Forward-Looking Statements

This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Report are forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these statements. These forward-looking statements include statements that reflect the current views of our senior management with respect to our financial performance and future events with respect to our business and our industry in general. Statements that include the words “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “project,” “forecast,” “estimate,” “may,” “should,” “anticipate” and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements address matters that involve risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. We believe that these factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

·	adverse changes in the current global economic or political environment or in the markets in which we operate, including the natural gas infrastructure, power generation, and petrochemical and processing industries;

·	compliance with United States and foreign laws and regulations, including export control and economic sanctions laws and regulations, which are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent over time;

·	changes in existing environmental legislation or regulations;

·	risks associated with our indebtedness, the terms of our credit agreements and our ability to raise additional capital;

·	changes in competition;

·	changes in demand for our products;

·	our ability to realize the full value of our backlog and the timing of our receipt of revenue under contracts included in backlog;

·	risks associated with our product warranties; and

·	changes in the price, supply or demand for natural gas, bio fuel, oil or coal.

The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in this and other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the information in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of Part I to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 28, 2014. There may be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by law.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of PMFG, Inc. and subsidiaries have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. References to “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to PMFG, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 28, 2015 and for the three and nine months ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014 are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the interim periods have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 28, 2014.

Each of the Company’s interim reporting periods ends on the Saturday closest to the last day of the corresponding quarterly calendar period. References to “fiscal 2015” and “fiscal 2014” refer to fiscal years ended June 27, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively. The third quarters of fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2014 ended on March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively.

Basis of Consolidation

The Company’s financial statements for all periods presented are consolidated to include the accounts of all wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company is the majority owner of Peerless Propulsys China Holdings LLC (“Peerless Propulsys”). The Company’s 60% equity investment in Peerless Propulsys entitles it to 80% of the earnings of Peerless Propulsys. Peerless Propulsys is the sole owner of Peerless China Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (“PCMC”). The non-controlling interest of Peerless Propulsys is reported as a separate component on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash balances, including restricted cash, held within and outside the United States are as follows (in thousands):

	March 28,		June 28,
	2015		2014
Domestic	$	20,358	$	19,351
International		15,065		23,493
Total	$	35,423	$	42,844

The Company maintains cash balances in bank accounts that normally exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. As of March 28, 2015 and June 28, 2014, cash held in the United States exceeded federally insured limits by $8.3 million and $9.1 million, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses related to this cash concentration.

The Company had restricted cash balances of $16.1 million and $15.6 million as of March 28, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively. Foreign restricted cash balances were $4.1 million and $5.6 million as of March 28, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively. Cash balances were restricted to collateralize letters of credit and financial institution guarantees issued in the ordinary course of business and to secure the term loans and letters of credit as required under the terms of our existing Credit Agreement.

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable are due from companies in various industries. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition. Generally, collateral is not required except on credit extended to international customers. Accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than contractual payment terms are considered past due.

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Unaudited

March 28, 2015

The Company records an allowance on a specific basis by considering a number of factors, including the length of time the accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company and the condition of the customer’s industry and the economy as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible. Payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts in the period the payment is received.

Changes in the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts are as follows (in thousands):

	Nine months ended
	March 28,			March 29,
	2015			2014
Balance at beginning of period	$	216		$	300
Bad debt expense		197			64
Acquired - CCA		—			26
Accounts written off		(134	)		(80	)
Balance at end of period	$	279		$	310

Inventories

The Company values its inventories using the lower of weighted average cost or market. The Company regularly reviews the value of inventories on hand and records a provision for obsolete and slow-moving inventory based on historical usage and estimated future usage. In assessing the ultimate realization of its inventory, the Company is required to make judgments as to future demand requirements. As actual future demand or market conditions may vary from those projected by the Company, adjustments to inventory valuations may be required.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over a period considered adequate to depreciate the total cost over the useful lives of the assets, as follows:

Buildings and improvements		5 - 40 years
Equipment		3 - 10 years
Furniture and Fixtures		3 - 15 years

Routine maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Major improvements that extend the life, increase the capacity or improve the safety or the efficiency of property owned are capitalized. Major improvements to leased buildings are capitalized as leasehold improvements and amortized over the shorter of the estimated life or the remaining lease term.

In September 2013, the Company exited its leased manufacturing and office facility in Zhenjiang, China. The property was leased from the noncontrolling interest owner of Peerless Propulsys. Early termination of the lease resulted in $0.2 million of expense included in costs of goods sold in the nine months ended March 29, 2014.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and exceeds its fair value. If conditions indicate an asset might be impaired, the Company estimates the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. The impairment would be measured by the amount by which the asset exceeds its fair value, typically represented by the discounted cash flows associated with the asset.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill relates primarily to acquisitions and represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized; however, it is measured at the reporting unit level to test for impairment annually, in the fourth quarter, or more frequently if conditions indicate an earlier review is necessary. A discounted future cash flow analysis is primarily used to determine whether impairment exists. If the estimated fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value, goodwill is impaired and is written down to its estimated fair value.

