VIRCO MFG. CORPORATION
Notes to unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
October 31, 20212022
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 20212022 (“Form 10-K”).  In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months and nine months ended October 31, 20212022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2022.2023. The balance sheet at January 31, 20212022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. All references to the “Company” refer to Virco Mfg. Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Principles of Consolidation and Reclassification

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Virco Mfg. Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The reclassification of certain prior year sales allowances of approximately $480,000 and $869,000 was made for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020, respectively. The amounts of reclassification representing the replacement of damaged goods, previously presented in net sales, is presented in costs of goods sold in the accompanying prior period statements of income or operations, which conform to current period presentation.

Liquidity

Management evaluated whether there are any conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next 12 months after the interim financial statements are issued. The Company has experienced an overall decline in net sales and net income for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2021. For the first nine-months of fiscal 2022 the Company experienced an increase in shipments and material increase in orders as schools received funding to support a return to classroom instruction. However, as a result of severe supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, the Company has experienced an increase in raw material prices and an increase in backlog which negatively impacted the Company’s net income for the nine months ended October 31, 2021.

As a result the Company was in violation of its financial covenants under the Restated Credit Agreement as of October 31, 2021. On December 7, 2021, the Company successfully negotiated and entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Restated Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”) with PNC Bank. Amendment No. 1 provided a limited waiver of the Company’s violation of the covenant to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.10 to 1.00 for the four fiscal quarter periods ended October 31, 2021, and amended the fixed charge coverage ratio as follows: (i) 1.00 to 1.00 for each of the consecutive four fiscal quarter periods of Borrowers ending January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, and (ii) 1.10 to 1.00 for each consecutive four fiscal quarter periods of Borrowers ending thereafter. In connection with Amendment No. 1, the Company also agreed to pay to PNC Bank a non-refundable fee of $50,000 (see Note 7).

The Company expects the impact of supply chain constraints and COVID-19 to continue to be a challenge for the foreseeable future and believes the economy will be adversely impacted for an indeterminate period, including the demand for its products and supply of materials and labor required to manufacture products. The extent of the impact will depend on numerous factors that are unknown, uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. Based on the Company’s current projections, including COVID-19 related costs and raw material costs, and its ability to introduce price increases and manage certain controllable expenditures, management believes it will maintain compliance with the financial covenants for the next 12 months after the interim financial statements are issued and that the Company’s existing cash, projected operating cash flows and available credit facilities, described in
Note 7, are adequate to meet its operating needs, liabilities and commitments over the next 12 months from the issuance of the interim financial statements.
Note 2. Seasonality and Management Use of Estimates
The market for educational furniture is marked by extreme seasonality, with approximately 50% of the Company’s total sales typically occurring from June to August each year, the Company’s peak season. Hence, the Company typically builds and
12


carries significant amounts of inventory during and in anticipation of this peak summer season to facilitate the rapid delivery requirements of customers in the educational market. This requires a large up-front investment in inventory, labor, storage and related costs as inventory is built in anticipation of peak sales during the summer months. As the capital required for this build-up generally exceeds cash available from operations, the Company has generally relied on third-party bank financing to meet cash flow requirements during the build-up period immediately preceding the peak season. In addition, the Company typically is faced with a large balance ofan overall higher accounts receivable balance during the peak season. This occurs for two primary reasons. First, accounts receivable balances typically increase during the peak season as shipments of products increase. Second, many customers during this period are educational institutions and government entities, which tend to pay accounts receivable slower than commercial customers. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021,2022, management believes that the traditional peak season has been and will continue to be impacted by economic conditions related to supply chain disruption and COVID 19.19, although not as severely as in the prior year. The Company has experienced difficulty sourcing desired levels of temporary labor and permanent hires in the manufacturing and distribution facilities. In addition, the Company is experiencingcontinues to experience supply chain disruptions for raw materials. These conditions have adversely impacted sales volume forIn addition, the monthsCompany's customers are experiencing supply chain disruption impacting the completion of June, July, August,new school construction and September. In October, sales increased compared to the prior year. The Company anticipates that a larger portion of its annual sales will occur in fourth quarter of the current fiscal year compared to prior years.renovation.

