THE MIDDLEBY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 29, 2024
(Unaudited)
1)Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a)Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by The Middleby Corporation (the "company" or “Middleby”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The financial statements are unaudited and certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in the company's 2023 Form 10-K. The company’s interim results are not necessarily indicative of future full year results for the fiscal year 2024.
In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the company as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, cash flows for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 and statement of stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023.
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires the company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to, allowances for doubtful accounts, reserves for excess and obsolete inventories, long-lived and intangible assets, warranty reserves, insurance reserves, income tax reserves, non-cash share-based compensation and post-retirement obligations. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed in the notes herein.
b)Non-Cash Share-Based Compensation
The company estimates the fair value of market-based stock awards and stock options at the time of grant and recognizes compensation cost over the vesting period of the awards and options. Non-cash share-based compensation expense was $7.6 million and $9.9 million for the three months period ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Non-cash share-based compensation expense was $21.5 million and $22.1 million for the six months period ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
c)Income Taxes
A tax provision of $39.4 million, at an effective rate of 25.4%, was recorded during the three months period ended June 29, 2024, as compared to a $39.3 million tax provision at an effective rate of 25.2% in the prior year period. A tax provision of $67.7 million, at an effective rate of 25.1%, was recorded during the six months period ended June 29, 2024 as compared to a $72.1 million tax provision at an effective rate of 25.0% in the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the three months period ended June 29, 2024 is higher than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to state taxes and foreign tax rate differentials.

5

d)Fair Value Measures 
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into the following levels:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs based the company's own assumptions.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy are as follows (in thousands):
Fair Value
Level 1		Fair Value
Level 2		Fair Value
Level 3		Total
As of June 29, 2024
Financial Assets:
 Interest rate swaps$— $42,922 $— $42,922 
Financial Liabilities:
    Contingent consideration$— $— $47,580 $47,580 
    Foreign exchange derivative contracts$— $445 $— $445 
As of December 30, 2023
Financial Assets:
    Interest rate swaps$— $42,779 $— $42,779 
 Foreign exchange derivative contracts$— $29 $— $29 
Financial Liabilities:
    Contingent consideration$— $— $51,538 $51,538 
The contingent consideration as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, relates to the earnout provisions recorded in conjunction with various purchase agreements.
Earn-out liabilities are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, as the methodology used to estimate fair value includes significant unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions. The earnout provisions associated with these acquisitions are based upon performance measurements related to sales and earnings, as defined in the respective purchase agreement. On a quarterly basis, the company assesses the projected results for each of the acquisitions in comparison to the earnout targets and adjusts the liability accordingly. Discount rates for valuing contingent consideration are determined based on the company rates and specific acquisition risk considerations. Changes in fair value associated with the earnout provisions are recognized in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
The following table represents changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities:

June 29, 2024
Beginning balance$51,538 
Payments of contingent consideration(1,745)
Changes in fair value(2,213)
Ending balance$47,580

e)    Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
Cash paid for interest was $51.1 million and $62.1 million for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Cash payments totaling $48.1 million and $90.1 million were made for income taxes for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
Other non-cash items in the adjustments to reconcile net earnings to net cash provided by operating activities consists primarily of unrealized foreign exchange on non-functional currency third party debt.
f)    Earnings Per Share
“Basic earnings per share” is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares actually outstanding, and “diluted earnings per share” is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and other dilutive securities.
The company’s potentially dilutive securities consist of shares issuable on vesting of restricted stock grants computed using the treasury method and amounted to 6,000 and 5,000 for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
The company’s potentially dilutive securities consist of shares issuable on vesting of restricted stock grants computed using the treasury method and amounted to 4,000 for both the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
For the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, the average market price of the company's common stock exceeded the exercise price of the Convertible Notes (as defined below) resulting in 519,000 and 645,000 diluted common stock equivalents to be included in the diluted net earnings per share, respectively. There have been no material conversions to date. See Note 12, Financing Arrangements for further details on the Convertible Notes. There were no anti-dilutive restricted stock grants excluded from common stock equivalents in any period presented.
7

2)    Acquisitions and Purchase Accounting
The company accounts for all business combinations using the acquisition method to record a new cost basis for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill in the financial statements. The company recognizes identifiable intangible assets, primarily trade names and customer relationships, at their fair value using a discounted cash flow model. The significant assumptions used to estimate the value of the intangible assets include revenue growth rates, projected profit margins, discount rates, royalty rates, and customer attrition rates. These significant assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. The results of operations are reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the company from the dates of acquisition.
2023 Acquisitions
During 2023, the company completed various acquisitions that were not individually material. The final allocation of consideration paid for the 2023 acquisitions is summarized as follows (in thousands):
Preliminary Opening Balance SheetMeasurement

