UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In thousands, except per share data)

1.    BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION

Allied Motion Technologies Inc. (“Allied Motion” or the “Company”) is engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing, and selling precision and specialty-controlled motion components and systems, which include integrated system solutions as well as individual controlled motion products, to a broad spectrum of customers throughout the world primarily for the vehicle, medical, aerospace and defense, and industrial markets.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using end of period exchange rates. Changes in reported amounts of assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries that occur as a result of changes in exchange rates between the foreign subsidiaries’ functional currencies and the U.S. dollar are included in foreign currency translation adjustment. Foreign currency translation adjustment is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of stockholders’ equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. Revenue and expense transactions use an average rate prevailing during the month of the related transaction. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of each of the foreign subsidiaries are included in the results of operations as incurred in other (income) expense, net.

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The financial data for the interim periods may not necessarily be indicative of results to be expected for the year.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

It is suggested that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes to such statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 that was previously filed by the Company.

This consideration was reduced by $800 during the three months ended September 30, 2022, based upon fair valuation of the contingent consideration, and due to an anticipated shift in the timing of the earnings of the acquired entity, largely reflecting supply chain issues experienced within the industry. A further explanation of the valuation process is disclosed in Note 12, Fair Value. Contingent consideration of $4,100 is included in other long-term liabilities as of September 30, 2022 on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Spectrum Controls acquisition includes two remaining payments of $12,500 each to be paid in two equal installments no later than December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023, respectively, comprised of 50% cash and 50% in Company stock. As of September 30, 2022, $12,472 is included in accrued liabilities and $12,361 is included in other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2021, $12,388 is included in accrued liabilities and $12,277 is included in other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

3.    REVENUE RECOGNITION

Performance Obligations

The Company considers control of most products to transfer at a single point in time when control is transferred to the customer, generally when the products are shipped in accordance with an agreement and/or purchase order. Control is defined as the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the product.

The Company satisfies its performance obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring goods and services in exchange for monetary consideration from the customer. The Company considers the customer’s purchase order, and the Company’s corresponding sales order acknowledgment as the contract with the customer. For some customers, control, and a sale, is transferred at a point in time when the product is delivered to a customer. For a limited number of contracts, the Company recognizes revenue over time in proportion to costs incurred.

Sales, value add, and other taxes the Company collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

Nature of Goods and Services

The Company sells component and integrated controlled motion solutions to end customers and original equipment manufacturers (“OEM’s”) through the Company’s own direct sales force and authorized manufacturers’ representatives and distributors. The Company’s products include brushed and brushless DC motors, brushless servo and torque motors, coreless DC motors, integrated brushless motor-drives, gearmotors, gearing, modular digital servo drives, motion controllers, incremental and absolute optical encoders, active and passive filters for power quality and harmonic issues, and other controlled motion-related products. The Company’s target markets include Vehicle, Medical, Aerospace & Defense, and Industrial. 

Determining the Transaction Price

The majority of the Company’s contracts have an original duration of less than one year. For these contracts, the Company applies the practical expedient and therefore does not consider the effects of the time value of money. For multiyear contracts, the Company uses judgment to determine whether there is a significant financing component. These contracts are generally those in which the customer has made an up-front payment. Contracts that management determines to include a significant financing component are discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company incurs interest expense and accrues a contract liability. As the Company satisfies performance obligations and recognizes revenue from these contracts, interest expense is recognized simultaneously. Management does not have any contracts that include a significant financing component as of September 30, 2022.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers into geographical regions and target markets. The Company determines that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. As noted below in Note 17, Segment Information, the Company’s business consists of one reportable segment. Revenue by geographic region is based on point of shipment origin.

A disaggregation of revenue by target market and geography is provided below:

Contract Balances

When the timing of the Company’s delivery of product is different from the timing of the payments made by customers, the Company recognizes either a contract asset (performance precedes customer payment) or a contract liability (customer payment precedes performance). Typically, contracts are paid in arrears and are recognized as receivables after the Company considers whether a significant financing component exists.

The difference between the opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract liabilities primarily results from the timing difference between the Company’s performance and the customer’s payment. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized revenue of $2,217 that was included in the opening contract liabilities balance.

