1. Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by RBC Bearings Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange ~~Commission.~~Commission (“SEC”). The interim financial statements included with this report have been prepared on a consistent basis with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form ~~10-K~~10-K/A for the fiscal year ended April ~~3, 2021.~~2, 2022. We condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual audited financial statements, which we prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP). As used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “RBC” and the “Company” mean RBC Bearings Incorporated and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates another meaning.

These statements reflect all adjustments, accruals, and estimates, consisting only of items of a normal recurring nature, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form ~~10-K.~~10-K/A.

The results of operations for the three- and ~~nine-month~~six-month periods ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the entire fiscal year ending April ~~2, 2022.~~1, 2023. The three- and ~~nine-month~~six-month periods ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022 and ~~December 26, 2020~~October 2, 2021 each included 13 weeks ~~39 weeks, 13 weeks~~ and 3926 weeks, respectively. The amounts shown are in thousands, unless otherwise indicated.

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~~10-K/A for the year ended April ~~3, 2021.~~2, 2022.

Significant changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting new accounting standards are discussed below.

Recent Accounting Standards Adopted

~~In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (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 U.S. 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 adopted this ASU effective April 4, 2021 and the impact of adoption was not material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

~~In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt -~~ Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The amendments in this ASU simplify the complexity associated with applying U.S. GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. More specifically, the amendments focus on the guidance for convertible instruments and derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted this ASU in fiscal 2022.

The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Adoption of this ASU did simplify the accounting of the 5.00% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (“MCPS”) referred to in Note 5 by removing the requirement to assess the financial instrument for beneficial conversion features and clarifying how diluted EPS should be calculated using the “if-converted” method. Refer to Note 6 for further details regarding the “if-converted” method.

~~In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08,~~ ~~Business Combinations (~~~~Topic 840):~~ ~~Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.~~ The amendments in this ASU require that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts in accordance with Topic 606 as if it had originated the contracts. Generally, this should result in an acquirer recognizing and measuring the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities consistent with how they were recognized and measured in the acquiree’s financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted this ASU in fiscal 2022 and the impact of adoption was not material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.Not applicable.

Recent Accounting Standards Yet to Be Adopted

In March 2020, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ~~ASU~~Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The objective of the standard is to address operational challenges likely to arise in accounting for contract modifications and hedge accounting due to reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The standard update is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. ~~An entity~~This guidance is available immediately and may ~~elect~~be implemented in any period prior to ~~apply~~ the ~~amendments for contract modifications by topic or industry subtopic as~~guidance expiration on December 31, 2022. The Company will adopt this ASU during the third quarter of ~~any date from~~our fiscal year. The impact of the ~~beginning~~adoption of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. Once elected for a topic or industry subtopic, the amendments in this standard update ~~must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract~~is dependent on the Company's contracts modifications for that topic or industry subtopic. An entity may elect to apply the amendments for eligible hedging relationships existing as of the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020 and to new eligible hedging relationships entered into after the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020. If an entity elects to apply any of the amendments for an eligible hedging relationship existing as of the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020, any adjustments as a result of ~~those elections must be reflected as of~~reference rate reform; however, the ~~beginning of that interim period. If an entity elects to apply any~~Company does not expect the adoption of the amendments ~~for~~associated with hedging relationships to have a new hedging relationship entered into between the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020 and March 12, 2020, any adjustments as a result of those elections must be reflected as of the beginning of the hedging relationship. The Company has not yet assessed thematerial impact ~~of adoption will have~~ on the ~~Company’s~~Company's consolidated financial statements.

Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after April ~~2, 2022~~1, 2023 are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of orders meeting the definition of a contract for which work has not been performed or has been partially performed and excludes unexercised contract options. The duration of 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, which allows companies to exclude remaining performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less. 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 ~~$289,870~~$305,457 at ~~January~~October 1, 2022. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately ~~59%~~63% and ~~86%~~91% 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 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 ~~January~~October 1, 2022 and April ~~3, 2021,~~2, 2022, current contract assets were ~~$4,499~~$4,707 and ~~$5,584,~~$3,882, respectively, and included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The ~~decrease~~increase in contract assets was primarily due to ~~amounts billed to customers during the period partially offset by~~ the recognition of revenue related to the satisfaction or partial satisfaction of performance obligations prior to ~~billing.~~billing partially offset by amounts billed to customers during the period. As of ~~January~~October 1, 2022 and April ~~3, 2021,~~2, 2022, the Company did not have any contract assets classified as noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheets. ~~There were $0 and $77 of impairment losses related to the Company’s contract assets during the three and nine months ended January 1, 2022, respectively.~~

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 ~~January~~October 1, 2022 and April ~~3, 2021,~~2, 2022, current contract liabilities were ~~$14,038~~$22,414 and ~~$16,998,~~$19,556, respectively, and included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The ~~decrease~~increase in current contract liabilities was primarily due to ~~the amount of advanced~~advance payments received and ~~reclassifications between current and~~the reclassification of a portion of advance payments received from the noncurrent ~~contract liabilities based on anticipated timing of performance obligations and revenue recognized during the period. $2,205~~portion of contract liabilities ~~were acquired during the quarter as part of the Dodge acquisition (see Note 13).~~partially offset by revenue recognized on customer contracts. For the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022, the Company recognized revenues ~~related to~~of $3,606 and $7,474, respectively, that were included in the contract ~~liabilities~~liability balance as of ~~$3,783 and $10,562, respectively.~~April 2, 2022. For the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~December 26, 2020,~~October 2, 2021, the Company recognized revenues ~~related to~~of $2,129 and $6,779, respectively, that were included in the contract ~~liabilities of $2,291 and $10,056, respectively.~~ liability balance at April 3, 2021.

As of ~~January~~October 1, 2022 and April ~~3, 2021,~~2, 2022, noncurrent contract liabilities were ~~$8,072~~$9,295 and ~~$3,754,~~$10,401, respectively, and included within other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The ~~increase~~decrease in noncurrent contract liabilities was primarily due to ~~the amount of advanced~~advance payments received ~~and reclassifications between~~offset by the reclassification of a portion of advance payments received to the current ~~and noncurrent~~portion of contract ~~liabilities based on anticipated timing of performance obligations and revenue recognized during the period.~~ liabilities.

