NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

1)     Management Statement

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 and the financial position of Standex International Corporation (“Standex”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), at December 31, 2019. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The following unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes do not contain information which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited annual consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended June 30, 2019. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2019 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K and in particular the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2019. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Unless otherwise noted, references to years are to the Company’s fiscal years.

 

The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. We evaluated subsequent events through the date and time our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.

 

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test.  Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.  ASU 2017-04 also clarifies the requirements for excluding and allocating foreign currency translation adjustments to reporting units related to an entity's testing of reporting units for goodwill impairment. It further clarifies that an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.  ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019.  The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-04 on our goodwill impairment testing procedures and our consolidated financial statements.

 

 

 

2)     Acquisitions

 

The Company’s recent acquisitions are strategically significant to the future growth prospects of the Company. At the time of the acquisition and December 31, 2019, the Company evaluated the significance of each acquisition on a standalone basis and in aggregate, considering both qualitative and quantitative factors.

 

GS Engineering

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, the Company acquired Ohio-based Genius Solutions Engineering Company (d/b/a GS Engineering). The privately held company is a provider of specialized “soft surface” skin texturized tooling. GS Engineering primarily serves the automotive end market and its operating results are included in the Company’s Engraving segment.

 

The Company paid $30.5 million in cash for all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of GS Engineering.  The preliminary purchase price was allocated to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on a preliminary estimate of their fair values on the closing date. The Company has commenced a formal valuation of the acquired assets and liabilities and has updated the preliminary intangible assets based on the preliminary valuation results. Goodwill from the transaction is attributable to the combined organization utilizing the GS technology across its global production footprint to enable customers worldwide to benefit from a combined offering for harmonized designs across a variety of surfaces and materials.

 

 

Intangible assets of $8.9 million are preliminarily recorded, consisting of $5.6 million for developed technology to be amortized over a period of 15 years, $0.9 million for indefinite lived trademarks, and $2.4 million of customer relationships to be amortized over 13 years. The Company’s assigned fair values are preliminary as of September 30, 2019 until reviewed closing financial statements, including U.S. 338(h)10 elections, can be prepared by an independent accountant and agreed to by both parties as required by the stock purchase agreement.  The goodwill of $18.1 million created by the transaction is deductible for income tax purposes.

On the last business day of the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, the Company acquired Regional Mfg. Specialists, Inc. (now named Agile Magnetics).  The New Hampshire based, privately held company is a provider of high-reliability magnetics to customers in the semiconductor, military, aerospace, healthcare, and general industrial industries.  The Company has included the results of Agile in its Electronics segment in the consolidated financial statements.

Piazza Rosa Group

 

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company acquired the Piazza Rosa Group.  The Italy-based privately held company is a leading provider of mold and tool treatment and finishing services for the automotive and consumer products markets.  We have included the results of the Piazza Rosa Group in our Engraving segment.

 

The Company paid $10.1 million in cash for all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Piazza Rosa Group and also paid $2.8 million subsequent to closing in order to satisfy assumed debt of the entity at the time of acquisition. The Company has estimated that total cash consideration will be adjusted by $2.6 million based upon achievement of certain revenue metrics over the next three years. The Company made the first payment of $0.9 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, and the second payment of $0.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 based on achievement of the revenue metrics during the first two years following acquisition.

 

Acquisition-Related Costs

 

Acquisition-related costs include costs related to acquired businesses and other pending acquisitions. These costs consist of (i) deferred compensation and (ii) acquisition-related professional service fees and expenses, including financial advisory, legal, accounting, and other outside services incurred in connection with acquisition activities, and regulatory matters related to acquired entities. These costs do not include purchase accounting expenses, which we define as acquired backlog and the step-up of inventory to fair value, or the amortization of the acquired intangible assets.

 

Deferred compensation costs relate to the acquisition of Horizon Scientific on October 16, 2016, for which payments were due to the seller of $2.8 million on the second anniversary and $5.6 million on the third anniversary of the closing date of the purchase. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 we recorded deferred compensation costs of $0.5 million and $1.2 million respectively related to estimated deferred compensation earned by the Horizon Scientific seller to date.  The payments are contingent on the seller remaining an employee of the Company, with limited exceptions, at each anniversary date. The final payment due to the seller was made during the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, and this liability is now considered settled. 

 

Acquisition related costs consist of miscellaneous professional service fees and expenses for our recent acquisitions.

3) Revenue From Contracts With Customers

 

Effective July 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard, ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASC 606) using the modified retrospective method to contracts that were not completed as of June 30, 2018. The adoption of ASC 606 represents a change in accounting principle that provides enhanced revenue recognition disclosures.

 

Most of the Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation which represents the product or service being sold to the customer. Some contracts include multiple performance obligations such as a product and the related installation and/or extended warranty. Additionally, most of the Company’s contracts offer assurance type warranties in connection with the sale of a product to customers. Assurance type warranties provide a customer with assurance that the product complies with agreed-upon specifications. Assurance type warranties do not represent a separate performance obligation.

 

 

In general, the Company recognizes revenue at the point in time control transfers to its customer based on predetermined shipping terms. Revenue recognized under long-term contracts within the Engineering Technologies group for highly customized customer products that have no alternative use and in which the contract specifies the Company has a right to payment for its costs, plus a reasonable margin are recognized over time. For products manufactured over time, the transfer of control is measured pro rata, based upon current estimates of costs to complete such contracts. Losses on contracts are fully recognized in the period in which the losses become determinable. Revisions in profit estimates are reflected on a cumulative basis in the period in which the basis for such revision becomes known.

Contract Balances

 

Contract assets represent sales recognized in excess of billings related to work completed but not yet shipped for which revenue is recognized over time. Contract assets are recorded as prepaid and other current assets. Contract liabilities are customer deposits for which revenue has not been recognized. Current contract liabilities are recorded as accrued expenses.

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections results in billed receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. When consideration is received from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of a contract, a contract liability is recorded. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue after control of the goods and services are transferred to the customer and all revenue recognition criteria have been met.

 

 

 

 

4)      Fair Value Measurements

 

The financial instruments shown below are presented at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models may be applied.