Significant Payment Terms

The Company’s contracts with its customers state the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price of each product or service purchased. Payments are typically due in full within 30-60 days of delivery. Since the customer agrees to a stated rate and price in the contract that do not vary over the contract, the majority of contracts do not contain variable consideration.

Returns, Refunds, and Warranties

In the normal course of business, the Company does not accept product returns unless the item is defective as manufactured. The Company establishes provisions for estimated returns and warranties. All contracts include a standard warranty clause to guarantee that the product complies with agreed specifications.

4.    INVENTORIES

Inventories include costs of materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead, and are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value, as follows:

The effective rate of the Amended Revolving Facility is 3.92% at September 30, 2022.

Amended Revolving Credit Facility

The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), dated as of August 23, 2022, includes a $280 million revolving credit facility (the “Amended Revolving Facility”), increased from $225 million in the previous credit agreement, under which comparative periods are reported. Additionally, the referenced index was amended to be the Term Standard Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), whereas the previous credit agreement utilized the London Interbank Offering Rate (LIBOR) as the referenced interest rate. The Amended Credit Agreement eliminates the previous $75 million accordion feature and maintains the original maturity date of February 2025.

12

Table of Contents

ALLIED MOTION TECHNOLOGIES INC.

UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In thousands, except per share data)

Borrowings under the Amended Revolving Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Adjusted SOFR (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) which is subject to a floor of 0.00% plus an appicable rate ranging from 1.00% to 2.25% based on the Company’s ratio of total funded indebtedness to consolidated trailing twelve-month EBITDA (the “Total Leverage Ratio”). At September 30, 2022, the applicable SOFR-based borrowing rate was 2.25%. A credit spread adjustment of 0.10% to 0.275% is also carried on the Amended Revolving Facility. In addition, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of between 0.10% and 0.275% annually on the unused portion of the Amended Revolving Facility, also based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio. The Amended Revolving Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s non-realty assets and is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.

The Amended Credit Agreement includes covenants and restrictions that limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments, create, incur or assume certain liens, merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its assets and enter into transactions with an affiliate of the Company on other than an arms’ length transaction. These covenants, which are described more fully in the Amended Credit Agreement, to which reference is made for a complete statement of the covenants, are subject to certain exceptions.  The Amended Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require that the Company maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company’s Leverage Ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter shall not be greater than 4.0 to 1.0 ratio (reduced to 3.5:1.0 for quarters ending on or after December 31, 2023); provided that the Company may elect to temporarily increase the Leverage Ratio by 0.5x during the twelve-month period following a material acquisition under the Amended Credit Agreement (“acquisition leverage increase”), subject to certain exceptions.  The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2022.

As of September 30, 2022, the unused Amended Revolving Facility was $56,868. The amount available to borrow may be limited by the Company’s debt and EBITDA levels, which impacts its covenant calculations.

Other

The China Credit Facility (“the China Facility”) provides credit of $1,405 (Chinese Renminbi 10,000). The China Facility is a demand revolving facility used for working capital and capital equipment needs at the Company’s China operations. The term is annual and may be cancelled at the bank’s discretion. The interest rate shall be agreed upon by the Lender and the Borrower before the Utilization Date (as defined in the China Facility) and shall be specified in the Utilization Request (as defined in the China Facility). Collateral for the facility is a guarantee issued by the Company. There were no borrowings under the China Facility during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 or 2021, respectively.

11.    DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, and foreign exchange risk primarily through the use of derivative financial instruments.

The Company enters into foreign currency contracts with 30-day maturities to hedge its short-term balance sheet exposure, primarily intercompany, that are denominated in currencies (Euro, Mexican Peso, New Zealand Dollar, Chinese Renminbi, Swedish Krona) other than the subsidiary’s functional currency and are adjusted to current values using period-end exchange rates. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in other expense (income), net in the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive (loss) income. To minimize foreign currency exposure, the Company had foreign currency contracts with notional amounts of $17,250 at September 30, 2022. The foreign currency contracts are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value and resulting gains or losses are recorded in other expense (income), net in the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive (loss) income. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had losses of $257 and $54, respectively on foreign currency contracts which is included in other expense (income), net and generally offset the gains or losses from the foreign currency adjustments on the intercompany balances that are also included in other expense (income), net. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company had losses of $82 and $149, respectively.

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements on its variable-rate debt. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable

13

Table of Contents

ALLIED MOTION TECHNOLOGIES INC.

UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In thousands, except per share data)

amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. In February 2017, the Company entered into three interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $40,000 that matured in February 2022. In March 2020, the Company entered into two additional interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $20,000 that increased to $60,000 in March 2022 and matures in December 2024. In March 2022 the Company entered into an additional interest rate swap with a notional amount of $40,000 that matures in December 2026.

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During 2022 and 2021, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.

The Company estimates that $1,804 will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense over the next twelve months related to its interest rate derivatives. Additionally, the Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company either defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.

12.   FAIR VALUE

Authoritative guidance defines fair value 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.

The guidance establishes a framework for measuring fair value which utilizes observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs

15

Table of Contents

ALLIED MOTION TECHNOLOGIES INC.

UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In thousands, except per share data)

reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs.

These two types of inputs create the following three - level fair value hierarchy:

Level 1:

Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2:

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model - derived valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3:

Significant inputs to the valuation model that are unobservable.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, debt obligations, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for these assets and liabilities approximate their fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments.

The following tables presents the Company’s financial assets that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

(4,900)

The contingent consideration fair value measurement in connection with the acquisition of ALIO Industries in the fourth quarter of 2021 is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and therefore constitute Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. The Company determines the initial fair value of contingent consideration liabilities using a Monte Carlo valuation model, which involves a simulation of future earnings generated during the earn out-period using management’s best estimates, or a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. The reduction of $800 of the estimated fair value of contingent consideration during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, based on the modeling described above, represents an anticipated shift in the timing of the earnings of the acquired entity, largely reflecting supply chain challenges.

13.    INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. There is potential for volatility of the effective tax rate due to several factors, including changes in the mix of the pre-tax income and the jurisdictions to which it relates, changes in tax laws, settlements with taxing authorities and foreign currency fluctuations.

The effective income tax rate was 27.5% and 24.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 does not include any significant discrete tax items and for the three

months ended September 30, 2021 includes a discrete tax benefit of (2.9%), respectively, related primarily to share-based payment awards. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the effective income tax rate was 26.3% and (14.2%), respectively. The effective tax rate includes a discrete tax benefit of (1.7%) and (41.3%), respectively. The discrete benefit in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is primarily related to the reversal of uncertain tax positions. The discrete benefit in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is related primarily to the recognition of net operating loss carryforwards resulting from tax legislation enacted in New Zealand during the period, which changes our ability to use the carryforwards in future periods changes our ability to use the carryforwards in future periods.

14.    LEASES

The Company has operating leases for office space, manufacturing equipment, computer equipment and automobiles. Many leases include one or more options to renew, some of which include options to extend the leases for a long-term period, and some leases include options to terminate the leases within 30 days. In certain of the Company’s lease agreements, the rental payments are adjusted periodically to reflect actual charges incurred for capital area maintenance, utilities, inflation and/or changes in other indexes.

Overview

We are a global company that designs, manufactures, and sells precision and specialty-controlled motion products and solutions used in a broad range of industries. Our target markets include Industrial, Vehicle, Medical, and Aerospace & Defense (A&D). We are headquartered in Amherst, NY, and have operations in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. We are known worldwide for our expertise in electro-magnetic, mechanical, and electronic motion technology. We sell component and integrated controlled motion solutions to end customers and OEMs through our own direct sales force and authorized manufacturers’ representatives and distributors. Our products include nano precision positioning systems, servo control systems, motion controllers, digital servo amplifiers and drives, brushless servo, torque, and coreless motors, brush motors, integrated motor-drives, gear motors, gearing, incremental and absolute optical encoders, active (electronic) and passive (magnetic) filters for power quality and harmonic issues, Industrial safety rated input/output Modules, Universal Industrial Communications Gateways, light-weighting technologies, and other controlled motion-related products.

Business Environment

Recent Events

During 2022, inflation continued to impact our input costs and pricing, primarily for labor and materials. We, our customers, and our suppliers also began to experience the effect of a higher interest rate environment. Gross domestic product is forecasted to slow throughout 2022 largely due to the widespread impacts of inflation, increasing interest rates, and more restrictive financial conditions. Supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, and global inflation remain persistent in 2022, along with elevated geopolitical instability.