Consideration paid at closing$90,948 $1,018 $91,966 
Contingent consideration14,743 216 14,959 
Net assets acquired and liabilities assumed$105,691 $1,234 $106,925 
The net long-term deferred tax liability amounted to $0.9 million. The net deferred tax liability is comprised of $0.3 million related to the difference between the book and tax basis of identifiable intangible assets and $0.6 million related to the difference between the book and tax basis on identifiable tangible asset and liability accounts.
The goodwill and $17.9 million of other intangibles associated with the trade names are subject to the non-amortization provisions of ASC 350. Other intangibles also include $7.2 million allocated to customer relationships, $7.9 million allocated to developed technology, and $0.6 million allocated to backlog, which are being amortized over periods of 7 years, 7 to 12 years, and 9 months, respectively. Goodwill of $18.0 million and other intangibles of $7.8 million are allocated to the Food Processing Equipment Group for segment reporting purposes. Goodwill of $9.9 million and other intangibles of $14.1 million are allocated to the Commercial Foodservice Equipment Group for segment reporting purposes. Goodwill of $13.8 million and other intangibles of $11.7 million are allocated to the Residential Kitchen Equipment Group for segment reporting purposes. Of these assets, goodwill of $40.0 million and intangibles of $32.2 million are expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
Four purchase agreements include earnout provisions providing for a contingent payment due to the sellers for the achievement of certain targets. Four earnouts are payable to the extent certain sales and EBITDA targets are met with measurement dates ending between 2024 and 2026. One earnout is payable upon the achievement of certain product rollout targets specific to the year of measurement. The contractual obligation associated with the contingent earnout provisions recognized on the acquisition date amount to $15.0 million.

2024 Acquisitions
During 2024, the company completed various acquisitions that were not individually material. The following estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on the information that was available as of the acquisition date for the 2024 acquisitions and are summarized as follows (in thousands):
Preliminary Opening Balance Sheet
Cash$1 
Current assets1,676 
Property, plant and equipment383 
Goodwill945 
Other intangibles568 
Current liabilities(222)
Consideration paid at closing3,351 
Net assets acquired and liabilities assumed$3,351 
The goodwill and $0.3 million of other intangibles associated with the trade name are subject to the non-amortization provisions of ASC 350. Other intangibles also include $0.3 million allocated to customer relationships, which is being amortized over a period of 5 years. Goodwill of $0.9 million and other intangibles of $0.6 million are allocated to the Food Processing Equipment Group for segment reporting purposes. Of these assets, goodwill of $0.5 million and intangibles of $0.6 million are expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The company believes that information gathered to date provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, but the company is waiting for additional information necessary to finalize those fair values for the acquisitions completed during 2024. Certain intangible assets are preliminarily valued using historical information from the Food Processing Equipment Group and qualitative assessment of the business at acquisition date. Specifically, the company estimated the fair values of the intangible assets based on the percentage of purchase price assigned to similar intangible assets in previous acquisitions. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair values set forth above are subject to change. The company expects to complete the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

The historical consolidated financial information of the company and the acquisitions have been adjusted in the pro forma information to give effect to events that are (1) directly attributable to the transactions, (2) factually supportable and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. Pro forma data may not be indicative of the results that would have been obtained had these acquisitions occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, nor is it intended to be a projection of future results. Additionally, the pro forma financial information does not reflect the costs which the company has incurred or may incur to integrate the acquired businesses.
3)    Litigation Matters
Legal Proceedings and Contingencies.
From time to time, the company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits and other claims related to products, suppliers, employees, customers and competitors. The company maintains insurance to partially cover product liability, workers compensation, property and casualty, and general liability matters. The company is required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters as well as potential ranges of probable losses.
A determination of the amount of accrual required, if any, for these contingencies is made after assessment of each matter and the related insurance coverage. The required accrual may change in the future due to new developments or changes in approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters. The company does not believe that any pending litigation will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
4)    Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendment requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker, as well as disclosure of the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments in this update are required to be applied on a retrospective basis. The company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU includes amendments requiring enhanced income tax disclosures, primarily related to standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures.
In March 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued its final climate disclosure rules. The rules require disclosure of climate-related information outside of the audited financial statements and disclosure in the footnotes addressing specified financial statement effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions above certain financial thresholds, certain carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates, if material.
In April 2024, the SEC determined to voluntarily stay the final rules pending certain legal challenges. The company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption for the new rules and intends to include the updated climate-related disclosures in future filings when required.

5)    Revenue Recognition

Disaggregation of Revenue

The company disaggregates its net sales by reportable operating segment and geographical location as the company believes it best depicts how the nature, timing and uncertainty of its net sales and cash flows are affected by economic factors. In general, the Commercial Foodservice Equipment and Residential Foodservice Equipment Groups recognize revenue at the point in time control transfers to their customers based on contractual shipping terms. Revenue from equipment sold under the company's long-term contracts within the Food Processing Equipment group is recognized over time as the equipment is manufactured and assembled. The following table summarizes the company's net sales by reportable operating segment and geographical location (in thousands):

Contract Balances

Contract assets primarily relate to the company's right to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date and are recorded in prepaid expenses and other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Contract assets are transferred to receivables when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Accounts receivable are not considered contract assets under the revenue standard as contract assets are conditioned upon the company's future satisfaction of a performance obligation. Accounts receivable, in contracts, are unconditional rights to consideration.