The Company’s working capital requirements during and in anticipation of the peak summer season require management to make estimates and judgments that affect assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to market demand, labor costs and stocking inventory. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, valuation of inventory; deferred tax assets and liabilities; useful lives of property, plant and equipment; liabilities under pension, warranty self-insurance and environmental claims;self-insurance; and the accounts receivable allowance for doubtful accounts. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making assumptions and estimates, events and changes in circumstances arising after October 31, 2021,2022, including those resulting from the continuing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain disruption, may result in actual outcomes that differ from those contemplated by our assumptions and estimates.

Note 3. New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Updates

12


In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology for measuring and recognizing credit losses with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates.  The adoption date, as modified by ASU 2019-10, will be for the fiscal year endingbeginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the standard will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other recently issued accounting updates are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Revenue Recognition

The Company manufactures, markets and distributes a wide variety of school and office furniture to wholesalers, distributors, educational institutions and governmental entities. Revenue is recorded for promised goods or services when control is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The Company's sales generally involve a single performance obligation to deliver goods pursuant to customer purchase orders.  Prices for our products are based on published price lists and customer agreements. The Company has determined that the performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time when the Company completes delivery per the customer contract. The majority of sales are free on board ("FOB") destination where the destination is specified per the customer contract and may include delivering the furniture into the classroom, school site or warehouse. Sales of furniture that are sold FOB factory are typically made to resellers of our product who in turn provide logistics to the ultimate customer. Once a product has been delivered per the shipping terms, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. The Company considers control to have transferred upon shipment or delivery in accordance with shipping terms because the Company has a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, the Company has transferred physical possession of the asset, and the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset.

13


Sales are recorded net of discounts, sales incentives and rebates, sales taxes and estimated returns and allowances. The Company offers sales incentives and discounts through various regional and national programs to our customers. These programs include product rebates, product returns allowances and trade promotions. Variable consideration for these programs is estimated in the transaction price at contract inception based on current sales levels and historical experience using the expected value method, subject to constraint.

WeThe Company generates revenue primarily by manufacturing and distributing products through resellers and direct-to-customers. Control transfers to both resellers and direct customers at a point in time when the delivery process is complete as determined by the corresponding shipping terms. Therefore, we do not consider our revenue generated through direct-to-customers and resellersthem to be meaningfully different revenue streams given similarities in the nature of the products, performance obligation and distribution processes. Sales are predominately in the United States and to a similar class of customer. We do not manage or evaluate the business based on product line or any other discernable category.

Note 5. Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value and includes material, labor and factory overhead. The Company records valuation adjustments for the excess cost of the inventory over its estimated net realizable value. Valuation adjustments for slow-moving and obsolete inventory are calculated using an estimated percentage applied to inventories based on a physical inspection of the product in connection with a physical inventory, a review of slow-moving products and component stage, inventory category, historical and forecasted consumption of sales, and consideration of active marketing programs. The market for education furniture is traditionally driven by value, not style, and the Company has not typically incurred significantmaterial obsolescence expenses. If market conditions are less favorable than those anticipated by management, additional valuation adjustments may be required. Due to reductions in sales volume in the past years, the Company’s manufacturing facilities are operating at reduced levels of capacity. The Company records the cost of excess capacity as a period expense, not as a component of capitalized inventory valuation.

The following table presents a breakdown of the Company’s inventories as of October 31, 2021,2022, January 31, 20212022 and October 31, 2020:2021:

Note 6. Leases

The Company has operating leases on real property, equipment, and automobiles that expire at various dates.dates though 2026. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and assesses classification of the lease at commencement. All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases, as a lessee.leases. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable, or the incremental borrowing rate. Our incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments using company specific credit spreads. The Company’s lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease only when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for our operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company and Virco Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Borrowers”) hashave a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and lender (“PNC”).The Credit Agreement was amended numerous times since its origination in December 2011.On September 28, 2021, the Borrowers entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Restated Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, which amended and restated the prior Credit Agreement. The material terms of the Restated Credit Agreement are substantially the same as thoseand effectively incorporated all of the prior Credit Agreement.amendments into an amended and restated form of agreement.

