Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by RBC Bearings Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The April 2, 2016 fiscal year end balance sheet data have been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The interim financial statements included with this report have been prepared on a consistent basis with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2016.

These statements reflect all adjustments, accruals and estimates consisting only of items of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The results of operations for the three month period ended October 1, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the entire fiscal year ending April 1, 2017. The three month periods ended October 1, 2016 and September 26, 2015 each include 13 weeks. The amounts shown are in thousands, unless otherwise indicated.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition. In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin 104,” we recognize revenues principally from the sale of products at the point of passage of title, which is at the time of shipment, except for certain customers for which it occurs when the products reach their destination.

We also recognize revenue on a Ship-In-Place basis for two customers who have required that we hold the product after final production is complete.  In this case, a written agreement has been executed (at the customer’s request) whereby the customer accepts the risk of loss for product that is invoiced under the Ship-In-Place arrangement.  For each transaction for which revenue is recognized under a Ship-In-Place arrangement, all final manufacturing inspections have been completed and customer acceptance has been obtained. In the three months ended October 1, 2016, 2.3% of the Company’s total net sales was recognized under Ship-In-Place transactions.

Adoption of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards update (“ASU") No. 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. This ASU includes provisions intended to simplify various aspects related to how share-based payments are accounted for and presented in the financial statements. This ASU is effective for public companies for the financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company has not determined the effect that the adoption of the pronouncement may have on its financial position and/or results of operations.

7

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)”, which amends the principal-versus-agent implementation guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 (Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, issued by the FASB in May 2014. ASU No. 2016-08 clarifies the principal-versus-agent guidance in Topic 606 and requires an entity to determine whether the nature of its promise to provide goods or services to a customer is performed in a principal or agent capacity and to recognize revenue in a gross or net manner based on its principal/agent designation. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. This update requires the Company to recognize revenue at amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services at the time of transfer. In doing so, the Company will need to use more judgement and make more estimates than under today’s guidance, such estimates include identifying performance obligations in the contracts, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. The Company can either apply a full retrospective adoption or a modified retrospective adoption. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods therein. The Company has not determined the effect that the adoption of the pronouncement may have on its financial position and/or results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02: “Leases.” The core principal of ASU 2016-02 is that an entity should recognize on its balance sheet assets and liabilities arising from a lease. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as a finance or operating lease. This new accounting guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 under a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, (Topic 740): "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes". The FASB issued this ASU as part of its simplification initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. This ASU eliminates the current requirement that requires an organization to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, organizations with a classified balance sheet are now required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent assets or noncurrent liabilities. This ASU is effective for public companies for the financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company elected to early adopt this guidance prospectively during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments.” This ASU allows an acquirer in a business combination to account for measurement-period adjustments during the period in which it determines the amount of the adjustment. An acquirer would also need to capture in the current period any effect on earnings it would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this update effective with their interim period beginning June 28, 2015.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This update requires the company to measure inventory using the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This ASU applies to companies measuring inventory using methods other than the last-in, first-out (LIFO) and retail inventory methods, including but not limited to the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average costing methods. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-04, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits: Practical Expedient for the Measurement Date of an Employer’s Defined Benefit Obligation and Plan Assets.” This ASU permits an entity with a fiscal year-end that does not coincide with a month-end, to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the month end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal year-end and apply that consistently from year to year. The practical expedient requires if a contribution or significant event occurs between the month-end date used to measure the defined benefit plan assets and an entity’s fiscal year end, the entity should adjust the measurement of the defined benefit plan assets and obligations to reflect the effects of those contributions and other significant events. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has elected to adopt this guidance for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2016. The respective assets and liabilities associated with the defined benefit plans have been valued as of March 31, 2016, with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

8

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This ASU requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is allowed. The Company adopted this pronouncement in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Other than a different presentation within the balance sheet, the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, “Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items.” This update eliminates the concept of extraordinary items and removes the requirements to separately present extraordinary events. This ASU also requires additional disclosures for items that are both unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern.” This update requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and requires related footnote disclosures. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

1. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The components of comprehensive income (loss) that relate to the Company are net income, foreign currency translation adjustments and pension plan and postretirement benefits, all of which are presented in the consolidated statements of stockholders' equity and comprehensive income (loss).

The following summarizes the activity within each component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss):

	Currency Translation			Pension and Postretirement Liability			Total
Balance at April 2, 2016	$	222		$	(7,212	)	$	(6,990	)
Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications (net of taxes)		(1,805	)		—			(1,805	)
Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)		—			467			467
Net current period other comprehensive income (loss)		(1,805	)		467			(1,338	)
Balance at October 1, 2016	$	(1,583	)	$	(6,745	)	$	(8,328	)

2. Net Income Per Common Share

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

Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding using the treasury stock method. Common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options.

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

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	October 1, 2016		September 26, 2015		October 1, 2016		September 26, 2015
Net income	$	18,228	$	14,519	$	36,268	$	27,923
Denominator for basic net income  per common share—weighted-average shares outstanding		23,470,650		23,210,640		23,395,614		23,186,600
Effect of dilution due to employee stock awards		242,067		284,645		274,386		329,937
Denominator for diluted net income per common share — weighted-average shares outstanding		23,712,717		23,495,285		23,670,000		23,516,537
Basic net income per common share	$	0.78	$	0.63	$	1.55	$	1.20
Diluted net income per common share	$	0.77	$	0.62	$	1.53	$	1.19

At October 1, 2016, 400,750 employee stock options have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. At September 26, 2015, 408,000 employee stock options and 73,850 restricted shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The inclusion of these employee stock options and unvested restricted shares would be anti-dilutive.

3. Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Short-term investments, if any, are comprised of equity securities and are measured at fair value by using quoted prices in active markets and are classified as Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.

4. Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the first-in, first-out method, and are summarized below:

	October 1, 2016		April 2, 2016
Raw materials	$	37,393	$	36,632
Work in process		76,402		73,761

The Credit Facility

In connection with the Sargent Aerospace & Defense (“Sargent”) acquisition on April 24, 2015, the Company entered into the credit agreement and related Guarantee, Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer and the other lenders party thereto and terminated the JP Morgan Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides RBCA, as Borrower, with (a) a $200,000 Term Loan and (b) a $350,000 Revolver and together with the Term Loan ( the “Facilities”).

Amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bear interest at (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1% and (3) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1% or (b) LIBOR rate plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin is based on the Company's consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA from time to time. Currently, the Company's margin is 0.5% for base rate loans and 1.5% for LIBOR rate loans. As of October 1, 2016, there was $140,000 outstanding under the Revolver and $187,500 outstanding under the Term Loan, offset by $5,104 in debt issuance costs (original amount was $7,122).

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including among other things, financial covenants to maintain the following: (1) a ratio of consolidated net debt to adjusted EBITDA, not to exceed 3.50 to 1; and (2) a consolidated interest coverage ratio not to exceed 2.75 to 1. The Credit Agreement allows the Company to, among other things, make distributions to shareholders, repurchase its stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that the Company complies with certain requirements and limitations of the agreement. As of October 1 2016, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants.

The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured as well as providing for a pledge of substantially all of the Company’s and RBCA’s assets. The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have also entered into a Guarantee to guarantee RBCA’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.

Approximately $3,690 of the Revolver is being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure RBCA’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs. As of October 1, 2016, RBCA has the ability to borrow up to an additional $206,310 under the Revolver.

Other Notes Payable

On October 1, 2012, Schaublin purchased the land and building, which it occupied and had been leasing, for 14,067 CHF (approximately $14,910). Schaublin obtained a 20 year fixed rate mortgage of 9,300 CHF (approximately $9,857) at an interest rate of 2.9%. The balance of the purchase price of 4,767 CHF (approximately $5,053) was paid from cash on hand. The balance on this mortgage as of October 1, 2016 was 7,440 CHF, or $7,663.

7. Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state or foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities for years ending before April 2, 2005. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years ending before March 29, 2014. A U.S. federal corporate income tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2013 was deemed effectively settled in the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2016.

The effective income tax rates for the three month periods ended October 1, 2016 and September 26, 2015, were 32.9% and 33.8%. In addition to discrete items, the effective income tax rates for these periods are different from the U.S. statutory rates due to a special U.S. manufacturing deduction, the U.S. credit for increasing research activities, and foreign income taxed at lower rates which decrease the rate, and state income taxes which increases the rate.

The effective income tax rate for the three month period ended October 1, 2016 of 32.9% includes immaterial discrete items of $33. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three month period ended October 1, 2016 would have been 32.7%. The effective income tax rate for the three month period ended September 26, 2015 of 33.8% includes immaterial discrete items of $51. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three month period ended September 26, 2015 would have been 33.5%. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that some of its unrecognized tax positions may be effectively settled within the next twelve months due to the closing of audits and the statute of limitations expiring in varying jurisdictions. The decrease, pertaining primarily to credits and state tax, is estimated to be approximately $942.

8. Reportable Segments

The Company operates through operating segments for which separate financial information is available, and for which operating results are evaluated regularly by the Company's chief operating decision maker in determining resource allocation and assessing performance. Those operating segments with similar economic characteristics and that meet all other required criteria, including nature of the products and production processes, distribution patterns and classes of customers, are aggregated as reportable segments.

The Company has four reportable business segments; Plain Bearings, Roller Bearings, Ball Bearings and Engineered Products, which are described below.

Plain Bearings. Plain bearings are produced with either self-lubricating or metal-to-metal designs and consists of several sub-classes, including rod end bearings, spherical plain bearings and journal bearings. Unlike ball bearings, which are used in high-speed rotational applications, plain bearings are primarily used to rectify inevitable misalignments in various mechanical components. The bearings and rings businesses of Sargent are included here.

Roller Bearings. Roller bearings are anti-friction bearings that use rollers instead of balls. The Company manufactures four basic types of roller bearings: heavy duty needle roller bearings with inner rings, tapered roller bearings, track rollers and aircraft roller bearings.

Ball Bearings. The Company manufactures four basic types of ball bearings: high precision aerospace, airframe control, thin section and commercial ball bearings which are used in high-speed rotational applications.

Engineered Products. Engineered Products consists of highly engineered hydraulics, fasteners, collets and precision components used in aerospace, marine and industrial applications. The hydraulics, fasteners and precision components businesses of Sargent are included here.

9. Acquisitions

On April 24, 2015, the Company acquired Sargent from Dover Corporation for $500,000 financed through a combination of cash on hand and senior debt. With headquarters in Tucson, Arizona, Sargent is a leader in precision-engineered products, solutions and repairs for aircraft airframes and engines, rotorcraft, submarines and land vehicles. Sargent manufactures, sells and services hydraulic valves and actuators, specialty bearings, specialty fasteners, seal rings & alignment joints and engineered components under leading brands including Kahr Bearing, Airtomic, Sonic Industries, Sargent Controls and Sargent Aerospace & Defense. The Company acquired Sargent because management believes it provides complementary products and channels, and expands and enhances the Company’s product portfolio and engineering technologies. The bearings and rings businesses are included in the Plain Bearings segment. The hydraulics, fasteners and precision components businesses are included in the Engineered Products segment.

