NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(in thousands, except share amounts)
Overview of the Business
Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (the “Corporation”) manufactures and sells highly engineered, high-performance specialty metal products and customized equipment utilized by industry throughout the world. It operates in two business segments – the Forged and Cast Engineered Products segment and the Air and Liquid Processing segment. This segment presentation is consistent with how the Corporation’s chief operating decision-makerdecision maker evaluates financial performance and makes resource allocation and strategic decisions about the business.
Forged and Cast Engineered Products
The Forged and Cast Engineered Products (“FCEP”) segment produces forged-hardened steel rolls, cast rolls and open-die forged products. Forged-hardened steel rolls are used primarily in cold rolling mills by producers of steel, aluminum and other metals. Cast rolls, which are produced in a variety of iron and steel qualities, are used mainly in hot and cold strip mills, medium/heavy section mills and plate mills. Forged engineered products (“FEP”) are principally sold to customers in the steel distribution market, oil and gas industry and the aluminum and plastic extrusion industries. The segment has operations in the United States, England, Sweden and Slovenia and equity interests in three joint venture companies in China. Collectively, the segment primarily competes with European, Asian, and North American and South American companies in both domestic and foreign markets and distributes a significant portion of its products through sales offices located throughout the world. The primary focus for this segment is continued diversification and development of its FEP portfolio and ongoing operational and efficiency improvements at its facilities, particularly for its European cast roll operations.facilities.
Air and Liquid Processing
The Air and Liquid Processing segment includes Aerofin, Buffalo Air Handling and Buffalo Pumps, all divisions of Air & Liquid Systems Corporation (“Air & Liquid”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. Aerofin produces custom-engineered finned tube heat exchange coils and related heat transfer products for a variety of industries including OEM/commercial, nuclear power generation and industrial manufacturing. Buffalo Air Handling produces large custom-designed air handling systems for institutional (e.g., hospital, university), pharmaceutical and general industrial building markets. Buffalo Pumps manufactures centrifugal pumps for the fossil fueled power generation, marine defense and industrial refrigeration industries. The segment has operations in Virginia and New York with headquarters in Carnegie, Pennsylvania. The segment distributes a significant portion of its products through a common independent group of sales offices located throughout the United States and Canada.
Aerofin’s heat exchanger business is being adversely impacted by lower business activity in the commercial and industrial OEM markets. Buffalo Air Handling’s custom air handling business is experiencing steady demand; however, competitive pricing pressures continue. Buffalo Pumps’ specialty centrifugal pumps business is benefiting from steady demand from the marine defense and fossil fueled power generation markets. The focus for this segment is to grow revenues, increase margins, strengthen engineering and manufacturing capabilities, increase manufacturing productivity, and continue to improve its sales distribution network.
COVID-19
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency caused by a new strain of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”), originating in Wuhan, China, and advised of the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally beyond its point of origin.
In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. In response, many state and local governments required the closure of various businesses. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, however, provided guidance identifying the Corporation’s domestic businesses as critical infrastructure industries, essential to the economic prosperity, security and continuity of the United States, which provides exceptions to certain closures mandated by state and local governments and permits businesses to continue operations during such order. Despite the designation, the Corporation has periodically and temporarily idled certain operations of its FCEP segment and, consequently, furloughed certain of its employees in response to market conditions. It also has experienced, and may continue to experience, customer-requested delays of deliveries or, eventually, potential cancellation of orders. However, it appears that demand has bottomed out during the second quarter of 2020 and volume may return to 2019 levels in the latter part of 2021, assuming no additional mass shutdowns due to COVID-19.
8
On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the “Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.” The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferral of employer sideemployer-side social security payments and contributions to employee benefit plans, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. Similar programs have been offered in certain of the foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, including subsidies and reimbursement of certain employee-related costs. While the Corporation has taken, and intends to continue to take, advantage of various provisions of the CARES Act and the other similar programs offered in foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, where possible, it is unable to determine what impact those provisions may have on its consolidated financial statements in the future.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security guidance has identified the Corporation’s domestic businesses as critical infrastructure industries, essential to the economic prosperity, security and continuity of the United States, which many state and local governments consider provides exceptions to certain closures mandated by such governmental entities and permits the Corporation to continue operations during such order. The Corporation, however, has had to periodically and temporarily idle certain operations of its FCEP segment and, consequently, furlough certain of its employeesTo date, in response to market conditions. It also has experienced, and may continue to experience, customer-requested delays of deliveries or, eventually, potential cancellation of orders. Additionally, while it appears that demand may have bottomed out during the second quarter, when many of the end markets served by the Corporation were shut down, it is uncertain when, or if, demand will return to 2019 levels.
8
To date,pandemic, the Corporation has:
Periodically and temporarily idled certain of its forged and cast roll manufacturing facilities in responsedue to market conditions resulting in unabsorbed costs;
Furloughed employees, particularly inwithin the FCEP segment;
Received approximately $2,400$2,800 in the form of subsidies and reimbursements for a portion of furloughed employee-relatedemployee costs from certain foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates;
Recognized approximately $1,000 of anticipated bad debts and slow-moving inventory reserves in the first quarter of 2020 for customers expected to be more severely impacted by the pandemic;
Deferred employer-side social security payments and contributions to employee benefit plans;
Experienced higher unrealized foreign exchange losses and unrealized losses on rabbi trust investments than a year ago;versus unrealized gains in the prior year; and
Recognized a discrete income tax benefit in the first quarter of 2020 of $3,502, upon enactment of the CARES Act, for the carryback of net operating losses to an earlier period, at a higher tax rate, and to release a portion of the valuation allowance the Corporation had previously established against its deferred income tax assets. The Corporation received the majoritycarryback of thenet operating losses resulted in a refund of income tax refund in the second quartertaxes previously paid of 2020.$3,502.
It is difficult to isolate the impact of the pandemic on the Corporation’s operating results, particularly in relation to the unabsorbed costs resulting from the periodic and temporary idling of certain of the Corporation’s forged and cast roll operations, furloughing of certain of its employees and movementmovements in the global foreign exchange and equity markets. Additionally, the Corporation is uncertain as toof the full effect that the pandemic will have on it for the longer term. The Corporation may experience long-term disruptions to its operations resulting from changes in government policy or guidance; quarantines of employees, customers and suppliers in areas affected by the pandemic; and closures of businesses or manufacturing facilities that are critical to its business or its supply chains. It may also incur higher write-offs of accounts receivables and impairment charges on its asset values, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Management is actively monitoring, and will continue to actively monitor, the pandemic and the potential impact on its operations, financial condition, liquidity, suppliers, industry and workforce.
Restructuring Efforts
During 2019, the Corporation undertook significant measures to return to profitability including:
Completing the sale of its cast roll manufacturing facility in Avonmore, Pennsylvania (“Avonmore”) in September 2019, which eliminated excess capacity and net operating costs from its cost structure of approximately $685 and $4,572 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, when compared to the same periods of the prior year;
Completing the sale of ASW Steel, Inc. (“ASW”), an indirect subsidiary of the Corporation, which had net losses of $9,031 in 2019, through the date of sale, and required significant funding from the Corporation;
Implementing operational and efficiency improvements at its domestic forged roll facilities and commencing similar initiatives at its European cast roll operations in the second half of 2019; and
Completing select reductions in force across the organization which are expected to yield an annualized savings of approximately $4,000.
1. | Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements |
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of JuneSeptember 30, 2020, the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and shareholders’ equity for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, have been prepared by the Corporation without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal and
9
recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, have been made.The results of operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year.
The Corporation sold its indirect subsidiary, ASW Steel Inc. (“ASW”) on September 30, 2019. See Note 2. The operating results of ASW for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, and the cash flows of ASW for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. All footnotes exclude balances and activity of ASW.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In MarchAugust 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 requires entities to provide expanded disclosures about the terms and features of convertible instruments and amends certain guidance in ASC 260 on the computation of EPS for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The guidance becomes effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2024, with early adoption of all amendments in the same period permitted. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time for applying generally accepted accounting principles to modifications of contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another rate that will be discontinued by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The optional guidance is available as of March 12, 2020, through December 31, 2022. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the guidance will have on its financial position, operating results and liquidity.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740). ASU 2019-12 is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes including removing the exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items such as other comprehensive income, the accounting for franchise or similar tax, and requiring an entity reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The guidance becomes effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2021. The
9
Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the guidance will have on its financial position and operating results. It iswill not expected to impact itsaffect the Corporation’s liquidity.
In JuneSeptember 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which adds a new impairment model, known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model, that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes an allowance for its estimate of expected credit losses and applies it to most debt instruments, trade receivables, lease receivables, financial guarantee contracts, and other loan commitments. The CECL model does not have a minimum threshold for recognition of impairment losses and entities will need to measure expected credit losses on assets that have a low risk of loss. The guidance originally became effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2020; however, since the Corporation meets the definition of a Smaller Reporting Company, as defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the effective date was subsequently revised to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the guidance will have on its financial position and operating results. It will not affect the Corporation’s liquidity.
2. | Discontinued Operations and Dispositions |
ASW
On September 30, 2019, the Corporation, Ampco UES Sub, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of the Corporation, and ASW entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Valbruna Canada Ltd., a company organized and existing under the laws of the Province of New Brunswick, Canada (the “Purchaser”). The Purchaser acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of ASW for a cash purchase price of $8,000, subject to normal and customary adjustments including a net working capital adjustment. Net proceeds received at closing, after such normal and customary adjustments including a preliminary net working capital adjustment, approximatedequaled $4,292. Subsequent post-closing adjustments were not significant. In conjunction with the sale, Union Electric Steel Corporation, an indirect subsidiary of the Corporation (“UES”), entered into a long-term supply agreement with ASW for the supply of stainless steel ingots. Purchases to date have been insignificant.
The sale of ASW represented a strategic shift that would have a major favorable impact on the Corporation’s operations and financial results.