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Unaudited

March 28, 2015

Intangible assets subject to amortization include licensing agreements, customer relationships and acquired sales order backlog. These intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives based on a pattern in which the economic benefit of the respective intangible asset is realized. Intangible assets considered to have indefinite lives include trade names and design guidelines. The Company evaluates the recoverability of indefinite lived intangible assets annually, in the fourth quarter, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company uses the market and income approach methods to determine whether impairment exists.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s debt approximates fair value as the debt bears interest at floating market rates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue, net of sales taxes, from product sales or services provided when the following revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company provides certain products under long-term, generally fixed-priced, contracts that may extend over multiple financial periods, where revenue and cost of sales are recognized in accordance with accounting rules relating to construction-type and production-type contracts. Amounts recognized in revenue are calculated using the percentage of cost completed (i.e., cumulative cost incurred to date in comparison to the estimated total cost at completion). This method requires the Company to make estimates regarding the total costs of the project at completion, which impacts the amount of gross margin the Company recognizes in each reporting period. The Company routinely reviews its estimates relating to estimated total costs at completion and recognizes changes in those estimates as they are determined. Change orders affecting the contract amount are considered only after receipt of a legally binding agreement. Incremental costs related to change orders are included in the estimate of total costs upon the earlier of receipt of the change order or the Company’s committed purchase obligation. The percentage-of-completion method generally results in the recognition of reasonably consistent profit margins over the life of a contract. Approximately 80% of the Company’s revenue is accounted for using the percentage-of-completion accounting method.

Many of the Company’s customer contracts define events of default related to product performance and/or timing of delivery, as well as remedies for such events of default. Anticipated events of default and estimated remedies, such as those provided under liquidated damages clauses, are accounted for as reductions in revenue in the period in which the potential default is first identified and the damages can be reasonably estimated. Historically, the impact of liquidated damages has not been material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Anticipated losses on percentage-of-completion contracts are recorded in full in the period in which they become evident.

The Company typically bills customers upon the occurrence of project milestones. Cumulative revenue recognized may be less or greater than cumulative costs and profits billed at any point during a contract’s term. The resulting difference is recognized as “costs and earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” or “billings in excess of costs and earnings on uncompleted contracts” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contracts that are considered short-term in nature and require less product customization are accounted for under the completed contract method. Revenue under the completed contract method is recognized upon shipment of the product.

Pre-contract, Start-up and Commissioning Costs

The Company does not consider the realization of any individual sales order as probable prior to order acceptance. Therefore, pre-contract costs incurred prior to sales order acceptance are included as a component of operating expenses when incurred. Some of the Company’s contracts require the installation and placing in service of the product after it is distributed to the end user. The costs of start-up and commissioning and the related revenue associated with the relevant percentage of completion of these projects are recognized in the period incurred. Estimates are based on historical experience and expectation of future conditions.

Warranty Costs

The Company provides to its customers product warranties for specific products during a defined period of time, generally less than 18 months after shipment of the product. Warranties cover the failure of a product to perform after it has been placed in service. The Company reserves for estimated future warranty costs in the period in which the revenue is recognized based on historical experience, expectation of future conditions, and the extent of concurrent supplier warranties in place. Warranty costs are included in “cost of goods sold” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the asset and liability approach in its reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount more likely than not to be realized. Income tax related interest and penalties are included in income tax expense. The Company recognizes in its financial statements the impact of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, if that position is “more likely than not” of being sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authority, based on the technical merits of the position.

The Company is required to estimate income taxes in each jurisdiction in which it operates. This process involves estimating actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from different treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates, the Company’s provision for income taxes could be materially impacted.

At March 28, 2015, the Company had $15.1 million of operating loss carry forwards, primarily in the United States and the United Kingdom. The portion attributable to the United States is available for carryover to future periods, subject to certain limitations with expirations beginning in fiscal 2034. The operating loss carryforward from the United Kingdom has no expiration. A valuation allowance of $5.1 million has been established to reduce the credits to the estimated future realization of the tax related benefit.

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

The Company calculates earnings (loss) per common share by dividing the earnings (loss) applicable to PMFG, Inc. stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share include the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock units and warrants granted using the treasury stock method. For the three and nine months ended March 28, 2015, 171,067 restricted stock units with performance and service-based restrictions were excluded from the calculation of dilutive securities because they were anti-dilutive. Options to acquire 12,000 shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of dilutive securities for the three months ended March 28, 2015 because they were anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014, 72,339 restricted stock units with performance and service-based restrictions were excluded from the calculation of dilutive securities because they were anti-dilutive. Options to acquire 37,200 shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of dilutive securities for the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014 because they were anti-dilutive. Warrants to acquire 839,063 shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of dilutive securities for the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014, because they were anti-dilutive. All warrants expired on September 4, 2014.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is not permitted. Accordingly, we plan to adopt the new guidance beginning in

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Unaudited

March 28, 2015

fiscal 2017. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this new guidance and management is currently evaluating which transition approach to use. Management is assessing the expected impact of this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. This new guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This new guidance will be effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

The reporting units used in assessing goodwill are the same as the Company’s reportable segments, Process Products and Environmental Systems. The goodwill acquired with the purchase of Combustion Components Associates, Inc. (“CCA”) in fiscal 2014 is allocated to and assessed at the Environmental Systems segment, and the remaining goodwill is assessed at the Process Products segment. In March 2015, the Company sold its heat exchanger product line including the Alco, Alco-Twin and Bos Hatten brands for $2.3 million. The sale resulted in a gain of $1.2 million included with Other income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The goodwill associated with the sale of the heat exchanger product line was previously included in the Process Products segment.

In September 2012, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent and other financial institutions party thereto. The Credit Agreement provides for, among other things, revolving credit commitments of $30.0 million to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, term loan commitments of $2.0 million used for the purchase of equipment for a manufacturing facility in Denton, Texas (“Term Loan A”) and term loan commitments of $10.0 million used to fund the construction of the Denton facility (“Term Loan B”). All borrowings and other obligations of the Company are guaranteed by substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company.

The revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement will terminate on September 30, 2015, and all revolving credit loans mature on that date. Under the revolving credit facility, the Company has a maximum borrowing availability equal to the lesser of (a) $30.0 million or (b) the sum of 80% of eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of eligible inventory plus 100% of the cash amount held in a special collateral account less a foreign currency letter of credit reserve. At March 28, 2015, there were no outstanding borrowings and approximately $2.4 million of outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Agreement, leaving the Company with approximately $7.8 million of available capacity for additional borrowings and letters of credit under the Credit Agreement.

