NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Amounts in thousands, except share (unless otherwise stated), per share and option amounts)


 

 

1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 1, 2019, the Consolidated Statements of Operations, the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Earnings and the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity as of June 2, 2019, the Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Earnings for the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended June 2,December 1, 2019 and May 27,November 25, 2018 and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the 1339 weeks then ended have been prepared by Park Aerospace Corp., formerly Park Electrochemical Corp. (the “Company”), without audit. In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 2,December 1, 2019 and the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented. The Consolidated Statements of Operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any subsequent interim period.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 3, 2019.  There have been no significant changes to such accounting policies during the 1339 weeks ended June 2, 2019.December 1, 2019, except for adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842. (See Note 13, Accounting Pronouncements)

 

On July 25, 2018, the Company entered into a definitivean agreement to sell its Electronics Business for $145,000 in cash.  ThisThe Company completed this transaction was completed on December 4, 2018. (See Note 11).11, Discontinued Operations)

 

The Company has classified the operating results of its Electronics Business, together with certain costs related to the transaction, as discontinued operations, net of tax, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)ASC 205-20 Discontinued OperationsOperations. (See Note 11).11, Discontinued Operations)

On July 16, 2019, the Company filed with the State of New York Department of State a Certificate of Amendment of its Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, changing its name to “Park Aerospace Corp.” after the Board of Directors of the Company approved such amendment and the shareholders of the Company approved such amendment at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. On July 16, 2019, the Company also filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Kansas, a Certificate of Ownership and Merger whereby the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Park Aerospace Technologies Corp. (“PATC”), located at the Newton, Kansas Airport was merged into the Company and ceased to exist.

 

 

2. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.


 

Fair value measurements are broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows:

 

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market for the asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

 

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals or current market) and contractual prices for the underlying financial instrument, as well as other relevant economic measures.

 


Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

 

The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying value due to their short-term nature. Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are required to be recorded at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis. On a recurring basis, the Company records its marketable securities at fair value using Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. (See Note 3).3, Marketable Securities)

 

The Company’s non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include goodwill and any long-lived assets written down to fair value. To measure fair value of such assets, the Company uses Level 3 inputs consisting of techniques including an income approach and a market approach. The income approach is based on a discounted cash flow analysis and calculates the fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to a reporting unit and then discounting the after-tax cash flows to a present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis require the exercise of significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate discount rates, terminal values, growth rates and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. There were no transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy during the 1339 weeks ended June 2,December 1, 2019 and May 27,November 25, 2018. With respect to goodwill, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that fair value is less than carrying value. If, based on that assessment, the Company believes it is more likely than not that fair value is less than carrying value, a goodwill impairment test is performed. There have been no changes in events or circumstances which required impairment charges to be recorded during the 13 or 39 weeks ended June 2,December 1, 2019.

 

 

3. MARKETABLE SECURITIES

 

All marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, included in comprehensive earnings. Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and discounts, and interest and dividend income are included in interest and other income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The costs of securities sold are based on the specific identification method.

5. LEASES

 

The Company has operating leases related to land, office space, warehouse space and equipment. All of the Company’s leases have been assessed to be operating leases. Renewal options are included in the lease termterms to the extent the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the option. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. The incremental borrowing rate represents the Company’s ability to borrow on a collateralized basis over a term similar to the lease term. The leases typically contain renewal options for periods ranging from one year to ten years and require the Company to pay real estate taxes and other operating costs. The latest land lease expiration is 2068 assuming exercise of all applicable renewal options by the Company. The Company’s existing leases are not subject to any restrictions or covenants which preclude its ability to pay dividends, obtain financing or exercise its available renewal options.

 

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases as of June 2,December 1, 2019 are as follows:

The above payment schedule includes renewal options that the Company is reasonably likely to exercise. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Company’s balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight linestraight-line basis over the terms of the leases. The above payment schedule does not include lease payments of $588$199 in 2020 and $463 in 2021 for the Company’s idle facility in Fullerton, California that have been accrued on the condensed consolidated balance sheets in accrued liabilities.

 


 

For the three months13 weeks and 39 weeks ended June 2,December 1, 2019, the Company’s operating lease expense was $97.$88 and $278, respectively. Cash payments of $95,$274, pertaining to operating leases, are reflected in the condensed consolidated cash flow statement under cash flows from operating activities.