Contract liabilities relate to advance consideration received from customers for which revenue has not been recognized. Current contract liabilities are recorded in accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Non-current contract liabilities are recorded in other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Contract liabilities are reduced when the associated revenue from the contract is recognized.

The following table provides information about contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers (in thousands):

Non-current contract liabilities$14,746 $15,721 

During the six months period ended June 29, 2024, the company reclassified $30.2 million to receivables, which was included in the contract asset balance at the beginning of the period. During the six months period ended June 29, 2024, the company recognized revenue of $49.9 million which was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. Additions to contract liabilities representing amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized to date were $84.9 million during the six months period ended June 29, 2024.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Substantially all of the company's outstanding performance obligations will be satisfied within 12 to 36 months. There were no contract asset impairments during the six months period ended June 29, 2024.

11)    Warranty Costs
In the normal course of business, the company issues product warranties for specific product lines and provides for the estimated future warranty cost in the period in which the sale is recorded. The estimate of warranty cost is based on contract terms and historical warranty loss experience that is periodically adjusted for recent actual experience. Because warranty estimates are forecasts that are based on the best available information, actual claims costs may differ from amounts provided. Adjustments to initial obligations for warranties are made as changes in the obligations become reasonably estimable.

Credit Facility
As of June 29, 2024, the company had $1.7 billion of borrowings outstanding under its credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), including $937.5 million outstanding under the term loan ($934.1 million, net of unamortized issuance fees) and $717.2 million outstanding under the delayed draw term loan. The company also had $4.9 million in outstanding letters of credit as of June 29, 2024, which reduces the borrowing availability under the Credit Facility. Remaining borrowing capacity under this facility was $2.8 billion at June 29, 2024.
On August 11, 2022, the company borrowed $750.0 million against the delayed draw term facility as provided under the Credit Agreement. The funds were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under the revolver. The delayed draw term loan amortizes in quarterly installments due on the last day of each fiscal quarter, and commenced on December 31, 2022, in an amount equal to 0.625% of the principal drawn, with the balance, plus any accrued interest payable by October 21, 2026.
At June 29, 2024, borrowings under the Credit Facility accrued interest at a rate of 1.375% above the daily simple or term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) per annum or 0.375% above the highest of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and one month Term SOFR plus 1.00%. The interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Facility may be adjusted quarterly based on the company’s Funded Debt less Unrestricted Cash to Pro Forma EBITDA (the “Leverage Ratio”) on a rolling four-quarter basis. Additionally, a commitment fee based upon the Leverage Ratio is charged on the unused portion of the commitments under the Credit Facility. As of June 29, 2024, borrowings under the Credit Facility accrued interest at a minimum of 1.375% above SOFR and the variable unused commitment fee will be at a minimum of 0.20%. Borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at a minimum of 1.375% above the daily simple SOFR or term SOFR for the applicable interest period (each of which includes a spread adjustment of 0.10%). The average interest rate per annum, inclusive of hedging instruments, on the debt under the Credit Facility was equal to 5.18% at the end of the period and the variable commitment fee was equal to 0.20% per annum as of June 29, 2024.
The term loan and delayed draw term loan facilities had an average interest rate per annum, inclusive of hedging instruments, of 5.18% as of June 29, 2024.
In addition, the company has international credit facilities to fund working capital needs outside the United States. At June 29, 2024, these foreign credit facilities amounted to $9.1 million in U.S. Dollars with a weighted average per annum interest rate of approximately 2.41%.

The company’s debt is reflected on the balance sheet at cost. The fair values of the Credit Facility, term debt and foreign and other debt is based on the amount of future cash flows associated with each instrument discounted using the company's incremental borrowing rate. The company believes its interest rate margins, based on the company’s Leverage Ratio, on its existing debt are consistent with current market conditions and therefore the carrying value of debt reflects the fair value. The carrying value and estimated aggregate fair value, a level 2 measurement, based primarily on market prices, of debt excluding the Convertible Notes is as follows (in thousands):

Total debt excluding convertible senior notes$1,660,959 $1,664,356 $1,683,694 $1,687,781

The company uses floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements to hedge variable interest rate risk associated with the Credit Facility. At June 29, 2024, the company had outstanding floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps totaling $70.0 million notional amount carrying an average interest rate of 2.19% maturing in less than 12 months and $670.0 million notional amount carrying an average interest rate of 1.64% that mature in more than 12 months but less than 44 months.

At June 29, 2024, the company was in compliance with all covenants pursuant to its borrowing agreements.

Total interest expense$2,736 $2,766 $5,502 $5,534 
The estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes was $800.0 million as of June 29, 2024 and was determined through consideration of quoted market prices. The fair value is classified as Level 2, as defined in Note 1(d), Fair Value Measurements, in these Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statement. The if-converted value of the Convertible Notes did not exceed their respective principal value as of June 29, 2024.