~~Accounts Receivable~~Variable Consideration ~~- As of January 1, 2022 and April 3, 2021, accounts receivable with customers, net, were $199,785 and $110,472, respectively.~~

~~Variable Consideration~~

The amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods and services is not generally subject to significant variations. However, the Company does offer certain customers rebates, prompt payment discounts, end-user discounts, the right to return eligible products, and/or other forms of variable consideration. The Company estimates this variable consideration using the expected value amount, which is based on historical experience. The Company includes estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The Company adjusts the estimate of revenue at the earlier of when the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive changes or when the consideration becomes fixed.

5. ~~Stockholders’ Equity~~

~~Preferred Stock~~

We are authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share, in one or more series and to fix the powers, designations, preferences and relative participating, option or other rights thereof, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption terms, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series, without any further vote or action by our stockholders.

On September 24, 2021, we completed an offering of 4,600,000 shares of 5.00% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (“MCPS”) in a public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including 600,000 shares issued pursuant to the full exercise of the option granted to the underwriters of the MCPS offering to purchase additional shares solely to cover over-allotments. The trading symbol for the MCPS is “ROLLP.” The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $445,273 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. On November 1, 2021, the Company used the proceeds to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of the Dodge Mechanical Power Transmission business (“Dodge”) from ABB Asea Brown Boveri Ltd.

Holders of MCPS are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors, or an authorized committee thereof, out of funds legally available for payment, cumulative dividends at the annual rate of 5.00% of the liquidation preference of $100 per share, payable in cash or, subject to certain limitations, by delivery of shares of common stock or any combination of cash and shares of common stock, at our election; provided, however, that any unpaid dividends on the MCPS will continue to accumulate as described in the Certificate of Designations that sets forth the rights, preferences and privileges of the MCPS. During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company had accrued dividends of $5,751, which were included in the dividend payment to be made on January 15, 2022.

~~The MCPS has a liquidation preference of $100 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. As of January 1, 2022, the MCPS had an aggregate liquidation preference of $466,261.~~

Subject to certain exceptions, no dividend or distribution will be declared or paid on shares of our common stock, and no common stock will be purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for consideration by us or any of our subsidiaries unless, in each case, all accumulated and unpaid dividends for all preceding dividend periods have been declared and paid, or a sufficient amount of cash or number of shares of common stock has been set apart for the payment of such dividends, on all outstanding shares of MCPS. In the event of our voluntary or involuntary liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, no distribution of our assets may be made to holders of our common stock until we have paid holders of MCPS, each of which will be entitled to receive a liquidation preference in the amount of $100 per share plus accumulated and unpaid dividends.

Unless earlier converted or redeemed, each share of MCPS will automatically convert, for settlement on or about October 15, 2024, into between 0.4413 and 0.5405 shares of common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The conversion rate that will apply to mandatory conversions will be determined based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices over the 20 consecutive trading days beginning on, and including, the 21st scheduled trading day immediately before October 15, 2024. The conversion rate applicable to mandatory conversions may in certain circumstances be increased to compensate holders of the MCPS for certain unpaid accumulated dividends.

~~Common Stock~~

We are authorized to issue 60,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if and when declared by our Board of Directors, and to share ratably in our assets legally available for distribution to our stockholders in the event of liquidation after giving effect to any liquidation preference for the benefit of the MCPS or any other preferred stock then outstanding. Holders of common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption, or conversion rights. The holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. The holders of a majority of the shares of common stock can elect all of the directors and can control our management and affairs.

On September 24, 2021, we completed an offering of 3,450,000 shares of common stock in a public offering registered under the Securities Act at an offering price of $185 per share, including 450,000 shares issued pursuant to the full exercise of the option granted to the underwriters of the offering to purchase additional shares. The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $605,457 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. On November 1, 2021, the Company used the proceeds to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge.

6. Net ~~Income~~Income/(Loss) Per Share Available to Common Stockholders

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

Diluted net ~~income~~income/(loss) per share available to common stockholders is computed by dividing net ~~income~~income/(loss) available to common stockholders 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 exercise of stock options and the conversion of ~~MCPS~~5.00% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (“MCPS”) to common shares. The MCPS was issued on September 24, 2021.

We exclude outstanding stock options, stock awards and the MCPS from the calculations if the effect would be anti-dilutive. The dilutive effect of the MCPS is calculated using the if-converted method. The if-converted method assumes that these securities were converted to shares of common stock at the later of the September 24, 2021 issuance date or the beginning of the reporting period to the extent that the effect is dilutive. If the effect is anti-dilutive, we calculate net ~~income~~income/(loss) per share available to common stockholders by adjusting net ~~income~~income/(loss) in the numerator for the effect of the cumulative MCPS dividends for the respective period.

For the three- and ~~nine-month~~six-month periods ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022, the effect of assuming the conversion of the 4,600,000 shares of MCPS into shares of common stock was anti-dilutive, and therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders. Accordingly, net ~~income~~income/(loss) was reduced by cumulative MCPS dividends, as presented in our consolidated statement of operations, for purposes of calculating net ~~income~~income/(loss) available to common stockholders.

For the three months ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022, ~~all~~90,796 employee stock options and restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders as the Company generated a loss for the period. For the nine months ended January 1, 2022, 164,265 employee stock options and 200485 restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~December 26, 2020, 443,294~~October 1, 2022, 110,692 employee stock options and 1,000 restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders. For the nine months ended December 26, 2020, 480,631 employee stock options and 1,2809,780 restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders. The inclusion of these employee stock options and restricted shares would have been anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended October 2, 2021, no employee stock options or restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders. For the six months ended October 2, 2021, 159,925 employee stock options and no restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders. The inclusion of these employee stock options would have been anti-dilutive.

