In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company's results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year, which ends March 31, 2024 ("fiscal 2024").

NOTE 2 – ACQUISITION:

On November 9, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of P3, a privately-owned custom turbomachinery engineering, product development, and manufacturing business located in Jupiter, Florida that serves the space, new energy and medical industries. The Company believes this acquisition furthers its growth strategy, further diversifies its market and product offerings, and broadens its turbomachinery solutions. P3 will be managed through the Company's Barber-Nichols, LLC ("BN") subsidiary and is highly complementary to BN's technology and enhances its turbomachinery solutions.

This transaction was accounted for as a business combination which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair value as of the acquisition date. The purchase price of $10,494 was comprised of 125 shares of the Company's common stock, representing a value of $2,117 at a price of $16.85 per share, and cash consideration of $7,098, subject to certain potential adjustments, including a customary working capital adjustment. As of December 31, 2023, there was a $761 receivable accrued related to such working capital adjustment. The cash consideration was funded through borrowings on the Company's line of credit. The purchase agreement included a contingent earn-out dependent upon certain financial measures of P3 post-acquisition, in which the sellers are eligible to receive up to $3,000 in additional cash consideration. At December 31, 2023, a liability of $2,040 was recorded for the contingent earn-out. Acquisition related costs of $274 were expensed in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The cost of the acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition and the amount exceeding the fair value of $1,565 was recorded as goodwill, which is deductible for tax purposes. The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

The fair value of acquisition-related intangible assets includes customer relationships, technology and technical know-how, and tradename. The tradename is included in the line item "Other intangible assets, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of customer relationships was calculated using an income approach, specifically the Multi Period Excess Earnings method, which incorporates assumptions regarding retention rate, new customer growth and customer related costs. The fair value of tradename and technology and technical know-how were both calculated using a Relief from Royalty method, which develops a market based royalty rate used to reflect the after tax royalty savings attributable to owning the intangible asset.

Customer relationships and tradename are amortized in selling, general and administrative expense on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of eight years and three years respectively. Technology and technical know-how is amortized in cost of products sold on a straight line basis over its estimated useful life of ten years.

The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 includes net sales of P3 of $1,027 and net income of $176.

NOTE 3 – REVENUE RECOGNITION:

The Company recognizes revenue on contracts when or as it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. For contracts in which revenue is recognized upon shipment, control is generally transferred when products are shipped, title is transferred, significant risks of ownership have transferred, the Company has rights to payment, and rewards of ownership pass to the customer. For contracts in which revenue is recognized over time, control is generally transferred as the Company creates an asset that does not have an alternative use to the Company and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for the performance completed to date.

A performance obligation represents a promise in a contract to provide a distinct good or service to a customer. The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. Transaction price reflects the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferred products. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and revenue is recognized as the performance obligation is satisfied. In certain cases, the Company may separate a contract into more than one performance obligation, while in other cases, several products may be part of a fully integrated solution and are bundled into a single performance obligation. If a contract is separated into more than one performance obligation, the Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods underlying each performance obligation. The Company has made an accounting policy election to exclude from the measurement of the contract price all taxes assessed by government authorities that are collected by the Company from its customers. The Company does not adjust the contract price for the effects of a financing component if the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when a product is transferred to a customer and when the customer pays for the product will be one year or less. Shipping and handling fees billed to the customer are recorded in revenue and the related costs incurred for shipping and handling are included in cost of products sold.

The Company recognizes revenue over time when contract performance results in the creation of a product for which the Company does not have an alternative use and the contract includes an enforceable right to payment in an amount that corresponds directly with the value of the performance completed. To measure progress towards completion on performance obligations for which revenue is recognized over time the Company utilizes an input method based upon a ratio of direct labor hours incurred to date to management’s estimate of the total labor hours to be incurred on each contract, an input method based upon a ratio of total contract costs incurred to date to management’s estimate of the total contract costs to be incurred or an output method based upon completion of operational milestones, depending upon the nature of the contract. The Company has established the systems and procedures essential to developing the estimates required to account for performance obligations over time. These procedures include monthly review by management of costs incurred, progress towards completion, identified risks and opportunities, sourcing determinations, changes in estimates of costs yet to be incurred, availability of materials, and execution by subcontractors. Sales and earnings are adjusted in current accounting periods based on revisions in the contract value due to pricing changes and estimated costs at completion. Losses on contracts are

12


 

recognized immediately when evident to management. Revenue on the majority of the Company’s contracts, as measured by number of contracts, is recognized upon shipment to the customer. Revenue on larger contracts, which are fewer in number but represent the majority of revenue, is recognized over time. The following table presents the Company's revenue percentages disaggregated by revenue recognized over time or upon shipment:

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections affect trade accounts receivable, unbilled revenue (contract assets) and customer deposits (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unbilled revenue represents revenue on contracts that is recognized over time and exceeds the amount that has been billed to the customer. Unbilled revenue is separately presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company may have an unconditional right to payment upon billing and prior to satisfying the performance obligations. The Company will then record a contract liability and an offsetting asset of equal amount until the deposit is collected and the performance obligations are satisfied. Customer deposits are separately presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Customer deposits are not considered a significant financing component as they are generally received less than one year before the product is completed or used to procure specific material on a contract, as well as related overhead costs incurred during design and construction.

Net contract assets (liabilities) consisted of the following:

Contract liabilities at December 31, and March 31, 2023 include $13,337 and $6,092, respectively, of customer deposits for which the Company has an unconditional right to collect payment. Trade accounts receivable, as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, includes corresponding balances at December 31, and March 31, 2023, respectively.