Capped Call Transactions
In connection with the pricing of the Convertible Notes, the company entered into privately negotiated Capped Call Transactions (the "2020 Capped Call Transactions") and the company used the net proceeds of the offering of the Convertible Notes to pay the aggregate amount of $104.7 million for them. The company entered into two tranches of privately negotiated Capped Call Transactions in December 2021 (the "2021 Capped Call Transactions") in the aggregate amount of $54.6 million. On March 15, 2022, the company entered into an additional tranche of privately negotiated Capped Call Transactions (the "2022 Capped Call Transactions") in the amount of $9.7 million.
The 2020, 2021, and 2022 Capped Call Transactions (collectively, the "Capped Call Transactions") are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution and/or offset the cash payments the company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes upon conversion of the Convertible Notes in the event that the market price per share of the company's common stock is greater than the strike price of the Capped Call Transactions (which initially corresponds to the initial conversion price of the Convertible Notes and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions), with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap based on the cap price of the Capped Call Transactions. The 2020 Capped Call Transactions have an initial cap price of $207.93 per share of the company's common stock. The 2021 Capped Call Transactions have initial cap prices of $216.50 and $225.00 per share of the company's common stock. The 2022 Capped Call Transactions have an initial cap price of $229.00 per share. The Capped Call Transactions cover, initially, the number of shares of the company's common stock underlying the Convertible Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Convertible Notes.

17

The Capped Call Transactions are separate transactions entered into by the company with the capped call counterparties, and are not part of the terms of the Convertible Notes and will not affect any holder's right under the Convertible Notes. Holders of the Convertible Notes will not have any rights with respect to the Capped Call Transactions. The Capped Call Transactions do not meet the criteria for separate accounting as a derivative as they are indexed to the company's stock. The premiums paid of the Capped Call Transactions have been included as a net reduction to additional paid-in capital with stockholders' equity.
13)    Financial Instruments
Foreign Exchange: The company uses foreign currency forward, foreign exchange swaps and option purchase and sales contracts to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The company’s primary hedging activities are to mitigate its exposure to changes in exchange rates on intercompany and third-party trade receivables and payables. The company does not currently enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. In managing its foreign currency exposures, the company identifies and aggregates naturally occurring offsetting positions and then hedges residual balance sheet exposures. The notional amount of foreign currency contracts outstanding was $242.1 million and $253.1 million as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The fair value of the forward and option contracts was a loss of $0.4 million at the end of the second quarter of 2024.
Interest Rate: The company has entered into interest rate swaps to fix the interest rate applicable to certain of its variable-rate debt. The agreements swapped one-month LIBOR for fixed rates. In February 2022, the company entered into an additional floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement that uses a daily SOFR in lieu of LIBOR. In April 2023, all outstanding LIBOR swap agreements were amended to one month term SOFR. The company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and all changes in fair value of the swaps are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. As of June 29, 2024, the fair value of these instruments was an asset of $42.9 million. The change in fair value of these swap agreements in the first six months of 2024 was a gain of $1.0 million, net of taxes.

Interest rate swaps are subject to default risk to the extent the counterparties are unable to satisfy their settlement obligations under the interest rate swap agreements. As a result, the company has counterparty credit exposure to large global financial institutions, which the company monitors on a regular basis.

Current Events

Inflation and Interest Rate Environment

The company has been negatively impacted by inflation in wages, logistics, energy, raw materials and component costs. Price increases and pricing strategies have been implemented to mitigate the impact of cost inflation on margins and the company continues to actively monitor costs. High inflation and uncertainty surrounding the Federal Reserve's interest rate policy decisions led to increased interest rates in 2023 and into the first quarter of 2024, which combined with global macroeconomic uncertainty, has and may continue to impact customer demand. Most notably in our residential segment, we have faced recent demand headwinds due to macroeconomic conditions. Even in light of such headwinds, we remain focused on delivering strong financial results and executing on our long-term strategy and profitability objectives.

Supply Chain, Labor and Logistics Constraints

The company continues to actively monitor global supply chain, labor and logistics constraints, which have had a negative impact on the company's ability to source parts and complete and ship units. While the company is seeing improvement on certain supply chain and logistics constraints, supply chains for certain key components remain distressed. The decreased availability of resources and inflationary costs have resulted in heightened inventory levels. To combat these pressures, the company has evaluated alternative sourcing, dual sourcing and collaborated across the organization, where appropriate, without materially presenting new risks or increasing current risks around quality and reliability. Our capital resources have been and the company expects they will continue to be sufficient to address these challenges.

The decrease in domestic sales is driven primarily by protein products. International sales increased $12.0 million, or 10.1%, to $130.4 million, as compared to $118.4 million in the prior year period. This includes an increase of $1.1 million from the recent acquisitions and an increase of $0.2 million related to the favorable impact of exchange rates. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange and acquisitions, the net sales increase in international sales was $10.7 million, or 9.0%. The increase in international sales reflects growth driven primarily by protein products.
•Net sales of the Residential Kitchen Equipment Group decreased by $58.8 million, or 13.8%, to $366.7 million in the six months period ended June 29, 2024, as compared to $425.5 million in the prior year period.