The Restated Credit Agreement permits the Company to issue dividends or make payments with respect to the Company’s capital stock in an aggregate amount up to $3,000,000$3.0 million during any fiscal year, provided that no default shall have occurred or is continuing or would result from any such payment, and the Company must demonstrate pro forma compliance with a 12-month trailing fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.20:1.00 as of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of any such dividend or payment. The Restated Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and contains numerous other covenants that limit under certain circumstances the ability of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries to, among other things, merge with or acquire other entities, incur new liens, incur additional indebtedness, sell assets outside of the ordinary course of business, enter into transactions with affiliates, or substantially change the general nature of the business of the Borrowers. In connection with the Restated Credit Agreement, the Company also agreed to pay to PNC Bank a non-refundable fee of $50,000. The maturity date of the Restated Credit Agreement is March 19, 2023.

The other material terms of the Restated Credit Agreement are substantially the same as those of the original Credit Agreement, consisting of (i) a revolving line of credit with a Maximum Revolving Advance Amount of $65,000,000$65.0 million that is subject to a borrowing base limitation and generally provides for advances of up to 85% of eligible accounts receivable, plus a percentage equal to the lesser of 60% of the value of eligible inventory or 85% of the liquidation value of eligible inventory, plus $15,000,000$15.0 million from January through July of each year, minus undrawn amounts of letters of credit and reserves and (ii) an equipment loan of $2,000,000.reserves. The Restated Credit
15


Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Borrowers’ personal property and certain of the Borrowers’ real property. The principal amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement and any accrued and unpaid interest is due no later than March 19, 2023, and the Restated Credit Agreement is subject to certain prepayment penalties upon earlierearly termination of the Restated Credit Agreement. Prior to the maturity date, principal amounts outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement may be repaid and reborrowed at the option of the Borrowers without premium or penalty, subject to borrowing base limitations, seasonal adjustments and certain other conditions, including reduced borrowings under the revolving line to less than or equal $10,000,000$10.0 million for a period of 30 consecutive days during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. The Restated Credit Agreement also contains certain financial covenants, including a fixed charge coverage ratio beginningand limits on February 1st, 2021 of not less than 1.10 to 1.00, and capital expenditures not to exceed $8,000,000.expenditures.

The Company was in violation of its financial covenants under the Restated Credit Agreement as of OctoberJanuary 31, 20212022, due to a declinean increase in the Company’s net incomeloss primarily attributable to the effects of severe supply chain disruptions and labor shortages due to COVID-19.shortages. On December 7, 2021,April 15, 2022, the Company successfully negotiated and entered into Amendment No. 12 to the Restated Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”2”) with PNC Bank. Amendment No. 1 provided a limited waiver, which implemented the following changes to the Credit Agreement and Revolving Credit Facility:

i.extended the final maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from March 19, 2023 to April 15, 2027;

ii.increased the borrowing limit from $65.0 million to $70.0 million in July 2022 and August 2022, and increased the borrowing limit from $40,000,000 to $45,000,000 in October 2022;

iii.waived the Company’s violation of the covenant to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.10 to 1.00 for the fourperiod ended January 31, 2022;

iv.for the first and second quarters of fiscal quarter periods ended Octoberyear ending January 31, 2021, and amended2023, implemented a temporary year-to-date adjusted EBITDA covenant in lieu of testing the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant as follows: (i) 1.00 to 1.00 for eachof such quarters, with quarterly testing of the consecutive fourfixed charge coverage ratio to resume for the third fiscal quarter periodsand thereafter;

v.permits a sale and leaseback transaction of Borrowers ending January 31, 2022the Company’s property at 1655 Amity Road and April 30, 2022,release of the lender’s pledge on the property, with the net proceeds to be used for a proposed share repurchase;

vi.retired LIBOR (London Inter-Bank Offered Rate) pricing on the Revolving Credit Facility and (ii) 1.10replaced with BSBY (Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield) index, with pricing tiers and spreads to 1.00remain the same;

vii.extended the P-card, ACH Credit, and ACH debit facilities for each consecutive four fiscal quarter periods of an additional year beyond their current maturities; and

viii.Borrowers ending thereafter. In connection with Amendment No. 1, the Company also agreed to pay to PNC Bank a non-refundable$250,000 extension fee and $75,000 waiver and amendment fee, with $200,000 due at closing and $125,000 due on the first anniversary of $50,000.closing.

