PART I

Item 1. Business

Standex International Corporation was incorporated in 1975 and is the successor of a corporation organized in 1955. As used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Standex” mean Standex International Corporation and its subsidiaries. We have paid dividends each quarter since Standex became a public corporation in November 1964.

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

We are a leading manufacturer of a variety of products and services for diverse commercial and industrial markets. We have 9 operating business units, aggregated and organized for reporting purposes into five segments: Food Service Equipment, Engraving, Engineering Technologies, Electronics and Hydraulics. Overall management, strategic development and financial control are led by the executive staff at our corporate headquarters in Salem, New Hampshire.

Our long-term strategy is to enhance shareholder value by building larger, more profitable industrial platforms through a value creation system that assists management in meeting specific corporate and business unit financial and strategic performance goals in order to create, improve, and enhance shareholder value. The Standex Value Creation System is a standard methodology which provides consistent tools used throughout the company in order to achieve our organization’s goals. The Standex Value Creation System employs four components: Balanced Performance Plan, Standex Growth Disciplines, Standex Operational Excellence, and Standex Talent Management. The Balanced Performance Plan process aligns annual goals throughout the business and provides a standard reporting, management and review process. It is focused on setting and meeting annual and quarterly targets that support our short and long-term goals. The Standex Growth Disciplines use a set of tools and processes including market maps, growth laneways, and market tests to identify opportunities to expand the business organically and through acquisitions. Standex Operational Excellence employs a standard playbook and processes, including LEAN, to eliminate waste and improve profitability, cash flow and customer satisfaction. Finally, the Standex Talent Management process is an organizational development process that provides training, development, and succession planning for our employees throughout our worldwide organization. The Standex Value Creation System ties all disciplines in the organization together under a common umbrella by providing standard tools and processes to deliver our business objectives.

1

● It is our objective to grow larger and more profitable business units through both organic initiatives and acquisitions. We seek to identify and implement organic growth initiatives such as new product development, geographic expansion, introduction of products and technologies into new markets and applications, key accounts and strategic sales channel partners. Also, we have a long-term objective to create sizable business platforms by adding strategically aligned or “bolt on” acquisitions to strengthen the individual businesses, create both sales and cost synergies with our core business platforms, and accelerate their growth and margin improvement. We look to drive continuous improvement within our core business platforms, accelerate growth and improve margins. We have a particular focus on identifying and investing in opportunities that complement our products and will increase the global presence and capabilities of our businesses. From time to time, we have divested, and likely will continue to divest, businesses that we feel are not strategic or do not meet our growth and return expectations.

● We create “Customer Intimacy” by collaborating with our customers in order to develop and deliver custom solutions or engineered components that solve problems for our customers or otherwise meet their needs. This relationship generally provides us with the ability to identify new sales opportunities with our customers, increase profit over time and provide operating margins that enhance shareholder returns. Further, we have made a priority of developing new sales channels and leveraging strategic customer relationships.

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

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

Item 1A. Risk Factors

An investment in the Company involves various risks, including those mentioned below and those that are discussed from time to time in our other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Investors should carefully consider these risks, along with the other information filed in this report, before making an investment decision regarding the Company. Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and/or value of an investment in the Company.

A deterioration in the domestic and international economic environment could adversely affect our operating results, cashflow and financial condition.

Recessionary economic conditions, with or without a tightening of credit, could adversely impact major markets served by our businesses, including cyclical markets such as automotive, aviation, energy and power, heavy construction vehicle, general industrial, consumer appliances and food service. An economic recession could adversely affect our business by:

• reducing demand for our products and services, particularly in markets where demand for our products and services is cyclical;

• causing delays or cancellations of orders for our products or services;

• reducing capital spending by our customers;

• increasing price competition in our markets;

• increasing difficulty in collecting accounts receivable;

• increasing the risk of excess or obsolete inventories;

• increasing the risk of impairment to long-lived assets due to reduced use of manufacturing facilities;

• increasing the risk of supply interruptions that would be disruptive to our manufacturing processes; and

• reducing the availability of credit and spending power for our customers.

We rely on our credit facility to provide us with sufficient capital to operate our businesses and to fund acquisitions.

We rely on our revolving credit facility, in part along with operating cash flow, to provide us with sufficient capital to operate our businesses and to fund acquisitions. The availability of borrowings under our revolving credit facility is dependent upon our compliance with the covenants set forth in the facility, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios. Our ability to comply with these covenants is dependent upon our future performance, which is subject to economic conditions in our markets along with factors that are beyond our control. Violation of those covenants could result in our lenders restricting or terminating our borrowing ability under our credit facility, cause us to be liable for covenant waiver fees or other obligations, or trigger an event of default under the terms of our credit facility, which could result in acceleration of the debt under the facility and require prepayment of the debt before its due date. Even if new financing is available, in the event of a default under our current credit facility, the interest rate charged on any new borrowing could be substantially higher than under the current credit facility, thus adversely affecting our overall financial condition. If our lenders reduce or terminate our access to amounts under our credit facility, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our working capital needs and/or acquisitions or we may need to secure additional capital or financing to fund our working capital requirements or to repay outstanding debt under our credit facility or to fund acquisitions.

8

Our credit facility contains covenants that restrict our activities.

Our revolving credit facility contains covenants that restrict our activities, including our ability to:

• incur additional indebtedness;

• make investments, including acquisitions;

• create liens;

• pay cash dividends to shareholders unless we are compliant with the financial covenants set forth in the credit facility; and

• sell material assets.

Our global operations subject us to international business risks.

We operate in 69 locations outside of the United States in Europe, Canada, China, Japan, India, Singapore, Korea, Mexico, Brazil, Turkey, Malaysia, and South Africa. If we are unable to successfully manage the risks inherent to the operation and expansion of our global businesses, those risks could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cashflow or financial condition. These international business risks include:

• fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

• changes in government regulations;

• restrictions on repatriation of earnings;

• import and export controls;

• political, social and economic instability;

• potential adverse tax consequences;

• difficulties in staffing and managing multi-national operations;

• unexpected changes in zoning or other land-use requirements;

• difficulties in our ability to enforce legal rights and remedies; and

• changes in regulatory requirements.

Failure to achieve expected savings and synergies could adversely impact our operating profits and cash flows.

We focus on improving profitability through LEAN enterprise, low cost sourcing and manufacturing initiatives, improving working capital management, developing new and enhanced products, consolidating factories where appropriate, automating manufacturing processes, diversification efforts and completing acquisitions which deliver synergies to stimulate sales and growth. If we are unable to successfully execute these programs, such failure could adversely affect our operating profits and cash flows. In addition, actions we may take to consolidate manufacturing operations to achieve cost savings or adjust to market developments may result in restructuring charges that adversely affect our profits.

Violation of anti-bribery or similar laws by our employees, business partners or agents could result in fines, penalties, damage to our reputation or other adverse consequences.

We cannot assure that our internal controls, code of conduct and training of our employees will provide complete protection from reckless or criminal acts of our employees, business partners or agents that might violate United States or international laws relating to anti-bribery or similar topics. A violation of these laws could subject us to civil or criminal investigations that could result in substantial civil or criminal fines and penalties and which could damage our reputation.

We face significant competition in our markets and, if we are not able to respond to competition in our markets, our net sales, profits and cash flows could decline.

Our businesses operate in highly competitive markets. To compete effectively, we must retain long standing relationships with significant customers, offer attractive pricing, maintain product quality, meet customer delivery requirements, develop enhancements to products that offer performance features that are superior to our competitors and which maintain our brand recognition, continue to automate our manufacturing capabilities, continue to grow our business by establishing relationships with new customers, diversify into emerging markets and penetrate new markets. In addition, many of our businesses experience sales churn as customers seek lower cost suppliers. We attempt to offset this churn through our continual pursuit of new business opportunities. However, if we are unable to compete effectively or succeed in our pursuit of new business opportunities, our net sales, profitability and cash flows could decline. Pricing pressures resulting from competition may adversely affect our net sales and profitability.

9

If we are unable to successfully introduce new products and product enhancements, our future growth could be impaired.

Our ability to develop new products and innovations to satisfy customer needs or demands in the markets we serve can affect our competitive position and often requires significant investment of resources. Difficulties or delays in research, development or production of new products and services or failure to gain market acceptance of new products and technologies may significantly reduce future net sales and adversely affect our competitive position.

Increased prices or significant shortages of the commodities that we use in our businesses could result in lower net sales, profits and cash flows.

We purchase large quantities of steel, aluminum, refrigeration components, freight services, foam insulation and other metal commodities for the manufacture of our products. We also purchase significant quantities of relatively rare elements used in the manufacture of certain of our electronics products. Historically, prices for commodities and rare elements have fluctuated, and we are unable to enter into long term contracts or other arrangements to hedge the risk of price increases in many of these commodities. Significant price increases for these commodities and rare elements could adversely affect our operating profits if we cannot timely mitigate the price increases by successfully sourcing lower cost commodities or rare elements or by passing the increased costs on to customers. Shortages or other disruptions in the supply of these commodities or rare elements could delay sales or increase costs.

Current and threatened tariffs on components and finished goods from China and other countries could result in lower net sales, profits and cash flows and could impair the value of our investments in our Chinese operations.

As part of our low-cost country sourcing strategy, we (i) maintain manufacturing facilities in China and (ii) import certain components and finished goods from our own facilities and third-party suppliers in China. Many of the components and finished goods we import from China are subject to tariffs recently enacted by the United States government as well as additional proposed tariffs. While we attempt to pass on these additional costs to our customers, competitive factors (including competitors who import from other countries not subject to such tariffs) may limit our ability to sustain price increases and, as a result, may adversely impact our net sales, profits and cash flows. The maintenance of such tariffs over the long-term also could impair the value of our investments in our Chinese operations. In addition, the imposition of tariffs may influence the sourcing habits of certain end users of our products and services which, in turn, could have a direct impact on the requirements of our direct customers for our products and services. Such an impact could adversely affect our net sales, profits and cash flows.

An inability to identify or complete future acquisitions could adversely affect our future growth.

As part of our growth strategy, we intend to pursue acquisitions that provide opportunities for profitable growth for our businesses and enable us to leverage our competitive strengths. While we continue to evaluate potential acquisitions, we may not be able to identify and successfully negotiate suitable acquisitions, obtain financing for future acquisitions on satisfactory terms, obtain regulatory approval for certain acquisitions or otherwise complete acquisitions in the future. An inability to identify or complete future acquisitions could limit our future growth.

We may experience difficulties in integrating acquisitions.

Integration of acquired companies involves several risks, including:

• inability to operate acquired businesses profitably;

• failure to accomplish strategic objectives for those acquisitions;

• unanticipated costs relating to acquisitions or to the integration of the acquired businesses;

• difficulties in achieving planned cost savings synergies and growth opportunities; and

• possible future impairment charges for goodwill and non-amortizable intangible assets that are recorded as a function of acquisitions.

Additionally, our level of indebtedness may increase in the future if we finance acquisitions with debt, which would cause us to incur additional interest expense and could increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions and limit our ability to service our debt or obtain additional financing. We cannot assure that future acquisitions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Impairment charges could reduce our profitability.

We test goodwill and our other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for impairment on an annual basis or on an interim basis if a potential impairment factor arises that indicates the fair value of the reporting unit may fall below its carrying value. Various uncertainties, including continued adverse conditions in the capital markets or changes in general economic conditions, could impact the future operating performance at one or more of our businesses which could significantly affect our valuations and could result in additional future impairments. The recognition of an impairment of a significant portion of goodwill would negatively affect our results of operations.

10

Materially adverse or unforeseen legal judgments, fines, penalties or settlements could have an adverse impact on our profits and cash flows.

We are and may, from time to time, become a party to legal proceedings incidental to our businesses, including, but not limited to, alleged claims relating to product liability, environmental compliance, patent infringement, commercial disputes and employment and regulatory matters. In accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, we establish reserves based on our assessment of contingent liabilities. Subsequent developments in legal proceedings may affect our assessment and estimates of loss contingencies, recorded as reserves, which could require us to record additional reserves or make material payments which could adversely affect our profits and cash flows. Even the successful defense of legal proceedings may cause us to incur substantial legal costs and may divert management's time and resources away from our businesses.

The costs of complying with existing or future environmental regulations, and of correcting any violations of these regulations, could impact our profitability.

We are subject to a variety of environmental laws relating to the storage, discharge, handling, emission, generation, use and disposal of chemicals, hazardous waste and other toxic and hazardous materials used to manufacture, or resulting from the process of manufacturing, our products. We cannot predict the nature, scope or effect of regulatory requirements to which our operations might be subject or the manner in which existing or future laws will be administered or interpreted. We are also exposed to potential legacy environmental risks relating to businesses we no longer own or operate. Future regulations could be applied to materials, products or activities that have not been subject to regulation previously. The costs of complying with new or more stringent regulations, or with more vigorous enforcement of these or existing regulations, could be significant.

In addition, properly permitted waste disposal facilities used by us as a legal and legitimate repository for hazardous waste may in the future become mismanaged or abandoned without our knowledge or involvement. In such event, legacy landfill liability could attach to or be imposed upon us in proportion to the waste deposited at any disposal facility.