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Unaudited

March 28, 2015

The Company is required to make quarterly principal payments on the term loans. The Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain an interest rate protection agreement with respect to at least 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the term loans. As of March 28, 2015, the remaining maturities on long-term debt are as follows:

Fiscal Year
2015	$	1,205
2016		2,559
2017		2,649
2018		2,108
2019		1,204
Thereafter		5,432
	$	15,157

Interest on all loans must generally be paid quarterly. Interest rates on term loans use floating rates plus ¹⁄₂ of 1% up to 2%, plus a margin of between 0 to 75 basis points based upon the Company’s consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA for the trailing four consecutive fiscal quarters. The rate at March 28, 2015 was 2.9%.

At March 28, 2015, the Company was required to maintain a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio (“CTL”) not to exceed 1.75 to 1.00. The CTL ratio is calculated as the ratio of the Company’s aggregate total liabilities to the sum of the excess of the Company’s total assets over its total liabilities as each is determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP.

Under the Credit Agreement, as amended, capital expenditures are limited to (a) those made in connection with the new manufacturing facility in Denton, Texas; (b) those made in connection with the new manufacturing facility in China, not to exceed $13.0 million; and (c) $3.0 million of other capital expenditures in any fiscal year plus any amounts below $3.0 million of expenditures from the immediately preceding fiscal year. The Credit Agreement also contains other covenants, including restrictions on additional debt, dividends, capital expenditures, acquisitions and dispositions.

In fiscal 2014, the Company obtained an amendment to the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the amendment, if the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (“DSC”) is less than 1.50 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter, the Company must deposit and maintain cash in a blocked collateral account (to which only the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement has access) in an aggregate amount equal to the greater of (a) $10.0 million or (b) the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of all revolving credit and swing line loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement, plus (ii) 100% of the undrawn face amount of all performance-related letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement, plus (iii) 30% (subject to upward adjustment) of the undrawn face amount of all warranty-related letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement, plus (iv) $3.0 million, less (v) all term loan principal payments made on or after March 29, 2014. In March 2015, the Company amended the Credit Agreement to increase the minimum amount which must be maintained in a blocked collateral account from $10.0 million to $12.0 million. In connection with the sale of the of heat exchanger product line, the Company obtained a limited one-time waiver for the $500,000 aggregate limitation on the dispositions included in the Credit Agreement. The waiver included a provision that the Company deposit $2.0 million in the blocked collateral account concurrent with the receipt of proceeds from the sale of the heat exchanger product line. On March 27, 2015, the Company received proceeds of $2.3 million from the sale of the heat exchanger product line and deposited $2.0 million into the blocked collateral account in accordance with the amended Credit Agreement and the limited one-time waiver.

The Company may withdraw the cash in the collateral account when it achieves a DSC of at least 1.50 to 1.00 as of the end of a subsequent fiscal quarter, so long as no default or borrowing base deficiency then exists. The DSC ratio is calculated as the ratio of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, less certain restricted cash payments, capitalized expenditures and taxes to the Company’s consolidated fixed charges, which is the sum of the Company’s current maturities of long-term debt and the amount of cash paid for interest on a trailing 12 month basis. At March 28, 2015, the Company’s DSC ratio was below 1.50 to 1.00, requiring restricted cash of $12.0 million to be on deposit with Citibank, N.A.

In July 2013, the Company’s subsidiary in China entered into a loan agreement with Bank of China Limited. The loan agreement provides for a loan commitment of CN¥43.0 million ($6.9 million) to fund the construction of a manufacturing facility in Zhenjiang, China. The loan is secured by PCMC’s property, plant and equipment. The loan matures on December 20, 2017. At March 28, 2015,

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Unaudited

March 28, 2015

there was an outstanding borrowing of CN¥33.0 million ($5.3 million). Beginning June 20, 2014, the Company is required to make semi-annual principal payments on the loan which will be paid using cash on hand in China. Interest rates use floating rates as established by The People’s Bank of China. The rate at March 28, 2015 was 7.0%. The loan agreement also contains covenants, including restrictions on additional debt, dividends, acquisitions and dispositions. At March 28, 2015, PCMC was in compliance with all of its debt covenants. PCMC had bank guarantees of $0.4 million and $0.8 million at March 28, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively, secured by $0.4 million and $0.8 million of restricted cash balances.

The Company’s U.K. subsidiary has a debenture agreement used to facilitate issuances of letters of credit and bank guarantees of £6.0 million ($8.9 million) at March 28, 2015 and £6.0 million ($10.2 million) at June 28, 2014. This facility was secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company’s U.K. subsidiary, a protective letter of credit issued by the Company to HSBC Bank and a cash deposit of £1.9 million ($2.8 million) at March 28, 2015 and £1.8 million ($3.0 million) at June 28, 2014, which is recorded as restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At March 28, 2015 there was £4.4 million ($6.7 million) of outstanding stand-by letters of credit and bank guarantees under this debenture agreement. At June 28, 2014, there was £4.6 million ($7.9 million) of outstanding stand-by letters of credit and bank guarantees under this debenture agreement.

The Company’s German subsidiary has a debenture agreement used to facilitate issuances of letters of credit and bank guarantees of €4.8 million ($5.2 million) at March 28, 2015 and €4.8 million ($6.6 million) at June 28, 2014. This facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company’s German subsidiary and by a cash deposit of €0.7 million ($0.7 million) at March 28, 2015 and €0.9 million ($1.2 million) at June 28, 2014, which is recorded as restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At March 28, 2015, there was €1.8 million ($2.0 million) of outstanding stand-by letters of credit and bank guarantees under this debenture agreement. At June 28, 2014, there was €2.8 million ($3.8 million) of outstanding stand-by letters of credit and bank guarantees under this debenture agreement.

