Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2023

(Unaudited)

1.    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. AMETEK, Inc. (the “Company”) believes that all adjustments (which primarily consist of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of the Company at March 31, 2023, the consolidated results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 have been included. Quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

2.    Revenues

The outstanding contract asset and liability accounts were as follows:

	2023		2022
	(In thousands)
Contract assets—January 1	$	119,741	$	95,274
Contract assets – March 31	127,412		102,703
Change in contract assets – increase (decrease)	7,671		7,429
Contract liabilities – January 1	398,692		328,816
Contract liabilities – March 31	432,695		351,053
Change in contract liabilities – (increase) decrease	(34,003)		(22,237)
Net change	$	(26,332)	$	(14,808)

The net change for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by contract liabilities, specifically growth in advance payments from customers. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized revenue of $199.3 million and $181.6 million, respectively, that was previously included in the beginning balance of contract liabilities.

Contract assets are reported as a component of Other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $54.8 million and $41.0 million of Customer advanced payments (contract liabilities), respectively, were recorded in Other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

The remaining performance obligations not expected to be completed within one year as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $570.4 million and $526.0 million, respectively. Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of firm, non-cancelable orders, with expected delivery dates to customers greater than one year from the balance sheet date, for which the performance obligation is unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied. These performance obligations will be substantially satisfied within two to three years.

Product Warranties

The Company provides limited warranties in connection with the sale of its products. The warranty periods for products sold vary among the Company’s operations, but the majority do not exceed one year. The Company calculates its warranty expense provision based on its historical warranty experience and adjustments are made periodically to reflect actual warranty expenses. Product warranty obligations are reported as a component of Accrued liabilities and other in the consolidated balance sheet.

Changes in the accrued product warranty obligation were as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
	(In thousands)
Balance at the beginning of the period	$	26,487	$	27,478

Balance at the end of the period	$	26,807	$	27,042

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains allowances for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to meet their financial obligations to the Company. The Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses, on all accounts receivable and contract assets, which considers risk of future credit losses based on factors such as historical experience, contract terms, as well as general and market business conditions, country, and political risk. Balances are written off when determined to be uncollectible.

AMETEK, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2023

(Unaudited)

At March 31, 2023, the Company had $901.5 million of accounts receivable, net of allowances of $13.3 million. Changes in the allowance were not material for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

3.    Earnings Per Share

The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares considered outstanding during the periods. The calculation of diluted earnings per share reflects the effect of all potentially dilutive securities (principally outstanding stock options and restricted stock grants). The number of weighted average shares used in the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share was as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023	2022
	(In thousands)
Weighted average shares:
Basic shares	230,126	231,481
Equity-based compensation plans	1,103	1,584
Diluted shares	231,229	233,065

4.    Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

The Company utilizes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to the valuations used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table provides the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, consistent with the fair value hierarchy, at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

	March 31, 2023
	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
	(In thousands)
Mutual fund investments	$	10,374	$	10,374	$	—	$	—
Foreign currency forward contracts	16		—		16		—

	December 31, 2022
	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
	(In thousands)
Mutual fund investments	$	9,856	$	9,856	$	—	$	—
Foreign currency forward contracts	3,032		—		3,032		—

The fair value of mutual fund investments is based on quoted market prices. The mutual fund investments are shown as a component of investments and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, gains and losses on the investments noted above were not significant. No transfers between level 1 and level 2 investments occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Foreign Currency

At March 31, 2023, the Company had a Euro forward contract for a total notional value of 40.0 million Euros and a Canadian dollar forward contract for a notional value of 46.2 million Canadian dollars. Foreign currency forward contracts are valued as level 2 assets as they are corroborated by foreign currency exchange rates and shown as a component of other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, realized and unrealized gains and losses on the foreign currency forward contracts were not significant.

Financial Instruments

Cash, cash equivalents and mutual fund investments are recorded at fair value at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

The following table provides the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instrument liabilities, for which fair value is measured for disclosure purposes only, compared to the recorded amounts at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

	March 31, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Recorded Amount		Fair Value		Recorded Amount		Fair Value
	(In thousands)
Long-term debt (including current portion)	$	(2,178,443)	$	(2,049,278)	$	(2,161,643)	$	(2,010,867)

The fair value of net short-term borrowings approximates the carrying value. The Company’s net long-term debt is all privately held with no public market for this debt, therefore, the fair value of net long-term debt was computed based on comparable current market data for similar debt instruments and is considered a level 3 liability.