This includes an increase of $1.8 million related to the favorable impact of exchange rates. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange and acquisitions, the net sales decrease in international sales was $13.7 million, or 9.3%. The decrease in net sales was primarily driven by challenging market conditions domestically and in the European markets.
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit decreased to $726.0 million in the six months period ended June 29, 2024 as compared to $772.0 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by lower sales volumes at the Commercial Foodservice Equipment Group and Residential Kitchen Equipment Group. The impact of foreign exchange rates increased gross profit by approximately $0.4 million. The gross margin rate was 37.8% in the six months period ended June 29, 2024 as compared to 37.7% in the six months period ended July 1, 2023 primarily reflecting improved product mix.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Combined selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $404.6 million in the six months period ended June 29, 2024, as compared to $418.9 million in the six months period ended July 1, 2023. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general, and administrative expenses were 21.1% in the six months period ended June 29, 2024, as compared to 20.5% in the six months period ended July 1, 2023.

Selling, general and administrative expenses reflect increased costs of $3.4 million associated with acquisitions, including $0.5 million of intangible amortization expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $4.6 million related to intangible amortization expense, $4.1 million related to professional fees and $5.8 million related to reduced compensation costs including commissions. Foreign exchange rates had an unfavorable impact of $0.5 million.

RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES. Restructuring expenses increased $1.2 million to $8.5 million in the six months period ended June 29, 2024 from $7.3 million in the six months period ended July 1, 2023. Restructuring expenses in the six months period ended June 29, 2024 related primarily to headcount reductions and facility consolidations within all three segments. Restructuring expenses in the six months period ended July 1, 2023 related primarily to headcount reductions and facility consolidations within the Residential Kitchen Equipment Group and Commercial Foodservice Equipment Group.

NON-OPERATING EXPENSES. Interest and deferred financing amortization costs were $50.8 million in the six months period ended June 29, 2024, as compared to $61.0 million in the prior year period, reflecting the decrease in debt levels on our current debt structure. Net periodic pension benefit (other than service costs) increased $2.6 million to $7.4 million in the six months period ended June 29, 2024, as compared to $4.8 million in the prior year period related to the decrease in discount rate used to calculate the interest cost and increase in expected return on assets as a result of the higher assets value. Other income was $0.2 million in the six months period ended June 29, 2024, as compared to other expense of $1.6 million in the prior year period and consists mainly of foreign exchange gains and losses.
INCOME TAXES. A tax provision of $67.7 million, at an effective rate of 25.1%, was recorded during the six months period ended June 29, 2024, as compared to $72.1 million at an effective rate of 25.0%, in the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the six months period ended June 29, 2024 is higher than the prior period year rate primarily due to an increase in the UK statutory income tax rate from a 23.5% blended rate in 2023 to 25.0% in 2024.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

Total cash and cash equivalents increased by $212.0 million to $459.5 million at June 29, 2024 from $247.5 million at December 30, 2023. Total debt amounted to $2.4 billion at June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023.
 
OPERATING ACTIVITIES. Net cash provided by operating activities after changes in assets and liabilities amounted to $290.4 million as compared to $154.0 million in the prior year.
During the six months period ended June 29, 2024, working capital changes meaningfully impacted operating cash flows primarily driven by a decrease in accounts receivable of $14.8 million due to lower sales levels, decreased inventory levels of $7.7 million and an increase of $13.7 million in accounts payable.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES. During the six months period ended June 29, 2024, net cash used for investing activities amounted to $30.3 million. Cash used to fund acquisitions amounted to $5.6 million. Additionally, $24.7 million was expended, primarily for upgrades of production equipment and manufacturing facilities.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES. Net cash flows used for financing activities amounted to $42.7 million during the six months period ended June 29, 2024. The company’s borrowing activities during 2024 included $21.9 million of net repayments under its Credit Facility. Additionally, during 2024, the company used $18.0 million to repurchase 116,155 shares of Middleby common stock that were surrendered to the company for withholding taxes related to restricted stock vestings.
At June 29, 2024, the company was in compliance with all covenants pursuant to its borrowing agreements. The company believes that its current capital resources, including cash and cash equivalents, cash expected to be generated from operations, funds available from its current lenders and access to the credit and capital markets will be sufficient to finance its operations, debt service obligations, capital expenditures, product development and expenditures for the foreseeable future.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Part I, Item 1, Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 4 - Recently Issued Accounting Standards, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon the company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the company to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses as well as related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, the company evaluates its estimates and judgments based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such differences could be material to the company's consolidated financial statements. There have been no changes in the company's critical accounting policies, which include revenue recognition, inventories, goodwill and indefinite-life intangibles, convertible debt, pensions benefits, and income taxes, as discussed in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K”).