 

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair values. Hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities and the methodologies used in valuation are as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. The Company’s deferred compensation plan assets consist of shares in various mutual funds (for the deferred compensation plan, investments are participant-directed) which invest in a broad portfolio of debt and equity securities. These assets are valued based on publicly quoted market prices for the funds’ shares as of the balance sheet dates.

 

Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices in an active market, that are observable either directly or indirectly through correlation with market data. For foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps, the Company values the instruments based on the market price of instruments with similar terms, which are based on spot and forward rates as of the balance sheet dates. The Company has considered the creditworthiness of counterparties in valuing all assets and liabilities.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs based upon the Company’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between any levels of the fair value measurement hierarchy at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels as of the date they occur.

 

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

(a) The fair value of our contingent consideration arrangement is determined based on our evaluation as to the probability and amount of any deferred compensation that has been earned to date.

 

 

Our financial liabilities based upon Level 3 inputs consist of contingent consideration arrangements relating to our acquisitions of Horizon Scientific, Piazza Rosa, and GS Engineering. We are contractually obligated to pay contingent consideration payments in connection with the Horizon Scientific acquisition based on the criteria of continued employment of the seller on the second and third anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition. The seller of Horizon remained employed on the second and third anniversaries of the closing date and payments were made to the seller in the second quarters of fiscal year 2019 and 2020. This obligation is considered settled as of December 31, 2019.  We are contractually obligated to pay contingent consideration payments in connection with the Piazza Rosa acquisition based on the achievement of certain revenue targets during each of the first three years following acquisition. Piazza Rosa exceeded the defined revenue targets during the first and second years and payment were made to the Piazza Rosa sellers during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and the second quarter of fiscal 2020.  The Company is also obligated to pay contingent consideration to the sellers of GS Engineering in the event that certain revenue and gross margin targets are achieved during the five years following acquisition.  As of December 31, 2019, the targets set in the GS stock purchase agreement have not yet been met due to the length of time since the acquisition.

 

We will update our assumptions each reporting period based on new developments and record such amounts at fair value based on the revised assumptions until the consideration is paid. As of December 31, 2019, neither the range of outcomes nor the assumptions used to develop the estimate had changed.

 

 

 

5)     Discontinued Operations

 

In pursuing our business strategy, the Company continues to divest certain businesses and record activities of these businesses as discontinued operations.

 

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, in order to focus its financial assets and managerial resources on its remaining portfolio of businesses, the Company decided to divest its Cooking Solutions Group, which consisted of three operating segments and a minority interest investment. In connection with the divestiture, during the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company sold its minority interest investment to the majority shareholders. During the third quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell the three operating segments to The Middleby Corporation for a cash purchase price of $105 million, subject to post-closing adjustments and various transaction fees.

 

The transaction closed on March 31, 2019 and resulted in a pre-tax gain of $20.5 million less related transaction expenses of $4.4 million. The Company reported a tax benefit related to the sale due to the write-off of deferred tax liabilities related to the Cooking Solutions Group. Because the transaction closed on a non-business day, cash proceeds related to the sale were not received until the next business day which resulted in a receivable of $106.9 million recorded at March 31, 2019.

9)     Warranties

 

The expected cost associated with warranty obligations on our products is recorded as a component of cost of sales when the revenue is recognized. The Company’s estimate of warranty cost is based on contract terms and historical warranty loss experience that is periodically adjusted for recent actual experience. Since warranty estimates are forecasts based on the best available information, claims costs may differ from amounts provided. Adjustments to initial obligations for warranties are made as changes in the obligations become reasonably estimable.

Bank Credit Agreements

 

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, the Company entered into a five-year Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Facility”, or “facility”). The facility has a borrowing limit of $500 million. The facility can be increased by an amount of up to $250 million, in accordance with specified conditions contained in the agreement. The facility also includes a $10 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $35 million sublimit for letters of credit.

 

At December 31, 2019, the Company had standby letters of credit outstanding, primarily for insurance purposes, of $7.6 million and had the ability to borrow $252.3 million under the facility. At December 31, 2019, the carrying value of the current borrowings under the facility approximates fair value.

 

 

 

11)      Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company is exposed to market risks from changes in interest rates, commodity prices and changes in foreign currency rates. We selectively use derivative financial instruments in order to manage these risks. Information about the Company’s derivative financial instruments is as follows:

 

Interest Rate Swaps

 

From time to time as dictated by market opportunities, the Company enters into interest rate swap agreements designed to manage exposure to interest rates on the Company’s variable rate indebtedness. The Company recognizes all derivatives on its balance sheet at fair value. The Company has designated its interest rate swap agreements, including those that are forward-dated, as cash flow hedges, and changes in the fair value of the swaps are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with the swaps will be reported by the Company in interest expense.

 

 

The Company’s effective swap agreements convert the base borrowing rate on $75 million of debt due under our revolving credit agreement from a variable rate equal to LIBOR to a weighted average fixed rate of 2.13% at December 31, 2019. The fair value of the swaps, recognized in accrued expenses and in other comprehensive income, is as follows (in thousands, except percentages):

                  $ (1,363)     $ (1,380)  

 

The Company reported no losses for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019, as a result of hedge ineffectiveness. Future changes in these swap arrangements, including termination of the agreements, may result in a reclassification of any gain or loss reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings as an adjustment to interest expense. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to these instruments is being amortized into interest expense concurrent with the hedged exposure.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

 

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are used to limit the impact of currency fluctuations on certain anticipated foreign cash flows, such as collections from customers and loan payments between subsidiaries. The Company enters into such contracts for hedging purposes only. The Company has designated certain of these currency contracts as hedges, and changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with these contracts will be reported in net income. At December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, the Company had outstanding forward contracts related to hedges of intercompany loans with net unrealized losses of $(3.1) million and $(3.1) million, respectively, which approximate the unrealized gains and losses on the related loans. The contracts have maturity dates ranging from 2020 to 2023, which correspond to the related intercompany loans.

 

The notional amounts of the Company’s forward contracts, by currency, are as follows:

The Company's effective tax rate from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2020 was 19.0% compared with 23.6% for the prior year quarter.  The effective tax rate in fiscal 2020 was lower due to a $0.8 million discrete tax benefit related to receipt of formal approval by the tax authorities for application of a beneficial “high tech” tax rate for certain of our Chinese operations.