 

The following table sets forth the right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as of June 2,December 1, 2019:

In December 2018, the Company’s Park Aerospace Technologies Corp. (“PATC”) business unit located at the Newton, Kansas AirportPATC entered into a Development Agreement with the City of Newton, Kansas and the Board of County Commissioners of Harvey County, Kansas. Pursuant to this agreement, PATC agreed to construct and operate an additional manufacturing facility of approximately 90,000 square feet in size for the design, development and manufacture of advanced composite materials and parts, structures and assemblies for aerospace. PATC further agreed to equip the facility through the purchase of machinery, equipment and furnishings and to create additional new full-time employment of specified levels during a five yearfive-year period. In exchange for these agreements, the City and the County agreed to lease to PATC three acres of land at the Newton, Kansas Airport, in addition to the eight acres previously leased to PATC by the City and County. The City and County further agreed to provide financial and other assistance toward the construction of the additional facility as set forth in the Development Agreement. The Company estimates the total cost of the additional facility to be approximately $20 million, and the Company expects to complete the construction of the additional facility in the firstsecond half of the 2020 calendar year. As of June 2,December 1, 2019, the Company had $2,173$1,170 in equipment purchase obligations and $5,385 of construction-in-progress related to the additional facility. On July 16, 2019, PATC was merged into the Company and ceased to exist, and the Company assumed the rights and obligations of PATC, including the rights and obligations of PATC under the Development Agreement. (See Note 1, Consolidated Financial Statements)

 

 

6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

As of June 2,December 1, 2019, the Company had a 2018 Stock Option Plan (the “2018 Plan”), and no other stock-based compensation plan. The 2018 Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on May 8, 2018 and approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company on July 24, 2018 and provides for the grant of options to purchase up to 800,000 shares of common stock of the Company.Company to directors, employees and consultants. Prior to the 2018 Plan, the Company had the 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “2002 Plan”) which had also been approved by the Company’s shareholders and provided for the grant of stock options to directors and key employees of the Company. All options granted under the 2018 Plan and 2002 Plan have exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock of the Company at the time of grant which, pursuant to the terms of the such Plans, is the reported closing price of the common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date preceding the date the option is granted. Options granted under the Plans become exercisable 25% one year after the date of grant, with an additional 25% exercisable each succeeding anniversary of the date of grant, and expire 10 years after the date of grant. Upon termination of employment or service as a director of an optionee, all options held by the optionee that have not previously become exercisable shall terminate and all other options held by such optionee may be exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of such termination, for a limited time after such termination. Any shares of common stock subject to an option under the 2018 Plan which expires or is terminated unexercised as to such shares shall again become available for issuance under the 2018 Plan.

 


 

The 2002 Plan terminated on May 21, 2018, and authority to grant additional options under the 2002 Plan expired on that date. All options granted under the 2002 Plan will expire in April 2028 or earlier.

 

During the 1339 weeks ended June 2,December 1, 2019, the Company granted options under the 2018 Plan to purchase a total of 114,450 shares of common stock to its directors and certain of its employees. The future compensation expense to be recognized in earnings before income taxes is $454 and will be recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The weighted average fair value of the granted options was $3.97 per share using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rate of 2.24%-2.26%; expected volatility factor of 30.4%-31.5%; expected dividend yield of 2.43%; and estimated option term of 4.3-5.8 years.

 

The risk-free interest rates were based on U.S. Treasury rates at the date of grant with maturity dates approximately equal to the estimated terms of the options at the date of the grant. Volatility factors were based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The expected dividend yields were based on the regular quarterly cash dividend per share most recently declared by the Company and on the exercise price of the options granted during the 1339 weeks ended June 2,December 1, 2019. The estimated term of the options was based on evaluations of the historical and expected future employee exercise behavior.

 

The future compensation expense to be recognized in earnings before income taxes is $486 and will be recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods.

7. EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the sum of (a) the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and (b) the potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Stock options are the only potentially dilutive securities; and the number of dilutive options is computed using the treasury stock method.

12. CONTINGENCIES

 

Litigation 

 

The Company is subject to a small number of immaterial proceedings, lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, employment, product and other matters. The Company is required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes in these matters as well as potential ranges of probable losses. A determination of the amount of reserves required, if any, for these contingencies is made after careful analysis of each individual issue. The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or changes in approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of such proceedings, lawsuits and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, capital resources, business, consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Company.