The acquisition of Sargent was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of identifiable intangible assets, which were primarily customer relationships, product approvals, trade names, and patents and trademarks, were based on valuations using the income approach. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies and expected growth opportunities. The purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $224,715. The Company estimates a majority of goodwill will be deductible for United States income tax purposes.

The purchase price allocation for Sargent was as follows:

	As of April 24, 2015
Current assets	$	3,086
Trade receivables		24,100
Inventories		49,245
Property, plant and equipment		39,907
Intangible assets		202,500
Goodwill		224,715
Total assets acquired		543,553
Accounts payable		14,900
Liabilities assumed		28,653
Net assets acquired	$	500,000

The valuation of the net assets acquired of $500,000 was classified as Level 3 in the valuation hierarchy. Level 3 inputs represent unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The components of intangible assets included as part of the Sargent acquisition was as follows:

	Weighted Average Amortization Period (Years)	Gross Value
Amortizable intangible assets
Customer relationships	25	$	99,800
Product approvals	25		50,500
Trademarks and tradenames	10		18,000
			168,300
Non-amortizable intangible assets
Repair station certifications	-		34,200
Intangible assets		$	202,500

Overview

We are a well-known international manufacturer and maker of highly engineered precision bearings and components. Our precision solutions are integral to the manufacture and operation of most machines and mechanical systems, reduce wear to moving parts, facilitate proper power transmission and reduce damage and energy loss caused by friction. While we manufacture products in all major bearings categories, we focus primarily on the higher end of the bearing and engineered component markets where we believe our value added manufacturing and engineering capabilities enable us to differentiate ourselves from our competitors and enhance profitability. We believe our unique expertise has enabled us to garner leading positions in many of the product markets in which we primarily compete. With 38 facilities, of which 34 are manufacturing facilities in six countries, we have been able to significantly broaden our end markets, products, customer base and geographic reach. We currently operate under four reportable business segments: Plain Bearings; Roller Bearings; Ball Bearings; and Engineered Products. The following further describes these reportable segments:

17

Plain Bearings. Plain bearings are produced with either self-lubricating or metal-to-metal designs and consists of several sub-classes, including rod end bearings, spherical plain bearings and journal bearings. Unlike ball bearings, which are used in high-speed rotational applications, plain bearings are primarily used to rectify inevitable misalignments in various mechanical components.

Roller Bearings. Roller bearings are anti-friction bearings that use rollers instead of balls. We manufacture four basic types of roller bearings: heavy duty needle roller bearings with inner rings, tapered roller bearings, track rollers and aircraft roller bearings.

Ball Bearings. We manufacture four basic types of ball bearings: high precision aerospace, airframe control, thin section and commercial ball bearings which are used in high-speed rotational applications.

Engineered Products. Engineered Products consists of highly engineered hydraulics, fasteners, collets and precision components used in aerospace, marine and industrial applications.

Purchasers of bearings and engineered products include industrial equipment and machinery manufacturers, producers of commercial and military aerospace equipment such as missiles and radar systems, agricultural machinery manufacturers, construction, energy, mining, marine and specialized equipment manufacturers, marine products, automotive and commercial truck manufacturers. The markets for our products are cyclical, and we have endeavored to mitigate this cyclicality by entering into sole-source relationships and long-term purchase agreements, through diversification across multiple market segments within the aerospace and defense and diversified industrial segments, by increasing sales to the aftermarket and by focusing on developing highly customized solutions.

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

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

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

· Increasing aftermarket sales. We believe that increasing our aftermarket sales of replacement parts will further enhance the continuity and predictability of our revenues and enhance our profitability. Such sales included sales to third party distributors and sales to OEMs for replacement products and aftermarket services. We will increase the percentage of our revenues derived from the replacement market by continuing to implement several initiatives.

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

Outlook

Our net sales for the three month period ended October 1, 2016 increased 3.5% compared to the same period last fiscal year. Our aerospace markets increased 3.2% and the industrial markets increased 4.2%. Our backlog, as of October 1, 2016, was $341.8 million compared to $347.8 million as of September 26, 2015.

Management believes that operating cash flows and available credit under the credit facilities will provide adequate resources to fund internal and external growth initiatives for the foreseeable future. As of October 1, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $37.5 million of which approximately $31.4 million was cash held by our foreign operations. We expect that our undistributed foreign earnings will be re-invested indefinitely for working capital, internal growth and acquisitions for and by our foreign entities.

	Three Months Ended
	October 1, 2016		September 26, 2015		$ Change		% Change
Total net sales	$	153.9	$	148.7	$	5.2		3.5	%
Net income	$	18.2	$	14.5	$	3.7		25.5	%
Net income per common share: diluted	$	0.77	$	0.62
Weighted average common shares: diluted		23,712,717		23,495,285

Our net sales for the three month period ended October 1, 2016 increased 3.5% compared to the same period last fiscal year. The increase in net sales was a result of an 3.2% increase in our aerospace markets and a 4.2% increase in the industrial markets. The increase in aerospace sales was mainly due to the commercial aerospace OEM which was partly offset by lower defense and distribution activity. The increase in industrial sales was mostly driven by marine, mining, and semicon activity, partly offset by energy and light construction.

Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was $18.2 million compared to $14.5 million for the same period last year. Excluding the after tax impact of $0.2 of costs related to restructuring and discrete tax expense, net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 would have been $18.4 million. Excluding the after tax impact of $0.7 million in costs associated with the Sargent acquisition, $2.8 million in inventory purchase accounting associated with the Sargent acquisition, $0.1 million of costs associated with integration and restructuring, $0.1 million of discrete tax expense offset by $0.4 million of favorable foreign exchange translation, net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 would have been $17.8 million.

	Six Months Ended
	October 1, 2016		September 26, 2015		$ Change		% Change
Total net sales	$	308.5	$	291.0	$	17.5		6.0	%
Net income	$	36.3	$	27.9	$	8.4		29.9	%
Net income per common share: diluted	$	1.53	$	1.19
Weighted average common shares: diluted		23,670,000		23,516,537

Net sales increased $17.5 million or 6.0% for the six month period ended October 1, 2016 over the same period last year. The increase in net sales was mainly the result of a 7.3% increase in aerospace sales and a 3.6% increase in industrial. The increase in aerospace sales was mostly attributable to an increase in commercial aerospace OEM offset by a decrease in aerospace distribution and defense. The increase in industrial sales was mostly attributable to an increase in marine, mining, and semicon activity partly offset by energy and light construction activity

Net income for the six months ended October 1, 2016 was $36.3 million compared to $27.9 million for the same period last year. Excluding the after tax impact of $0.3 million in costs associated with the acquisition and $0.1 million in cost related to restructuring offset by $0.2 million of discrete tax benefit, net income would have been $36.5 million. Excluding the after tax impact of $3.5 million in costs associated with the acquisition, $4.4 million in inventory purchase accounting associated with the Sargent acquisition, $0.7 million of costs associated with integration and restructuring, and offset by $0.2 million of favorable foreign exchange translation, net income would have been $36.3 million for the six month period ended September 26, 2015.

Segment Information

We have four reportable product segments: Plain Bearings, Roller Bearings, Ball Bearings and Engineered Products. In fiscal 2016 we integrated the Sargent businesses into our Plain Bearings and Engineered Products segments (see Notes 8 and 9 of Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements). We use gross margin as the primary measurement to assess the financial performance of each reportable segment.

SG&A	$	5.8		$	5.9		$	(0.1	)		(1.4	)%
% of segment net sales		8.5	%		8.7	%

Net sales increased $1.2 million, or 1.8%, for the three months ended October 1, 2016 compared to the same period last year. The 1.8% increase was primarily driven by an increase of 3.7% in our aerospace markets offset by a decrease of 4.1% in the industrial markets. The increase in aerospace sales was mainly due to the commercial aerospace OEM. The decrease in industrial sales was mostly driven by energy and general industrial OEM.

Gross margin as a percent of sales decreased to 38.6% for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to 39.6% for the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable product mix.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our business is capital intensive. Our capital requirements include manufacturing equipment and materials. In addition, we have historically fueled our growth in part through acquisitions. We have historically met our working capital, capital expenditure requirements and acquisition funding needs through our net cash flows provided by operations, various debt arrangements and sale of equity to investors. We believe that operating cash flows and available credit under the credit facilities will provide adequate resources to fund internal and external growth initiatives for the foreseeable future.

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

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

Liquidity

As of October 1, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $37.5 million of which approximately $31.4 million was cash held by our foreign operations. We expect that our undistributed foreign earnings will be re-invested indefinitely for working capital, internal growth and acquisitions for and by our foreign entities.

The Credit Facility

In connection with the Sargent acquisition on April 24, 2015, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement and related Guarantee, Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer and the other lenders party thereto and terminated the JP Morgan Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides RBCA, as Borrower, with (a) a $200 million Term Loan and (b) a $350 million Revolver and together with the Term Loan (the “Facilities”).

Amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bear interest at (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus ½ of 1% and (3) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1% or (b) LIBOR rate plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA from time to time. Currently, our margin is 0.5% for base rate loans and 1.5% for LIBOR rate loans. As of October 1, 2016, there was $140.0 million outstanding under the Revolver and $187.5 million outstanding under the Term Loan, offset by $5.1 million in debt issuance costs (original amount was $7.1 million).

27

The Credit Agreement requires us to comply with various covenants, including among other things, financial covenants to maintain the following: (1) a ratio of consolidated net debt to adjusted EBITDA, not to exceed 3.50 to 1; and (2) a consolidated interest coverage ratio not to exceed 2.75 to 1. The New Credit Agreement allows us to, among other things, make distributions to shareholders, repurchase our stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that we comply with certain requirements and limitations of the agreement. As of October 1, 2016, we were in compliance with all such covenants.

Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured as well as providing for a pledge of substantially all of our assets. We and certain of our subsidiaries have also entered into a Guarantee to guarantee our obligations under the Credit Agreement.

Approximately $3.7 million of the Revolver is being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure RBCA’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs. As of October 1, 2016, RBCA has the ability to borrow up to an additional $206.3 million under the Revolver.

Other Notes Payable

On October 1, 2012, Schaublin purchased the land and building, which it occupied and had been leasing, for 14.1 million CHF (approximately $14.9 million). Schaublin obtained a 20 year fixed rate mortgage of 9.3 million CHF (approximately $9.9 million) at an interest rate of 2.9%. The balance of the purchase price of 4.8 million CHF (approximately $5.1 million) was paid from cash on hand. The balance on this mortgage as of October 1, 2016 was 7.4 million CHF, or $7.7 million.