 

 

14)     Earnings Per Share

While the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company’s management does not believe that the outcome of any of the currently existing legal matters will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow. The Company accrues for losses related to a claim or litigation when the Company’s management considers a potential loss probable and can reasonably estimate such potential loss.

18)      Restructuring

 

The Company has undertaken cost reduction and facility consolidation initiatives that have resulted in severance, restructuring, and related charges.

 

2020 Restructuring Initiatives

 

The Company continues to focus our efforts to reduce cost and improve productivity across our businesses, particularly through headcount reductions, facility closures, and consolidations. Restructuring expenses primarily related to headcount reductions and facility rationalization within our Engraving segment. Thus far, during fiscal year 2020, we have also incurred restructuring expenses related to third party assistance with analysis and implementation of these activities.

 

Prior Year Restructuring Initiatives

 

During the fiscal year 2019, the Company initiated restructuring programs related to:  (1) employee headcount reductions as the Company realigned management functions (2) the exit of unprofitable Engraving businesses, and (3) initiatives intended to improve profitability, streamline production, and enhance capacity to support future growth in the Electronics and Engraving segments.

19)      Leases

 

Effective July 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), using the modified retrospective approach and utilizing the effective date as its date of initial application. As a result, prior periods are presented in accordance with the previous guidance in ASC 840, Leases (“ASC 840”). The Company has elected to apply the ‘package of practical expedients’ which allow us to not reassess i) whether existing or expired arrangements contain a lease, ii) the lease classification of existing or expired leases, or iii) whether previous initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under the new lease standard.

 

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable. The Company does not have material financing leases.

 

Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are initially recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments, which reflects the fixed rate at which the Company could borrow on a collateralized basis the amount of the lease payments in the same currency, for a similar term, in a similar economic environment. To estimate its incremental borrowing rate, a credit rating applicable to the Company is estimated using a synthetic credit rating analysis since the Company does not currently have a rating agency-based credit rating

 

The Company has elected not to recognize leases with an original term of one year or less on the balance sheet. The Company typically only includes an initial lease term in its assessment of a lease arrangement. Options to renew a lease are not included in the Company’s assessment unless there is reasonable certainty that the Company will renew.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Statements contained in this Quarterly Report that are not based on historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “should,” “could,” “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “continue,” or similar terms or variations of those terms or the negative of those terms. There are many factors that affect the Company’s business and the results of its operations and that may cause the actual results of operations in future periods to differ materially from those currently expected or anticipated. These factors include, but are not limited to: materially adverse or unanticipated legal judgments, fines, penalties or settlements; conditions in the financial and banking markets, including fluctuations in exchange rates and the inability to repatriate foreign cash; domestic and international economic conditions, including the impact, length and degree of economic downturns on the customers and markets we serve and more specifically conditions in the food service equipment, automotive, construction, aerospace, energy, oil and gas, transportation, consumer appliance and general industrial markets; lower-cost competition; the relative mix of products which impact margins and operating efficiencies in certain of our businesses; the impact of higher raw material and component costs, particularly steel, petroleum based products, refrigeration components and certain materials used in electronics parts; an inability to realize the expected cost savings from restructuring activities including effective completion of plant consolidations, cost reduction efforts including procurement savings and productivity enhancements, capital management improvements, strategic capital expenditures, and the implementation of lean enterprise manufacturing techniques; the potential for losses associated with the exit from or divestiture of businesses that are no longer strategic or no longer meet our growth and return expectations; the inability to achieve the savings expected from global sourcing of raw materials and diversification efforts in emerging markets; the impact on cost structure and on economic conditions as a result of actual and threatened increases in trade tariffs; the impact of the current coronavirus on our China supply chain as well as the demand for our products and services in China; the inability to attain expected benefits from acquisitions and the inability to effectively consummate and integrate such acquisitions and achieve synergies envisioned by the Company; market acceptance of our products; our ability to design, introduce and sell new products and related product components; the ability to redesign certain of our products to continue meeting evolving regulatory requirements; the impact of delays initiated by our customers; and our ability to increase manufacturing production to meet demand; and potential changes to future pension funding requirements. In addition, any forward-looking statements represent management's estimates only as of the day made and should not be relied upon as representing management's estimates as of any subsequent date. While the Company may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company and management specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, even if management's estimates change.

 

Overview

 

We are a leading manufacturer of a variety of products and services for diverse commercial and industrial markets. We have nine operating segments aggregated into five reportable segments: Engraving, Electronics, Engineering Technologies, Hydraulics, and Food Service Equipment. Overall management, strategic development and financial control are led by the executive staff at our corporate headquarters located in Salem, New Hampshire. 

 

Our long-term strategy is to create, improve, and enhance shareholder value by building larger, more profitable industrial platforms through a value creation system that assists management in meeting specific corporate and business unit financial and strategic performance goals. In so doing, we expect to focus our financial assets and managerial resources on our higher growth and operating margin businesses while considering divestiture of those businesses that we feel are not strategic or do not meet our growth and return expectations. The Standex Value Creation System is a standard methodology which provides consistent tools used throughout the company in order to achieve our organization’s goal of transforming from its historic roots as a holding company to an efficient operating company. The Standex Value Creation System employs four components: Balanced Performance Plan, Standex Growth Disciplines, Standex Operational Excellence, and Standex Talent Management. The Balanced Performance Plan process aligns annual goals throughout the business and provides a standard reporting, management and review process by setting and meeting annual and quarterly targets that support our short and long-term goals. The Standex Growth Disciplines use a set of tools and processes including market maps, growth lane ways, and market tests to identify opportunities to expand the business organically and through acquisitions. Standex Operational Excellence employs a standard playbook and processes, including LEAN, to eliminate waste and improve profitability, cash flow and customer satisfaction. Finally, the Standex Talent Management process is an organizational development process that provides training, development, and succession planning for our employees throughout our worldwide organization. The Standex Value Creation System ties all disciplines in the organization together under a common umbrella by providing standard tools and processes to deliver our business objectives.