Net sales for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, include $883$360 and $4,021,$4,381, respectively, of products sold by ASW to UES with costs of products sold (excluding depreciation and amortization) approximating the same amounts.
Additionally, inAkers National Roll Company
In March 2019, the Board of Directors of the Corporation approved a plan to sell certain assets of Akers National Roll Company (“ANR”), an indirect subsidiary of UES, located in Avonmore, Pennsylvania (the “Avonmore Plant”). In connection with the anticipated sale, the Corporation recognized an impairment charge of $10,082 in the first quarter of 2019, to record the assets at their estimated net realizable value. In May 2019, ANR entered into a definitive agreement to sell the Avonmore Plant, including its real estate and certain personal property, to an affiliate of WHEMCO, Inc. for $3,700. On September 30, 2019, following completion of customer orders in backlog, the transaction closed and all operations at ANR ceased. Although the sale of the Avonmore Plant was expected to help mitigate the excess capacity and high operating costs of the cast roll operations, thereby having a positive impact on the operating and financial results of the Corporation, the anticipated sale of the Avonmore Plant was not considered a strategic shift per the requirements of ASC 205; accordingly, the operating results and cash flows of ANR through the date of sale are included within continuing operations, versus discontinued operations, of the Corporation.

The majority of the assets of the Corporation, except real property including the land and building of Union Electric Steel UK Limited, an indirect subsidiary of the Corporation (“UES-UK”), is pledged as collateral for the Corporation’s revolving credit facility (Note 7). Land and buildings of UES-UK equal to approximately $2,616$2,731 (£2,122) at JuneSeptember 30, 2020, are held as collateral by the trustees of the UES-UK defined benefit pension plan (Note 8). The gross value of finance lease right-of-use assets and the related accumulated amortization as of JuneSeptember 30, 2020, approximated $3,110equaled $3,257 and $908,$1,063, respectively, and at December 31, 2019, approximatedequaled $3,204 and $903, respectively.
At March 31, 2020, the significant change potentially brought about by COVID-19 to macroeconomic conditions and to industry and market conditions in which the FCEP segment operates, was deemed to be a triggering event under ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, causing the Corporation to evaluate whether the property, plant and equipment of the FCEP segment was deemed to be impaired. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2020, the Corporation completed a quantitative analysis of the long-lived assets for this asset group and determined that the assets were not impaired. The Corporation continues to evaluate the uncertainty associated with COVID-19, and, at JuneSeptember 30, 2020, there were no additional triggering events identified for this segment. Additionally, there have been no triggering events for the Air and Liquid Processing segment.

Identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. At March 31, 2020, the uncertainty brought about by COVID-19 was considered a triggering event for the FCEP segment, causing the Corporation to evaluate whether the identifiable intangible assets for this asset group were deemed to be impaired. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2020, the Corporation completed a quantitative analysis and determined that the assets were not impaired. The Corporation continues to evaluate the uncertainty associated with COVID-19, and, at JuneSeptember 30, 2020, there were no additional triggering events identified for this segment. For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, in connection with the anticipated sale of the Avonmore Plant, the Corporation recognized an impairment charge on the intangible assets of ANR of $292.

Included in customer-related liabilities are costs expected to be incurred with respect to product warranties and customer deposits. The Corporation provides a limited warranty on its products, known as assurance type warranties, and may issue credit notes or replace products free of charge for valid claims. A warranty is considered an assurance type warranty if it provides the customer with assurance that the product will function as intended. Historically, warranty claims have been insignificant. The Corporation records a provision for product warranties at the time the underlying sale is recorded. The provision is based on historical experience as a percent of sales adjusted for potential claims when a liability is probable and for known claims.
Changes in the liability for product warranty claims consisted of the following:

Customer deposits represent amounts collected from, or invoiced to, a customer in advance of revenue recognition, and are recorded as other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The liability for customer deposits is reversed when the Corporation satisfies its performance obligations and control of the inventory transfers to the customer, typically when title transfers. Performance obligations related to customer deposits are expected to be satisfied in less than one year.

