CRAWFORD UNITED CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

JUNE 30, 2020

 

 

 

 

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Crawford United Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. 

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, there have been no changes to our significant accounting policies.

 

 

 

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The Company’s Summary of Significant Accounting Policies is provided with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In January 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." ASU 2017-04 eliminates the second step in the goodwill impairment test which requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. Instead, an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The standard, which should be applied prospectively, is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning on or after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. The standard requires a financial asset (including trade receivables) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Thus, the income statement will reflect the measurement of credit losses for newly-recognized financial assets as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

7.  BANK DEBT 

 

The Company entered into a Credit Agreement on June 1, 2017 with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as lender, which was subsequently amended in connection with funding the acquisition of CAD Enterprises, Inc. (“CAD”) on July 5, 2018 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement was amended on September 30, 2019 to expand the revolving loan amount from $12,000,000 to $20,000,000, subject to a borrowing base, and to extend the maturity of revolving facility from June 1, 2021 to June 1, 2024. The Credit Agreement was further amended on December 30, 2019 to eliminate the borrowing base. As amended, the Credit Agreement is comprised of a revolving facility in the amount of $20,000,000 and a term A loan in the amount of $6,000,000. Outstanding borrowings on the term A loan are payable in consecutive monthly installments, which currently amount to $111,111 per month.

 

The revolving facility under the Credit Agreement includes a $3 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit thereunder. Interest for borrowings under the revolving facility accrues at a per annum rate equal to Prime Rate or LIBOR plus applicable margins of (i) 0.25% for Prime Rate loans and (ii) 1.75% for LIBOR loans. The maturity date of the revolving facility is June 1, 2024. Interest for borrowings under the term A loan accrues at a per annum rate equal to Prime Rate or LIBOR plus applicable margins of (i) 0.25% for Prime Rate loans and (ii) 2.25% for LIBOR loans. The maturity date of the term A loan is December 1, 2022. The Credit Agreement includes a commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving facility of 0.25% per annum payable quarterly. The obligations of the Company and other borrowers under the Credit Agreement are secured by a blanket lien on all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement also includes customary representations and warranties and applicable reporting requirements and covenants. The financial covenants under the Credit Agreement include a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum senior funded debt to EBITDA ratio and a maximum total funded debt to EBITDA ratio.

8. NOTES PAYABLE 

 

Convertible Notes Payable

The Company converted all of the convertible notes payable in fiscal year 2019 and no longer is party to any agreements of this nature.

 

Notes Payable – Related Party

The Company has two separate outstanding promissory notes with First Francis Company Inc. (“First Francis”), which were originally issued in July 2016 in connection with the acquisition of Federal Hose Manufacturing (“Federal Hose”) and which were amended in July 2018 in connection with acquisition of CAD. The first promissory note was issued with original principal in the amount of $2,000,000, and the second was issued with original principal in the amount of $2,768,662. The promissory notes each have an interest rate of 6.25% per annum, which was increased from 4.0% per annum as part of the July 2018 amendments to the Credit Agreement. In addition, the promissory note with original principal amount of $2,768,662 was amended in July 2018 to provide for a conversion option commencing July 5, 2019 which allows First Francis to convert the promissory note, in whole in part with respect to a maximum amount of $648,000, into shares of the Company’s Class B common stock at the price of $6.48 per share (subject to adjustment), subject to shareholder approval which was obtained on May 10, 2019.  On July 9, 2019, First Francis exercised its option to convert $648,000 of existing indebtedness into 100,000 Class B Common Shares of the Company. First Francis is owned by Matthew Crawford, who serves on the Board of Directors of the Company, and Edward Crawford, who served on the Board of Directors of the Company until June 17, 2019.  