The Company’s subsidiary in Singapore had bank guarantees of $1.0 million and $1.5 million at March 28, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively. At March 28, 2015 and June 28, 2014, these guarantees are secured with a cash deposit of $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and a protective letter of credit issued by the Company to Citibank.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Under the contract for the Nitram acquisition, the Company had certain rights to indemnification from the selling stockholders for claims relating to breach of representations and certain other claims, including litigation costs and damages. In September 2014, the Company reached a final settlement with the Nitram selling stockholders to reimburse the Company for previously incurred warranty and environmental cleanup costs of approximately $0.8 million and resolve all outstanding matters. The Company recorded $0.4 million as an offset to cost of goods sold and the remainder was offset to general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The Company issues surety bonds as an alternative to issuance of letters of credit or bank guarantees. The Company was contingently liable for $12.1 million and $11.7 million of outstanding surety bonds at March 28, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively.

From time to time the Company is involved in various litigation, claims and assessment matters arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for contingencies when losses are both probable and reasonably estimable.

9. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The following information represents the Company’s grants of stock-based compensation to employees and directors during the nine months ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014 (in thousands, except share amounts):

	Nine months ended
	March 28,				March 29,
	2015				2014
Grant Type	Number of Shares Granted		Fair Value of Grant		Number of Shares Granted		Fair Value of Grant
Stock to directors		44,196	$	240		40,430	$	300
Restricted stock awards		170,750		971		101,410		752
Performance based restricted stock units (at target)		96,363		523		77,460		575

The stock granted to the members of the Board of Directors vested upon grant, therefore the fair value amount was recognized as expense at the time of grant. The compensation expense for the restricted stock awards granted to officers and other employees in fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2014 is recognized over a three-year vesting period. The compensation expense is based on the fair value of the awards on the grant date, net of forfeitures.

In July 2013 and July 2014, the Company also awarded restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which are subject to both service and performance conditions, to some of the officers of the Company. The fair value of the RSUs is based on the probability of the performance condition being achieved on the date of grant. The actual number of shares that are eligible to vest is determined based on the Company’s performance during the performance period, which is a year from the date of grant, against established metrics and could range from 0% to 200% of the number of units originally granted. The RSUs are issuable based on the one year performance period and cliff vest on the third anniversary of the grant date subject to the continued employment of the grantee. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the RSUs based upon management’s determination of the potential likelihood of achievement of the performance conditions at each reporting date, net of estimated forfeitures.

The Company recognized $1.1 million and $0.8 million of stock-based compensation expense in the nine months ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively. The Company recognized $0.3 million and $0.2 million of stock-based compensation expense in the three months ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively.

10. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements that effectively convert the interest rates on the long-term debt issued under the Credit Agreement from floating to fixed rates. The following table summarizes the interest rate agreements in effect as of March 28, 2015 (in thousands):

Fixed Interest Rate		Expiration Date	Notional Amounts
	1.95%	September 30, 2022	$	9,000
	1.50%	September 30, 2019		1,000

The swap agreements are recorded as an asset or liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value, with the change in fair value recorded as interest expense within the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company is exposed to market risk under these arrangements due to the possibility of interest rates on the term loans under the Credit Agreement declining to below the rates on the interest rate swap agreements. Credit risk under these arrangements is believed to be remote as the counterparty to the interest rate swap agreements is a major financial institution; however, if the counterparty to the derivative instrument arrangements becomes unable to fulfill its obligations to the Company, the financial benefits of the arrangements may be lost.

The derivatives recorded at fair value in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets were (in thousands):

	Derivative Liabilities
	March 28,			June 28,
	2015			2014
Interest rate swap contracts	$	(201	)	$	(68	)

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.

·	Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets.

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices included for identical or similar assets and liabilities that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. These are typically obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable instruments.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own beliefs about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available in the circumstances.

A summary of derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows (in thousands):

	Fair Value
	as of
	March 28, 2015			Level 1		Level 2			Level 3
Liability - Interest rate swap contracts	$	(201	)	$	—	$	(201	)	$	—


	Fair Value
	as of
	June 28, 2014			Level 1		Level 2			Level 3
Liability - Interest rate swap contracts	$	(68	)	$	—	$	(68	)	$	—

The fair value of the interest rate swaps is determined based on the notional amounts of the swaps and the forward LIBOR curve relative to the fixed interest rates under the swap agreements. The Company classifies these instruments in Level 2 because quoted market prices can be corroborated utilizing observable benchmark market rates at commonly quoted intervals, observable current and forward commodity market prices on active exchanges, and observable market transactions of spot currency rates and forward currency prices.

11. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has two reportable segments: Process Products and Environmental Systems. The Process Products segment produces various types of separation and filtration equipment used for removing liquids and solids from gases and air. The segment also includes industrial silencing equipment to control noise pollution on a wide range of industrial processes and heat transfer equipment to conserve energy in many industrial processes and in petrochemical processing. The Environmental Systems segment designs, engineers and installs highly efficient systems for combustion modification, fuel conversions and post-combustion nitrogen oxide (NOx) control for both new and existing sources. These environmental control systems are used for air pollution abatement and converting burners to accommodate alternative sources of fuel. System applications include Selective Catalytic Reduction (“SCR”) systems and Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (“SNCR”) systems.