The ongoing Ukraine conflict has created general economic uncertainty with regard to energy and other commodity prices, interest rates, and our supply chain. The conflict has resulted in increased energy and component costs, especially within our European locations, as well as extending the time for component shipments between Europe and Asia-Pacific. We continue to monitor developments as they unfold in order to react accordingly. The impact of the conflict on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments that cannot be predicted, including the availability of oil, the potential impact on our production in Europe, and customer ordering prioritization in our A&D markets.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) was signed into law in August 2022. The IRA is federal legislation designed to raise revenue from lowering of prescription drug prices and imposition of certain corporate tax measures, while authorizing spending on energy and climate change initiatives, subsidizing the Affordable Care Act, and enacting of certain tax reforms. Management continues to monitor any potential impact of the IRA on our results. No immediate or direct effect from the legislation is anticipated to have a material impact on our results at this time.

The CHIPS and Science Act (“CHIPS”) was signed into law in August 2022. CHIPS is a federal statue providing funding for research and domestic production of semiconductors. Additional funding can be provided through CHIPS to various federal agencies as well as towards climate science research. No immediate or direct material effect from the legislation is anticipated to have a material impact on our results at this time.

Acquisitions

The Company completed three acquisitions during the second quarter 2022 (“2022 acquisitions”) and three acquisitions during the fourth quarter of 2021 (“2021 acquisitions”), (collectively the “recent acquisitions”). These acquisitions had a significant impact on the quarter and year to date results as described below. These acquisitions are important to executing on the Company’s strategic plan, and our focus in the near term will be on successfully integrating these acquisitions and leveraging the synergies that will be important drivers of our future growth and profitability.

COVID-19

The ongoing impact of Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and its variants has created significant impacts and disruptions to the U.S. and global economies and are likely to do so for the foreseeable future. We expect that COVID-19 will continue to adversely affect portions of our business, including our global supply chain and manufacturing operations. We experienced reductions in customer demand in certain of our served markets and increases in demand in other of these markets during the first, second, and third quarters of 2022 due to COVID-19. The operational ability of our suppliers to provide the necessary quantity of materials on a timely basis has been reduced, which has impacted the predictability of our global supply chain, and resulted in some increased costs to secure and place materials into production and forced us to delay product shipments. Throughout 2022, we expect the impact of COVID-19 on our operations will continue to challenge certain aspects of our business, particularly our global supply chain and our ability to hire direct labor. Certain materials and components used in our products are required and qualified to be sourced from a single or a limited number of suppliers. Any interruption in the supply from any supplier that serves as a sole source could delay product shipments and have a material adverse effect on our business.

In response to COVID-19, we have taken and will continue to take proactive, aggressive action to protect the health and safety of our employees, customers, partners, suppliers, and communities. We continue to follow rigorous safety measures in all of our sites, including social distancing protocols, incorporating a work from home model at certain times for those employees that do not need to be physically present to perform their work, limiting travel, implementing temperature checks at the entrances to our facilities where required, extensively and frequently disinfecting our workspaces and providing masks and other protective equipment to those employees who must be physically present. These measures have been implemented on a worldwide basis and have been adjusted

21

prudently as requirements and conditions change. We will continue to monitor and act in accordance with government authorities’ requirements or recommendations and evolving best practices.

Our Company provides essential and important products, including some that our customers rely on to address COVID-19. We manufacture and deliver critical motion control components, including electronic drives, motors, and control assemblies to manufacturers of medical equipment including respirators, ventilators, infusion pumps, medical fluid pumps and other breathing assist equipment required to care for patients with respiratory issues including COVID-19. We are a long-term, qualified supplier to leading medical device manufacturers of ventilators and respirators around the world.

While demand for certain items, such as ventilators, has returned to normalized levels in 2022, we continue to provide solutions to suppliers of other types of medical equipment, including surgical tools and equipment, surgical robots, diagnostic equipment, test equipment, patient mobility and rehabilitation equipment, hospital beds, and mobile equipment carts.

Our worldwide locations are considered to be essential suppliers to our customers and therefore most of our locations have remained substantially operational throughout the outbreak while implementing the enhanced safety procedures.

There have been recent COVID-19 related lockdowns in certain areas of China that have generally impacted the timing of shipments into and out of certain ports. These lockdowns have not significantly impacted our production facilities, however we are continuing to monitor the situation.

