NOVANTA INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF JULY 3, 2020
(Unaudited)
1.
Novanta Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “Novanta”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) is a leading global supplier of core technology solutions that give medical and advanced industrial original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) a competitive advantage. Novanta combines deep proprietary technology expertise and competencies in photonics, vision and precision motion with a proven ability to solve complex technical challenges. This enables Novanta to engineer core components and sub-systems that deliver extreme precision and performance, tailored to the customers’ demanding applications.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in United States (“U.S.”) dollars and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the instructions to Form 10-Q and the provisions of Regulation S-X pertaining to interim financial statements. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted. The interim consolidated financial statements and notes included in this report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. In the opinion of management, these interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments and accruals of a normal and recurring nature necessary to fairly state the results of the interim periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or for any future periods.
The Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are prepared for each quarterly period ending on the Friday closest to the end of the calendar quarter, with the exception of the fourth quarter which always ends on December 31.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period in which such revisions are deemed to be necessary. The Company evaluates its estimates based on historical experience, current conditions, including estimated economic implications of the COVID-19 pandemic, and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The accounting estimates assessed included, but were not limited to, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts and credit losses, inventory and related reserves and the carrying value of goodwill and other long-lived assets. While there was not a material change to the consolidated financial statements related to these estimates as of and for the three and six months ended July 3, 2020, the Company’s future assessment of the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors, could result in material impacts to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The following table provides a brief description of recent Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”):
|
Standard |
|
Description |
|
Effective Date |
|
Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters |
|
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” |
|
ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, including: (i) the exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items; (ii) the exception to the requirement to recognize a deferred tax liability for equity method investments when a foreign subsidiary becomes an equity method investment (or vice-versa); and (iii) the exception for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year. ASU 2019-12 also simplifies GAAP for other areas of ASC 740 by clarifying and amending the existing guidance.
|
|
January 1, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. |
|
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2019-12 on its consolidated financial statements. |
|
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” |
|
ASU 2016-13 requires the measurement of all expected credit losses of financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates.
|
|
January 1, 2020. |
|
The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 during the first quarter of 2020. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |
|
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference rate reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting.” |
|
ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. |
|
Upon issuance. ASU 2020-04 is elective. |
|
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on its consolidated financial statements. |
2. Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue when control of promised goods or services is transferred to customers. The transfer of control generally occurs upon shipment when title and risk of loss pass to the customer. The vast majority of the Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of distinct products. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive

(Unaudited)
in exchange for such products, which is generally at contractually stated prices. Sales taxes and value added taxes collected concurrently with revenue generating activities are excluded from revenue.
Performance Obligations
Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized at a point in time, upon shipment, rather than over time.
At the request of its customers, the Company may perform professional services, generally for the maintenance and repair of products previously sold to those customers and for engineering services. Professional services for the maintenance and repair of products are typically short in duration, mostly less than
The Company occasionally sells separately priced non-standard/extended warranty services or preventative maintenance plans with the sale of products. The transfer of control over the service plans is over time. The Company recognizes the related revenue ratably over the terms of the service plans. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using the expected cost plus a margin.
Shipping & Handling Costs
The Company accounts for shipping and handling activities that occur after the transfer of control over the related goods as fulfillment activities rather than performance obligations. The shipping and handling fees charged to customers are recognized as revenue and the related costs are recorded in cost of revenue at the time of transfer of control.
Warranties
Practical Expedients and Exemptions
The Company expenses incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract when incurred if the expected amortization period is one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.
The Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a financing component because the transfer of a promised good to a customer and the customer’s payment for that good are typically one year or less. The Company does not disclose the value of the remaining performance obligation for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.

Contract Liabilities
Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and advance payments from customers, including amounts that are refundable. These contract liabilities are classified as either current or long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize the related revenue. As of July 3, 2020 and December 31, 2019, contract liabilities were $

5. Earnings per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing consolidated net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
For diluted earnings per common share, the denominator includes the dilutive effect of outstanding common share equivalents. For the three and six months ended July 3, 2020 and June 28, 2019, respectively, weighted average shares outstanding for the diluted earnings per common share included the dilutive effect of outstanding restricted stock units, stock options, and total shareholder return performance-based restricted stock units, determined using the treasury stock method. The dilutive effects of market-based contingently issuable shares are included in the weighted average common share calculation based on the number of shares, if any, that would be issuable as of the end of the reporting period assuming the end of the reporting period is also the end of the performance period. Dilutive effects of attainment-based contingently issuable shares granted to the former Laser Quantum Limited (“Laser Quantum”) noncontrolling interest shareholders, as well as the non-GAAP EPS performance-based restricted stock units will be included in the weighted average common share calculation when the performance targets have been achieved.

6. Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” establishes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the third is considered unobservable:
|
|
• |
Level 1: Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets which the Company can access |
|
|
• |
Level 2: Observable inputs other than those described in Level 1 |
|
|
• |
Level 3: Unobservable inputs |
Current Assets and Liabilities
The Company’s cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, which represent an asset the Company measures at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company determines the fair value of cash equivalents using a market approach based on quoted prices in active markets. The fair values of cash, accounts receivable, income taxes receivable, accounts payable, income taxes payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their carrying values because of their short-term nature.