Receivables billed but not paid under retainage provisions in the Company’s customer contracts were $2,992 and $2,542 at December 31, and March 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company’s remaining unsatisfied performance obligations represent a measure of the total dollar value of work to be performed on contracts awarded and in progress. The Company also refers to this measure as backlog. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had remaining unsatisfied performance obligations of $399,244. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 40% of the remaining performance obligations within one year, 25% to 30% in one to two years and the remaining beyond two years.

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

The Company has been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos allegedly contained in, or accompanying, products made by the Company. The Company is a co-defendant with numerous other defendants in these lawsuits and intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims. The claims in the Company’s current lawsuits are similar to those made in previous asbestos-related suits that named the Company as a defendant, which either were dismissed when it was shown that the Company had not supplied products to the plaintiffs’ places of work or were settled for immaterial amounts. The Company cannot provide any assurances that any pending or future matters will be resolved in the same manner as previous lawsuits.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, with the assistance of external counsel and forensic professionals, concluded an investigation into a whistleblower complaint received regarding Graham India Private Limited ("GIPL"). The investigation identified both evidence supporting the complaint and other misconduct by employees. The other misconduct totaled $150 over a period of four years and was isolated to GIPL. All involved employees have been terminated and the Company has implemented remedial actions, including strengthening its compliance program and internal controls. As a result of the investigation, during the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the statutory auditor and bookkeeper of GIPL tendered their resignations and new firms were appointed. The Company has voluntarily reported the findings of its investigation to the appropriate authorities in India and the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the resolutions of these matters are inherently uncertain, we do not believe any remaining impact will be material to the Company’s overall consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. For the first nine months of fiscal 2024 the Company has incurred approximately $750 in costs related to this investigation.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company was subject to the claims noted above, as well as other legal proceedings and potential claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of the lawsuits, legal proceedings or potential claims to which the Company is, or may become, a party to cannot be determined and an estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss cannot be made for the majority of the claims, management does not believe that the outcomes, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The Company previously entered into related party operating leases with Ascent Properties Group, LLC ("Ascent"), for two building lease agreements and two equipment lease agreements in Arvada, Colorado. In connection with such leases, the Company made fixed minimum lease payments to the lessor of $243 and $211 during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $709 and $632 during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company is obligated to make payments of $243 during the remainder of fiscal 2024. Future fixed minimum lease payments under these leases as of December 31, 2023 are $6,028.

 

 

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES:

The Company files federal and state income tax returns in several domestic and international jurisdictions. In most tax jurisdictions, returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities for a number of years after the returns have been filed. The Company is subject to U.S. federal examination for the tax years 2019 through 2022 and examination in state tax jurisdictions for the tax years 2018 through 2022. The Company is subject to examination in the People’s Republic of China for tax years 2019 through 2022 and in India for tax years 2019 through 2022.

There was no liability for unrecognized tax benefits at either December 31, 2023 or March 31, 2023.

NOTE 13 – DEBT:

On October 13, 2023, the Company terminated its revolving credit facility and repaid its term loan with Bank of America and entered into a new five-year revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("Wells Fargo") that provides a $35,000 line of credit and automatically increases to $50,000 upon the Company satisfying specified covenants (the "New Revolving Credit Facility"). The additional $15,000 will automatically be available upon (a) the Company achieving a minimum consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the agreement, of $15,000, computed on a trailing twelve month basis, for three consecutive quarters and (b) a minimum liquidity (consisting of cash and borrowing availability under the New Revolving Credit Facility) for the Company of at least $7,500. The New Revolving Credit Facility has a $25,000 sub-limit for letters of credit and the Company may request the issuance of cash secured letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $7,500. As of December 31, 2023, there was $3,000 borrowed and $666 letters of credit outstanding on the New Revolving Credit Facility.

The New Revolving Credit Facility contains customary terms and conditions, including representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, as well as financial covenants for the benefit of Wells Fargo, which require the Company to maintain (i) a consolidated total leverage ratio not to exceed 3.50:1.00 and (ii) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.20:1.00, in both cases computed in accordance with the definitions and requirements specified in the New Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of the New Revolving Credit Facility.

Borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (i) a forward-looking term rate based on the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") for the applicable interest period, subject to a floor of 0.0% per annum or (ii) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the rate of interest per annum publicly announced by the Lender as its prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum and (c) one-month term SOFR plus 1.00% per annum, subject to a floor of 1.00% per annum, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margins range between (i) 1.25% per annum and 2.50% per annum in the case of any term SOFR loan and (ii) 0.25% per annum and 1.50% per annum in the case of any base rate loan, in each case based upon the Company’s then-current consolidated total leverage ratio; provided, however, for a period of one year following the closing date, the applicable margin shall be set at 1.25% per annum in the case of any term SOFR loan and 0.25% per annum in the case of any base rate loan. As of December 31, 2023, the SOFR rate was 5.34%.

The Company is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the New Revolving Credit Facility during the applicable quarter at a per annum rate also determined by reference to the Company’s then-current consolidated total leverage ratio, which fee ranges between 0.10% per annum and 0.20% per annum; provided, however, for a period of one year following the closing date, the quarterly commitment fee will be set at 0.10% per annum. Any outstanding letters of credit that are cash secured will bear a fee equal to the daily amount available to be drawn under such letters of credit multiplied by 0.65% per annum. Any outstanding letters of credit issued under the New Revolving Credit Facility will bear a fee equal to the daily amount drawn under such letters of credit multiplied by the applicable margin for term SOFR loans. As of December 31, 2023, the amount available under the New Revolving Credit Facility was $31,333, subject to the interest and leverage covenants.