Cash Flows

Six Month Period Ended October 1, 2016 Compared to the Six Month Period Ended September 26, 2015

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities:

	FY17			FY16			$ Change
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	38.5		$	40.3		$	(1.8	)
Investing activities		(10.2	)		(509.8	)		499.6
Financing activities		(30.0	)		388.4			(418.4	)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash		0.0			(0.3	)		0.3
Decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(1.7	)	$	(81.4	)	$	79.7

During fiscal 2017 we generated cash of $38.5 million from operating activities compared to generating cash of $40.3 million for fiscal 2016. The decrease of $1.8 million for fiscal 2017 was mainly a result of the unfavorable impact of the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $12.3 million offset by an increase in net income of $8.4 million and non-cash charges of $2.2 million. The unfavorable change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily the result of an increase in the amount of cash being used for working capital items as detailed in the table below, while the non-cash charges were primarily driven by a decrease in the excess tax impact from stock-based compensation of $1.3 million offset by an increased stock compensation of $1.3 million depreciation of $0.8 million and amortization of intangibles of $0.4 million.

28

The following chart summarizes the unfavorable change in operating assets and liabilities of $(12.3) million for fiscal 2017 versus fiscal 2016 and $(4.9) million for fiscal 2016 versus fiscal 2015.

	FY17			FY16
Cash provided by (used in):
Accounts receivable	$	(5.2	)	$	1.2
Inventory		3.8			(3.2	)
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		2.0			(1.3	)
Other non-current assets		(1.5	)		0.7
Accounts payable		0.8			(0.6	)
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities		(4.7	)		(6.7	)
Other non-current liabilities		(7.5	)		5.0
Total change in operating assets and liabilities:	$	(12.3	)	$	(4.9	)

During fiscal 2017, we used $10.2 million for investing activities as compared to $509.8 million for fiscal 2016. The decrease of cash used in investing activities of $499.6 million is primarily attributable to the $500.0 million used to finance the acquisition of Sargent.

During fiscal 2017, we used $30.0 million from financing activities compared to generating $388.4 million for fiscal 2016. This decrease in cash generated was primarily attributable to the $225.0 million revolving credit facility and $200.0 million proceeds from the term loan associated with the acquisition of Sargent in the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures were $9.6 million for the six month period ended October 1, 2016. In addition, we expect to make additional capital expenditures of $10.0 to $12.0 million during fiscal 2017 in connection with our existing business. We expect to fund fiscal 2017 capital expenditures principally through existing cash, internally generated funds and debt. We may also make substantial additional capital expenditures in connection with acquisitions.

Obligations and Commitments

The contractual obligations presented in the table below represent our estimates of future payments under fixed contractual obligations and commitments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions and interest rates, as well as actions by third parties and other factors, may cause these estimates to change. Because these estimates are necessarily subjective, our actual payments in future periods are likely to vary from those presented in the table. The following table summarizes certain of our contractual obligations and principal and interest payments under our debt instruments and leases as of October 1, 2016:

	Payments Due By Period
Contractual Obligations(1)	Total		Less than 1 Year		1 to 3 Years		3 to 5 Years		More than 5 Years
	(in thousands)
Total debt	$	335,163	$	11,729	$	38,458	$	279,708	$	5,268
Operating leases		17,538		3,053		8,600		3,649		2,236
Interest on debt(2)		24,857		6,770		12,630		4,546		911
Pension and postretirement benefits		19,055		1,826		3,788		3,895		9,546
Total contractual cash obligations	$	396,613	$	23,378	$	63,476	$	291,798	$	17,961

29

(1) We cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of when the unrecognized tax liability of $14.6 million, which includes interest and penalties, and is offset by deferred tax assets, will be paid to the respective taxing authorities. These obligations are therefore excluded from the above table.

(2) These amounts represent expected cash payments of interest on our variable rate long-term debt under our Facilities at the prevailing interest rates at October 1, 2016.

Other Matters

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Revenue Recognition. See page 7 in Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

Preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We believe the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the Consolidated Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our fiscal 2016 Annual Report, incorporated by reference in our fiscal 2016 Form 10-K, describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the first six months of fiscal 2017.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

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

Interest Rates. We currently have variable rate debt outstanding under the credit agreement. We regularly evaluate the impact of interest rate changes on our net income and cash flow and take action to limit our exposure when appropriate.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. As a result of our operations in Europe, we are exposed to risk associated with fluctuating currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar, the Euro, the Swiss Franc, the Polish Zloty and the Canadian Dollar. Our Swiss operations utilize the Swiss Franc as the functional currency, our French and German operations utilize the Euro as the functional currency, our Polish operations utilize the Polish Zloty as the functional currency and our Canadian operations utilize the Canadian Dollar as the functional currency. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in earnings. Approximately 11% of our net sales were impacted by foreign currency fluctuations in the first six months of both fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016. We expect that this proportion is likely to increase as we seek to increase our penetration of foreign markets, particularly within the aerospace and defense markets. Foreign currency transaction exposure arises primarily from the transfer of foreign currency from one subsidiary to another within the group, and to foreign currency denominated trade receivables. Unrealized currency translation gains and losses are recognized upon translation of the foreign subsidiaries’ balance sheets to U.S. dollars. Because our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars, changes in currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies have had, and will continue to have, an impact on our earnings. We periodically enter into derivative financial instruments in the form of forward exchange contracts to reduce the effect of fluctuations in exchange rates on certain third-party sales transactions denominated in non-functional currencies. Based on the accounting guidance related to derivatives and hedging activities, we record derivative financial instruments at fair value. For derivative financial instruments designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on these hedges is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), and is reclassified into earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. As of October 1, 2016, we had no derivatives.

