CURTISS-WRIGHT CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARIES

(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Curtiss-Wright Corporation along with its subsidiaries (we, the Corporation, or the Company) is a global integrated business that provides highly engineered products, solutions, and services mainly to aerospace & defense (A&D) markets, as well as critical technologies in demanding commercial power, process, and industrial markets.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Curtiss-Wright and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements.
Management is required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the accompanying financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The most significant of these estimates includes the estimate of costs to complete using the over-time revenue recognition accounting method, pension plan and postretirement obligation assumptions, estimates for inventory obsolescence, fair value estimates around assets and assumed liabilities from acquisitions, estimates for the valuation and useful lives of intangible assets, legal reserves, and the estimate of future environmental costs. Changes in estimates of contract sales, costs, and profits are recognized using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting. This method recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods. Accordingly, the effect of the changes on future periods of contract performance is recognized as if the revised estimate had been the original estimate. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no significant changes in estimated contract costs. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these financial statements.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or of the operating results for a full year.
2. REVENUE
The Corporation recognizes revenue when control of a promised good and/or service is transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Corporation expects to be entitled to in exchange for that good and/or service.
Performance Obligations
The Corporation identifies a performance obligation for each promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. As part of its assessment, the Corporation considers all goods and/or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The Corporation’s contracts may contain either a single performance obligation, including the promise to transfer individual goods or services that are not separately distinct within the context of the respective contracts, or multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Corporation allocates the overall transaction price to each performance obligation using standalone selling prices, where available, or utilizes estimates for each distinct good or service in the contract where standalone prices are not available.
The Corporation’s performance obligations are satisfied either at a point-in-time or on an over-time basis. Typically, over-time revenue recognition is based on the utilization of an input measure used to measure progress, such as costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs. If a performance obligation does not qualify for over-time revenue recognition, revenue is then recognized at the point-in-time in which control of the distinct good or service is transferred to the customer, typically based upon the terms of delivery.
The following table illustrates the approximate percentage of revenue recognized for performance obligations satisfied over-time versus at a point-in-time for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Contract backlog represents the remaining performance obligations that have not yet been recognized as revenue. Backlog includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Total backlog was approximately $2.8 billion as of June 30, 2023, of which the Corporation expects to recognize approximately 90% as net sales over the next 36 months. The remainder will be recognized thereafter.
Disaggregation of Revenue

Contract Balances
Timing of revenue recognition and cash collection may result in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Corporation’s contract assets primarily relate to its rights to consideration for work completed but not billed as of the reporting date. Contract assets are transferred to billed receivables when the rights to consideration become unconditional. This is typical in situations where amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms or upon achievement of contractual milestones. The Corporation’s contract liabilities primarily consist of customer advances received prior to revenue being earned. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 included in the contract liabilities balance as of January 1, 2023 was approximately $58 million and $147 million, respectively. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 included in the contract liabilities balance as of January 1, 2022 was approximately $56 million and $135 million, respectively. Contract assets and contract liabilities are reported in the "Receivables, net" and "Deferred revenue" lines, respectively, within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
3. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
In January 2022, the Corporation completed the sale of its industrial valve business in Germany for gross cash proceeds of $3 million. The Corporation recorded a loss of $5 million upon sale closing during the first quarter of 2022.

8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Forward Foreign Exchange and Currency Option Contracts
The Corporation has foreign currency exposure primarily in the United Kingdom, Europe, and Canada. The Corporation uses financial instruments, such as forward and option contracts, to hedge a portion of existing and anticipated foreign currency denominated transactions. The purpose of the Corporation’s foreign currency risk management program is to reduce volatility in earnings caused by exchange rate fluctuations. Guidance on accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities requires companies to recognize all of the derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets based upon quoted market prices for comparable instruments.
Interest Rate Risks and Related Strategies
The Corporation’s primary interest rate exposure results from changes in U.S. dollar interest rates. The Corporation’s policy is to manage interest cost using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt.
Effects on Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair values of the asset and liability derivative instruments were immaterial.
Effects on Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings
Undesignated hedges
The gains and losses on forward exchange derivative contracts not designated for hedge accounting are recognized to general and administrative expenses within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The gains for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $3 million and $6 million, respectively. The losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were $5 million and $6 million, respectfully.

