Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in millions, except per share data)

 

1. Basis of Presentation

 

The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by RBC Bearings Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The interim financial statements included with this report have been prepared on a consistent basis with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 (our “Annual Report”). We condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual audited financial statements, which we prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). As used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “RBC” and the “Company” mean RBC Bearings Incorporated and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates another meaning.

 

These financial statements reflect all adjustments, accruals, and estimates, consisting only of items of a normal recurring nature, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report.

 

The results of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended September 28, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the entire fiscal year ending March 29, 2025. The three-month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023 each included 13 weeks. The six-month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023 each included 26 weeks. All dollar amounts contained in these financial statements and footnotes are stated in millions, except for per share data.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

The Company’s significant accounting policies are detailed in “Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report.

 

Significant changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting new accounting standards are discussed below.

 

Recent Accounting Standards Adopted

 

Not Applicable.

 

Recent Accounting Standards Yet to Be Adopted

 

In November 2023, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 improve the disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and address requests from investors for additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. As of September 28, 2024, the Company is evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. As of September 28, 2024, the Company is evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Remaining Performance Obligations

 

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of orders meeting the definition of a contract for which work has not been performed or has been partially performed and excludes unexercised contract options. The duration of the majority of our contracts, as defined by ASC Topic 606, is less than one year. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient, which allows the Company to exclude remaining performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for such contracts with a duration of more than one year was approximately $487.3 at September 28, 2024. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 64% and 90% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 and 24 months, respectively, with the remainder recognized thereafter.

Contract Balances

 

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections affects accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. These assets and liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets on an individual contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

 

Contract Assets (Unbilled Receivables) - Pursuant to the over-time revenue recognition model, revenue may be recognized prior to the customer being invoiced. An unbilled receivable is recorded to reflect revenue that is recognized when (1) the cost-to-cost method is applied and (2) such revenue exceeds the amount invoiced to the customer.

 

As of September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, current contract assets were $8.2 and $6.9, respectively, and included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in contract assets was primarily due to the recognition of revenue related to the satisfaction or partial satisfaction of performance obligations prior to billing, partially offset by amounts billed to customers during the period. As of September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, the Company did not have any contract assets classified as noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Contract Liabilities (Deferred Revenue) - The Company may receive a customer advance or deposit, or have an unconditional right to receive a customer advance, prior to revenue being recognized. Since the performance obligations related to such advances may not have been satisfied, a contract liability is established. Advance payments are not considered a significant financing component as the timing of the transfer of the related goods or services is at the discretion of the customer.

 

As of September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, current contract liabilities were $25.1 and $22.5, respectively, and are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in current contract liabilities was primarily due to advance payments received and the reclassification of a portion of advance payments received from the noncurrent portion of contract liabilities partially offset by revenue recognized on customer contracts. For the three and six months ended September 28, 2024, the Company recognized revenues of $5.9 and $11.6 that were included in the current contract liability balance as of March 30, 2024. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized revenues of $4.7 and $9.3 that were included in the current contract liability balance at April 1, 2023.

 

As of September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, noncurrent contract liabilities were $13.1 and $19.9, respectively, and included within other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The decrease in noncurrent contract liabilities was primarily due to the reclassification of a portion of advance payments received to the current portion of contract liabilities.

 

Variable Consideration

 

The amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for goods and services is not generally subject to significant variations. However, the Company does offer certain customers rebates, prompt payment discounts, end-user discounts and the right to return eligible products. The Company estimates this variable consideration using the expected value amount, which is based on historical experience. The Company includes estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The Company adjusts the estimate of revenue at the earlier of when the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. Accrued customer rebates were $36.7 and $38.0 at September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, respectively, and are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

5. Net Income Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

 

Basic net income per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.

 

Diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding using the treasury stock method. Common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and the conversion of our 5.00% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (the “MCPS”) to common shares.

 

We exclude outstanding stock options, stock awards and the MCPS from the calculations if the effect would be anti-dilutive. The dilutive effect of the MCPS is calculated using the if-converted method. The if-converted method assumes that these securities were converted to shares of common stock at the beginning of the reporting period to the extent that the effect is dilutive. If the effect is anti-dilutive, we calculate net income per share attributable to common stockholders by adjusting the numerator for the effect of the cumulative MCPS dividends for the respective period.

 

During the three-month period ended September 28, 2024, certain holders of the MCPS elected to exercise their right to convert their MCPS shares into common shares prior to the mandatory conversion date of October 15, 2024. This resulted in 1,500 MCPS shares being converted to 661 common shares during the period.

 

As of September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, there were 4,598,500 and 4,600,000 MCPS shares outstanding, respectively. For the three-month and six-month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, the effect of assuming the conversion of these MCPS shares into shares of common stock was anti-dilutive, and therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. Accordingly, net income was reduced by cumulative MCPS dividends, as presented in our consolidated statement of operations, for purposes of calculating the numerator in the diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders.

 

For the three months ended September 28, 2024, 50,205 employee stock options and no restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. For the six months ended September 28, 2024, 60,907 employee stock options and 3,250 restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. The inclusion of these employee stock options and restricted shares would have been anti-dilutive.

 

10

 

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, 139,198 employee stock options and no restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. For the six months ended September 30, 2023, 140,672 employee stock options and 105 restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. The inclusion of these employee stock options and restricted shares would have been anti-dilutive.

 

The table below reflects the calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding for each period presented as well as the computation of basic and diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders.

6. Fair Value

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be expected to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy: 

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

As a result of the occurrence of triggering events such as purchase accounting for acquisitions, the Company measures certain assets and liabilities based on Level 3 inputs.

Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses, short-term borrowings, long-term debt, and derivatives in the form of an interest rate swap and a cross currency swap. Refer to Note 13 for further details on our derivative instruments.

 

Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term borrowings are a reasonable estimate of their fair value. Long-term assets held on our balance sheets related to benefit plan obligations are measured at fair value.

 

The fair value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate debt, based on quoted market prices, was $480.7 and $456.8 at September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, respectively. The carrying value of this debt was $494.6 at September 28, 2024 and $494.2 at March 30, 2024. The fair value of long-term fixed-rate debt was measured using Level 1 inputs. Due to the nature of fair value calculations for variable-rate debt, the carrying value of the Company’s long-term variable-rate debt is a reasonable estimate of its fair value.

 

The fair value of the interest rate swap was $(0.8) at September 28, 2024 and included in other noncurrent liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the interest rate swap was $1.6 at March 30, 2024, and included in other noncurrent assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the interest rate swap is measured using Level 2 inputs.

 

The fair value of the cross currency swap was $(2.8) at September 28, 2024, and included in other noncurrent liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the cross currency swap was measured using Level 2 inputs.