 

Notes Payable – Seller Note

Effective July 1, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of CAD.  Upon the closing of the transaction, the CAD shares were transferred and assigned to the Company in consideration of the payment by the Company of an aggregate purchase price of $21 million, $12 million of which was payable in cash at closing, with the remainder paid in the form of a subordinated promissory note issued by the Company in favor of a Seller (the “Seller Note), which is subject to certain post-closing adjustments based on working capital, indebtedness and selling expenses, as specified in the Share Purchase Agreement entered into in connection with the acquisition (the “Share Purchase Agreement”).   The Seller Note bears interest at a rate of four percent (4%) per annum and is payable in full no later than June 30, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”).  The Maturity Date, with respect to any then-outstanding portion of the original principal amount which is subject to an indemnification claim by the Company (asserted in accordance with the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement) pending as of the date thereof, will be automatically extended until such time as any claim relating to such disputed amount is no longer pending, pursuant to the terms of the Seller Note and subject to additional conditions set forth therein and in the Share Purchase Agreement. The Company is not permitted to prepay any amounts due and owing under the Seller Note.  Payment of the Seller Note is secured by a second-priority security interest in the assets of CAD.   Interest accrued on the original principal amount becomes due and payable in arrears beginning September 30, 2018, and subsequent interest is due on the first day of each calendar quarter thereafter up to and including June 30, 2019.  The Company is required to make quarterly principal payments, the amount of which will be calculated based on a four (4) year amortization schedule, beginning on September 30, 2019 and continuing on the last day of each calendar quarter thereafter up to and including the Maturity Date. The holders of the Seller Note and the Company agreed to defer the quarterly principal payment due June 30, 2020; quarterly interest was paid on the Seller Note.

Paycheck Protection Program Notes

On June 4, 2020, each of Federal Hose and CAD entered into unsecured loans with First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Lakewood, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), in the amounts of $253,071 and $1,200,766, respectively (the “PPP Loans”).

 

The PPP Loans each have a two-year term and bear interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments are deferred until seven months after the date of the loan, and will begin January 4, 2021, in monthly installments based on the principal balance of the PPP Loan outstanding following the deferral period and taking into consideration any remaining unforgiven portion of the PPP Loan. The PPP Loans may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The loans contain events of default and other provisions customary for a loan of this type. The PPP Loans may be partially or wholly forgiven if the funds are used for certain qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act. Federal Hose and CAD each intend to use their entire respective PPP Loan amounts for qualifying expenses and to apply for forgiveness of the loans in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. The PPP Loans may be forgivable, partially or in full, if certain conditions are met, principally based on having been disbursed for permissible purposes and on maintaining certain average levels of employment and payroll as required by the CARES Act. Federal Hose and CAD intend to use the loan proceeds only for permissible purposes, and as of June 30,2020 have used all proceeds from the PPP Loans to retain employees and maintain payroll; however, the Company can provide no assurances that the amounts borrowed by Federal Hose and CAD under the PPP Loans will be eligible for forgiveness, in whole or in part. The PPP Loans are unsecured and guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration.

12. SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION  

 

The Company operates three reportable business segments: (1) Aerospace Components, (2) Commercial Air Handling, (3) and Industrial Hose. The Company's management evaluates segment performance based primarily on operating income. Certain corporate costs are allocated to the segments and interest expense directly related to financing the acquisition of a business is allocated to that segment, respectively.  Intangible assets are allocated to each segment and the related amortization of these assets are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

Aerospace Components:
The Aerospace Components segment was added July 1, 2018, when the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of CAD Enterprises, Inc. in Phoenix, Arizona. This segment manufactures precision components primarily for customers in the aerospace industry.  This segment provides complete end-to-end engineering, machining, grinding, welding, brazing, heat treat and assembly solutions.  Utilizing state-of-the-art machining and welding technologies, this segment is an industry leader in providing complex components produced from nickel-based superalloys and stainless steels.  Our quality certifications include ISO 9001:2015/AS9100D, as well as Nadcap accreditation for Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection (FPI), Heat Treating/Braze, Non-Conventional Machining EDM, TIG/E-Beam welding.

