, thin section and commercial ball bearings, which are used in high-speed rotational applications.

Engineered Products. Engineered Products consists of highly engineered hydraulics, fasteners, collets and precision components used in aerospace, marine and industrial applications.

Segment performance is evaluated based on segment net sales and gross margin. Items not allocated to segment operating income include corporate administrative expenses and certain other amounts.

Overview

We are a well-known international manufacturer ~~and maker~~ of highly engineered precision bearings and components. Our precision solutions are integral to the manufacture and operation of most machines and mechanical systems, reduce wear to moving parts, facilitate proper power transmission and reduce damage and energy loss caused by friction. While we manufacture products in all major ~~bearings~~bearing categories, we focus primarily on the higher end of the bearing ~~and engineered component markets~~market where we believe our ~~value-added~~value added manufacturing and engineering capabilities enable us to differentiate ourselves from our competitors and enhance profitability. We believe our unique expertise has enabled us to garner leading positions in many of the product markets in which we primarily compete. With 4243 facilities in 7seven countries, of which 3331 are manufacturing facilities, we have been able to significantly broaden our end markets, products, customer base and geographic reach. We currently operate under four reportable business segments: Plain ~~Bearings,~~Bearings; Roller ~~Bearings,~~Bearings; Ball ~~Bearings,~~Bearings; and Engineered Products. The following further describes these reportable segments:

Plain Bearings. Plain bearings are produced with either self-lubricating or metal-to-metal designs and ~~consists~~consist of several sub-classes, including rod end bearings, spherical plain bearings and journal bearings. Unlike ball bearings, which are used in high-speed rotational applications, plain bearings are primarily used to rectify inevitable misalignments in various mechanical components.

Roller Bearings. Roller bearings are anti-friction bearings that use rollers instead of balls. We manufacture four basic types of roller bearings: ~~heavy-duty~~heavy duty needle roller bearings with inner rings, tapered roller bearings, track rollers and aircraft roller bearings.

Ball Bearings.. We manufacture four basic types of ball bearings: high precision aerospace, airframe control, thin section and commercial ball bearings which are used in high-speed rotational applications.

Engineered Products. Engineered Products ~~consists~~consist of highly engineered hydraulics, fasteners, collets, tool holders and precision components used in aerospace, marine and industrial applications.

Purchasers of bearings and engineered products include industrial equipment and machinery manufacturers, producers of commercial and military aerospace equipment, ~~such as missiles and radar systems,~~ agricultural machinery manufacturers, construction, energy, mining ~~marine~~ and specialized equipment manufacturers, and marine products, automotive and commercial truck manufacturers. The markets for our products are cyclical, and we have endeavored to mitigate this cyclicality by entering into sole-source relationships and long-term purchase agreements, through diversification across multiple market segments within the aerospace and ~~defense and diversified~~ industrial segments, by increasing sales to the aftermarket, and by focusing on developing highly customized solutions.

Currently, our strategy is built around maintaining our role as a leading manufacturer of ~~precision-engineered~~precision bearings and components through the following efforts:

●

Developing innovative solutions. By leveraging our design and manufacturing expertise and our extensive customer relationships, we continue to develop new products for markets in which there are substantial growth opportunities.

●

Expanding customer base and penetrating end markets. We continually seek opportunities to access new customers, geographic locations and bearing platforms with existing products or profitable new product opportunities.

●

Increasing aftermarket sales. We believe that increasing our aftermarket sales of replacement parts will further enhance the continuity and predictability of our revenues and enhance our profitability. Such sales include sales to third party distributors, and sales to OEMs for replacement products and aftermarket services. We ~~will~~expect to increase the percentage of our revenues derived from the replacement market by continuing to implement several initiatives.

●

Pursuing selective acquisitions. The acquisition of businesses that complement or expand our operations has been and continues to be an important element of our business strategy. We believe that there will continue to be consolidation within the industry that may present us with acquisition opportunities.