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~~income/(loss) per share available to common stockholders. ~~Since we were in a loss position for the three months ended January 1, 2022, basic net loss per share was the same as diluted net loss per share.~~

~~7. Cash and Cash Equivalents~~Fair value is defined as the price that would be expected to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

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

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

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

As a result of the occurrence of triggering events such as purchase accounting for acquisitions, the Company does measure certain assets and liabilities based on Level 3 inputs.

Financial Instruments:

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term borrowings are a reasonable estimate of their fair value. Long-term assets held on our balance sheet related to benefit plan obligations are measured at fair value. Due to the nature of fair value calculations for variable-rate debt, the carrying value of the Company’s long-term variable-rate debt is a reasonable estimate of its fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate debt, based on quoted market prices, was $421,745 and $463,750 at October 1, 2022 and April 2, 2022, respectively. The carrying value of this debt was $492,822 at October 1, 2022 and $492,396 at April 2, 2022. The fair value of long-term fixed-rate debt was measured using Level 2 inputs. The Company ~~considers all highly liquid investments purchased~~does not believe it has significant concentrations of risk associated with ~~an original maturity of three months or less~~the counterparties to ~~be cash equivalents. The Company maintains~~ its cash accounts primarily with Bank of America, N.A., JPMorgan Chase & Co., HSBC Holdings plc, Credit Suisse Group AG, and Wells Fargo & Company. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.financial instruments.

We evaluate our reportable operating segments periodically, as well as when changes in our operating segments occur. For changes in reportable segments, we reassign goodwill using a relative fair value allocation approach as mentioned in tickmark 1 above. As a result of this change in segments during the quarter, the Company performed an interim goodwill impairment analysis and determined that the estimated fair values of the segments exceeded their carrying values (including goodwill). As such, there was no impairment as a result of this change.

Domestic Credit Facility

On November 1, 2021 RBC Bearings Incorporated, our top holding company, and our Roller Bearing Company of America, Inc. subsidiary (“RBCA”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer and the other lenders party thereto, and terminated the Company’s prior Credit Agreement, which was entered into with Wells Fargo in 2015 (the “2015 Credit Agreement”). The New Credit Agreement provides the Company with (a) a $1,300,000 term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), which was used to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge and to pay related fees and expenses, and (b) a $500,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Facilities”). Debt issuance costs associated with the New Credit Agreement totaled $14,947 and will be amortized over the life of the New Credit Agreement. ~~When the 2015 Credit Agreement was terminated the Company wrote off $890 of previously unamortized debt issuance costs.~~

Amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bear interest at either, at the Company’s option, (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (i) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1.00% and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (b) the LIBOR rate plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin is based on the ~~Company's~~Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA from time to time. Currently, the ~~Company's~~Company’s margin is ~~0.75%~~0.50% for base rate loans and ~~1.75%~~1.50% for LIBOR rate loans. The Facilities are subject to a “LIBOR” floor of 0.00% and contain “hard-wired” LIBOR replacement provisions as set forth in the New Credit Agreement. ~~We are also required to pay a commitment fee on the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Facility as well as letter of credit fees on any amounts secured by the revolver.~~ As of ~~January~~October 1, 2022, the Company’s commitment fee rate is ~~0.25%~~0.20% and the letter of credit fee rate ~~is 1.75%~~was 1.50%.

The Term Loan ~~Facility and the Revolving Credit~~ Facility will mature on November 2, 2026 ~~(the “Maturity Date”).~~and amortizes in quarterly installments with the balance payable on the Maturity Date. The Company can elect to prepay some or all of the outstanding balance from time to time without ~~penalty. Commencing one full fiscal quarter after the execution of the New Credit Agreement, the Term Loan Facility~~penalty, which will ~~amortize in~~offset future quarterly ~~installments with the balance payable on the Maturity Date unless otherwise extended in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Facility.~~amortization installments. The required future principal payments on the Term Loan Facility are ~~approximately $16,250~~$0 for the remainder of fiscal ~~2022, $65,000 for fiscal~~ 2023, ~~$73,125~~$0 for fiscal 2024, ~~$105,625~~and $0 for fiscal 2025, ~~$138,125~~due to prepayments previously made, and approximately $87,500 for fiscal 2026, and ~~$901,875~~$942,500 for fiscal 2027. The Revolving Credit Facility will mature on November 2, 2026, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility will be payable.

The New Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including the following financial ~~covenants beginning with the test period ending December 31, 2021:~~covenants: (a) a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio of 5.50:1.00, which maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio shall decrease during certain subsequent test periods as set forth in the New Credit Agreement (provided that, no more than once during the term of the Facilities, such maximum ratio applicable at such time may be increased by the ~~Borrower~~Company by 0.50:1.00 for a period of 12 months after the consummation of a material acquisition), and (b) a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio of 2.00:1.00. As of October 1, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

Senior Notes

On October 7, 2021, RBCA issued $500,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.375% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes were approximately $491,992 after deducting initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses. On November 1, 2021, the Company used the proceeds to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge.

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~~was extinguished in February 2022 and a CHF 15,000 (approximately $15,383) revolving credit facility (the “Foreign Revolver”), which ~~continues in effect until~~was 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~~as of ~~the Foreign Credit Agreements. As of January~~October 1, ~~2022, approximately $76 in unamortized debt issuance costs remained.~~2022.

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 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 January 1, 2022, 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 two operating companies in the Swiss Tool System group of companies.

As of January 1, 2022, there was approximately $2,082 outstanding under the Foreign Term Loan and no amounts outstanding under the Foreign Revolver, and Schaublin had the ability to borrow up to $16,439 under the Foreign Revolver. Schaublin’s required future principal payments are approximately $0 for the remainder of fiscal 2022, $0 for fiscal 2023 through fiscal 2024 and $2,082 for fiscal 2025.

~~11. 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.~~March 30, 2019, although certain tax credits generated in earlier years are open under statute from March 29, 2008. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years ending before March ~~31, 2018.~~30, 2019.