Foreign Currency Contracts
The Company addresses market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates through a risk management program that includes the use of derivative financial instruments to mitigate certain balance sheet foreign currency transaction exposures. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts as a part of its strategy to manage exposures related to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts is reported either in other current assets or in other current liabilities as of the end of the period.
Contingent Considerations
On July 31, 2019, the Company acquired ARGES. Under the purchase and sale agreement for the ARGES acquisition, the former owner of ARGES is eligible to receive contingent consideration based on the achievement of certain revenue targets by the Company from August 2019 through December 2026. The undiscounted range of possible contingent consideration is
On April 16, 2019, the Company acquired Ingenia CAT, S.L. (“Ingenia”).

The Company addresses market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates through a risk management program that includes the use of derivative financial instruments to mitigate certain foreign currency transaction exposures from future settlement of non-functional currency monetary assets and liabilities as of the end of a period. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes. Gains and losses on derivative financial instruments substantially offset losses and gains on the underlying hedged exposures. Furthermore, the Company manages its exposures to counterparty risks on derivative instruments by entering into contracts with a diversified group of major financial institutions and by actively monitoring outstanding positions.

Performance Stock Units
The Company typically grants two types of performance-based stock awards to certain members of the executive management team: non-GAAP EPS performance-based restricted stock units (“EPS-PSUs”) and relative total shareholder return performance-based restricted stock units (“TSR-PSUs”). Both types of performance-based restricted stock units generally cliff vest on the first day following the end of the performance period.
The number of common shares to be issued upon settlement following vesting of the EPS-PSUs is determined based on the Company’s cumulative non-GAAP EPS over a three-year performance period against the performance targets established by the Company’s Board of Directors at the time of grant and will be in the range of
The number of shares to be issued upon settlement following vesting of the TSR-PSUs is determined based on the relative market performance of the Company’s common shares compared to the Russell 2000 Index over a performance period using a payout formula established by the Company’s Board of Directors at the time of grant and will be in the range of

13. Income Taxes
The Company determines its estimated annual effective tax rate at the end of each interim period based on full-year forecasted pre-tax income and facts known at that time. The estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to the year-to-date pre-tax income at the end of each interim period with the cumulative effect of any changes in the estimated annual effective tax rate being recorded in the fiscal quarter in which the change is determined. The tax effect of significant unusual items is reflected in the period in which they occur. Since the Company is incorporated in Canada, it is required to use Canada’s statutory tax rate of
The Company maintains a valuation allowance on balances of certain U.S. state net operating losses and certain non-U.S. tax attributes that the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that they will not be realized. A valuation allowance is

required when, based upon an assessment of various factors, including recent operating loss history, anticipated future earnings, and prudent and reasonable tax planning strategies, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In conjunction with the Company’s ongoing review of its actual results and anticipated future earnings, the Company continuously reassesses the possibility of releasing the valuation allowance currently in place on its deferred tax assets. For the three and six months ended July 3, 2020, the Company recognized a tax benefit of $

Legal Contingencies
In April 2020, the Company received notification of an arbitration demand filed with the American Arbitration Association against a business acquired by the Company in June 2019. The arbitration demand was filed by a contract counterparty to a joint product development agreement entered into by the business before Novanta acquired it. The arbitration demand alleges breach of contract and other claims arising out of allegations that the business failed to engage in required marketing activities for the product developed under the joint product development agreement. The claimant is seeking compensatory and punitive damages, lost profits and other relief. The Company believes that the claims are without merit and no amount has been accrued for in the consolidated financial statements.
The Company is subject to various other legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses the potential financial exposure on a quarterly basis. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether an exposure is reasonably estimable. Because of uncertainties related to these matters, accruals are based only on the best information available as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet. As additional information becomes available, the Company reassesses the potential liability related to any pending claims and litigations and may revise its estimates. When a material loss contingency is reasonably possible but not probable, the Company does not record a liability, but instead discloses the nature and the amount of the claim, and an estimate of the loss or range of loss, if such an estimate can be made. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. The Company does not believe that the outcome of these claims will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial statements but there can be no assurance that any such claims, or any similar claims, would not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
In the normal course of its operations, the Company executes agreements that provide for indemnification and guarantees to counterparties in transactions such as business dispositions, sale of assets, sale of products and operating leases. Additionally, the by-laws of the Company require it to indemnify certain current or former directors, officers, and employees of the Company against expenses incurred by them in connection with each proceeding in which they are involved as a result of serving or having served in certain capacities. Indemnification is not available with respect to a proceeding as to which it has been adjudicated that the person did not act in good faith in the reasonable belief that the action was in the best interests of the Company. Certain of the Company’s officers and directors are also a party to indemnification agreements with the Company. These indemnification agreements provide, among other things, that the director and officer shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such officer or director in connection with any proceeding by reason of his or her relationship with the Company. In addition, the indemnification agreements provide for the advancement of expenses incurred by such director or officer in connection with any proceeding covered by the indemnification agreement, subject to the conditions set forth therein and to the extent such advancement is not prohibited by law. The indemnification agreements also set out the procedures for determining entitlement to indemnification, the requirements relating to notice and defense of claims for which indemnification is sought, the procedures for enforcement of indemnification rights, the limitations on and exclusions from indemnification, and the minimum levels of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to be maintained by the Company.
16. Segment Information
Reportable Segments
The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) utilizes financial information to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. The Company evaluates the performance of, and allocates resources to, its segments based on revenue, gross profit and operating profit. The Company’s reportable segments have been identified based on commonality and adjacency of technologies, applications and customers amongst the Company’s individual product lines. The Company determined that disclosing revenue by specific product was impracticable due to the highly customized and extensive portfolio of technologies offered to customers.