~~Outlook~~We have demonstrated expertise in acquiring and integrating bearing and precision engineered component manufacturers that have complementary products or distribution channels and have provided significant margin enhancement. We have consistently increased the profitability of acquired businesses through a process of methods and systems improvement coupled with the introduction of complementary and proprietary new products. Since 1992 we have completed 26 acquisitions, which have broadened our end markets, products, customer base and geographic reach.

Outlook

Our net sales for the three-month period ended ~~September 26, 2020~~July 3, 2021 decreased ~~19.6%~~by 0.2% compared to the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in net sales was a result of a ~~25.8%~~31.0% increase in our industrial markets offset by an 18.3% decrease in our aerospace ~~markets~~markets. The increase in industrial sales was driven by increases in the mining, energy, and ~~an 8.3% decrease in our~~general industrial markets. The decrease in aerospace sales was ~~primarily due to the commercial markets,~~experienced both ~~OEM and aftermarket, offset by increases~~ in our commercial and defense ~~business. The decrease in industrial sales was driven by decreases in the mining, energy, marine, and general industrial~~ markets. ~~Excluding $0.4 million of July sales associated with Swiss Tool, which was acquired in August fiscal 2020, overall net sales decreased 19.8% year over year.~~ Our backlog, as of ~~September 26, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, was ~~$403.0~~$420.2 million compared to ~~$473.2~~$394.8 million as of ~~September 28, 2019.~~April 3, 2021.

Our sales to industrial markets experienced growth of 31.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to the same three month period last year. This growth was evidenced across most of our industrial products both to OEM and distribution customers. The improvement in domestic and international economic conditions in recent months has been reflected through increased orders received which we expect to sustain throughout fiscal 2022.

The COVID-19 health crisis, which was declared a pandemic in March 2020, ~~has led~~continues to governments around the world implementing measures to reduce the spread. These measures include quarantines, “shelter in place” orders, travel restrictions, and other measures and have resulted in a slowdown of worldwide economic activity.

Our business is operating as an essential business, and as such, our facilities have remained open, with the exception of a few temporary closures at some of our locations. The COVID-19 pandemic is impactingimpact our commercial aerospace ~~and industrial~~ sales in fiscal ~~2021. Our commercial aerospace sales continue to face headwinds associated with~~2022 as a result of build rate changes within the ~~industry, while the general decline in global economic activity has had an impact on the industrial markets.~~

~~Our production and sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 have been negatively affected by the economic implications of the pandemic. We expect that~~industry. The commercial aerospace OEM and aftermarket will continue to be impacted by ~~the year-over-year decline in~~reduced air travel and changes in ~~aircraft~~ production ~~rates. Conversely, our sales to aerospace defense markets~~rates in the first half of fiscal 2022, but are expected to grow ~~throughout fiscal 2021. Sales~~ in ~~these markets grew 24.1% during~~ the second ~~quarter~~half of ~~fiscal 2021 (17.8% for~~ the ~~first six months of fiscal 2021) as compared to the same period last~~ year. Our sales to industrial markets will be adversely affected in the next quarter of fiscal 2021 due to the slowdown of economic activity compared to last year. Management is continuously evaluating the status of our orders and operations, and restructuring efforts are being implemented where necessary to align our cost structure to the new demand levels we experience in the marketplace.

We experienced ~~solid~~strong cash flow generation during the ~~second quarter~~first three months of fiscal ~~2021~~2022 (as discussed in the section “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below). ~~Management believes~~We expect this trend to continue throughout the fiscal year as customer demand continues to improve. We believe that ~~these~~ operating cash flows and available credit under ~~all credit agreements~~the Revolver and Foreign Revolver will provide adequate resources to fund internal ~~and external~~ growth initiatives for the foreseeable future, including at least the next ~~twelve~~12 months. For further discussion regarding plans to fund external growth initiatives, refer to Part I, Item 1 – Note 11 “Subsequent Events.” As of ~~September 26, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents and highly liquid marketable securities of ~~$166.4~~$296.1 million of which approximately ~~$13.1~~$11.8 million was cash held by our foreign operations.