Debt
The estimated fair value amounts were determined by the Corporation using available market information that is primarily based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issuances as of June 30, 2023. Accordingly, all of the Corporation’s debt is valued as a Level 2 financial instrument. The fair values described below may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, the use of different methodologies to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

NOTES to CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized settlement charges related to the retirement of former executives. The settlement charges represent events that are accounted for under guidance on employers’ accounting for settlements and curtailments of defined benefit pension plans.
Defined Contribution Retirement Plan
The Company also maintains a defined contribution plan for all non-union employees who are not currently receiving final or career average pay benefits for its U.S. subsidiaries. The employer contributions include both employer match and non-elective contribution components up to a maximum employer contribution of 7% of eligible compensation. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the expense relating to the plan was $6.1 million and $12.2 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the expense relating to the plan was $4.6 million and $10.3 million, respectively.
10. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Diluted earnings per share was computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares. A reconciliation of basic to diluted shares used in the earnings per share calculation is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended |
| June 30, | | June 30, |
(In thousands) | 2023 | | 2022 | | 2023 | | 2022 |

Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding | 38,555 | | | 38,654 | | | 38,528 | | | 38,657 | |
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, approximately 20,000 and 22,000 shares, respectively, issuable under equity-based awards were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive based on the average stock price during the period. There were approximately 37,000 and 31,000 anti-dilutive equity-based awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
11. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Corporation’s measure of segment profit or loss is operating income. Interest expense and income taxes are not reported on an operating segment basis as they are not considered in the segments’ performance evaluation by the Corporation’s chief operating decision-maker, its Chief Executive Officer.

13. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS
From time to time, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to asbestos and environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues, commercial or contractual disputes, and acquisitions or divestitures. The Corporation continues to defend vigorously against all claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as current accruals and insurance coverage, the Corporation does not expect that such legal proceedings will have a material adverse impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Legal Proceedings
The Corporation has been named in a number of lawsuits that allege injury from exposure to asbestos. To date, the Corporation has not been found liable for or paid any material sum of money in settlement in any asbestos-related case. The Corporation believes its minimal use of asbestos in its past operations as well as its acquired businesses’ operations and the relatively non-friable condition of asbestos in its historical products makes it unlikely that it will face material liability in any asbestos litigation, whether individually or in the aggregate. The Corporation maintains insurance coverage and indemnification agreements for these potential liabilities and believes adequate coverage exists to cover any unanticipated asbestos liability.
Letters of Credit and Other Financial Arrangements
The Corporation enters into standby letters of credit agreements and guarantees with financial institutions and customers primarily relating to guarantees of repayment, future performance on certain contracts to provide products and services, and to secure advance payments from certain international customers. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were $21 million and $17 million of stand-by letters of credit outstanding, respectively, and $14 million and $3 million of bank guarantees outstanding, respectively. In addition, the Corporation is required to provide the Nuclear Regulatory Commission financial assurance demonstrating its ability to cover the cost of decommissioning its Cheswick, Pennsylvania facility upon closure, though the Corporation does not intend to close this facility. The Corporation has provided this financial assurance in the form of a $35 million surety bond.
AP1000 Program
In February 2022, the Corporation and Westinghouse Electric Company (WEC) executed a settlement agreement to resolve all open claims and counterclaims under the AP1000 U.S. and China contracts. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Corporation paid WEC $15 million in the first quarter of 2022 and a final amount of $10 million in the first quarter of 2023 in exchange for the Corporation’s full release from all open claims under such contracts, whether known or unknown, as well as negotiating and executing a right of first refusal for all future AP1000 projects.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS of
FINANCIAL CONDITION and RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued
COMPANY ORGANIZATION
Curtiss-Wright Corporation along with its subsidiaries is a global integrated business that provides highly engineered products, solutions, and services mainly to aerospace & defense markets, as well as critical technologies in demanding commercial power, process, and industrial markets. We report our operations through our Aerospace & Industrial, Defense Electronics, and Naval & Power segments. We operate across a diversified array of niche markets through engineering and technological leadership, precision manufacturing, and strong relationships with our customers. Approximately 67% of our 2023 revenues are expected to be generated from A&D-related markets.
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 the results of operations and financial condition of the Corporation for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023. The financial information as of June 30, 2023 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 contained in our Form 10-K.
The MD&A is organized into the following sections: Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Results by Business Segment, and Liquidity and Capital Resources. Our discussion will be focused on the overall results of operations followed by a more detailed discussion of those results within each of our reportable segments.
Our three reportable segments are generally concentrated in a few end markets; however, each may have sales across several end markets. An end market is defined as an area of demand for products and services. The sales for the relevant markets will be discussed throughout the MD&A.
Analytical Definitions
Throughout management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, the terms “incremental” and “organic” are used to explain changes from period to period. The term “incremental” is used to highlight the impact that acquisitions and divestitures had on the current year results. The results of operations for acquisitions are incremental for the first twelve months from the date of acquisition. The definition of “organic” excludes the loss from sale of our industrial valves business in Germany as well as the effects of foreign currency translation.

