Exhibit 99.2

Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined and Pro Forma EBITDA As Defined

EBITDA represents earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA As Defined represents EBITDA plus, as applicable for each relevant period, certain adjustments as set forth in the reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined and the reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined presented below. Pro Forma EBITDA As Defined (for the last twelve months ended December 30, 2017) represents EBITDA As Defined plus management’s estimates of the impact of the acquisition of North Hills Signal Processing Corp. and North Hills Signal Processing Overseas Corp. (together, “North Hills”), the acquisition of certain assets of Cablecraft Motion Controls LLC (“Cablecraft”), the acquisition of certain assets of Preece Incorporated (“Preece”) and the acquisition of Extant Components Group Holdings, Inc. (“Extant”) had such transactions occurred at the beginning of the twelve-month period ended December 30, 2017. Due to the unique nature of our acquisition of the Kirkhill elastomers business (“Kirkhill”), which we purchased as a distressed asset in March 2018, our management is currently unable to estimate the impact Kirkhill would have had on our EBITDA As Defined for the last twelve months ended December 30, 2017. While we believe that Kirkhill’s EBITDA as a standalone business may have been negative for the last twelve months ended December 30, 2017, any such loss would have been immaterial to us on a consolidated basis and we believe that, once Kirkhill is fully integrated into our business model, that it will be a positive contributor to our EDITDA As Defined.