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

(Dollar and share amounts in thousands, except per share data)

 

Overview

We are a global leader in the design and manufacture of mission critical fluid, power, heat transfer and vacuum technologies for the defense, space, energy and process industries. We design and manufacture custom-engineered vacuum, heat transfer, pump and turbomachinery technologies. For the defense industry, our equipment is used in nuclear and non-nuclear propulsion, power, fluid transfer, and thermal management systems. For the space industry, our equipment is used in propulsion, power and energy management systems and for life support systems. We supply equipment for vacuum, heat transfer and fluid transfer applications used in energy and new energy markets including oil refining, cogeneration, and multiple alternative and clean power applications including hydrogen. For the chemical and petrochemical industries, our equipment is used in fertilizer, ammonia, ethylene, methanol and downstream chemical facilities.

Our brands are built upon our engineering expertise and close customer collaboration to design, develop, and produce mission critical equipment and systems that enable our customers to meet their economic and operational objectives. Continual improvement of our processes and systems to ensure qualified and compliant equipment are hallmarks of our brand. Our early engagement with customers and support until the end of service life are values upon which our brands are built.

Our corporate headquarters is located with our production facilities in Batavia, New York, where surface condensers and ejectors are designed, engineered, and manufactured. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Barber-Nichols, LLC ("BN"), based in Arvada, Colorado, designs, develops, manufactures and sells specialty turbomachinery products for the space, aerospace, cryogenic, defense and energy markets. In November 2023, we acquired P3 Technologies, LLC ("P3"), located in Jupiter, Florida (See "Acquisition" below). We also have wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries, Graham Vacuum and Heat Transfer Technology Co., Ltd. ("GVHTT"), located in Suzhou, China and Graham India Private Limited ("GIPL"), located in Ahmedabad, India. GVHTT provides sales and engineering support for us throughout Southeast Asia. GIPL serves as a sales and market development office focusing on the refining, petrochemical, edible oils, and fertilizer markets in India and the Middle East.

We refer to our fiscal year, which ends March 31, 2024, as fiscal 2024. Likewise, we refer to our fiscal year that ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, as fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022, respectively.

 

Acquisition

On November 9, 2023, we completed our acquisition of P3, a privately-owned custom turbomachinery engineering, product development, and manufacturing business located in Jupiter, Florida that serves the space, new energy and medical industries. We believe this acquisition furthers our growth strategy, further diversifies our market and product offerings, and broadens our turbomachinery solutions. P3 will be managed through BN and is highly complementary to BN's technology and enhances its turbomachinery solutions.

The purchase price for P3 was $10,494 and was comprised of 125 shares of our common stock, representing a value of $2,117 at a price of $16.85 per share, and cash consideration of $7,098, subject to certain potential adjustments, including a customary working capital adjustment. The cash consideration was funded through borrowings on our line of credit. The purchase agreement included a contingent earn-out dependent upon certain financial measures of P3 post-acquisition, in which the sellers are eligible to receive up to $3,000 in additional cash consideration. Acquisition related costs of $274 were expensed in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. See Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

 

Summary

Highlights for the three months ended December 31, 2023 include:

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were $43,818, up $3,945, or 10% compared with $39,873 for the third quarter of fiscal 2023. During the quarter, P3 added $1,027 to revenue primarily to the space industry. Excluding P3, organic growth was 7% over the prior year. This increase was primarily due to sales to the defense industry, which increased $2,643 versus the prior year period primarily due to an improved mix of higher margin defense projects, increased direct labor, better execution, the timing of material receipts, and improved pricing. Net sales for the quarter also benefited from continued growth in commercial aftermarket sales of approximately $3,000 in comparison to the prior year period, which is included in our refining and chemical/petrochemical markets. Partially offsetting these increases was a $579 decline in space sales primarily due to the timing of projects, as well as the loss of Virgin Orbit Holding, Inc. ("Virgin Orbit") as a customer in April 2023 due to its Chapter 11 bankruptcy partially offset by revenue from P3.