The MD&A contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to the anticipated impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, our financial results and our financial condition; our belief that the Purchasing Managers Index (“PMI”) may provide an indication of the impact of general economic conditions on our sales into the advanced industrial end market; our strategy; anticipated financial performance; expected liquidity and capitalization; drivers of revenue growth and our growth expectations in various markets; management’s plans and objectives for future operations, expenditures and product development and investments in research and development; business prospects; potential of future product releases and expansion of our product and service offerings; anticipated revenue performance; industry trends; market conditions; our competitive positions; changes in economic and political conditions; changes in accounting principles; changes in actual or assumed tax liabilities; expectations regarding tax exposures; anticipated reinvestment of future earnings and dividend policy; anticipated expenditures in regard to the Company’s benefit plans; future acquisitions; integration and anticipated benefits from acquisitions and dispositions; anticipated economic benefits, costs and timelines of restructuring programs; ability to repay our indebtedness; our intentions regarding the use of cash; expectations regarding legal and regulatory environmental requirements and our compliance thereto; and other statements that are not historical facts. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including, but not limited to, the following: economic and political conditions and the effects of these conditions on our customers’ businesses and level of business activities; our significant dependence upon our customers’ capital expenditures, which are subject to cyclical market fluctuations; our dependence upon our ability to respond to fluctuations in product demand; our ability to continually innovate and successfully commercialize our innovations; failure to introduce new products in a timely manner; customer order timing and other similar factors beyond our control; disruptions or breaches in security of our information technology systems; our failure to comply with data privacy regulations; changes in interest rates, credit ratings or foreign currency exchange rates; risks associated with our operations in foreign countries; risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and other events outside our control; our increased use of outsourcing in foreign countries; risks associated with increased outsourcing of components manufacturing; our exposure to increased tariffs, trade restrictions or taxes on our products; negative effects on global economic conditions, financial markets and our business as a result of the United Kingdom’s impending withdrawal from the European Union and the actions of the current U.S. government, including its policies on trade tariffs and reactions from other countries to any new tariffs imposed by the U.S.; violations of our intellectual property rights and our ability to protect our intellectual property against infringement by third parties; risk of losing our competitive advantage; our failure to successfully integrate recent and future acquisitions into our business; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; our restructuring and realignment activities and disruptions to our operations as a result of consolidation of our operations; product defects or problems integrating our products with other vendors’ products; disruptions in the supply of certain key components or other goods from our suppliers; our failure to accurately forecast component and raw material requirements leading to excess inventories or delays in the delivery of our products; production difficulties and product delivery delays or disruptions; our exposure to medical device regulations, which may impede or hinder the approval or sale of our products and, in some cases, may ultimately result in an inability to obtain approval of certain products or may result in the recall or seizure of previously approved products; potential penalties for violating foreign, U.S. federal, and state healthcare laws and regulations; changes in governmental regulations affecting our business or products; our compliance, or failure to comply, with environmental regulations; our failure to implement new information technology systems and software successfully; our failure to realize the full value of our intangible assets; our exposure to the credit risk of some of our customers and in weakened markets; our reliance on third party distribution channels; being subject to U.S. federal income taxation even though we are a non-U.S. corporation; changes in tax laws, and fluctuations in our effective tax rates; any need for additional capital to adequately respond to business challenges or opportunities and repay or refinance our existing indebtedness, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all; our existing indebtedness limiting our ability to engage in certain activities; volatility in the market price for our common shares; and our failure to maintain appropriate internal controls in the future. Other important risk factors that could affect the outcome of the events set forth in these statements and that could affect the Company’s operating results and financial condition are discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 under the heading “Risk Factors” as updated in Part 2, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “future,” “could,” “estimates,” “plans,” “would,” “should,” “potential,” “continues,” and similar words or expressions (as well as other words or expressions referencing future events, conditions or circumstances) identify forward-looking statements. Readers should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Management and the Company disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise any such statement to reflect any change in its expectations or in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statements may be based, or that may affect the likelihood that actual results will differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements, except as required under applicable law.