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk 
Interest Rate Risk 
The company is exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates. The following table summarizes the maturity of the company’s debt obligations:
Twelve Month Period coinciding with the end of the company's Fiscal Second Quarter

Variable Rate
Debt
 
2025$44,250 
2026787,030 
20271,567,497 
2028702 
2029 and thereafter4,767 
 $2,404,246 
The company is exposed to interest rate risk on its floating-rate debt. The company has entered into interest rate swaps to fix the interest rate applicable to certain of its variable-rate debt. The agreements swapped one-month LIBOR for fixed rates. In February 2022, the company entered into an additional floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement that uses a daily SOFR in lieu of LIBOR. In April 2023, all outstanding LIBOR swap agreements were amended to one month term SOFR. The company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and all changes in fair value of the swaps are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. As of June 29, 2024, the fair value of these instruments was an asset of $42.9 million. The change in fair value of these swap agreements in the first six months of 2024 was a gain of $1.0 million, net of taxes. The potential net loss on fair value for such instruments from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in quoted interest rates would not have a material impact on the company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The company has Convertible Notes that were issued in August 2020, which carry a fixed annual interest rate of 1.00%. As such, the company does not have economic interest rate exposure on the Convertible Notes. The fair value of the Convertible Notes is subject to interest rate risk, market risk and other factors due to its conversion feature. The fair value of the Convertible Notes is also affected by the price and volatility of the company’s common stock and will generally increase or decrease as the market price of our common stock changes. The interest and market value changes affect the fair value of the Convertible Notes but do not impact the company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations due to the fixed nature of the debt obligation. Additionally, the company carries the Convertible Notes at face value, less any unamortized discount on the balance sheet and presents the fair value for disclosure purposes only.
Foreign Exchange Derivative Financial Instruments
The company uses derivative financial instruments, principally foreign currency forward purchase and sale contracts with terms of less than one year, to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The company’s primary hedging activities are to mitigate its exposure to changes in exchange rates on intercompany and third-party trade receivables and payables. The company does not currently enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. In managing its foreign currency exposures, the company identifies and aggregates naturally occurring offsetting positions and then hedges residual balance sheet exposures. The potential net loss on fair value for such instruments from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in quoted foreign exchange rates would not have a material impact on the company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The fair value of the forward and option contracts was a loss of $0.4 million at the end of the second quarter of 2024.
30

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of June 29, 2024, the company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the company's management, including the company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of this period. 
During the quarter ended June 29, 2024, there has been no change in the company's internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the company's internal control over financial reporting.

(1) On November 7, 2017, the company's Board of Directors resolved to terminate the company's existing share repurchase program, effective as of such date, which was originally adopted in 1998, and approved a new stock repurchase program. This program authorizes the company to repurchase in the aggregate up to 2,500,000 shares of its outstanding common stock. In May 2022, the company's Board of Directors approved the repurchase of an additional 2,500,000 shares of its outstanding common stock under the current program. As of June 29, 2024, the total number of shares authorized for repurchase under the program is 5,000,000 shares. As of June 29, 2024, 3,116,364 shares had been purchased under the stock repurchase program and 1,883,636 shares remained authorized for repurchase. 

Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, in July 2024, the company's Board of Directors approved the repurchase of an additional 2,500,000 shares of its outstanding common stock under the current program, leaving 4,383,636 authorized shares available for repurchase.

In the consolidated financial statements, the company also treats shares withheld for tax purposes on behalf of employees in connection with the vesting of restricted share grants as common stock repurchases because they reduce the number of shares that would have been issued upon vesting. These withheld shares are not considered common stock repurchases under the authorized common stock repurchase plan and accordingly are not included in the common stock repurchase totals in the preceding table.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a)Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by The Middleby Corporation (the "company" or “Middleby”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The financial statements are unaudited and certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in the company's 2023 Form 10-K. The company’s interim results are not necessarily indicative of future full year results for the fiscal year 2024.
In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the company as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, cash flows for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 and statement of stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023.
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires the company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to, allowances for doubtful accounts, reserves for excess and obsolete inventories, long-lived and intangible assets, warranty reserves, insurance reserves, income tax reserves, non-cash share-based compensation and post-retirement obligations. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed in the notes herein.
b)Non-Cash Share-Based Compensation
The company estimates the fair value of market-based stock awards and stock options at the time of grant and recognizes compensation cost over the vesting period of the awards and options. Non-cash share-based compensation expense was $7.6 million and $9.9 million for the three months period ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Non-cash share-based compensation expense was $21.5 million and $22.1 million for the six months period ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
c)Income Taxes
A tax provision of $39.4 million, at an effective rate of 25.4%, was recorded during the three months period ended June 29, 2024, as compared to a $39.3 million tax provision at an effective rate of 25.2% in the prior year period. A tax provision of $67.7 million, at an effective rate of 25.1%, was recorded during the six months period ended June 29, 2024 as compared to a $72.1 million tax provision at an effective rate of 25.0% in the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the three months period ended June 29, 2024 is higher than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to state taxes and foreign tax rate differentials.
d)Fair Value Measures 
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into the following levels:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs based the company's own assumptions.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy are as follows (in thousands):
Fair Value
Level 1		Fair Value
Level 2		Fair Value
Level 3		Total
As of June 29, 2024
Financial Assets:
 Interest rate swaps$— $42,922 $— $42,922 
Financial Liabilities:

    Foreign exchange derivative contracts$— $445 $— $445

 Foreign exchange derivative contracts$— $29 $— $29 
Financial Liabilities:
    Contingent consideration$— $— $51,538 $51,538 
The contingent consideration as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, relates to the earnout provisions recorded in conjunction with various purchase agreements.
Earn-out liabilities are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, as the methodology used to estimate fair value includes significant unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions. The earnout provisions associated with these acquisitions are based upon performance measurements related to sales and earnings, as defined in the respective purchase agreement. On a quarterly basis, the company assesses the projected results for each of the acquisitions in comparison to the earnout targets and adjusts the liability accordingly. Discount rates for valuing contingent consideration are determined based on the company rates and specific acquisition risk considerations. Changes in fair value associated with the earnout provisions are recognized in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
The following table represents changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities:

June 29, 2024
Beginning balance$51,538 
Payments of contingent consideration(1,745)
Changes in fair value(2,213)
Ending balance$47,580 
e)    Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
Cash paid for interest was $51.1 million and $62.1 million for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Cash payments totaling $48.1 million and $90.1 million were made for income taxes for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
Other non-cash items in the adjustments to reconcile net earnings to net cash provided by operating activities consists primarily of unrealized foreign exchange on non-functional currency third party debt.
f)    Earnings Per Share
“Basic earnings per share” is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares actually outstanding, and “diluted earnings per share” is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and other dilutive securities.
The company’s potentially dilutive securities consist of shares issuable on vesting of restricted stock grants computed using the treasury method and amounted to 6,000 and 5,000 for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
The company’s potentially dilutive securities consist of shares issuable on vesting of restricted stock grants computed using the treasury method and amounted to 4,000 for both the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
For the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, the average market price of the company's common stock exceeded the exercise price of the Convertible Notes (as defined below) resulting in 519,000 and 645,000 diluted common stock equivalents to be included in the diluted net earnings per share, respectively. There have been no material conversions to date. See Note 12, Financing Arrangements for further details on the Convertible Notes. There were no anti-dilutive restricted stock grants excluded from common stock equivalents in any period presented.

Business Combinations [Abstract]  
Business Combination Disclosure Acquisitions and Purchase Accounting
The company accounts for all business combinations using the acquisition method to record a new cost basis for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill in the financial statements. The company recognizes identifiable intangible assets, primarily trade names and customer relationships, at their fair value using a discounted cash flow model. The significant assumptions used to estimate the value of the intangible assets include revenue growth rates, projected profit margins, discount rates, royalty rates, and customer attrition rates. These significant assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. The results of operations are reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the company from the dates of acquisition.
2023 Acquisitions
During 2023, the company completed various acquisitions that were not individually material. The final allocation of consideration paid for the 2023 acquisitions is summarized as follows (in thousands):

Net assets acquired and liabilities assumed$105,691 $1,234 $106,925 
The net long-term deferred tax liability amounted to $0.9 million. The net deferred tax liability is comprised of $0.3 million related to the difference between the book and tax basis of identifiable intangible assets and $0.6 million related to the difference between the book and tax basis on identifiable tangible asset and liability accounts.
The goodwill and $17.9 million of other intangibles associated with the trade names are subject to the non-amortization provisions of ASC 350. Other intangibles also include $7.2 million allocated to customer relationships, $7.9 million allocated to developed technology, and $0.6 million allocated to backlog, which are being amortized over periods of 7 years, 7 to 12 years, and 9 months, respectively. Goodwill of $18.0 million and other intangibles of $7.8 million are allocated to the Food Processing Equipment Group for segment reporting purposes. Goodwill of $9.9 million and other intangibles of $14.1 million are allocated to the Commercial Foodservice Equipment Group for segment reporting purposes. Goodwill of $13.8 million and other intangibles of $11.7 million are allocated to the Residential Kitchen Equipment Group for segment reporting purposes. Of these assets, goodwill of $40.0 million and intangibles of $32.2 million are expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
Four purchase agreements include earnout provisions providing for a contingent payment due to the sellers for the achievement of certain targets. Four earnouts are payable to the extent certain sales and EBITDA targets are met with measurement dates ending between 2024 and 2026. One earnout is payable upon the achievement of certain product rollout targets specific to the year of measurement. The contractual obligation associated with the contingent earnout provisions recognized on the acquisition date amount to $15.0 million.
2024 Acquisitions
During 2024, the company completed various acquisitions that were not individually material. The following estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on the information that was available as of the acquisition date for the 2024 acquisitions and are summarized as follows (in thousands):
Preliminary Opening Balance Sheet
Cash$1 
Current assets1,676 
Property, plant and equipment383 
Goodwill945 
Other intangibles568 
Current liabilities(222)
Consideration paid at closing3,351 
Net assets acquired and liabilities assumed$3,351 
The goodwill and $0.3 million of other intangibles associated with the trade name are subject to the non-amortization provisions of ASC 350. Other intangibles also include $0.3 million allocated to customer relationships, which is being amortized over a period of 5 years. Goodwill of $0.9 million and other intangibles of $0.6 million are allocated to the Food Processing Equipment Group for segment reporting purposes. Of these assets, goodwill of $0.5 million and intangibles of $0.6 million are expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The company believes that information gathered to date provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, but the company is waiting for additional information necessary to finalize those fair values for the acquisitions completed during 2024. Certain intangible assets are preliminarily valued using historical information from the Food Processing Equipment Group and qualitative assessment of the business at acquisition date. Specifically, the company estimated the fair values of the intangible assets based on the percentage of purchase price assigned to similar intangible assets in previous acquisitions. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair values set forth above are subject to change. The company expects to complete the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Legal Proceedings and Contingencies.
From time to time, the company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits and other claims related to products, suppliers, employees, customers and competitors. The company maintains insurance to partially cover product liability, workers compensation, property and casualty, and general liability matters. The company is required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters as well as potential ranges of probable losses.
A determination of the amount of accrual required, if any, for these contingencies is made after assessment of each matter and the related insurance coverage. The required accrual may change in the future due to new developments or changes in approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters. The company does not believe that any pending litigation will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The company disaggregates its net sales by reportable operating segment and geographical location as the company believes it best depicts how the nature, timing and uncertainty of its net sales and cash flows are affected by economic factors. In general, the Commercial Foodservice Equipment and Residential Foodservice Equipment Groups recognize revenue at the point in time control transfers to their customers based on contractual shipping terms. Revenue from equipment sold under the company's long-term contracts within the Food Processing Equipment group is recognized over time as the equipment is manufactured and assembled. The following table summarizes the company's net sales by reportable operating segment and geographical location (in thousands):