In connection with the acquisition of BN, we entered into a Performance Bonus Agreement to provide employees of BN with a supplemental performance-based award based on the achievement of BN performance objectives for fiscal years ending March 31, 2024, 2025, and 2026 which can range between $2,000 to $4,000 per year (the "BN Performance Bonus"). During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, we recorded $1,264 related to the BN Performance Bonus. Additionally, during the third quarter of fiscal 2024 we recorded costs/charges in connection with the refinancing of our debt and acquisition of P3 of $744 and $274, respectively.
Net income and income per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were $165 and $0.02 per share, respectively, compared with net income and income per diluted share of $368 and $0.03 per share, respectively, for the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were $2,424 and $0.22 per share, respectively, compared with adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share of $857 and $0.08 per share, respectively, for the third quarter of fiscal 2023. See "Non-GAAP Measures" below for a reconciliation of adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share to the comparable GAAP amount.
Orders booked in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were a record $123,267 compared to $20,044 in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. This increase was primarily due to follow-on orders for critical U.S. Navy programs related to the Columbia Class submarine and Ford Class carrier programs. These defense orders are expected to be recognized in revenue beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 through early 2030 and validates our key role in these strategic programs. For additional information on this key performance indicator, see "Orders and Backlog" below.
Backlog was $399,244 at December 31, 2023, compared with $293,671 at December 31, 2022. This increase was primarily driven by growth in our defense and chemical/petrochemical markets. Backlog acquired from P3 Technologies was $6,225. during the third quarter of fiscal 2024. For additional information on this key performance indicator see "Orders and Backlog" below.
Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2023 was $15,163, compared with $18,257 at March 31, 2023. This decrease was primarily due to cash used to acquire P3 of $6,812, capital expenditures of $5,193 related to our growth initiatives, as well as net repayments of debt of $9,522. These uses of cash were primarily funded by cash flow from operating activities of $19,483 being driven by higher profitability and a reduction in working capital as a result of the change in payment terms related to large defense customers during the nine months and stronger financial discipline.
On October 13, 2023, we entered into a new, five-year $50,000 revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("Wells Fargo") of which $35,000 is immediately available. We used the proceeds from the facility and cash on hand to pay down the remaining $11,500 balance of our term loan. The new facility will reduce current borrowing rates by approximately 25 basis points to SOFR plus 1.25%, has a maximum total leverage ratio of 3.5 to 1, and provides us greater financial flexibility to execute on our strategy for growth.

Current Market Conditions

Demand for our equipment and systems for the defense industry is expected to remain strong and continue to expand, based on defense budget plans, accelerated ship build schedules due to geopolitical tensions, the projected build schedule of submarines, aircraft carriers and undersea propulsion and power systems and the solutions we provide. In addition to U.S. Navy applications, we also provide specialty pumps, turbines, compressors and controllers for various fluid and thermal management systems used in Department of Defense radar, laser, electronics and power systems. We have built a leading position, and in some instances a sole source position, for certain systems and equipment for the defense industry.

Our traditional energy markets are undergoing significant transition. While we expect that fossil fuels will continue to be an important component in the global energy industry for many years to come, there are significant changes in the priorities for capital investments by our customers and the regions in which those investments are being made. We expect that the systemic changes in the energy markets, which are influenced by the increasing use by consumers of alternative fuels and government policies to stimulate their usage, will lead to demand growth for fossil-based fuels that is less than the global growth rate. The timing and catalyst for a recovery in this market remains uncertain. Accordingly, we believe that in the near term the quantity of projects available for us to compete for will remain low and that new project pricing will remain challenging.

 

Of note, over the last few years we have experienced an increase in our energy and chemical aftermarket orders, primarily from the domestic market. Aftermarket orders have historically been a leading indicator of future capital investment by our customers in their facilities for upgrades and expansions. However, if a capital investment upturn were to occur, we do not expect the next cycle to be as robust as years past due to the factors discussed above.

The alternative and clean energy opportunities for our heat transfer, power production and fluid transfer systems are expected to continue to grow. We assist in designing, developing and producing equipment for hydrogen production, distribution and fueling systems, concentrated solar power and storage, small modular nuclear systems, bioenergy products, and geothermal power generation with lithium extraction. We are positioning the Company to be a more significant contributor as these markets continue to develop.

We believe that chemical and petrochemical capital investment will continue to decouple from energy investment. Over the long term, we expect that population growth, an expanding global middle class, and an increasing desire for improved quality of life and access to consumer products will drive increased demand for industrial goods within the plastics and resins value chain along with fertilizers and related products. As such, we expect investment in new global chemical and petrochemical capacity will improve and drive growth in demand for our products and services.

Our turbomachinery, pumps and cryogenic products and market access provide revenue and growth potential in the commercial space/aerospace markets. The commercial space market has grown and evolved rapidly, and we provide rocket engine turbo pump systems and components to many of the launch providers for satellites. We expect that in the long term, extended space exploration will become more prevalent, and we anticipate that our thermal/fluid management and environmental control and life support system turbomachinery will play important roles. We are also participating in future aerospace power and propulsion system development through supply of fluid and thermal management systems components. Small power dense systems are imperative for these applications, and we believe our technology and expertise will enable us to achieve sales growth in this market as well. Sales and orders to the space industry are variable in nature and many of our customers, who are key players in the industry, have yet to achieve profitability and may be unable to continue operations without additional funding, similar to what occurred to Virgin Orbit. Thus, future revenue and growth in this market can be uncertain and may negatively impact our business.

As illustrated below, we have succeeded over the last several years with our strategy to increase our participation in the defense market as opportunities in our legacy refining and petrochemical markets diminished. The defense market comprised 84% of our total backlog at December 31, 2023.

Third Quarter and First Nine Months of Fiscal 2024 Compared with the Third Quarter and First Nine Months of Fiscal 2023

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were $43,818, up $3,945 or 10%, compared with $39,873 for the third quarter of fiscal 2023. During the quarter, P3 added $1,027 to revenue primarily to the space industry. Excluding P3, organic growth was 7% over the prior year. This increase was primarily due to sales to the defense industry, which increased $2,643 versus the prior year period primarily due to an improved mix of higher margin defense projects, increased direct labor, better execution, the timing of material receipts, and improved pricing. Net sales for the quarter also benefited from continued growth in commercial aftermarket sales of approximately $3,000 in comparison to the prior year period, which is included in our refining and chemical/petrochemical markets. Partially offsetting these increases was a $579 decline in space sales primarily due to the timing of projects, as well as the loss of Virgin Orbit as a customer partially offset by revenue from P3.