The Revolving Credit Facility bears interest, at the Borrowers’ option, at either the Alternate Base Rate (as definedCompany was in the Credit Agreement) or the LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for Alternate Base Rate loans is a percentage within a range of 1.25% to 1.75%, and the applicable margin for LIBOR Rate loans is a percentage within a range of 2.25% to 2.75%, and may be increased at the Lender’s option by 2.0% during the continuance of an event of default. Accrued interestcompliance with respect to principal amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement is payable in arrears on a monthly basis for Alternative Base Rate loans, and at the end of the applicable interest period, but at most every three months for LIBOR Rate loans. The interest rateits debt covenants as of October 31, 2021 was 4.5%. The Company also incurs a fee on the unused portion of the revolving line of credit at a rate of 0.375%.2022.

Prior to the maturity date, principal amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement may be repaid and reborrowed at the option of the Borrowers without premium or penalty, subject to borrowing base limitations, seasonal adjustments and certain other conditions. The principal amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement and any accrued and unpaid interest is due no later than March 19, 2023, and the Revolving Credit Facility is subject to an early termination fee upon an earlier termination of the Revolving Credit Facility.

During the fiscal year ending January 31, 2021, the impact of COVID-19 on liquidity was to moderate the seasonal increase in accounts receivable and production of inventory for summer delivery. Seasonal increases in accounts receivable and inventory
16


are traditionally financed through the Company’s line of credit with PNC Bank. Reductions in inventory were substantially offset by a reduction in borrowing under the revolving line with PNC Bank.

In addition to the financial covenants, the Restated Credit Agreement containsprovides for customary events of default, as disclosed in Note 3subject to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended January 31, 2021.certain cure periods and other limitations. Substantially all of the Borrowers' accounts receivable are automatically and promptly swept to repay amounts outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement upon receipt by the Borrowers. Due to this automatic liquidating nature of the Restated Credit Agreement, if the Borrowers breach any covenant, violate any representation or warranty or suffer a deterioration in their ability to borrow pursuant to the borrowing base calculation, the Borrowers may not have access to cash liquidity unless provided by PNC at its discretion.

The Company's revolving line of credit with PNC is structured to provide seasonal credit availability during the Company's peak summer season. Approximately $13,741,000$14.5 million was available for borrowing as of October 31, 2021.2022. The interest rate as of October 31, 2022 was 7.50%. The Company also incurs a fee on the unused portion of the revolving line of credit at a rate of 0.375%.

In addition to the outstanding debt balance of $12.2 million on the Company's revolving credit line, the Company also carries a mortgage on a manufacturing building in Conway Arkansas. The original note was dated August 2017 for $5.8 million, at a fixed rate of 4% per year and 20 years term. The outstanding amount under this note was $4.7 million as of October 31, 2022.

Management believes that the carrying value of debt approximated fair value at October 31, 2021,2022, as all of the long-term debt bears interest at variable rates based on prevailing market conditions.

Note 8. Income Taxes
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more-likely-than-notmore likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized.The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the

generation of future taxable income or reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. As a part of this evaluation, the Company assesses all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, the availability of tax carrybacks,carry backs, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations (including cumulative losses in recent years), to determine whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to realize existing deferred tax assets. OnThe Company incurredoperating losses for fiscal years ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 and when combined with operating results from fiscal year ended January 31, 2020, the basisCompany had incurred a cumulative operating loss for the last three fiscal years. As a result, the Company identified objective and verifiable negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses in the U.S. and in certain state jurisdictions over the preceding twelve quarters ended January 31, 2022. While the Company has taken significant measures to return to profitability, the short-term outlook for the school furniture market is challenging, particularly relating to ongoing supply chain difficulties. During the fourth quarter of the year ended January 31, 2022, based on this evaluation, and after considering future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and the effects of seasonality on the Company’s business, and the effects of severe supply chain disruptions and labor shortages due to COVID-19, the Company determined that its U.S.the realization of a majority of the net deferred tax assets no longer met the more likely than not criteria and a valuation allowance was recorded against the majority of the net deferred tax assets. Valuation allowances of $8,893,000, $11,412,000 and $1,237,000 as of October 31, 2022, January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively, are needed for federal deferred tax assets are more-likely-than-not to be realizable, but that valuation allowances of $1,237,000, $1,064,000 and $1,133,000 as of October 31, 2021, January 31, 2021 and October 31, 2020, respectively, are needed for certain state NOL’snet operating loss carryforwards to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets to an amount that is more-likely-than-notmore likely than not to be realized.

