NOTE 3 - INVENTORIES

LIFO inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and all other inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Replacement cost approximates current cost and the excess over LIFO cost is approximately $97.2 million and $95.1 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Allowances for excess and obsolete inventory totaled $7.4 million and $7.9 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimate of expected year-end inventory levels and costs, and are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

Pre-tax LIFO expense was $1.1 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $2.1 million and $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

NOTE 6 - PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

The Company sponsors a defined benefit pension plan (“GR Plan”) covering certain domestic employees. Benefits are based on each covered employee’s years of service and compensation. The GR Plan is funded in conformity with the funding requirements of applicable U.S. regulations. The GR Plan was closed to new participants effective January 1, 2008. Employees hired after this date, in eligible locations, participate in an enhanced 401(k) plan instead of the defined benefit pension plan. Employees hired prior to this date continue to accrue benefits.

Upon the Company’s acquisition of the assets of Fill-Rite and Sotera (“Fill-Rite”), a division of Tuthill Corporation, as of June 1, 2022, the Company established a defined benefit pension plan for certain Fill-Rite employees (“Fill-Rite Plan”). The Fill-Rite Plan was frozen on January 31, 2024 and terminated on April 30, 2024. The assets of the Fill-Rite Plan will be distributed to employees during the second half of the year. Participants in the Fill-Rite Plan now participate in the Company’s enhanced 401(k) plan.

Additionally, the Company sponsors defined contribution pension plans made available to all domestic and Canadian employees. The Company funds the cost of these benefits as incurred.

The Company also sponsors a non-contributory defined benefit postretirement health care plan that provides health benefits to certain domestic and Canadian retirees and eligible spouses and dependent children. The Company funds the cost of these benefits as incurred.

The following tables present the components of net periodic benefit costs:

	Pension Benefits						Postretirement Benefits

Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Agreement

On May 31, 2024, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement”) with several lenders, which amended, extended, and restated the Company’s existing Senior Secured Credit Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2022. The Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement provides for a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $370 million (the “Senior Term Loan Facility”), a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million (the “Credit Facility”), a letter of credit sub-facility in the aggregate available amount of up to $30 million, as a sublimit of the Credit Facility, and a swing line sub-facility in the aggregate available amount of up to $20 million, as a sublimit of the Credit Facility. The obligations of the Company under the Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of its personal property, and guaranteed by certain of the Company’s direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”), which guarantees are secured by a first priority lien in substantially all of the Guarantors’ personal property.

The Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement has a maturity date of May 31, 2029, with the Senior Term Loan Facility requiring quarterly installment payments commencing on September 30, 2024 and continuing on the last day of each consecutive December, March, June and September thereafter.

At the option of the Company, borrowings under the Senior Term Loan Facility and under the Credit Facility bear interest at either a base rate or at an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the Amended and Restated Senor Credit Agreement), plus the applicable margin, which ranges from 0.5% to 1.25% for base rate loans and 1.50% to 2.25% for Adjusted Term SOFR Rate loans. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s total leverage ratio. At June 30, 2024, the applicable interest rate under the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Agreement was Adjusted Term SOFR plus 2.25%.

The Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a consolidated total net leverage ratio not to exceed 4.50 to 1.00 for each of the four consecutive fiscal quarter periods ending June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2024, decreasing to 4.25 to 1.00 for each of the four consecutive quarters ending December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025, decreasing to 4.00 to 1.00 for each of the four consecutive fiscal quarter periods ending June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025, and decreasing to 3.50 to 1.00 for the four consecutive fiscal quarter period ending December 31, 2025 and each of the four consecutive fiscal quarter periods ending thereafter.

The Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain an interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.00 to 1.00 for any four consecutive fiscal quarter period.

The Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including among others, limitations on the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to the incurrence of liens and indebtedness, dispositions of assets, mergers, transaction with affiliates, and the ability to make or pay dividends in excess of certain thresholds.

The Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement also contains customary provisions requiring the following mandatory prepayments, including, among others, prepayments of the net cash proceeds from any non-ordinary course sale of assets, and net cash proceeds of any non-permitted indebtedness.

6.40% Note Agreement

On May 31, 2024, the Company entered into a Note Agreement (the “6.40% Note Agreement”) whereby the Company issued $30.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.40% senior secured notes (the “6.40% Notes”). The Company’s obligations under the 6.40% Notes are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of its personal property, and guaranteed by each of the Guarantors, which guarantees are secured by a first priority lien in substantially all of the Guarantors’ personal property. The liens granted under the 6.40% Notes are equal in priority to those granted pursuant to the Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement.