 

Domestic sales as a percentage of aggregate sales were 84% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 compared with 83% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, reflecting the increase in our defense industry businesses, which is U.S. based. Sales in the three months ended December 31, 2023 were 56% to the defense industry compared to 54% for the comparable quarter in fiscal 2023. Fluctuation in sales among markets, products and geographic locations varies, sometimes significantly, from quarter-to-quarter based on timing and magnitude of projects but overall reflects our strategic shift towards the defense industry.

 

Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 were $136,463, an increase of 20% from the first nine months of fiscal 2023. Approximately $1,027 of this increase was due to the P3 acquisition in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Excluding P3, organic growth was 19% over the prior year. Additionally, our sales continued to benefit from strong growth of approximately $10,800 in commercial aftermarket sales which is included in our refining and chemical/petrochemical markets. Partially offsetting this increase was a $3,750 decline in space sales primarily due to the timing of projects, as well as the loss of Virgin Orbit partially offset by revenue from P3. Additionally, sales from our China subsidiary were down approximately $2,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 compared to the prior year due to the slowdown in that market. Sales for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 were 83% to the domestic market compared with 80% in the comparable period in fiscal 2023 and reflects our strategic shift towards the defense industry. Additionally, sales for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 were 53% for the defense industry compared with 41% for the comparable period in fiscal 2023 and also reflects our strategic shift towards the defense industry. See also "Current Market Conditions," above. For additional information on anticipated future sales and our markets, see "Orders and Backlog" below.

 

Gross profit margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was 22%, compared with 16% for the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 increased $3,496 or 56%, compared with fiscal 2023, to $9,723. This increase reflected the increase in sales discussed above as well as an improved mix of sales related to higher margin defense and commercial aftermarket, as well as better execution and pricing on defense contracts, partially offset by higher incentive compensation in comparison with the prior year.

 

Gross profit margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 was 20%, compared with 16% for the first nine months of fiscal 2023. Gross profit for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 increased $9,640 or 53%, compared with fiscal 2023, to $27,891. This increase reflected the increase in sales discussed above as well as an improved mix of sales related to higher margin defense and commercial aftermarket sales, as well as better execution and pricing on defense contracts, partially offset by higher incentive compensation in comparison with the prior year.

In connection with the acquisition of BN, we entered into a Performance Bonus Agreement to provide employees of BN with a supplemental performance-based award based on the achievement of BN performance objectives for fiscal years ending March 31, 2024,

24


 

2025, and 2026 which can range between $2,000 to $4,000 per year (the "BN Performance Bonus"). The increase in professional fees over the prior year periods primarily relates to the increasing complexity in our business associated with our growth and our international operations including the investigation by our Board’s Audit Committee related to GIPL. See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the "Commitments and Contingencies" section below.

Net interest expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $37 compared to $294 in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 primarily due to lower debt levels compared to the prior year partially offset by higher interest rates.

Net interest expense for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 was $277 compared to $697 in the first nine months of fiscal 2023 primarily due to lower debt levels compared to the prior year partially offset by higher interest rates.

Our effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 was 22% consistent with the first nine months of fiscal 2023. Our effective tax rate for fiscal 2024 is expected to be between 22% and 23%.

The net result of the above is that net income and income per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were $165 and $0.02, respectively, compared with $368 and $0.03, respectively, for the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were $2,424 and $0.22 per share, respectively, compared with $857 and $0.08, respectively, for the third quarter of fiscal 2023.

Net income and income per diluted share for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 were $3,216 and $0.30, respectively, compared with $848 and $0.08, respectively, for the first nine months of fiscal 2023. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 were $7,369 and $0.68, respectively, compared with $2,511 and $0.24, respectively, for the first nine months of fiscal 2023. See "Non-GAAP Measures" below for a reconciliation of adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share to the comparable GAAP amount.

 

Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted net income, and adjusted net income per diluted share are provided for information purposes only and are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). Management believes the presentation of these financial measures reflecting non-GAAP adjustments provides important supplemental information to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating the operating results of the Company. In particular, those charges and credits that are not directly related to operating performance, and that are not a helpful measure of the performance of our underlying business particularly in light of their unpredictable nature. These non-GAAP disclosures have limitations as analytical tools, should not be viewed as a substitute for net income or net income per diluted share determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. In addition, supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to net income or net income per diluted share determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to assess the Company’s financial and operating performance and adjusted EBITDA is a basis for a portion of management's performance-based compensation.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes charges for depreciation, amortization, interest expense, taxes, acquisition related expenses, the BN Performance Bonus, debt amendment costs, ERP implementation costs, and other unusual/nonrecurring expenses. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share excludes intangible amortization, BN Performance Bonus, acquisition related expenses, debt amendment costs, ERP implementation costs, and other unusual/nonrecurring expenses.

A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted net income per diluted share to net income in accordance with GAAP is as follows:

Acquisition and Integration Costs are incremental costs that are directly related to the P3 acquisition. These costs may include, among other things, professional, consulting and other fees, system integration costs, and fair value adjustments relating to contingent consideration. In connection with the acquisition of BN, we entered into the BN Performance Bonus agreement to provide employees of BN with a supplemental performance-based award based on the achievement of BN performance objectives for fiscal years ending March 31, 2024, 2025, and 2026 which can range between $2,000 to $4,000 per year. Debt Amendment Costs consists of accelerated write-offs of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs and discounts, prepayment penalties and attorney fees in connection with the amendment of our credit facility in October 2023. ERP Implementation Costs relate to consulting costs incurred in connection with the new ERP system being implemented throughout our Batavia, N.Y. facility in order to enhance efficiency and productivity and are not expected to reoccur once the project is completed.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 was $19,483 compared with $8,946 for the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The cash provided by operations during the first nine months of fiscal 2024 was higher than the comparable prior year period primarily as a result of higher profitability and a reduction in working capital as a result of the change in payment terms related to large defense customers during the nine months and stronger financial discipline.