 

The Company does not believe it has significant concentrations of risk associated with the counterparties to its financial instruments.

10. Debt

 

Domestic Credit Facility

 

In fiscal 2022, RBC Bearings Incorporated, our top holding company, and our Roller Bearing Company of America, Inc. subsidiary (“RBCA”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer, and the other lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement provides the Company with (a) a $1,300.0 term loan (the “Term Loan”), which was used to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge Industrial, Inc. (“Dodge”) and to pay related fees and expenses, and (b) a $500.0 revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and together with the Term Loan, the “Facilities”). Debt issuance costs associated with the Credit Agreement totaled $14.9 and are being amortized over the life of the Credit Agreement.

 

Initially, amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bore interest, at the Company’s option, at either, (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (i) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1.00% and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (b) the LIBOR rate plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin was based on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from time to time. In December 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended to replace LIBOR with the secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“SOFR”) so that borrowings under the Facilities denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to 2.00% depending on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA. The Facilities are subject to a SOFR floor of 0.00%. As of September 28, 2024, the Company’s margin was 1.00% for SOFR loans, the commitment fee rate was 0.175%, and the letter of credit fee rate was 1.00%. A portion of the Term Loan is subject to a fixed-rate interest swap as discussed in Note 13.

 

The Term Loan matures in November 2026 and amortizes in quarterly installments with the balance payable on the maturity date. The Company can elect to prepay some or all of the outstanding balance from time to time without penalty, which will offset future quarterly amortization installments. Due to prepayments previously made, the required future principal payments on the Term Loan are $0 for fiscal 2025, $0 for fiscal 2026, and $600.0 for fiscal 2027. The Revolving Credit Facility expires in November 2026, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility will be payable.

 

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including the following financial covenants: (a) a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 5.00:1.00, which maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio shall decrease during certain subsequent test periods as set forth in the Credit Agreement (provided that, no more than once during the term of the Facilities, such maximum ratio applicable at such time may be increased by the Company by 0.50:1.00 for a period of 12 months after the consummation of a material acquisition); and (b) a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio of 2.00:1.00. As of September 28, 2024 the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

 

The Credit Agreement allows the Company to, among other things, make distributions to stockholders, repurchase its stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that the Company complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Credit Agreement.

 

The Company’s domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the Company’s obligations and the domestic subsidiaries’ guaranty are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.

 

As of September 28, 2024, $600.0 was outstanding under the Term Loan and $3.7 of the Revolving Credit Facility was being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure the Company’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs. The Company had the ability to borrow an additional $496.3 under the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 28, 2024. On September 30, 2024, the Company paid $32.0 on the Term Loan.

Senior Notes

 

In fiscal 2022, RBCA issued $500.0 aggregate principal amount of 4.375% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes were approximately $492.0, after deducting initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses, and were used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge.

 

The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Indenture”). The Indenture contains covenants limiting the ability of the Company to (i) incur additional indebtedness or guarantee indebtedness, (ii) declare or pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions to stockholders, (iii) make investments, (iv) create liens or use assets as security in other transactions, (v) merge or consolidate, or sell, transfer, lease or dispose of substantially all of its assets, (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates, and (vii) sell or transfer certain assets. These covenants contain various exceptions, limitations and qualifications. At any time that the Senior Notes are rated investment grade, certain of these covenants will be suspended.

 

The Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior unsecured basis by RBC Bearings and RBCA’s domestic subsidiaries that also guarantee the Credit Agreement.

 

Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 4.375% and is payable semi–annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.

 

The Senior Notes will mature on October 15, 2029. The Company may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at any time on or after October 15, 2024 at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company sells certain of its assets or experiences specific kinds of changes in control, the Company must offer to purchase the Senior Notes.

 

Foreign Borrowing Arrangements

 

One of our foreign subsidiaries, Schaublin SA, has a CHF 5.0 (approximately $5.9 USD) credit line (the “Foreign Credit Line”) with Credit Suisse (Switzerland) Ltd. to provide future working capital, if necessary. As of September 28, 2024, $0.1 was being utilized to provide a bank guarantee and no outstandings amounts were open. Fees associated with the Foreign Credit Line are nominal.

 

In July 2024, Swiss Tool Systems, one of our foreign subsidiaries, purchased the building where it operates for CHF 7.1 (approximately $8.4 USD) and took out a 10-year fixed-rate mortgage on the building for CHF 4.0 (approximately $4.5 USD).

11. Income Taxes

 

The Company files income tax returns in numerous U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, with returns subject to examination for varying periods, but generally back to and including the year ended March 28, 2020, although certain tax credits generated in earlier years are open under statute from March 29, 2008. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years ended before March 28, 2020.

 

The effective income tax rates for the three-month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, were 21.9% and 22.7%, respectively. In addition to discrete items, the effective income tax rates for both these periods were different from the U.S. statutory rates due to the foreign-derived intangible income provision and U.S. credit for increasing research activities, which decreased the rate, and state income taxes, foreign income taxes, and nondeductible compensation, which increased the rate.

 

The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended September 28, 2024 of 21.9% included $1.1 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation partially offset by $0.1 of other discrete tax expenses. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended September 28, 2024 would have been 23.4%. The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended September 30, 2023 of 22.7% included $0.1 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended September 30, 2023 would have been 22.8%. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that some of its unrecognized tax positions may be effectively settled within the next 12 months due to the closing of audits and the statute of limitations expiring in various jurisdictions. The decrease in the Company’s unrecognized tax positions, pertaining primarily to federal and state credits and state tax, is estimated to be approximately $1.9.

 

The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 28, 2024 was 22.6% compared to 22.3% for the six-month period ended September 30, 2023. The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 28, 2024 of 22.6% included $1.7 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation partially offset by $0.1 of other discrete tax expenses. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the six-month period ended September 28, 2024 would have been 23.6%. The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 30, 2023 of 22.3% included $0.5 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the six-month period ended September 30, 2023 would have been 22.7%.