5.    Hedging Activities

The Company has designated certain foreign-currency-denominated long-term borrowings as hedges of the net investment in certain foreign operations. As of March 31, 2023, these net investment hedges included British-pound-and Euro-denominated long-term debt. These borrowings were designed to create net investment hedges in certain designated foreign subsidiaries. The Company designated the British-pound- and Euro-denominated loans as hedging instruments to offset translation gains or losses on the net investment due to changes in the British pound and Euro exchange rates. These net investment hedges are evidenced by management’s contemporaneous documentation supporting the hedge designation. Any gain or loss on the hedging instruments (the debt) following hedge designation is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income in the same manner as the translation adjustment on the hedged investment based on changes in the spot rate, which is used to measure hedge effectiveness.

At March 31, 2023, the Company had $253.5 million of British-pound-denominated loans, which were designated as a hedge against the net investment in British pound functional currency foreign subsidiaries. At March 31, 2023, the Company had $581.7 million in Euro-denominated loans, which were designated as a hedge against the net investment in Euro functional currency foreign subsidiaries. As a result of the British-pound- and Euro-denominated loans designated and 100% effective as net investment hedges, $15.5 million of pre-tax currency remeasurement losses have been included in the foreign currency translation component of other comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

8.    Acquisitions

Acquisitions

The Company spent $99.3 million in cash, net of cash acquired, to acquire Bison Gear & Engineering Corp. ("Bison") in March 2023. Bison is a leading manufacturer of highly engineered motion control solutions serving diverse markets and applications. Bison is part of EMG.

The following table represents the allocation of the purchase price for the net assets of the Bison acquisition based on the estimated fair values at acquisition (in millions):

Property, plant and equipment	$	11.2
Goodwill	22.4
Other intangible assets	52.8
Net working capital and other(1)	12.9
Total cash paid	$	99.3

________________

(1)Includes $9.8 million in accounts receivable, whose fair value, contractual cash flows and expected cash flows are approximately equal.

The amount allocated to goodwill is reflective of the benefits the Company expects to realize from the Bison acquisition. Bison's engineering expertise and broad product portfolio complement the Company's existing motion control and automation solutions business. The Company expects approximately $22.4 million of the goodwill relating to the Bison acquisition will be tax deductible in future years.

At March 31, 2023, the purchase price allocated to other intangible assets of $52.8 million consists of $8.8 million of indefinite-lived intangible trade names, which are not subject to amortization. The remaining $44.0 million of other intangible assets consists of $33.0 million of customer relationships, which are being amortized over a period of 17 years, and $11.0 million of purchased technology, which is being amortized over a period of 17 years. Amortization expense for each of the next five years for the 2023 acquisition is expected to approximate $3 million per year.

The Company finalized its measurements of certain tangible and intangible assets and liabilities for its September 2022 acquisition of Navitar, Inc., which had no material impact to the consolidated statement of income and balance sheet. The Company has substantially completed its purchase accounting, however it is in the process of finalizing the measurement of certain intangible and tangible assets and liabilities, as well as accounting for income taxes, for its October 2022 acquisition of RTDS Technologies.

The Bison acquisition had an immaterial impact on reported net sales, net income, and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Had the acquisition been made at the beginning of 2023 or 2022, pro forma net sales, net income, and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, would not have been materially different than the amounts reported.

9.    Goodwill

The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill by segment were as follows:

	EIG		EMG		Total
	(In millions)
Balance at December 31, 2022	$	4,236.1	$	1,136.5	$	5,372.6
Goodwill acquired from 2023 acquisitions	—		22.4		22.4
Purchase price allocation adjustments and other	22.9		—		22.9
Foreign currency translation adjustments	6.3		6.3		12.6
Balance at March 31, 2023	$	4,265.3	$	1,165.2	$	5,430.5

10.    Income Taxes

At March 31, 2023, the Company had gross uncertain tax benefits of $183.1 million, of which $134.7 million, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate.