 

Capital expenditures for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 were $5,193 versus $2,394 over the comparable period in fiscal 2023. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2024 are expected to be between $8,000 to $10,000. Fiscal 2024 capital expenditures are expected to be primarily for machinery and equipment, as well as for buildings and leasehold improvements to fund our growth and productivity improvement initiatives and includes expenditures related to the expansion of production capabilities at our Batavia facility, which is being funded by one of our defense customers. The majority of our planned capital expenditures are discretionary. We estimate that our maintenance capital spend is approximately $2,000 per year.

Cash and cash equivalents were $15,163 at December 31, 2023 compared with $18,257 at March 31, 2023, as cash provided by operating activities was used to fund capital expenditures, net repayment of debt of $9,522, and the cash consideration used in the acquisition of P3 of $6,812. At December 31, 2023, approximately $7,247 of our cash and cash equivalents was used to secure our letters of credit and $1,724 of our cash was held by our China and India subsidiaries.

On October 13, 2023, we terminated our revolving credit facility and repaid our term loan with Bank of America and entered into a new five-year revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("Wells Fargo") that provides a $35,000 line of credit and automatically increases to $50,000 upon the Company satisfying specified covenants (the "New Revolving Credit Facility"). As of December 31, 2023, there was $3,000 borrowed and $666 letters of credit outstanding on the New Revolving Credit Facility and the amount available to borrow was $31,333, subject to interest and leverage covenants.

The New Revolving Credit Facility contains customary terms and conditions, including representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, as well as financial covenants for the benefit of Wells Fargo, which require us to maintain (i) a consolidated total leverage ratio not to exceed 3.50:1.00 and (ii) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.20:1.00, in both cases computed in accordance with the definitions and requirements specified in the New Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with the financial covenants of the New Revolving Credit Facility and our leverage ratio as calculated in accordance with the terms of the New Revolving Credit Facility was 0.6x.

 

Borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (i) a forward-looking term rate based on the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") for the applicable interest period, subject to a floor of 0.0% per annum or (ii) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the rate of interest per annum publicly announced by Wells Fargo as its prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum and (c) one-month term SOFR plus 1.00% per annum, subject to a floor of 1.00% per annum, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margins range between (i) 1.25% per annum and 2.50% per annum in the case of any term SOFR loan and (ii) 0.25% per annum and 1.50% per annum in the case of any base rate loan, in each case based upon our then-current consolidated total leverage ratio; provided, however, for a period of one year following the closing date, the applicable margin shall be set at 1.25% per annum in the case of any term SOFR loan and 0.25% per annum in the case of any base rate loan. As of December 31, 2023, the SOFR rate was 5.34%.

In connection with the termination of the old revolving credit facility and term loan with Bank of America, the Company paid $752 in exit costs and recognized an extinguishment charge of $726.

See Note 13 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

 

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, other than letters of credit incurred in the ordinary course of business.

We believe that cash generated from operations combined with the liquidity provided by our New Revolving Credit Facility will be adequate to meet our cash needs and fund our long-term strategic growth objectives.

 

Orders and Backlog

 

In addition to the non-GAAP measures discussed above, management uses the following key performance metrics to analyze and measure the Company's financial performance and results of operations; orders, backlog, and book-to-bill ratio. Management uses orders and backlog as measures of current and future business and financial performance and these may not be comparable with measures

27


 

provided by other companies. Orders represent written communications received from customers requesting us to provide products and/or services. Backlog is defined as the total dollar value of net orders received for which revenue has not yet been recognized. Management believes tracking orders and backlog are useful as it often times is a leading indicator of future performance. In accordance with industry practice, contracts may include provisions for cancellation, termination, or suspension at the discretion of the customer.

 

The book-to-bill ratio is an operational measure that management uses to track the growth prospects of the Company. The Company calculates the book-to-bill ratio for a given period as net orders divided by net sales.

 

Given that each of orders, backlog and book-to-bill ratio is an operational measure and that the Company's methodology for calculating these measures does not meet the definition of a non-GAAP measure, as that term is defined by the SEC, a quantitative reconciliation for each is not required or provided.

 

The following tables provide our orders by product line and geographic region including the percentage of total and change in comparison to the prior year for each category and period presented:

 

img101497535_2.jpg 

 

Orders booked the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 were $123,267, an increase of $103,223 over the comparable period of fiscal 2023. Orders booked for the nine-month period ended December 31,2023 were $227,665, an increase of $75,802 over the comparable period of fiscal 2023. These increases were primarily related to large defense orders received in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. For the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, our book-to-bill ratio was 1.7x. Orders during the first nine months of 2024 included the following:

Approximately $103,233 in defense orders which were primarily related to follow-on orders for critical U.S. Navy programs related to the Columbia Class submarine and Ford Class carrier programs. These defense orders are expected to be recognized in revenue beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 through early fiscal 2030.
$22,000 of the defense orders related to a strategic investment and follow-on orders from a major defense customer. These orders include $13,500 to expand and enhance our Batavia, N.Y. production capabilities, primarily for machinery and equipment, in order to support the U.S. Navy's shipbuilding schedule.
$9,100 for a vacuum distillation system for a refinery in India.
Approximately $27,000 of aftermarket orders to the refining and chemical/petrochemical markets.
$1,094 increase in space industry orders which is primarily due to continued growth in this business, as well as the acquisition of P3 partially offset by a decline due to the Virgin Orbit bankruptcy.