Environmental laws require us to maintain and comply with a number of permits, authorizations and approvals and to maintain and update training programs and safety data regarding materials used in our processes. Violations of these requirements could result in financial penalties and other enforcement actions. We could be required to halt one or more portions of our operations until a violation is cured. Although we attempt to operate in compliance with these environmental laws, we may not succeed in this effort at all times. The costs of curing violations or resolving enforcement actions that might be initiated by government authorities could be substantial.

The costs of complying with existing or future regulations applicable to our products, and of correcting any violations of such regulations, could impact our profitability.

Certain of our products are subject to regulations promulgated by administrative agencies such as the Department of Energy, Occupational Health and Safety Administration and the Food and Drug Administration. Such regulations, among other matters, specify requirements regarding energy efficiency and product safety. Regulatory violations could result in financial penalties and other enforcement actions. We could be required to halt production of one or more products until a violation is cured. Although we attempt to produce our products in compliance with these requirements, the costs of curing violations or resolving enforcement actions that might be initiated by administrative agencies could be substantial.

Our results could be adversely affected by natural disasters, political crises, or other catastrophic events.

Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, and other adverse weather and climate conditions; political crises, such as terrorist attacks, war, labor unrest, and other political instability; or other catastrophic events, such as disasters occurring at our suppliers' manufacturing facilities, whether occurring in the United States or internationally, could disrupt our operations or the operations of one or more of our suppliers. Certain of our key manufacturing facilities are located in geographic areas with a higher than nominal risk of earthquake and flood. To the extent any of these events occur, our operations and financial results could be adversely affected.

We depend on our key personnel and the loss of their services may adversely affect our business.

We believe that our success depends on our ability to hire new talent and the continued employment of our senior management team and other key personnel. If one or more members of our senior management team or other key personnel were unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, our business could be seriously harmed. In addition, if any of our key personnel joins a competitor or forms a competing company, some of our customers might choose to use the services of that competitor or those of a new company instead of our own. Other companies seeking to develop capabilities and products or services similar to ours may hire away some of our key personnel. If we are unable to maintain our key personnel and attract new employees, the execution of our business strategy may be hindered and our growth limited.

11

Strategic divestitures and contingent liabilities from businesses that we sell could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

From time to time, we have sold and may continue to sell business that we consider to be either underperforming or no longer part of our strategic vision. The sale of any such business could result in a financial loss and/or write-down of goodwill which could have a material adverse effect on our results for the financial reporting period during which such sale occurs. In addition, in connection with such divestitures, we have retained, and may in the future retain responsibility for some of the known and unknown contingent liabilities related to certain divestitures such as lawsuits, tax liabilities, product liability claims, and environmental matters.

The trading price of our common stock has been volatile, and investors in our common stock may experience substantial losses.

The trading price of our common stock has been volatile and may become volatile again in the future. The trading price of our common stock could decline or fluctuate in response to a variety of factors, including:

• our failure to meet the performance estimates of securities analysts;

• changes in financial estimates of our net sales and operating results or buy/sell recommendations by securities analysts;

• fluctuations in our quarterly operating results;

• substantial sales of our common stock;

• changes in the amount or frequency of our payment of dividends or repurchases of our common stock;

• general stock market conditions; or

• other economic or external factors.

Decreases in discount rates and actual rates of return could require an increase in future pension contributions to our pension plans which could limit our flexibility in managing our Company.

The discount rate and the expected rate of return on plan assets represent key assumptions inherent in our actuarially calculated pension plan obligations and pension plan expense. If discount rates and actual rates of return on invested plan assets were to decrease significantly, our pension plan obligations could increase materially. Although our pension plans have been frozen, the size of future required pension contributions could require us to dedicate a greater portion of our cash flow from operations to making contributions, which could negatively impact our financial flexibility.

Our business could be negatively impacted by cybersecurity threats, information systems and network interruptions, and other security threats or disruptions.

Our information technology networks and related systems are critical to the operation of our business and essential to our ability to successfully perform day-to-day operations. Cybersecurity threats are persistent, evolve quickly, and include, but are not limited to, computer viruses, ransomware, attempts to access information, denial of service and other electronic security breaches. These events could disrupt our operations or customers and other third-party IT systems in which we are involved and could negatively impact our reputation among our customers and the public which could have a negative impact on our financial conditions, results of operations, or liquidity.

We are subject to increasing regulation associated with data privacy and processing, the violation of which could result in significant penalties and harm our reputation.

Regulatory scrutiny of privacy, data protection, collection, use and sharing of data is increasing on a global basis. Like all global companies, we are subject to a number of laws, rules and directives (“privacy laws”) relating to the collection, use, retention, security, processing and transfer (“processing”) of personally identifiable information about our employees, customers and suppliers (“personal data”) in the countries where we operate. The most notable of these privacy laws is the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which came into effect in 2018. GDPR extends the scope of the EU data protection law to all foreign companies processing data of EU residents and imposes a strict data protection compliance regime with severe penalties for non-compliance of up to the greater of 4% of worldwide turnover and €20 million. While we continue to strengthen our data privacy and protection policies and to train our personnel accordingly, a determination that there have been violations of GDPR or other privacy or data protection laws could expose us to significant damage awards, fines and other penalties that could, individually or in the aggregate, materially harm our results of operations and reputation.

12

Various restrictions in our charter documents, Delaware law and our credit agreement could prevent or delay a change in control that is not supported by our board of directors.

We are subject to several provisions in our charter documents, Delaware law and our credit facility that may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or change of control that a stockholder may consider favorable. These anti-takeover provisions include:

• maintaining a classified board and imposing advance notice procedures for nominations of candidates for election as directors and for stockholder proposals to be considered at stockholders' meetings;

• a provision in our certificate of incorporation that requires the approval of the holders of 80% of the outstanding shares of our common stock to adopt any agreement of merger, the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company to a third party or the issuance or transfer by the Company of voting securities having a fair market value of $1 million or more to a third party, if in any such case such third party is the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock, unless the transaction has been approved prior to its consummation by all of our directors;

• requiring the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the outstanding shares of our common stock for stockholders to amend our amended and restated by-laws;

• covenants in our credit facility restricting mergers, asset sales and similar transactions; and

• the Delaware anti-takeover statute contained in Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law prohibits a merger, consolidation, asset sale or other similar business combination between the Company and any stockholder of 15% or more of our voting stock for a period of three years after the stockholder acquires 15% or more of our voting stock, unless (1) the transaction is approved by our board of directors before the stockholder acquires 15% or more of our voting stock, (2) upon completing the transaction the stockholder owns at least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the commencement of the transaction, or (3) the transaction is approved by our board of directors and the holders of 66 2/3% of our voting stock, excluding shares of our voting stock owned by the stockholder.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

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

Our long-term strategy is to build larger industrial platforms through a value creation system that assists management in meeting specific corporate and business unit financial and strategic performance goals in order to create, improve, and enhance shareholder value.  The Standex Value Creation System is a standard methodology which provides consistent tools used throughout the company in order to achieve our organization’s goal of transforming from its historic roots as a holding company to an efficient operating company.  The Standex Value Creation System employs four components: Balanced Performance Plan, Standex Growth Disciplines, Standex Operational Excellence, and Standex Talent Management.  The Balanced Performance Plan process aligns annual goals throughout the business and provides a standard reporting, management and review process.  It is focused on setting and meeting annual and quarterly targets that support our short and long term goals.  The Standex Growth Disciplines use a set of tools and processes including market maps, growth laneways, and market tests to identify opportunities to expand the business organically and through acquisitions.  Standex Operational Excellence employs a standard playbook and processes, including LEAN, to eliminate waste and improve profitability, cash flow and customer satisfaction.  Finally, the Standex Talent Management process is an organizational development process that provides training, development, and succession planning for our employees throughout our worldwide organization.  The Standex Value Creation System ties all disciplines in the organization together under a common umbrella by providing standard tools and processes to deliver our business objectives. Through the use of our Standex Value Creation System, we have developed a balanced approach to value creation.  While we intend to continue investing acquisition capital in high margin and growth segments such as Electronics and Engraving, we will continue to support all of our businesses as they enhance value through deployment of our GDP+ and OpEx playbooks. 

● It is our objective to grow larger and more profitable business units through both organic initiatives and acquisitions.  We seek to identify and implement organic growth initiatives such as new product development, geographic expansion, introduction of products and technologies into new markets and applications, key accounts and strategic sales channel partners.  Also, we have a long-term objective to create sizable business platforms by adding strategically aligned or “bolt on” acquisitions to strengthen the individual businesses, create both sales and cost synergies with our core business platforms, and accelerate their growth and margin improvement.  We look to create both sales and cost synergies within our core business platforms, accelerate growth and improve margins.  We have a particular focus on identifying and investing in opportunities that complement our products and will increase the global presence and capabilities of our businesses.  From time to time, we have divested, and likely will continue to divest, businesses that we feel are not strategic or do not meet our growth and return expectations.

18

As part of our ongoing strategy:

o During the first quarter of 2019, the Company decided to divest its Cooking Solutions Group, which consisted of three operating segments, Associated American Industries, BKI, and Ultrafryer, and a minority interest investment.  We completed this divestiture during the third quarter of 2019 and received proceeds for the sale on the first day of the fourth quarter.  In connection with the divestiture efforts, we also sold our minority interest in a European oven manufacturer back to the majority owners.  Results of the Cooking Solutions Group in current and prior periods have been classified as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

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

o In September 2018, we acquired New Hampshire-based Regional Mfg. Specialists, Inc. (now named Agile Magnetics, Inc.), a provider of high-reliability magnetics.  The addition of Agile Magnetics is an important step forward in building out the high reliability magnetics business of Standex Electronics. As a result of this combination, we have broadened our exposure to several high-growth end-markets and added a valuable manufacturing and sales base in the Northeast. Additionally, we can now offer complementary products from Standex’s broader portfolio to Agile’s customer base.  Agile Magnetics products include transformers, inductors and coils for mission critical applications for blue chip OEMs in the semiconductor, military, aerospace, healthcare, and industrial markets. Agile operates one manufacturing facility in New Hampshire and its results are reported within our Electronics segment.

o In August 2018, we acquired Michigan-based Tenibac-Graphion, Inc., a provider of chemical and laser texturing services.  The combination of Tenibac and Standex Engraving will expand services available to customers, increase responsiveness to customer demands, and drive innovative approaches to solving customer needs.  The combined customer base now has access to the full line of mold and tool services, such as the Architexture design consultancy,chemical and laser engraving, tool finishing, and tool enhancements.  Tenibac serves automotive, packaging, medical and consumer products customers, and operates three facilities, two in Michigan and one in China. The Tenibac results are reported within our Engraving segment.

o We acquired Italy-based Piazza Rosa Group (“Piazza Rosa”) in July 2017.  The privately held company is a leading provider of mold, tool treatment and finishing services for the automotive and consumer products markets.  The combination of these competencies with Standex Engraving’s worldwide presence and texturizing capabilities creates a global tool finishing service leader and provides additional opportunities in the broader surface engineering market. The Piazza Rosa Group’s results are reported within our Engraving segment.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Net sales for the fiscal year 2019 increased by $21.1 million, or 2.7%, when compared to the prior year.  Incremental sales from our recent acquisitions accounted for $29.1 million or 3.8% of the increase, while organic sales gains accounted for $4.0 million or 0.5%.  Changes in foreign exchange rates contributed to sales declines of $12.0 million or 1.6%. The organic sales increases occurred in all of our segments except the Food Service Equipment Group.

20

Net sales for the fiscal year 2018 increased by $122.6 million, or 18.9%, when compared to the prior year. Incremental sales increases from our recent acquisitions accounted for $59.9 million or 9.2%, while increased organic sales accounted for $48.3 million or 7.5%. We also recognized sales growth of $14.4 million or 2.2% related to favorable foreign exchange impacts. The organic sales increases occurred in all segments except Engineering Technologies.

Gross Profit Margin

Gross margin in 2019 declined to 33.9% as compared to 35.0% in 2018 as a result of incremental purchase accounting,  material and wage inflation, manufacturing inefficiencies, country specific site performance and an asset impairment charge. Gross Margins are anticipated to improve in FY 20 as cost reduction activities have been put in place along with the non-repeating onetime items.

During 2018, gross margin increased to 35.0% as compared to 33.3% in 2017. Gross margin increases during fiscal year 2018 were primarily driven by the leverage on our 7.5% organic sales increase.

Restructuring Charges and Acquisition Related Expenses

During fiscal year 2019, we incurred restructuring expenses of $1.6 million primarily related to restructuring efforts that are intended to improve profitability, streamline production and enhance capacity to support future growth. These efforts include approximately $0.6 million related to headcount reductions and the closure of an unprofitable European Engraving site.

Acquisition related expenses in fiscal year 2019 were $3.6 million. These expenses were comprised primarily of $2.8 million for deferred compensation earned by the Horizon Scientific seller during the year. Because these payments are contingent on the seller remaining an employee of the Company, they are treated as compensation expense. Other acquisition related expenses consist of due diligence and valuation expenses incurred during the acquisition of Tenibac, Agile, and GS Engineering. 