Operating income in the second quarter increased $15 million, or 15%, to $113 million, while operating margin decreased 10 basis points to 16.0% compared with the same period in 2022. Operating income and operating margin in the Defense Electronics segment benefited from favorable overhead absorption on higher sales. In the Aerospace & Industrial segment, favorable overhead absorption on higher sales was partially offset by unfavorable mix on actuation and sensors products. In the Naval & Power segment, both operating income and operating margin decreased, as favorable overhead absorption on higher sales was more than offset by unfavorable product mix as well as first year purchase accounting costs from our arresting systems acquisition.
Operating income during the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $33 million, or 21%, to $191 million, and operating margin increased 70 basis points to 14.3%, compared with the same period in 2022. In the Defense Electronics segment, increases in operating income and operating margin were primarily due to favorable overhead absorption on higher sales, partially offset by unfavorable mix on defense electronics products. Operating income and operating margin in the Aerospace & Industrial segment increased primarily due to favorable overhead absorption on higher sales, partially offset by unfavorable mix on actuation and sensors products. In the Naval & Power segment, operating income benefited from the absence of a prior year loss on sale of our industrial valves business in Germany, as well as favorable overhead absorption on higher organic sales. These increases were partially offset by unfavorable product mix as well as first year purchase accounting costs from our arresting systems acquisition.
Non-segment operating expense in the second quarter increased $4 million, or 46%, to $13 million, primarily due to higher foreign currency losses in the current period. Non-segment operating expense during the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased $2 million, or 7%, to $22 million, as the absence of costs associated with shareholder activism recorded in the prior year period was partially offset by higher foreign currency losses in the current period.
Interest expense in the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $5 million, or 53%, to $15 million and $9 million, or 45%, to $28 million, respectively, primarily due to the issuance of $300 million Senior Notes in October 2022 as well as higher interest rates in the current period under our revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement” or “credit facility”).
Other income, net in the second quarter increased $3 million, or 75%, to $8 million. Other income, net during the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $8 million, or 108%, to $16 million. Increases in both periods were primarily due to lower overall pension costs against the comparable prior year periods.
The effective tax rate of 23.4% in the second quarter decreased compared to an effective tax rate of 23.7% in the prior year period, primarily due to lower expected executive compensation adjustments in the current period. The effective tax rate of 23.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased as compared to an effective tax rate of 24.0%, primarily due to lower expected executive compensation adjustments and higher stock compensation benefits in the current period.
Comprehensive income in the second quarter was $100 million, compared to comprehensive income of $35 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily due to the following:
•Foreign currency translation adjustments in the second quarter resulted in a $19 million comprehensive gain, compared to a $40 million comprehensive loss in the prior year period. The comprehensive gain during the current period was primarily attributed to increases in the British Pound.
•Net earnings increased $10 million, primarily due to higher operating income and other income, net.
Comprehensive income during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $171 million, compared to comprehensive income of $74 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily due to the following:
•Foreign currency translation adjustments for the six months ended June 30, 2023 resulted in a $34 million comprehensive gain, compared to a $47 million comprehensive loss in the prior period. The comprehensive gain during the current period was primarily attributed to increases in the British Pound.
•Net earnings increased $26 million, primarily due to higher operating income and other income, net.
New orders in the second quarter increased $65 million from the comparable prior year period, primarily due to the incremental impact from our arresting systems acquisition, an increase in orders for nuclear aftermarket products and services,