 

We believe the repeat U.S. Navy orders and strategic investment received validates the investments we made, our position as a key supplier to the defense industry and our customer's confidence in our execution. Additionally, we believe the strong aftermarket orders are significant because they historically have been a leading indicator of a cyclical upturn in capital project orders. However, we do not expect the next cycle to be as robust as years past due to the factors discussed above under "Current Market Conditions."

 

Orders to the U.S. represented 95% of total orders for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to 40% in the third quarter of the prior year. Orders to the U.S. represented 88% of total orders for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 compared to 81% in the comparable prior year period. These orders were primarily to the defense market which are U.S. based.

Backlog was $399,244 at December 31, 2023, an increase of 36% compared with $293,671 at December 31, 2022. We expect to recognize revenue on approximately 40% of the backlog within one year, 25 to 30% in one to two years and the remaining beyond two years. The majority of the orders that are expected to convert beyond twenty-four months are for the defense industry, specifically the U.S. Navy that have a long conversion cycle (generally up to six years). During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, backlog acquired from P3 Technologies was $6,225. During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we shipped the last of the first article units related to the Columbia Class submarine and Ford Class carrier programs. While we expect to continue to have first article programs in our backlog as we win new programs and applications, the amount as a percentage of total backlog should be reduced moving forward.

 

Outlook

 

We are providing the following fiscal 2024 outlook reflecting our current expectations:

Net Sales

 

$175 million to $185 million

Gross Profit

 

~20% of sales

SG&A Expenses(1)

 

~16-17% of sales

Tax Rate

 

22% to 23%

Adjusted EBITDA(2)

 

$15 million to $16 million

 

 

 

(1) Includes approximately $4.5 million to $5 million of BN Performance Bonus, P3 acquisition and integration, and ERP conversion costs included in SG&A expense.

(2) Excludes approximately $4.5 million to $5 million of BN Performance Bonus, P3 acquisition and integration, and ERP conversion costs included in SG&A expense and approximately $0.7 million of debt extinguishment charges.

 

See "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Non-GAAP Measures" above for additional information about forward-looking statements and non-GAAP measures. We have not reconciled non-GAAP forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, as permitted by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. Such reconciliation would require unreasonable efforts to estimate and quantify various necessary GAAP components largely because forecasting or predicting our future operating results is subject to many factors out of our control or not readily predictable.

 

We have made significant progress with the advancements in our business, which we believe puts us on schedule in achieving our fiscal 2027 goals of 8% to 10% average annualized organic revenue growth and Adjusted EBITDA margins in the low to mid-teens.

 

Our expectations for sales and profitability assume that we will be able to operate our production facilities at planned capacity, have access to our global supply chain including our subcontractors, do not experience significant global health related disruptions, and assumes no further impact from Virgin Orbit or any other unforeseen events.

 

Commitments and Contingencies

We have been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos allegedly contained in or accompanying our products. We are a co-defendant with numerous other defendants in these lawsuits and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against these claims. The claims in our current lawsuits are similar to those made in previous asbestos lawsuits that named us as a defendant. Such previous lawsuits either were dismissed when it was shown that we had not supplied products to the plaintiffs’ places of work, or were settled by us for immaterial amounts.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, with the assistance of external counsel and forensic professionals, concluded an investigation into a whistleblower complaint received regarding GIPL. The investigation identified both evidence supporting the complaint and other misconduct by employees. The other misconduct totaled $150 over a period of four years and was isolated to GIPL. All involved employees have been terminated and we have implemented remedial actions, including strengthening our compliance program and internal controls. As a result of the investigation, during the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the statutory auditor and bookkeeper of GIPL tendered their resignations and new firms were appointed. We have voluntarily reported the findings of our investigation to the appropriate authorities in India and the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the resolutions of these matters are inherently uncertain, we do not believe any remaining impact will be material to our overall consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. For the first nine months of fiscal 2024 we incurred approximately $750 in costs related to this investigation.

As of December 31, 2023, we are subject to the claims noted above, as well as other legal proceedings and potential claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of the lawsuits, legal proceedings or potential claims to which we are or may become a party cannot be determined and an estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss cannot be made for the majority of the claims, we do not believe that the outcomes, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Judgments

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the selection of accounting policies and the application of significant accounting estimates, some of which require management to make significant assumptions. We believe that the most critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements relate to labor hour estimates, total cost, and establishment of operational milestones which are used to recognize revenue over time, accounting for contingencies, under which we accrue a loss when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated, accounting for business combinations and intangible assets, and accounting for pensions and other postretirement benefits. For further information, refer to Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from market changes) to which we are exposed are foreign currency exchange rates, price risk, and interest rate risk.

The assumptions applied in preparing the following qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding foreign currency exchange rate, price risk and interest rate risk are based upon volatility ranges experienced by us in relevant historical periods, our current knowledge of the marketplace, and our judgment of the probability of future volatility based upon the historical trends and economic conditions of the markets in which we operate.