The 6.40% Note Agreement has a maturity date of May 31, 2031 and interest is payable semiannually on the last day of May and November in each year, commencing with November 30, 2024.

The 6.40% Note Agreement includes representations, warranties, covenants and events of default, substantially consistent with those contained in the Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement.

Subordinated Credit Agreement

On May 31, 2024, using the proceeds from the upsized Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Agreement and the issuance of the 6.40% Notes, as well as approximately $10.0 million of cash on hand, the Company repaid in full all outstanding indebtedness and terminated all commitments and obligations under its unsecured subordinated credit agreement (the “Subordinated Credit Agreement”), dated as of May 31, 2022.

The Company’s payment to the lenders under the Subordinated Credit Agreement was approximately $91.8 million, which included a make-whole payment of approximately $1.8 million. This amount satisfies all of the Company’s obligations under the Subordinated Credit Agreement, which would have matured on December 1, 2027.

Other

In the second quarter of 2024, the Company expensed $1.3 million of transaction related fees and recorded a non-cash charge of $4.4 million to write-off unamortized previously deferred transaction fees related to both the Subordinated Credit Agreement and a portion of the existing Senior Term Loan Facility.

The Company incurred total issuance costs of approximately $0.7 million related to the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Agreement and the 6.40% Note Agreement. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over the respective terms.

The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2024.

Interest Rate Derivatives

The Company entered into interest rate swaps that hedge interest payments on its SOFR borrowing during the fourth quarter of 2022. All swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges. The following table summarizes the notional amounts, related rates and remaining terms of interest swap agreements as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Extending to May 2027

The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was a receivable of $1.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and a payable of $1.4 million as of December 31, 2023. The fair value was based on inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that are observable either directly or indirectly and therefore considered level 2. The mark-to-market effect of interest rate swap agreements that are considered effective as hedges has been included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. The interest rate swap agreements held by the Company on June 30, 2024 are expected to continue to be effective hedges.

(Dollars in thousands, except for per share amounts)

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, and notes thereto, and the other financial data included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Executive Overview

The Gorman-Rupp Company (“we”, “our”, “Gorman-Rupp” or the “Company”) is a leading designer, manufacturer and international marketer of pumps and pump systems for use in diverse water, wastewater, construction, dewatering, industrial, petroleum, original equipment, agriculture, fire suppression, heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), military and other liquid-handling applications. The Company attributes its success to long-term product quality, applications and performance combined with timely delivery and service, and continually seeks to develop initiatives to improve performance in these key areas.

We regularly invest in training for our employees, in new product development and in modern manufacturing equipment, technology and facilities all designed to increase production efficiency and capacity and drive growth by delivering innovative solutions to our customers. We believe that the diversity of our markets is a major contributor to the generally stable financial growth we have produced historically.

The Company’s backlog of orders was $224.4 million at June 30, 2024 compared to $249.8 million at June 30, 2023 and $218.1 million at December 31, 2023. Incoming orders for the first six months of 2024 were $341.4 million, or an increase of 6.3% compared to the same period in 2023.

The Company currently expects to continue its exceptional history of paying regular quarterly dividends and increased annual dividends. However, any future dividends will be reviewed individually and declared by our Board of Directors at its discretion, dependent on our assessment of the Company’s financial condition and business outlook at the applicable time.

Outlook

We are focused on top line growth through backlog reduction in the second half of the year, as well as delivering strong gross margin and earnings. We are also pleased that our previously announced refinancing is expected to result in significant interest savings going forward.

Net Sales

The following table presents the Company’s disaggregated net sales by its end markets for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023		$ Change			% Change

Repair parts		19,355		18,722		633			3.4	%
Total net sales	$	169,513	$	171,024	$	(1,511	)		(0.9	)%

Net sales for the second quarter of 2024 were $169.5 million compared to net sales of $171.0 million for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of 0.9% or $1.5 million. The decrease in sales was due to a decrease in volume partially offset by the impact of pricing increases taken in the first quarter of 2024.