The effective income tax rates for the three-month periods ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022 and ~~December 26, 2020~~October 2, 2021, were ~~105.6%~~18.1% and ~~17.9%~~223.5%, 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~~foreign income taxes, and nondeductible stock-based compensation, that increase the rate. The effective rate is higher in the three-month period ended January 1, 2022 because of non-deductible transaction costs incurred in connection with the Dodge acquisition and executive compensation deductions that may be disallowed under Section 162(m).

The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022 of ~~105.6%~~18.1% includes ~~$473~~$2,372 of tax benefits associated with share-based compensation ~~partially offset by $146~~and $174 of other items. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022 would have been ~~134.6%~~22.9%.

The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended ~~December 26, 2020~~October 2, 2021 would have been ~~21.4%~~53.5%. 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, ~~reserve,~~ pertaining primarily to federal and state credits and state tax, is estimated to be approximately ~~$1,429 over the next 12 months.~~$3,068.

Income tax expense for the six-month period ended October 1, 2022 was $20,165 compared to $7,868 for the six-month period ended October 2, 2021. Our effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended October 1, 2022 was 19.9% compared to 25.8% for the six-month period ended October 2, 2021. The effective income tax rate for the ~~nine-month~~six-month period ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022 ~~was 24.7% compared to 19.6%~~of 19.9% includes $2,971 of tax benefits associated with share-based compensation partially offset by $187 of other items. The effective income tax rate without these benefits and other items for the ~~nine-month~~six-month period ended ~~December 26, 2020.~~October 1, 2022 would have been 23.0%. The effective income tax rate for the ~~nine-month~~six-month period ended ~~January 1, 2022~~October 2, 2021 of ~~24.7%~~25.8% includes ~~$2,703~~$2,231 of tax benefits associated with share-based compensation ~~and partially~~ offset by the establishment of a $1,853 valuation allowance for capital loss carryforwards we ~~do not~~don’t expect to ~~recognize.~~recognize and $60 of other items. The effective income tax rate without these benefits and other items for the ~~nine-month~~six-month period ended ~~January 1, 2022~~October 2, 2021 would have been ~~26.4%~~27.2%. The effective income tax rate for the nine-month period ended December 26, 2020 of 19.6% included $1,682 of tax benefits associated with share-based compensation. The effective income tax rate without these benefits and other items for the nine-month period ended December 26, 2020 would have been 21.5%.

13. Dodge Acquisition

On November 1, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of Dodge for approximately $2,908,241, net of cash acquired and subject to certain adjustments. The purchase price was paid with (i) ~~$1,285,053~~$1,285,761 of borrowing under the Term Loan Facility, net of issuance costs, ~~(see Note 10),~~ (ii) ~~$1,050,730~~$1,050,811 of net proceeds from ~~the~~ common stock and MCPS offerings, ~~(see Note 5),~~ (iii) ~~$491,992~~$494,200 of net proceeds from the Senior Notes offering, ~~(see Note 10),~~ and (iv) approximately ~~$80,466~~$77,469 of cash on hand. Since the close of the transaction, purchase price adjustments totaling $22,966 have been recorded.

In the acquisition, the Company purchased 100% of the capital stock of certain entities, including Dodge Mechanical Power Transmission Company Inc. (now known as Dodge Industrial, Inc.), and certain other assets relating to ABB Asea Brown Boveri ~~Ltd’s~~Ltd.’s mechanical power transmission business.

With ~~headquarters~~offices in Greenville, South Carolina, Dodge is a leading manufacturer of mounted bearings, gearings and mechanical products with market-leading brand recognition. Dodge manufactures a complete line of mounted bearings, enclosed gearing and power transmission components across a diverse set of industrial end markets. Dodge primarily operates across the construction and mining aftermarket, and the food & beverage, warehousing and general machinery verticals, with sales predominately in the Americas.

When the Company entered into the Dodge acquisition agreement in July 2021, its obligation to pay the purchase price was supported by a $2,800,000 bridge financing commitment (the “Bridge Commitment”), which was replaced prior to the closing of the acquisition by the equity and debt financings described in Notes 5 and 10 and cash on hand.

Acquisition costs incurred infor the ~~three- and nine- month periods~~fiscal year ended ~~January 1,~~April 2, 2022 totaled ~~$20,141 and $21,574~~$22,598 and were recorded as period expenses and included within other, net within the consolidated statements of operations.

Remaining acquisition-related costs incurred for the three and six months ended October 1, 2022 were immaterial. This acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. The ~~preliminary~~ purchase price allocation ~~is subject to change pending a final valuation~~will be completed during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 as we finalize the ~~assets~~impact from taxes and ~~liabilities acquired.~~other minor items. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on their fair values at the date of acquisition as follows:

The goodwill associated with this acquisition is the result of expected synergies from combining the operations of the acquired business with the ~~Company’s~~Company's operations, and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as an assembled workforce. ~~The majority~~$44,941 of the acquired goodwill is ~~not~~ deductible for tax purposes.

The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets of $1,385,082, consisting primarily of customer relationships and trade ~~name,~~names, was determined using the income approach. Specifically, a multi-period, excess earnings method was utilized for the customer relationships and the relief-from-royalty method was utilized for the trade name. The fair value of the customer relationships, $1,185,000, is being amortized based on the economic pattern of benefit over a period of 24 years; the fair value of the trade ~~name,~~names, $200,000, is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a ~~26 year~~26-year term. These amortization periods represent the estimated useful lives of the assets.

The results of operations for Dodge have been included in the Company’s financial statements for the period subsequent to the completion of the acquisition on November 1, 2021. Dodge contributed ~~$109,976~~$192,267 of revenue and ~~$5,348~~$38,152 of operating income for the ~~quarter~~three months ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022. ~~The following table reflects the unaudited pro forma~~Dodge contributed $369,740 of revenue and $68,646 of operating ~~results of the Company~~income for the ~~three- and nine-month fiscal periods~~six months ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022 and December 26, 2020, which gives effect to the acquisition of Dodge as if the Company had been acquired on March 29, 2020. The pro forma results are based on assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred had the acquisitions been effective March 29, 2020, nor are they intended to be indicative of results that may occur in the future. The underlying pro forma information includes the historical financial results of the Company and the acquired business adjusted for certain items such as amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition costs incurred. The pro forma information does not include the effects of any synergies, cost reduction initiatives or anticipated integration costs related to the acquisitions.2022.