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses, (“SG&A”) for the fiscal year 2019 were $184.7 million, or 23.3% of sales compared to $178.9 million, or 23.2% of sales during the prior year. SG&A expenses were impacted by on-going expenses related to our fiscal year 2019 acquisitions of $7.4 million partially offset by a decrease in distribution and selling expenses of $2.0 million due to sales mix, and a $1.7 million reduction in corporate expenses.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses, (“SG&A”) for the fiscal year 2018 were $178.9 million, or 23.2% of sales compared to $145.0 million, or 22.4% of sales during the prior year. SG&A expenses were impacted by: (i) on-going SG&A expenses related to our recent acquisitions of $7.8 million, (ii) an increase in distribution and selling expenses of $10.2 million, (iii) an increase in administrative expenses related to investments to support our recent acquisitions and growth laneways and (iv) a $3.1 million increase in administrative compensation costs due to improved performance.

Income from Operations

Income from operations for the fiscal year 2019 was $78.1 million, compared to $80.0 million during the prior year. The $1.9 million decrease, or 2.4%, is primarily due to material and wage inflation, and business mix, partially offset by lower restructuring costs. 

Income from operations for the fiscal year 2018 was $80.0 million, compared to $56.9 million during the prior year. The $23.1 million increase, or 40.6%, is primarily due to increased sales volume, including 7.5% organic sales growth and 9.2% growth attributed to our recent acquisitions. The increase in operating income is also partially due to the reduction in acquisition related expenses of $4.1 million as compared to fiscal year 2017.

Discussion of the performance of each of our reportable segments is fully explained in the segment analysis that follows.  

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the fiscal year 2019 was $10.8 million, an increase of $2.7 million as compared to the prior year.  Increased interest expense was a result of higher borrowing costs and an increase in average outstanding borrowings for the year, primarily to fund acquisition activity.  Our effective interest rate of 3.88% was 59 basis points or 18% higher than the 2018 effective interest rate of 3.29%.

Interest expense for fiscal year 2018 was $8.0 million, an increase from $4.0 million in fiscal year 2017. The increase is due to higher borrowings associated with the recent acquisitions, in addition to working capital increases to support increased sales activity. In addition, we incurred $0.9 million of charges associated with derivative activity related to the Standex Electronics Japan acquisition.

21

Income Taxes

The Company's income tax provision from continuing operations for fiscal year 2019 was $18.4 million, or an effective rate of 28.1% compared to $38.9 million, or an effective rate of 55.4% for fiscal year 2018, and $11.8 million, or an effective rate of 23.2% for the year ended June 30, 2017. Changes in the effective tax rate from period to period may be significant as they depend on many factors including, but not limited to, the amount of the Company's income or loss, the mix of income earned in the U.S. versus in foreign jurisdictions, the effective tax rate in each of the countries in which we earn income, and any one-time tax issues which occur during the period.

The Company's income tax provision from continuing operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 was impacted by the following items: (i) $2.1 million of expenses related to expected foreign withholding taxes on cash repatriation (ii) a tax expense of $0.3 million related to the elimination of the performance based compensation exception for executive compensation under Sec. 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, offset by (iii) a tax benefit of $0.8 million related to the impact of the Sec. 965 toll tax.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, the Company recorded a tax benefit of approximately $0.8 million to its provision for income taxes related to a mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings and considers the toll tax calculation to be complete. 

The provision for fiscal year ending June 30, 2019 was impacted by several law changes implemented by the Act such as the repeal of the Section 199 manufacturing deduction, changes to the calculation for Section 162(m) executive compensation deduction, interest deduction limitation and the Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (GILTI) provision.  As allowed under US GAAP, the Company has elected to treat any taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income under the GILTI provision as a current-period expense when incurred.  The Company will continue to monitor guidance regarding these changes for any impacts that the changes might have on future period financial statements.

The Company's income tax provision from continuing operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 was impacted by the following items: (i) a tax expense of $11.7 million related to the impact of the Sec. 965 toll tax, (ii) a tax expense of $1.3 million related to a revaluation of deferred taxes due to the federal rate reduction, and (iii) a tax expense of $7.8 million related to expected foreign withholding taxes on cash repatriation.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act” or “TCJA”) was passed which, among other things, reduced the federal corporate tax rate to 21.0% effective for taxable years starting on or after January 1, 2018.  For transition year ending June 30, 2018, the Company recorded federal taxes using a blended federal rate of 28.0%.  For the year ending June 30, 2019, the Company recorded federal taxes at a federal rate of 21.0%. 

Capital Expenditures

Capital spending is focused on growth initiatives, cost reduction, and upgrades to extend the capabilities of our capital assets.  In general, we anticipate our capital expenditures over the long term will be approximately 3% to 4% of net sales. 

During 2019, capital expenditures increased to $34.5 million or 4.4% of net sales, as compared to $25.6 million, or 3.3%, of net sales in the prior year.  Capital spending in 2019 included $5.8 million for a new Electronics facility in Cincinnati which replaced a legacy facility sold in fiscal year 2018.  We expect 2020 capital spending to be between $33 million and $34 million which includes $2.0 million allocated to begin construction for a new Electronics facility in Germany to replace a legacy facility sold in fiscal year 2019.

Backlog

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

Net sales for fiscal year 2019 increased by $13.4 million or 9.8% compared to the prior year. Growth was driven by two acquisitions which contributed $19.8 million or 14.5%.  Organic sales were nearly flat as compared to prior year while currency negatively impacted sales by 4.8%.  We expect sales growth in fiscal year 2020 due to an increase in the number of new automotive launches along with the introduction of soft skin and tool finishing offerings throughout our global sales network.

Net sales for fiscal year 2018 increased by $30.3 million or 28.6% compared to the prior year with an organic growth rate of 10.2%.  The Piazza Rosa Group acquisition contributed sales $13.2 million or 12.5%. Sales in our Mold-Tech businesses grew due to launches of new automotive models in the current year. New technologies sales of Architexture, laser, nickel shell, finishing and treatment grew by $17.8 million or 139% during the year.

Income from operations in fiscal year 2019 decreased by $5.6 million, or 19.0%, when compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to an unfavorable geographic mix, lower automotive sales in North America, reduced demand at our higher profit China facilities due to concerns regarding trade conflicts, and the increased costs associated with the integration process following the Tenibac acquisition. Based on a strategic analysis, we have decided to close underperforming sites and reduce administrative headcount. In fiscal 2020, we expect positive results from organic growth, returns from acquisitions and a positive impact from the reorganization efforts. Upon completion, we anticipate that these actions will save $2.7 million on an annual basis by the end of the second quarter in fiscal 2020.

Income from operations in fiscal year 2018 increased by $3.5 million, or 13.3%, when compared to the prior year. While overall operating income improved due to our new product offerings, these offerings required up-front investments which negatively impacted operating income margins for the year.

Net sales in fiscal year 2019 increased $7.8 million, or 4.0%, when compared to the prior year with organic sales growth contributing $2.6 million, or 1.3%. The sales impact of the Agile Magnetics acquisition was $9.3 million and foreign exchange rates unfavorably affected sales by $4.2 million or 2.1%. We anticipate a sales volume decline in the first half of fiscal year 2020 due to customer inventory corrections, trade war impacts, and lower automotive market demand followed by a modest recovery in the second half of the fiscal year.

Net sales in the fiscal year 2018 increased $59.6 million, or 43.6%, when compared to the prior year.  Organic sales growth was $16.6 million, or 12.1%. The sales impact of the Standex Electronics Japan (“SEJ”) reed switch operation, acquired March 31, 2017, as compared to the prior year was $37.1 million. Foreign exchange rates favorably affected sales by $5.9 million for the year.  Organic sales growth was strong in all major geographic areas and all major product lines with particular strength in sensors and reed switches.

Income from operations in the fiscal year 2019 decreased $4.3 million, or 9.4%, when compared to the prior year. The operating income decline was due to government mandated wage increases in our Mexico operation, platinum group metal material increases, acquisition purchase accounting of $0.3 million, and India facility start-up costs, partially offset by cost saving initiatives.

Income from operations in the fiscal year 2018 increased $17.6 million, or 63.3%, when compared to the prior year.  The operating improvements were a result of the acquisition of SEJ reed switch business, along with operating efficiencies, product mix and higher organic sales growth in our base business, and the absence of $2.3 million of purchase accounting expenses from the prior year.

Net sales in the fiscal year 2019 increased $14.5 million or 16.0% when compared to the prior year. Sales distribution by market in 2019 was as follows: 46% aviation, 26% space, 13% oil and gas, 8% defense, 5% medical, and 2% other markets. Aviation sales grew 9.0% from the prior year due to sales on new aircraft and engine platforms. Space market sales increased 13.5% from the prior year driven by higher sales in the manned space segment on new development programs.  Growth in 2019 was also driven by increased sales in the oil and gas and defense markets.  While we anticipate sales growth in fiscal 2020, we expect our first quarter will show a sales decline due to project timing.

Net sales in the fiscal year 2018 increased $0.3 million or 0.3% when compared to the prior year. Sales distribution by market in 2018 was as follows: 50% aviation, 27% space, 11% oil and gas, 5% medical, and 7% other markets. aviation sales grew 14.3% from the prior year due to sales on new aircraft and engine platforms, including the Airbus A320 NEO and Boeing 737 Max platforms. Space market sales decreased 7.9% from the prior year driven by lower sales in the satellite launch vehicle segment, partially offset by an increase in the manned space segment. Defense and oil and gas market sales also declined in fiscal 2018.

Income from operations in fiscal 2019 increased $4.7 million or 71.7% when compared to the prior year. The increase in operating income was driven by higher sales volume, improved manufacturing efficiencies on production programs, and price increases in the Aviation segment, partially offset by an asset impairment charge of $1.2M due to a customer contract termination.  Looking forward, we anticipate improved margins as aviation programs continue to ramp to higher production rates in calendar year 2020.

Income from operations in fiscal 2018 decreased $3.3 million or 33.3% when compared to the prior year. The decrease in operating income was due to delays in major aircraft programs, decreased spending on development programs in the space and aviation markets, and pricing pressure on legacy aircraft parts.

Net sales increased $5.8 million, or 12.0%, when compared to the prior year.  The increase is due to new product introductions during the year and market share gains in the refuse OEM marketplace.  Moving forward we anticipate demand in our end markets to remain positive due to construction and infrastructure projects. We also expect additional market share gains at the OEM level in the refuse market.

Net sales in fiscal year 2018 increased by $7.0 million, or 17.1% compared to the prior year. Sales distribution by channel in 2018 was as follows: 37% dump trailer and truck, 26% refuse, 25% after-market, 5% export, and 7% other markets. The majority of the increase in sales was from strong demand in the refuse and dump markets. Additionally, several new OEM cylinder applications on front-end loading garbage trucks and container handlers were secured during the year.

Income from operations increased $1.5 million, or 20.2%, when compared to the prior year.  The operating income increase was driven by the revenue growth in the refuse market partially offset by higher material costs and higher manufacturing overhead as a result of sales volume.  The group received tariff relief on both rod and telescopic cylinders, but this relief is scheduled to end in the third quarter of fiscal year 2020.  We can not be certain if the tariff relief will be extended by the U.S. government.

Income from operations in fiscal year 2018 increased $0.6 million or 8.8% when compared to the prior year. Operating income margins in fiscal 2018 were impacted by material cost increases, however, we implemented price increases in the latter half of the fiscal year to mitigate some of these material price increases.

Net sales for fiscal year 2019 decreased $20.3 million, or 6.8% when compared to the prior year.  The Refrigeration group experienced a 12.8% sales decline in fiscal year 2019 primarily due to slow market conditions in buying group markets, increased competition in the cabinet market space, and reduced sales to regional retail chains as a result of customer financial constraints. Additionally, pump business sales decreased 8.6% compared to prior year due to a decline in the European espresso and carbonated beverage markets. The sales declines in the Refrigeration and pump businesses were partially offset by a 10.6% sales increase in our Scientific group. The increased volume in the Scientific group was due to increased sales to retail pharmacy customers and national clinical distributors. During June, fire destroyed a third party warehouse leased by the Refrigeration group.  We anticipate that Refrigeration Group sales will be lower in the first half of fiscal year 2020 as we rebuild our finished goods inventory levels in order to meet customer demand. 

Net sales for fiscal year 2018 increased $25.3 million, or 9.3% when compared to the prior year. Organic sales increased $14.2 million or 5.2% while the acquisition of Horizon Scientific contributed $9.5 million or 3.5% and foreign exchange added $1.6 million or 0.6%. Refrigeration Solutions sales increased by 9.4%, which included organic sales increases of 5.2% and acquisition growth of 4.2%. Refrigeration sales increased in the scientific and food service markets while the dealer, direct, and retail food service markets recovered from prior year declines. Specialty Solutions sales increased 9.4% with solid volume from the beverage market and strong growth in merchandising.

Income from operations for fiscal year 2019 decreased $5.4 million, or 19.0%, when compared to the prior year, and operating income margin decreased by 1.2%. Decreased sales volume and manufacturing inefficiencies in our Refrigeration Group locations were the primary cause of the decline in income from operations.

Income from operations for fiscal year 2018 increased $4.5 million, or 19.0%, when compared to the prior year, and operating income margin increased from 8.6% to 9.4%.  The realignment of the Refrigeration plant operations was largely completed in 2018 and drove operating income improvements for the year.