Accounting Period
The interim financial statements of Novanta Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) are prepared for each quarterly period ending on the Friday closest to the end of the calendar quarter, with the exception of the fourth quarter which always ends on December 31.
Business Overview
We are a leading global supplier of core technology solutions that give medical and advanced industrial original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) a competitive advantage. We combine deep proprietary technology expertise and competencies in photonics, vision and precision motion with a proven ability to solve complex technical challenges. This enables us to engineer core components and sub-systems that deliver extreme precision and performance, tailored to our customers' demanding applications.
Reportable Segments
We operate in three reportable segments: Photonics, Vision, and Precision Motion. The reportable segments and their principal activities consist of the following:
Photonics
Our Photonics segment designs, manufactures and markets photonics-based solutions, including laser scanning, laser beam delivery, CO2 laser, solid state laser, ultrafast laser, and optical light engine products to customers worldwide. The segment serves highly demanding photonics-based applications for advanced industrial processes, metrology, medical and life science imaging, DNA sequencing, and medical laser procedures. The vast majority of the segment’s product offerings are sold to OEM customers. The segment sells these products both directly, utilizing a highly technical sales force, and indirectly, through resellers and distributors.
Vision
Our Vision segment designs, manufactures and markets a range of medical grade technologies, including medical insufflators, pumps and related disposables; visualization solutions; wireless, recorder and video integration technologies for operating room integrations; optical data collection and machine vision technologies; radio frequency identification (“RFID”) technologies; thermal chart recorders; spectrometry technologies, and embedded touch screen solutions. The vast majority of the segment’s product offerings are sold to OEM customers. The segment sells these products both directly, utilizing a highly technical sales force, and indirectly, through resellers and distributors.
Precision Motion
Our Precision Motion segment designs, manufactures and markets optical and inductive encoders, precision motor and motion control sub-assemblies, servo drives, air bearings, and air bearing spindles to customers worldwide. The vast majority of the segment’s product offerings are sold to OEM customers. The segment sells these products both directly, utilizing a highly technical sales force, and indirectly, through resellers and distributors.
End Markets
We primarily operate in two end markets: the medical market and the advanced industrial market.
Medical Market
For the three and six months ended July 3, 2020, the medical market accounted for approximately 55% and 57%, respectively, of our revenue. Revenue from our products sold to the medical market is generally affected by hospital and other healthcare provider capital spending, growth rates of surgical procedures, changes in regulatory requirements and laws, aggregation of purchasing by healthcare networks, changes in technology requirements, timing of OEM customers’ product development and new product launches, changes in customer or patient preferences, and general demographic trends.
Advanced Industrial Market
For the three and six months ended July 3, 2020, the advanced industrial market accounted for approximately 45% and 43%, respectively, of our revenue. Revenue from our products sold to the advanced industrial market is affected by a number of factors, including changing technology requirements and preferences of our customers, productivity or quality investments in a manufacturing
30
environment, the financial condition of our customers, changes in regulatory requirements and laws, and general economic conditions. We believe that the Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) on manufacturing activities specific to different regions around the world may provide an indication of the impact of general economic conditions on our sales into the advanced industrial market.
Strategy
Our strategy is to drive sustainable, profitable growth through short-term and long-term initiatives, including:
|
|
• |
disciplined focus on our diversified business model of providing functionality to long life-cycle OEM customer platforms in attractive medical and advanced industrial niche markets; |
|
|
• |
improving our business mix to increase medical sales as a percentage of total revenue by: |
|
|
- |
introducing new products aimed at attractive medical applications, such as minimally invasive and robotic surgery, ophthalmology, patient monitoring, drug delivery, clinical laboratory testing and life science equipment; |
|
|
- |
deepening our key account management relationships with and driving cross selling of our product offerings to leading medical equipment manufacturers; and |
|
|
- |
pursuing complementary medical technology acquisitions; |
|
|
• |
increasing our penetration of high growth advanced industrial applications, such as laser materials processing, robotics, laser additive manufacturing, automation and metrology, by working closely with OEM customers to launch application specific products that closely match the requirements of each application; |
|
|