 

It is our objective to invest in our higher growth and operating margin businesses through both organic initiatives and acquisitions. Organically, we seek to identify and implement growth initiatives such as new product development, geographic expansion, and the introduction of products and technologies into new markets and applications, key accounts and strategic sales channel partners. Inorganically, we look to add strategically aligned or “bolt on” acquisitions to strengthen these core businesses, creating both sales and cost synergies and accelerating their growth and margin improvement. We have a particular focus on identifying and investing in opportunities that complement our products and will increase the global presence and capabilities of our core businesses.

As part of our ongoing strategy:

 

   

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, we announced a definitive agreement to acquire Torotel Inc. (“Torotel”).  Torotel is a leading designer and manufacturer of custom magnetics products primarily for the aerospace and defense industries and specializes in the custom design, manufacture and sale of a wide variety of precision magnetic components. Consummation of the transaction is dependent upon approval of holders of two-thirds of Torotel's outstanding shares. A special meeting of Torotel's shareholders to secure the necessary vote is scheduled for February 12, 2020, and we expect closing to occur shortly thereafter.  Torotel operates one facility in Kansas and one in Pennsylvania.

 

   

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, we acquired Ohio-based Genius Solutions Engineering Company (d/b/a GS Engineering), a provider of specialized “soft surface” skin texturized tooling, primarily serving the automotive end market. GS Engineering brings us critical proprietary technologies that offer significant advantages in creating tools for “soft surface” components which are used increasingly in vehicle interiors. The tooling for soft surface products offered by GS is highly complementary to our current industry-leading capabilities in texturing molds and tools used to create “hard surface” components. This technology also complements and enables us to improve our existing nickel shell technology that produces soft surface tooling. We currently are introducing the GS technology across our global production footprint which will enable customers worldwide to benefit from a combined offering for harmonized designs across a variety of surfaces and materials. GS operates one facility in Ohio and its results are reported within our Engraving segment.

 

 

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, consistent with our strategy to focus our financial assets and managerial resources on our higher growth and operating margin businesses, we completed the divestiture of our Cooking Solutions Group, which consisted of three operating segments, Associated American Industries, BKI, and Ultrafryer, along with a minority interest investment.  We completed the divestiture on March 31, 2019 and exchanged consideration for the sale on April 1 of 2019. In connection with the divestiture efforts, we also sold our minority interest in a European oven manufacturer back to the majority owners. Results of the Cooking Solutions Group in current and prior periods have been classified as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

 

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, we acquired New Hampshire-based Regional Mfg. Specialists, Inc. (now named Agile Magnetics, Inc.), a provider of high-reliability magnetics. The addition of Agile Magnetics represented an important step forward in building out the high reliability magnetics business of Standex Electronics. As a result of this combination, we have broadened our exposure to several high-growth end-markets and added a valuable manufacturing and sales base in the northeast. Additionally, we can now offer complementary products from Standex’s broader portfolio to Agile’s customer base. Agile Magnetics products include transformers, inductors and coils for mission critical applications for blue chip OEMs in the semiconductor, military, aerospace, healthcare, and industrial markets. It operates one manufacturing facility in New Hampshire.

 

 

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, we acquired Michigan-based Tenibac-Graphion, Inc. (Tenibac), a provider of chemical and laser texturing services. The combination of Tenibac and Standex Engraving expands services available to customers, increase responsiveness to customer demands, and drive innovative approaches to solving customer needs. The combined customer base now has access to the full line of mold and tool services, such as the Architexture design consultancy, Vycon™ part wrapping, chemical and laser engraving, tool finishing, and tool enhancements. Tenibac serves automotive, packaging, medical and consumer products customers, and operates three facilities, two in Michigan and one in China.

 

We create “Customer Intimacy” by utilizing the Standex Growth Disciplines to partner with our customers in order to develop and deliver custom solutions or engineered components. By partnering with our customers during long-term product development cycles, we become an extension of their development teams. Through this Partner, Solve, Deliver ® methodology, we are able to secure our position as a preferred long-term solution provider for our products and components. This strategy is designed to result in increased sales and operating margins that enhance shareholder returns.

 

Standex Operational Excellence drives continuous improvement in the efficiency of our businesses, both on the shop floor and in the office environment. We recognize that our businesses are competing in a global economy that requires us to improve our competitive position. We have deployed a number of management competencies to drive improvements in the cost structure of our business units including operational excellence through lean enterprise, the use of low cost manufacturing facilities in countries such as Mexico and China, the consolidation of manufacturing facilities to achieve economies of scale and leveraging of fixed infrastructure costs, alternate sourcing to achieve procurement cost reductions, and capital improvements to increase productivity.

 

The Company’s strong historical cash flow has been a cornerstone for funding our capital allocation strategy. We use cash flow generated from operations to fund the strategic growth programs described above, including acquisitions and investments for organic growth, investments in capital assets to improve productivity and lower costs and to return cash to our shareholders through payment of dividends and stock buybacks.

 

29

 

 

Restructuring expenses reflect costs associated with our efforts to continuously improve operational efficiency and expand globally in order to remain competitive in the end-user markets we serve. We incur costs for actions to size our businesses to a level appropriate for current economic conditions, improve our cost structure, enhance our competitive position and increase operating margins. Such expenses include costs for moving facilities to locations that allow for lower fixed and variable costs, starting up plants after relocation, downsizing operations because of changing economic conditions, and other costs resulting from asset redeployment decisions. Shutdown costs include severance, benefits, stay bonuses, lease and contract terminations, asset write-downs, costs of moving fixed assets, and moving and relocation costs. Vacant facility costs include maintenance, utilities, property taxes and other costs.

 

Because of the diversity of the Company’s businesses, end user markets and geographic locations, we do not use specific external indices to predict the future performance of the Company, other than general information about broad macroeconomic trends. Each of our individual business units serves niche markets and attempts to identify trends other than general business and economic conditions which are specific to its business and which could impact its performance. Those units report pertinent information to senior management, which uses it to the extent relevant to assess the future performance of the Company. A description of any such material trends is described below in the applicable segment analysis.

 

We monitor a number of key performance indicators (“KPIs”) including net sales, income from operations, backlog, effective income tax rate, gross profit margin, and operating cash flow. A discussion of these KPIs is included below. We may also supplement the discussion of these KPIs by identifying the impact of foreign exchange rates, acquisitions, and other significant items when they have a material impact on a specific KPI.