Foreign Currency

International consolidated sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 were 17% of total sales compared with 20% for the same period of fiscal 2023. Operating in markets throughout the world exposes us to movements in currency exchange rates. Currency movements can affect sales in several ways, the foremost being our ability to compete for orders against foreign competitors that base their prices on relatively weaker currencies. Business lost due to competition for orders against competitors using a relatively weaker currency cannot be quantified. In addition, cash can be adversely impacted by the conversion of sales made by us in a foreign currency to U.S. dollars. In each of the first nine months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, substantially all sales by us and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, for which we were paid, were denominated in the local currency of the respective subsidiary (U.S. dollars, Chinese RMB or India INR). For the first nine months of fiscal 2024, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations reduced our cash balances by $39 primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar.

We have limited exposure to foreign currency purchases. In the first nine months of fiscal 2024, our purchases in foreign currencies represented approximately 4% of the cost of products sold. At certain times, we may enter into forward foreign currency exchange agreements to hedge our exposure against potential unfavorable changes in foreign currency values on significant sales and purchase contracts negotiated in foreign currencies. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts were not used in the periods being reported in this Form 10-Q and as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, we held no forward foreign currency contracts.

Price Risk

 

30


 

Operating in a global marketplace requires us to compete with other global manufacturers which, in some instances, benefit from lower production costs and more favorable economic conditions. Although we believe that our customers differentiate our products on the basis of our manufacturing quality, engineering experience, and customer service, among other things, such lower production costs and more favorable economic conditions mean that our competitors are able to offer products similar to ours at lower prices. In extreme market downturns, such as we recently experienced, we typically see depressed price levels. Additionally, we have faced, and may continue to face, significant cost inflation, specifically in labor costs, raw materials, and other supply chain costs due to increased demand for raw materials and resources caused by the broad disruption of the global supply chain, including those associated with the impact of COVID-19. International conflicts or other geopolitical events, including the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war, may further contribute to increased supply chain costs due to shortages in raw materials, increased costs for transportation and energy, disruptions in supply chains, and heightened inflation. Further escalation of geopolitical tensions may also lead to changes to foreign exchange rates and financial markets, any of which may adversely affect our business and supply chain, and consequently our results of operation. While there could ultimately be a material impact on our operations and liquidity, at the time of this report, the impact could not be determined.

Interest Rate Risk

In order to fund our strategic growth objectives, including acquisitions, we borrow funds under our revolving credit facility that bears interest at a variable rate. As part of our risk management activities, we evaluate the use of interest rate derivatives to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. As of December 31, 2023, we had $3,000 of variable rate debt outstanding on our revolving credit facility and no interest rate derivatives outstanding. See ''Debt'' in Note 13 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information about our outstanding debt. A hypothetical one percentage point (100 basis points) change in the BSBY rate on the $3,000 of variable rate debt outstanding at December 31, 2023 would have an impact of approximately $30 on our interest expense for fiscal 2024.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Conclusion regarding the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures

 

Our President and Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Vice President - Finance and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer) each have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, and as of such date, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President - Finance and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in all material respects.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

Other than the events discussed under the section entitled P3 Technologies Acquisition below, there has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

P3 Technologies Acquisition

On November 9, 2023, we acquired P3 Technologies, LLC, a privately-owned custom turbomachinery engineering, product development and manufacturing business located in Jupiter, Florida. For additional information regarding the acquisition, refer to Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in Item 2 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on the recent completion of this acquisition and, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of an assessment for a period not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, the scope of our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report does not include P3 Technologies, LLC. We plan to include P3 Technologies, LLC in our annual assessment for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

If we fail to successfully integrate the operations of P3 Technologies, LLC, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

On November 9, 2023, we acquired P3 Technologies, LLC, a privately-owned custom turbomachinery engineering, product development, and manufacturing business that serves the space, new energy and medical industries. We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to integrate the operations of P3 Technologies, LLC without encountering difficulties, including unanticipated costs, difficulty in retaining customers and supplier or other relationships, failure to retain key employees, diversion of management's attention, failure to integrate our information and accounting systems or establish and maintain proper internal control over financial reporting, any of which would harm our business and results of operations.

Furthermore, we may not realize the revenue and net income that we expect to achieve or that would justify our investment in P3 Technologies, LLC, and we may incur costs in excess of what we anticipate. To effectively manage our expected future growth, we must continue to successfully manage our integration of P3 Technologies, LLC and continue to improve our operational systems, internal procedures, accounts receivable and management, financial and operational controls. If we fail in any of these areas, our business and results of operations could be harmed.

Our acquisition of P3 Technologies, LLC might subject us to unknown and unforeseen liabilities.

P3 Technologies, LLC may have unknown liabilities, including, but not limited to, product liability, workers' compensation liability, tax liability and liability for improper business practices. Although we are entitled to indemnification from the seller of P3 Technologies, LLC for these and other matters, we could experience difficulty enforcing those obligations or we could incur material liabilities for the past activities of P3 Technologies, LLC. Such liabilities and related legal or other costs could harm our business or results of operations.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

Dividend Policy

 

We do not currently pay a cash dividend on our common stock. Any future determination by our board of directors regarding dividends will depend on a variety of factors, including our compliance with the terms of our revolving credit facility, organic growth and acquisition opportunities, future financial performance, general economic conditions and financial, competitive, regulatory, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. There can be no guarantee that we will pay dividends in the future.