The Company allocates all costs associated with the manufacture, sale and design of its products to the appropriate segment. Segment profit and loss is based on revenue less direct expenses of the segment before allocation of general and administrative costs. The Company does not allocate general and administrative expenses (“reconciling items”), assets, or expenditures for assets on a segment basis for internal management reporting; therefore this information is not presented.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On May 3, 2015 the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with CECO Environmental Corp. (“CECO”) and two direct wholly owned subsidiaries of CECO. The boards of directors of the Company and CECO have each unanimously approved the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, CECO will acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock for a combination of cash and stock valued at $6.85 per share. Company stockholders will be able to elect whether to receive cash or stock consideration subject to a proration so that approximately 45% of the outstanding shares of Company common stock will be exchanged for cash consideration and 55% for stock consideration. The stock consideration is subject to a 10% symmetrical collar in which the exchange ratio of shares of CECO common stock exchangeable for PMFG common stock will fluctuate within the collar, but no further increase in the exchange ratio will be made if the CECO common stock trading price at closing is less than $10.61, and no further decrease in the exchange ratio will be made if the CECO common stock trading price is greater than $12.97.

The Merger Agreement contains a “go-shop” provision pursuant to which the Company has the right to solicit, receive, evaluate and engage in discussions and negotiations with respect to competing proposals through July 7, 2015 (the “Go-Shop Expiration Date”). Before the Merger Agreement is approved by the Company’s stockholders, the Company may terminate the Merger Agreement to enter into a “Superior Proposal” (as defined in the Merger Agreement), provided that the Company complies with the requirements under the Merger Agreement, including, among other things, giving 24 hours’ advance notice to CECO and negotiating with CECO in good faith to make any adjustments to the Merger Agreement, if any are offered by CECO. If the Company terminates the Merger Agreement in connection with a Superior Proposal, the Company will pay CECO a termination fee of $1.6 million and reimburse CECO’s expenses in an amount up to an additional $1.6 million.

The completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement is subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of the stockholders of both CECO and the Company and antitrust approval. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of calendar 2015.

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

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand PMFG, Inc., our operations, and our present business environment. MD&A is provided to supplement – and should be read in conjunction with – our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto contained in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report. This overview summarizes the MD&A, which includes the following sections:

·	Our Business – a general description of our business and the key drivers of product demand.

·	Results of Operations – an analysis of our Company’s consolidated and reporting segment results of operations for the three and nine month periods presented in our consolidated unaudited financial statements.

·	Liquidity, Capital Resources and Financial Position – an analysis of cash flows, aggregate contractual obligations, foreign currency exposure and an overview of our financial position.

This discussion includes forward-looking statements that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors described in this and other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the information in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of Part I to our Annual Report for the year ended June 28, 2014. These factors could cause our actual results for future periods to differ materially from those experienced in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements.

Our Business

We are a leading provider of custom-engineered systems and products designed to help ensure that the delivery of energy is safe, efficient and clean. We primarily serve the markets for natural gas infrastructure, power generation and refining and petrochemical processing. With the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Combustion Components Associates, Inc. (“CCA”) in March 2014, we expanded the markets we serve to include industrial and utility industries. We offer a broad range of separation and filtration products, selective catalytic reduction (“SCR”) systems, selective non-catalytic reduction (“SNCR”) systems, low emissions burner and related combustion systems and other complementary products including heat transfer equipment, pulsation dampeners and silencers. Our primary customers include original equipment manufacturers, engineering contractors, commercial and industrial companies and operators of power facilities.

Our products and systems are marketed worldwide. Revenue generated from outside of the United States represented 41% of total revenue in the nine months ended March 28, 2015 compared to 42% in the nine months ended March 29, 2014. As a result of the global demand for our products and the breadth of our global sales and support resources, we expect our international revenue will continue to be a significant percentage of our consolidated revenue in the future. International markets, and in particular emerging markets such as China, India, Latin America, and Northern Africa, will be subject to significant variations in demand from period to period.

We believe our success depends on our ability to understand the complex operational demands of our customers and deliver systems and products that meet or exceed the indicated design specifications. Our success further depends on our ability to provide these products in a cost-effective manner and within the time frames established with our customers. Our gross profit during any particular period may be impacted by several factors, primarily shifts in our product mix, material cost changes, and warranty costs. Shifts in the geographic composition of our revenue also can have a significant impact on our reported margins.

We have two reporting segments: Process Products and Environmental Systems. The Process Products segment produces specialized systems and products that remove contaminants from gases and liquids, improving efficiency, reducing maintenance and extending the life of energy infrastructure. The segment also includes industrial silencing equipment to control noise pollution on a wide range of industrial processes. The Environmental Systems segment designs, engineers and installs highly efficient systems for combustion modification, fuel conversions and post-combustion nitrogen oxide (NOx) control for both new and existing sources. These environmental control systems are used for air pollution abatement and converting burners to accommodate alternative sources of fuel. System applications include combustion systems, SCR systems and SNCR systems.

Key Drivers of Product Demand

We believe demand for our products is driven by the increasing demand for energy in both developed and emerging markets, coupled with the global trend towards increasingly restrictive environmental regulations. These trends should stimulate investment in new power generation facilities and related infrastructure, and in upgrading existing facilities.

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

With a shift to cleaner, more environmentally responsible power generation, power providers and industrial power consumers are building new facilities that use cleaner fuels, such as natural gas, nuclear and renewable resources. In developed markets, natural gas is increasingly becoming one of the energy sources of choice. We supply product offerings throughout the entire natural gas infrastructure value chain and believe the expansion of natural gas infrastructure will drive growth of our process products and the global market for our SCR Systems for natural-gas-fired power plants.

Despite existing concerns over safety and government regulations related to the construction of new nuclear power facilities and the re-licensing of existing facilities, we believe rising nuclear capacity utilization rates and concerns about energy security and emissions will drive the increase for nuclear power generation, both domestically and internationally. China is expected to lead the global expansion of nuclear power generation growth. Re-licensing and enhancements of existing nuclear facilities in the United States and Europe also will contribute to product demand.