Overview

We are a well-known international manufacturer and maker of ~~highly-engineered~~highly engineered bearings and precision 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 categories, we focus primarily on the higher end of the bearing and engineered component markets where we believe our value-added manufacturing and engineering capabilities enable us to differentiate ourselves from our competitors and enhance profitability. We believe our expertise has enabled us to garner leading positions in many of the product markets in which we primarily compete. With 5356 facilities in 10 countries, of which 3837 are manufacturing facilities, we have been able to significantly broaden our end markets, products, customer base and geographic reach.

Previously we operated under four reportable business segments – Plain Bearings, Roller Bearings, Ball Bearings, and Engineered Products – but the Dodge acquisition has resulted in a change in the internal organization of the Company and how our chief operating decision maker makes operating decisions, assesses the performance of the business, and allocates resources so that we now operate under two reportable business segments – Aerospace/Defense and Industrial:

●

Aerospace/Defense. This segment represents the end markets for the Company’s highly engineered bearings and precision components used in commercial aerospace, defense aerospace, and ~~sea~~marine and ground defense applications.

●

Industrial. This segment represents the end markets for the Company’s highly engineered bearings, gearings and precision components used in various industrial applications including: power transmission; construction, mining, energy and specialized equipment manufacturing; semiconductor production equipment manufacturing; agricultural machinery, commercial truck and automotive manufacturing; and tool holding.

Financial information for fiscal ~~2021~~2022 has been recast to conform to the new segment presentation.

The markets for our products are cyclical, and we have endeavored to mitigate this cyclicality by entering into single and sole-source relationships and long-term purchase agreements, through diversification across multiple market segments within the Aerospace/Defense and 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 ~~highly-engineered~~highly engineered bearings and precision 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. The acquisition of Dodge has had a profound impact on our sales volumes to distributors and other aftermarket customers. We will further 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

~~Although we experienced a comparative increase in our~~

We are continuing to see the recovery of the commercial aerospace business, which increased by 31.3% for the three-month period ended October 1, 2022 versus the same period last year. We anticipate this recovery to continue throughout the rest of the fiscal year ~~the overall recovery of this space has been marginally slower than anticipated. The orders~~and beyond.

Defense sales, which represented approximately ~~38.0%~~32.3% of segment sales ~~this period,~~during the quarter, were down ~~more than 10.0%~~15.3% year over year. This is in part due to the timing of delivery on parts that require government approval and/or completion of certain milestone achievements prior to invoicing.

~~Excluding Dodge sales, sales to~~The increase in our industrial ~~segment increased 21.3% year over year. This~~sales reflects a pattern of sustained growth ~~in our industrial sales,~~over the last year, with strong results in several areas. ~~Mining increased by more than 50.0% year over year, driven by strong order activity from large OEM customers.~~ Our oil and gas business ~~this~~during the quarter ~~showed the start~~continued a pattern of ~~a strong recovery~~growth which is expected to continue into future periods. Other notable strengths in industrial were in semiconductor and general industrial markets.

On November 1, 2021, RBC completed the acquisition of Dodge, which operates in our Industrial segment, with a significant amount of their sales derived from customers in industrial distribution. Including the positive impact of this acquisition, theThe Company expects net sales to be approximately ~~$340.0~~$348.0 million to ~~$350.0~~$360.0 million in the ~~fourth~~third quarter of fiscal ~~2022.~~2023.

We experienced strong cash flow generation during the ~~third~~second quarter of fiscal ~~2022~~2023 (as discussed in the section “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below). ~~With the addition of Dodge, we~~We expect this trend to continue throughout the fiscal year as customer demand continues to be significant. We believe that operating cash flows and available credit under the Revolving Credit Facility ~~and Foreign Revolver~~ will provide adequate resources to fund internal growth initiatives for the foreseeable future, including at least the next 12 months. ~~For further discussion regarding the funding of the Dodge acquisition, refer to Part I, Item 1 – Notes 5, 10 and 13.~~ As of ~~January~~October 1, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of ~~$255.5~~$88.5 million, of which approximately ~~$29.4~~$25.2 million was cash held by our foreign operations.

Net sales increased $135.4 million, or 30.2% for the nine-month period ended January 1, 2022 over the same period last year. The increase in net sales was mainly the result of a 106.6% increase in Industrial sales partially offset by a 7.8% decrease in Aerospace/Defense sales. The increase in Industrial sales was felt across many end markets, notably in mining, energy, and general industrial markets. The decrease in Aerospace/Defense sales was realized in both our commercial and defense markets. While the first half of the year reflected difficult results in aerospace and defense, we have seen an improvement in our commercial aerospace end market, which has slowed the decline in this segment. This trend is expected to continue to improve in future periods.

~~Segment Information~~

Segment Information

We previously reported our financial results under four operating segments (Plain Bearings; Roller Bearings; Ball Bearings; and Engineered Products), but the Dodge acquisition has resulted in a change in the internal organization of the Company and how our chief operating decision maker makes operating decisions, assesses the performance of the business, and allocates resources. Accordingly, we will now report our financial results under two operating segments: Aerospace/Defense; and Industrial. Financial information for fiscal ~~2021~~2022 has been recast to conform to the new segment presentation. We use gross margin as the primary measurement to assess the financial performance of each reportable segment.

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, including the Dodge acquisition completed on November 1, 2021. 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 Revolving Credit Facility ~~and Foreign Revolver~~ will provide adequate resources to fund internal growth initiatives for the foreseeable future. For further discussion regarding the funding of the Dodge acquisition, refer to Part I, Item 1 – ~~Notes 5, 10 and~~Note 13.

Our ability to meet future working capital, capital ~~expenditures~~expenditure 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, relocate, 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 ~~January~~October 1, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of ~~$255.5~~$88.5 million of which approximately ~~$29.4~~$25.2 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 subsidiaries.