Our Amended Credit Agreement includes a $280 million revolving credit facility through February 2025. Through this amendment we have potentially lowered our cost of debt and have secured more favorable covenants. This availability of liquidity preserves our financial flexibility. We believe that our cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity are sufficient to support our short and long-term liquidity needs.

To conserve cash and maximize operational efficiency while supporting growth plans, we continue to align variable costs with demand, maintain and enhance key engineering capabilities, and control discretionary spending. The Company continues to closely monitor events and conditions resulting from COVID-19.

The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our operational and financial performance will continue to depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the virus and variants, the potential for additional waves, its impact on our customers, suppliers, and the range of governmental reactions to the pandemic, which cannot be predicted at this time. We will continue to proactively respond to the situation and will take further actions as warranted to alter our business operations as necessary.

REVENUES: The increase in revenues during the third quarter 2022 reflects increases in each of our served markets, most notably within A&D and Industrial, and includes a full quarter of the impact of the recent acquisitions. Our revenue for the period ended September 30, 2022 was comprised of 59% to U.S. customers and 41% to customers primarily in Europe, Canada, and Asia-Pacific. The overall increase in revenue was due to a 37% volume increase offset partially by a 7% unfavorable currency impact. Organic growth was 15% during the third quarter 2022. See information included in “Non – GAAP Measures” below for a discussion of the non-GAAP measure and reconciliation of revenue to revenue excluding foreign currency impacts.

ORDER BOOKINGS AND BACKLOG: The 5% increase in orders in the third quarter 2022 compared to 2021 is due to a 11% increase in volume, offset partially by a 6% unfavorable currency impact. The increase in bookings during the third quarter 2022 compared to 2021 is impacted by the recent acquisitions along with organic growth notably in our A&D and Industrial markets.

GROSS PROFIT AND GROSS MARGIN: Gross profit increased to $43,297 in the third quarter of 2022 from $32,021 in the third quarter of 2021 driven by higher sales volume, including the recent acquisitions, and gross margins increased to 32.2% for 2022, compared to 30.9% for 2021. The increase in gross margin percentage was driven by cost absorption on higher sales volume, pricing, and favorable mix, notably from recent acquisitions.

SELLING EXPENSES: Selling expenses increased 26% during the third quarter 2022 compared to 2021 primarily due to increased costs in connection with our recent acquisitions as well as sales commissions related to the increased revenue growth. Selling expenses as a percentage of revenues were 4% in the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES: General and administrative expenses increased by 23% during the third quarter 2022 compared to 2021 due primarily to increased costs related to the inclusion of our recent acquisitions. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses were 10% in the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

ENGINEERING AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES: Engineering and development expenses increased by 43% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to 2021. The increase is primarily due to the inclusion of our recent acquisitions along with our continued

23

investment in new product development. As a percentage of revenues, engineering and development expenses were 7% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT COSTS: The increase in business development costs in the third quarter 2022 compared to 2021 is largely due to increased costs related to the recent acquisition activities and manufacturing footprint rationalization, offset by a reduction to acquisition contingent consideration of $800, as described in Note 12, Fair Value, of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2022.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS: Amortization of intangible assets increased in the third quarter 2022 compared to 2021 due to incremental intangible amortization attributable to the recent acquisitions.

INTEREST EXPENSE: Interest expense increased in the third quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 due to a combination of increased average debt levels due to funding of acquisition activity, and to a lesser extent, higher interest rates, offset in part by interest rate swaps.

INCOME TAXES: The effective income tax rate was 27.5% and 24.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 does not include significant discrete tax items, and the three months ended September 30, 2021 includes a discrete tax benefit of (2.9%). The discrete tax benefit for the third quarter of 2021 is primarily related to the net amount recognized of Portuguese investment tax credits. The Company expects its income tax rate for the full year 2022 to be approximately 25% to 27%.

NET INCOME AND ADJUSTED NET INCOME: Net income increased during the third quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, due in large part to organic growth as well as the recent acquisitions, as reflected primarily in our gross profit increase, and partially offset by subsequent increases to intangible amortization as well as an increase in interest expense.

Adjusted net income for the quarters ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $9,683 and $7,146, respectively. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of 2022 and 2021 were $0.60 and $0.49, respectively. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures. See information included in “Non–GAAP Measures” below for a discussion of the non-GAAP measure and reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income and diluted earnings per share to adjusted diluted earnings per share.

EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA: EBITDA was $18,146 for the third quarter 2022 compared to $13,126 for the third quarter 2021. Adjusted EBITDA was $19,864 and $14,454 for the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. EBITDA consists of income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation expense, foreign currency gain/loss and certain other items. Refer to information included in “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a discussion of the non-GAAP measure and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

REVENUES: The increase in revenues for the year-to-date 2022 reflects increases in our Industrial and A&D served markets and includes the impact of the recent acquisitions. Our revenues for the period ended September 30, 2022 were comprised of 58% to U.S. customers and 42% to customers primarily in Europe, Canada, and Asia-Pacific. The overall increase in revenue was due to a 26% volume increase offset partially by a 5% unfavorable currency impact. Organic growth was 10% during the year-to-date 2022. See information included in “Non – GAAP Measures” below for a discussion of the non-GAAP measure and reconciliation of revenue to revenue excluding foreign currency impacts.

ORDER BOOKINGS AND BACKLOG: The 19% increase in orders for the year-to-date 2022 compared to 2021 is due to a 24% increase in volume, offset partially by a 5% unfavorable currency impact. The increase in bookings during year-to-date 2022 compared to 2021 is impacted by the recent acquisitions along with organic growth notably in our A&D and Industrial markets.

GROSS PROFIT AND GROSS MARGIN: Gross profit increased to $116,641 for year-to-date 2022 from $93,306 in 2021 driven by higher sales volume, including the recent acquisitions, and gross margins increased to 31.3% for 2022, compared to 30.4% for 2021. The increase in gross margin percentage was driven by cost absorption on higher sales volume, pricing, and favorable mix, notably from recent acquisitions.

SELLING EXPENSES: Selling expenses increased 26% during year-to-date 2022 compared to 2021 primarily due to increased costs in connection with our recent acquisitions as well as sales commissions related to the increased revenue growth. Selling expenses as a percentage of revenues were comparable at 4% during year-to-date 2022 and 2021.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES: General and administrative expenses increased by 14% during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 due primarily to increased costs related to the inclusion of our recent acquisitions. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses were 10% and 11% in 2022 and 2021, respectively.

ENGINEERING AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES: Engineering and development expenses increased by 38% during the year-to-date 2022 compared to 2021. The increase is due primarily to the inclusion and nature of our recent acquisitions along with our continued investment in new product development. As a percentage of revenues, engineering and development expenses were 8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

25

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT COSTS: The increase in business development costs for year-to-date 2022 compared to 2021 is due to increased costs related to the recent acquisition activities and manufacturing footprint rationalization, offset by a reduction to acquisition contingent consideration of $800.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS: Amortization of intangible assets increased for year-to-date 2022 compared to 2021 due to incremental intangible amortization attributable to the recent acquisitions.

INTEREST EXPENSE: The increase in interest expense for the year-to-date 2022 compared to 2021 is primarily due to an increase in average debt levels to fund acquisitions combined, to a lesser extent, with increased interest rates, offset in part by interest rate swaps.

INCOME TAXES: For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the effective income tax rate was 26.3% and (14.2%), respectively. The effective tax rate includes a discrete tax benefit of (1.7%) and (41.3%), respectively. The discrete benefit in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is primarily related to the reversal of uncertain tax positions and share-based payment awards. The discrete benefit in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is related primarily to the recognition of net operating loss carryforwards resulting from tax legislation enacted in New Zealand during the period, which changes our ability to use the carryforwards in future periods.

NET INCOME AND ADJUSTED NET INCOME: Net income decreased during year-to-date 2022 compared to 2021, despite increased gross profit, primarily due to the effect of a $7,373 discrete income tax benefit in the first quarter of 2021 that was not present in year-to-date 2022, as well as incremental business development costs and amortization of intangible assets of $2,196 and $3,606, respectively, due to acquisition-related activity, as well as higher interest expense.

Adjusted net income for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $23,039 and $18,803, respectively. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for year-to-date 2022 and 2021 were $1.45 and $1.30, respectively. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures. See information included in “Non–GAAP Measures” below for a discussion of the non-GAAP measure and reconciliation of net income to Adjusted net income and diluted earnings per share to Adjusted diluted earnings per share.

EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA: EBITDA was $42,693 for year-to-date 2022 compared to $35,491 for year-to-date 2021. Adjusted EBITDA was $48,963 and $38,817 for year-to-date 2022 and 2021, respectively. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. EBITDA consists of income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation expense, foreign currency gain/loss and certain other items. Refer to information included in “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a discussion of the non-GAAP measure and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP Measures

Revenue excluding foreign currency exchange impacts, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are provided for information purposes only and are not measures of financial performance under 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 as distinct from results that include items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results. In particular, those charges and credits that are not directly related to operating unit 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 revenue and net income determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP, nor is it 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 the Company’s future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to net income determined in accordance with GAAP.

The Company believes that revenue excluding foreign currency exchange impacts is a useful measure in analyzing sales results. The Company excludes the effect of currency translation from revenue for this measure because currency translation is not under management’s control, is subject to volatility and can obscure underlying business trends. The portion of revenue attributable to currency translation is calculated as the difference between the current period revenue and the current period revenue after applying foreign exchange rates from the prior period.

The Company believes EBITDA is often a useful measure of a Company’s operating performance and is a significant basis used by the Company’s management to measure the operating performance of the Company’s business because EBITDA excludes charges for

26

depreciation, amortization and interest expense that have resulted from our debt financings, acquisitions, as well as our provision for income tax expense. EBITDA is frequently used as one of the bases for comparing businesses in the Company’s industry.

The Company also believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides helpful information about the operating performance of its business. Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense, as well as business development costs, foreign currency gains/losses on short-term assets and liabilities, and other items that are not indicative of the Company’s core operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure for determining operating performance or liquidity that is calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Management uses Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share to assess the Company’s consolidated financial and operating performance. Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are provided for informational purposes only and are not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. These measures help management make decisions that are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieving optimal financial performance. Adjusted net income provides management with a measure of financial performance of the Company based on operational factors as it removes the impact of certain non-routine items from the Company’s operating results. Adjusted diluted earnings per share provides management with an indication of how Adjusted net income would be reflected on a per share basis for comparison to the GAAP diluted earnings per share measure. Adjusted net income is a key metric used by senior management and the Company’s board of directors to review the consolidated financial performance of the business. This measure adjusts net income determined in accordance with GAAP to reflect changes in financial results associated with the highlighted expense and income items.

Of the $19,705 of cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2022, $15,336 was located at our foreign subsidiaries and may be subject to withholding tax if repatriated back to the U.S.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in cash used in operating activities is primarily due to working capital needs, primarily for inventories due to strategic decisions to secure critical components given the current supply chain environment.

The increase in cash used in investing activities in 2022 relates to the $44,569 net cash consideration paid for the ThinGap, FPH and Airex acquisitions in the second quarter. Cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 includes $11,026 for purchases of property and equipment compared to $9,761 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Capital expenditures are expected to be between $15,000 and $20,000 for the full year 2022.

The increase in cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 includes Amended Revolving Facility borrowings of $47,583 to fund the three acquisitions in the second quarter of 2022. Debt payments of $6,514 were made during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. At September 30, 2022, we had $223,132 of obligations under the Amended Revolving Facility, excluding deferred financing costs.

The Amended Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants related to minimum interest coverage, total leverage ratio, and non-material subsidiaries assets to consolidated total assets at the end of each quarter. The Amended Credit Agreement also includes

28

other covenants and restrictions, including limits on the amount of additional indebtedness, and restrictions on the ability to merge, consolidate or sell all, or substantially all, of our assets. The Amended Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require that the Company maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company’s Leverage Ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter shall not be greater than 4.0 to 1.0 ratio (reduced to 3.5:1.0 for quarters ending on or after December 31, 2023); provided that the Company may elect to temporarily increase the Leverage Ratio by 0.5x during the twelve-month period following a material acquisition under the Amended Credit Agreement (“acquisition leverage increase”), subject to certain exceptions.  The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2022.

As of September 30, 2022, the unused Amended Revolving Facility was $56,863. The amount available to borrow may be limited by our debt and EBITDA levels, which impacts our covenant calculations. The Amended Credit Agreement matures in February 2025.