Revolving Credit and Security Agreement
The Corporation was a party to a five-year Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks. The Credit Agreement provided for initial borrowings not to exceed $100,000, with an option to increase the credit facility by an additional $50,000 at the request of the Corporation and with the approval of the banks. The Credit Agreement included sublimits for letters of credit not to exceed $40,000 and European borrowings not to exceed $15,000. The maturity date for the Credit Agreement was May 20, 2021, and, subject to other terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, would become due on that date. On June 23, 2020, the Corporation and the banks amended the Credit Agreement (collectively, with the Credit Agreement, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) to, among other things, extend the maturity date to May 20, 2022. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for borrowings not to exceed $92,500 with the sublimits for letters of credit and European borrowings continuing. The reduction in the maximum borrowing capacity was, in part, due to the sales of ASW and the Avonmore Plant which eliminated collateral and enabled the reduction.
Availability under the Amended Credit Agreement is based on eligible accounts receivable, inventory and fixed assets. Amounts outstanding under the credit facility bear interest, at the Corporation’s option, at either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging between 2.75% to 3.25% based on the quarterly average excess availability with LIBOR set at a minimum of 0.75% or (ii) the base rate plus an applicable margin ranging between 1.75% to 2.25% based on the quarterly average excess availability. Additionally, the Corporation is required to pay a commitment fee ranging between 0.25% and 0.375% based on the daily unused portion of the credit facility. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2020, the Corporation had no outstanding borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement of $15,773.Agreement. The average interest rate for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, was approximately 4%. Additionally, the Corporation had utilizedutilizes a portion of the credit facility for letters of credit (Note 9). As of JuneSeptember 30, 2020, remaining availability under the Amended Credit Agreement approximated $34,400,$55,800, net of standard availability reserves. Deferred financing fees of approximately $325$329 have been incurred related to the Amended Credit Agreement and are being amortized over the remaining term of the agreement.
Borrowings outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement are collateralized by a first priority perfected security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries (other than real property). Additionally, the Amended Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and limitations, including, but not limited to, investments in certain of its subsidiaries, payment of dividends, incurrence of additional indebtedness, upstream distributions from subsidiaries, and acquisitions and divestures. The Corporation must also maintain a certain level of excess availability. The Corporation was in compliance with the applicable bank covenants as of JuneSeptember 30, 2020.
Sale and Leaseback Financing Obligation
In September 2018, UES completed a sale and leaseback financing transaction for certain of its real property, including its manufacturing facilities in Valparaiso, Indiana and Burgettstown, Pennsylvania, and its manufacturing facility and corporate
13
headquarters located in Carnegie, Pennsylvania (the “Properties”). Simultaneously with the sale, UES entered into a lease agreement pursuant to which UES leased the Properties from the buyer. The lease provides for an initial term of 20 years; however, UES may extend the lease for four successive periods of approximately five years each. If fully extended, the lease would expire in September 2058. UES also has the option to repurchase the Properties, which it may exercise in 2025, for a price equal to the greater of (i) their Fair Market Value, or (ii) 115% of Lessor’s Total Investment for the Facilities, with such terms defined in the lease agreement. The effective interest rate approximated 8% for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020.
IRB DebtIndustrial Revenue Bonds
In July 2020, the Corporation repaid its $4,120 tax-exempt IRBIndustrial Revenue Bond (“IRB”) upon maturity. As of September 30, 2020, the Corporation had the following IRBs outstanding: (i) $7,116 taxable IRB maturing in 2027 and (ii) $2,075 tax-exempt IRB maturing in 2029. The IRBs are remarketed periodically. If the IRBs are not able to be remarketed, although considered remote by the Corporation and its bankers, the bondholders can seek reimbursement immediately from the letters of credit which serve as collateral for the bonds. Accordingly, the IRBs are recorded as current debt.
Promissory Notes
In connection with a March 2016 acquisition, the Corporation issued two three-year promissory notes. Principal and accrued interest of $26,474, in the aggregate, were paid on March 4, 2019.

8. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
In September 2019, in connection with the sale of the Avonmore Plant and the cessation of all manufacturing operations at ANR, the Corporation recognized special termination benefits expense of $3,694 and a curtailment loss of $1,641 associated with shutdown benefits provided by the provisions of the defined benefit plan document and negotiated benefits. Additionally, for the other postretirement benefit plan, the Corporation recognized a curtailment gain of $7,639 resulting principally from the accelerated amortization of prior service credits.
Earlier in 2019, the Corporation amended retiree health benefits for one of its other postretirement benefit plans to a stipend and reimbursement plan resulting in a curtailment gain of $15.
Contributions wereto the Corporation’s employee benefit plans are outlined below. Under the current provisions of the CARES Act, the Corporation has deferred, as follows:of September 30, 2020, $3,794 of its contributions to employee benefit plans, which will be due in January 2021.

The following summarizes the line items affected on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for components reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss. Amounts in parentheses represent credits to net income (loss). There was no income tax benefit or expense associated with the various components of other comprehensive income (loss) for any of the periods due to the Corporation having a valuation allowance recorded against its deferred income tax assets for the jurisdiction where the expense is recognized. Foreign currency translation adjustments exclude the effect of income taxes since earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries are deemed to be reinvested for an indefinite period of time.

| Derivative Instruments |
Certain of the Corporation’s operations are subject to risk from exchange rate fluctuations in connection with sales in foreign currencies. To minimize this risk, foreign currency sales contracts are entered into which are designated as cash flow or fair value hedges. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2020, approximately $17,677$9,582 of anticipated foreign-denominated sales has been hedged, which is covered by fair value contracts settling at various dates through January 2022.
15
Additionally, certain divisions of the Air and Liquid Processing segment are subject to risk from increases in the price of commodities (copper and aluminum) used in the production of inventory. To minimize this risk, futures contracts are entered into which are designated as cash flow hedges. At JuneSeptember 30, 2020, approximately 43%40%, or $1,913,$1,939, of anticipated copper purchases over the next eightseven months and 56%, or $411,$425, of anticipated aluminum purchases over the next six months are hedged.
The Corporation previously entered into foreign currency purchase contracts to manage the volatility associated with Euro-denominated progress payments to be made for certain machinery and equipment. As of December 31, 2010, all contracts had been settled and the underlying fixed assets were placed in service.
No portion of the existing cash flow or fair value hedges is considered to be ineffective, including any ineffectiveness arising from the unlikelihood of an anticipated transaction to occur. Additionally, no amounts have been excluded from assessing the effectiveness of a hedge.
In the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation entered into purchase commitments to cover a portion of its anticipated natural gas usage for one of its subsidiaries. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2020, the Corporation has purchase commitments coveringfor approximately 75%, or $652,$339, of anticipated natural gas usage for 2020 for one of its subsidiaries.remain outstanding. The commitments qualify as normal purchases and, accordingly, are not reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Purchases of natural gas under previously existing commitments approximated $327equaled $313 and $715,$1,028, respectively, for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020. There were no natural gas commitments2020, and $346 for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019.
The Corporation does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and, therefore, holds no derivative instruments for trading purposes.
Gains (losses)Losses on foreign exchange transactions included in other income (expense) approximated $633equaled $58 and $(382)$1,269 for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, respectively, and $(1,098)$1,156 and $(730)$1,999 for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, respectively.

| Stock-Based Compensation |
The Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) authorizes the issuance of up to 1,100,000 shares of the Corporation’s common stock for awards under the Incentive Plan. Awards under the Incentive Plan may include incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares and restricted stock units, performance awards, other stock-based awards or short-term cash incentive awards. If any award is canceled, terminates, expires or lapses for any reason prior to the issuance of shares, or if shares are issued under the Incentive Plan and thereafter are forfeited to the Corporation, the shares subject to such awards and the forfeited shares will not count against the aggregate number of shares available under the Incentive Plan. Shares tendered or withheld to pay the option exercise price or tax withholding will continue to count against the aggregate number of shares of common stock available for grant under the Incentive Plan. Any shares repurchased by the Corporation with cash proceeds from the exercise of options will not be added back to the pool of shares available for grant under the Incentive Plan.
The Incentive Plan may be administered by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee has the authority to determine, within the limits of the express provisions of the Incentive Plan, the individuals to whom the awards will be granted and the nature, amount and terms of such awards.
The Incentive Plan also provides for equity-based awards during any one year to non-employee members of the Board of Directors, based on the grant date fair value, not to exceed $200. The limit does not apply to shares received by a non-employee director at his or her election in lieu of all or a portion of the director’s retainer for board service.
Stock-based compensation expense, including expense associated with equity-based awards granted to non-employee members of the Board of Directors, for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, equaled $113$436 and $239,$421, respectively, and for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, equaled $477$913 and $544,$965, respectively. There was no income tax benefit for any of the periods due to the Corporation having a valuation allowance recorded against its deferred income tax assets for the jurisdiction where the expense is recognized.
The Corporation and its subsidiaries are involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to their businesses and are also subject to asbestos litigation as described below.
Asbestos Litigation
Claims have been asserted alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos-containing components historically used in some products manufactured by predecessors of Air & Liquid (“Asbestos Liability”). Air & Liquid, and in some cases the Corporation, are defendants (among a number of defendants) in cases filed in various state and federal courts.