 

We believe the discussion of these items provides enhanced information to investors by disclosing their impact on the overall trend which provides a clearer comparative view of the KPI, as applicable. For discussion of the impact of foreign exchange rates on KPIs, the Company calculates the impact as the difference between the current period KPI calculated at the current period exchange rate as compared to the KPI calculated at the historical exchange rate for the prior period. For discussion of the impact of acquisitions, we isolate the effect on the KPI amount that would have existed regardless of our acquisition. Sales resulting from synergies between our acquisitions and existing operations of the Company are considered organic growth for the purposes of our discussion.

 

Unless otherwise noted, references to years are to fiscal years.

Net sales for the second quarter of 2020 declined $4.9 million, or 2.5%, when compared to the prior year period.  Organic sales decreased by $5.8 million, or 3.0%, with Engraving, Electronics, and Hydraulics organically declining in the quarter.  Acquisitions contributed 0.8% to the overall growth in the quarter, but were offset by negative foreign currency impacts of 0.4%.

 

Net sales in the six months ended December 31, 2019 decreased $1.6 million, or 0.4%, when compared to the prior year.  The decrease in net sales was driven by organic declines of $9.0 million, or 2.3%, incremental sales from acquisitions of $10.0 million, or 2.6%, and unfavorable currency of $2.6 million, or 0.7%.  We discuss our sales results and outlook for each segment below.

Gross Profit Margin

 

Our gross margin for the second quarter of 2020 was 34.9% compared to the prior year second quarter gross margin of 34.2%.  Gross margin expanded 70 basis points as compared to the prior year period due to sales mix within the Engineering Technologies segment along with productivity improvements driven by our Standex Operational Excellence initiatives, primarily within the Food Service Equipment Group, which more than offset gross profit declines associated with a 3% organic sales decline.

 

Our gross margin in the six months ended December 31, 2019 was 34.8%, essentially flat with the prior year period’s gross margin of 35.0%. 

 

Restructuring Charges

 

We incurred restructuring expenses of $0.7 million for the quarter and $2.2 million for the six-month period, primarily related to headcount reductions and facility rationalization within our Engraving segment.

 

We expect to incur additional restructuring costs of approximately $1.0 million throughout the remainder of fiscal year 2020.

 

Acquisition Related Expenses

 

We incurred acquisition-related expenses of $0.7 million for the second quarter and $0.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019, primarily for deferred compensation earned by the seller of our Horizon Scientific business, which we acquired in October 2016.  The Horizon seller achieved the all employment-based requirements during the second quarter of 2019 and all remaining amounts due.  We anticipate no further acquisition expenses related to the Horizon deferred compensation agreement.

  

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”) for the second quarter of 2020 were $47.1 million, or 24.7% of sales, compared to $45.7 million, or 23.4% of sales, during the prior year quarter.  SG&A expenses during the quarter were impacted by on-going SG&A expenses related to our recent acquisitions of $0.5 million along with increased employee benefit and compensation costs.

 

SG&A for the six months ended December 31, 2019 were $95.8 million, or 24.8% of sales, compared to $91.2 million, or 23.5% of sales, during the prior year quarter.  SG&A expenses were impacted by on-going SG&A expenses related to our recent acquisitions of $1.5 million along with increased employee benefit and compensation costs.

 

Income from Operations

 

Income from operations for the second quarter of 2020 was $17.8 million, compared to $20.2 million during the prior year quarter.  The decrease of $2.4 million, or 11.7%, is primarily due to lower organic sales volume, an increase in restructuring expense due to recent facility rationalization initiatives in Engraving, partially offset by gross margin increases.

 

Income from operations for the six months ended December 31, 2019 was $36.3 million, compared to $42.9 million during the prior year period.  The decrease of $6.6 million, or 15.3%, is primarily due to lower organic sales volume, higher input costs for certain raw materials, and a $1.6 million increase in restructuring expenses, partially offset by a $1.0 million gain upon receipt of insurance proceeds realized in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 from the June 2019 fire loss at our New Albany, Mississippi facility.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense for the second quarter of 2020 was $1.9 million, compared to $3.1 million during the prior year quarter.  The decrease is due to lower borrowings in addition to a decrease in our effective interest rate of 3.4% as of December 31, 2019, as compared to 3.7% as of December 31, 2018. Interest expense for the six months ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $4.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively. 

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company's effective tax rate from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2020 was 19.0% compared with 23.6% for the prior year quarter.  The effective tax rate in 2020 was lower due to a $0.8 million discrete tax benefit related toreceipt of formal approval by the tax authorities for application of a beneficial “high tech” tax rate for certain of our Chinese operations.

 

31

 

 

The Company's effective tax rate from continuing operations for the six months ended December 31, 2019 was 23.6% compared with 26.6% for the prior year period.  The effective tax rate for the year to date was lower due to the same discrete tax reform benefit in addition to a $1.3 million gain on non-taxable life insurance proceeds received in fiscal year 2020, and jurisdictional mix whereby less income was earned in higher rate jurisdictions in the first six months of fiscal year 2020 than in the prior year period.

 

The Company is currently under audit by the IRS for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2016 and 2017.

 

Backlog

 

Backlog includes all active or open orders for goods and services. Backlog also includes any future deliveries based on executed customer contracts, so long as such deliveries are based on agreed upon delivery schedules. Backlog is not generally a significant factor in the Company’s businesses because of our relatively short delivery periods and rapid inventory turnover with the exception of Engineering Technologies. Backlog orders are not necessarily an indicator of future sales levels because of variations in lead times and customer production demand pull systems. Customers may delay delivery of products or cancel orders prior to shipment, subject to possible cancellation penalties. Due to the nature of long-term agreements in the Engineering Technologies group, the timing of orders and delivery dates can vary considerably resulting in significant backlog changes from one period to another. In general, the majority of net realizable backlog beyond one year comes from the Engineering Technologies Group.

Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 decreased by $0.2 million or -0.6% when compared to the prior year quarter.  Organic sales declined by $1.4 million or -2.7% and foreign exchange was unfavorable by $0.5 million.  Sales in Europe and Americas were impacted by slower incoming workload due to customer timing of automotive projects.  We anticipate increased sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 as delayed projects are initiated by customers.  Organic sales declines were offset by the acquisition of GS Engineering, which increased our global offerings by providing new soft trim technology to customers and generated $1.6 million of sales for the second quarter fiscal year 2020.