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

Discontinued Operations

In pursuing our business strategy, the Company continues to divest certain businesses and record activities of these businesses as discontinued operations. Results of the Cooking Solutions Group in current and prior periods have been classified as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Financial Statements and excluded from the results from continuing operations.  Activity related to the Cooking Solutions Group and other discontinued operations for twelve months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 is as follows (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2019, our total cash balance was $93.1 million, of which $86.2 million was held outside of the United States.  Due to changes in the U.S. tax law, we began repatriating foreign earnings in fiscal year 2019.  During the year, we returned $51.5 million of our cash previously held outside of the United States.  During fiscal year 2020, we anticipate returning an additional $30 million of foreign cash however, the amount and timing of cash repatriation during 2020 will be dependent upon each business unit’s operational needs including requirements to fund working capital, capital expenditure, and jurisdictional tax payments.  The repatriation of cash balances from certain of our subsidiaries could have adverse tax consequences or be subject to capital controls; however, those balances are generally available without legal restrictions to fund ordinary business operations.

Cash Flow

Net cash provided by continuing operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2019 was $73.2 million compared to net cash provided by continuing operating activities of $60.4 million in the prior year. We generated $78.6 million from income statement activities and used $5.4 million of cash to fund working capital increases. Cash flow used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2019 totaled $159.5 million.  Uses of investing cash consisted primarily of capital expenditures of $34.4 million along with $127.9 million for the acquisition of Tenibac, Agile Magnetics, and GS Engineering. Cash used by financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2019 were $38.2 million and included cash paid for dividends of $9.8 million and stock repurchases of $33.4 million offset by net borrowings of $4.8 million.

Net cash provided by continuing operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2018 was $60.4 million. We generated $68.5 million from income statement activities and used $8.0 million of cash to fund working capital increases. Cash flow used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2018 totaled $32.3 million.  Uses of investing cash consisted primarily of capital expenditures of $25.3 million and $10.4 million for Piazza Rosa and other acquisition activities. These uses of investing cash were partially offset by $2.1 million from proceeds of life insurance and $2.9 million from the net proceeds of the sale of a building in Cincinnati, Ohio. We leased back the Cincinnati, Ohio building and, as a result of the transaction, recorded a $0.7 million deferred gain that will be amortized over the initial operating lease term which expires in May 2019. Cash used by financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2018 were $11.9 million and included net borrowings of $1.3 million, cash paid for dividends of $8.9 million and stock repurchases of $2.7 million.

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

The fair value of the Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plan assets was $186.2 million at June 30, 2019, as compared to $191.0 million as of June 30, 2018.  We participate in two multi-employer pension plans and sponsor six defined benefit plans including two in the U.S. and one in the U.K., Germany, Ireland, and Japan.  The Company’s pension plan is frozen for U.S. employees and participants in the plan ceased accruing future benefits.  Our primary U.S. defined benefit plan is not expected to be 100% funded under ERISA rules at June 30, 2019, and we expect to make mandatory contributions of $4.3 million to the U.S. defined benefit plan in the coming year.  Additionally, we expect to pay $1.1 million to our other defined benefit plans in the U.S. and Europe during fiscal year 2020.

We have evaluated the current and long-term cash requirements of our defined benefit and defined contribution plans as of June 30, 2019 and determined our operating cash flows from continuing operations and available liquidity are expected to be sufficient to cover the required contributions under ERISA and other governing regulations. 

We have an insurance program in place to fund supplemental retirement income benefits for five retired executives.  Current executives and new hires are not eligible for this program.  At June 30, 2019, the underlying policies had a cash surrender value of $18.0 million and are reported net of loans of $8.7 million for which we have the legal right of offset. These amounts are reported net on our balance sheet.

Capital Structure

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, the Company entered into a five-year Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“credit agreement”, or “facility”). The facility has a borrowing limit of $500 million which is an increase of $100 million from the prior facility’s $400 million limit and can be increased by an amount of up to $250 million, in accordance with specified conditions contained in the agreement. The facility also includes a $10 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $35 million sublimit for letters of credit.

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

Funds borrowed under the facility may be used for the repayment of debt, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions (so long as certain conditions, including a specified funded debt to EBITDA leverage ratio is maintained), and other general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has used $7.6 million against the letter of credit sub-facility and had the ability to borrow $253.4 million under the facility based on our current trailing twelve-month EBITDA. The facility contains customary representations, warranties and restrictive covenants, as well as specific financial covenants. The Company’s current financial covenants under the facility are as follows:

Interest Coverage Ratio - The Company is required to maintain a ratio of Earnings Before Interest and Taxes, as Adjusted (“Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Facility”), to interest expense for the trailing twelve months of at least 2.75:1, an improvement over the interest coverage ratio of 3.0:1 permitted under the previous agreement. Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Facility specifically excludes extraordinary and certain other defined items such as cash restructuring and acquisition-related charges up to the lower of $20.0 million or 10% of EBITDA, an increase from the prior agreement’s $7.5 million cap on restructuring and acquisition expenses. The new facility continues to allow unlimited non-cash charges including purchase accounting and goodwill adjustments. At June 30, 2019, the Company’s Interest Coverage Ratio was 7.73:1.

27

Leverage Ratio- The Company’s ratio of funded debt to trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA per the Credit Facility, calculated as Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Facility plus depreciation and amortization, may not exceed 3.5:1. Under certain circumstances in connection with a Material Acquisition (as defined in the Facility), the Facility allows for the leverage ratio to go as high as 4.0:1 for a four-fiscal quarter period. At June 30, 2019, the Company’s Leverage Ratio was 1.28:1.

As of June 30, 2019, we had borrowings under our facility of $198.8 million.  In order to manage our interest rate exposure on these borrowings, we are party to $85.0 million of active floating to fixed rate swaps.  These swaps convert our interest payments from LIBOR to a weighted average rate of 2.11%.  The effective rate of interest for our outstanding borrowings, including the impact of the interest rate swaps, was 3.88%.  Our primary cash requirements in addition to day-to-day operating needs include interest payments, capital expenditures, acquisitions, share repurchases, and dividends. 

Our primary sources of cash for these requirements are cash flows from continuing operations and borrowings under the facility.  We expect that fiscal year 2020 depreciation and amortization expense will be between $25.0 and $26.0 million and $11.0 and $12.0 million, respectively.

The following table sets forth our capitalization at June 30:

	2019		2018
Long-term debt	$	197,610	$	193,772
Less cash and cash equivalents		93,145		109,602
Net debt		104,465		84,170
Stockholders' equity		464,313		450,795
Total capitalization	$	568,778	$	534,965

Stockholders’ equity increased year over year by $13.5 million, primarily as a result of current year net income of $67.9 million offset by $43.3 million of cash returned to shareholders in the form of dividends and stock repurchases and $12.2 million in unrealized pension losses.  The Company's net debt to capital percentage changed to 18.4% for as of June 30, 2019 from 15.7% in the prior year. 

Contractual obligations of the Company as of June 30,2019 are as follows (in thousands):

(1) Estimated interest payments are based upon effective interest rates as of June 30, 2019, and exclude those interest rate swaps which are assets to us. See Item 7A for further discussions surrounding interest rate exposure on our variable rate borrowings.

(2) Post-retirement benefits and pension plan contribution payments represents’ future pension payments to comply with local funding requirements. Our policy is to fund domestic pension liabilities in accordance with the minimum and maximum limits imposed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), federal income tax laws and the funding requirements of the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

At June 30, 2019, we had $10.6 million of non-current liabilities for uncertain tax positions. We are not able to provide a reasonable estimate of the timing of future payments related to these obligations.

Off Balance Sheet Items

At June 30, 2019, and 2018, the Company had standby letters of credit outstanding, primarily for insurance and trade financing purposes, of $7.6 million and $7.9 million, respectively.

We had no other material off balance sheet items at June 30, 2019, other than the operating leases summarized above in the “Contractual obligations” table.

Other Matters

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

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

Defined Benefit Pension Plans – We record expenses related to these plans based upon various actuarial assumptions such as discount rates and assumed rates of returns.  The Company’s pension plan was frozen for substantially all remaining eligible U.S. employees in 2015 and participants in the plan ceased accruing future benefits. 

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

Seasonality – We are a diversified business with generally low levels of seasonality, however our fiscal third quarter is typically the period with the lowest level of activity.

Employee Relations – The Company has labor agreements with several union locals in the United States and several European employees belong to European trade unions. 

Critical Accounting Policies

The Consolidated Financial Statements include accounts of the Company and all of our subsidiaries.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.  Although, we believe that materially different amounts would not be reported due to the accounting policies described below, the application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.  We have listed a number of accounting policies which we believe to be the most critical. 

Revenue Recognition – Effective July 1, 2018, the Company adopted accounting standard ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (ASC 606) using the modified retrospective method to contracts that were not completed as of June 30, 2018. We recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, whereby the cumulative impact of all prior periods is recorded in retained earnings or other impacted balance sheet line items upon adoption. The comparative information has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC 605. The impact on the Company’s consolidated income statements, balance sheets, equity or cash flows as of the adoption date as a result of applying ASC 606 have been reflected within those respective financial statements. The Company’s accounting policy has been updated to align with ASC 606. 

The adoption of ASC 606 represents a change in accounting principle that provides enhanced revenue recognition disclosures. Revenue is recognized when the control of the promised goods or services are transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes all revenues on a gross basis based on consideration of the criteria set forth in ASC Topic 606-10-55, Principal versus Agent Considerations.

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

29

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

Collectability of Accounts Receivable – Accounts Receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future.  Our estimate for the allowance for doubtful accounts related to trade receivables includes evaluation of specific accounts where we have information that the customer may have an inability to meet its financial obligation together with a general provision for unknown but existing doubtful accounts. 

Realizability of Inventories – Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market.  The Company regularly reviews inventory values on hand using specific aging categories, and records a provision for obsolete and excess inventory based on historical usage and estimated future usage.  As actual future demand or market conditions may vary from those projected by management, adjustments to inventory valuations may be required.

Realization of Goodwill – Goodwill and certain indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset may be less than its carrying amount of the asset.  The Company’s annual test for impairment is performed using a May 31st measurement date.

We have identified our reporting units for impairment testing as our nine operating segments, which are aggregated into our five reporting segments as disclosed in Note 17 – Industry Segment Information. 

The test for impairment is currently a two-step process.  The first step compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit to its estimated fair value (Step 1).  To the extent that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, a second step is performed, wherein the reporting unit’s carrying value is compared to the implied fair value (Step 2). To the extent that the carrying value exceeds the implied fair value, impairment exists and must be recognized. During fiscal year 2020, the company will adopt ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by, among other things, eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss will be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

As quoted market prices are not available for the Company’s reporting units, the fair value of the reporting units is determined using a discounted cash flow model (income approach).  This method uses various assumptions that are specific to each individual reporting unit in order to determine the fair value.  In addition, the Company compares the estimated aggregate fair value of its reporting units to its overall market capitalization.

Our annual impairment testing at each reporting unit relied on assumptions surrounding general market conditions, short-term growth rates, a terminal growth rate of 2.5%, and detailed management forecasts of future cash flows prepared by the relevant reporting unit.  Fair values were determined primarily by discounting estimated future cash flows at a weighted average cost of capital of 9.66%.  During our annual impairment testing, we evaluated the sensitivity of our most critical assumption, the discount rate, and determined that a 200 basis point change in the discount rate selected would not have impacted the test results.  Additionally, the Company could reduce the terminal growth rate from its current 2.5% to 1.0% and the fair value of all reporting units would still exceed their carrying value.

While we believe that our estimates of future cash flows are reasonable, changes in assumptions could significantly affect our valuations and result in impairments in the future.  The most significant assumption involved in the Company’s determination of fair value is the cash flow projections of each reporting unit. 

As a result of our annual assessment, the Company determined that the fair value of the reporting units substantially exceeded their respective carrying values.  Therefore, no impairment charges were recorded in connection with our annual assessment during 2019. 

30

Cost of Employee Benefit Plans – We provide a range of benefits to certain retirees, including pensions and some postretirement benefits.  We record expenses relating to these plans based upon various actuarial assumptions such as discount rates, assumed rates of return, compensation increases and turnover rates.  The expected return on plan assets assumption of 7.0% in the U.S. is based on our expectation of the long-term average rate of return on assets in the pension funds and is reflective of the current and projected asset mix of the funds and considers the historical returns earned on the funds.  We have analyzed the rates of return on assets used and determined that these rates are reasonable based on the plans’ historical performance relative to the overall markets as well as our current expectations for long-term rates of returns for our pension assets.  The U.S. discount rate of 3.7% reflects the current rate at which pension liabilities could be effectively settled at the end of the year.  The discount rate is determined by matching our expected benefit payments from a stream of AA- or higher bonds available in the marketplace, adjusted to eliminate the effects of call provisions.  We review our actuarial assumptions, including discount rate and expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, on at least an annual basis and make modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when appropriate.  Based on information provided by our actuaries and other relevant sources, we believe that our assumptions are reasonable.

The cost of employee benefit plans includes the selection of assumptions noted above.  A twenty-five basis point change in the U.S. expected return on plan assets assumptions, holding our discount rate and other assumptions constant, would increase or decrease pension expense by approximately $0.5 million per year.  A twenty-five basis point change in our discount rate, holding all other assumptions constant, would have no impact on 2019 pension expense as changes to amortization of net losses would be offset by changes to interest cost.  In future years, the impact of discount rate changes could yield different sensitivities.  See the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding pension plans.