Sales increased $6.7 million in the municipal market due to domestic flood control and wastewater projects related to increased infrastructure investment, $2.2 million in the OEM market, $0.6 million in the repair market, and $0.3 million in the petroleum market. These increases were offset by a sales decrease of $8.0 million in the fire suppression market primarily resulting from backlog returning to more normal levels. Fire suppression sales in the second quarter of 2023 were up significantly compared to the same period in 2022 as the Company was working to return backlog and lead times to normal levels, which resulted in higher second quarter 2023 sales and a tougher year-over-year comparison for the second quarter of 2024. Fire suppression incoming orders for the second quarter of 2024 were up 11.2% when compared to the second quarter of 2023. Sales for the second quarter of 2024 also decreased $1.6 million in the agriculture market primarily driven by significant declines in farm income, $1.2 million in the industrial market, and $0.5 million in the construction market.

Gross Margin		31.9	%		30.2	%

Gross profit was $54.1 million for the second quarter of 2024, resulting in gross margin of 31.9%, compared to gross profit of $51.7 million and gross margin of 30.2% for the same period in 2023. The 170 basis point increase in gross margin included a 280 basis point improvement in cost of material, which consisted of a reduction in LIFO expense of 70 basis points, and a 210 basis point improvement from the realization of selling price increases. These improvements were partially offset by a 110 basis point increase in labor and overhead expenses as a percent of sales.

Interest Expense	$	9,048		$	10,485		$	(1,437	)		(13.7	)%

Interest expense was $9.0 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $10.5 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease in interest expense was due to a series of previously announced refinancing transactions the Company completed on May 31, 2024. The refinancing is expected to reduce interest expense, and also extended and staggered the Company’s debt maturities. The Company upsized, amended, and extended the existing Senior Term Loan Facility from $350.0 million to $370.0 million, amended and extended the existing $100.0 million revolving Credit Facility, and issued $30.0 million in new 6.40% Senior Secured Notes. The proceeds from these transactions, as well as $10.0 million of cash on hand, were used to retire the Company’s $90.0 million unsecured Subordinated Credit Facility.

Total net sales	$	328,781	$	331,490	$	(2,709	)		(0.8	)%

Net sales for the first six months of 2024 were $328.8 million compared to net sales of $331.5 million for the first six months of 2023, a decrease of 0.8% or $2.7 million. The decrease in sales was due to a decrease in volume partially offset by the impact of pricing increases taken in the first quarter of 2024.

Sales increased $9.4 million in the municipal market due to domestic flood control and wastewater projects related to increased infrastructure investment, $1.4 million in the OEM market, $0.7 million in the petroleum market, $0.7 million in the repair market, and $0.1 million in the construction market. Offsetting these increases was a decrease of $11.8 million in the fire suppression market primarily resulting from backlog returning to more normal levels. Fire suppression sales for the first six months of 2023 were up significantly compared to the same period in 2022 as the Company was working to return backlog and lead times to normal levels, which resulted in higher sales for the first six months of 2023 and a tougher year-over-year comparison for the first six months of 2024. Fire suppression incoming orders for the first six months of 2024 were up 6.4% when compared to the first six months of 2023. Sales for the first six months of 2024 also decreased $2.3 million in the agriculture market primarily driven by significant declines in farm income, and $0.9 million in the industrial market.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 21.9% for the first six months of 2024 compared to 21.8% for the first six months of 2023.

Net income was $16.2 million, or $0.62 per share, for the first six months of 2024 compared to net income of $17.0 million, or $0.65 per share, for the first six months of 2023. Adjusted earnings per share for the first six months of 2024 were $0.84 per share compared to $0.68 per share for the first six months of 2023. Adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure; see “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below for a definition of the measure and the reconciliation to its comparable GAAP financial measure.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