The Company expects net sales to be approximately ~~$140.0~~$158.0 million to ~~$145.0~~$162.0 million in the ~~third~~second quarter of fiscal ~~2021.~~2022.

Corporate SG&A decreased $3.0 million for the six months ended September 26, 2020 compared to the same period last year due to a decrease of $4.7 million in personnel costs and $0.1 million of other items, partially offset by $0.8 million of additional share-based compensation expenses and $1.0 million of additional professional costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

(dollars in millions in tables)

Our business is capital-intensive. Our capital requirements include manufacturing equipment and materials. In addition, we have historically fueled our growth, in part, through acquisitions. We have historically met our working capital, capital expenditure requirements and acquisition funding needs through our net cash flows provided by operations, various debt arrangements and sale of equity to investors. We believe that operating cash flows and available credit under the Revolver and Foreign Revolver ~~(see below)~~ will provide adequate resources to fund internal ~~and external~~ growth initiatives for the foreseeable future. For further discussion regarding plans to fund external growth initiatives, refer to Part I, Item 1 – Note 11 “Subsequent Events.”

Our ability to meet future working capital, capital expenditures and debt service requirements will depend on our future financial performance, which will be affected by a range of economic, competitive and business factors, particularly interest rates, cyclical changes in our end markets and prices for steel and our ability to pass through price increases on a timely basis, many of which are outside of our control. In addition, future acquisitions could have a significant impact on our liquidity position and our need for additional funds.

From time to time, we evaluate our existing facilities and operations and their strategic importance to us. If we determine that a given facility or operation does not have future strategic importance, we may sell, partially or completely, relocate production lines, consolidate or otherwise dispose of those operations. Although we believe our operations would not be materially impaired by such dispositions, relocations or consolidations, we could incur significant cash or non-cash charges in connection with them.

Liquidity

As of ~~September 26, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents and highly liquid marketable securities of ~~$166.4~~$296.1 million, of which, approximately ~~$13.1~~$11.8 million was cash held by our foreign operations. We expect that our undistributed foreign earnings will be re-invested indefinitely for working capital, internal growth and acquisitions for and by our foreign ~~entities.~~subsidiaries.

Domestic Credit Facility

The Company’s credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”) provides the Company with a $250.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”), which expires on January 31, 2024. Debt issuance costs associated with the Credit Agreement totaled $0.9 million and will be amortized through January 31, 2024 along with the unamortized debt issuance costs remaining from the Company’s prior credit agreement. As of July 3, 2021, $1.0 million in unamortized debt issuance costs remain.

Approximately ~~$3.7~~$3.6 million of the Revolver is being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure the Company’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs. ~~As of September 26, 2020, $1.3 million in unamortized debt issuance costs remain.~~ The Company has the ability to borrow up to an additional ~~$246.3~~$246.4 million under the Revolver as of ~~September 26, 2020.~~July 3, 2021.

Foreign Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility

On August 15, 2019, one of our foreign subsidiaries, Schaublin SA (“Schaublin”), entered into two separate credit agreements (the “Foreign Credit Agreements”) with Credit Suisse (Switzerland) Ltd. to (i) finance the acquisition of Swiss Tool, and (ii) provide future working capital. The Foreign Credit Agreements provided Schaublin with a CHF 15.0 million (approximately $15.4 million) term loan (the “Foreign Term Loan”), which expires on July 31, 2024 and a CHF 15.0 million (approximately $15.4 million) revolving credit facility (the “Foreign Revolver”), which continues in effect until terminated by either Schaublin or Credit Suisse. Debt issuance costs associated with the Foreign Credit Agreements totaled CHF 0.3 million (approximately $0.3 million) and will be amortized throughout the life of the Foreign Credit Agreements. As of July 3, 2021, approximately $0.1 million in unamortized debt issuance costs remain.