A substantial majority of the settlement and defense costs reflected in the above table was reported and paid by insurers. Because claims are often filed and can be settled or dismissed in large groups, the amount and timing of settlements, as well as the number of open claims, can fluctuate significantly from period to period.
Asbestos Insurance
The Corporation and Air & Liquid are parties to a series of settlement agreements (“Settlement Agreements”) with insurers that have coverage obligations for Asbestos Liability (the “Settling Insurers”). Under the Settlement Agreements, the Settling Insurers accept financial responsibility, subject to the terms and conditions of the respective agreements, including overall coverage limits, for pending and future claims for Asbestos Liability. The Settlement Agreements encompass the substantial majority of insurance policies that provide coverage for claims for Asbestos Liability.
The Settlement Agreements include acknowledgements that Howden North America, Inc. (“Howden”) is entitled to coverage under policies covering Asbestos Liability for claims arising out of the historical products manufactured or distributed by Buffalo Forge, a former subsidiary of the Corporation (the “Products”), which was acquired by Howden. The Settlement Agreements do not provide for any prioritization on access to the applicable policies or any sublimits of liability as to Howden or the Corporation and Air & Liquid, and, accordingly, Howden may access the coverage afforded by the Settling Insurers for any covered claim arising out of a Product. In general, access by Howden to the coverage afforded by the Settling Insurers for the Products will erode coverage under the Settlement Agreements available to the Corporation and Air & Liquid for Asbestos Liability.
Asbestos Valuations
In 2006, the Corporation retained a nationally recognized expert in the valuation of asbestos liabilities to assist it in estimating the potential liability for pending and unasserted future claims for Asbestos Liability. Based on this analysis, the Corporation recorded a reserve for Asbestos Liability claims pending or projected to be asserted through 2013 as of December 31, 2006. This analysis has been periodically updated since that time. In 2018, the Corporation engaged Nathan Associates Inc. (“Nathan”) to update the liability valuation, and additional reserves were established by the Corporation as of December 31, 2018, for Asbestos Liability claims pending or projected to be asserted through 2052. The methodology used by Nathan in its projection in 2018 of Air & Liquid’s liability for pending and unasserted potential future claims for Asbestos Liability relied upon and included the following factors:
interpretation of a widely accepted forecast of the population likely to have been exposed to asbestos;
epidemiological studies estimating the number of people likely to develop asbestos-related diseases;
analysis of the number of people likely to file an asbestos-related injury claim against the subsidiaries and the Corporation based on such epidemiological data and relevant claims history from January 1, 2016, to August 19, 2018;
an analysis of pending cases, by type of injury claimed and jurisdiction where the claim is filed;
an analysis of claims resolution history from January 1, 2016, to August 19, 2018, to determine the average settlement value of claims, by type of injury claimed and jurisdiction of filing; and
2021
an adjustment for inflation in the future average settlement value of claims, at an annual inflation rate based on the Congressional Budget Office’s forecast of inflation.
• | an adjustment for inflation in the future average settlement value of claims, at an annual inflation rate based on the Congressional Budget Office’s forecast of inflation. |
Using this information, Nathan estimated in 2018 the number of future claims for Asbestos Liability that would be filed through the year 2052, as well as the settlement or indemnity costs that would be incurred to resolve both pending and future unasserted claims through 2052. This methodology has been accepted by numerous courts.
In conjunction with developing the aggregate liability estimate referenced above, the Corporation also developed an estimate of probable insurance recoveries for its Asbestos Liability. In developing the estimate, the Corporation considered Nathan’s projection for settlement or indemnity costs for Asbestos Liability and management’s projection of associated defense costs (based on the current defense to indemnity cost ratio), as well as a number of additional factors. These additional factors included the Settlement Agreements in effect, policy exclusions, policy limits, policy provisions regarding coverage for defense costs, attachment points, prior impairment of policies and gaps in the coverage, policy exhaustions, insolvencies among certain of the insurance carriers, and the nature of the underlying claims for Asbestos Liability asserted against the subsidiaries and the Corporation as reflected in the Corporation’s asbestos claims database, as well as estimated erosion of insurance limits on account of claims against Howden arising out of the Products. In addition to consulting with the Corporation’s outside legal counsel on these insurance matters, the Corporation consulted with a nationally recognized insurance consulting firm it retained to assist the Corporation with certain policy allocation matters that also are among the several factors considered by the Corporation when analyzing potential recoveries from relevant historical insurance for Asbestos Liability. Based upon all of the factors considered by the Corporation, and taking into account the Corporation’s analysis of publicly available information regarding the credit-worthiness of various insurers, the Corporation estimated the probable insurance recoveries for Asbestos Liability and defense costs through 2052.
With the assistance of Nathan, the Corporation extended its estimate of the Asbestos Liability, including the costs of settlement and defense relating to currently pending claims and future claims projected to be filed against the Corporation through the estimated final date by which the Corporation expects to have settled all asbestos-related claims in 2052. The Corporation’s previous estimate was for asbestos claims filed or projected to be filed against the Corporation through 2026. Its ability to reasonably estimate this liability through the expected final date of settlement for all asbestos-related claims of this litigation instead of a ten-year period was based on several factors:
There have been generally favorable developments in the trend of case law which has been a contributing factor in stabilizing the asbestos claims activity and related settlement and defense costs;
There have been significant actions taken by certain state legislatures and courts that have reduced the number and type of claims that can proceed to trial;
The Corporation has coverage-in-place agreements with almost all of its excess insurers which enables the Corporation to project a stable relationship between settlement and defense costs paid by the Corporation and reimbursements from its insurers; and
Annual settlements with respect to groups of cases with certain plaintiff firms have helped to stabilize indemnity payments and defense costs.
Taking these factors into consideration, the Corporation believes there is greater predictability of outcomes from settlements, a reduction in the volatility of defense costs, and it has gained substantial experience as an asbestos defendant. As a result, the Corporation believes the uncertainty in estimating the Asbestos Liability beyond 10 years has been reduced and it now has sufficient information to estimate the Asbestos Liability through 2052, the estimated final date by which the Corporation expects to have settled all asbestos-related claims.
The Corporation’s reserve at December 31, 2018, for the total costs, including defense costs, for Asbestos Liability claims pending or projected to be asserted through 2052, was $227,922. The reserve at JuneSeptember 30, 2020, was $191,412.$185,934. Defense costs are estimated at 80% of settlement costs. The Corporation’s receivable at December 31, 2018, for insurance recoveries attributable to the claims for which the Corporation’s Asbestos Liability reserve has been established, including the portion of incurred defense costs covered by the Settlement Agreements in effect through December 31, 2018, and the probable payments and reimbursements relating to the estimated indemnity and defense costs for pending and unasserted future Asbestos Liability claims, was $152,508 ($125,109121,584 at JuneSeptember 30, 2020).