In October 2021, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) announced an Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting including Pillar Two Model Rules defining the global minimum tax, which calls for the taxation of large multinational corporations at a minimum rate of 15%. Subsequently multiple sets of administrative guidance have been issued. Many non-US tax jurisdictions have either recently enacted legislation to adopt certain components of the Pillar Two Model Rules beginning in 2024 with the adoption of additional components in later years or announced their plans to enact legislation in future years. We are continuing to evaluate the impacts of enacted legislation and pending legislation to enact Pillar Two Model Rules in the non-US tax jurisdictions in which we operate. At this time, we do not anticipate the enacted or pending legislation to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

13. Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations, including market risks relating to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Changes in the fair values of the derivative are recorded each period in earnings or accumulated other comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is effective as part of a hedged transaction. Gains and losses on derivative instruments reported in accumulated other comprehensive income are subsequently included in earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged item. The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

 

In fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a three-year U.S. dollar-denominated interest rate swap (the “Interest Swap”) with a third-party financial counterparty under the Credit Agreement (see Note 10). The Interest Rate Swap was executed to protect the Company from interest rate volatility on our variable-rate Term Loan. The Interest Rate Swap became effective December 30, 2022 and is comprised of a $600.0 notional with a maturity of three years. The notional was $400.0 as of September 28, 2024. We receive a variable rate based on one-month Term SOFR and pay a fixed rate of 4.455%. As of September 28, 2024, approximately 82% of our debt bears interest at a fixed rate after giving effect to the interest rate swap agreement in place. The notional on the Interest Rate Swap amortizes as follows:

 

Year 1: $600.0

Year 2: $400.0

Year 3: $100.0

 

The Interest Rate Swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge of the variability of the first unhedged interest payments (the hedged transactions) paid over the hedging relationship’s specified time period of three years attributable to the borrowing’s contractually specified interest index on the hedged principal of its general borrowing program or replacement or refinancing thereof. The fair value of the Interest Rate Swap has been disclosed in Note 6. The balance in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the Interest Rate Swap has been disclosed in Note 4. The gain/loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings has been recorded as interest income/expense on the Interest Rate Swap and included in the operating section of the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

 

On August 12, 2024, the Company entered into a three-year pay Swiss franc fixed/receive U.S. dollar fixed, cross currency swap (the “Cross Currency Swap”) with a third-party financial counterparty. The objective of the Cross Currency Swap is to economically hedge the Company’s net investment in its lower-tier European subsidiary, Schaublin, against adverse changes in the Swiss franc/U.S. dollar exchange rate. The Cross Currency Swap is based upon a net investment of CHF 69.4 ($80.0 USD) notional amount with a three-year maturity date. RBC receives a fixed U.S. dollar amount on a month-to-month basis based upon a fixed annual rate of 2.77% of the notional amount. At maturity, RBC will net-settle the principal of the Cross Currency Swap in cash with the counterparty.

 

The Cross Currency Swap has been designated as a net investment hedge on an after-tax basis. The fair value of the Cross Currency Swap has been disclosed in Note 6. The balance in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the Cross Currency Swap has been disclosed in Note 4.

 

14. Subsequent Events

 

On October 15, 2024, each then-outstanding share of the MCPS converted into 0.4413 shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion rate was based on a value for the common stock equal to the lower of (i) the average of the daily VWAPs in the 20-trading-day period through October 14, 2024 (the daily VWAP is the per share volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for a given trading day as reported by Bloomberg) or (ii) $226.63. Because the VWAP average for the 20 trading days through October 14 was $292.55, the $226.63 common stock value was utilized to produce the conversion rate of 0.4413 shares of common stock for each share of MCPS. This is known as the “Minimum Conversion Rate” in the Certificate of Designations defining the terms of the MCPS.

 

The dividend on the MCPS that accrued through the conversion date was paid on the conversion date to holders of record on October 1, 2024 and therefore was not factored into the conversion rate.

 

The Company issued 2,029,955 shares of common stock upon the conversion of the MCPS.

 

Because the MCPS is no longer outstanding, the Company will not pay dividends on the MCPS in the future. This will amount to a cash savings of $23.0 per year.

Overview

 

We are a leading international manufacturer of highly engineered precision bearings, components and essential systems for the industrial, aerospace and defense industries. Our precision solutions are integral to the manufacture and operation of most machines and mechanical systems, reduce wear to moving parts, facilitate proper power transmission, and reduce damage and energy loss caused by friction. While we manufacture products in all major bearings categories, we focus primarily on the higher end of the bearing and engineered component markets where we believe our value-added manufacturing and engineering capabilities enable us to differentiate ourselves from our competitors and enhance profitability. We believe our expertise has enabled us to garner leading positions in many of the product markets in which we primarily compete. With 52 facilities in 11 countries, of which 37 are manufacturing facilities, we have been able to significantly broaden our end markets, products, customer base and geographic reach.

 

Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) makes operating decisions, assesses the performance of the business, and allocates resources under two reportable business segments – Aerospace/Defense and Industrial:

 

●Aerospace/Defense. This segment represents the end markets for the Company’s highly engineered bearings and precision components used in commercial aerospace, defense aerospace, and marine and ground defense applications.

 

●Industrial. This segment represents the end markets for the Company’s highly engineered bearings, gearings and precision components used in various industrial applications including: power transmission; construction, mining, energy and specialized equipment manufacturing; semiconductor production equipment manufacturing; agricultural machinery, commercial truck and automotive manufacturing; and tool holding.

 

The markets for our products are cyclical, and we have endeavored to mitigate this cyclicality by entering into single and sole-source relationships and long-term purchase agreements, through diversification across multiple market segments within the Aerospace/Defense and Industrial segments, by increasing sales to the aftermarket, and by focusing on developing highly customized solutions.

 

Currently, our strategy is built around maintaining our role as a leading manufacturer of highly engineered bearings and precision components through the following efforts:

 

●Developing innovative solutions. By leveraging our design and manufacturing expertise and our extensive customer relationships, we continue to develop new products for markets in which there are substantial growth opportunities.

 

●Expanding customer base and penetrating end markets. We continually seek opportunities to access new customers, geographic locations and bearing platforms with existing products or profitable new product opportunities.

 

●Increasing aftermarket sales. We believe that increasing our aftermarket sales of replacement parts will further enhance the continuity and predictability of our revenues and enhance our profitability. Such sales include sales to third party distributors and sales to OEMs for replacement products and aftermarket services. The acquisition of Dodge has had a profound impact on our sales volumes to distributors and other aftermarket customers. We will further increase the percentage of our revenues derived from the replacement market by continuing to implement several initiatives.

 

●Pursuing selective acquisitions. The acquisition of businesses that complement or expand our operations has been and continues to be an important element of our business strategy. We believe that there will continue to be consolidation within the industry that may present us with acquisition opportunities.

 

Outlook

 

Our net sales for the three-month period ended September 28, 2024 increased 3.2% compared to the same period last fiscal year. The increase in net sales was a result of a 12.5% increase in our Aerospace/Defense segment partially offset by a 1.4% decrease in our Industrial segment. Our backlog, as of September 28, 2024 was $864.0 compared to $821.5 as of March 30, 2024.