The following is a reconciliation of the liability for uncertain tax positions (in millions):

Balance at December 31, 2022	$	174.7
Additions for tax positions	8.4
Reductions for tax positions	—
Balance at March 31, 2023	$	183.1

The additions above primarily reflect the tax positions for foreign tax planning initiatives. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. The amounts recognized in income tax expense for interest and penalties during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were not significant.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 19.5%, compared with 19.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The higher effective tax rate in 2023 is primarily due to an increase in the foreign rate differential which reflects a greater proportion of earnings in higher tax jurisdictions.

11.    Share-Based Compensation

The Company's share-based compensation plans are described in Note 11, Share-Based Compensation, to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8, filed on the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Share Based Compensation Expense

Total share-based compensation expense was as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
	(In thousands)
Stock option expense	$	3,584	$	3,440
Restricted stock expense	5,040		4,778
Performance restricted stock unit expense	1,655		1,353
Total pre-tax expense	$	10,279	$	9,571

Pre-tax share-based compensation expense is included in the consolidated statement of income in either Cost of sales or Selling, general and administrative expenses, depending on where the recipient’s cash compensation is reported.

The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $15.1 million. The total fair value of stock options vested during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $12.6 million. As of March 31, 2023, there was approximately $29.5 million of expected future pre-tax compensation expense related to the 1.0 million non-vested stock options outstanding, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately two years.

Restricted Stock

The following is a summary of the Company’s non-vested restricted stock activity and related information:

million non-vested restricted shares outstanding, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately two years.

Performance Restricted Stock Units

In March 2023, the Company granted performance restricted stock units ("PRSU") to officers and certain key management-level employees. The PRSUs vest over a period up to three years from the grant date based on continuous service, with the number of shares earned (0% to 200% of the target award) depending upon the extent to which the Company achieves certain financial and market performance targets measured over the period from January 1 of the year of grant to December 31 of the third year. Half of the PRSUs were valued in a manner similar to restricted stock as the financial targets are based on the Company’s operating results, which represents a performance condition. The grant date fair value of these PRSUs are recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period based on the probable number of awards to vest at each reporting date.

The other half of the PRSUs were valued using a Monte Carlo model as the performance target is related to the Company’s total shareholder return compared to a group of peer companies, which represents a market condition. The Company recognizes the grant date fair value of these awards as compensation expense ratably over the vesting period.

The following is a summary of the Company’s non-vested performance restricted stock activity and related information:

	Shares	Weighted Average  Grant Date Fair Value
	(In thousands)
Non-vested performance restricted stock outstanding at December 31, 2022	275	$	101.98

13.    Contingencies

Asbestos Litigation

The Company (including its subsidiaries) has been named as a defendant in a number of asbestos-related lawsuits. Certain of these lawsuits relate to a business which was acquired by the Company and do not involve products which were manufactured or sold by the Company. In connection with these lawsuits, the seller of such business has agreed to indemnify the Company against these claims (the “Indemnified Claims”). The Indemnified Claims have been tendered to, and are being defended by, such seller. The seller has met its obligations, in all respects, and the Company does not have any reason to believe such party would fail to fulfill its obligations in the future. To date, no judgments have been rendered against the Company as a result of any asbestos-related lawsuit. The Company believes that it has good and valid defenses to each of these claims and intends to defend them vigorously.

Environmental Matters

Certain historic processes in the manufacture of products have resulted in environmentally hazardous waste by-products as defined by federal and state laws and regulations. At March 31, 2023, the Company is named a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) at 13 non-AMETEK-owned former waste disposal or treatment sites (the “non-owned” sites). The Company is identified as a “de minimis” party in 12 of these sites based on the low volume of waste attributed to the Company relative to the amounts attributed to other named PRPs. In eight of these sites, the Company has reached a tentative agreement on the cost of the de minimis settlement to satisfy its obligation and is awaiting executed agreements. The tentatively agreed-to settlement amounts are fully reserved. In the other four sites, the Company is continuing to investigate the accuracy of the alleged volume attributed to the Company as estimated by the parties primarily responsible for remedial activity at the sites to establish an appropriate settlement amount. At the remaining site where the Company is a non-de minimis PRP, the Company is participating in the investigation and/or related required remediation as part of a PRP Group and reserves have been established to satisfy the Company’s expected obligations. The Company historically has resolved these issues within established reserve levels and reasonably expects this result will continue. In addition to these non-owned sites, the Company has an ongoing practice of providing reserves for probable remediation activities at certain of its current or previously owned manufacturing locations (the “owned” sites). For claims and proceedings against the Company with respect to other environmental matters, reserves are established once the Company has determined that a loss is probable and estimable. This estimate is refined as the Company moves through the various stages of investigation, risk assessment, feasibility study and corrective action processes. In certain instances, the Company has developed a range of estimates for such costs and has recorded a liability based on the best estimate. It is reasonably possible that the actual cost of remediation of the individual sites could vary from the current estimates and the amounts accrued in the consolidated financial statements; however, the amounts of such variances are not expected to result in a material change to the consolidated financial statements. In estimating the Company’s liability for remediation, the Company also considers the likely proportionate share of the anticipated remediation expense and the ability of the other PRPs to fulfill their obligations.