30

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of October 1, 2016. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of October 1, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures were (1) designed to ensure that information relating to our Company required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and (2) effective, in that they provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the six month period ended October 1, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Organization and Business

The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by RBC Bearings Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The April 2, 2016 fiscal year end balance sheet data have been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The interim financial statements included with this report have been prepared on a consistent basis with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2016.

These statements reflect all adjustments, accruals and estimates consisting only of items of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The results of operations for the three month period ended October 1, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the entire fiscal year ending April 1, 2017. The three month periods ended October 1, 2016 and September 26, 2015 each include 13 weeks. The amounts shown are in thousands, unless otherwise indicated.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition. In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin 104,” we recognize revenues principally from the sale of products at the point of passage of title, which is at the time of shipment, except for certain customers for which it occurs when the products reach their destination.

We also recognize revenue on a Ship-In-Place basis for two customers who have required that we hold the product after final production is complete.  In this case, a written agreement has been executed (at the customer’s request) whereby the customer accepts the risk of loss for product that is invoiced under the Ship-In-Place arrangement.  For each transaction for which revenue is recognized under a Ship-In-Place arrangement, all final manufacturing inspections have been completed and customer acceptance has been obtained. In the three months ended October 1, 2016, 2.3% of the Company’s total net sales was recognized under Ship-In-Place transactions.

Adoption of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards update (“ASU") No. 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. This ASU includes provisions intended to simplify various aspects related to how share-based payments are accounted for and presented in the financial statements. This ASU is effective for public companies for the financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company has not determined the effect that the adoption of the pronouncement may have on its financial position and/or results of operations.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)”, which amends the principal-versus-agent implementation guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 (Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, issued by the FASB in May 2014. ASU No. 2016-08 clarifies the principal-versus-agent guidance in Topic 606 and requires an entity to determine whether the nature of its promise to provide goods or services to a customer is performed in a principal or agent capacity and to recognize revenue in a gross or net manner based on its principal/agent designation. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. This update requires the Company to recognize revenue at amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services at the time of transfer. In doing so, the Company will need to use more judgement and make more estimates than under today’s guidance, such estimates include identifying performance obligations in the contracts, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. The Company can either apply a full retrospective adoption or a modified retrospective adoption. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods therein. The Company has not determined the effect that the adoption of the pronouncement may have on its financial position and/or results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02: “Leases.” The core principal of ASU 2016-02 is that an entity should recognize on its balance sheet assets and liabilities arising from a lease. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as a finance or operating lease. This new accounting guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 under a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, (Topic 740): "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes". The FASB issued this ASU as part of its simplification initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. This ASU eliminates the current requirement that requires an organization to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, organizations with a classified balance sheet are now required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent assets or noncurrent liabilities. This ASU is effective for public companies for the financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company elected to early adopt this guidance prospectively during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016.

 

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments.” This ASU allows an acquirer in a business combination to account for measurement-period adjustments during the period in which it determines the amount of the adjustment. An acquirer would also need to capture in the current period any effect on earnings it would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this update effective with their interim period beginning June 28, 2015.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This update requires the company to measure inventory using the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This ASU applies to companies measuring inventory using methods other than the last-in, first-out (LIFO) and retail inventory methods, including but not limited to the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average costing methods. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-04, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits: Practical Expedient for the Measurement Date of an Employer’s Defined Benefit Obligation and Plan Assets.” This ASU permits an entity with a fiscal year-end that does not coincide with a month-end, to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the month end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal year-end and apply that consistently from year to year. The practical expedient requires if a contribution or significant event occurs between the month-end date used to measure the defined benefit plan assets and an entity’s fiscal year end, the entity should adjust the measurement of the defined benefit plan assets and obligations to reflect the effects of those contributions and other significant events. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has elected to adopt this guidance for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2016. The respective assets and liabilities associated with the defined benefit plans have been valued as of March 31, 2016, with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This ASU requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is allowed. The Company adopted this pronouncement in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Other than a different presentation within the balance sheet, the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, “Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items.” This update eliminates the concept of extraordinary items and removes the requirements to separately present extraordinary events. This ASU also requires additional disclosures for items that are both unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern.” This update requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and requires related footnote disclosures. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Net Income Per Common Share

2. Net Income Per Common Share

 

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

Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding using the treasury stock method. Common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options.

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

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

Effect of dilution due to employee stock awards		242,067		284,645		274,386		329,937

Diluted net income per common share	$	0.77	$	0.62	$	1.53	$	1.19

At October 1, 2016, 400,750 employee stock options have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. At September 26, 2015, 408,000 employee stock options and 73,850 restricted shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The inclusion of these employee stock options and unvested restricted shares would be anti-dilutive.

The Credit Facility

In connection with the Sargent Aerospace & Defense (“Sargent”) acquisition on April 24, 2015, the Company entered into the credit agreement and related Guarantee, Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer and the other lenders party thereto and terminated the JP Morgan Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides RBCA, as Borrower, with (a) a $200,000 Term Loan and (b) a $350,000 Revolver and together with the Term Loan ( the “Facilities”).

Amounts outstanding under the Facilities generally bear interest at (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) Wells Fargo’s prime lending rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1% and (3) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1% or (b) LIBOR rate plus a specified margin, depending on the type of borrowing being made. The applicable margin is based on the Company's consolidated ratio of total net debt to consolidated EBITDA from time to time. Currently, the Company's margin is 0.5% for base rate loans and 1.5% for LIBOR rate loans. As of October 1, 2016, there was $140,000 outstanding under the Revolver and $187,500 outstanding under the Term Loan, offset by $5,104 in debt issuance costs (original amount was $7,122).