 

Income from operations for the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 increased by $0.1 million, or 1.0%, when compared to the prior year quarter as the combination of cost improvements together with the restructuring actions announced in the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 overcame the impact of reduced sales volume during the quarter. 

 

Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2019, increased by $2.2 million, or 3.0% when compared to the prior year as the acquisitions of GS and Tenibac contributed $6.9 million or 9.3% to the increase.  Organic sales declined by -4.0% due to the timing of automotive projects, primarily in North America along with the closure of unprofitable sites as part of our previously announced restructuring.  Additionally, foreign exchange negatively impacted sales by $2.0 million for the year to date period.

 

32

 

 

Income for the six months ended December 31, 2019, decreased $0.9 million, or -6.6%, when compared to the prior year largely due to the impact of the sales declines, increased amortization expenses of $0.9 million as a result of our recent acquisitions, and negative foreign exchange rate impacts of $0.4 million which, collectively, more than offset productivity improvements and cost reduction activities in our facilities.  Looking forward, we expect year-over-year operating income improvement due to increased automotive model roll-outs, continued contribution from the GS Engineering acquisition and operating leverage associated with recent cost restructuring actions.

Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 decreased $6.9 million, or 13.0%, when compared to the prior year quarter.  Organic sales declined by $7.2 million or -13.6% as sales were lower in all major geographic markets, particularly Asia. Sales declines were experienced across most products lines but were partially offset by new sensor, switch and relay applications. The foreign currency impact increased sales by $0.3 million, or 0.6%.

 

Income from operations in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 decreased $2.6 million, or -25.1%, when compared to the prior year quarter.  The earnings decline was due to the margin loss on lower organic sales and significant inflationary cost increases, particularly among platinum group metals offset some by cost savings initiatives in all regions.  In the third quarter we expect sales volume to decrease year-over-year, but increase slightly from the second quarter as end markets improve slightly sequentially and distributor de-stocking is anticipated to slow.

 

Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2019, decreased $11.7 million, or -11.2%, when compared to the prior year to date period.  Organic sales growth was negative $14.3 million, or -13.8% for the first half when compared to the prior year. Sensor and reed switch volumes have experienced lower sales volume due to a slowdown in global economic conditions while magnetics levels remained steady to the prior year period.  Organic sales declines were partially offset by sales increases of $3.1 million, or 3.0%, due to the Agile Magnetics acquisition. Foreign currency changes decreased sales by $0.4 million, or -0.4%.

 

Income from operations for the six months ended December 31, 2019, decreased $7.3 million, or 31.5%, when compared to the prior year.  The decrease is due to the margin loss on lower organic sales, unfavorable currency impacts and inflationary cost increases partially offset by cost savings initiatives as well as the Agile acquisition earnings impact. We anticipate that we will continue to manage and accelerate cost reduction projects in order to partially offset commodity and labor cost inflation.

Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 increased by $2.9 million, or 12.4%, compared to the prior year quarter.  Sales distribution by market for the quarter was as follows: 43% aviation, 25% space, 15% energy, 11% defense, 5% medical and 1% other markets.  Sales in the aviation market were up $0.4 million compared to the prior year due to higher sales to engine suppliers on the LEAP and C-130 programs.  Defense sales increased by $1.3 million in the quarter due to higher sales in the Navy nuclear segment.

 

Income from operations in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 increased by $1.4 million, or 66.0%, when compared to the prior year quarter as a result of higher sales volume and efficiency improvements. 

 

Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2019, increased by $6.8 million, or 15.3%, when compared to the prior year period.  Aviation sales increased $1.7 million due to volume improvements in both the structures and the aircraft engine segments while total launch vehicle sales were up $2.2 million due to an increase in the manned space segment.  Current customer demand in the aviation segment along with the project-based backlog in the defense and space markets should support increased sales in the second half of the year.

Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 decreased $0.8 million, or -6.6%, when compared to the prior year quarter.  The decrease is due to a buildup of inventory at certain customers as well as a slowdown in the dump markets,  partially offset by increased sales to the refuse markets.  Sales of our pack eject cylinder for front end loading garbage trucks continues to receive market acceptance by OEMs.       

 

Income from operations in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 decreased $0.1 million, or -5.8%, when compared to the prior year quarter.  The operating income decrease was driven by the sales decline and was partially offset by lower manufacturing costs and improved cost management. 

 

Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2019, increased $0.4 million, or 1.7%, when compared to the prior year.  The increase is due to continued strong sales growth in the refuse markets partially offset by declines due to inventory buildup and a decline in sales in the dump markets.         

 

Income from operations for the six months ended December 31, 2019, increased $0.8 million, or 23.7%, when compared to the prior year.  The operating income increase was driven by top line growth and lower manufacturing costs which were partially offset by higher inventory reserves. Looking forward, we expect revenue and operating income to decrease in the third quarter reflecting customer de-stocking as well as the expiration of tariff relief for rod and telescopic cylinders during coming quarter.  We continue to focus efforts on growing our aftermarket presence and new business opportunity pipeline in order to partially offset these impacts.

Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 increased by $0.1 million, or 0.1%, when compared to the prior year. Sales growth reflected growth in our Pump business balanced against relatively flat demand in our Scientific and Refrigeration businesses as the Refrigeration group continued to re-stock inventory and fulfill sales after the warehouse fire in June.

 

Income from operations for the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 increased $1.6 million primarily related to direct and indirect labor reductions along with shop floor efficiencies yielded operating income improvements in the Refrigeration group together with favorable mix in our Scientific and Specialty Solutions businesses. 

 

Net sales for the first six months of fiscal year 2020 increased by $0.8 million or 0.6% as Scientific sales into retail pharmacy customers helped offset Refrigeration sales declines, especially during the first quarter, caused by the June 2019 warehouse fire at Refrigeration. 

 

Income from operations increased $3.3 million or 27.7% during the six months ended December 31, 2019 as a result of factory efficiencies in Refrigeration along with favorable mix in our Scientific and Specialty Solutions groups.  On a year-over-year basis, the Company expects that segment sales will increase slightly in the third fiscal quarter of 2020 driven by increased Scientific sales and expects improvement in operating income due to the impact of productivity improvements.