 

We are continuing to see the expansion of our commercial aerospace business, which experienced a 10.3% increase in net sales for the three-month period ended September 28, 2024 versus the same period last fiscal year. We anticipate this growth to continue through the rest of the current fiscal year and beyond. Orders have continued to grow as evidenced by our backlog. Defense sales, which represented approximately 33.3% of segment sales during the quarter, were up 17.3% quarter over quarter. We expect this growth to continue throughout the current fiscal year and beyond as we are gearing up to fulfill the substantial number of defense orders in our backlog. Though sales in our Industrial segment have decreased compared to the comparable period in the prior year, our margins have continued to improve driven by continuous operational improvements and product mix.

 

20

 

 

The Company expects net sales to be approximately $390.0 to $400.0 in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of 4.3% to 7.0% compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

 

We believe that operating cash flows and available credit under the Revolving Credit Facility will provide adequate resources to fund internal growth initiatives for the foreseeable future, including at least the next 12 months. As of September 28, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $89.1, of which approximately $22.8 was cash held by our foreign subsidiaries.

Our net sales for the three-month period ended September 28, 2024 increased 3.2% compared to the same period last fiscal year. Net sales in our Industrial segment decreased 1.4% quarter over quarter. While stable overall, we saw strength in the mining and metals and warehousing markets offset by weakness in semicon and oil and gas sales compared to the prior year. Net sales in our Aerospace/Defense segment increased 12.5% quarter over quarter, led by defense sales, which increased 17.3% compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by aerospace and marine. Aerospace commercial OEM and the aftermarket were up 10.3% compared to the same period in the prior year. Net sales during the quarter ended September 28, 2024 were adversely effected by a temporary stoppage of shipping and receiving activities at certain of our facilities due to local flooding caused by Hurricane Helene, as well as a shipping slowdown to one of our commercial aerospace OEM customers that is experiencing a labor strike. We estimate the impact to net sales from these events to have been between $4.0 and $5.0 during the quarter.

 

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $48.5 compared to $45.9 for the same period last fiscal year.

Interest expense, net, was $15.6 for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to $20.1 for the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in interest expense between the periods was related to the debt reduction efforts made by the Company over the past fiscal year, the Interest Rate Swap (which has enabled us to manage interest costs as approximately 82% of our debt bears interest at a fixed rate, after giving effect to the Interest Rate Swap), and the Cross Currency Swap. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for more information regarding the Interest Rate Swap and the Cross Currency Swap.

Net sales increased $15.9, or 12.5%, for the three months ended September 28, 2024 compared to the same period last fiscal year. Our commercial aerospace markets, which consisted of $75.4 of OEM and $20.1 of distribution and aftermarket, increased by 10.3% compared to fiscal 2024 when OEM net sales were $67.5 and distribution and aftermarket net sales were $19.2. This was driven by strong execution on the incremental orders we have seen in recent periods in the OEM markets and expansion in the aftermarket. Our defense markets, which consisted of $35.5 of OEM and $12.2 of distribution and aftermarket, increased by 17.3% compared to fiscal 2024 when OEM net sales were $34.9 and distribution and aftermarket net sales were $5.7. The increase in defense sales was driven by marine, helicopters and missiles.

Net sales increased $44.5, or 18.0%, for the first six months of fiscal 2025 compared to the same period last fiscal year. The 18.0% increase was primarily driven by a 27.3% increase in our defense market, while our commercial aerospace market was up 13.7% year over year. Commercial aerospace, which consisted of $153.9 of OEM and $38.9 of distribution and aftermarket, increased by 13.7% compared to fiscal 2024 when OEM net sales were $133.1 and distribution and aftermarket net sales were $36.5. Our defense markets, which consisted of $75.7 of OEM and $23.8 of distribution and aftermarket, increased by 27.3% compared to fiscal 2024 when OEM net sales were $65.2 and distribution and aftermarket net sales were $13.0.

 

Gross margin as a percentage of segment net sales was 41.0% for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to 39.5% for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in gross margin as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by efficiencies achieved at the plants in part due to increased sales volumes and favorable product mix.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our capital requirements include manufacturing equipment and materials. We have historically fueled our growth, in part, through acquisitions, including the Dodge acquisition completed in fiscal 2022 and the Specline acquisition completed in fiscal 2024. We have historically met our working capital, capital expenditure and acquisition funding needs through our net cash flows provided by operations, various debt arrangements and public sales of equity. We believe that operating cash flows and available credit under the Revolving Credit Facility (which expires in November 2026) will provide adequate resources to fund internal growth initiatives for the foreseeable future.

 

Our ability to meet future working capital, capital expenditure and debt service requirements will depend on our future financial performance, which will be affected by a range of economic, competitive and business factors, particularly interest rates, cyclical changes in our end markets, and our ability to pass through raw material price increases on a timely basis, many of which are outside of our control. In addition, future acquisitions could have a significant impact on our liquidity position and our need for additional funds.

 

From time to time, we evaluate our existing facilities and operations and their strategic importance to us. If we determine that a given facility or operation does not have future strategic importance, we may sell, relocate, consolidate or otherwise dispose of that facility or operations. Although we believe our operations would not be materially adversely affected by such dispositions, relocations or consolidations, we could incur significant cash or non-cash charges in connection with them.

 

Liquidity

 

As of September 28, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $89.1, of which approximately $22.8 was cash held by our foreign subsidiaries. We expect that our undistributed foreign earnings will be re-invested indefinitely for working capital, internal growth, and acquisitions for and by certain of our foreign subsidiaries.

 

Domestic Credit Facility

 

The Credit Agreement, which was entered into in fiscal 2022, provides the Company with (a) the $1,300.0 Term Loan, which was used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge and to pay related fees and expenses, and (b) the $500.0 Revolving Credit Facility. Debt issuance costs associated with the Credit Agreement totaled $14.9 and are being amortized over the life of the Credit Agreement.

 

Initially, amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bore interest, at the Company’s option, at either, (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (i) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1.00% and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (b) the LIBOR rate plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin was based on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from time to time. In December 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended to replace LIBOR with the secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (i.e., SOFR) so that borrowings under the Facilities denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to 2.00% depending on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA. The Facilities are subject to a SOFR floor of 0.00%. As of September 28, 2024, the Company’s margin was 1.00% for SOFR loans, the commitment fee rate was 0.175%, and the letter of credit fee rate was 1.00%. A portion of the Term Loan is subject to the Interest Rate Swap.

 

The Term Loan matures in November 2026 and amortizes in quarterly installments with the balance payable on the maturity date. The Company can elect to prepay some or all of the outstanding balance from time to time without penalty, which will offset future quarterly amortization installments. Due to prepayments previously made, the required future principal payments on the Term Loan are $0 for fiscal 2025, $0 for fiscal 2026, and $600.0 for fiscal 2027. The Revolving Credit Facility expires in November 2026, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility will be payable.