Business Combinations - The accounting for business combinations requires estimates and judgments as to expectations for future cash flows of the acquired business and the allocation of those cash flows to identifiable intangible assets in determining the estimated fair values for assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, are based on management’s estimates and assumptions, as well as other information compiled by management, including valuations that utilize customary valuation procedures and techniques. If the actual results differ from the estimates and judgments used in these fair values, the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements could result in a possible impairment of the intangible assets and goodwill, or require acceleration of the amortization expense of finite-lived intangible assets.

Allocations of the purchase price for acquisitions are based on estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired and are subject to adjustment upon finalization of the purchase price allocation. During this measurement period, the Company will adjust assets or liabilities if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have resulted in the recognition of those assets and liabilities as of that date.  All changes that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments are included in current period earnings.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 1. Summary of Accounting Policies” for information regarding the effect of recently issued accounting pronouncements on our consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, cash flows, and notes for the year ended June 30, 2019.

Item 7A.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Risk Management

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

31

Exchange Risk

We are exposed to both transactional risk and translation risk associated with exchange rates.  The transactional risk is mitigated, in large part, by natural hedges developed with locally denominated debt service on intercompany accounts.  We also mitigate certain of our foreign currency exchange rate risks by entering into forward foreign currency contracts from time to time.  The contracts are used as a hedge against anticipated foreign cash flows, such as loan payments, customer remittances, and materials purchases, and are not used for trading or speculative purposes.  The fair values of the forward foreign currency exchange contracts are sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, as an adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates from market rates would decrease the fair value of the contracts.  However, any such losses or gains would generally be offset by corresponding gains and losses, respectively, on the related hedged asset or liability.  At June 30, 2019 and 2018, the fair value, in the aggregate, of the Company’s open foreign exchange contracts was a liability of $3.1 million and $2.8 million respectively. 

Our primary translation risk is with the Euro, British Pound Sterling, Peso, Japanese Yen and Chinese Yuan.  A hypothetical 10% appreciation or depreciation of the value of any these foreign currencies to the U.S. Dollar at June 30, 2019, would not result in a material change in our operations, financial position, or cash flows.  We hedge our most significant foreign currency translation risks primarily through cross currency swaps and other instruments, as appropriate.

Interest Rate

The Company’s effective rate on variable-rate borrowings under the revolving credit agreement was 3.88% and 3.29% at June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.  Our interest rate exposure is limited primarily to interest rate changes on our variable rate borrowings.  From time to time, we will use interest rate swap agreements to modify our exposure to interest rate movements.  At June 30, 2019, we have $85.0 million of active floating to fixed rate swaps with terms ranging from one to four years.  These swaps convert our interest payments from LIBOR to a weighted average rate of 2.11%.  At June 30, 2019 and 2018, the fair value, in the aggregate, of the Company’s interest rate swaps was a liability of $1.4 million and an asset of $1.3 million respectively. A 25 basis point increase in interest rates would increase our annual interest expense by $0.3 million. 

Concentration of Credit Risk

We have a diversified customer base.  As such, the risk associated with concentration of credit risk is inherently minimized.  As of June 30, 2019, no one customer accounted for more than 5% of our consolidated outstanding receivables or of our sales.

Commodity Prices

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

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

Standex International Corporation and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Summary of Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

Standex International Corporation (“Standex” or the “Company”) is a diversified manufacturing company with operations in the United States, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Standex International Corporation and its subsidiaries and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and for the period then ended. Estimates are based on historical experience, actuarial estimates, current conditions and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities when they are not readily apparent from other sources. These estimates assist in the identification and assessment of the accounting treatment necessary with respect to commitments and contingencies. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. At June 30, 2019 and 2018 the Company’s cash was comprised solely of cash on deposit.

Trading Securities

The Company purchases investments for its non-qualified defined contribution plan for employees who exceed certain thresholds under our traditional 401(k) plan. These investments are classified as trading and reported at fair value. The investments generally consist of mutual funds, are included in other non-current assets and amounted to $2.4 million at June 30, 2019 and $2.4 million at June 30, 2018 gains and losses on these investments are recorded as other non-operating income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Accounts Receivable Allowances

The Company has provided an allowance for doubtful accounts reserve which represents the best estimate of probable loss inherent in the Company’s account receivables portfolio. This estimate is derived from the Company’s knowledge of its end markets, customer base, products, and historical experience.

The changes in the allowances for uncollectible accounts during 2019, 2018, and 2017 were as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018			2017
Balance at beginning of year	$	2,184		$	1,571		$	1,363
Acquisitions and other		66			(169	)		52
Provision charged to expense		(267	)		783			316
Write-offs, net of recoveries		(532	)		(1	)		(160	)
Balance at end of year	$	1,451		$	2,184		$	1,571

38

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of (first-in, first-out) cost or market. Inventory quantities on hand are reviewed regularly, and provisions are made for obsolete, slow moving, and non-saleable inventory, based primarily on management’s forecast of customer demand for those products in inventory.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets that are used in operations, excluding goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recognition and measurement of a potential impairment loss is performed on assets grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level where identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. An impairment loss is the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) exceeds its estimated fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending upon the nature of the assets.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are reported at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on assets over their estimated useful lives, generally using the straight-line method. Lives for property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Buildings (years)	40	to	50
Leasehold improvements	Lesser of useful life or term, unless renewals are deemed to be reasonably assured
Machinery and equipment (years)	8	to	15
Furniture and Fixtures (years)	3	to	10
Computer hardware and software (years)	3	to	7

Routine maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Major improvements, including those made to leased facilities, are capitalized.

Amortization of computer hardware and software of $1.4 million, $1.2 million, and $0.5 million is included as a component of depreciation expense for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively.

Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets

All business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets with indefinite lives, are not amortized, but are reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Identifiable intangible assets that are not deemed to have indefinite lives are amortized over the following useful lives:

Customer relationships (years)	5	to	15
Patents (years)	12
Non-compete agreements (years)	5
Other (years)	10
Developed technology (years)	10	to	20
Trade names	Indefinite life

See discussion of the Company’s assessment of impairment in Note 6 – Goodwill and Note 7 – Intangible Assets.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

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

39

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

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. The Company’s deferred compensation plan assets consist of shares in various mutual funds (for the deferred compensation plan, investments are participant-directed) which invest in a broad portfolio of debt and equity securities. These assets are valued based on publicly quoted market prices for the funds’ shares as of the balance sheet dates. For pension assets (see Note 16 – Employee Benefit Plans), securities are valued based on quoted market prices for securities held directly by the trust.

Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices in an active market, that are observable either directly or indirectly through correlation with market data. For foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps, the Company values the instruments based on the market price of instruments with similar terms, which are based on spot and forward rates as of the balance sheet dates. For pension assets held in commingled funds (see Note 16 – Employee Benefit Plans), the Company values investments based on the net asset value of the funds, which are derived from the quoted market prices of the underlying fund holdings. The Company has considered the creditworthiness of counterparties in valuing all assets and liabilities.

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

We did not have any transfers of assets and liabilities among levels of the fair value measurement hierarchy during the years ended June 30, 2019 or 2018.

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

The fair values of our financial instruments at June 30, 2019 and 2018 were (in thousands):

	2019
	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Financial Assets
Marketable securities - deferred compensation plan	$	2,354	$	2,354	$	-	$	-

Contingent acquisition payments(a)		7,535		-		-		7,535

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

Our financial liabilities based upon Level 3 inputs include contingent consideration arrangements relating to our acquisition of Horizon Scientific or Piazza Rosa. We are contractually obligated to pay contingent consideration payments to the Sellers of these businesses based on the achievement of certain criteria.

40

Contingent consideration payable to the Horizon seller is based on continued employment of the seller on the second and third anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition. Contingent acquisition payment liabilities are scheduled to be paid in periods through fiscal year 2020. As of June 30, 2019 we could be required to pay up to $5.6 million for contingent consideration arrangements if specific criteria are achieved.

Contingent consideration payable to the Piazza Rosa sellers is based on the achievement of certain revenue targets of each of the first three years following the acquisition. Contingent acquisition payments are payable in euros and can be paid in periods through fiscal year 2021. As of June 30, 2019 we could be required to pay up to $1.7 million for contingent consideration arrangements if the revenue targets are met.

We have determined the fair value of the liabilities for the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with future payments was based on several factors, the most significant of which are continued employment of the seller and the risk-adjusted discount rate for the fair value measurement. As of June 30, 2019 the range of outcomes nor the assumptions used to develop the estimates had changed.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company is subject to credit risk through trade receivables. Concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables is minimized because of the diversification of our operations, as well as our large customer base and our geographical dispersion. No individual customer accounts for more than 5% of revenues or accounts receivable in the periods presented.

Revenue Recognition

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

Cost of Goods Sold and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

The Company includes expenses in either cost of goods sold or selling, general and administrative categories based upon the natural classification of the expenses. Cost of goods sold includes expenses associated with the acquisition, inspection, manufacturing and receiving of materials for use in the manufacturing process. These costs include inbound freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, internal transfer costs as well as depreciation, amortization, wages, benefits and other costs that are incurred directly or indirectly to support the manufacturing process. Selling, general and administrative includes expenses associated with the distribution of our products, sales effort, administration costs and other costs that are not incurred to support the manufacturing process. The Company records distribution costs associated with the sale of inventory as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. These expenses include warehousing costs, outbound freight charges and costs associated with salaried distribution personnel. Our gross profit margins may not be comparable to those of other entities due to different classifications of costs and expenses. 

Our total advertising expenses, which are classified under selling, general, and administrative expenses are primarily related to trade shows, and totaled $3.6 million, $3.4 million, and $3.8 million for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively.

41

Research and Development

Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred. Total research and development costs, which are classified under selling, general, and administrative expenses, were $6.6 million, $4.5 million, and $4.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively.

Warranties

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

The changes in continuing operations warranty reserve, which are recorded as accrued liabilities, during 2019, 2018, and 2017 were as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018			2017
Balance at beginning of year	$	4,966		$	4,667		$	4,335
Acquisitions and other charges		(85	)		(138	)		302
Warranty expense		5,016			6,248			5,052
Warranty claims		(4,619	)		(5,811	)		(5,022	)
Balance at end of year	$	5,278		$	4,966		$	4,667

The decrease in warranty expense during 2019 compared to 2018 is primarily due to better warranty claim experience in the Standex Refrigeration Group.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

Restricted stock awards, including performance based awards, generally vest over a three-year period. Compensation expense associated with these awards is recorded based on their grant-date fair value and is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Compensation cost for an award with a performance condition is based on the probable outcome of that performance condition. The stated vesting period is considered non-substantive for retirement eligible participants. Accordingly, the Company recognizes any remaining unrecognized compensation expense upon participant reaching retirement eligibility.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of our non-U.S. operations is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. Dollars on a monthly basis using period-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses of these operations are translated using monthly average exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustment is reported as a component of comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations and were not material for any period presented.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company recognizes all derivatives on its balance sheet at fair value.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are periodically used to limit the impact of currency fluctuations on certain anticipated foreign cash flows, such as foreign purchases of materials and loan payments from subsidiaries. The Company enters into such contracts for hedging purposes only. The Company has designated certain of these currency contracts as hedges, and changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with these contracts will be reported in net income. 

The Company also uses interest rate swaps to manage exposure to interest rates on the Company’s variable rate indebtedness. The Company values the swaps based on contract prices in the derivatives market for similar instruments. The Company has designated its interest rate swap agreements, including any that may be forward-dated, as cash flow hedges, and changes in the fair value of the swaps are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with the swaps will be reported by the Company in interest expense.

The Company does not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes.

Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act” or “TCJA”) was passed which, among other things, reduces the federal corporate tax rate to 21.0% effective for taxable years starting on or after January 1, 2018.  For transition year ending June 30, 2018, the Company recorded federal taxes using a blended federal rate of 28.0%.  For the year ending June 30, 2019, the Company recorded federal taxes using a federal rate of 21.0%. 

The provision for fiscal year ending June 30, 2019 was impacted by several law changes implemented by the Act such as the repeal of the Section 199 manufacturing deduction, changes to the calculation for Section 162(m) executive compensation deduction, interest deduction limitation and Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (GILTI).  As allowed under US GAAP, the Company has elected to treat any taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income under the GILTI provision as a current-period expense when incurred.  The Company will continue to monitor guidance regarding these changes and their impact on the financial statements in later periods.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize most lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements.” The guidance requires a modified retrospective adoption and this update provides for an optional transition method, which allows for the application of the standard as of the adoption date with no restatement of prior periods. We plan to use this option in utilizing the effective date as our date of initial application. Consequently, financial information will not be updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods prior to July 1, 2019.