The Foreign Credit Agreements require Schaublin to comply with various covenants, which are tested annually on March 31. These covenants include, among other things, a financial covenant to maintain a ratio of consolidated net debt to adjusted EBITDA ~~not greater than 3.00 to 1 as of March 31, 2020 and~~ not greater than 2.50 to 1 as of March 31, 2021 and thereafter. Schaublin is also required to maintain an economic equity of CHF 20.0 million at all times. The Foreign Credit Agreements allow Schaublin to, among other things, incur other debt or liens and acquire or dispose of assets provided that Schaublin complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Foreign Credit Agreements. As of ~~March 31, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, Schaublin was in compliance with all such covenants.

As of ~~September 26, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, there was approximately ~~$2.9 million outstanding under the Foreign Revolver and approximately $12.9~~$6.2 million outstanding under the Foreign Term ~~Loan. These borrowings have been classified as Level 2 of~~Loan and no amounts outstanding under the ~~valuation hierarchy. As of September 26, 2020, approximately $0.1 million in unamortized debt issuance costs remain.~~Foreign Revolver. Schaublin has the ability to borrow up to an additional ~~$13.2~~$16.3 million under the Foreign Revolver as of ~~September 26, 2020.~~July 3, 2021.

Schaublin’s required future ~~annual~~ principal payments are approximately ~~$6.1~~$0 for the remainder of fiscal 2022, $0 for fiscal 2023, $2.9 million for ~~the next twelve months~~fiscal 2024 and ~~approximately $3.2~~$3.3 million for ~~each year for the next three years.~~fiscal 2025.

Other Notes Payable

~~On October 1,~~In 2012 Schaublin purchased the land and building that it ~~occupied and had been leasing~~occupies for approximately $14.9 million. Schaublin obtained a 20-year fixed-rate mortgage of approximately $9.9 million at an interest rate of 2.9%. The balance of the purchase price of approximately ~~$5.1~~$5.0 million was paid from cash on hand. The balance on this mortgage as of ~~September 26, 2020~~July 3, 2021 was approximately ~~$6.0~~$5.7 million and has been classified as Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

The Company’s required future ~~annual~~ principal payments are approximately $0.4 million for the remainder of fiscal 2022, $0.5 million for each year ~~for the next five years~~from fiscal 2023 through fiscal 2026 and ~~$3.5~~$3.3 million thereafter.

Cash Flows

~~Six-month~~Three-month Period Ended ~~September 26, 2020~~July 3, 2021 Compared to the ~~Six-month~~Three-month Period Ended ~~September 28, 2019~~June 27, 2020

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities:

	FY21			FY20			$ Change			FY22			FY21			$ Change

During the first ~~six~~three months of fiscal ~~2021,~~2022, we generated cash of ~~$74.5~~$53.3 million from operating activities compared to ~~$64.6~~$48.4 million of cash generated during the same period of fiscal ~~2020.~~2021. The increase of ~~$9.9~~$4.9 million for fiscal ~~2021~~2022 was mainly a result of the favorable impact of a net change in operating assets and liabilities of ~~$20.1~~$3.2 million and ~~a favorable~~an increase in net income of $3.3 million partially offset by an unfavorable change in non-cash charges of ~~$8.5 million, offset by a decrease in net income of $18.7~~$1.6 million. The favorable change in operating assets and liabilities iswas primarily the result of an increase in the amount of cash being provided by working capital items as detailed in the table below, while the ~~increase~~decrease in non-cash charges resulted from ~~$0.5~~an unfavorable change in deferred taxes of $2.2 million and depreciation of $0.3 million offset by favorable changes to share-based compensation of $0.3 million, amortization of intangible assets of $0.1 million and restructuring and other charges of amortization of deferred financing costs, $3.2 million in deferred taxes, $1.0 million of depreciation, $0.8 million of share-based compensation charges, and $2.9 million of other non-cash charges related to restructuring efforts.$0.5 million.

The following chart summarizes the favorable change in operating assets and liabilities of ~~$20.1~~$3.2 million for fiscal 2022 versus fiscal 2021 and the favorable change of $12.8 million for fiscal 2021 versus fiscal ~~2020 and the favorable change of $3.8 million for fiscal 2020 versus fiscal 2019.~~2020.