 

Commercial Air Handling:
The Commercial Air Handling segment was added June 1, 2017, when the Company purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Air Enterprises Acquisition LLC in Akron, Ohio. The acquired business, which operates under the name Air Enterprises, is an industry leader in designing, manufacturing and installing large-scale commercial, institutional, and industrial custom air handling solutions. Its customers are typically in the health care, education, pharmaceutical and industrial manufacturing markets in the United States. This segment also sells to select international markets. The custom air handling units are constructed of non-corrosive aluminum, resulting in sustainable, long-lasting, and energy efficient solutions with life expectancies of 50 years or more. These products are distributed through a network of sales representatives, based on relationships with health care networks, building contractors and engineering firms. The custom air handling equipment is designed, manufactured and installed under the brand names FactoryBilt® and SiteBilt®. FactoryBilt® air handling solutions are designed, fabricated and assembled in a vertically integrated process entirely within the Akron, Ohio facility. SiteBilt® air handling solutions are designed and fabricated in Akron, but are then crated and shipped to the field and assembled on-site.

 

Industrial Hose: 

The Industrial Hose segment was added July 1, 2016, when the Company purchased the assets of the Federal Hose Manufacturing, LLC of Painesville, Ohio. This business segment includes the manufacture of flexible interlocking metal hoses and the distribution of silicone and hydraulic hoses.

13. UNCERTAINTIES

 

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic had a material adverse effect on the Company’s reported results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company will continue to actively monitor the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, which is expected to negatively impact the Company’s business and results of operations for the remainder of fiscal year 2020 and possibly beyond. The extent to which the Company’s business and operations will be impacted by the pandemic will depend largely on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the outbreak and actions by government authorities to contain the outbreak or treat its impact, among other things.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding of the Company's financial position at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic had a material adverse effect on the Company’s reported results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company will continue to actively monitor the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, which is expected to negatively impact the Company’s business and results of operations for the remainder of fiscal year 2020 and possibly beyond. Many of our customers are considered “essential” and have remained operational during the pandemic, although in some cases in a limited capacity. This, together with the overall economic downturn that has resulted from the pandemic, slowed demand in the second quarter and into the second half of 2020. Nearly all of the Company’s facilities have remained operational. While there are some restrictions to the supply of materials and products and those restrictions may continue or expand, our supply chain has remained largely intact.The extent to which the Company’s business and operations will continue to be impacted by the pandemic will depend largely on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the pandemic and actions by government authorities to contain the pandemic or treat its impact, among other things.

 

Items Affecting the Comparability of our Financial Results

Effective January 2, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of certain assets of MPI Products, Inc., (“MPI”). The results of this acquisition are reported under the Industrial Hose segment.

 

Effective April 19, 2019, the Company, completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Data Genomix, Inc., an Ohio corporation (“DG”). DG is in the business of developing and commercializing marketing and data analytic technology applications. The results of this acquisition are reported under the Corporate and Other segment.

 

Accordingly, in light of the timing of these transactions, the Company’s results for the quarter ended on June 30, 2020 include the added results of operations of MPI in the Industrial Hose segment and DG in the Corporate and Other segment. Conversely, our results for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 do not include the results of operation of MPI in the Industrial Hose segment.

 

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

Sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 (“current quarter”) were $18.6 million, a decrease of approximately $5.9 million or 24% from sales of $24.5 million during the same quarter of the prior year. This decrease in sales was primarily attributable to lower demand resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including temporary closures by certain customers.