Total environmental reserves at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $41.1 million, for both non-owned and owned sites. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $2.2 million in reserves. Additionally, the Company spent $2.2 million on environmental matters for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The Company has agreements with other former owners of certain of its acquired businesses, as well as new owners of previously owned businesses. Under certain of the agreements, the former or new owners retained, or assumed and agreed to indemnify the Company against, certain environmental and other liabilities under certain circumstances. The Company and some of these other parties also carry insurance coverage for some environmental matters.

The Company believes it has established reserves for the environmental matters described above, which are sufficient to perform all known responsibilities under existing claims and consent orders. In the opinion of management, based on presently available information and the Company’s historical experience related to such matters, an adequate provision for probable costs has been made and the ultimate cost resulting from these actions is not expected to materially affect the consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth net sales and income by reportable segment and on a consolidated basis:

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Other (expense) income, net	(5,373)		2,552
Consolidated income before income taxes	$	379,599	$	336,222

For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company posted record backlog, operating income, operating margins, and operating cash flow, as well as strong orders, sales, net income, and diluted earnings per share. We achieved these results from organic sales growth in both EIG and EMG, contributions from the acquisitions of Navitar in September 2022 and RTDS in October 2022, as well as our Operational Excellence initiatives. During 2022 and into 2023, we continue to experience heightened levels of inflation in material costs, supply chain constraints, as well as continued uncertainty in the global economy. We expect material cost inflation to remain elevated throughout 2023, but anticipate pricing actions to mitigate this inflationary pressure. In response to supply chain pressures, we have taken actions to build inventory and seek alternative sources of supply to support sales and backlog growth. We continue to evaluate the extent to which these factors will impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations and will take additional actions as necessary throughout 2023 to mitigate this inflationary pressure. For 2023, our record backlog, the full year impact of the 2022 acquisitions, the 2023 acquisition of Bison Gear & Engineering Corp., and continued focus on and implementation of our Operational Excellence initiatives are expected to have a positive impact on the remainder of our 2023 results.

Results of operations for the first quarter of 2023 compared with the first quarter of 2022

Net sales for the first quarter of 2023 were $1,597.1 million, an increase of $138.6 million or 9.5%, compared with net sales of $1,458.5 million for the first quarter of 2022. The increase in net sales for the first quarter of 2023 was due to a 9% increase in organic sales and a 2% increase from acquisitions, partially offset by an unfavorable 2% effect of foreign currency translation.

Total international sales for the first quarter of 2023 were $788.1 million or 49.3% of net sales, an increase of $43.7 million or 5.9%, compared with international sales of $744.4 million or 51.0% of net sales for the first quarter of 2022. The increase in international sales was primarily driven by strong demand in Europe and Asia during the quarter as well as contributions from the 2022 acquisitions.

Orders for the first quarter of 2023 were $1,812.1 million, a increase of $109.3 million or 6.4%, compared with $1,702.8 million for the first quarter of 2022. The increase in orders for the first quarter of 2023 was due to a 1% increase in organic orders and a 5% increase from acquisitions. As a result, the Company's backlog of unfilled orders at March 31, 2023 was a record $3,433.6 million, an increase of $215.0 million or 6.7% compared with $3,218.6 million at December 31, 2022.

Segment operating income for the first quarter of 2023 was $430.3 million, an increase of $57.3 million or 15.4%, compared with segment operating income of $373.0 million for the first quarter of 2022. Segment operating margins, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 26.9% for the first quarter of 2023, compared with 25.6% for the first quarter of 2022.