The insurance receivable recorded by the Corporation does not assume any recovery from insolvent carriers and a substantial majority of the insurance recoveries deemed probable is from insurance companies rated A – (excellent) or better by A.M. Best Corporation. There can be no assurance, however, that there will not be further insolvencies among the relevant insurance carriers, or that the assumed percentage recoveries for certain carriers will prove correct. The difference between insurance recoveries and projected costs is not due to exhaustion of all insurance coverage for Asbestos Liability.
The amounts recorded by the Corporation for Asbestos Liability and insurance receivable rely on assumptions that are based on currently known facts and strategy. The Corporation’s actual expenses or insurance recoveries could be significantly higher or lower than those recorded if assumptions used in the Corporation’s or Nathan’s calculations vary significantly from actual results. Key variables in these assumptions are identified above and include the number and type of new claims to be filed each year, the average cost of disposing of each such new claim, average annual defense costs, compliance by relevant parties with the terms of the Settlement Agreements, and the solvency risk with respect to the relevant insurance carriers. Other factors that may affect the Corporation’s Asbestos Liability and ability to recover under its insurance policies include uncertainties surrounding the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, reforms that may be made by state and federal courts, and the passage of state or federal tort reform legislation.
The Corporation intends to evaluate its estimated Asbestos Liability and related insurance receivable as well as the underlying assumptions on a regular basis to determine whether any adjustments to the estimates are required. Due to the uncertainties surrounding asbestos litigation and insurance, these regular reviews may result in the Corporation incurring future charges; however, the Corporation is currently unable to estimate such future charges. Adjustments, if any, to the Corporation’s estimate of its recorded Asbestos Liability and/or insurance receivable could be material to operating results for the periods in which the adjustments to the liability or receivable are recorded, and to the Corporation’s liquidity and consolidated financial position.
The Corporation is currently performing certain remedial actions in connection with the sale of real estate previously owned and periodically incurs costs to maintain compliance with environmental laws and regulations. Environmental exposures are difficult to assess and estimate for numerous reasons, including lack of reliable data, the multiplicity of possible solutions, the years of remedial and monitoring activity required, and identification of new sites. In the opinion of management, the potential liability for remedial actions and environmental compliance measures of approximately $115$102 at JuneSeptember 30, 2020, is considered adequate based on information known to date.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (the “Corporation”). Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other sections of this quarterly reportQuarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, may include, but are not limited to, statements about operating performance, trends, events that the Corporation expects or anticipates will occur in the future, statements about sales and production levels, restructurings, the impact from global pandemics (including COVID-19), profitability and anticipated expenses, future proceeds from the undertaking and successexercise of any equity offerings,outstanding warrants, and cash outflows. All statements in this document other than statements of historical fact are statements that are, or could be, deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Act and words such as “may,” “intend,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “forecast” and other terms of similar meaning that indicate future events and trends are also generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made, are not guarantees of future performance or expectations, and involve risks and uncertainties. For the Corporation, these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: cyclical demand for products and economic downturns; excess global capacity in the steel industry; increases in commodity prices or shortages of key production materials; consequences of global pandemics (including COVID-19); new trade restrictions and regulatory burdens associated with “Brexit”; inability of the Corporation to successfully restructure its operations; limitations in availability of capital to fund the Corporation’s operations and strategic plan; inability to satisfy the continued listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange;Exchange or NYSE American; potential attacks on information technology infrastructure and other cyber-based business disruptions; and those discussed more fully elsewhere in this report and in documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Corporation, particularly in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in Part I of the Corporation’s latest annual reportAnnual Report on Form 10-K, and Part II of this quarterly reportQuarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Corporation cannot guarantee any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. In addition, there may be events in the future that the Corporation may not be able to predict accurately or control which may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, the Corporation assumes no obligation, and disclaims any obligation, to update forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, events or otherwise.
Overview of the Business
The Corporation manufactures and sells highly engineered, high-performance specialty metal products and customized equipment utilized by industry throughout the world. It operates in two business segments – the Forged and Cast Engineered Products segment and the Air and Liquid Processing segment. This segment presentation is consistent with how the Corporation’s chief operating decision-makerdecision maker evaluates financial performance and makes resource allocation and strategic decisions about the business.
Forged and Cast Engineered Products
The Forged and Cast Engineered Products (“FCEP”) segment produces forged-hardened steel rolls, cast rolls and open-die forged products. Forged-hardened steel rolls are used primarily in cold rolling mills by producers of steel, aluminum and other metals. Cast rolls, which are produced in a variety of iron and steel qualities, are used mainly in hot and cold strip mills, medium/heavy section mills and plate mills. Forged engineered products (“FEP”) are principally sold to customers in the steel distribution market, oil and gas industry and the aluminum and plastic extrusion industries. The segment has operations in the United States, England, Sweden and Slovenia and equity interests in three joint venture companies in China. Collectively, the segment primarily competes with European, Asian, and North American and South American companies in both domestic and foreign markets and distributes a significant portion of its products through sales offices located throughout the world. The primary focus for this segment is continued diversification and development of its FEP portfolio and ongoing operational and efficiency improvements at its facilities, particularly for its European cast roll operations.facilities.
The Air and Liquid Processing segment includes Aerofin, Buffalo Air Handling and Buffalo Pumps, all divisions of Air & Liquid Systems Corporation (“Air & Liquid”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. Aerofin produces custom-engineered finned tube heat exchange coils and related heat transfer products for a variety of industries including OEM/commercial, nuclear power generation and industrial manufacturing. Buffalo Air Handling produces large custom-designed air handling systems for institutional (e.g., hospital, university), pharmaceutical and general industrial building markets. Buffalo Pumps manufactures centrifugal pumps for the fossil fueled power generation, marine defense and industrial refrigeration industries. The segment has operations in Virginia and New York with headquarters in Carnegie, Pennsylvania. The segment distributes a significant portion of its products through a common independent group of sales offices located throughout the United States and Canada.

The Corporation continues to focus on improving its financial strength and reducing indebtedness. In July 2020, the Corporation repaid its $4,120 Industrial Revenue Bond upon maturity. In September 2020, the Corporation completed an equity rights offering, issuing 5,507,889 shares of its common stock and 12,339,256 Series A warrants to existing shareholders for total gross proceeds of $19,279. Additional proceeds may be received from the future exercise of the Series A warrants. Each warrant provides the right to purchase 0.4464 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.5668, or $5.75 per whole share of common stock, and expires on August 1, 2025. A majority of the proceeds from the equity rights offering was used to repay remaining borrowings outstanding under the Corporation’s revolving credit facility providing availability for future capital expenditures, which are necessary to accelerate restructuring efforts and further improve the long-term cost structure and profitability of the Corporation, and general corporate purposes and obligations. At September 30, 2020, the Corporation reduced its debt to $32,598, a decrease of $38,259 from the balance as of December 31, 2019, of $70,857.
COVID-19
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency caused by a new strain of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”), originating in Wuhan, China, and advised of the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally beyond its point of origin.
In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. In response, many state and local governments required the closure of various businesses. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, however, provided guidance has identifiedidentifying the Corporation’s domestic businesses as critical infrastructure industries, essential to the economic prosperity, security and continuity of the United States, which many state and local governments consider provides exceptions to certain closures mandated by such governmental entitiesstate and local governments and permits the Corporationbusinesses to continue operations during such order. TheDespite the designation, the Corporation however, has had to periodically and temporarily idleidled certain operations of its FCEP segment and, consequently, furloughfurloughed certain of its employees in response to market conditions. It also has experienced, and may continue to experience, customer-requested delays of deliveries or, eventually, potential cancellation of orders. Additionally, whileHowever, it appears that demand may havehas bottomed out during the second quarter when many of the end markets served by the Corporation were shut down, it is uncertain when, or if, demand will2020 and volume may return to 2019 levels.levels in the latter part of 2021, assuming no additional mass shutdowns due to COVID-19.
On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the “Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.” The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferral of employer-side social security payments and contributions to employee benefit plans, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. Similar programs have been offered in certain of the foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, including subsidies and reimbursement of certain employee-related costs. While the Corporation has taken, and intends to continue to take, advantage of various provisions of the CARES Act and other similar programs offered in foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, where possible, it is unable to determine what impact those provisions may have on its consolidated financial statements in the future.
To date, in response to the pandemic, the Corporation has:
Periodically and temporarily idled certain of its forged and cast roll manufacturing facilities due to market conditions resulting in unabsorbed costs;
Furloughed employees, particularly inwithin the FCEP segment;
Received approximately $2,400$2,800 in the form of subsidies and reimbursements for a portion of furloughed employee-relatedemployee costs from certain foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates;
Recognized approximately $1,000 of anticipated bad debts and slow-moving inventory reserves in the first quarter of 2020 for customers expected to be more severely impacted by the pandemic;
• | Recognized approximately $1,000 of anticipated bad debts and slow-moving inventory reserves in the first quarter of 2020 for customers expected to be more severely impacted by the pandemic; |
Deferred employer-side social security payments and contributions to employee benefit plans;
Experienced higher unrealized foreign exchange losses and unrealized losses on rabbi trust investments than a year ago;versus unrealized gains in the prior year; and
Recognized a discrete income tax benefit in the first quarter of 2020 of $3,502, upon enactment of the CARES Act, for the carryback of net operating losses to an earlier period, at a higher tax rate, and to release a portion of the valuation allowance the Corporation had previously established against its deferred income tax assets. The Corporation received the majoritycarryback of thenet operating losses resulted in a refund of income tax refund in the second quartertaxes previously paid of 2020.$3,502.
It is difficult to isolate the impact of the pandemic on the Corporation’s operating results, particularly in relation to the unabsorbed costs resulting from the periodic and temporary idling of certain of the Corporation’s forged and cast roll operations, furloughing of certain of its employees and movementmovements in the global foreign exchange and equity markets. Additionally, the Corporation is uncertain as toof the full effect that the pandemic will have on it for the longer term. The Corporation may experience long-term disruptions to its
26
operations resulting from changes in government policy or guidance; quarantines of employees, customers and suppliers in areas affected by the pandemic; and closures of businesses or manufacturing facilities that are critical to its business or its supply chains. It may also incur higher write-offs of accounts receivables and impairment charges on its asset values, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Management is actively monitoring, and will continue to actively monitor, the pandemic and the potential impact on its operations, financial condition, liquidity, suppliers, industry and workforce.
Restructuring Efforts
During 2019, the Corporation undertook significant measures to return to profitability including:
Completing the sale of its cast roll manufacturing facility in Avonmore, Pennsylvania (“Avonmore”) in September 2019, which eliminated excess capacity and net operating costs from its cost structure of approximately $1,685 and $3,887, respectively, (the “Excess Costs of Avonmore”) for the three and six ended June 30, 2020, when compared to the same periods of the prior year.

