Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. General
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of AAON, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and our operating subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned, (collectively, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These financial statements have not been audited by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, except that the consolidated balance sheet at
December 31, 2018
is derived from audited consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial statements reflect all adjustments (all of which are of a normal recurring nature) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. Certain disclosures have been condensed in or omitted from these consolidated financial statements. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2018
. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
We are engaged in the engineering, manufacturing, marketing and sale of air conditioning and heating equipment consisting of standard, semi-custom and custom rooftop units, chillers, packaged outdoor mechanical rooms, air handling units, makeup air units, energy recovery units, condensing units, geothermal/water-source heat pumps, coils and controls.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Because these estimates and assumptions require significant judgment, actual results could differ from those estimates and could have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. We reevaluate our estimates and assumptions as needed, but at a minimum on a quarterly basis. The most significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the fair-value of acquisitions, inventory reserves, warranty accrual, worker's compensation accrual, medical insurance accrual, income taxes and share-based compensation. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Accounting Policies
A comprehensive discussion of our critical accounting policies and management estimates is included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2018
.
Business Combinations
We record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination at their acquisition date fair values.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is based upon assumptions that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability. We use the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes valuation technique inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels:
|
|
•
|
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date.
|
|
|
•
|
Level 2: Inputs (other than quoted prices included within Level 1) that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability, including (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and (iv) inputs that are derived from observable market data by correlation or other means.
|
|
|
•
|
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability including situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Items categorized in Level 3 include the estimated business combination fair values of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill.
|
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). In some cases, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The lowest level input that is significant to a fair value measurement determines the applicable level in the fair value hierarchy. Assessing the significance of a particular input to a fair value measurement requires judgment, considering factors specific to the asset or liability.
Investments
We held approximately $
4 million
in certificates of deposit at
June 30, 2019
. The certificates of deposit bear interest ranging from
2.25%
to
2.30%
per annum and have maturities of less than
one month
.
Intangible Assets
Our intangible assets include various trademarks, service marks and technical knowledge acquired in our February 2018 business combination (see Note 3). We amortize our intangible assets on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. We evaluate the carrying value of our amortizable intangible assets for potential impairment when events and circumstances warrant such a review.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid for the acquired businesses over the fair value of the individual assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed. Goodwill at
June 30, 2019
is deductible for income tax purposes. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is evaluated for impairment at least annually. We perform our annual assessment of impairment during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, and more frequently if circumstances warrant.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") in the form of Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") to the FASB's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC").
We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13,
Fair Value Measurements: Changes to the Disclosure Requirement for Fair Value Measurements
. The ASU includes additional disclosure requirements for unrealized gains and losses for Level 3 fair value measurement and significant observable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2019. We do not expect ASU 2018-13 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
2. Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2018, we adopted the new accounting standard FASB ASC 606,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers,
and all the related amendments to all contracts using the retrospective method. The impact at adoption was not material to the consolidated financial statements. The new accounting policy provides results substantially consistent with prior revenue recognition policies.