The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company has elected to apply the ‘package of practical expedients’ which allow us to not reassess i) whether existing or expired arrangements contain a lease, ii) the lease classification of existing or expired leases, or iii) whether previous initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under the new lease standard. In preparation for adoption of the standard, the Company is implementing a software solution and enhancing internal controls to enable the preparation of financial information including the assessment of the impact of the standard. While we are still assessing the impacts of the new standard, we currently expect the adoption to result in the recognition of additional lease liabilities of approximately $40 million to $45 million, and right-of-use assets of approximately $40 million to $45 million as of July 1, 2019 on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as it relates to the Company’s operating leases. The Company does not currently expect that the new standard will have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated statement of operations or cash flows.

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

43

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Targeting Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and to make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of hedge accounting guidance.  The new guidance requires additional disclosures including cumulative basis adjustments for fair value hedges and the effect of hedging on individual income statement line items along with providing new alternatives for applying hedge accounting to additional hedging strategies and measuring the hedged item in fair value hedges of interest rate risk.  This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (fiscal 2020 for the Company), and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The amendment is to be applied prospectively.  Given the improvements made to the application of hedge accounting under the guidance, the Company decided to early adopt the ASU during the second quarter of fiscal year 2019.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in ASU-08 simplify several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions resulting from expanding the scope of Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods with those reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in ASU-13 remove, modify and add various disclosure requirements around the topic in order to clarify and improve the cost-benefit nature of disclosures. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods with those reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted. The company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20). The amendments in ASU-14 remove, modify and add various disclosure requirements around the topic in order to clarify and improve the cost-benefit nature of disclosures. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods with those reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2020 with early adoption permitted. The amendments must be applied on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. The company is currently evaluating the impacts the adoption of this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). The amendments in ASU-15 align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs in a service contract hosting arrangement with those of developing or obtaining internal-use software. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods with those reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted. The company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. Acquisitions

The Company’s recent acquisitions are strategically significant to the future growth prospects of the Company.  At the time of the acquisition and June 30, 2019, the Company evaluated the significance of each acquisition on a standalone basis and in aggregate, considering both qualitative and quantitative factors.

GS Engineering

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

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

Intangible assets of $8.9 million are preliminarily recorded, consisting of $5.6 million for developed technology to be amortized over a period of 15 years, $0.9 million for indefinite lived trademarks, and $2.4 million of customer relationships to be amortized over 13 years. The Company’s assigned fair values are preliminary as of June 30, 2019 until reviewed closing financial statements, including U.S. 338(h)10 elections, can be prepared by an independent accountant and agreed to by both parties as required by the stock purchase agreement.  The goodwill of $18.0 million created by the transaction is deductible for income tax purposes.

During August of fiscal year 2019, the Company acquired Tenibac-Graphion Inc. (“Tenibac”).  The Michigan based privately held company is a provider of chemical and laser texturing services for the automotive, medical, packaging, and consumer products markets.  The Company has included the results of Tenibac in its Engraving segment in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company paid $57.3 million in cash for all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Tenibac.  The purchase price was allocated to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values on the closing date.  Goodwill recorded from this transaction is attributable to the complimentary services that the combined business can now offer to customers, through increased responsiveness to customer demands, and providing innovative approaches to solving customer needs by offering a full line of mold and tool services to customers.

Piazza Rosa Group

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

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

The purchase price was allocated to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values on the closing date.  Goodwill recorded from this transaction is attributable to potential revenue increases from the combined competencies with Standex Engraving’s worldwide presence and Piazza Rosa Group’s texturizing capabilities.  The combined companies create a global tool finishing service leader and open additional opportunities in the broader surface engineering market.

Intangible assets of $4.1 million were preliminarily recorded, consisting of $2.3 million of customer relationships to be amortized over a period of eight years, $1.6 million for trademarks, and $0.2 million of other intangibles assets.  The Company finalized its purchase accounting for this acquisition in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 and reduced the identifiable intangible asset estimate by $0.6 million at that time.  The goodwill of $7.1 million created by the transaction is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Acquisition-Related Costs

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

Deferred compensation costs relate to payments due to the Horizon Scientific seller of $2.8 million on the second anniversary and $5.6 million on the third anniversary of the closing date of the purchase.  For each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded deferred compensation costs of $2.8 million related to estimated deferred compensation earned by the Horizon Scientific seller to date.  The payments are contingent on the seller remaining an employee of the Company, with limited exceptions, at each anniversary date.

3. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
 

Effective July 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard, ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASC 606) using the modified retrospective method to contracts that were not completed as of June 30, 2018. We recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, whereby the cumulative impact of all prior periods is recorded in retained earnings or other impacted balance sheet line items upon adoption. The comparative information has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC 605. The impact on the Company’s consolidated income statements, balance sheets, equity or cash flows as of the adoption date as a result of applying ASC 606 have been reflected within those respective financial statements.

Under the Company’s historical accounting policies, non-developmental long-term contracts were recognized when the goods were transferred to the customer.  Upon adoption, contracts for highly customized customer products that have no alternative use and in which the contract specifies the Company has a right to payment for its costs, plus a reasonable margin met the requirements for recognition over time under ASC 606.  Additionally, under the Company’s historical accounting policies, the Food Service Equipment segment estimated the rebate accrual based on a volume-related method for rebates.  Under ASC 606, the Company now calculates the rebate accrual on anticipated sales for the rebate period, rather than measurement of actual achievement of specific tiers.

Upon adoption, we recognized a reduction to retained earnings of $1.0 million which is comprised of (i) a net change for Engineering Technologies of $0.7 million in revenues offset by cost of sales increase of $0.6 million; and (ii) a $1.5 million adjustment for accrued rebates in the Food Service Equipment segment.  The details of the adjustments to retained earnings upon adoption on June 30, 2018 as well as the effects on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018, as if ASC 606 had been adopted in our 2018 fiscal year are as follows:

Contract Balances

Contract assets represent sales recognized in excess of billings related to work completed but not yet shipped for which revenue is recognized over time. Contract assets are recorded as accounts receivable.

Contract liabilities are customer deposits for which revenue has not been recognized.  Current contract liabilities are recorded as accrued expenses.

The following table provides information about contract assets and liability balances as of June 30, 2019 (in thousands):

	Balance at Beginning of Period		Additions		Deductions		Balance at End of Period
Year ended June 30, 2019
Contract assets:
Prepaid and other current assets		5,904		24,380		21,866		8,418
Contract liabilities:
Customer deposits		2,552		6,336		7,530		1,358

During the year ended June 30, 2019, we recognized the following revenue as a result of changes in the contract liability balances (in thousands):

	Year ended
Revenue recognized in the period from:	June 30, 2019
Amounts included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period	$	2,552

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections results in billed receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

When consideration is received from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of a contract, a contract liability is recorded.  Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue after control of the goods and services are transferred to the customer and all revenue recognition criteria have been met.

Depreciation expense for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017 totaled $19.0 million, $17.4 million, and $13.4 million, respectively.

6. Goodwill

Goodwill and certain indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset may be less than its carrying amount. The Company’s annual test for impairment is performed using a May 31st measurement date.

The Company has identified our reporting units for impairment testing as its nine operating segments, which are aggregated into five reporting segments as disclosed in Note 18 – Industry Segment Information. 

As quoted market prices are not available for the Company’s reporting units, the fair value of the reporting units is determined using a discounted cash flow model (income approach).  This method uses various assumptions that are specific to each individual reporting unit in order to determine the fair value. In addition, the Company compares the estimated aggregate fair value of its reporting units to its overall market capitalization.

While the Company believes that estimates of future cash flows are reasonable, changes in assumptions could significantly affect valuations and result in impairments in the future.  The most significant assumption involved in the Company’s determination of fair value is the cash flow projections of each reporting unit.  If the estimates of future cash flows for each reporting unit may be insufficient to support the carrying value of the reporting units, the Company will reassess its conclusions related to fair value and the recoverability of goodwill. Consistent with business practices and our strategic alignment we realigned our Nor-lake and Scientific reporting units during April of 2019. As a result, we re-allocated goodwill from the Nor-lake reporting unit to the Scientific reporting unit and performed an impairment test as of April 30, 2019 on both the old reporting unit structure as well as under the new reporting unit structure, no impairment was indicated in either test. 

We completed our annual impairment testing as of May 31, 2019, and determined that the fair value of each of its reporting units substantially exceeded each unit’s respective carrying value, therefore, no impairment charges were recorded in connection with our testing and assessment during 2019 and 2018.

 Bank Credit Agreements

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Facility”, or “facility”).  This five-year Credit Facility expires in December 2023 and has a borrowing limit of $500 million, which can be increased by an amount of up to $250 million, in accordance with specified conditions contained in the agreement.  The facility also includes a $10 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $35 million sublimit for letters of credit.  The facility amends and restates a previously existing $400 million revolving credit agreement, which was scheduled to expire in December 2019.

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

Funds borrowed under the facility may be used for the repayment of debt, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions (so long as certain conditions, including a specified funded debt to EBITDA leverage ratio is maintained), and other general corporate purposes.  As of June 30, 2019, the Company had the ability to borrow $253.4 million under the facility based on our current EBITDA.  The facility contains customary representations, warranties and restrictive covenants, as well as specific financial covenants which the Company was compliant with as of June 30, 2019.  The Company’s current financial covenants under the facility are as follows:

Interest Coverage Ratio - The Company is required to maintain a ratio of Earnings Before Interest and Taxes, as Adjusted (“Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Agreement”), to interest expense for the trailing twelve months of at least 2.75:1.  Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Agreement specifically excludes extraordinary and certain other defined items such as cash restructuring and acquisition-related charges up to the lower of $20 million or 10% of EBITDA, an increase from the prior agreement’s $7.5 million cap on restructuring expenses. The new facility continues to allow unlimited non-cash charges including purchase accounting and goodwill adjustments.  At June 30, 2019, the Company’s Interest Coverage Ratio was 7.73:1.    

Leverage Ratio - The Company’s ratio of funded debt to trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA per the credit agreement, calculated as Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Agreement plus depreciation and amortization, may not exceed 3.5:1. Under certain circumstances in connection with a Material Acquisitions (as defined in the Facility), the Facility allows for the leverage ratio to go as high as 4.0:1 for a four-fiscal quarter period. At June 30, 2019 the Company’s Leverage Ratio was 1.28:1.

As of June 30, 2019, we had borrowings under our facility of $198.8 million and the effective rate of interest for outstanding borrowings under the facility was 3.88%. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, we collected $106.9 million in connection with the sale of our Cooking Solutions Group and substantially all of these proceeds were used to repay borrowings under our facility. Our primary cash requirements in addition to day-to-day operating needs include interest payments, capital expenditures, and dividends.  Our primary sources of cash for these requirements are cash flows from continuing operations and borrowings under the facility. 

In order to manage our interest rate exposure, we are party to $85.0 million of active floating to fixed rate swaps.  These swaps convert our interest payments from LIBOR to a weighted average rate of 2.11%.

Other Long-Term Borrowings

At June 30, 2019, and 2018, the Company had standby letter of credit sub-facility outstanding, primarily for insurance and trade financing purposes of $7.6 million and $7.9 million, respectively

9. Accrued LIABILITIES

10. Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest Rate Swaps

In order to manage our interest rate exposure, we are party to $85.0 million of active floating to fixed rate swaps. These swaps convert our interest payments from LIBOR to a weighted average rate of 2.11% at June 30, 2019.

The fair value of the swaps recognized in accrued liabilities and in other comprehensive income (loss) at June 30, 2019 and 2018 is as follows (in thousands):

The Company reported no losses for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017, as a result of hedge ineffectiveness. Future changes in these swap arrangements, including termination of the agreements, may result in a reclassification of any gain or loss reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings as an adjustment to interest expense.  Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to these instruments is being amortized into interest expense concurrent with the hedged exposure.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are used to limit the impact of currency fluctuations on certain anticipated foreign cash flows, such as foreign purchases of materials and loan payments between subsidiaries.  The Company enters into such contracts for hedging purposes only.  The Company has designated certain of these currency contracts as hedges, and changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings.  Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with these contracts will be reported in net income.  At June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company had outstanding forward contracts related to hedges of intercompany loans with net unrealized gain / (losses) of $3.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively, which approximate the unrealized gains or losses on the related loans.  The contracts have maturity dates ranging from 2019-2023, which correspond to the related intercompany loans.  The notional amounts of these instruments, by currency in thousands, are as follows:

11. Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act” or “TCJA”) was passed which, among other things, reduces the federal corporate tax rate to 21.0% effective for taxable years starting on or after January 1, 2018.  For transition year ending June 30, 2018, the Company recorded federal taxes using a federal rate of 28.0%.  For the year ending June 30, 2019, the Company recorded federal taxes using a blended federal rate of 21.0%. 

During the quarter ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded a tax benefit of approximately $0.8 million to its provision for income taxes related to a mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings and considered the toll tax calculation to be complete. 

The provision for fiscal year ending June 30, 2019 was impacted by several law changes implemented by the Act such as the repeal of the Section 199 manufacturing deduction, changes to the calculation for Section 162(m) executive compensation deduction, interest deduction limitation and Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (GILTI).  As allowed under US GAAP, the Company has elected to treat any taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income under the GILTI provision as a current-period expense when incurred.  The Company will continue to monitor guidance regarding these changes and their impact on the financial statements in later periods.