Net sales were $74,778 equaled $75,674 and $102,519$90,872 for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, respectively, and $165,841$241,515 and $210,013$300,885 for the sixnine months then ended. The decrease for each of the periods is principally attributable to a lower volume of shipments for the FCEP segment, due to deferral of deliveries by customers in the flat-rolled steel and aluminum markets, and reduced demand for FEP. Changes in exchange rates used to translate netA discussion of sales offor the Corporation’s foreign subsidiaries into the U.S. dollar reduced net sales by approximately $700 and $2,100 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, when compared to the same periods of the prior year. two segments is included below.

Backlog approximated $258,101 equaled $259,785 at JuneSeptember 30, 2020, versus $321,331 as of December 31, 2019, and $355,485$335,119 at JuneSeptember 30, 2019. Backlog represents the accumulation of firm orders on hand which: (i) are supported by evidence of a contractual arrangement, (ii) include a fixed and determinable sales price, (iii) have collectability that is reasonably assured, and (iv) as of September 30, 2020, generally are expected to ship within two years from the backlog reporting date. Prior to September 30, 2020, longer-term Navy orders for the Air and Liquid Processing segment were excluded from backlog. A discussion of sales and backlog for the Corporation’s two segments is included below.
Costs of products sold, excluding depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of net sales was 80.2%78.6% and 82.5%83.1% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, and 78.5% and 83.2% for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, respectively. The improvement is principally associated with the FCEP segment which benefited from improved pricing and product mix,the elimination of the Excess Costs of Avonmore, lower raw material costs and, for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, improved pricing and product mix and receipt of business interruption insurance proceeds of $769 for equipment outages that occurred in 2018 (the “Proceeds from Business Interruption Insurance Claim”). The improvement was partially offset by a lower volume of shipments of mill rolls and FEP and net unabsorbed costs associated with the periodic and temporary idling of certain of the Corporation’s forged and cast roll manufacturing facilities caused by the pandemic. For the Air &and Liquid Processing segment, costs of products sold, excluding depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of net sales werewas comparable between the periods.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased by $3,730 and $5,785$920 for the three and six months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, when compared to the same periodsperiod of the prior year. The decrease isyear, principally due to lower commissions and elimination of costs at the Avonmore Plant. Selling and administrative expenses decreased by $6,705 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, when compared to the same period of the prior year, principally due to:
25
Lower bad debt expense of approximately $1,400 and $900 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. In the second quarter of 2019, the Corporation recognized$1,086 principally due to bad debt expense of $1,366 for a cast roll customer who filed for bankruptcy in 2019 (the “Bad Debt Expense”). By comparison, in the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation recognized offset by expense of $490 principally due toin the current year for anticipated write-offs for customers in the oil and gas industry. industry;
Lower professional fees and employee severance costs of approximately $485 and $1,406 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively,$1,989 associated with the Corporation’s restructuring efforts, which began in the first quarter of 2019, and ongoing cost containment initiatives;
Lower employee-related costs, in part, due to completed reduction-in-force actions completed in 2019;
Lower commissions of approximately $141 and $673 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively,$1,658 primarily due to the lower volume of FEP sales;
The sale of Avonmore in September 2019, whose selling and administrative costs approximated $107 and $227 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively; and
Lower foreign exchange rates used to translate selling and administrative costsElimination of the Corporation’s foreign subsidiaries into the U.S. dollar, which reduced selling and administrative expenses byat the Avonmore Plant of approximately $145 and $282 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.$942.
Depreciation and amortization decreased for the sixthree months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, were comparable. Depreciation and amortization for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, when compared to the same period of the prior year, decreased due to the write-down of the property, plant and equipment of the Avonmore Plant to its estimated net realizable value at March 31, 2019, which eliminated future depreciation expense for Avonmore.the Avonmore Plant.
Impairment charge recognized in the first quarter of 2019 of $10,082 represents the write-down of certain assets of the Avonmore Plant to their estimated net realizable value (the “Impairment Charge”).

Operating results for the current year periods, when compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, also fluctuated due to:
Unabsorbed costs largely due to the periodic and temporary idling of certain facilities and furloughing employees caused by the pandemic, a portion of which was offset by subsidies and reimbursements from certain foreign jurisdictions, resulting in a net negative impact on earnings of approximately $9,600$1,000 and $8,400,$9,400 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively; and
26

The decrease in backlog from earlier periods is principally due to lower backlog for forged and cast rolls as a result of customers postponing order placement given the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic. A declineAn overall increase in foreign exchange rates used to translate the backlog of the Corporation’s foreign subsidiaries into the U.S. dollar and lower backlog for FEP due to lower demand also impacted the quarter-end backlog when compared to the other periods. At JuneSeptember 30, 2020, approximatelymore than half of the backlog is expected to ship after 2020; however, as a result of the pandemic, customers could defer deliveries, which may result in a larger percentage of backlog being shipped after 2020.

Partial recoveryIn the third quarter of foreign exchange rates2020, the dividend equaled $1,173 versus $1,364 received in the second quarter of 2019.
Interest expense equaled $1,018 and equity markets during the quarter, following pandemic-related market disruptions at the end of the first quarter, resulted in unrealized gains and contributed to the improvement period over period. On a year-to-date basis, other income (expense) – net approximated $(1,081) and $1,127$1,541 for the sixthree months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, and $3,228 and $4,035 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 2019, respectively.