 

Environmental Contingencies 

 

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have been named by the Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) or a comparable state agency under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (the “Superfund Act”) or similar state law as potentially responsible parties in connection with alleged releases of hazardous substances at three sites.

 

Under the Superfund Act and similar state laws, all parties who may have contributed any waste to a hazardous waste disposal site or contaminated area identified by the EPA or comparable state agency may be jointly and severally liable for the cost of cleanup. Generally, these sites are locations at which numerous persons disposed of hazardous waste. In the case of the Company’s subsidiaries, generally the waste was removed from their manufacturing facilities and disposed at waste sites by various companies which contracted with the subsidiaries to provide waste disposal services. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries have been accused of or charged with any wrongdoing or illegal acts in connection with any such sites. The Company believes it maintains an effective and comprehensive environmental compliance program.

 


The insurance carriers which provided general liability insurance coverage to the Company and its subsidiaries for the years during which the Company’s subsidiaries’ waste was disposed at these three sites have in the past reimbursed the Company and its subsidiaries for 100% of their legal defense and remediation costs associated with two of these sites.

 

The Company does not record environmental liabilities and related legal expenses for which the Company believes that it and its subsidiaries have general liability insurance coverage for the years during which the Company’s subsidiaries’ waste was disposed at two sites for which certain subsidiaries of the Company have been named as potentially responsible parties. Pursuant to such general liability insurance coverage, three insurance carriers reimburse the Company and its subsidiaries for 100% of the legal defense and remediation costs associated with the two sites.

 

Included in selling, general and administrative expenses are charges for actual expenditures and accruals, based on estimates, for certain environmental matters described above. The Company accrues estimated costs associated with known environmental matters, when such costs can be reasonably estimated and when the outcome appears probable. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of known environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

 


 

13. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Recently Adopted

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASUAccounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a lease (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to classify leases as either finance leases or operating leases and record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with terms greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. An accounting policy election may be made to account for leases with a term of 12 months or less similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. ASU No. 2016-02 supersedes the existing guidance on accounting for leases. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which allows for an optional transition method for the adoption of Topic 842. The two permitted transition methods are now the modified retrospective approach, which applies the new lease requirements at the beginning of the earliest period presented, and the optional transition method, which applies the new lease requirements through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending March 1, 2020 and the interim periods within that year. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of the 2020 fiscal year using the optional transition method. The optional transition method enables the Company to adopt the new standard as of the beginning of the period of adoption and does not require restatement of prior period financial information.  As a result, prior period financial information has not been recastrestated and continues to be reported under the accounting guidance that was effective during those periods. The Company also elected the practical expedients that allow the Company to carry forward the historical lease classification. At adoption, the Company elected the following practical expedients: (1) the “package of practical expedients”, pursuant to which the Company did not need to reassess its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs, (2) creation of an accounting policy for short-term leases resulting in lease payments being recorded as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and (3) to account separately for lease and non-lease components for all leases. The Company has established an inventory of existing leases and implemented a new process of evaluating the classification of each lease. The financial impact of the adoption of the new standard in the 2020 fiscal year increased total assets and total liabilities by approximately $551. The financial impact of the adoption primarily relates to the capitalization of right-of-use assets and recognition of lease liability related to operating leases. The Company has implemented changes to its processes and internal controls, as necessary, to meet the reporting and disclosure requirements of the new standard. See Note 5, Leases, for additional information with respect to the impact of the adoption of the lease accounting guidance and the disclosures required by ASU 2016-02 and the related amendments.


 

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. This ASU allows for reclassification of stranded tax effects resulting from U.S. Tax Reform from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings, but it does not require this reclassification. This ASU is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending March 1, 2020 and the interim periods within that year. The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of its 2020 fiscal year and elected to reclassify the stranded tax effects resulting from U.S. Tax Reform. As a result of that election, the adoption of ASU 2018-02 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 


Recently Issued

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): DisclosureFramework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing the requirement to disclose the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the policy for timing of such transfers. This ASU expands the disclosure requirements for Level 3 fair value measurements, primarily focused on changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income (loss). This ASU is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending February 28, 2021 and for the interim periods within that year. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2018-13 is generally required to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date with the exception of certain amendments, which should be applied prospectively to the most recent interim or annual period presented in the year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