 

28

 

 

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including the following financial covenants: (a) a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 5.00:1.00, which maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio shall decrease during certain subsequent test periods as set forth in the Credit Agreement (provided that, no more than once during the term of the Facilities, such maximum ratio applicable at such time may be increased by the Company by 0.50:1.00 for a period of 12 months after the consummation of a material acquisition); and (b) a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio of 2.00:1.00. As of September 28, 2024 the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

 

The Credit Agreement allows the Company to, among other things, make distributions to stockholders, repurchase its stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that the Company complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Credit Agreement.

 

The Company’s domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the Company’s obligations and the domestic subsidiaries’ guaranty are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.

 

As of September 28, 2024, $600.0 was outstanding under the Term Loan and $3.7 of the Revolving Credit Facility was being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure the Company’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs. The Company had the ability to borrow an additional $496.3 under the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 28, 2024. On September 30, 2024, the Company paid $32.0 on the Term Loan.

 

Senior Notes

 

In fiscal 2022, RBCA issued $500.0 aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes. The net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes were approximately $492.0, after deducting initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses, and were used to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge.

 

The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The Indenture contains covenants limiting the ability of the Company to (i) incur additional indebtedness or guarantee indebtedness, (ii) declare or pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions to stockholders, (iii) make investments, (iv) create liens or use assets as security in other transactions, (v) merge or consolidate, or sell, transfer, lease or dispose of substantially all of its assets, (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates, and (vii) sell or transfer certain assets. These covenants contain various exceptions, limitations and qualifications. At any time that the Senior Notes are rated investment grade, certain of these covenants will be suspended.

 

The Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior unsecured basis by RBC Bearings and RBCA’s domestic subsidiaries that also guarantee the Credit Agreement.

 

Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 4.375% and is payable semi–annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.

 

The Senior Notes will mature on October 15, 2029. The Company may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at any time on or after October 15, 2024 at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company sells certain of its assets or experiences specific kinds of changes in control, the Company must offer to purchase the Senior Notes.

 

29

 

 

Foreign Borrowing Arrangements

 

The Foreign Credit Line is a CHF 5.0 (approximately $5.9 USD) credit line with Credit Suisse (Switzerland) Ltd. to provide our Swiss subsidiary, Schaublin SA, future working capital, if necessary. As of September 28, 2024, $0.1 was being utilized to provide a bank guarantee. Fees associated with the Foreign Credit Line are nominal.

 

In July 2024, Swiss Tool Systems, one of our foreign subsidiaries, purchased the building where it operates for CHF 7.1 (approximately $8.4 USD) and took out a 10-year fixed-rate mortgage on the building for CHF 4.0 (approximately $4.5 USD).

 

Interest Rate Swap

 

The Company is exposed to market risks relating to fluctuations in interest rates.

 

To hedge against this risk, in fiscal 2023, the Company entered into the Interest Rate Swap with a third-party financial counterparty under the Credit Agreement. The Interest Rate Swap was executed to protect the Company from interest rate volatility on our variable-rate Term Loan. The Interest Rate Swap became effective December 30, 2022 and is comprised of a $600.0 notional with a maturity of three years. The notional was $400.0 as of September 28, 2024. We receive a variable rate based on one-month Term SOFR and pay a fixed rate of 4.455%. As of September 28, 2024, approximately 82% of our debt bore interest at a fixed rate after giving effect to the Interest Rate Swap in place. The notional on the Interest Rate Swap amortizes as follows:

 

Year 1: $600.0

Year 2: $400.0

Year 3: $100.0

 

The Interest Rate Swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge of the variability of the first unhedged interest payments (the hedged transactions) paid over the hedging relationship’s specified time period of three years attributable to the borrowing’s contractually specified interest index on the hedged principal of its general borrowing program or replacement or refinancing thereof.

 

Cross Currency Swap

 

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as some of our subsidiaries operate in various countries.

 

On August 12, 2024, the Company entered into the Cross Currency Swap with a third-party financial counterparty. The objective of the Cross Currency Swap is to economically hedge the Company’s net investment in its lower-tier European subsidiary, Schaublin, against adverse changes in the Swiss franc/U.S. dollar exchange rate. The Cross Currency Swap is based upon a net investment of CHF 69.4 ($80.0 USD) notional amount with a three-year maturity date. RBC receives a fixed U.S. dollar amount on a month-to-month basis based upon a fixed annual rate of 2.77% of the notional amount. At maturity, RBC will net-settle the principal of the Cross Currency Swap in cash with the counterparty. The Cross Currency Swap has been designated as a net investment hedge on an after-tax basis.

Cash Flows

 

Six-month Period Ended September 28, 2024 Compared to the Six-month Period Ended September 30, 2023

 

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities:

 

   FY25   FY24   $
Change		 
Net cash provided by/(used in):            
Operating activities  $140.4   $114.8   $25.6 
Investing activities   (25.2)   (32.5)   7.3 
Financing activities   (89.0)   (90.4)   1.4 
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash   (0.6)   (0.7)   0.1 
Increase/(decrease) in cash and cash equivalents  $25.6   $(8.8)  $34.4 

 

During the first six months of fiscal 2025, we generated cash of $140.4 from operating activities compared to $114.8 during the same period of fiscal 2024. The increase of $25.6 was the result of an increase in net income of $13.9 and a favorable change in operating assets and liabilities of $12.7, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of non-cash activity of $1.0. The favorable change in operating assets and liabilities is detailed in the table below. The change in non-cash activity was driven by $4.0 more in stock-based compensation and $0.5 more in depreciation and amortization, offset by $3.7 more in deferred taxes, $0.6 less in amortization of deferred financing costs, $0.6 less in consolidation and restructuring charges, $0.3 less in losses on asset dispositions and $0.3 less in noncash operating lease expense.

 

The following table summarizes the impact on cash flow from operating assets and liabilities for fiscal 2025 versus fiscal 2024.

Total change in operating assets and liabilities:  $(42.6)  $(55.3)  $12.7 

 

During the first six months of fiscal 2025, we used $25.2 for investing activities as compared to $32.5 used in the first six months of fiscal 2024. This decrease in cash used was primarily attributable to a $18.7 decrease in business acquisition costs while capital expenditures increased $11.0 period over period.

 

During the first six months of fiscal 2025, we used cash of $89.0 for financing activities compared to $90.4 in the first six months of fiscal 2024. This decrease in cash used was primarily attributable to $22.2 more exercises of stock-based awards and $4.5 received from proceeds related to the Swiss Tool mortgage, partially offset by $18.0 less in proceeds received in drawdowns from our revolving credit facility, $5.4 more payments made on outstanding debt, $0.5 more principal payments made on finance lease obligations and $1.4 more repurchases of common stock.