The remaining fluctuation between the periods is principally due to lower foreign exchange losses for the current year periods, and for the nine-month periods, offset by unrealized losses on rabbi trust assetsinvestments in the current year versus unrealized gains in the prior year along with the prior year benefiting from the $1,400 of dividend income.year.
Income tax (provision) benefit (provision) for each of the periods includes income taxes associated with the Corporation’s profitable operations. An income tax benefit is not able to be recognized on losses of certain of the Corporation’s entities since it is “more likely than not” the asset will not be realized. The income tax benefit recorded for the first sixnine months of 2020 includes an income tax benefit of approximately $3,502 due to the CARES Act, which enabled the Corporation to carry back net operating losses to an earlier period, at a higher tax rate, and to release a portion of the valuation allowance it had previously established against its deferred income tax assets.
Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, represents the net loss associated with ASW.
Net income attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh and income per common share for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, include an income tax benefit of approximately $3,502, due to the enactment of the CARES Act, and the Proceeds from Business Interruption Insurance Claim, which had a combined positive impact on income per common share of $0.34.$0.33. Net loss attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh and loss per common share for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, include the Restructuring-Related Costs, the Excess Costs of Avonmore, the Bad Debt Expense, net-of tax losses from discontinued operations, and, for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, the Impairment Charge and the Bad Debt Expense, which had a combined negative impact on loss per common share of $0.53$0.37 and $1.76,$2.12, respectively.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Corporation presents non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) income from continuing operations, which is calculated as income (loss) income from continuing operations, excluding the Impairment Charge, the Restructuring-Related Costs, the Excess Costs of Avonmore, the Bad Debt Expense, and the Proceeds from Business Interruption Insurance Claim. This non-GAAP financial measure is not based on any
27
standardized methodology prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies.
30
The Corporation has presented non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) income from continuing operations because it is a key measure used by the Corporation’s management and Board of Directors to understand and evaluate the Corporation’s operating performance and to develop operational goals for managing its business. This non-GAAP financial measure excludes significant charges or credits, that are one-time charges or credits, unrelated to the Corporation’s ongoing results of operations or beyond its control. Additionally, a portion of the incentive and compensation arrangements for certain employees is based on the Corporation’s business performance. The Corporation believes this non-GAAP financial measure helps identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the items that it excludes from the adjusted income (loss) income from continuing operations. In particular, the Corporation believes that the exclusion of the Impairment Charge, the Restructuring-Related Costs, the Excess Costs of Avonmore which are not expected to continue following the sale of the Avonmore Plant, the Bad Debt Expense, and the Proceeds from Business Interruption Insurance Claim can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the Corporation’s core business performance. Accordingly, the Corporation believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to management, shareholders and investors, and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by the Corporation’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.
Adjusted income (loss) income from continuing operations is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations related to the use of adjusted income (loss) income from continuing operations rather than income (loss) income from continuing operations, which is the nearest GAAP equivalent. Among other things, the Excess Costs of Avonmore necessarily reflects judgments made by management in allocating manufacturing and operating costs between the Avonmore Plant and the Corporation’s other operations and in anticipating how it will conduct business following the sale of Avonmore.the Avonmore Plant. Additionally, there can be no assurance that additional charges similar to the Impairment Charge, the Restructuring-Related Costs, and the Bad Debt Expense or benefits similar to the Proceeds from Business Interruption Insurance Claim will not occur in future periods.
The adjustments reflected in adjusted income (loss) income from continuing operations are pre-tax. There is no tax impact associated with these adjustments due to the Corporation having a valuation allowance recorded against its deferred income tax assets for the jurisdictions where the expenses or income are recognized.
The following is a reconciliation of income (loss) income from continuing operations to non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) income from continuing operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, respectively:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities for continuing operations for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, approximated $31,435equaled $33,944 and $(8,165)$(8,194), respectively. The significant improvement between the periods is principally due to a lower investment in trade working capital and improved operating results. Although the Corporation recorded an impairment charge in 2019 associated with the anticipated sale of the Avonmore plant,Plant, the charge was a non-cash charge and, accordingly, did not impact its net cash flows used in operating activities.
The decrease in accounts receivable at JuneSeptember 30, 2020, from December 31, 2019, is principally due to lower sales for the FCEP segment and improved collections. The decrease in inventories and accounts payable at JuneSeptember 30, 2020, from year-end 2019, is attributable to a lower volume of business activity primarily resulting from the economic slowdown caused by the pandemic. Deferred employer-side social security payments and contributions to employee benefit plans equaled $650$1,424 and $448,$3,794, respectively, through JuneSeptember 30, 2020.
28
Under the current provisions of the CARES Act, deferred social security payments will be due equally in December 2021 and December 2022, and deferred contributions to employee benefit plans will be due in January 2021.
31
Net cash flows used in(used in) provided by investing activities for continuing operations approximated $3,200equaled $(5,782) and $3,639$1,026 for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, respectively,respectively. Proceeds from the sale of ASW of $4,292 and include capital expenditures primarilythe Avonmore Plant of $3,700 are included in the net cash flows provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Capital expenditures for each of the periods were comparable and related primarily to the FCEP segment. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2020, commitments for future capital expenditures approximated $5,000, which isare expected to be spent over the next 12 – 18 months.
Net cash flows used in financing activities for continuing operations approximated $19,337equaled $17,428 and $1,245$2,050 for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020, and 2019, and fluctuated as a result of borrowing activity.respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2020,current year period, the Corporation repaid all borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility primarily as a resultfacility. A portion of a lower investmentthe repayment was from proceeds from the equity rights offering completed in trade working capital and improved operating results.September 2020. Net proceeds from the equity rights offering equaled $18,150 (total gross proceeds of $19,279 less issuance costs of $1,129). In the prior year period,2019, the Corporation repaid promissory notes (and interest), equaling $26,474 with additional borrowings under its revolving credit facility. Proceeds from the sale of ASW and the Avonmore Plant in 2019 of $7,992 were used to repay a portion of the borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
Net cash flows used in discontinued operations for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, represent the cash flows of ASW which was sold in September 2019.
As a result of the above, cash and cash equivalents increased by $8,914 in$11,320 during the first three quarters of 2020 and ended the period at $15,874$18,280 in comparison to $6,960 at December 31, 2019. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2020, the majority of the Corporation’s cash and cash equivalents is held by the Corporation’s foreign operations. Domestic customer remittances are used to pay down borrowings under the Corporation’s revolving credit facility daily, resulting in minimal cash maintained by the Corporation’s domestic operations. Cash held by the Corporation’s foreign operations is considered to be permanently reinvested; accordingly, a provision for estimated local and withholding tax has not been made. If the Corporation were to remit any foreign earnings to it or any of its U.S. entities, the estimated tax impact would be insignificant.
While the maturity date of the Corporation’sThe revolving credit facility was May 20, 2021, and, subject to the other terms and conditions of the facility, would have become due on that date, in the second quarter of 2020, the Corporation extended the maturity date for the facility to May 20, 2022. See further information in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The revolving credit agreement limits the amount of distributions made to upstream entities; however, the Corporation has not historically relied on or depended on distributions from the Corporation’s subsidiaries, and it is not expected to bedo so in the future.
Funds on hand, funds generated from future operations and availability under the Corporation’s revolving credit facility are expected to be sufficient to finance the Corporation’s operational and capital expenditure requirements. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2020, remaining availability under the revolving credit facility approximated $34,400,$55,800, net of standard availability reserves. In addition, on June 26, 2020, the Corporation filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a proposed rights offering in which it plans to distribute to its shareholders non-transferable subscript rights to purchase up to $20,000 of units. Each unit will consist of shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock of the Corporation. The Corporation intends to use the net proceeds of the rights offering to accelerate its restructuring efforts, improve overall liquidity and reduce indebtedness. Any remaining proceeds will be used for other general corporate purposes. The registration statement is not yet effective.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) | Disclosure controls and procedures. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report was carried out under the supervision, and with the participation, of management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, the Corporation’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of |