Corporate expenses increased by $2.2 million and $4.9 million on a quarter and year to date basis primarily due to increased stock-based compensation and benefit expenses in fiscal year 2020 along with management transition costs.

 

The restructuring and acquisition-related costs have been discussed above in the Company Overview.

 

During the first quarter of 2020, we received $9.0 million of insurance proceeds related to fire losses of finished goods and personal property as a result of the June 2019 fire which occurred at a leased Refrigertaion warehouse in New Albany, Mississippi.  As the lost property carried a book value that was below the insurance coverage for this property, we recorded a $1.0 million gain upon receipt of the proceeds and recorded this as a component of Other Operating Income. 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At December 31, 2019, our total cash balance was $98.9 million, of which $86.9 million was held by foreign subsidiaries.  During the first six months of fiscal year 2020, we repatriated $11.9 million to the United States from our foreign subsidiaries and we expect to repatriate $35.0 million during the entire fiscal year.  The repatriation of cash balances from certain of our subsidiaries could have adverse tax consequences or be subject to capital controls; however, those balances are generally available without legal restrictions to fund ordinary business operations. 

 

Net cash provided by continuing operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2019, was $21.4 million compared to $13.9 million in the prior year.  We generated $22.5 million from income statement activities and $2.4 million due to reduced working capital and other balance sheet decreases.  During the quarter, we made the final contingent consideration payment of $5.9 million due to the Horizon Scientific seller.   This payment was a component of operating activities as it was considered non-substantive as the obligation to make the payment was dependent solely on continued employment of the Seller.  Cash flow provided by continuing investing activities for quarter ended December 31, 2019 totaled $1.3 million and consisted of insurance proceeds related to the destruction of inventory in our leased Refrigeration facility and life insurance proceeds collected upon the death of a former executive offset by $10.0 million of capital expenditures.  Cash used by financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2019 were $16.3 million and included debt repayments of $10.8 million and cash paid for dividends of $5.2 million. 

 

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, we entered into a five-year Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“credit agreement”, or “facility”) with a borrowing limit of $500 million.  The facility can be increased by an amount of up to $250 million, in accordance with specified conditions contained in the agreement.  The facility also includes a $10 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $35 million sublimit for letters of credit. 

 

Under the terms of the Credit Facility, we pay a variable rate of interest and a commitment fee on borrowed amounts as well as a commitment fee on unused amounts under the facility.  The amount of the commitment fee depends upon both the undrawn amount remaining available under the facility and the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA (as defined in the agreement) ratio at the last day of each quarter.  As our funded debt to EBITDA ratio increases, the commitment fee increases. 

 

Funds borrowed under the facility may be used for the repayment of debt, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions (so long as certain conditions, including a specified funded debt to EBITDA leverage ratio is maintained), and other general corporate purposes.  As of December 31, 2019, the Company has used $7.6 million against the letter of credit sub-facility and had the ability to borrow $252.3 million under the facility based on our current trailing twelve-month EBITDA.  The facility contains customary representations, warranties and restrictive covenants, as well as specific financial covenants.  The Company’s current financial covenants under the facility are as follows:

 

35

 

 

Interest Coverage Ratio - The Company is required to maintain a ratio of Earnings Before Interest and Taxes, as Adjusted (“Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Facility”), to interest expense for the trailing twelve months of at least 2.75:1.  Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Facility specifically excludes extraordinary and certain other defined items such as cash restructuring and acquisition-related charges up to the lower of $20.0 million or 10% of EBITDA.  The facility also allows for unlimited non-cash charges including purchase accounting and goodwill adjustments.  At December 31, 2019, the Company’s Interest Coverage Ratio was 8.24:1.

 

Leverage Ratio - The Company’s ratio of funded debt to trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA per the Credit Facility, calculated as Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Facility plus depreciation and amortization, may not exceed 3.5:1.  Under certain circumstances in connection with a Material Acquisition (as defined in the Facility), the Facility allows for the leverage ratio to go as high as 4.0:1 for a four-fiscal quarter period.  At December 31, 2019, the Company’s Leverage Ratio was 1.22:1.

 

As of December 31, 2019, we had borrowings under our facility of $187.0 million net of issuance costs and the effective rate of interest for outstanding borrowings under the facility was 3.35%. 

 

Our primary cash requirements in addition to day-to-day operating needs include interest payments, capital expenditures, acquisitions, share repurchases, and dividends.  Our primary sources of cash for these requirements are cash flows from continuing operations and borrowings under the facility.  We expect fiscal year 2020 capital spending to be between $30.0 and $32.0 million which includes amounts not spent in fiscal year 2019.  We also expect that depreciation and amortization expense will be between $25.0 and $26.0 million and $8.5 and $9.5 million, respectively.

 

In order to manage our interest rate exposure, we are party to $75.0 million of active floating to fixed rate swaps.  These swaps convert our interest payments from LIBOR to a weighted average rate of 2.13%.

We sponsor a number of defined benefit and defined contribution retirement plans.  The U.S. pension plan is frozen for substantially all participants.  We have evaluated the current and long-term cash requirements of these plans, and our existing sources of liquidity are expected to be sufficient to cover required contributions under ERISA and other governing regulations.

 

The fair value of the Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plan assets was $192.2 million at December 31, 2019, as compared to $187.0 million at the most recent measurement date, which occurred as of June 30, 2019.  The next measurement date to determine plan assets and benefit obligations will be on June 30, 2020.

 

The Company expects to pay $5.3 million in contributions to its defined benefit plans during fiscal 2020.  Contributions of $1.7 million and $2.0 million were made during the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $0.3 million and $0.5 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively.  Required contributions of $4.3 million and $0.4 million will be paid to the Company’s U.S. and U.K. defined benefit plans respectively during 2020.  The Company also expects to make contributions during the current fiscal year of $0.2 million and $0.3 million to its unfunded defined benefit plans in the U.S. and Germany, respectively.  Any subsequent plan contributions will depend on the results of future actuarial valuations.

 

We have an insurance program in place to fund supplemental retirement income benefits for five retired executives.  Current executives and new hires are not eligible for this program.  At December 31, 2019, the underlying policies had a cash surrender value of $18.1 million and are reported net of loans of $8.7 million for which we have the legal right of offset, these amounts are reported net on our balance sheet.