U.S. tax law allows a one-hundred percent dividend received deduction for foreign dividends and the Company has begun to bring back cash from foreign subsidiaries.  However, the permanent reinvestment assertion must still be assessed and made regarding potential liabilities for foreign withholding taxes.  As of June 30, 2019, the Company maintained the assessment that previously undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries no longer meet the requirements for indefinite reinvestment under applicable accounting guidance.  Therefore, the Company recognized deferred tax liabilities of approximately $2.1 million that relate to withholding taxes on the current earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries.  It is expected deferred tax liabilities will continue to be recorded on current earnings in future periods from these subsidiaries.  The Company maintains the permanent reinvestment assertion on earnings in certain foreign jurisdictions.  If repatriated, these earnings would generate a tax liability of approximately $1.8 million

The components of income from continuing operations before income taxes are as follows (in thousands):

	2019		2018		2017
U.S. Operations	$	5,434	$	937	$	5,641
Non-U.S. Operations		60,179		69,310		45,318
Total	$	65,613	$	70,247	$	50,959

The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Deferred income taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial and tax bases of assets and liabilities given the provisions of the enacted tax laws.  The components of the provision for income taxes on continuing operations (in thousands) were as shown below:

	2019			2018		2017
Current:
Federal	$	432		$	9,505	$	(1,058	)

A reconciliation from the U.S. Federal income tax rate on continuing operations to the total tax provision is as follows:

	2019			2018			2017
Provision at statutory tax rate		21.0	%		28.0	%		35.0	%
State taxes		0.5	%		1.5	%		(0.4	%)
Impact of foreign operations		5.0	%		(0.6	%)		(9.8	%)
Federal tax credits		(1.5	%)		(1.4	%)		(1.6	%)
Tax Reform		(1.3	%)		18.3	%		0.0	%
Cash repatriation		3.3	%		10.5	%		0.0	%
SubF/GILTI		0.4	%		0.0	%		0.0	%
Other		0.7	%		(0.9	%)		(0.1	%)
Effective income tax provision		28.1	%		55.4	%		23.1	%

Changes in the effective tax rates from period to period may be significant as they depend on many factors including, but not limited to, size of the Company’s income or loss and any one-time activities occurring during the period.

Due to the effective date of the Act’s rate reduction on our fiscal year, the Company recorded a blended statutory rate for the year ended June 30, 2018 and used a 21% rate for the year ended June 30, 2019. 

The Company's income tax provision from continuing operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 was impacted by the following items: (i) $2.1 million of expenses related to expected foreign withholding taxes on cash repatriation (ii) a tax expense of $0.3 million related to the elimination of the performance based compensation exception for executive compensation under Sec. 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, offset by (iii) a tax benefit of $0.8 million related to the impact of the Sec. 965 toll tax.

The Company's income tax provision from continuing operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 was impacted by the following items: (i) a tax provision related to the impact of the Sec. 965 toll tax of $11.7 million, (ii) a tax provision related to a revaluation of deferred taxes due to the federal rate reduction of $1.3 million, and (iii) a tax provision related to expected foreign withholding taxes on cash repatriation of $7.8 million.

The Company's income tax provision from continuing operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 was impacted by the following items: (i) a benefit of $0.6 million related to the R&D tax credit, and (ii) a benefit of $5.3 million due to the mix of income earned in jurisdictions with beneficial tax rates.

Significant components of the Company’s deferred income taxes are as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018
Deferred tax liabilities:
Depreciation and amortization	$	(35,420	)	$	(39,775	)
Withholding Taxes		(5,606	)		(7,833	)
Total deferred tax liability	$	(41,026	)	$	(47,608	)
Deferred tax assets:
Accrued compensation	$	2,280		$	2,657
Accrued expenses and reserves		3,967			4,808
Pension		18,228			13,522
Inventory		927			1,613
Other		355			452
Net operating loss and credit carry forwards		17,939			8,668
Total deferred tax asset	$	43,696		$	31,720
Less: Valuation allowance		(11,354	)		(3,482	)
Net deferred tax asset (liability)	$	(8,684	)	$	(19,370	)

The Company estimates the degree to which deferred tax assets, including net operating loss and credit carry forwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction and provides a valuation allowance for tax assets and loss carry forwards that it believes will more likely than not go unrealized.  The valuation allowance at June 30, 2019 applies to state and foreign loss carry forwards, which management has concluded that it is more likely than not that these tax benefits will not be realized.  The increase (decrease) in the valuation allowance from the prior year was due to the current year activity in those same state and foreign loss jurisdictions.

57

In addition, the sale of the Cooking Solutions Group in the fiscal year generated a significant capital loss for tax purposes due to a higher tax basis in the stock than book basis.  As of June 30, 2019, the Company expects that it is more likely than not that the majority of this loss will not be realizable in future years.  As such, the valuation allowance increased by $6.3 million. 

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had gross state net operating loss ("NOL") and credit carry forwards of approximately $68.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively, which may be available to offset future state income tax liabilities and expire at various dates from 2019 through 2038.  In addition, the Company had foreign NOL carry forwards of approximately $3.8 million, $2.8 million of which carry forward indefinitely and $1.0 million that carry forward for 10 years.

Under ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement.  Accordingly, the we recorded discrete income tax benefits in the consolidated statements of income of $0.2 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, for excess tax benefits related to equity compensation.

The total provision (benefit) for income taxes included in the consolidated financial statements was as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018		2017
Continuing operations	$	18,424		$	38,904	$	11,822
Discontinued operations		(2,189	)		1,701		3,506
Total Provision	$	16,235		$	40,605	$	15,328

The tax benefit for discontinued operations relates mostly to the write-off of deferred tax liabilities from the sale of the Cooking Solutions Group.

The changes in the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits during 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018		2017
Beginning Balance	$	3,003		$	2,991	$	2,978
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year		4			12		12
Additions for tax positions of prior years		8,281			-		1
Reductions for tax positions of prior years		(37	)		-		-
Ending Balance	$	11,251		$	3,003	$	2,991

The Company increased its uncertain tax position in the third quarter due to a technical position taken on the 2018 tax return filed in April concerning the impact of the mandatory repatriation.  The expense related to this position was recorded in the prior year and resulted in a balance sheet reclassification only. 

If the unrecognized tax benefits in the table above were recognized in a future period, $10.4 million of the unrecognized tax benefit would impact the Company’s effective tax rate.

Within the next twelve months, the statute of limitations will close in various U.S., state and non-U.S. jurisdictions.  As a result, it is reasonably expected that net unrecognized tax benefits from these various jurisdictions would be recognized within the next twelve months.  The recognition of these tax benefits is not expected to have a material impact to the Company's financial statements.  The Company does not reasonably expect any other significant changes in the next twelve months.  The following tax years, in the major tax jurisdictions noted, are open for assessment or refund:

Country	Years Ending June 30,
United States	2016 to 2019
Canada	2015 to 2019
Germany	2016 to 2019
Ireland	2019
Portugal	2018 to 2019
United Kingdom	2016 to 2019

The Company’s policy is to include interest expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the provision for income taxes on the consolidated statements of operations.  At both June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, the company had less than $0.1 million for accrued interest expense on unrecognized tax benefits.

12. Commitments

The Company leases certain property and equipment under agreements with initial terms ranging from one to sixty years. Rental expense related to continuing operations for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017 was approximately $10.5 million, $9.2 million and $7.5 million, respectively.

The gross minimum annual rental commitments under non-cancelable operating leases, principally real-estate at June 30, 2019`:

(in thousands)	Lease		Sublease		Net obligation

2024		3,550		363		3,187
Thereafter		18,292		1,725		16,567

13. Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is subject to various claims and legal proceedings, including claims related to environmental remediation, either asserted or unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company’s management does not believe that the outcome of any of the currently existing legal matters will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow. The Company accrues for losses related to a claim or litigation when the Company’s management considers a potential loss probable and can reasonably estimate such potential loss.

14. stock-based compensation and purchase plans

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

Under incentive compensation plans, the Company is authorized to make grants of stock options, restricted stock and performance share units to provide equity incentive compensation to key employees and directors. The stock award program offers employees and directors the opportunity to earn shares of our stock over time, rather than options that give the employees and directors the right to purchase stock at a set price.  The Company has stock plans for directors, officers and certain key employees. 

Total compensation cost recognized in income for equity based compensation awards was $4.4 million, $4.9 million, and $5.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively, primarily within Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses.  The total income tax benefit recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for equity-based compensation plans was $1.1 million, $1.2 million, and $1.9 million for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

There were 578,433 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under various compensation plans at June 30, 2019. 

Restricted Stock Awards

The Company may award shares of restricted stock to eligible employees and non-employee directors of the Company at no cost, giving them, in most instances, all of the rights of stockholders, except that they may not sell, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber such shares and rights during the restriction period.  Such shares and rights are subject to forfeiture if certain employment conditions are not met.  During the restriction period, recipients of the shares are entitled to dividend equivalents on such shares, providing that such shares are not forfeited.  Dividends are accumulated and paid out at the end of the restriction period.  During 2019, 2018, and 2017, the Company granted 70,085, 51,792, and 51,563 shares respectively of restricted stock to eligible participants.  Restrictions on the stock awards generally lapse between fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2022.  For the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017, $ 3.7 million, $3.7 million, and $3.6 million, respectively, was recognized as compensation expense related to restricted stock awards.  Substantially all awards are expected to vest.

A summary of restricted stock awards activity during the year ended June 30, 2019 is as follows:

	Restricted Stock Awards
	Number			Aggregate
	of			Intrinsic
	Shares			Value
Outstanding, June 30, 2018		120,010		$	12,258,515
Granted		70,085
Exercised / vested		(43,959	)	$	(885,810	)
Canceled		(18,094	)
Outstanding, June 30, 2019		128,042		$	9,365,632

Restricted stock awards granted during 2019, 2018 and 2017 had a weighted average grant date fair value of $102.74, $93.73, and $85.07, respectively.  The grant date fair value of restricted stock awards is determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.  The total intrinsic value of awards exercised during the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017 was $0.9 million, $0.8 million, and $1.1 million, respectively. 

As of June 30, 2019, there was $5.8 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to awards expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.52 years.

Executive Compensation Program

The Company operates a compensation program for key employees.  The plan contains both an annual component as well as a long-term component.  Under the annual component, participants may elect to defer up to 50% of their annual incentive compensation in restricted stock which is purchased at a discount to the market.  Additionally, non-employee directors of the Company may defer a portion of their director’s fees in restricted stock units which is purchased at a discount to the market.  During the restriction period, recipients of the shares are entitled to dividend equivalents on such units, providing that such shares are not forfeited. 

Dividend equivalents are accumulated and paid out at the end of the restriction period.  The restrictions on the units expire after three years.  At June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, 34,950 and 31,760 shares of restricted stock units are outstanding and subject to restrictions that lapse between fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2022. The compensation expense associated with this incentive program is charged to income over the restriction period.  The Company recorded compensation expense related to this program of $0.3 million, $0.3 million, and $0.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

As of June 30, 2019, there was $0.3 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to awards expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.2 years.

The fair value of the awards under the annual component of this incentive program is measured using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  Key assumptions used to apply this pricing model are as follows:

	2019			2018			2017
Risk-free interest rates		2.63	%		1.55	%		0.71	%
Expected life of option grants (in years)		3			3			3
Expected volatility of underlying stock		25.1	%		25.6	%		25.7	%
Expected quarterly dividends (per share)	$	0.18		$	0.16		$	0.14

Under the long-term component, grants of performance share units (“PSUs”) are made annually to key employees and the share units are earned based on the achievement of certain overall corporate financial performance targets over the performance period.  At the end of the performance period, the number of shares of common stock issued will be determined by adjusting upward or downward from the target in a range between 50% and 200%.  No shares will be issued if the minimum performance threshold is not achieved. The final performance percentage, on which the payout will be based considering the performance metrics established for the performance period, will be certified by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. 

A participant’s right to any shares that are earned will cliff vest in three years.  An executive whose employment terminates prior to the vesting of any award for a reason other than death, disability, retirement, or following a change in control, will forfeit the shares represented by that award. In certain circumstances, such as death, disability, or retirement, PSUs are paid on a pro-rata basis.  In the event of a change in control, vesting of the awards granted is accelerated.

The Company recognized compensation expense related to the PSUs of $0.3 million, $0.9 million, and $1.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017 respectively based on the probability of the performance targets being met. The total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested performance share units was $1.4 million at June 30, 2019, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.02 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan that allows employees to purchase shares of common stock of the Company at a discount from the market each quarter. The ESPP plan, which was effective as of July 1, 2005, provided employees the option to purchase Standex stock at a discount of 5%. The Plan was modified, effective as of April 1, 2017, to increase the stock purchase discount to 15% and is considered a compensatory Plan. Under this new Plan, shares of our stock may be purchased by employees quarterly at 85% of the fair market value on the last day of each quarter. The 15% discount is recorded as a component of SG&A in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Shares of stock reserved for the plan were 73,617 at June 30, 2019. Shares purchased under this plan aggregated to 7,698, 5,622, and 3,742 in 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively, at an average price of $65.63, $86.01, and $84.17, respectively.