Domestic Credit Facility

~~The~~

On November 1, 2021 RBC Bearings Incorporated, our top holding company, and our Roller Bearing Company of America, Inc. subsidiary (“RBCA”) entered into ~~the New~~a Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer and the other lenders party thereto, ~~on November 1, 2021~~ and terminated the Company’s prior Credit Agreement, which was entered into with Wells Fargo in 2015 (the “2015 Credit ~~Agreement.~~Agreement”). The New Credit Agreement provides the Company with (a) ~~the~~a $1,300.0 million ~~Term~~term loan facility (the “Term Loan ~~Facility,~~Facility”), which was used to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge and to pay related fees and expenses, and (b) ~~the~~a $500.0 million ~~Revolving~~revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit ~~Facility.~~Facility” and together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Facilities”). Debt issuance costs associated with the New Credit Agreement totaled $14.9 million and will be amortized over the life of the New Credit Agreement. ~~When the 2015 Credit Agreement was terminated the Company wrote off $890 of previously unamortized debt issuance costs relating to the 2015 Credit Agreement.~~

Amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bear interest at either, at the Company’s option, (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (i) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1.00% and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (b) the LIBOR rate plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin is based on the ~~Company's~~Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA from time to time. Currently, the ~~Company's~~Company’s margin is ~~0.75%~~0.50% for base rate loans and ~~1.75%~~1.50% for LIBOR rate loans. The Facilities are subject to a “LIBOR” floor of 0.00% and contain “hard-wired” LIBOR replacement provisions as set forth in the New Credit Agreement. As of ~~January~~October 1, 2022, the Company’s commitment fee rate is ~~0.25%~~0.20% and the letter of credit fee rate ~~is 1.75%~~was 1.50%.

The Term Loan ~~Facility and the Revolving Credit~~ Facility will mature on November 2, ~~2026.~~2026 and amortizes in quarterly installments with the balance payable on the Maturity Date. The Company can elect to prepay some or all of the outstanding balance from time to time without ~~penalty. Commencing one full fiscal quarter after the execution of the New Credit Agreement,~~penalty, which will offset future quarterly amortization installments. The required future principal payments on the Term Loan Facility are $0 for the remainder of fiscal 2023, $0 for fiscal 2024, and $0 for fiscal 2025, due to prepayments previously made, and approximately $87.5 million for fiscal 2026, and $942.5 million for fiscal 2027. The Revolving Credit Facility will ~~amortize in quarterly installments as set forth in Part I, Item 1 – Note 10, with~~mature on November 2, 2026, at which time all amounts outstanding under the ~~balance payable on the Maturity Date unless otherwise extended in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Facility.~~Revolving Credit Facility will be payable.

The New Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including the following financial ~~covenants beginning with the test period ending December 31, 2021:~~covenants: (a) a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio of 5.50:1.00, which maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio shall decrease during certain subsequent test periods as set forth in the New Credit Agreement (provided that, no more than once during the term of the Facilities, such maximum ratio applicable at such time may be increased by the ~~Borrower~~Company by 0.50:1.00 for a period of ~~twelve (12)~~12 months after the consummation of a material acquisition), and (b) a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio of 2.00:1.00. As of October 1, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

As of ~~January~~October 1, 2022, ~~$1,300.0~~$1,030.0 million was outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and ~~none~~approximately $3.7 million of the Revolving Credit Facility was being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure the Company’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs, and the Company had the ability to borrow up to an additional ~~$496.5~~$496.3 million under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Senior Notes

On October 7, 2021, RBCA issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of ~~the~~4.375% Senior Notes ~~and used the approximately $492.0 million of~~due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance ~~(after~~of the Senior Notes were approximately $492.0 million after deducting initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering ~~expenses)~~expenses. On November 1, 2021, the Company used the proceeds to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge.

The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to ~~the Indenture~~an indenture with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as ~~trustee.~~trustee (the “Indenture”). The Indenture contains covenants limiting the ability of the Company to (i) incur additional indebtedness or guarantee indebtedness, (ii) declare or pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions to stockholders, (iii) make investments, (iv) create liens or use assets as security in other transactions, (v) merge or consolidate, or sell, transfer, lease or dispose of substantially all of its assets, (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates, and (vii) sell or transfer certain assets.

As of January~~October 1, ~~2022, approximately $0.1 million in unamortized debt issuance costs remain.~~2022.

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 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 January 1, 2022, 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 January 1, 2022, there was approximately $2.1 million outstanding under the Foreign Term Loan and no amounts outstanding under the Foreign Revolver. Schaublin has the ability to borrow up to an additional $16.1 million under the Foreign Revolver as of January 1, 2022. Schaublin’s required future principal payments are approximately $0 for the remainder of fiscal 2022, $0 for fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024 and $2.1 million for fiscal 2025.

During the first ~~nine~~six months of fiscal ~~2022,~~2023, we generated cash of ~~$133.4~~$88.4 million from operating activities compared to ~~$110.6~~$93.5 million of cash generated during the same period of fiscal ~~2021.~~2022. The ~~increase~~decrease of ~~$22.8~~$5.1 million for fiscal ~~2022~~2023 was mainly a result of the ~~favorable~~unfavorable impact of a net change in operating assets and liabilities of ~~$24.4~~$66.9 million, ~~and~~partially offset by a favorable change in non-cash ~~charges~~activity of ~~$30.2~~$3.2 million ~~offset by a decrease~~and an increase in net income of ~~$31.8~~$58.6 million. It is important to note that our net income was affected by approximately $21.6 million of non-recurring costs related to the Dodge acquisition. Further, cash flows from operating activities only include two months of cash flow activity from Dodge. The ~~favorable~~unfavorable change in operating assets and liabilities is detailed in the table below, while the increase in non-cash charges resulted from ~~$17.2~~a $40.2 million increase in depreciation and amortization, partially offset by unfavorable changes of $15.8 million of share-based compensation charges, $11.3 million of amortization of deferred financing costs, $2.2 million of share-based compensation charges, $12.6 million of depreciation and amortization and $0.9 million of costs related to the extinguishment of debt partially offset by unfavorable changes of $1.8$7.8 million in deferred taxes, and ~~$0.9~~$2.1 million of ~~loss on disposition of assets.~~consolidation, restructuring, and other noncash charges.