There were no borrowings under the China Facility during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The Company declared dividends of $0.075 and $0.07 per share during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company’s working capital, capital expenditure and dividend requirements are expected to be funded from cash provided by operations and amounts available under the Amended Credit Agreement.

Although there is ongoing uncertainty related to the current conflict in Ukraine and the continued impact of COVID-19 and variants on our future results, we believe our diverse markets, our strong market position in many of our businesses, and the steps we have taken to strengthen our balance sheet leaves us well-positioned to manage our business through the crisis as it continues to unfold. We continually assess our liquidity and cash positions and have assessed the impact of COVID-19 on our Company. Based on our analysis, we believe our existing balances of cash, the flexibility of our Amended Credit Agreement and our currently anticipated operating cash flows will be more than sufficient to meet our cash needs arising in the ordinary course of business for the next twelve months.

Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Foreign Currency

We have international operations in The Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, China, Portugal, Canada, Czech Republic, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand which expose us to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations due to transactions denominated in Euros, Swedish Krona, Chinese Renminbi, Canadian dollar, Czech Krona, Mexican pesos, British Pound Sterling, and New Zealand dollar, respectively. We continuously evaluate our foreign currency risk, and we take action from time to time in order to best mitigate these risks. A hypothetical 10% change in the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to our most significant foreign currency exposures would have had an impact of approximately $4,507 on our sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and $12,760 on our sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This amount is not indicative of the hypothetical net earnings impact due to partially offsetting impacts on cost of sales and operating expenses in those currencies. We estimate that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations during the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased revenues in comparison to the quarter ended September 30, 2021 by $7,173. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we estimate that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations increased revenues $15,577 in 2022 compared to 2021.

We translate all assets and liabilities of our foreign operations, where the U.S. dollar is not the functional currency, at the period-end exchange rate and translate sales and expenses at the average exchange rates in effect during the period. The net effect of these translation adjustments is recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements as comprehensive (loss) income. The translation adjustment were losses of $9,603 and $2,528 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The translation adjustment were losses of $19,535 and $5,580 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Translation adjustments are not adjusted for income taxes as they relate to permanent investments in our foreign subsidiaries. A hypothetical 10% change in the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to our most significant foreign currency net assets would have had an impact of approximately $13,895 on our foreign net assets as of September 30, 2022.

We have contracts to hedge our short-term balance sheet exposure, primarily intercompany, that are denominated in currencies (Euro, Mexican Peso, New Zealand Dollar, Chinese Renminbi, Swedish Krona) other than the subsidiary’s functional currency and are adjusted to current values using period-end exchange rates. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in other (income) expense, net in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive (loss) income. To minimize foreign currency exposure, the Company had foreign currency contracts with notional amounts of $17,250 at September 30, 2022. The foreign currency contracts are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value and resulting gains or losses are recorded in other expense (income), net in the

condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive (loss) income. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded losses of $1,031 and $1,728, respectively, on foreign currency contracts which are included in other (income) expense, net and generally offset the gains or losses from the foreign currency adjustments on the intercompany balances that are also included in other (income) expense, net. Net foreign currency transaction gains and losses included in other expense, net amounted to a loss of $257 and a gain of $69 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Net foreign currency transaction gains and losses included in other expense, net amounted to a loss of $54 and gain of $42 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Interest Rates

Interest rates on our Amended Credit Agreement are based on Term SOFR plus a margin of 1.00% to 2.25% (2.25% at September 30, 2022), depending on the Company’s ratio of total funded indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA. We use interest rate derivatives to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. We primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. In February 2017, the Company entered into three interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $40,000 that matured in February 2022. In March 2020, the Company entered into two additional interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $20,000 that increased to $60,000 in March 2022 and matures in December 2024. In March 2022 the Company entered into an additional interest rate swap with a notional amount of $40,000 that matures in December 2026.

As of September 30, 2022, we had $223,132 outstanding under the Amended Revolving Facility (excluding deferred financing fees), of which $100,000 is currently being hedged. Refer to Note 10, Debt Obligations, of the notes to consolidated financial statements for additional information about our outstanding debt. A hypothetical one percentage point (100 basis points) change in the Base Rate on the $123,132 of unhedged floating rate debt outstanding at September 30, 2022 would have approximately a $300 and $900 impact on our interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Conclusion regarding the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (principal accounting officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2022. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Based on management’s evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