PARTPART II – OTHER INFORMATION
AMPCO-PITTSBURGH CORPORATION
The information contained in Note 1516 to the condensed consolidated financial statements (Litigation) is incorporated herein by reference.
The risk factor set forth below updates the risk factors in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and could materially affect the Corporation’s business, financial position or results of operations.
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused disruptions in manufacturing industries. It
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased economic and demand uncertainty and could cause a sustained global recession. It has impacted, and may continue to have a prolonged and severe impact on, the Corporation’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. While the U.S. Department of Homeland Security guidance has identified the Corporation’s domestic businesses as critical infrastructure industries, essential to the economic prosperity, security and continuity of the United States, the Corporation has periodically and temporarily idled certain of its operations of its FCEP segment and, consequently, furloughed certain of its employees in response to market conditions. Additionally, the FCEP segment has experienced, and may continue to experience, customer-requested delays of deliveries or, eventually, potential cancellation of orders and significant reductions in demand. The Corporation also may experience long-term disruptions to its operations resulting from changes in government policy or guidance; quarantines of employees, customers and suppliers in areas affected by the pandemic; and closures of businesses or manufacturing facilities that are critical to its business or its supply chains. It may also incur higher write-offs of accounts receivables and impairment charges on its asset values, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.
The COVID-19 pandemic could also adversely affect the Corporation’s liquidity and ability to access the capital markets. Additionally, government stimulus programs available to the Corporation, its customers, or its suppliers, if any, may prove to be ineffective. Furthermore, in the event that the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic causes the Corporation to be unable to maintain a certain level of excess availability under its revolving credit facility, the availability of funds to the Corporation may become limited, or the Corporation may be required to renegotiate the facility on less favorable terms. If the Corporation is unable to access additional credit at the levels it requires, or the cost of credit is greater than expected, it could materially adversely affect the Corporation’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Although the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting has not been impacted to date, the COVID-19 pandemic could negatively affect it in the future if the Corporation’s workforce is required to work from home on a longer term or permanent basis thereby requiring new processes, procedures, and controls to respond to changes in the Corporation’s business environment. The Corporation may be susceptible to increased litigation related to, among other things, the financial impacts of the pandemic on its business, its ability to meet contractual obligations due to the pandemic, employment practices or policies adopted during the health crisis, or litigation related to individuals contracting COVID-19 as result of alleged exposures on the Corporation’s premises.
While the Corporation has been impacted by the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic – see Part I, Item 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will affect the Corporation’s operations, and the industries in which it operates, remains highly uncertain and will ultimately depend on future developments which cannot be predicted at this time, including, but not limited to, the duration, severity, speed and scope of the pandemic, the length of time required for demand to return and normal economic and operating conditions to resume. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may also have the effect of exacerbating many of the other risks described in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
If the Corporation fails to maintain an effective system of internal controls, it may not be able to accurately determine its financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, the shareholders could lose confidence in the Corporation’s financial results, which could harm the business and the value of the Corporation’s securities.
Effective internal controls are necessary for the Corporation to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires the Corporation to evaluate and report on its internal controls over financial reporting. The Corporation’s internal controls and financial reporting are not subject to attestation
34
by its independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the exemption provided to issuers that are not “large accelerated filers” or “accelerated filers” under the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010. The Corporation cannot be certain that it will be successful in maintaining adequate internal controls over its financial reporting and financial processes in the future. Because of the Corporation’s reliance on key personnel, the COVID-19 pandemic elevates this risk. The Corporation may in the future discover areas of its internal controls that need improvement. Furthermore, to the extent its business grows, the Corporation’s internal controls may become more complex, and the Corporation would require significantly more resources to ensure its internal controls remain effective. If the Corporation or its independent auditors discover a material weakness, the disclosure of that fact, even if quickly remediated, could reduce the market value of the Corporation’s securities. Additionally, the existence of any material weakness or significant deficiency would require management to devote significant time and incur significant expense to remediate any such material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and management may not be able to remediate any such material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in a timely manner.
Holders of Series A warrants will have no rights as holders of common stock until they exercise their Series A warrants and acquire common stock.
Until holders of the Corporation’s Series A warrants acquire shares of common stock upon exercise of such Series A warrants, they will have no rights with respect to the shares of common stock underlying such Series A warrants. Upon exercise of the Series A warrants, the holders thereof will be entitled to exercise the rights of holders of common stock only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the warrant exercise date.
The Corporation may be unable to maintain the listing of the Series A warrants on NYSE American, which would significantly limit the ability of the Corporation’s warrant holders to resell their Series A warrants.
Although the Series A warrants trade on the NYSE American, the Corporation may not be able to maintain the applicable listing standards for reasons that are outside of its control. Among other requirements, in order for the Series A warrants to be listed on NYSE American, there must be an aggregate of at least 50,000 Series A warrants. Satisfaction of NYSE American’s listing requirements therefore depends upon the extent to which warrant holders elect to exercise their Series A warrants. The Corporation cannot provide assurance that it will continue to meet these, or other, listing standards of NYSE American with respect to the Series A warrants.
Even if a market for the Series A warrants develops, the price of the Series A warrants may fluctuate, and liquidity may be limited. Holders of Series A warrants may be unable to resell their Series A warrants at a favorable price, or at all.
The market price of common stock may never exceed the exercise price of the Series A warrants.
The Series A warrants will be exercisable commencing on their date of issuance and expiring on August 1, 2025. The market price of common stock may never exceed the exercise price of the Series A warrants prior to their date of expiration. Any Series A warrants not exercised by their date of expiration will expire without residual value to holders.
The Corporation has not declared dividends since mid-2017 and does not expect to declare dividends in the future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of the Corporation’s common stock.
The Corporation has not declared a cash dividend on its common stock since mid-2017 and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. The declaration and payment of dividends on its common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting the Corporation at such time as its board of directors may consider relevant. If the Corporation does not pay dividends, its common stock may be less valuable because a return on investment in its securities will only occur if the Corporation’s stock price appreciates.
Because the Series A warrants are executory contracts, they may have no value in a bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding.
In the event a bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding is commenced by or against the Corporation, a bankruptcy court may hold that any then-unexercised Series A warrants are executory contracts subject to rejection by the Corporation with the approval of a bankruptcy court. As a result, even if the Corporation has sufficient funds, holders may not be entitled to receive any consideration for their Series A warrants or may receive an amount less than they would be entitled to if they had exercised their Series A warrants prior to the commencement of any such bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding.
The Corporation’s By-laws designate the state and federal courts sitting in the judicial district of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania embracing the county in which its principal executive office is located as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by its shareholders, which could discourage lawsuits against the Corporation and its directors and officers.
35
The Corporation’s By-laws provide that, unless it otherwise consents in writing, the state and federal courts sitting in the judicial district of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania embracing the county in which its principal executive office is located will be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed to the Corporation or its shareholders by any director or officer, officer or other employee of its, (c) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or against any of its directors, officers or other employees arising pursuant to any provision of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988 (or the PBCL) or its Articles of Incorporation or By-laws, (d) any action seeking to interpret, apply, enforce, or determine the validity of its Article of Incorporation or By-laws, or (e) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any director or officer or other employee of its governed by the internal affairs doctrine. This exclusive forum provision does not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. This exclusive forum provision may limit the ability of its shareholders to bring a claim in a judicial forum that such shareholders find favorable for disputes with the Corporation or its directors or officers, which may discourage such lawsuits against the Corporation and its directors and officers. Alternatively, if a court outside of Pennsylvania were to find this exclusive forum provision inapplicable to, or unenforceable in respect of, one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings described above, the Corporation may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect its business, results of operations and financial condition.