Capital Expenditures

 

Our capital expenditures were $25.2 for the first six months of fiscal 2025 compared to $14.2 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. We expect to make additional capital expenditures of $20.0 to $25.0 during the remainder of fiscal 2025 in connection with our existing business. We expect to fund these capital expenditures principally through existing cash and internally generated funds. We may also make substantial additional capital expenditures in connection with acquisitions.

 

Obligations and Commitments

 

The Company’s fixed contractual obligations and commitments are primarily comprised of our debt obligations disclosed in Note 10 in Part I, Item 1 of this report. We also have lease obligations which are materially consistent with what we disclosed in our Annual Report.

 

Other Matters

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We believe the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the consolidated financial statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. There were no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the first six months of fiscal 2025.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company has $3.7 of outstanding standby letters of credit, all of which are under the Revolving Credit Facility. We also have a contractual obligation for licenses related to the implementation and upgrade of an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. The remaining contractual obligation related to these ERP license costs of $7.6 will end in June of 2026.

 

Other than the items noted above, we had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 28, 2024.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are exposed to market risks that arise during the normal course of business from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

 

Interest Rates. We currently have variable rate debt outstanding under the Term Loan. We regularly evaluate the impact of interest rate changes on our net income and cash flow and take action to limit our exposure when appropriate. As discussed in Note 13 in Part I, Item 1 of this report, we have utilized an interest rate swap to fix a portion of the variable rate interest expense associated with the Term Loan. As of September 28, 2024, approximately 82% of our debt bears interest at a fixed rate, after giving effect to the interest rate swap agreement in place.

 

32

 

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. Our operations in the following countries utilize the following currencies as their functional currency:

 

  ● Australia – Australian dollar   ● India – rupee
  ● Canada – Canadian dollar   ● Mexico – peso
  ● China – Chinese yuan   ● Poland – zloty
  ● France and Germany – euro   ● Switzerland – Swiss franc
  ● England – British pound      

 

As a result, we are exposed to risk associated with fluctuating currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and these currencies. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in earnings. Approximately 11% of our net sales were impacted by foreign currency fluctuations for both the three- and six-month periods ended September 28, 2024. Approximately 11% and 12% of our net sales were impacted by foreign currency fluctuations for the three- and six-month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively. For those foreign countries where we have sales, a strengthening in the U.S. dollar as we have seen over the past few years or devaluation in the local currency would reduce the value of our local inventory as presented in our consolidated financial statements. In addition, a stronger U.S. dollar or a weaker local currency would result in reduced net sales, operating profit and shareholders’ equity due to the impact of foreign exchange translation on our consolidated financial statements. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may make our products more expensive for others to purchase or increase our operating costs, affecting our competitiveness and our profitability.

 

Changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies and volatile economic, political and market conditions in emerging market countries have in the past adversely affected our financial performance and may in the future adversely affect the value of our assets located outside the United States, our gross profit and our results of operations.

 

We periodically enter into derivative financial instruments to reduce the effect of fluctuations in exchange rates on our business. As of September 28, 2024, the Company had a cross currency swap, which is discussed in further detail within Notes 6 and 13 in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 28, 2024. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 28, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were (1) designed to ensure that information relating to our Company required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and (2) effective, in that they provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the first six months of fiscal 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

Total   100%   100%   100%   100%

 

Remaining Performance Obligations

 

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of orders meeting the definition of a contract for which work has not been performed or has been partially performed and excludes unexercised contract options. The duration of the majority of our contracts, as defined by ASC Topic 606, is less than one year. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient, which allows the Company to exclude remaining performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for such contracts with a duration of more than one year was approximately $487.3 at September 28, 2024. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 64% and 90% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 and 24 months, respectively, with the remainder recognized thereafter.

 

Contract Balances

 

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections affects accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. These assets and liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets on an individual contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

 

Contract Assets (Unbilled Receivables) - Pursuant to the over-time revenue recognition model, revenue may be recognized prior to the customer being invoiced. An unbilled receivable is recorded to reflect revenue that is recognized when (1) the cost-to-cost method is applied and (2) such revenue exceeds the amount invoiced to the customer.

 

As of September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, current contract assets were $8.2 and $6.9, respectively, and included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in contract assets was primarily due to the recognition of revenue related to the satisfaction or partial satisfaction of performance obligations prior to billing, partially offset by amounts billed to customers during the period. As of September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, the Company did not have any contract assets classified as noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Contract Liabilities (Deferred Revenue) - The Company may receive a customer advance or deposit, or have an unconditional right to receive a customer advance, prior to revenue being recognized. Since the performance obligations related to such advances may not have been satisfied, a contract liability is established. Advance payments are not considered a significant financing component as the timing of the transfer of the related goods or services is at the discretion of the customer.

 

As of September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, current contract liabilities were $25.1 and $22.5, respectively, and are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in current contract liabilities was primarily due to advance payments received and the reclassification of a portion of advance payments received from the noncurrent portion of contract liabilities partially offset by revenue recognized on customer contracts. For the three and six months ended September 28, 2024, the Company recognized revenues of $5.9 and $11.6 that were included in the current contract liability balance as of March 30, 2024. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized revenues of $4.7 and $9.3 that were included in the current contract liability balance at April 1, 2023.

 

As of September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, noncurrent contract liabilities were $13.1 and $19.9, respectively, and included within other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The decrease in noncurrent contract liabilities was primarily due to the reclassification of a portion of advance payments received to the current portion of contract liabilities.

 

Variable Consideration

 

The amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for goods and services is not generally subject to significant variations. However, the Company does offer certain customers rebates, prompt payment discounts, end-user discounts and the right to return eligible products. The Company estimates this variable consideration using the expected value amount, which is based on historical experience. The Company includes estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The Company adjusts the estimate of revenue at the earlier of when the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. Accrued customer rebates were $36.7 and $38.0 at September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, respectively, and are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Net Income Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

5. Net Income Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

 

Basic net income per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.

 

Diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding using the treasury stock method. Common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and the conversion of our 5.00% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (the “MCPS”) to common shares.

 

We exclude outstanding stock options, stock awards and the MCPS from the calculations if the effect would be anti-dilutive. The dilutive effect of the MCPS is calculated using the if-converted method. The if-converted method assumes that these securities were converted to shares of common stock at the beginning of the reporting period to the extent that the effect is dilutive. If the effect is anti-dilutive, we calculate net income per share attributable to common stockholders by adjusting the numerator for the effect of the cumulative MCPS dividends for the respective period.