The Company has taken significant measures to return to profitability, order rates for the first nine months of the year were favorable, and the third quarter and year-to-date results are showing significant improvement compared to the prior year. Despite these improvements the Company is still operating at a cumulative twelve quarter operating loss at October 31, 2022. If the current favorable trends in operating income continue through the balance of the year, the Company will utilize a material portion of the net operating losses and will re-evaluate the balance of the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis.

For the three months ended October 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, the effective income tax rates were 18.2%3.9% and 7.9%18.2%, respectively. For the nine months ended October 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, the effective income tax rates were 22.2%2.6% and 6.6%22.2%, respectively. EffectiveThe change in effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2022, was primarily due to the recording of a valuation allowance needed for federal deferred tax assets and certain state net operating loss carryforwards which commenced in the fourth quarter of fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 and continued through the period ended October 31, 2022. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020 werewas primarily due to the change in forecasted mix of income before taxes in various jurisdictions, estimated permanent differences and the recording of a partial valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") was signed. The Company has performed an analysis of the impact of the CARES Act and have determined that the impact would not be significant. The CARES Act provides single-employer pension companies additional time to meet the funding obligations. Consequently, the tax deduction related to such contributions will be deferred until the funding payment is made. The CARES Act also modifies the limitation for business interest expense deduction.The new limitation has increased from 30 to 50 percent of adjusted taxable income.

The January 31, 20162017 and subsequent fiscal years remain open for examination by the IRS and state tax authorities. The Company is not currently under any state examination. The Company is currently under IRS examination for its fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 Federal tax return.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations


Results of Operations

The effects of COVID-19Overview

The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 31, 20212022 and the comparable periods ended October 31, 20202021 have been significantly impacted by economic conditions driven by the COVID-19 pandemic.pandemic, global supply chain disruptions and global conflict. The impact of COVID-19 has been quite different during the current year compared to the prior year. Typically, the Company has an exceptionally seasonal annual cycle where approximately 50% of sales occur in the months of June, July and August. Orders received from customers follow a similar seasonal cycle, with the bulk of orders arriving approximately 4-6 weeks preceding the selling season.

During the threethree-month and nine-month periods ended October 31, 2020,2021, the majority of our primary customers the K-12 public school systems, closed school campuses and initiated remote learning onhad either returned to full time classroom instruction or about March 15, 2020. Most school districts continued with remote learningwere planning for the academic year ended June 2020 and into the year beginning August 2020, with a minority of districts attempting hybrid or on-site learning.an imminent return. During this period, our direct sales force, onethe Company received a large number of orders earlier than usual for immediate delivery in anticipation of the return to classroom instruction. Due to shortages of labor and raw materials, the Company was not able to deliver the ordered furniture during the traditional three months seasonal window in 2021, and therefore elevated production and shipping activity extended through the fourth quarter ended January 31, 2022. The Company began this fiscal year with a backlog of unshipped sales orders that was approximately $20 million more than typical of prior years.

For the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 31, 2022, management believes that the traditional seasonal cycle and the Company’s distinct competitive advantages, was unableability to make in-person sales call. Our primary customers, educators and district business officials, were typically working remotely which complicated selling activities. Asservice that seasonal cycle has started to return to normal. Year-to-date the Company experienced a result,6.7% increase in orders compared to the same period last year, but quarterly order rates during our traditionally busy summer seasonwere volatile compared to the prior year and returned to a more traditional seasonal cycle. During the quarter ended October 31, 2022, the Company experienced a 15.9% decrease in orders compared to the same period last year, while orders for the first two quarters of June 2020 through August 2020 declined, causing a reduction in sales.2022 increased compared to the same period last year.