The discussion of Results of Operations above includes certain non-GAAP financial data and measures such as adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”). Adjusted earnings is earnings excluding amortization of customer backlog, write-off of unamortized previously deferred debt financing fees, and refinancing costs. Adjusted earnings per share is earnings per share excluding amortization of customer backlog per share, write-off of unamortized previously deferred debt financing fees per share, and refinancing costs per share. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization is net income (loss) excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude amortization of customer backlog, write-off of unamortized previously deferred debt financing fees, refinancing costs, and non-cash LIFO expense. Management utilizes these adjusted financial data and measures to assess comparative operations against those of prior periods without the distortion of non-comparable factors. The inclusion of these adjusted measures should not be construed as an indication that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items or that the items for which the Company has made adjustments are unusual or infrequent or will not recur. Further, the impact of the LIFO inventory costing method can cause results to vary substantially from company to company depending upon whether they elect to utilize LIFO and depending upon which method they may elect. The Gorman-Rupp Company believes that these non-GAAP financial data and measures also will be useful to investors in assessing the strength of the Company’s underlying operations and liquidity from period to period. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace GAAP financial measures, and they are not necessarily standardized or comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Provided below is a reconciliation of adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA to their respective corresponding GAAP financial measures, which includes descriptions of actual adjustments made in the current period and the corresponding prior period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations and borrowings under our Credit Facility. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $34.2 million at June 30, 2024. The Company had an additional $98.5 million of borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility with no amounts borrowed and $1.5 million in outstanding letters of credit primarily related to customer orders. We believe we have adequate liquidity from funds on hand and borrowing capacity to execute our financial and operating strategy, as well as comply with debt obligation and financial covenants for at least the next 12 months.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $400.0 million in total debt outstanding with $30.0 million due in 2031 and the remainder due in 2029. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants, including limits on additional borrowings and maintenance of certain operating and financial ratios, at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. See “Note 9 – Financing Arrangements” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for a further description of our outstanding debt.

Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2024 were $7.1 million and consisted primarily of machinery and equipment and building improvements. Capital expenditures for the full-year 2024 are presently planned to be approximately $20 million primarily for building improvements and machinery and equipment purchases, and are expected to be financed through internally-generated funds.

On July 25, 2024, the Board of Directors authorized the payment of a quarterly dividend of $0.18 per share on the common stock of the Company, payable September 10, 2024, to shareholders of record as of August 15, 2024. This will mark the 298th consecutive quarterly dividend paid by The Gorman-Rupp Company. The Company currently expects to continue its exceptional history of paying regular quarterly dividends and increased annual dividends. However, any future dividends will be reviewed individually and declared by our Board of Directors at its discretion, dependent on our assessment of the Company’s financial condition and business outlook at the applicable time.

The Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $50.0 million of the Company’s common shares. The actual number of shares repurchased will depend on prevailing market conditions, alternative uses of capital and other factors, and will be determined at management’s discretion. The Company is not obligated to make any purchases under the program, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $48.1 million available for repurchase under the share repurchase program.

Financial Cash Flow

	2024			2023
Beginning of period cash and cash equivalents	$	30,518		$	6,783
Net cash provided by operating activities		33,397			37,856

Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	3,727		$	5,390
End of period cash and cash equivalents	$	34,245		$	12,173

The increase in cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2024 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to increased earnings before depreciation, amortization, and LIFO expense, and improved cash flow from better working capital management.

During the first six months of 2024, investing activities of $5.0 million consisted of $7.1 million for capital expenditures primarily for machinery and equipment partially offset by $2.1 million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment. During the first six months of 2023, investing activities of $12.9 million consisted of $13.3 million for capital expenditures primarily for machinery and equipment.

Net cash used for financing activities of $24.2 million for the first six months of 2024 primarily consisted of net payments on bank borrowings of $13.8 million and dividend payments of $9.4 million. Net cash used for financing activities for the first six months of 2023 primarily consisted of net payments on bank borrowings of $8.8 million, dividend payments of $9.1 million, and share repurchases of $1.0 million.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are described in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Any new accounting policies or updates to existing accounting policies as a result of new accounting pronouncements have been discussed in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The application of our critical accounting policies may require management to make judgments and estimates about the amounts reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates and judgments, and different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and estimates.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

In connection with the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, The Gorman-Rupp Company provides the following cautionary statement: This Form 10-Q contains various forward-looking statements based on assumptions concerning The Gorman-Rupp Company’s operations, future results and prospects. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations about important economic, political, and technological factors, among others, and are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause the actual results or events to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by the forward-looking statements and related assumptions.