20

Segment operating income and operating margins were positively impacted in 2023 by the increase in sales discussed above. In the first quarter of 2022, segment operating income included a $7.1 million gain on the sale of a facility which increased operating margins 50 basis points.

Cost of sales for the first quarter of 2023 was $1,022.5 million or 64.0% of net sales, an increase of $73.7 million or 7.8%, compared with $948.8 million or 65.1% of net sales for the first quarter of 2022. The cost of sales increase was primarily due to the net sales increase discussed above.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2023 were $169.1 million or 10.6% of net sales, an increase of $12.6 million or 8.1%, compared with $156.5 million or 10.7% of net sales for the first quarter of 2022. The selling expenses increase is primarily due to the net sales increase discussed above. General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2023 were $24.7 million, compared with $19.7 million for the first quarter of 2022. The general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2023 include higher employee compensation expense compared to the first quarter of 2022.

Consolidated operating income was a record $405.5 million or a record 25.4% of net sales for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $52.3 million or 14.8%, compared with $353.2 million or 24.2% of net sales for the first quarter of 2022.

Other expense, net was $5.4 million for the first quarter of 2023, compared with $2.6 million of other income, net for the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $7.9 million. The first quarter of 2023 includes lower pension income compared to the first quarter of 2022.

The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2023 was 19.5%, compared with 19.0% for the first quarter of 2022. The higher effective tax rate in 2023 is primarily due to an increase in the foreign rate differential which reflects a greater proportion of earnings in higher tax jurisdictions.

Net income for the first quarter of 2023 was $305.7 million, an increase of $33.3 million or 12.2%, compared with $272.4 million for the first quarter of 2022.

Diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2023 were $1.32, an increase of $0.15 or 12.8%, compared with $1.17 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2022.

Segment Results

EIG’s net sales totaled $1,117.2 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $129.4 million or 13.1%, compared with $987.8 million for the first quarter of 2022. The net sales increase was due to an 11% increase in organic sales and a 3% increase from acquisitions, partially offset by an unfavorable 1% effect of foreign currency translation.

EIG’s operating income was a record $309.7 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $64.9 million or 26.5%, compared with $244.8 million for the first quarter of 2022. EIG’s operating margins were 27.7% of net sales for the first quarter of 2023, compared with 24.8% for the first quarter of 2022, due to continued benefits from the Company's Operational Excellence initiatives.

EMG’s net sales totaled $479.9 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $9.1 million or 1.9%, compared with $470.8 million for the first quarter of 2022. The net sales increase was due to a 4% organic sales increase, partially offset by an unfavorable 2% effect of foreign currency translation.

EMG’s operating income was $120.5 million for the first quarter of 2023, a decrease of $7.7 million or 6.0%, compared with $128.2 million for the first quarter of 2022. EMG’s operating margins were 25.1% of net sales for the first quarter of 2023, compared with 27.2% for the first quarter of 2022. EMG's operating margins in the first quarter of 2023 were negatively impacted by the dilutive impact of the 2023 acquisition. In the first quarter of 2022, EMG operating income and margins included a $7.1 million gain on the sale of a facility, which increased EMG operating margins by 150 basis points. Excluding the dilutive impact of the 2023 acquisition and the gain on the sale of a facility, EMG margins increased 60 basis points compared with the first quarter of 2022.

Financial Condition

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities totaled a record $386.5 million for the first three months of 2023, an increase of $185.2 million or 92.0%, compared with $201.3 million for the first three months of 2022. The increase in cash provided by operating activities for the first three months of 2023 was primarily due to improved working capital management and higher net income.

Free cash flow (cash flow provided by operating activities less capital expenditures) was a record $366.5 million for the first three months of 2023, compared with $175.0 million for the first three months of 2022. EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) was $481.7 million for the first three months of 2023, compared with $433.6 million for the first three months of 2022. Free cash flow and EBITDA are presented because the Company is aware that they are measures used by third parties in evaluating the Company.

Cash used by investing activities totaled $122.2 million for the first three months of 2023, compared with cash used by investing activities of $14.9 million for the first three months of 2022. For the first three months of 2023, the Company paid $99.3 million, net of cash acquired, to purchase Bison Gear & Engineering Corp.