We believe these market trends will drive the demand for both our separation/filtration products and our SCR Systems, creating significant opportunities for us. We face strong competition from numerous other providers of custom-engineered systems and products. We, along with other companies that provide alternative products and solutions, are affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, global economic conditions, price stability of oil and natural gas, level of capital spending by companies engaged in energy production, processing, transportation, storage and distribution, as well as current and anticipated environmental regulations.

Recent Developments

On March 27, 2015 we sold our heat exchanger product line including the Alco, Alco-Twin, and Bos-Hatten brands. The product line was acquired in 2008 in connection with the purchase of Nitram Energy, Inc. The heat exchanger product line represented approximately $1.4 million and $4.5 million of revenue in the three and nine month periods ended March 28, 2015, respectively, and approximately $1.4 million and $4.6 million of revenue in the three and nine month periods ended March 29, 2014, respectively. The sale resulted in a gain of $1.2 million included with Other income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

See the Company’s critical accounting policies as described in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 28, 2014. Since the date of that report, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies.

Quarter Ended March 28, 2015 Compared to Quarter Ended March 29, 2014

Revenue. We classify revenue as domestic or international based upon the origination of the order. Revenue generated by orders originating from within the United States is classified as domestic revenue, regardless of where the product is shipped or where it will eventually be installed. Revenue generated by orders originating from a country other than the United States is classified as international revenue. International revenue was approximately 40% and 37% of consolidated revenue in the quarters ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively.

The following summarizes consolidated revenue (in thousands):

	Three months ended
	March 28,		% of Total			March 29,		% of Total
	2015		Revenue			2014		Revenue
Domestic	$	20,862		60.0	%	$	20,381		63.2	%
International		13,904		40.0	%		11,892		36.8	%
Total	$	34,766		100.0	%	$	32,273		100.0	%

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Total revenue increased $2.5 million, or 7.7%, to $34.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to the same period in fiscal 2014. The higher revenue in fiscal 2015 reflects the increased demand for our environmental systems application and the addition of CCA, which was acquired in March 2014.

Gross Profit. Our gross profit during any particular period may be impacted by several factors, primarily revenue volume, shifts in our product mix, material cost changes, warranty, start-up and commissioning costs. Shifts in the geographic composition of our revenue also can have a significant impact on our reported margins. The following summarizes revenue, cost of goods sold and gross profit (in thousands):

	Three months ended
	March 28,		% of Total			March 29,		% of Total
	2015		Revenue			2014		Revenue
Revenue	$	34,766		100.0	%	$	32,273		100.0	%
Cost of goods sold		26,185		75.3	%		24,231		75.1	%
Gross profit	$	8,581		24.7	%	$	8,042		24.9	%

Gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 increased $0.5 million compared to the same period in fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 gross profit is attributed to the higher revenue partially offset by cost overruns and customer back charges on two projects completed during the quarter. Such overruns and back charges reduced gross margin by approximately $1.9 million in the quarter.

Operating Expenses. The following summarizes operating expenses (in thousands):

	Three months ended
	March 28,		% of Total			March 29,		% of Total
	2015		Revenue			2014		Revenue
Sales and marketing	$	3,146		9.0	%	$	3,489		10.8	%
Engineering and project management		3,024		8.7	%		2,726		8.4	%
General and administrative		5,118		14.7	%		5,444		16.9	%
Total	$	11,288		32.4	%	$	11,659		36.1	%

Operating expenses decreased $0.4 million, or 3.2%, for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to the same period in fiscal 2014. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased from period to period primarily due to higher revenue. Additionally, operating expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2014 included some costs which were not repeated in fiscal 2015, including due diligence and transaction costs associated with the acquisition of CCA, implementation of the ERP system in our European locations, and incremental costs associated with our nuclear product line and joint development agreement. These cost savings were offset in part by the on-going operating expenses associated with CCA. The change in operating expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 is as follows:

	Three months ended
	March 28,
	2015
CCA expenses	$	865
Fiscal 2014 acquisition/system implementation/joint development costs		(1,035	)
Personnel		(140	)
Other		(61	)
	$	(371	)

Other Income and Expense. The following summarizes other income and expense (in thousands):

	Three months ended
	March 28,			March 29,
	2015			2014
Interest income	$	25		$	31
Interest expense		(674	)		(436	)
Foreign exchange gain (loss)		(197	)		(194	)
Other income, net		1,280			13
Total other income (expense)	$	434		$	(586	)

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Total other income (expense) was a net income of $0.4 million and a net expense of ($0.6) million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 and 2014, respectively. The three months ended March 28, 2015 reported other income of $1.3 million, driven largely by the gain on the sale of heat exchanger product line.

Income Taxes. Our effective income tax rates were (1.7)% and 10.4% for the quarters ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate primarily because of earnings generated in tax jurisdictions where the Company has net operating loss carryforward credits.

Net Loss. For the three months ended March 28, 2015, the net loss was $2.3 million, a decrease of $1.5 million compared to a net loss of ($3.8) million in the three months ended March 29, 2014. Basic and diluted loss per share attributable to our common stockholders was a loss of ($0.11) per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to a loss of ($0.18) per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2014.

Results of Operations – Segments

We have two reporting segments: Process Products and Environmental Systems.

Process Products

The Process Products segment produces specialized systems and products that remove contaminants from gases and liquids, improving efficiency, reducing maintenance and extending the life of energy infrastructure. The segment also includes industrial silencing equipment to control noise pollution on a wide range of industrial processes. Process Products represented 66% and 75% of our revenue in the quarters ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively. The relative mix of Process Products revenue declined compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2014 because of the acquisition of CCA to our Environmental Systems segment and the growing demand for environmental systems solutions.