 

Cost of sales for the current quarter was $15.1 million compared to $19.3 million, a decrease of $4.2 million or 22% from the same quarter of the prior year.  Gross profit was $0.5 million in the current quarter compared to $2.8 million, a decrease of $2.3 million from the same quarter of the prior year.  The decrease in cost of sales and gross profit was attributable lower sales resulting from decreased demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company took a number of steps to reduce costs during the quarter in response to lower sales levels, including staff reductions, shortened work weeks, and compensation decreases for certain salaried employees.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) in the current quarter were $3.0 million, compared to $2.4 million, in the same quarter of the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.6 million due the acquisition of MPI, which includes approximately $0.1 million of intangible amortization expense. In addition, stock compensation was approximately $0.2 million in the current quarter resulting from director stock awards that are typically granted during the first fiscal quarter. These expense increases were partially offset by the cost reduction actions taken during the quarter, as described above.

 

Interest charges in the current quarter were approximately $0.2 million compared to $0.3 million in the same quarter of the prior year. The interest expense decreased due to lower average interest rates on the Company’s floating rate bank debt. Average total debt (including notes) and average interest rates for the current quarter were $25.7 million and 3.4%, compared to $21.0 million and 4.6% in the same quarter of the prior year.

 

Other income, net was $12 thousand in the current quarter compared to $25 thousand other expense, net in the same quarter of the prior year.  Other (income) expense, net was comprised of rental income, gains and losses on the disposal of assets, legal settlements, acquisition expenditures and other miscellaneous charges.

 

Income tax expense in the current quarter was $0.1 million compared to $0.7 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Tax expense in the current quarter was recorded at the Company’s expected effective tax rate of 25%.

 

17

 

Net income in the current quarter was $0.2 million or $0.07 per diluted share as compared to the net income of $1.8 million or $0.57 per diluted share for the same quarter of the prior year.  

 

Results of Operations – Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

 

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (“current year to date”) were $43.9 million, a decrease of approximately $2.5 million or 5% from sales of $46.4 million during the same period of the prior year. This decrease in sales was primarily attributable to lower demand resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including temporary closures by certain customers.

 

Cost of sales for the current year to date was $34.2 million compared to $36.3 million, a decrease of $2.1 million or 6% from the same period of the prior year.  Gross profit was $9.7 million in the current year to date compared to $10.1 million, a decrease of $0.3 million from the same period of the prior year.  The decrease in cost of sales and gross profit was attributable lower sales resulting from decreased demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company took a number of steps during the second quarter to reduce costs in response to lower sales levels, including staff reductions, shortened work weeks, and compensation decreases for certain salaried employees.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) in the current year to date were $6.0 million, compared to $4.7 million, in the same period of the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.4 million due the acquisition of MPI, which includes approximately $0.2 million of intangible amortization expense. These expense increases were partially offset by the cost reduction actions taken during the quarter, as described above.

 

Interest charges in the current year to date were approximately $0.5 million compared to $0.6 million in the same period of the prior year. The interest expense decreased due to lower average interest rates on the Company’s floating rate bank debt. Average total debt (including notes) and average interest rates for the current year to date were $26.2 million and 3.5%, compared to $21.4 million and 4.4% in the same period of the prior year.

 

Other expense, net was $59 thousand in the current year to date compared to $2 thousand other expense, net in the same period of the prior year.  Other (income) expense, net was comprised of rental income, gains and losses on the disposal of assets, legal settlements, acquisition expenditures and other miscellaneous charges.

 

Income tax expense in the current year to date was $0.8 million compared to $1.2 million in the same period of the prior year. Tax expense in the current year to date is recorded at the Company’s expected effective tax rate of 25%.

 

Net income in the current year to date was $2.3 million or $0.69 per diluted share as compared to the net income of $3.6 million or $1.12 per diluted share for the same period of the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As described further in Note 11 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, effective January 2, 2020, the Company completed the MPI acquisition for a purchase price of $9.4 million cash, which is subject to certain post-closing adjustments based on working capital. 

 

The Company’s credit agreement, dated as of June 1, 2017, by and between the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as lender (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), provides availability under our revolving credit facility of $20 million, which matures June 1, 2024, of which approximately $12.3 million was outstanding at June 30, 2020. Management believes the amount of the revolving credit facility and the terms of the loan agreement provide the flexibility to fund acquisitions, working capital and other strategic initiatives. 