During the first ~~six~~three months of fiscal ~~2021,~~2022, we used ~~$5.8~~$33.3 million for investing activities as compared to ~~$53.8~~$3.6 million used during the first ~~six~~three months of fiscal ~~2020.~~2021. This ~~decrease~~increase in cash used was attributable to the purchase of $29.9 million of highly liquid marketable securities during the current period and a ~~$14.2~~purchase price adjustment in fiscal 2021 related to the Swiss Tool acquisition of $0.3 million ~~decrease in~~offset by $0.5 million fewer capital expenditures ~~and the use of $33.8 million~~ in ~~the prior year for the acquisition of Swiss Tool.~~fiscal 2022 compared to fiscal 2021.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures were ~~$2.1 million and $6.0~~$3.4 million for the ~~three- and six-month periods~~three-month period ended ~~September 26, 2020, respectively.~~July 3, 2021. We expect to make additional capital expenditures of ~~$6.0~~$10.0 to ~~$8.0~~$15.0 million during the remainder of fiscal ~~2021~~2022 in connection with our existing business. We expect to fund these capital expenditures principally through existing cash and internally generated funds. We may also make substantial additional capital expenditures in connection with acquisitions.

Other Matters

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We believe the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the Consolidated Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our fiscal ~~2020~~2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the first ~~six~~three months of fiscal ~~2021 other than those described in Note 2 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contained in this quarterly report.~~2022.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of ~~September 26, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, we had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements other than ~~$3.7~~$3.6 million of outstanding standby letters of credit, all of which were under the Revolver.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks, which arise during the normal course of business from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Rates. We currently have variable rate debt outstanding under our credit agreements. We regularly evaluate the impact of interest rate changes on our net income and cash flow and take action to limit our exposure when appropriate.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. Our Swiss operations utilize the Swiss franc as the functional currency, our French and German operations utilize the euro as the functional currency and our Polish operations utilize the Polish zloty as the functional currency. As a result, we are exposed to risk associated with fluctuating currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and these currencies. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in earnings. Approximately 8%9% of our net sales were impacted by foreign currency fluctuations for ~~both~~ the ~~three- and six-month periods~~three-month period ended ~~September 26, 2020~~July 3, 2021 compared to 8%9% for ~~both~~ the ~~three- and six-month periods ended September 28, 2019.~~same period in the prior year. We expect that this proportion is likely to increase as we seek to increase our penetration of foreign markets, particularly within the aerospace and defense markets. Foreign currency transaction exposure arises primarily from the transfer of foreign currency from one subsidiary to another within the group, and to foreign currency denominated trade receivables. Unrealized currency translation gains and losses are recognized upon translation of the foreign operations’ balance sheets to U.S. dollars. Because our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars, changes in currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies have had, and will continue to have, an impact on our earnings. We periodically enter into derivative financial instruments in the form of forward exchange contracts to reduce the effect of fluctuations in exchange rates on certain third-party sales transactions denominated in non-functional currencies. Based on the accounting guidance related to derivatives and hedging activities, we record derivative financial instruments at fair value. For derivative financial instruments designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on these hedges is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, and is reclassified into earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. As of ~~September 26, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, we had no derivatives.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of ~~September 26, 2020.~~July 3, 2021. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of ~~September 26, 2020,~~July 3, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were (1) designed to ensure that information relating to our Company required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and (2) effective, in that they provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the three-month period ended ~~September 26, 2020~~July 3, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are involved in litigation and administrative proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. We do not believe that any litigation or proceeding in which we are currently involved, either individually or in the aggregate, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, cash flow or prospects.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to our risk factors and uncertainties since the most recent filing of our Form 10-K. For a discussion of the risk factors, refer to Part I, Item 2, “Cautionary Statement as to Forward-Looking Information” contained in this quarterly report and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended ~~March 28, 2020.~~April 3, 2021.