 

During the three-month period ended September 28, 2024, certain holders of the MCPS elected to exercise their right to convert their MCPS shares into common shares prior to the mandatory conversion date of October 15, 2024. This resulted in 1,500 MCPS shares being converted to 661 common shares during the period.

 

As of September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, there were 4,598,500 and 4,600,000 MCPS shares outstanding, respectively. For the three-month and six-month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, the effect of assuming the conversion of these MCPS shares into shares of common stock was anti-dilutive, and therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. Accordingly, net income was reduced by cumulative MCPS dividends, as presented in our consolidated statement of operations, for purposes of calculating the numerator in the diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders.

 

For the three months ended September 28, 2024, 50,205 employee stock options and no restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. For the six months ended September 28, 2024, 60,907 employee stock options and 3,250 restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. The inclusion of these employee stock options and restricted shares would have been anti-dilutive.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, 139,198 employee stock options and no restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. For the six months ended September 30, 2023, 140,672 employee stock options and 105 restricted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. The inclusion of these employee stock options and restricted shares would have been anti-dilutive.

 

The table below reflects the calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding for each period presented as well as the computation of basic and diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders.

Fair Value [Abstract]  
Fair Value

6. Fair Value

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be expected to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy: 

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

As a result of the occurrence of triggering events such as purchase accounting for acquisitions, the Company measures certain assets and liabilities based on Level 3 inputs.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses, short-term borrowings, long-term debt, and derivatives in the form of an interest rate swap and a cross currency swap. Refer to Note 13 for further details on our derivative instruments.

 

Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term borrowings are a reasonable estimate of their fair value. Long-term assets held on our balance sheets related to benefit plan obligations are measured at fair value.

 

The fair value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate debt, based on quoted market prices, was $480.7 and $456.8 at September 28, 2024 and March 30, 2024, respectively. The carrying value of this debt was $494.6 at September 28, 2024 and $494.2 at March 30, 2024. The fair value of long-term fixed-rate debt was measured using Level 1 inputs. Due to the nature of fair value calculations for variable-rate debt, the carrying value of the Company’s long-term variable-rate debt is a reasonable estimate of its fair value.

 

The fair value of the interest rate swap was $(0.8) at September 28, 2024 and included in other noncurrent liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the interest rate swap was $1.6 at March 30, 2024, and included in other noncurrent assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the interest rate swap is measured using Level 2 inputs.

 

The fair value of the cross currency swap was $(2.8) at September 28, 2024, and included in other noncurrent liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the cross currency swap was measured using Level 2 inputs.

 

The Company does not believe it has significant concentrations of risk associated with the counterparties to its financial instruments.

Domestic Credit Facility

 

In fiscal 2022, RBC Bearings Incorporated, our top holding company, and our Roller Bearing Company of America, Inc. subsidiary (“RBCA”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer, and the other lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement provides the Company with (a) a $1,300.0 term loan (the “Term Loan”), which was used to fund a portion of the cash purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge Industrial, Inc. (“Dodge”) and to pay related fees and expenses, and (b) a $500.0 revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and together with the Term Loan, the “Facilities”). Debt issuance costs associated with the Credit Agreement totaled $14.9 and are being amortized over the life of the Credit Agreement.

 

Initially, amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bore interest, at the Company’s option, at either, (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (i) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1.00% and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (b) the LIBOR rate plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin was based on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from time to time. In December 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended to replace LIBOR with the secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“SOFR”) so that borrowings under the Facilities denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to 2.00% depending on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA. The Facilities are subject to a SOFR floor of 0.00%. As of September 28, 2024, the Company’s margin was 1.00% for SOFR loans, the commitment fee rate was 0.175%, and the letter of credit fee rate was 1.00%. A portion of the Term Loan is subject to a fixed-rate interest swap as discussed in Note 13.

 

The Term Loan matures in November 2026 and amortizes in quarterly installments with the balance payable on the maturity date. The Company can elect to prepay some or all of the outstanding balance from time to time without penalty, which will offset future quarterly amortization installments. Due to prepayments previously made, the required future principal payments on the Term Loan are $0 for fiscal 2025, $0 for fiscal 2026, and $600.0 for fiscal 2027. The Revolving Credit Facility expires in November 2026, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility will be payable.

 

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including the following financial covenants: (a) a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 5.00:1.00, which maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio shall decrease during certain subsequent test periods as set forth in the Credit Agreement (provided that, no more than once during the term of the Facilities, such maximum ratio applicable at such time may be increased by the Company by 0.50:1.00 for a period of 12 months after the consummation of a material acquisition); and (b) a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio of 2.00:1.00. As of September 28, 2024 the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

 

The Credit Agreement allows the Company to, among other things, make distributions to stockholders, repurchase its stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that the Company complies with certain requirements and limitations of the Credit Agreement.

 

The Company’s domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the Company’s obligations and the domestic subsidiaries’ guaranty are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.

 

As of September 28, 2024, $600.0 was outstanding under the Term Loan and $3.7 of the Revolving Credit Facility was being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure the Company’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs. The Company had the ability to borrow an additional $496.3 under the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 28, 2024. On September 30, 2024, the Company paid $32.0 on the Term Loan.

 

Senior Notes

 

In fiscal 2022, RBCA issued $500.0 aggregate principal amount of 4.375% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes were approximately $492.0, after deducting initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses, and were used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of Dodge.

 

The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Indenture”). The Indenture contains covenants limiting the ability of the Company to (i) incur additional indebtedness or guarantee indebtedness, (ii) declare or pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions to stockholders, (iii) make investments, (iv) create liens or use assets as security in other transactions, (v) merge or consolidate, or sell, transfer, lease or dispose of substantially all of its assets, (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates, and (vii) sell or transfer certain assets. These covenants contain various exceptions, limitations and qualifications. At any time that the Senior Notes are rated investment grade, certain of these covenants will be suspended.

 

The Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior unsecured basis by RBC Bearings and RBCA’s domestic subsidiaries that also guarantee the Credit Agreement.

 

Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 4.375% and is payable semi–annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.

 

The Senior Notes will mature on October 15, 2029. The Company may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at any time on or after October 15, 2024 at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company sells certain of its assets or experiences specific kinds of changes in control, the Company must offer to purchase the Senior Notes.

 

Foreign Borrowing Arrangements

 

One of our foreign subsidiaries, Schaublin SA, has a CHF 5.0 (approximately $5.9 USD) credit line (the “Foreign Credit Line”) with Credit Suisse (Switzerland) Ltd. to provide future working capital, if necessary. As of September 28, 2024, $0.1 was being utilized to provide a bank guarantee and no outstandings amounts were open. Fees associated with the Foreign Credit Line are nominal.