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various covenants, including among other things, financial covenants to maintain the following: (1) a ratio of consolidated net debt to adjusted EBITDA, not to exceed 3.50 to 1; and (2) a consolidated interest coverage ratio not to exceed 2.75 to 1. The Credit Agreement allows the Company to, among other things, make distributions to shareholders, repurchase its stock, incur other debt or liens, or acquire or dispose of assets provided that the Company complies with certain requirements and limitations of the agreement. As of October 1 2016, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants.

The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured as well as providing for a pledge of substantially all of the Company’s and RBCA’s assets. The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have also entered into a Guarantee to guarantee RBCA’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.

Approximately $3,690 of the Revolver is being utilized to provide letters of credit to secure RBCA’s obligations relating to certain insurance programs. As of October 1, 2016, RBCA has the ability to borrow up to an additional $206,310 under the Revolver.

 

Other Notes Payable

On October 1, 2012, Schaublin purchased the land and building, which it occupied and had been leasing, for 14,067 CHF (approximately $14,910). Schaublin obtained a 20 year fixed rate mortgage of 9,300 CHF (approximately $9,857) at an interest rate of 2.9%. The balance of the purchase price of 4,767 CHF (approximately $5,053) was paid from cash on hand. The balance on this mortgage as of October 1, 2016 was 7,440 CHF, or $7,663.

7. Income Taxes  

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state or foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities for years ending before April 2, 2005. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years ending before March 29, 2014. A U.S. federal corporate income tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2013 was deemed effectively settled in the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2016.

The effective income tax rates for the three month periods ended October 1, 2016 and September 26, 2015, were 32.9% and 33.8%. In addition to discrete items, the effective income tax rates for these periods are different from the U.S. statutory rates due to a special U.S. manufacturing deduction, the U.S. credit for increasing research activities, and foreign income taxed at lower rates which decrease the rate, and state income taxes which increases the rate.

The effective income tax rate for the three month period ended October 1, 2016 of 32.9% includes immaterial discrete items of $33. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three month period ended October 1, 2016 would have been 32.7%. The effective income tax rate for the three month period ended September 26, 2015 of 33.8% includes immaterial discrete items of $51. The effective income tax rate without discrete items for the three month period ended September 26, 2015 would have been 33.5%. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that some of its unrecognized tax positions may be effectively settled within the next twelve months due to the closing of audits and the statute of limitations expiring in varying jurisdictions. The decrease, pertaining primarily to credits and state tax, is estimated to be approximately $942.

Reportable Segments

8. Reportable Segments

 

The Company operates through operating segments for which separate financial information is available, and for which operating results are evaluated regularly by the Company's chief operating decision maker in determining resource allocation and assessing performance. Those operating segments with similar economic characteristics and that meet all other required criteria, including nature of the products and production processes, distribution patterns and classes of customers, are aggregated as reportable segments.

The Company has four reportable business segments; Plain Bearings, Roller Bearings, Ball Bearings and Engineered Products, which are described below.

Plain Bearings. Plain bearings are produced with either self-lubricating or metal-to-metal designs and consists of several sub-classes, including rod end bearings, spherical plain bearings and journal bearings. Unlike ball bearings, which are used in high-speed rotational applications, plain bearings are primarily used to rectify inevitable misalignments in various mechanical components. The bearings and rings businesses of Sargent are included here.

Roller Bearings. Roller bearings are anti-friction bearings that use rollers instead of balls. The Company manufactures four basic types of roller bearings: heavy duty needle roller bearings with inner rings, tapered roller bearings, track rollers and aircraft roller bearings.

Ball Bearings. The Company manufactures four basic types of ball bearings: high precision aerospace, airframe control, thin section and commercial ball bearings which are used in high-speed rotational applications.

Engineered Products. Engineered Products consists of highly engineered hydraulics, fasteners, collets and precision components used in aerospace, marine and industrial applications. The hydraulics, fasteners and precision components businesses of Sargent are included here.

Segment performance is evaluated based on segment net sales and operating income. Items not allocated to segment operating income include corporate administrative expenses and certain other amounts.

Business Combinations [Abstract]

Acquisitions

9. Acquisitions 

On April 24, 2015, the Company acquired Sargent from Dover Corporation for $500,000 financed through a combination of cash on hand and senior debt. With headquarters in Tucson, Arizona, Sargent is a leader in precision-engineered products, solutions and repairs for aircraft airframes and engines, rotorcraft, submarines and land vehicles. Sargent manufactures, sells and services hydraulic valves and actuators, specialty bearings, specialty fasteners, seal rings & alignment joints and engineered components under leading brands including Kahr Bearing, Airtomic, Sonic Industries, Sargent Controls and Sargent Aerospace & Defense. The Company acquired Sargent because management believes it provides complementary products and channels, and expands and enhances the Company’s product portfolio and engineering technologies. The bearings and rings businesses are included in the Plain Bearings segment. The hydraulics, fasteners and precision components businesses are included in the Engineered Products segment.

The acquisition of Sargent was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of identifiable intangible assets, which were primarily customer relationships, product approvals, trade names, and patents and trademarks, were based on valuations using the income approach. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies and expected growth opportunities. The purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $224,715. The Company estimates a majority of goodwill will be deductible for United States income tax purposes.