 

Total current assets at June 30, 2020 increased to $35.9 million from $27.0 million at December 31, 2019, an increase of $8.9 million. The increase in current assets is comprised of the following: an increase in cash of $4.7 million; an increase in inventory of $3.4 million; and an increase in contract assets of $2.3 million, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $1.5 million. Fluctuations in accounts receivable and costs and estimated earnings in excess of billing related to the Commercial Air Handling division are dependent upon progress billing milestones for contracts. The increase in inventory is related to the expansion of our Industrial Hose division through the acquisition of MPI. The Company is carrying higher cash balances due to the uncertainty of future economic conditions directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Total current liabilities at June 30, 2020 increased to $19.1 million from $16.3 million at December 31, 2019, an increase of $2.8 million.  The increase in current liabilities is comprised of the following: the increase in accounts payable of $3.2 million; and an increase in accrued expenses of $0.8 million, offset by a decrease in contract liabilities (included in the unearned revenue item on the balance sheet) $1.2 million. The increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses are primarily attributable to the Company’s extension of payment timeframes for certain payables and expenses.

 

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $5.8 million, compared to cash used by operating activities of $2.5 million in the same period a year ago. Cash used by operating activities for the current year is comprised of the following: net income of $2.3 million; adjustments for non-cash items of $1.5 million; and cash provided by working capital adjustments of $2.0 million. The primary drivers of increased working capital during the current year were the decrease in accounts receivable of $2.3 million and the increase in accounts payable of $2.4 million.

 

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of $9.6 million, compared to cash used in investing activities of $0.5 million in the same period a year ago. The increase in cash used in investing activities was largely due to the acquisition of MPI in the Industrial Hose segment and capital expenditures in the normal course of business.

 

Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $8.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to cash used by financing activities of $1.3 million in the same period a year ago. Cash provided by financing activities for the current year was primarily related to: $11.3 million borrowings on the revolving credit facility related to the acquisition of MPI and $1.5 million of borrowings under the PPP Loans described below; offset by cash used for $3.4 million in payments on bank debt; and $0.8 in payments on notes.

 

The Company is actively managing its business to maintain cash flow and liquidity. We believe that cash and availability on our revolving credit facility to be sufficient to fund working capital needs and service principal and interest payments due related to the bank debt and notes payable. The Company had $7.7 million available to borrow on the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2020. Notwithstanding the Company's expectations, if the Company's operating results decrease as the result of pressures on the business due to, for example, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, currency fluctuations, regulatory issues, or the Company's failure to execute its business plans, the Company may require additional financing, or may be unable to comply with its obligations under the credit facility, and its lenders could demand repayment of any amounts outstanding under the Company’s credit facility. As the company cannot predict the duration or scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company’s customers and suppliers, the negative financial impact to the Company’s results cannot be reasonably estimated, but could be material. In addition, see Note 7 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company applied for and was approved for a loan in the amount of $3,679,383 on April 10, 2020 pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”); however, on May 5, 2020, the Company opted to return all of the proceeds and repay the loan in full. On June 4, 2020, each of Federal Hose and CAD entered into unsecured loans with First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Lakewood, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the CARES Act, in the amounts of $253,071 and $1,200,766, respectively (the “PPP Loans”).