During the first ~~nine~~six months of fiscal ~~2022,~~2023, we ~~used $2,839.5~~generated $0.4 million ~~for~~in investing activities as compared to generating $83.6 million ~~used~~ during the first ~~nine~~six months of fiscal ~~2021.~~2022. This ~~increase~~decrease in cash ~~used~~generated was attributable to ~~the acquisition~~$120.5 million less in proceeds from sale of ~~Dodge for $2,908.2 million~~marketable securities and an increase in capital expenditures of ~~$13.0~~$16.2 million, partially offset by a $30.0 million decrease in purchases of marketable securities, $0.5 million increase in proceeds from the sale of ~~$120.5 million~~assets and Dodge acquisition purchase price adjustments of highly liquid marketable securities during the current period and $45.1 million less in purchase of marketable securities compared to the same period in the prior year. The prior year also included $0.3 million of purchase accounting adjustments related to the acquisition of Swiss Tool.$23.0 million.

During the first ~~nine~~six months of fiscal ~~2022,~~2023, we ~~generated $2,810.3~~used $179.9 million ~~from~~in financing activities compared to ~~$4.6~~$1,020.3 million ~~used~~generated during the first ~~nine~~six months of fiscal ~~2021.~~2022. This ~~increase in~~decrease from cash generated to cash used was primarily attributable to ~~$1,286.2~~$605.7 million ~~of net~~ proceeds ~~received from the Term Loan Facility, $494.2 million of net proceeds received from the Senior Notes, $605.5 million of net proceeds received~~ from the issuance of common stock during

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures were ~~$14.9~~$15.2 million and ~~$21.8~~$23.1 million for the three- and ~~nine-month~~six-month periods ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022, respectively. We expect to make additional capital expenditures of ~~$7.0~~$15.0 million to ~~$12.0~~$20.0 million during the remainder of fiscal ~~2022~~2023 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.

Obligations and Commitments

The Company’s fixed contractual obligations and commitments are primarily comprised of our debt obligations disclosed in Part I, Item 1- Note 10 of this report. We also have lease obligations which are materially consistent with what we disclosed in our Form ~~10-K~~10-K/A for the fiscal year ended April 3, 2021 with the exception of what we’ve disclosed within Note 10 included in Part I, Item 1 of this report and additional lease obligations resulting from the acquisition of Dodge. The Company’s total lease obligations are $3.0 million for the remainder of fiscal 2022, $11.9 million for fiscal 2023, $10.1 million for fiscal 2024, $8.6 million for fiscal 2025, $8.0 million for fiscal 2026, $8.2 million for fiscal 2027 and $71.1 million thereafter.2, 2022.

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,~~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 ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report on Form ~~10-K~~10-K/A describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in preparation of ~~the Consolidated Financial Statements.~~our 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 ~~nine~~six months of fiscal ~~2022 other than the following:~~2023.

~~Valuation of Business Combinations~~

We allocate the amounts we pay for each acquisition to the assets we acquire and liabilities we assume based on their fair values at the date of acquisition, including identifiable intangible assets, which either arise from a contractual or legal right or are separable from goodwill. We base the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination on detailed valuations that use information and assumptions provided by management, which consider management’s best estimates of inputs and assumptions that a market participant would use. We allocate to goodwill any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Transaction costs associated with these acquisitions are expensed as incurred through other, net on the consolidated statements of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of ~~January~~October 1, 2022, we had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements other than ~~$3.6~~$3.7 million of outstanding standby letters of credit, all of which were under the Revolving Credit Facility.

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.~~the Term Loan Facility. 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. As discussed in Note 14 in Part I, Item I of this report, we entered into an interest rate swap on October 28, 2022.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. Our operations in the following countries utilize the following currencies as their functional currency:

	●Australia – Australian dollar	● India – rupee
	● Canada – Canadian dollar	● Mexico – peso
	● China – Chinese yuan	● Poland – zloty
	● France – euro	● Switzerland – Swiss franc
	● Germany – euro

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 12% ~~and 11%~~ of our net sales were impacted by foreign currency fluctuations for both the three- and ~~nine-month~~six-month periods ended ~~January~~October 1, 2022, ~~respectively,~~ compared to ~~11% and 10%~~9% for both the three- and ~~nine-month~~six-month periods ended ~~December 26, 2020, respectively.~~October 2, 2021. 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 ~~January~~October 1, 2022, we had no derivatives. As discussed in Note 14 in Part I, Item I of this report, we entered into an interest rate swap on October 28, 2022.

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”))~~1934) as of ~~January~~October 1, 2022. ~~Based~~This evaluation excluded the Dodge business acquired on ~~this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that,~~November 1, 2021 as we are currently in the process of ~~January 1, 2022, our disclosure~~integrating the internal controls and procedures ~~were (1) designed~~of Dodge into our internal controls over financial reporting. As provided under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, we will include the internal controls and procedures of Dodge in our annual assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting for our 2023 fiscal year.

Remediation of Material Weakness

To address the previously reported material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described in Part I, Item 4 of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended July 2, 2022, the Company enhanced and revised the design of existing controls and procedures to properly review employment agreements involving equity awards 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~~are accounted for ~~external purposes~~ in accordance with ~~generally accepted~~the latest accounting ~~principles.~~pronouncements. The Company’s internal audit department will test the operating effectiveness of management’s controls during the fiscal year.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

NoExcept for the changes related to the Company's remediation efforts described above, there has been no change in ~~our~~the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the ~~three-month period ended January 1, 2022~~second quarter of fiscal 2023 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 Securities Exchange ~~Act)~~Act of 1934).

As discussed ~~within~~in Note 13 included ~~within~~in Part I, Item 1 of this report, we acquired Dodge on November 1, 2021. We are currently in the process of integrating the internal controls and procedures of Dodge into our internal controls over financial reporting. As provided under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the applicable rules and regulations of the ~~Securities and Exchange Commission,~~SEC, we will include the internal controls and procedures of Dodge in our annual assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for our 2023 fiscal year.