 

Other Matters

 

Inflation – Certain of our expenses, such as wages and benefits, occupancy costs and equipment repair and replacement, are subject to normal inflationary pressures.  Inflation for medical costs can impact both our reserves for self-insured medical plans as well as our reserves for workers' compensation claims.  We monitor the inflationary rate and make adjustments to reserves whenever it is deemed necessary.  Our ability to manage medical costs inflation is dependent upon our ability to manage claims and purchase insurance coverage to limit the maximum exposure for us.  Each of our segments is subject to the effects of changing raw material costs caused by the underlying commodity price movements.  In general, we do not enter into purchase contracts that extend beyond one operating cycle.  While Standex considers our relationship with our suppliers to be good, there can be no assurances that we will not experience any supply shortage.

 

36

 

 

Foreign Currency Translation – Our primary functional currencies used by our non-U.S. subsidiaries are the Euro, British Pound Sterling (Pound), Mexican (Peso), Japanese (Yen), and Chinese (Yuan).

 

Environmental Matters – To the best of our knowledge, we believe that we are presently in substantial compliance with all existing applicable environmental laws and regulations and do not anticipate any instances of non-compliance that will have a material effect on our future capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.

 

Seasonality – We are a diversified business with generally low levels of seasonality, however our fiscal third quarter typically has a comparatively lower level of sales and profitability.

 

Employee Relations – The Company has labor agreements with four union locals in the United States and several European employees belong to European trade unions.  One expiring union contract was renegotiated during the second quarter ending December 31, 2019. There are no contracts set to expire during the remainder of fiscal year 2020.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Standex International Corporation and all of its subsidiaries.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.  Although we believe that materially different amounts would not be reported due to the accounting policies adopted, the application of certain accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.  Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019 lists a number of accounting policies which we believe to be the most critical.

 

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Risk Management

 

We are exposed to market risks from changes in interest rates, commodity prices and changes in foreign currency exchange. To reduce these risks, we selectively use, from time to time, financial instruments and other proactive management techniques. We have internal policies and procedures that place financial instruments under the direction of the Treasurer and restrict all derivative transactions to those intended for hedging purposes only. The use of financial instruments for trading purposes (except for certain investments in connection with the non-qualified defined contribution plan) or speculation is strictly prohibited. The Company has no majority-owned subsidiaries that are excluded from the consolidated financial statements. Further, we have no interests in or relationships with any special purpose entities.

 

Exchange Rate Risk

 

We are exposed to both transactional risk and translation risk associated with exchange rates. Our overall transactional risk is mitigated, in large part, by natural hedges developed with locally denominated debt service on intercompany accounts. In the six months ended December 31, 2019, net sales to external customers in our consolidated sales not transacted in functional currency were 2.8%. We also mitigate certain of our foreign currency exchange rate risks by entering into forward foreign currency contracts from time to time. The contracts are used as a hedge against anticipated foreign cash flows, such as dividend payments, loan payments, and materials purchases, and are not used for trading or speculative purposes. The fair values of the forward foreign currency exchange contracts are sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, as an adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates from market rates would decrease the fair value of the contracts. However, any such losses or gains would generally be offset by corresponding gains and losses, respectively, on the related hedged asset or liability. At December 31, 2019 the fair value, in the aggregate, of the Company’s open foreign exchange contracts was a liability of $3.1 million.

 

Our primary translation risk is with the Euro, British Pound Sterling, Peso, Japanese Yen and Chinese Yuan. A hypothetical 10% appreciation or depreciation of the value of any these foreign currencies to the U.S. Dollar at December 31, 2019, would not result in a material change in our operations, financial position, or cash flows. We hedge our most significant foreign currency translation risks primarily through cross currency swaps and other instruments, as appropriate.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

Our interest rate exposure is limited primarily to interest rate changes on our variable rate borrowings. From time to time, we will use interest rate swap agreements to modify our exposure to interest rate movements. The Company’s currently effective swap agreements convert our base borrowing rate on $75.0 million of debt due under our Credit Agreement from a variable rate equal to LIBOR to a weighted average rate of 2.13% at December 31, 2019.

 

37

 

 

The Company’s effective rate on variable-rate borrowings, including the impact of interest rate swaps, under the revolving credit agreement decreased from 3.88% at June 30, 2019 to 3.35% at December 31, 2019.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

We have a diversified customer base. As such, the risk associated with concentration of credit risk is inherently minimized. As of December 31, 2019, no one customer accounted for more than 5% of our consolidated outstanding receivables or of our sales.

 

Commodity Prices

 

The Company is exposed to fluctuating market prices for all commodities used in its manufacturing processes. Each of our segments is subject to the effects of changing raw material costs caused by the underlying commodity price movements and the impact that any tariffs may have on such commodities. In general, we do not enter into purchase contracts that extend beyond one operating cycle. While Standex considers our relationship with our suppliers to be good, there can be no assurances that we will not experience any supply shortage.

 

The Engineering Technologies, Food Service Equipment, Electronics, and Hydraulics Groups are all sensitive to price increases for steel products, other metal commodities and petroleum based products. In the past year, we have experienced price fluctuations for a number of materials including steel, copper wire, other metal commodities, refrigeration components and foam insulation. These materials are some of the key elements in the products manufactured in these segments. Wherever possible, we will implement price increases to offset the impact of changing prices. The ultimate acceptance of these price increases, if implemented, will be impacted by our affected divisions’ respective competitors and the timing of their price increases.

 

 

ITEM 4.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

At the end of the period covered by this Report, the management of the Company, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2019 in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

SEC guidance permits the exclusion of an evaluation of the effectiveness of a registrant's disclosure controls and procedures as they relate to the internal control over financial reporting for an acquired business during the first year following such acquisition. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements contained in this Report, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of GS Engineering during the last year. These acquisition represent approximately 0.9% and 1.0% of the Company's consolidated continuing operations revenue for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019, respectively, and approximately 1.4% of the Company's consolidated assets at December 31, 2019. Management's evaluation and conclusion as to the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2019 excludes any evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of GS Engineering.

 

There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period ended December 31, 2019 that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