During the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 31, 2021, the Company incurred severe price increases in the cost of raw materials. By example the cost of steel, depending on type, increased by 50% to 100% during the year. In addition to increased costs, the Company incurred shortages of domestically supplied materials including steel, plastic, resin, and wood. These cost increases continued through the end of the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022. During the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 31, 2021, the Company incurred labor shortages and had severe difficulty hiring both permanent and temporary labor. The Company paid significant amounts of double-time wages to both factory and warehouse employees, which adversely affected financial results. In comparison, the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 31, 2022 were characterized by continued high raw material costs, but did not incur the same severe spike in raw material costs incurred in the prior year. Many raw material costs continued to increase moderately during the nine months ended October 31, 2021, many school districts announced hybrid or on-site learning beginning in approximately April 2021.2022, but the cost of steel and select other costs have declined. The Company received a large volumeraised factory wages by nearly $3 per hour in the fourth quarter of orders for immediate delivery during this period. The large majority of schools returnedfiscal year ended January 31, 2022. This increased factory direct labor and overhead expenses, but allowed the Company to on-site learninghire and retain adequate permanent and temporary labor. Production levels for the academic year beginning in the fall of 2021. Comparednine months ended October 31, 2022 increased by 18% compared to the same periods inprior year, but the prior fiscal year, orders receivedentire increase occurred in the first quarter ended April 30, 2021six months of the year to support increased by 26.7%, orders received inlevels of seasonal summer sales. Increased levels of factory production and the second quarterrelated overhead absorption partially offset the effect of increased labor expenses.

Supply chain disruptions from international sources – primarily China – continue to adversely affect operations and the competitive landscape. In the six-month period ended July 31, 2021, obtaining materials from China was adversely affected by sharply increased freight costs and by 29.9%,severe disruptions in ocean freight at domestic ports. The Company experienced supply chain disruptions from domestic suppliers in addition to imported components. In the current nine-month period ended October 31, 2022, the port congestion has improved moderately and orders receivedocean freight costs have not been as volatile as in the prior year, but China’s severe lockdowns of major cities due to COVID has adversely affected shipments from China to the United States. Because the Company has maintained its domestic factories, management believes that the Company will be less vulnerable to international supply chain disruption compared to competitors that source finished goods overseas, but the Company will still be affected by these international events.

Virco does not deliver furniture to new schools until the customer has an occupancy certificate. Supply chain disruptions in the construction industry which may delay the completion of new schools did not significantly impact sales volume during the traditionally slow third quarter ended October 31, 2021 increased by 59.0%. Year-to-date 2021 orders increased by 35.1% compared to 2020. However, due to supply chain issues and a shortage2022, but may impact the timing of labor, production and sales levels did not keep up withduring the increase in orders. The Company’s order backlog at October 31, 2021 was 195% greater than October 31, 2020, increasing to $50,955,000 compared to $17,249,000.balance of the year.

Due to uncertainty created by COVID-19 during the year ended January 31, 2021, the Company moderated production levels to reflect the reduced order activity and maintained conservative inventory levels going into the current year. The current year has been characterized by severe supply chain issues, which were exacerbated by our low levels of inventory going into the year. The Company has significant domestic manufacturing capabilities and manufactures the large majority of finished goods domestically, but the Company imports a number of components from manufacturers in China. The cost and timely delivery of these components have been adversely affected by difficulties at the ports and by cost increases from China. The cost and availability of domestically sourced steel, plastic, resin, wood, and a variety of other raw materials has been extremely challenging. In addition to significant difficulty obtaining adequate supplies of domestically sourced materials, the cost of domestically sourced materials increased significantly, with the cost of steel more than doubling during the year, which has caused our pre-tax profit and gross margin to decline.

The availability of labor, both permanent employees and temporary employees, has also been severely negatively impacted. In response to a labor shortage in operations, and to reward employees who worked substantial overtime hours during the seasonal summer peak, the Company has announced that for all factory and warehouse hourly employees, all overtime hours would be paid at double time rather than the traditional time and one-half for hours worked between June 1 and continuing through December 31. This cost the Company an additional $1.5 - $2.0 million during the second and third quarters. The Company believes that this increased cost was offset in part by the increased efficiency of using experienced Virco employees with a substantial reduction in temporary labor.

In order to improve our ability to hire direct labor, the Company increased the starting wage rate to $15 per hour on October 1, 2021. Subsequent to October 31, 2021 the Company gave wage increases to hourly workers who did not benefit from the increased entry wage rates, to alleviate compression of wage rates in operations. These changes enabled the Company to successfully add employees during October. It is anticipated that the Company may hire as many as 75 permanent employees in operations prior to next year’s second quarter.