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, besides those noted below.~~10-K/A filed with the SEC on August 5, 2022. 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~~10-K/A for the fiscal year ended April ~~3, 2021.~~2, 2022.

~~Quarterly performance can be affected by the timing of government product inspections and approvals.~~

A portion of our quarterly revenue is associated with contracts with the U.S. government that require onsite inspection and approval of the products by government personnel before we may ship the products, and we have no control over the timing of those inspections and approvals. If products scheduled for delivery in one quarter are not inspected or approved until the following quarter, the delay would adversely affect our sales and profitability for the quarter in which the shipments were scheduled.

~~We may fail to realize some or all of the anticipated benefits of the Dodge acquisition or those benefits may take longer to realize than expected.~~

We believe that there are significant benefits and synergies to be realized through leveraging the products, scale and combined enterprise customer bases of RBC and Dodge. However, the efforts to realize these benefits and synergies will be a complex process and may disrupt both companies’ existing operations if not implemented in a timely and efficient manner. The full benefits of the Dodge acquisition, including any anticipated sales or growth opportunities, may not be realized as expected or may not be achieved within the time frames we anticipate, or at all. Any data on the expected synergies from the Dodge acquisition included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information that was included in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 20, 2021 is based on various adjustments, assumptions and preliminary estimates. Such data have not been prepared, reviewed or analyzed by a third-party and may not be an accurate indication of the actual synergies we will realize, if any, from the Dodge acquisition and the integration of Dodge into our business. Failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition could adversely affect our results of operations or cash flows.

~~We may not be able to efficiently integrate Dodge into our operations.~~

The future success of the Dodge acquisition, including its anticipated benefits and cost savings, depends, in part, on our ability to optimize our operations and integrate Dodge, its systems, operations and personnel into our existing business. These activities will require time and involve dedication of various resources of the Company that would otherwise be dedicated to our existing operations. These integration efforts may accordingly adversely affect our other operations to the extent such efforts take resources or attention away from our other operations. If we experience difficulties in the integration process, the anticipated benefits of the Dodge acquisition may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected, which could have an adverse effect on us for an undetermined period. There can be no assurance that we will realize the operational or financial gains from the Dodge acquisition that we anticipated when originally determining to acquire Dodge.

~~Additional challenges, risks and uncertainties we may encounter as part of the integration process include the following:~~

●

~~we may face significant costs of integration and compliance with any laws or regulations applicable to Dodge or our combined company;~~

●

~~we may experience delays in the integration of management teams, strategies, operations, products and services;~~

●

~~there may be differences in business backgrounds, corporate cultures and management philosophies that may delay the successful integration of Dodge’s management personnel into our operations;~~

●

~~we may be unable to retain key Dodge employees;~~

●

~~we may not be able to create and enforce uniform standards, controls, procedures, policies and information systems across our combined company;~~

●

we may face challenges in integrating complex systems, technology, networks and other assets of Dodge into our operations in a seamless manner that minimizes any adverse impact on customers, suppliers, employees and other constituencies;

●

~~there may be potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses associated with the Dodge acquisition, including costs to integrate Dodge beyond current estimates; and~~

●

~~we may experience disruptions of, or the loss of momentum in, our or Dodge’s ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies.~~

Any of these factors could adversely affect our or Dodge’s ability to maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other constituencies or our ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Dodge acquisition, which could reduce earnings or otherwise adversely affect our business and financial results.

~~We incurred substantial debt in order to complete the Dodge acquisition, which could constrain our business and exposes us to the risk of defaults under our debt instruments.~~

As of January 1, 2022, we had approximately $1,790.3 million of total debt, net of deferred issuance costs, as a result of the completion of the Dodge acquisition. This debt could or will have important consequences, including, but not limited to:

●

~~this debt requires us to make significant interest and principal payments in the future;~~

●

a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations will be used to repay the principal and interest on our debt, thereby reducing the funds available to us for other purposes including for strategic acquisitions, working capital, capital expenditures, and general corporate purposes;

●

~~our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business, the competitive landscape and the markets in which we operate may be limited; and~~

●

~~we may be placed at a competitive disadvantage relative to other companies in our industry with less debt or comparable debt on more favorable terms.~~

Our ability to make scheduled payments on and to refinance our indebtedness depends on and is subject to our financial and operating performance and no assurance can be given that our business will generate sufficient cash flow to service our debt.

Additionally, our ability to comply with the financial and other covenants contained in our debt instruments could be affected by, among other things, changes in our results of operations, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the pricing of our products, our success at implementing cost reduction initiatives, our ability to successfully implement our overall business strategy, or changes in industry-specific or general economic conditions which are beyond our control. The breach of any of these covenants could result in a default or event of default under the New Credit Agreement and the indenture that governs the Notes, which, if not cured or waived, could result in our being required to repay these borrowings before their due date. If we are forced to refinance these borrowings on less favorable terms or cannot refinance these borrowings, our prospects, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected and could cause us to become bankrupt or otherwise insolvent. In addition, these covenants may restrict our ability to engage in transactions that we believe would otherwise be in the best interests of our business and stockholders.

~~Increases in interest rates would increase the cost of servicing Term Loan Facility and could reduce our profitability.~~

The $1,300.0 million outstanding under the Term Loan Facility bears interest at a variable rate. As a result, increases in interest rates would increase the cost of servicing the Term Loan Facility, and could materially reduce our profitability and cash flows. We have not entered into interest rate cap agreements on the Term Loan Facility. In addition, a transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) as a benchmark for establishing the applicable interest rate may affect the cost of servicing the Term Loan Facility. The Financial Conduct Authority of the United Kingdom has announced that it plans to no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR at some point in the future. Although the Term Loan Facility provides for alternative base rates, such alternative base rates may or may not be related to LIBOR, and the consequences of the phase–out of LIBOR cannot be entirely predicted at this time. The Credit Agreement for the Term Loan Facility includes language which would allow us to modify the rate used if and when the LIBOR phase-out occurs. The Company is currently evaluating whether or not to enter into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge our risk.