broadening our portfolio of enabling proprietary technologies and capabilities through increased investment in new product development, and investments in application development to further penetrate existing customers, while expanding the applicability of our solutions to new markets; |
|
|
• |
broadening our product and service offerings through the acquisition of innovative and complementary technologies and solutions in medical and advanced industrial technology applications, including increasing our recurring revenue streams such as services, spare parts and consumables; |
|
|
• |
expanding sales and marketing channels to reach new target customers; |
|
|
• |
improving our existing operations to expand profit margins and improve customer satisfaction by implementing lean manufacturing principles, strategic sourcing across our major production sites; and optimizing and limiting the growth of our fixed cost base; and |
|
|
• |
attracting, retaining, and developing world-class talented and motivated employees. |
Significant Events and Updates
Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
On March 27, 2020, we entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the third amended and restated credit agreement, dated as of December 31, 2019 (the “Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”). The First Amendment exercised a portion of the $200 million uncommitted accordion feature under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and increased the revolving credit facility commitment by $145 million, from $350 million to $495 million, and reset the uncommitted accordion feature to $200 million for potential future expansion.
Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business
Our Employees
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken proactive, aggressive action to protect the health and safety of our employees. We established steering committees at both the corporate level and at each of our facilities to provide leadership for and manage our COVID-19 risk mitigation actions and countermeasures. We enacted rigorous safety measures in all of our facilities, including implementing social distancing protocols, requiring working from home for those employees that do not need to be physically present on the manufacturing floor or in our facilities to perform their work, suspending travel, spreading production over more shifts, implementing temperature checks at the entrances to our facilities, frequently disinfecting our workspaces and providing masks to those employees who must be physically present in our facilities. We instituted frequent, often daily, employee communications, providing guidance and updates to our employees with regard to COVID-19 safety procedures and status. We expect to continue these measures until we determine that the COVID-19 pandemic is adequately contained for purposes of our business. We
31
have incurred and expect to continue to incur additional costs to protect the health of our employees. We may take further actions as government authorities require or recommend or as we determine to be in the best interest of our employees.
We are committed to retaining and supporting our employees during this pandemic. To retain our employees, we issued to substantially all of our employees a special one-time restricted stock unit grant in April 2020 totaling $14.4 million in the aggregate, which will vest in February 2021. During the three months ended July 3, 2020, we provided special cash incentive bonuses to the majority of our on-site production staff for keeping our factories open and running during the pandemic. In addition to retention, these actions were implemented to create an ownership mindset and focus among all employees for the duration of the crisis and through the expected recovery, while maintaining the Company’s talent and capabilities.
Executive Compensation
The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors approved the 2020 compensation plans for our executive officers and a Section 16 officer (collectively, the “Officers”) in February 2020. To support our business during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Officers agreed to waive their 2020 merit and promotional increases, eliminate their 2020 cash bonuses, and take two weeks of unpaid time-off. Further, the Officers will not receive the one-time special restricted stock unit grant issued to the rest of the employees. These actions will result in an aggregate amount of $1.6 million (approximately 50%) reduction in the 2020 cash compensation, assuming bonuses were paid at target, for these Officers previously approved by the Compensation Committee in February 2020.
In June 2020, our Board of Directors agreed to forgo the cash retainers payable to our non-employee directors for the third quarter of 2020. This action will result in an aggregate amount of $0.1 million (approximately 25%) reduction in cash compensation of our Board of Directors for 2020.
Our Customers
The outbreak has significantly increased economic and demand uncertainty. The spread of COVID-19 has caused a global economic slowdown and may cause a severe global recession. In the event of a prolonged economic recession, overall demand for our products could decline further and our business would be adversely affected to a greater extent.
Our Facilities
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, governmental authorities worldwide implemented numerous evolving measures to try to contain the spread of the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, limits on social gatherings, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, business shutdowns and social distancing. We have important manufacturing operations in the U.S., the U.K., Germany, and China, all of which have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. As of the date of this filing, our manufacturing facilities around the world are in operation. While governmental measures may be modified or extended in the event of a resurgence of COVID-19 infections and in the absence of effective vaccines becoming available, we have taken measures to protect our employees and expect that our manufacturing facilities will remain operational. In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, we have experienced limited absenteeism from those employees who are required to be on-site to perform their jobs.
Our Supply Chain
We have experienced limited disruption to our supply chain as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic to date. We regularly monitor the financial health and manufacturing output of companies in our supply chain. Hardship on our suppliers or sub-suppliers caused by the COVID-19 pandemic could cause further disruption in our ability to obtain raw materials or components required to manufacture our products, adversely affecting our operations. To mitigate the risk of any potential supply interruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic, we are identifying alternative suppliers, sourcing raw materials from different supplier locations, and taking other actions to ensure our supply of raw materials. Although we are mitigating potential supply interruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic, if certain suppliers cannot produce a key component for us, or if the receipt of certain materials is otherwise delayed, we may miss our scheduled shipment deadlines and our relationship with customers may be harmed. Additionally, restrictions on or disruptions of transportation, such as reduced availability of air transport, port closures and increased border controls or closures, has resulted in higher costs and delays, both for obtaining raw materials from suppliers and shipping finished products to customers.
32
Our Liquidity
With respect to liquidity, we are evaluating and taking actions to reduce costs and cash expenditures across the Company. These actions include reducing hiring activities, restricting travel, adjusting employee compensation by eliminating fiscal year 2020 cash bonuses and base salary increases, implementing an unpaid time-off program for substantially all of our non-production workforce, limiting discretionary spending, reducing or deferring spending on capital investment projects, deferring certain U.S. payroll tax payments for the remainder of 2020 in accordance with relief provisions under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), deferring lease payments on certain facilities and temporarily suspending repurchases under our share repurchase plans. As of July 3, 2020, we deferred $1.1 million in certain U.S. payroll tax payments under the CARES Act.
As of July 3, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $97.5 million and available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility of $372.1 million. We have reviewed numerous potential scenarios in connection with the impact of COVID-19 on our business. Based on our analysis, we believe our existing balances of cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash flows from our operating activities, and available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our cash needs arising in the ordinary course of business for the next twelve months. Additionally, we believe we will remain in compliance with our debt covenants for the next twelve months.
In connection with our initiatives to preserve cash from a prolonged economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we reached an agreement with the former owner of ARGES GmbH (“ARGES”) in April 2020 to postpone a portion of the deferred cash consideration. We paid the seller €5.0 million in cash in June 2020 and expect to pay €20.0 million in cash in December 2020.

Overview of Financial Results
Total revenue of $144.7 million for the three months ended July 3, 2020 decreased $10.4 million, or 6.7%, from the prior year period primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic as we experienced decreased demand in the advanced industrial market related to reductions in industrial manufacturing spending and in the medical market as a result of deferrals of elective surgical procedures. The effect of our prior year acquisitions resulted in an increase in revenue of $1.7 million, or 1.1%. In addition, foreign currency exchange rates adversely impacted our revenue by $1.3 million, or 0.9%, for the three months ended July 3, 2020.
Total revenue of $300.2 million for the six months ended July 3, 2020 decreased $12.1 million, or 3.9%, from the prior year period primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic as we experienced decreased demand in the advanced industrial market related to reductions in industrial manufacturing spending and in the medical market as a result of deferrals of elective surgical procedures. The effect of our prior year acquisitions resulted in an increase in revenue of $8.3 million, or 2.6%. In addition, foreign currency exchange rates adversely impacted our revenue by $2.9 million, or 0.9%, for the six months ended July 3, 2020.
Operating income of $13.7 million for the three months ended July 3, 2020 decreased $1.4 million, or 9.3%, from the prior year period. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in gross profit of $7.1 million as a result of lower revenue and an increase in research and development and engineering (“R&D”) spending of $1.1 million, partially offset by decreases in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses of $4.3 million and restructuring, acquisition, and related costs of $2.1 million.
Operating income of $27.0 million for the six months ended July 3, 2020 decreased $2.5 million, or 8.6%, from the prior year period. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in gross profit of $8.9 million as a result of lower revenue and an increase in R&D spending of $2.4 million, offset by decreases in SG&A expenses of $5.4 million and restructuring, acquisition, and related costs of $2.5 million.
Basic earnings per common share (“Basic EPS”) of $0.33 for the three months ended July 3, 2020 increased $0.03 from the prior year period. Diluted earnings per common share (“Diluted EPS”) of $0.33 for the three months ended July 3, 2020 increased $0.04 from the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to a decrease in income tax provision, partially offset by a decrease in operating income.
Basic EPS of $0.67 for the six months ended July 3, 2020 increased $0.02 from the prior year period. Diluted EPS of $0.66 for the six months ended July 3, 2020 increased $0.02 from the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to a decrease in income tax provision, partially offset by a decrease in operating income.