The following summarizes the Process Products segment revenue and operating income (in thousands):

	Three months ended
	March 28,			March 29,
	2015			2014
Revenue	$	23,099		$	24,170
Gross profit		4,168			5,304
Operating income		(182	)		24
Operating income as % of revenue		-0.8	%		0.1	%

Process Products revenue decreased $1.1 million, or 4.4%, to $23.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2014. The lower revenue is attributed to lower relative revenue from separation and filtration projects in the United States and Eastern European regions.

Process Products operating income decreased $0.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 18.0% in fiscal 2015 compared to 21.9 % in the prior year. Gross profit was negatively impacted by cost overruns and liquidated damages totaling $1.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 resulting from a single contract for nuclear steam dryers. Changes in the customer-imposed manufacturing requirements implemented late in the fabrication cycle contributed to cost overruns and liquidated damages.

The heat exchanger product line, which we sold on March 27, 2015, contributed approximately $1.4 million of revenue during the three month period ended March 28, 2015 and the three month period ended March 29, 2014. Negative profit margins combined with operating costs related solely to the heat exchanger product line reduced the Process Products segment operating income by $0.5 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2015 and by $0.3 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2014.

Environmental Systems

The Environmental Systems segment designs, engineers and installs highly efficient systems for combustion modification, fuel conversions and post-combustion NOx control for both new and existing sources. These environmental control systems are used for air pollution abatement and converting burners to accommodate alternative sources of fuel. System applications include SCR systems, combustion systems and SNCR systems. The Environmental Systems segment represented 34% and 25% of our consolidated revenue

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

in the quarters ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively. With the increase in demand for environmental system solutions, we anticipate the Environmental Systems segment will continue to be significant as a percentage of our consolidated revenue.

The following summarizes the Environmental Systems segment revenue and operating income (in thousands):

	Three months ended
	March 28,			March 29,
	2015			2014
Revenue	$	11,667		$	8,103
Gross profit		4,413			2,738
Operating income		2,593			1,803
Operating income as % of revenue		22.2	%		22.3	%

Environmental Systems revenue increased $3.6 million to $11.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2014, because of the increase in demand for our Environmental Systems solutions and the contribution of $1.3 million of revenue during the quarter from the acquisition of CCA in March 2014. Gross profit as a percent of revenue was 37.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to 33.8% in the prior year. The higher margin reflects the relative complexity of certain large projects in process during the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Gross profit was negatively impacted in the quarter by approximately $0.5 million related to liquidating damages on a contract completed in the quarter. The liquidated damages settled a customer dispute related to a product design.

Environmental Systems operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 increased $0.8 million compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2014. As a percentage of revenue, operating income remained relatively flat at 22.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to 22.3%, in the third quarter of fiscal 2014.

Nine Months Ended March 28, 2015 Compared to Nine Months Ended March 29, 2014

Results of Operations – Consolidated

Revenue. The following table summarizes consolidated revenue (in thousands):

	Nine months ended
	March 28,		% of Total			March 29,		% of Total
	2015		Revenue			2014		Revenue
Domestic	$	71,774		59.3	%	$	52,399		57.6	%
International		49,171		40.7	%		38,559		42.4	%
Total	$	120,945		100.0	%	$	90,958		100.0	%

For the nine months ended March 28, 2015, total revenue increased $30.0 million, or 33.0%. Domestic revenue increased $19.4 million, or 37.0%, in the nine months ended March 28, 2015 when compared to the same period last year. International revenue increased $10.6 million, or 27.5% in the nine months ended March 28, 2015 when compared to the same period last year. The year-over-year growth in revenue in the United States is largely attributable to higher domestic demand for environmental solutions and our acquisition of CCA. Year-over-year higher demand for oily water separation solutions in the EMEA region and nuclear power generation in the U.S. and Europe led to an increase in our Process Products segment.

Results of Operations – Segments

Process Products

Our Process Products segment represented 64% and 80% of our revenue for the nine months ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively. The following table summarizes Process Products revenue and operating income (in thousands):

	Nine months ended
	March 28,			March 29,
	2015			2014
Revenue	$	77,931		$	72,937
Gross profit		20,192			19,440
Operating income		5,618			4,063
Operating income as % of revenue		7.2	%		5.6	%

Process Products revenue increased by $5.0 million, or 6.8%, in the nine months ended March 28, 2015 when compared to the nine months ended March 29, 2014. The increase in revenue is attributed to increased demand in the EMEA region for pressure vessels and oily water separation applications.

Process Products operating income in the nine months ended March 28, 2015 increased by $1.6 million compared to the nine months ended March 29, 2014. As a percentage of Process Products revenue, operating income was 7.2% in the nine months ended March 28, 2015 compared to 5.6% in the same period in the prior year. In fiscal 2014, the Process Products segment was negatively impacted by transition costs and manufacturing inefficiencies as we began fabrication in new manufacturing facilities in Denton, Texas and Zhenjiang, China.

Environmental Systems

Our Environmental Systems segment represented 36% and 20% of our revenue for the nine months ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively. The following table summarizes Environmental Systems revenue and operating income (in thousands):

	Nine months ended
	March 28,			March 29,
	2015			2014
Revenue	$	43,014		$	18,021
Gross profit		16,020			6,438
Operating income		10,116			4,064
Operating income as % of revenue		23.5	%		22.6	%

Revenue from Environmental Systems increased $25.0 million in the nine months ended March 28, 2015, when compared to the nine months ended March 29, 2014, because of demand for our Environmental Systems solutions and the contribution of $10.4 million of revenue during fiscal 2015 from the acquisition of CCA. The higher margin reflects the relative complexity of certain large projects in process during the current period.

Environmental Systems operating income as a percentage of revenue in the nine months ended March 28, 2015 increased to 23.5%, compared to 22.6% for the nine months ended March 29, 2014. The increase in operating income as a percentage of revenue reflects the improved gross profit as a percentage of revenue.