 

19

 

The PPP Loans each have a two-year term and bear interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments are deferred for six months after the date of disbursement, and will begin in January 4, 2021, in monthly installments based on the principal balance of the PPP Loan outstanding following the deferral period and taking into consideration any portion of the PPP Loan that may be forgiven prior to that time. The PPP Loans may be partially or wholly forgiven if the funds are used for certain qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act. Federal Hose and CAD each intend to use their entire respective PPP Loan amounts for qualifying expenses and to apply for forgiveness of the loans in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. The PPP Loans may be forgivable, partially or in full, if certain conditions are met, principally based on having been disbursed for permissible purposes and on maintaining certain average levels of employment and payroll as required by the CARES Act. Federal Hose and CAD each intend to use the loan proceeds only for permissible purposes, and to date have used all proceeds from the PPP Loans to retain employees and maintain payroll; however, the Company can provide no assurances that the amounts borrowed by Federal Hose and CAD under the PPP Loans will be eligible for forgiveness, in whole or in part. The PPP Loans are unsecured and guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration. See Note 8 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for a further description of the PPP Loans.

 

Due to the uncertainty of future economic conditions directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic, management has decided to carry higher cash balances and levels of liquidity, rather than focus on debt reduction goals. Management believes the Company has adequate liquidity for debt service, working capital, capital expenditures and other strategic initiatives. However, because the Company cannot predict the duration or scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company, the pandemic may adversely impact the Company’s available liquidity for debt service, working capital, or cause delay or curtailment of the Company’s planned capital expenditures or other strategic initiatives.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has secured performance and payment bonds in the amount of $8.2 million as surety on completion of the requirements of certain commercial air handling contracts. The Company has no other off-balance sheet arrangements (as defined in Regulation S-K Item 303 paragraph (a)(4)(ii)) that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s critical accounting policies are as presented in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discuss and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

As of June 30, 2020, an evaluation was performed, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer along with the Company's Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer along with the Company's Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") were effective as of June 30, 2020 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files and submits under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. 

 

At the time of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there were no material legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS. 

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the company’s operations and could have a material adverse effect on the company’s business, financial condition and liquidity. 

 

The Company’s business could be further materially and adversely affected by the outbreak of a widespread health epidemic. The present coronavirus (or COVID-19) pandemic has affected the Company’s operations including government authorities imposing mandatory closures, work-from-home orders and social distancing protocols, and imposing other restrictions that could materially adversely affect the Company’s ability to maintain its operations. Specifically, the Company may experience, in the future, temporary facility closures in response to government mandates in certain jurisdictions in which the Company operates and in response to positive diagnoses for COVID-19 in certain facilities for the safety of the Company’s employees. The COVID-19 outbreak could also disrupt the Company’s supply chain and may materially adversely impact its ability to secure supplies for its facilities, which could materially adversely affect the Company’s operations. There may also be long-term effects on the Company’s customers in and the economies of affected countries.

 

New and changing government actions to address the COVID-19 pandemic continue to occur on a regular basis. As a result, the jurisdictions in which the Company’s products are manufactured and distributed are in varying stages of restrictions. Certain jurisdictions have had to re-establish restrictions due to a resurgence in COVID-19 cases. Additionally, although the operations of many of the company’s customers have begun to be restored or increased, such operations may be forced to be limited or closed as any new COVID-19 outbreaks occur. Even as government restrictions are lifted and economies gradually reopen, the shape of the economic recovery is uncertain and may continue to negatively impact the Company's results of operations, cash flows and financial position in subsequent quarters. Given this current level of economic and operational uncertainty over the impacts of COVID-19, the ultimate financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic and similar issues in the future could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to operate, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. In addition, preventive measures the Company may voluntarily put in place, may have a material adverse effect on its business for an indefinite period of time, such as the potential shut down of certain locations, decreased employee availability, potential border closures and others. The Company’s suppliers and customers may also face these and other challenges, which could lead to disruption in the company’s supply chain, as well as decreased customer demand for the company’s products. These issues may also materially affect the Company’s future access to its sources of liquidity, particularly its cash flows from operations, financial condition and capitalization. Although these disruptions may continue to occur, the long-term economic impact and near-term financial impacts of such issues, may not be reasonably estimated due to the uncertainty of future developments.

 

In addition to the foregoing risk factor and the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and Part II, Item 1A of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020.