 

The purchase price allocation for Sargent was as follows:

	As of April 24, 2015
Current assets	$	3,086
Trade receivables		24,100
Inventories		49,245
Property, plant and equipment		39,907
Intangible assets		202,500
Goodwill		224,715
Total assets acquired		543,553
Accounts payable		14,900
Liabilities assumed		28,653
Net assets acquired	$	500,000

The valuation of the net assets acquired of $500,000 was classified as Level 3 in the valuation hierarchy. Level 3 inputs represent unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

The components of intangible assets included as part of the Sargent acquisition was as follows:

	Weighted Average Amortization Period (Years)	Gross Value
Amortizable intangible assets
Customer relationships	25	$	99,800
Product approvals	25		50,500
Trademarks and tradenames	10		18,000
			168,300
Non-amortizable intangible assets
Repair station certifications	-		34,200
Intangible assets		$	202,500

Included in the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 are revenues related to the Sargent acquisition of $47,748 and $93,284, respectively. Also, included for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 is net income of $5,251 and $8,583, respectively. Included in the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended September 26, 2015 are revenues related to the Sargent acquisition of $45,507 and $79,509, respectively. Also, included for the three and six months ended September 26, 2015 is net income of $1,407 and $5,232, respectively. There were no acquisition-related expenses for both the three and six months ended October 1, 2016. Acquisition-related expenses were recorded in Other, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for both the three and six months ended September 26, 2015 of $1,283 and $6,071, respectively.

The following supplemental pro forma financial information presents the financial results for the six months ended October 1, 2016 and September 26, 2015, as if the acquisition of Sargent had occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2015. The pro forma financial information includes, where applicable, adjustments for: (i) the estimated amortization of acquired intangible assets, (ii) estimated additional interest expense on acquisition related borrowings, (iii) the income tax effect on the pro forma adjustments using an estimated effective tax rate. The pro forma financial information excludes, where applicable, adjustments for: (i) the estimated impact of inventory purchase accounting adjustments and (ii) the estimated closing costs on the acquisition. The pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved had the acquisition been completed as of the date indicated or the results that may be obtained in the future:

Revenue Recognition. In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin 104,” we recognize revenues principally from the sale of products at the point of passage of title, which is at the time of shipment, except for certain customers for which it occurs when the products reach their destination.

We also recognize revenue on a Ship-In-Place basis for two customers who have required that we hold the product after final production is complete.  In this case, a written agreement has been executed (at the customer’s request) whereby the customer accepts the risk of loss for product that is invoiced under the Ship-In-Place arrangement.  For each transaction for which revenue is recognized under a Ship-In-Place arrangement, all final manufacturing inspections have been completed and customer acceptance has been obtained. In the three months ended October 1, 2016, 2.3% of the Company’s total net sales was recognized under Ship-In-Place transactions.

Adoption of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards update (“ASU") No. 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. This ASU includes provisions intended to simplify various aspects related to how share-based payments are accounted for and presented in the financial statements. This ASU is effective for public companies for the financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company has not determined the effect that the adoption of the pronouncement may have on its financial position and/or results of operations.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)”, which amends the principal-versus-agent implementation guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 (Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, issued by the FASB in May 2014. ASU No. 2016-08 clarifies the principal-versus-agent guidance in Topic 606 and requires an entity to determine whether the nature of its promise to provide goods or services to a customer is performed in a principal or agent capacity and to recognize revenue in a gross or net manner based on its principal/agent designation. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. This update requires the Company to recognize revenue at amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services at the time of transfer. In doing so, the Company will need to use more judgement and make more estimates than under today’s guidance, such estimates include identifying performance obligations in the contracts, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. The Company can either apply a full retrospective adoption or a modified retrospective adoption. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods therein. The Company has not determined the effect that the adoption of the pronouncement may have on its financial position and/or results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02: “Leases.” The core principal of ASU 2016-02 is that an entity should recognize on its balance sheet assets and liabilities arising from a lease. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as a finance or operating lease. This new accounting guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 under a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, (Topic 740): "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes". The FASB issued this ASU as part of its simplification initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. This ASU eliminates the current requirement that requires an organization to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, organizations with a classified balance sheet are now required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent assets or noncurrent liabilities. This ASU is effective for public companies for the financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company elected to early adopt this guidance prospectively during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016.

 

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments.” This ASU allows an acquirer in a business combination to account for measurement-period adjustments during the period in which it determines the amount of the adjustment. An acquirer would also need to capture in the current period any effect on earnings it would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this update effective with their interim period beginning June 28, 2015.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This update requires the company to measure inventory using the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This ASU applies to companies measuring inventory using methods other than the last-in, first-out (LIFO) and retail inventory methods, including but not limited to the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average costing methods. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-04, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits: Practical Expedient for the Measurement Date of an Employer’s Defined Benefit Obligation and Plan Assets.” This ASU permits an entity with a fiscal year-end that does not coincide with a month-end, to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the month end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal year-end and apply that consistently from year to year. The practical expedient requires if a contribution or significant event occurs between the month-end date used to measure the defined benefit plan assets and an entity’s fiscal year end, the entity should adjust the measurement of the defined benefit plan assets and obligations to reflect the effects of those contributions and other significant events. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has elected to adopt this guidance for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2016. The respective assets and liabilities associated with the defined benefit plans have been valued as of March 31, 2016, with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This ASU requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is allowed. The Company adopted this pronouncement in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Other than a different presentation within the balance sheet, the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, “Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items.” This update eliminates the concept of extraordinary items and removes the requirements to separately present extraordinary events. This ASU also requires additional disclosures for items that are both unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern.” This update requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and requires related footnote disclosures. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