 

In July 2024, Swiss Tool Systems, one of our foreign subsidiaries, purchased the building where it operates for CHF 7.1 (approximately $8.4 USD) and took out a 10-year fixed-rate mortgage on the building for CHF 4.0 (approximately $4.5 USD).

Income Taxes

11. Income Taxes

 

The Company files income tax returns in numerous U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, with returns subject to examination for varying periods, but generally back to and including the year ended March 28, 2020, although certain tax credits generated in earlier years are open under statute from March 29, 2008. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years ended before March 28, 2020.

 

The effective income tax rates for the three-month periods ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, were 21.9% and 22.7%, respectively. In addition to discrete items, the effective income tax rates for both these periods were different from the U.S. statutory rates due to the foreign-derived intangible income provision and U.S. credit for increasing research activities, which decreased the rate, and state income taxes, foreign income taxes, and nondeductible compensation, which increased the rate.

 

The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended September 28, 2024 of 21.9% included $1.1 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation partially offset by $0.1 of other discrete tax expenses. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended September 28, 2024 would have been 23.4%. The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended September 30, 2023 of 22.7% included $0.1 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three-month period ended September 30, 2023 would have been 22.8%. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that some of its unrecognized tax positions may be effectively settled within the next 12 months due to the closing of audits and the statute of limitations expiring in various jurisdictions. The decrease in the Company’s unrecognized tax positions, pertaining primarily to federal and state credits and state tax, is estimated to be approximately $1.9.

 

The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 28, 2024 was 22.6% compared to 22.3% for the six-month period ended September 30, 2023. The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 28, 2024 of 22.6% included $1.7 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation partially offset by $0.1 of other discrete tax expenses. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the six-month period ended September 28, 2024 would have been 23.6%. The effective income tax rate for the six-month period ended September 30, 2023 of 22.3% included $0.5 of discrete tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the six-month period ended September 30, 2023 would have been 22.7%.

 

Global Minimum Tax

 

In October 2021, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) announced an Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting including Pillar Two Model Rules defining the global minimum tax, which calls for the taxation of large multinational corporations at a minimum rate of 15%. Subsequently multiple sets of administrative guidance have been issued. Many non-US tax jurisdictions have either recently enacted legislation to adopt certain components of the Pillar Two Model Rules beginning in 2024 with the adoption of additional components in later years or announced their plans to enact legislation in future years. We are continuing to evaluate the impacts of enacted legislation and pending legislation to enact Pillar Two Model Rules in the non-US tax jurisdictions in which we operate. At this time, we do not anticipate the enacted or pending legislation to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Derivative Financial Instruments

13. Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations, including market risks relating to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Changes in the fair values of the derivative are recorded each period in earnings or accumulated other comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is effective as part of a hedged transaction. Gains and losses on derivative instruments reported in accumulated other comprehensive income are subsequently included in earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged item. The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

 

In fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a three-year U.S. dollar-denominated interest rate swap (the “Interest Swap”) with a third-party financial counterparty under the Credit Agreement (see Note 10). The Interest Rate Swap was executed to protect the Company from interest rate volatility on our variable-rate Term Loan. The Interest Rate Swap became effective December 30, 2022 and is comprised of a $600.0 notional with a maturity of three years. The notional was $400.0 as of September 28, 2024. We receive a variable rate based on one-month Term SOFR and pay a fixed rate of 4.455%. As of September 28, 2024, approximately 82% of our debt bears interest at a fixed rate after giving effect to the interest rate swap agreement in place. The notional on the Interest Rate Swap amortizes as follows:

 

Year 1: $600.0

Year 2: $400.0

Year 3: $100.0

 

The Interest Rate Swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge of the variability of the first unhedged interest payments (the hedged transactions) paid over the hedging relationship’s specified time period of three years attributable to the borrowing’s contractually specified interest index on the hedged principal of its general borrowing program or replacement or refinancing thereof. The fair value of the Interest Rate Swap has been disclosed in Note 6. The balance in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the Interest Rate Swap has been disclosed in Note 4. The gain/loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings has been recorded as interest income/expense on the Interest Rate Swap and included in the operating section of the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

 

On August 12, 2024, the Company entered into a three-year pay Swiss franc fixed/receive U.S. dollar fixed, cross currency swap (the “Cross Currency Swap”) with a third-party financial counterparty. The objective of the Cross Currency Swap is to economically hedge the Company’s net investment in its lower-tier European subsidiary, Schaublin, against adverse changes in the Swiss franc/U.S. dollar exchange rate. The Cross Currency Swap is based upon a net investment of CHF 69.4 ($80.0 USD) notional amount with a three-year maturity date. RBC receives a fixed U.S. dollar amount on a month-to-month basis based upon a fixed annual rate of 2.77% of the notional amount. At maturity, RBC will net-settle the principal of the Cross Currency Swap in cash with the counterparty.

 

The Cross Currency Swap has been designated as a net investment hedge on an after-tax basis. The fair value of the Cross Currency Swap has been disclosed in Note 6. The balance in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the Cross Currency Swap has been disclosed in Note 4.

14. Subsequent Events

 

On October 15, 2024, each then-outstanding share of the MCPS converted into 0.4413 shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion rate was based on a value for the common stock equal to the lower of (i) the average of the daily VWAPs in the 20-trading-day period through October 14, 2024 (the daily VWAP is the per share volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for a given trading day as reported by Bloomberg) or (ii) $226.63. Because the VWAP average for the 20 trading days through October 14 was $292.55, the $226.63 common stock value was utilized to produce the conversion rate of 0.4413 shares of common stock for each share of MCPS. This is known as the “Minimum Conversion Rate” in the Certificate of Designations defining the terms of the MCPS.

 

The dividend on the MCPS that accrued through the conversion date was paid on the conversion date to holders of record on October 1, 2024 and therefore was not factored into the conversion rate.

 

The Company issued 2,029,955 shares of common stock upon the conversion of the MCPS.

 

Because the MCPS is no longer outstanding, the Company will not pay dividends on the MCPS in the future. This will amount to a cash savings of $23.0 per year.

Credit agreement, description of variable rate basis.     amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bore interest, at the Company’s option, at either, (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (i) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1.00% and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (b) the LIBOR rate plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin was based on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from time to time. In December 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended to replace LIBOR with the secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“SOFR”) so that borrowings under the Facilities denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to 2.00% depending on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA. The Facilities are subject to a SOFR floor of 0.00%. As of September 28, 2024, the Company’s margin was 1.00% for SOFR loans, the commitment fee rate was 0.175%, and the letter of credit fee rate was 1.00%.