Contract Balances

Contract assets primarily relate to the company's right to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date and are recorded in prepaid expenses and other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Contract assets are transferred to receivables when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Accounts receivable are not considered contract assets under the revenue standard as contract assets are conditioned upon the company's future satisfaction of a performance obligation. Accounts receivable, in contracts, are unconditional rights to consideration.

Contract liabilities relate to advance consideration received from customers for which revenue has not been recognized. Current contract liabilities are recorded in accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Non-current contract liabilities are recorded in other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Contract liabilities are reduced when the associated revenue from the contract is recognized.

Warranty Costs Warranty Costs
In the normal course of business, the company issues product warranties for specific product lines and provides for the estimated future warranty cost in the period in which the sale is recorded. The estimate of warranty cost is based on contract terms and historical warranty loss experience that is periodically adjusted for recent actual experience. Because warranty estimates are forecasts that are based on the best available information, actual claims costs may differ from amounts provided. Adjustments to initial obligations for warranties are made as changes in the obligations become reasonably estimable.

Financial Instruments Financial Instruments
Foreign Exchange: The company uses foreign currency forward, foreign exchange swaps and option purchase and sales contracts to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The company’s primary hedging activities are to mitigate its exposure to changes in exchange rates on intercompany and third-party trade receivables and payables. The company does not currently enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. In managing its foreign currency exposures, the company identifies and aggregates naturally occurring offsetting positions and then hedges residual balance sheet exposures. The notional amount of foreign currency contracts outstanding was $242.1 million and $253.1 million as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The fair value of the forward and option contracts was a loss of $0.4 million at the end of the second quarter of 2024.
Interest Rate: The company has entered into interest rate swaps to fix the interest rate applicable to certain of its variable-rate debt. The agreements swapped one-month LIBOR for fixed rates. In February 2022, the company entered into an additional floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement that uses a daily SOFR in lieu of LIBOR. In April 2023, all outstanding LIBOR swap agreements were amended to one month term SOFR. The company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and all changes in fair value of the swaps are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. As of June 29, 2024, the fair value of these instruments was an asset of $42.9 million. The change in fair value of these swap agreements in the first six months of 2024 was a gain of $1.0 million, net of taxes.

Interest rate swaps are subject to default risk to the extent the counterparties are unable to satisfy their settlement obligations under the interest rate swap agreements. As a result, the company has counterparty credit exposure to large global financial institutions, which the company monitors on a regular basis.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires the company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to, allowances for doubtful accounts, reserves for excess and obsolete inventories, long-lived and intangible assets, warranty reserves, insurance reserves, income tax reserves, non-cash share-based compensation and post-retirement obligations. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed in the notes herein.
Non-Cash Share-Based Compensation Non-Cash Share-Based Compensation
The company estimates the fair value of market-based stock awards and stock options at the time of grant and recognizes compensation cost over the vesting period of the awards and options. Non-cash share-based compensation expense was $7.6 million and $9.9 million for the three months period ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Non-cash share-based compensation expense was $21.5 million and $22.1 million for the six months period ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
Fair Value Measures Fair Value Measures 
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into the following levels:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs based the company's own assumptions.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
Earnings Per Share, Policy Earnings Per Share
“Basic earnings per share” is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares actually outstanding, and “diluted earnings per share” is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and other dilutive securities.

Revenue Recognition [Abstract]  
Revenue [Policy Text Block] The company disaggregates its net sales by reportable operating segment and geographical location as the company believes it best depicts how the nature, timing and uncertainty of its net sales and cash flows are affected by economic factors. In general, the Commercial Foodservice Equipment and Residential Foodservice Equipment Groups recognize revenue at the point in time control transfers to their customers based on contractual shipping terms. Revenue from equipment sold under the company's long-term contracts within the Food Processing Equipment group is recognized over time as the equipment is manufactured and assembled.