Such uncertainties include, but are not limited to, our estimates of future earnings and cash flows, general economic conditions and supply chain conditions and any related impact on costs and availability of materials, integration of the Fill-Rite business in a timely and cost effective manner, retention of supplier and customer relationships and key employees, the ability to achieve synergies and cost savings in the amounts and within the time frames currently anticipated and the ability to service and repay indebtedness incurred in connection with the transaction. Other factors include, but are not limited to: company specific risk factors including (1) loss of key personnel; (2) intellectual property security; (3) acquisition performance and integration; (4) the Company’s indebtedness and how it may impact the Company’s financial condition and the way it operates its business; (5) general risks associated with acquisitions; (6) the anticipated benefits from the Fill-Rite transaction may not be realized; (7) impairment in the value of intangible assets, including goodwill; (8) defined benefit pension plan settlement expense; (9) LIFO inventory method, and (10) family ownership of common equity; and general risk factors including (11) continuation of the current and projected future business environment; (12) highly competitive markets; (13) availability and costs of raw materials and labor; (14) cybersecurity threats; (15) compliance with, and costs related to, a variety of import and export laws and regulations; (16) environmental compliance costs and liabilities; (17) exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; (18) conditions in foreign countries in which The Gorman-Rupp Company conducts business; (19) changes in our tax rates and exposure to additional income tax liabilities; and (20) risks described from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Except to the extent required by law, we do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to review or update any forward-looking statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of such statements to reflect future events or developments or otherwise.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Exposure to foreign exchange rate risk is due to certain costs and revenue being denominated in currencies other than one of the Company’s subsidiaries functional currency. The Company is also exposed to market risk as the result of changes in interest rates which may affect the cost of financing. We continually monitor these risks and regularly develop appropriate strategies to manage them. Accordingly, from time to time, we may enter into certain derivative or other financial instruments. These financial instruments are used to mitigate market exposure and are not used for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

The results of operations are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily with respect to borrowings under the Company’s Senior Term Loan Facility and Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Senior Term Loan Facility and Credit Facility may be made either at (i) a base rate plus the applicable margin, which ranges from 0.50% to 1.25%, or at (ii) an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, plus the applicable margin, which ranges from 1.5% to 2.25%. At June 30, 2024, the Company had $370.0 million in borrowings under the Senior Term Loan Facility and no borrowings under the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2024, the applicable interest rates under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement were Adjusted Term SOFR plus 2.25%.

To reduce the exposure to changes in the market rate of interest, effective October 31, 2022, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements for a portion of the Senior Term Loan Facility. Terms of the interest rate swap agreements require the Company to receive a fixed interest rate and pay a variable interest rate. The interest rate swap agreements are designated as a cash flow hedge, and as a result, the mark-to-market gains or losses will be deferred and included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to interest expense in the period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.

The Company estimates that a hypothetical increase of 100 basis points in interest rates would increase interest expense by approximately $2.1 million on an annual basis.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company’s foreign currency exchange rate risk is limited primarily to the Euro, Canadian Dollar, South African Rand and British Pound. The Company manages its foreign exchange risk principally through invoicing customers in the same currency as is used in the market of the source of products. The foreign currency transaction gains (losses) for the six month periods ending June 30, 2024 and 2023 were ($0.1) million and ($0.4) million, respectively, and are reported within Other (expense) income, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2024.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no material changes from the legal proceedings previously reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

In addition to the information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for the following which supplements the Company’s previously disclosed risk factors:

The Company has substantial indebtedness, which may impact the Company’s financial condition and the way it operates its business

The Company has substantial indebtedness. Such indebtedness includes senior secured first lien credit facilities comprised of a $370 million term loan facility and a $100 million revolving credit facility, and a $30 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.40% senior secured notes. The indebtedness could have important negative consequences, including:

●

higher borrowing costs resulting from fluctuations in our variable benchmark borrowing rates that have adversely affected, and could in the future adversely affect, our interest rates;

●

reduced availability of cash for the Company’s operations and other business activities after satisfying interest payments and other requirements under the terms of its debt instruments;

●

less flexibility to plan for or react to competitive challenges, and a competitive disadvantage relative to competitors that do not have as much indebtedness;

●

limiting the Company’s ability to undertake mergers or dispositions of assets, or pay dividends;

●

difficulty in obtaining additional financing in the future;

●

inability to comply with covenants in, and potential for default under, the Company’s debt instruments;

●

inability to operate our business or to take advantage of business opportunities due to restrictions created from the debt covenants; and

●

challenges to repaying or refinancing any of the Company’s debt.

The Company’s ability to satisfy its debt and other obligations will depend principally upon its future operating performance. As a result, prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, legal and regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, may affect its ability to make payments on its debt and other obligations.