Production rates in our factories declined during the first and second quarters due to the material and labor shortages. Production decreased by 25% in the first quarter compared to the same period last year. Production decreased by 8% in the second quarter compared to the same period last year. During the third quarter, production rates typically decline as the summer deliveries conclude. During the current year, the Company continued to work significant overtime and successfully hire additional workers in October. Production rates increased by 39% in the third quarter compared to the same period last year. Production efficiencies during the year declined compared to the prior year. Manufacturing employees were required to

The Company incurred increased freight rates, but because the Company anticipates that production rates will remain greater thanincreased selling prices at the priorbeginning of the year, and will continue to operate at increased levels until the Company works down its backlogfreight costs as a percentage of sales orders.have been stable. In addition, approximately two thirds of the pig iron used in domestic steel production comes from Russia and Ukraine. During the quarter ended October 31, 2022, steel prices declined, but remain high in comparison to the beginning of 2021.

BecauseAs discussed in the first quarterRisk Factors section of the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022, the Company utilizes one nationwide contract to price a significant portion of our orders. This contract/price list determines selling prices for goods and services for periods of one year and occasionally longer. Due to the current volatile nature of commodity and energy prices in addition to general inflation, the Company has negotiated the ability to increase prices for orders received after July 1 of each contract year in addition to the January 1 price increase. There is a seasonally slow period,typically several months' time lag between raising prices on orders and realizing the increase in sales activity during the first fiscal quarter of 2022 was not significantly affected by the supply chain considerations.revenue. Sales volume for the first quarter ended April 30, 2021 increased by 59.2% compared2022 consisted substantially of orders received prior to the same period of the prior year.

During the second quarter, which includes two of the three months that typically account for 50% of our annual sales, the supply chain issues were challenging.January 1, 2022 price increase. Sales for the second quarter were flat comparedended July 31, 2022 and third quarter ending October 31, 2022 substantially consist of orders received prior to the same periodJuly 1, 2022 price increase. The impact of the prior year despiteprice increase for orders received after July 1, 2022 should benefit the strong orders discussed above. Backlog of orders at July 31, 2021 was approximately $20 million greater than the prior year.

During the third quarter, which includes one of the three months that typically account for 50% of our annual sales, supply chain and labor shortages continued to adversely affect operations. Sales for the third quarter ended October 31, 2021 were flat compared to the same period last year despite strong orders. Backlog of orders at October 31, 2021 was $33,700,000 higher than the same date last year.

Inventory levels at October 31, 2021 are greater than the same date last year due to the increased material cost component, but significantly lower than the prior year in terms of unit quantity.

The Company believes that it will make material gains in shipping the order backlog during theCompany’s fourth quarter ending January 31, 2022. Raises for entry level employees have already been effective in hiring new employees in operations. Some of2023 to the supply chain issues experiencedextent such orders are shipped during the year are starting to improve.

Three Months Ended October 31, 2021

Order rates for the three months ended October 31, 2021 increased significantly compared to the prior year. Orders for the third quarter, which is traditionally a slower period for orders, increased by 59.2%, but sales were flat, increasing by 0.2% compared to the same period of the prior year. Backlog of orders at October 31, 2021 is approximately $33.7 million greater than the prior year. The Company anticipates that a significant portion of the increased backlog will ship during the fourth quarter, with a portion delivered in the first quarter of the next fiscal year.2022

Sales increased by approximately $20,064,000 or 35.0%, compared to the same period in 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
In years not impacted by COVID,
The market for education furniture is extremely seasonal and approximately 50% of the Company's annual sales volume is shipped in the months of June through August of each year. The Company traditionally manufactures large quantities of inventory during the first and second quarters of each fiscal year in anticipation of seasonally high summer shipments. In addition, the Company finances a large balance of accounts receivable during the peak season. As discussed above, during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 the Company experienced severe supply chain disruptions and labor availability and delivered orders later in the year. In the current year impact of COVID has moderated the summer peak deliveries, andquarter ended October 31, 2022, the Company has operated with reduced levels of inventory when measured by unit quantity. This has reduced the need for seasonal borrowing under our line of credit.