Contingencies

From time to time we are involved in various litigation, claims and assessment matters arising in the ordinary course of our business. We do not believe the disposition of any current matter will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Decline in Oil Prices

Traditionally one quarter of our products are sold to customers in the oil industry, either at the upstream production point or downstream refinery or petrochemical processing plants. This key end market segment has been impacted by the recent decline of oil

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

prices. Depending on the severity and duration of the decline in oil prices, we could see a negative impact on new project awards related to oil production projects, particularly in international markets.

We noted lower than forecasted bookings in the first two months of the quarter ended March 28, 2015. The lower than forecasted bookings were due in part to customer-initiated delays in contract awards as they evaluated their portfolio of capital projects.

Net Bookings and Backlog

The following table shows the activity and balances related to our backlog for the nine months ended March 28, 2015 and March 29, 2014 (in millions):

	Nine Months Ended
	March 28, 2015			March 29, 2014
Backlog at beginning of period	$	115.9		$	84.2
Net bookings		104.8			111.0
Acquired backlog		—			3.0
Revenue recognized		(120.9	)		(91.0	)
Backlog at end of period	$	99.8		$	107.2

Backlog includes contractual purchase orders for products that are deliverable in future periods less revenue recognized on such orders to date. Our backlog decreased $7.4 million from March 29, 2014 to $99.8 million at March 28, 2015. Approximately $6 million of the backlog value is subject to customer-driven delays attributed to uncertainties surrounding the extent and duration of recent declines in oil prices. Excluding these projects, for which the timeline for completion is uncertain, we expect approximately 85% of the backlog as of March 28, 2015 will be recognized as revenue over the next 12 months.

Financial Position

Assets. Total assets decreased by $0.3 million, or 0.2%, from $167.2 million at June 28, 2014, to $167.0 million at March 28, 2015. On March 28, 2015, we held cash, including restricted cash, and cash equivalents of $35.4 million, had working capital of $51.2 million and a current liquidity ratio of 1.9-to-1.0. This compares with cash, including restricted cash, and cash equivalents of $42.8 million, working capital of $55.1 million, and a current liquidity ratio of 2.1-to-1.0 at June 28, 2014.

Liabilities and Equity. Total liabilities increased by $3.5 million, or 5.0%, from $69.8 million at June 28, 2014 to $73.2 million at March 28, 2015. The increase in our total liabilities is attributed to an increase in accounts payable.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Because we are engaged in the business of manufacturing systems, our progress billing practices are event-oriented rather than date-oriented and vary from contract to contract. Generally, a contract will either allow for amounts to be billed upon shipment or on a progress-basis based on the attainment of certain milestones. We typically invoice our customers upon the occurrence of project milestones. Billings to customers affect the balance of billings in excess of costs and earnings on uncompleted contracts or the balance of costs and earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, as well as the balance of accounts receivable. Consequently, we focus on the net amount of these accounts, along with accounts payable, to determine our management of working capital. At March 28, 2015, the balance of these working capital accounts was $19.4 million compared to $17.3 million at June 28, 2014, reflecting an increase of our investment in these working capital items of $2.1 million.

Many of our customers require bank letters of credit or other forms of financial guarantees to secure progress payments and performance. Such letters of credit and guarantees are issued under various bank and financial institution arrangements (see Note 7 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). As of March 28, 2015 and June 28, 2014, we had outstanding letters of credit and bank guarantees of $12.6 million and $20.4 million, respectively.

Our cash and cash equivalents were $35.4 million as of March 28, 2015, compared to $42.8 million at June 28, 2014, of which $16.1 million and $15.6 million were restricted as collateral for stand-by letters of credit and bank guarantees at March 28, 2015, and June 28, 2014, respectively. Two million of the proceeds from the sale of the heat exchanger product line were contributed to the restricted cash account in the quarter.

PMFG, Inc. and Subsidiaries

During the nine months ended March 28, 2015, cash used in operating activities was $4.6 million compared to cash used in operating activities of $5.5 million for the nine months ended March 29, 2014. Our cash used in operating activities primarily reflects an increase of our investment in working capital.

Cash used in investing activities was $0.6 million for the nine months ended March 28, 2015, compared to cash used in investing activities of $17.6 million for the nine months ended March 29, 2014. Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended March 28, 2015, primarily related to additions to our manufacturing facility in Zhenjiang, China, offset in part by the sale of the heat exchanger product line. Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 included cash consideration paid for the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of CCA on March 28, 2014 and construction costs incurred to date on our new manufacturing facilities in Denton, Texas and Zhenjiang, China. The construction of both facilities has been completed, with only minor remaining capital expenditures expected in future periods for land improvements and finish work related the adjoining office complex in Zhenjiang.

Cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended March 28, 2015 was $1.6 million compared to cash provided by financing activities of $12.0 million during the nine months ended March 29, 2014. The cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended March 28, 2015 was due to the payment of long-term debt. The cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended March 29, 2014 primarily consisted of proceeds from long-term debt as we drew on our construction term loan and the equity contribution from a non-controlling interest in our China subsidiary, offset by a payment of long-term debt.

As a result of the events described above, our cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended March 28, 2015 decreased by $8.0 million compared to a decrease of $10.4 million during the nine months ended March 29, 2014.

The revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement will mature on September 30, 2015. The debenture agreement for our U.K. subsidiary will expire on May 31, 2015. Both the revolving credit facility and the debenture agreement are used to facilitate issuances of letters of credit and bank guarantees, which are required as a condition of being awarded certain contracts, as well as receipt of payments in advance of shipment. We are currently negotiating an extension to the revolving credit facility and the debenture agreement. We currently expect to complete the extensions with financial terms generally consistent with the existing agreements. We believe we maintain adequate liquidity and the capacity to enter into letters of credit and guarantees to support existing operations and planned growth over the next 12 months.

The Company’s management has evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of these disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.