Interest Income (Expense), Net
Net interest expense was $1.7 million for the three months ended July 3, 2020, versus $2.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease in net interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in the weighted average interest rate on our senior credit facilities. The weighted average interest rate on our senior credit facilities was 2.40% during the three months ended July 3, 2020, versus 3.51%
38
during the three months ended June 28, 2019. As of July 3, 2020, our outstanding borrowings under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement denominated in Euro, British Pound, and U.S. Dollars were $173.2 million, $13.7 million, and $35.0 million, respectively.
Net interest expense was $3.4 million for the six months ended July 3, 2020, versus $4.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease in net interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in the weighted average interest rate on our senior credit facilities. The weighted average interest rate on our senior credit facilities was 2.40% during the six months ended July 3, 2020, versus 3.64% during the six months ended June 28, 2019.
Foreign Exchange Transaction Gains (Losses), Net
Foreign exchange transaction gains (losses) were $0.3 million net losses for the three months ended July 3, 2020, versus less than $0.1 million net gains in the prior year period.

Income Tax Provision (Benefit)
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended July 3, 2020 was 0.3%, versus 19.5% for the prior year period. Our effective tax rate of 0.3% for the three months ended July 3, 2020 differs from the Canadian statutory tax rate of 29.0% primarily due to the mix of income earned in jurisdictions with varying tax rates, estimated deductions for Foreign Derived Intangible Income, U.K. patent box deductions and other tax credits, and a release of a portion of the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets in Canada. For the three months ended July 3, 2020, the release of the valuation allowance had a benefit of 11.4% on our effective tax rate.
Our effective tax rate of 19.5% for the three months ended June 28, 2019 differs from the Canadian statutory tax rate of 29.0% primarily due to the mix of income earned in jurisdictions with varying tax rates, estimated deductions for Foreign Derived Intangible Income, U.K. and patent box deductions and other tax credits.
Our effective tax rate for the six months ended July 3, 2020 was (0%), versus 10.3% for the prior year period. Our effective tax rate of (0%) for the six months ended July 3, 2020 differs from the Canadian statutory tax rate of 29.0% primarily due to the mix of income earned in jurisdictions with varying tax rates, estimated deductions for Foreign Derived Intangible Income, U.K. patent box deductions and other tax credits, windfall tax benefits upon vesting of certain stock-based compensation awards during the period, and a release of a portion of the valuation allowance. For the six months ended July 3, 2020, the windfall tax benefits upon vesting of certain share-based compensation awards and the release of the valuation allowance had a benefit of 11.2% and 5.7%, respectively, on our effective tax rate.
Our effective tax rate of 10.3% for the six months ended June 28, 2019 differs from the Canadian statutory tax rate of 29.0% primarily due to the mix of income earned in jurisdictions with varying tax rates, estimated deductions for Foreign Derived Intangible Income, U.K. patent box deductions and other tax credits, and windfall tax benefits upon vesting of certain stock-based compensation awards during the period. For the six months ended June 28, 2019, the windfall tax benefits upon vesting of certain stock-based compensation awards had a benefit of 10.6% on our effective tax rate.
On March 27, 2020, the U.S. federal government enacted the CARES Act in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act is an emergency economic stimulus package which, among other things, contains numerous provisions concerning income taxes. The CARES Act will not have a material impact on our income taxes or related disclosures.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing, and financing activities. Our primary ongoing cash requirements are funding operations, capital expenditures, investments in businesses, and repayment of debt and related interest payments. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We believe our future operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our future operating and capital expenditure cash needs for the foreseeable future, including at least the next 12 months. The availability of borrowing capacity under our revolving credit
39
facility provides another potential source of liquidity for acquisitions. We may also seek to raise additional capital, which could be in the form of bonds, convertible debt or equity, to fund business development activities or other future investing cash requirements, subject to approval by the lenders in the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. There is no assurance that such capital will be available on reasonable terms or at all.
Significant factors affecting the management of our ongoing cash requirements are the adequacy of available bank lines of credit and our ability to attract long term capital with satisfactory terms. The sources of our liquidity are subject to all of the risks of our business and could be adversely affected by, among other factors, risks associated with events outside our control, such as the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, a decrease in demand for our products, our ability to integrate current and future acquisitions, deterioration in certain financial ratios, availability of borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and market changes in general. See “Risks Relating to Our Common Shares and Our Capital Structure” included in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
Our ability to make payments on our indebtedness and to fund our operations may be dependent upon the earnings and the distribution of funds from our subsidiaries. Local laws and regulations and/or the terms of our indebtedness restrict certain of our subsidiaries from paying dividends and transferring assets to us. There is no assurance that the applicable laws and regulations and/or the terms of our indebtedness will permit our subsidiaries to provide us with sufficient dividends, distributions or loans when necessary.
As of July 3, 2020, $61.4 million of our $97.5 million cash and cash equivalents was held by subsidiaries outside of Canada and the United States. Generally, our intent is to use cash held in these foreign subsidiaries to fund our local operations or acquisitions by those local subsidiaries and to pay down borrowings under our Senior Credit Facilities (defined below). Approximately $187.0 million of our outstanding term loan and revolver borrowings under our Senior Credit Facilities were held in our subsidiaries outside of Canada and the United States. Additionally, we may use intercompany loans to address short-term cash flow needs for various subsidiaries.
In connection with our initiatives to preserve cash from a prolonged economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we reached an agreement with the former owner of ARGES in April 2020 to settle net working capital adjustments and to postpone a portion of the deferred cash consideration. We paid the seller €5.0 million in cash in June 2020 and expect to pay €20.0 million in cash in December 2020. We also are deferring certain U.S. payroll tax payments in 2020 in accordance with relief provisions under the CARES Act. As of July 3, 2020, we deferred $1.1 million in certain U.S. payroll tax payments under the CARES Act.
In addition, with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic impact on liquidity, we are evaluating and have taken actions to reduce costs and cash expenditures across the Company. These include reducing hiring activities, restricting travel, adjusting employee compensation by eliminating fiscal year 2020 cash bonuses and base salary increases, implementing an unpaid time-off program for substantially all of our non-production workforce, limiting discretionary spending, reducing or deferring spending on capital investment projects, and deferring lease payments on certain facilities.
Senior Credit Facilities
In December 2019, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, consisting of a $100.0 million U.S. dollar equivalent euro-denominated 5-year term loan facility (approximately €90.2 million) and a $350.0 million 5-year revolving credit facility (collectively, the “Senior Credit Facilities”). The Senior Credit Facilities mature in December 2024 and included an uncommitted “accordion” feature pursuant to which the commitments under the revolving credit facility may be increased by an additional $200.0 million in aggregate, subject to certain customary conditions. The term loan facility requires quarterly scheduled principal repayments of approximately €1.1 million beginning in March 2020 with the remaining principal balance due upon maturity. We may make additional principal payments at any time, which will reduce the next quarterly installment payment due. We may make payments to pay down our revolving credit facility with cash on hand and cash generated from future operations at any time.
On March 27, 2020, we entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and exercised a portion of the uncommitted accordion feature. The First Amendment increased the revolving credit facility commitment under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by $145.0 million, from $350.0 million to $495.0 million, and reset the uncommitted accordion feature to $200.0 million for potential future expansion.
As of July 3, 2020, we had a €87.9 million euro-denominated term loan (approximately $99.1 million) and $122.9 million revolver borrowings outstanding under our Senior Credit Facilities. The borrowings outstanding under the Senior Credit Facilities bear interest at rates based on (a) the Base Rate, as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, plus a margin ranging between 0.25% to 1.25% per annum, determined by reference to our consolidated leverage ratio, or (b) the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, plus a margin ranging between 1.25% and 2.25% per annum, determined by reference to our consolidated leverage ratio. In addition, we are obligated to pay a commitment fee on the unused
40
portion of the revolving credit facility, ranging between 0.20% and 0.40% per annum, determined by reference to our consolidated leverage ratio.
The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains various covenants that we believe are usual and customary for this type of agreement, including a maximum consolidated leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement). The following table summarizes these financial covenants and our compliance therewith as of July 3, 2020:

Share Repurchase Plans
Our Board of Directors may approve share repurchase plans from time to time. Under these repurchase plans, shares may be repurchased at our discretion based on ongoing assessment of the capital needs of the business, the market price of our common shares, and general market conditions. Shares may also be repurchased through an accelerated share purchase agreement, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. Repurchases may be made under certain SEC regulations, which would permit common shares to be repurchased when we would otherwise be prohibited from doing so under insider trading laws. While the share repurchase plans are generally intended to offset dilution from equity awards granted to our employees and directors, the plans do not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common shares. No time limit is typically set for the completion of the share repurchase plans, and the plans may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We expect to fund share repurchases through cash on hand and cash generated from operations.
In October 2018, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan (the “2018 Repurchase Plan”) authorizing the repurchase of $25.0 million worth of common shares. Share repurchases have been made under the 2018 Repurchase Plan pursuant to Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. During the six months ended July 3, 2020, we repurchased 65 thousand shares for an aggregate purchase price of $5.5 million at an average price of $84.55 per share under the 2018 Repurchase Plan. We had $9.5 million available for share repurchases under the 2018 Repurchase Plan as of July 3, 2020.
In February 2020, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase plan (the “2020 Repurchase Plan”) authorizing the repurchase of an additional $50.0 million worth of common shares. We expect that share repurchases will be made under the 2020 Repurchase Plan pursuant to Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 after the 2018 Repurchase Plan is completed. No shares have been repurchased under the 2020 Repurchase Plan to date.
In an effort to preserve cash in light of the economic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have temporarily suspended repurchases under our share repurchase plans since April 2020.