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies the performance obligation in its contracts. Most of the Company’s products are highly customized, cannot be resold to other customers and the cost of rework to be resold is not economical. The Company has a formal cancellation policy and generally does not accept returns on these units. As a result, many of the Company’s products do not have an alternative use and therefore, for these products we recognize revenue over the time it takes to produce the unit. For all other products that are part sales or standardized units, we satisfy the performance obligation when the title and risk of ownership pass to the customer, generally at time of shipment. Final sales prices are fixed based on purchase orders. Sales allowances and customer incentives are treated as reductions to sales and are provided for based on historical experiences and current estimates. Sales of our products are moderately seasonal with the peak period being July - November of each year.
In addition, the Company presents revenues net of sales tax and net of certain payments to our independent manufacturer representatives (“Representatives”). Representatives are national companies that are in the business of providing HVAC units and other related products and services to customers. The end user customer orders a bundled group of products and services from the Representative and expects the Representative to fulfill the order. Only after the specifications are agreed to by the Representative and the customer, and the decision is made to use an AAON HVAC unit, will we receive notice of the order. We establish the amount we must receive for our HVAC unit (“minimum sales price”), but do not control the total order price that is negotiated by the Representative with the end user customer.
We are responsible for billings and collections resulting from all sales transactions, including those initiated by our Representatives. The Representatives submit the total order price to us for invoicing and collection. The total order price includes our minimum sales price and an additional amount which may include both the Representatives’ fee and amounts due for additional products and services required by the customer. These additional products and services may include controls purchased from another manufacturer to operate the unit, start-up services, and curbs for supporting the unit (“Third Party Products”). All are associated with the purchase of a HVAC unit but may be provided by the Representative or another third party. The Company is under no obligation related to Third Party Products.
The Representatives’ fee and Third Party Products amounts (“Due to Representatives”) are paid only after all amounts associated with the order are collected from the customer. The amount of payments to our Representatives were
$10.2 million
and
$13.3 million
for the
three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018
, respectively and $
21.7 million
and $
24.9 million
for the
six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018
, respectively.
The Company also sells extended warranties on parts for various lengths of time ranging from
six months
to
10 years
. Revenue for these separately priced warranties is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the separately priced warranty period.
3. Business Combination
On February 28, 2018, we closed on the purchase of substantially all of the assets of WattMaster Controls, Inc., (“WattMaster”). The assets acquired consisted primarily of intellectual property, receivables, inventory and fixed assets. The Company also hired substantially all of the WattMaster employees. These assets and workforce have allowed us to accelerate the development of our own electronic controllers for air distribution systems. We funded the business combination with available cash of
$6.0 million
. We paid the final working capital settlement of $
0.4 million
with available cash in May 2018. We have included the results of WattMaster's operations in our consolidated financial statements beginning March 1, 2018.
The following table presents the allocation of the consideration paid to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their fair values, in the acquisition of WattMaster described above:

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid for the acquired businesses over the fair value of the individual assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed. Goodwill represents a premium paid to acquire the skilled workforce of the business acquired and is deductible for federal income tax purposes.
4. Leases
We adopted ASU No. 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842)
, as amended, as of January 1, 2019, using the transition method, which becomes effective upon the date of adoption. The transition method allows entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date (January 1, 2019) and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. In addition, we elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification. We have also elected the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption which does not require balance sheet presentation for short-term leases. The Company historically does not enter into numerous or material lease agreements to support its manufacturing operations. Furthermore, any lease agreements entered into are usually less than a year and for leases on non material assets such as warehouse vehicles and office equipment.
Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of additional lease right of use assets and lease liabilities of approximately
$1.8 million
as of January 1, 2019, which mostly relates to the multi-year facility lease assumed in the 2018 WattMaster acquisition. The cumulative-effect adjustments to the opening balance was immaterial to the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The standard did not materially impact our consolidated net earnings or cash flows.

6. Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. We establish an allowance for excess and obsolete inventories based on product line changes, the feasibility of substituting parts and the need for supply and replacement parts.
The components of inventories are as follows:

9. Warranties
The Company has warranties with various terms ranging from
18
months for parts to
25
years for certain heat exchangers. The Company has an obligation to replace parts if conditions under the warranty are met. A provision is made for estimated warranty costs at the time the related products are sold based upon the warranty period, historical trends, new products and any known identifiable warranty issues.
Changes in the warranty accrual are as follows:

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Act") was enacted on December 22, 2017. Major changes under the Act include the following:
|
|
•
|
Reducing the corporate rate to 21 percent
|
|
|
•
|
Doubling bonus depreciation to
100 percent
for
five years
|
|
|
•
|
Further limitations on executive compensation deductions
|
|
|
•
|
Eliminating the domestic manufacturing deduction
|
As a result of these changes, the Company adjusted its deferred tax assets and liabilities in the forth quarter of 2017 using the newly enacted rates for the periods when they are expected to be realized.
In February 2018, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 extended accelerated depreciation for business property on an Indian reservation. As a result, the Company has approximately
$5.0 million
in additional depreciation it can take as a tax deduction in 2017. Because the Company had remeasured its deferred tax liability related to property, plant and equipment to the new lower
tax rate at December 31, 2017 and because this additional depreciation became a current tax expense with the passing of this bill in 2018, the Company received a benefit of approximately
$0.6 million
as the deduction will be taken in 2017 at the higher federal tax rate of 35.0%.
The Company's estimated annual 2019 effective tax rate, excluding discrete events, is approximately
27%
. We file income tax returns in the U.S., state and foreign income tax returns jurisdictions. We are subject to U.S. examinations for tax years 2014 to present, and to non-U.S. income tax examinations for the tax years of 2014 to present. In addition, we are subject to state and local income tax examinations for the tax years 2014 to present. The Company continues to evaluate its need to file returns in various state jurisdictions. Any interest or penalties would be recognized as a component of income tax expense.
13. Share-Based Compensation
On May 22, 2007, our stockholders adopted a Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) which provided an additional
3.3 million
shares that could be granted in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, performance units and performance awards, in addition to the shares from the previous plan, the 1992 Plan. Since inception of the LTIP, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards have been granted with a
five years
vesting schedule. Under the LTIP, the exercise price of shares granted could not be less than
100%
of the fair market value at the date of the grant.
On May 24, 2016, our stockholders adopted the 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2016 Plan") which provides for approximately
6.4 million
shares, comprised of
3.4 million
new shares provided for under the 2016 Plan, approximately
0.4 million
shares that were available for issuance under the previous LTIP that are now authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan, and an additional
2.6 million
shares that were approved by the stockholders on May 15, 2018. Under the 2016 Plan, shares can be granted in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, performance awards, dividend equivalent rights, and other awards. Under the 2016 Plan, the exercise price of shares granted may not be less than
100%
of the fair market value at the date of the grant. The 2016 Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors or such other committee of the Board of Directors as is designated by the Board of Directors (the “Committee”). Membership on the Committee shall be limited to independent directors. The Committee may delegate certain duties to one or more officers of the Company as provided in the 2016 Plan. The Committee will determine the persons to whom awards are to be made, determine the type, size and terms of awards, interpret the 2016 Plan, establish and revise rules and regulations relating to the 2016 Plan and make any other determinations that it believes necessary for the administration of the 2016 Plan.
Options
- The total pre-tax compensation cost related to unvested stock options not yet recognized as of
June 30, 2019
is
$29.1 million
and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of
4.00
years.
The following weighted average assumptions were used to determine the fair value of the stock options granted on the original grant date for expense recognition purposes for options granted during the
six
months ended
June 30,
2019
and
2018
using a Black Scholes-Merton Model:

The expected term of the options is based on evaluations of historical and expected future employee exercise behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rates at the date of grant with maturity dates approximately equal to the expected life at the grant date. Volatility is based on historical volatility of our stock over time periods equal to the expected life at grant date.

Restricted Stock
- Since 2007, as part of the LTIP and since May 2016 as part of the 2016 Plan, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has authorized and issued restricted stock awards to directors and key employees. Restricted stock awards granted to directors vest one-third each year. All other restricted stock awards vest at a rate of
20%
per year. The fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the fair market value of AAON, Inc. common stock on the respective grant dates, reduced for the present value of dividends.
These awards are recorded at their fair value on the date of grant and compensation cost is recorded using straight-line vesting over the service period. At
June 30,
2019
, unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock awards was approximately
$8.5 million
, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of
3.00
years.

14. Earnings Per Share
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share assumes the conversion of all potentially dilutive securities and is calculated by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus all potentially dilutive securities. Dilutive common shares consist primarily of stock options and restricted stock awards.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

16. Commitments and Contingencies
We are subject to various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. We closely monitor these claims and legal actions and frequently consult with our legal counsel to determine whether they may, when resolved, have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows and we accrue and/or disclose loss contingencies as appropriate. We have concluded that the likelihood is remote that the ultimate resolution of any pending litigation or claims will be material or have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.
We are occasionally party to short-term, cancellable and occasionally non-cancellable, fixed price contracts with major suppliers for the purchase of raw material and component parts. We expect to receive delivery of raw materials for use in our manufacturing operations. These contracts are not accounted for as derivative instruments because they meet the normal purchase and normal sales exemption. At
June 30, 2019
, we had
one
material contractual purchase obligation for approximately
$1.1 million
that expires in December 2019.