Accounts receivable increased by $7,947,000 at October 31, 2021 comparedcontinued to experience supply chain challenges, but not to the same datedegree as in the prior year. InThe Company believes that traditional seasonal sales cycle has substantially returned for the quarter ended October 31, 2022, and will continue through the fourth quarter ending January 31, 2023.

Inventory increased by $16,982,000 at October 31, 2022 compared to October 31, 2021. Approximately 11% of the increase in inventory was valuation as a result of increased material and labor costs, and the balance was due to increased quantity. The quantity of inventory increased due to increased sales volume, and because the Company did not have adequate levels of inventory in the prior year the majority of third quarter sales were in August and had been collected by quarter end. In the current third quarter, October was the largest month of sales revenue, and the October shipments increased receivables at October 31, 2021. Inventory increased by $3,611,000 at October 31, 2021 compareddue to the prior year.supply chain issues. The decrease in units was more than offset by the increase in dollars due to theinventory was financed by increased material cost of the inventory.

Outstanding debt at October 31, 2021 includes an equipment loan from PNC in the amount of $278,000 and a seller financed mortgage on a manufacturing facility in Conway, Arkansas.

Capital expenditures are being financed through the Company's credit facility with PNC Bank and operating cash flow and restricted to not exceed $8,000,000 per year by covenant.

On September 28, 2021, theThe Company and Virco Inc.,was in violation of its wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Borrowers”), entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Restated Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, which amended and restated the prior Revolving Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of December 22, 2011, between the Borrowers and PNC Bank. The material terms of the Restated Credit Agreement are substantially the same as those of the prior agreement. The Restated Credit Agreement permits the Company to issue dividends or make payments with respect to the Company’s capital stock in an aggregate amount up to $3,000,000 during any fiscal year, provided that no default shall have occurred or is continuing or would result from any such payment, and the Company must demonstrate pro forma compliance with a 12-month trailing fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.20:1.00 as of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of any such dividend or payment. The Restated Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and contains numerous otherfinancial covenants that limit under certain circumstances the ability of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries to, among other things, merge with or acquire other entities, incur new liens, incur additional indebtedness, sell assets outside of the ordinary course of business, enter into transactions with affiliates, or substantially change the general nature of the business of the Borrowers. In connection with the Restated Credit Agreement, the Company also agreed to pay to PNC Bank a non-refundable fee of $50,000. The maturity date of the Restated Credit Agreement is March 19, 2023.

As a result of severe supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, the Borrowers were not in compliance with the fixed-charge coverage ratio requirement under the Restated Credit Agreement as of OctoberJanuary 31, 2021.2022, due to an increase in the Company’s net loss primarily attributable to the effects of supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. On December 7, 2021,April 15, 2022, the Company successfully negotiated and entered into Amendment No. 12 to the RestatedRevolving Credit and Security Agreement (“with PNC Bank,

which implemented certain changes to the Company’s credit facility with PNC Bank, including the extension of the final maturity date of the facility to April 15, 2027 and increase in the borrowing limit from $65,000,000 to $70,000,000 in July and August 2022, and from $40,000,000 to $45,000,000 in October 2022. See Note 7. Debt of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Based on the Company’s current projections, including COVID-19 related costs, raw material costs and its ability to introduce price increases, management believes it will maintain compliance with its financial covenants under Amendment No. 1”)2, although risks and uncertainties remain, such as economic conditions, changing raw material costs and supply chain challenges. The Company was in compliance with PNC Bank. Amendment No. 1 provided a limited waiverits debt covenants as of the Company’s violation of the covenant to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.10 to 1.00 for the four fiscal quarter periods ended October 31, 2021, and amended the fixed charge coverage ratio as follows: (i) 1.00 to 1.00 for each of the consecutive four fiscal quarter periods of Borrowers ending January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, and (ii) 1.10 to 1.00 for each consecutive four fiscal quarter periods of Borrowers ending thereafter. In connection with Amendment No. 1, the Company also agreed to pay to PNC Bank a non-refundable fee of $50,000.2022.

The Company believes that cash flows from operations, together with the Company's unused borrowing capacity with PNC Bank will be sufficient to fund the Company's debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs for the next twelve months as long as no unanticipated supply chain or COVID related events occur.months.