Operating Cash Flows
Cash provided by operating activities was $51.6 million for the six months ended July 3, 2020, versus $20.9 million for the prior year period. Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended July 3, 2020 increased from the prior year period primarily
41
due to working capital improvements resulting in an increase in cash flows from accounts receivable and inventory, and a decrease in income tax payments.
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended July 3, 2020 was positively impacted by an increase in our inventory turnover ratio from 3.1 at December 31, 2019 to 3.2 at July 3, 2020 and a decrease in accounts receivable, offset by a decrease in our days payables outstanding which decreased from 53 days at December 31, 2019 to 49 days at July 3, 2020. During the six months ended July 3, 2020, we paid the 2019 annual employee bonuses which had been accrued for as of December 31, 2019.
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 28, 2019 was negatively impacted by an increase in our days sales outstanding which increased from 51 days at December 31, 2018 to 52 days at June 28, 2019, a decrease in our days payables outstanding which decreased from 52 days at December 31, 2018 to 51 days at June 28, 2019 and an increase in inventories, as our inventory turnover ratio decreased from 3.4 at December 31, 2018 to 3.2 at June 28, 2019. During the six months ended June 28, 2019, we paid the first milestone payment under the earn-out agreement for our acquisition of Zettlex Holdings Limited amounting to $3.9 million and paid the 2018 annual employee bonuses, both of which had been accrued for as of December 31, 2018.
Investing Cash Flows
Cash used in investing activities was $7.3 million for the six months ended July 3, 2020, primarily driven by capital expenditures of $4.6 million and a payment for intangible assets of $2.6 million related to our 2016 asset acquisition of video signal processing and management technologies.
Cash used in investing activities was $34.4 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019, primarily driven by the Ingenia and Med X Change acquisitions. In connection with these acquisitions, we paid $28.9 million cash considerations (net of cash acquired of $1.0 million) during the six months ended June 28, 2019. We also paid $5.6 million for capital expenditures during the six months ended June 28, 2019.
We have no material commitments to purchase property, plant, and equipment as of July 3, 2020. We expect to use an aggregate of approximately $6 million to $8 million in fiscal 2020 for capital expenditures related to investments in new property, plant and equipment.
Financing Cash Flows
Cash used in financing activities was $25.0 million for the six months ended July 3, 2020, primarily due to $7.9 million of payroll tax payments on share-based compensation awards, ARGES deferred purchase price payment of $5.6 million, $5.5 million of repurchases of common shares, $2.5 million repayment of our term loan, and $1.6 million of fees paid in connection with the First Amendment to our Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
Cash used in financing activities was $2.8 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019, primarily due to $16.1 million of term loan payments, $6.7 million of payroll tax payments upon vesting of stock-based compensation awards, and $3.3 million of repurchases of common stock, partially offset by $23.6 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility used to fund the Ingenia and Med X Change acquisitions.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Contractual Obligations
Contractual Obligations
Our contractual obligations primarily consist of the principal and interest associated with our Senior Credit Facilities, operating and finance leases, purchase commitments, pension obligations, deferred cash considerations associated with acquisitions, contingent considerations and earn-outs. Such contractual obligations are described in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, each included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. As of July 3, 2020, other than the First Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, we have not entered into any other material new or modified contractual obligations since the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Through July 3, 2020, we have not entered into any other off-balance sheet arrangements or material transactions with any unconsolidated entities or other persons.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1 to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Our primary market risk exposures are foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and interest rate sensitivity. During the three months ended July 3, 2020, there have been no material changes to the information included under Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of July 3, 2020, the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of July 3, 2020.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended July 3, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
43
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of these claims will have a material adverse effect upon its financial condition or results of operations but there can be no assurance that any such claims, or any similar claims, would not have a material adverse effect upon its financial condition or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The Company’s risk factors are described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors included in our Annual Report.
To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, it may also heighten many of the risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. The ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows is dependent on future developments, including the duration of the pandemic and the related length of its impact on the global economy, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted and is expected to further adversely impact our business and results of operations.
In 2020, a strain of novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19, was declared a pandemic and has spread across the world, including throughout the United States, Europe and Asia. The outbreak and government measures taken in response have also had a significant adverse impact, both direct and indirect, on our businesses and the economy. We have experienced weakened demand from certain customers in the advanced industrial and medical end-markets, which has adversely affected and is expected to continue to adversely affect our revenues. For example, healthcare providers have deferred elective medical procedures in order to focus on combatting the pandemic, which has significantly reduced demand for certain of our medical products. Certain other customers have delayed their research and development programs, which has negatively affected the demand for some of our products. If these trends continue, our revenues will continue to be negatively impacted.
We have also faced difficulty sourcing some materials and components necessary to fulfill production requirements and meeting scheduled shipments due to shipping and transportation disruptions. If these disruptions were to worsen, our ability to manufacture our products or meet our customers’ schedules may be adversely affected and our business would be harmed. Even if we are able to find alternate sources of supply for such materials or components, they may cost more or be of lower quality, which could affect our profitability, financial condition and business. While the impact of the pandemic on our manufacturing capabilities has been limited to date, there can be no assurance that our ability to manufacture our products will not be disrupted in the future, due to sickness of employees, mandatory stay-at-home orders, travel restrictions, supply interruptions or other potential disruptions. We have also faced and may face in the future limitations on our employee resources as a results of various causes, including stay-at-home orders from local governments, mandatory furloughs for one week per quarter for substantially all non-manufacturing employees, sickness of employees or their families, or the desire of employees to avoid contact with large groups of people. The pandemic has also diverted management resources and the prolonged work-from-home arrangements have created business continuity and increased cybersecurity risks.
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to rapidly evolve. The extent to which the outbreak impacts our business, liquidity and financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the continued geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the pandemic, the location, duration and magnitude of future waves of infection, travel restrictions and social distancing in the United States, the European Union, China and other countries, the duration and extent of business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken to contain and treat the disease. If we or our customers experience prolonged shutdowns or other business disruptions beyond current expectations, our ability to conduct our business in the manner and within planned timelines could be materially adversely impacted, and our business and financial results may continue to be adversely affected.
Additionally, concerns over the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic have caused extreme volatility in financial and other capital markets, which adversely impacted and may continue to adversely impact our stock price and our ability to access capital markets.