Our investment policy for the U.S. pension plans targets a range of exposure to the various asset classes. Standex rebalances the portfolio periodically when the allocation is not within the desired range of exposure. The plan seeks to provide returns in excess of the various benchmarks. The benchmarks include the following indices: S&P 500; Citigroup PMI EPAC; Citigroup World Government Bond and Barclays Aggregate Bond. A third-party investment consultant tracks the plan’s portfolio relative to the benchmarks and provides quarterly investment reviews which consist of a performance and risk assessment on all investment managers and on the portfolio.

Certain managers within the plan use, or have authorization to use, derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes, the creation of market exposures and management of country and asset allocation exposure. Currency speculation derivatives are strictly prohibited.

Year Ended June 30	2019		2018		2017
Plan assumptions - obligations
Discount rate		0.24 - 3.70%		0.38 - 4.40%		1.90 - 4.00%

Rate of compensation increase		3.60%		3.70%		3.30%

Included in the above are the following assumptions relating to the obligations for defined benefit pension plans in the United States at June 30, 2019; a discount rate of 3.7% and expected return on assets of 7.0%. The U.S. defined benefit pension plans represent the majority of our pension obligations. The expected return on plan assets assumption is based on our expectation of the long-term average rate of return on assets in the pension funds and is reflective of the current and projected asset mix of the funds. The discount rate reflects the current rate at which pension liabilities could be effectively settled at the end of the year. The discount rate is determined by matching our expected benefit payments from a stream of AA- or higher bonds available in the marketplace, adjusted to eliminate the effects of call provisions.

Expected benefit payments for all plans during the next five years are as follows: 2020, $17.8 million; 2021, $17.4 million; 2022, $17.9 million; 2023, $17.8 million; 2024, $17.8 million and five years thereafter, $87.5 million. The Company expects to make $5.4 million of contributions to its pension plans in 2020.

The Company operates defined benefit plans in Germany and Japan which are unfunded.

Multi-Employer Pension Plans

We contribute to two multiemployer defined benefit plans under the terms of collective bargaining agreements that cover our union-represented employees. These plans generally provide for retirement, death and/or termination benefits for eligible employees within the applicable collective bargaining units, based on specific eligibility/participation requirements, vesting periods and benefit formulas. The risks of participating in these multiemployer plans are different from single-employer plans in the following aspects:

● Assets contributed to the multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers.

● If a participating employer stops contributing to the multiemployer plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers.

● If we choose to stop participating in some of our multiemployer plans, we may be required to pay those plans an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability. However, cessation of participation in a multiemployer plan and subsequent payment of any withdrawal liability is subject to the collective bargaining process.

The following table outlines the Company’s participation in multiemployer pension plans for the periods ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017 , and sets forth the yearly contributions into each plan. The “EIN/Pension Plan Number” column provides the Employer Identification Number (“EIN”) and the three-digit plan number. The most recent Pension Protection Act zone status available in 2019 amd 2018 relates to the plans’ two most recent fiscal year-ends. The zone status is based on information that we received from the plans’ administrators and is certified by each plan’s actuary. Among other factors, plans certified in the red zone are generally less than 65% funded, plans certified in the orange zone are both less than 80% funded and have an accumulated funding deficiency or are expected to have a deficiency in any of the next six plan years, plans certified in the yellow zone are less than 80% funded, and plans certified in the green zone are at least 80% funded. The “FIP/RP Status Pending/Implemented” column indicates whether a financial improvement plan (“FIP”) for yellow/orange zone plans, or a rehabilitation plan (“RP”) for red zone plans, is either pending or has been implemented. For all plans, the Company’s contributions do not exceed 5% of the total contributions to the plan in the most recent year.

Retirement Savings Plans

The Company has two primary employee savings plans, one for salaried employees and one for hourly employees. Substantially all of our full-time domestic employees are covered by these savings plans. Under the provisions of the plans, employees may contribute a portion of their compensation within certain limitations. The Company, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, may make contributions on behalf of our employees under the plans. Company contributions were $4.0 million, $3.7 million, and $4.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. At June 30, 2019, the salaried plan holds approximately 59,000 shares of Company common stock, representing approximately 3.86% of the holdings of the plan.

Net sales include only transactions with unaffiliated customers and include no significant intersegment or export sales.  Operating income by segment and geographic area excludes general corporate and interest expenses.  Assets of the Corporate segment consist primarily of cash, office equipment, and other non-current assets.

Given the nature of our corporate expenses, management concluded that it would not presently be appropriate to allocate the expenses associated with corporate activities to our operating segments.  These corporate expenses include the costs for the corporate headquarters, salaries and wages for the personnel in corporate, professional fees related to corporate matters and compliance efforts, stock-based compensation and post-retirement benefits related to our corporate executives, officers and directors, and other compliance related costs.  The Company has a process to allocate and recharge certain direct costs to the operating segments when such direct costs are administered and paid at corporate.  Such direct expenses that are recharged on an intercompany basis each month include such costs as insurance, workers’ compensation programs, audit fees and pension expense.  The accounting policies applied by the reportable segments are the same as those described in the Summary of Accounting Policies footnote to the consolidated financial statements.  There are no differences in accounting policies which would be necessary for an understanding of the reported segment information.

20. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

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

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

The transaction closed on March 31, 2019 and resulted in a pre-tax gain of $20.5 million less related transaction expenses of $4.4 million.  The Company reported a tax benefit related to the sale due to the write-off of deferred tax liabilities related to the Cooking Solutions Group. A cash payment of $106.9 million was received on April 1, 2019. The proceeds received were subsequently used to pay down borrowings on our revolving credit facility.

21. PROPERTY INSURANCE CLAIM

On June 26, 2019, the New Albany, Mississippi warehouse serving the Refrigerated Solutions Group’s Master-Bilt  brand experienced a fire that substantially destroyed all contents therein.  The warehouse, which was leased, comprises approximately 155,000 square feet.  While the adjacent manufacturing facilities did not suffer any damage, there was approximately $7 million of damage to the Company’s finished goods and approximately $1 million related to ancillary handling equipment.  The Company has insurance coverage associated with the lost inventory and equipment and has recorded an insurance recovery asset, net of an insurance deductible of $0.5 million, as a component of Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.  In addition, the Company expects to work with its insurer to recover lost profits associated with business interruption it anticipates experiencing in fiscal year 2020.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Shareholders

Standex International Corporation

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Standex International Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated August 27, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion.

Basis for opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical audit matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Revenue recognition – Revenue Recognized Over Time

As described in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s revenue that is recognized over time was $32.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2019.  For these transactions, revenue is recognized over time based on cost incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated cost. We identified revenue recognized over time as a critical audit matter.

The principal considerations for our determination that this matter is a critical audit matter are as follows. Accounting for these transactions requires the Company to monitor customer contracts to determine the expected costs to be incurred to satisfy the related performance obligation. Management’s determination of these expected costs involves estimation and subjectivity, which, in turn, involved complexity and auditor subjectivity in evaluating management’s estimates and obtaining sufficient appropriate audit evidence related to such estimates.

71

Our audit procedures related to revenue recognized over time included the following, among others.

● We tested the operating effectiveness of controls relating to management’s development and ongoing evaluation of each contract’s expected cost.

● For a sample of transactions, we inspected the customer contract and evaluated assumptions used by management in determining the contract’s estimated expected cost in order to fulfill the performance obligation under the contract. This included comparing planned costs to actual costs incurred to date based on management’s original assumptions and corroborating management’s assumptions with company engineers assigned to the contract.

● For a sample of transactions, we evaluated whether the assumptions surrounding the expected costs to be incurred were reasonable by testing management’s historical ability to estimate. This included comparing actual costs incurred on completed contracts to management’s original assumptions and assumptions throughout the contract’s life related to expected costs to be incurred.

Goodwill Impairment Assessment

As described in Notes 1 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated goodwill balance was $282 million at June 30, 2019, which is allocated to the Company’s nine reporting units. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level. We identified the Company’s goodwill impairment assessment of certain reporting units as a critical audit matter.

The principal considerations for our determination that this matter is a critical audit matter are as follows. The determination of the fair value of reporting units requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future cash flows and discount rates. This requires management to evaluate historical results and expectations of future operating performance based on relevant information available to them regarding expectations of industry performance as well as expectations for entity-specific performance. In addition, determining the discount rate requires management to evaluate the appropriate risk premium based on their judgment of industry and entity-specific risks. As disclosed by management, changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value of the reporting units, the amount of any goodwill impairment charge, or both. In turn, auditing management’s judgments regarding forecasts of future cash flows and the discount rate to be applied involved a high degree of auditor subjectivity.

Our audit procedures related to the Company’s goodwill impairment assessment of certain reporting units included the following, among others.

● We tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls relating to management’s goodwill impairment tests, including controls over the determination of key inputs such as the forecasting of future cash flows and determination of the discount rate.

● We compared management’s forecasts of future revenue and operating margin to third -party industry projections, historical operating results, and past projections.

● We evaluated management’s historical ability to achieve forecasted revenue and operating margins.

● We performed sensitivity analysis on the Company’s future revenue and operating margins to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s forecasts.

● We utilized a valuation specialist to assist in recalculating the Company’s discounted cash flow model and in evaluating the reasonableness of significant assumptions to the model, including the discount rate.

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

Not Applicable

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

The management of the Company including its Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of June 30, 2019, that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms and (ii) that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

SEC guidance permits the exclusion of an evaluation of the effectiveness of a registrant's disclosure controls and procedures as they relate to the internal control over financial reporting for an acquired business during the first year following such acquisition. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements contained in this Report, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Tenibac-Graphion Inc., Agile Magnetics Inc., and Genius Solutions Engineering Company. The acquisitions represent approximately 3.5% of the Company's consolidated continuing operations revenue for the year ended June 30, 2019, and approximately 6.2% of the Company's consolidated assets at June 30, 2019. Management's evaluation and conclusion as to the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019 excludes any evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of Tenibac-Graphion Inc. Agile Magnetics Inc. and the Genius Solutions Engineering Company.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with management’s evaluation that occurred during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year (ended June 30, 2019) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The management of Standex is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Section 240.13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the fiscal year covered by this report on Form 10-K. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).” These criteria are in the areas of control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication and monitoring. Management’s assessment included documenting, evaluating and testing the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

Based on the Company’s processes, as described above, management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2019 to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its objectives. These results were reviewed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Grant Thornton, LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, has issued an unqualified attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which is included below.

Inherent Limitation on Effectiveness of Controls

No matter how well designed, internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting determined to be effective can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect all misstatements that might be due to error or fraud. In addition, a design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Shareholders

Standex International Corporation

Opinion on internal control over financial reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Standex International Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2019, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019, and our report dated August 27, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Basis for opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting (“Management’s Report”). Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Our audit of, and opinion on, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting does not include the internal control over financial reporting of Genius Solutions Engineering Company (“GS Engineering”), Regional Mfg. Specialists, Inc. (“Agile Magnetics”), and Tenibac-Graphion, Inc. (“Tenibac”), three wholly-owned subsidiaries, whose financial statements reflect total assets and revenues constituting 6.2 percent and 3.5 percent, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019. As indicated in Management’s Report, GS Engineering, Agile Magnetics, and Tenibac were acquired during 2019. Management’s assertion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting excluded internal control over financial reporting of GS Engineering, Agile Magnetics, and Tenibac.

Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to 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. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

EX-10.D

Exhibit 10.(d)

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS IS AN AGREEMENT made and entered into effective as of the 26^th day of August, 2019 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Standex International Corporation, a Delaware corporation with executive offices located at 11 Keewaydin Drive, Suite 300, Salem, New Hampshire 03079 (the “Employer”) and Annemarie Bell, an individual residing at 8 Premier Drive, Londonderry, NH 03053 (the “Employee”). Employee previously has been serving as Interim Vice President of Human Resources for the Employer. Recently, Employer has promoted Employee to Vice President of Human Resources and, in connection with such promotion, has offered, and Employee has accepted, this Employment Agreement (this “Agreement”).

1. Employment; Term; Location.

(a)     Employer hereby agrees to employ Employee, and Employee hereby agrees to serve Employer on a full-time basis as Vice President of Human Resources of the Employer, subject to the direction and control of the President and CEO of the Employer, through June 30, 2020 (the “Initial Term”). Thereafter the Agreement shall automatically renew for successive one (1) year terms commencing on July 1^st of each year and end on June 30^th of the next succeeding year (the “Renewal Term”) unless otherwise terminated pursuant to Section 1(b) of this Agreement.

(b)     Subject to the provisions for termination otherwise included in Section 5 herein, either the Employer or the Employee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving the other party thirty (30) days advanced, written notice (the “Notice Period”), at any time during the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, stating her/its intention to terminate the Agreement. Such termination will be effective at the end of the Notice Period. In the event of notice of termination by the Employer, the provisions of Section 6 shall apply.

(c)     Employee’s principle office location shall be at the Employer’s headquarters in Salem, New Hampshire. Employee shall engage in business travel as reasonably required in order for her to fulfill her responsibilities.

2.     Best Efforts. Employee agrees, as long as this Agreement is in effect, to continue to devote her same best efforts and the same time and attention to the business of Employer that she is presently devoting to said business of Employer, and to the performance of such executive, managerial and supervisory duties of a similar nature to those performed for Employer during the period of service preceding this Agreement.

3.     Non-Compete. Except as set forth in the third paragraph of this Section 3, Employee shall not, while this Agreement is in effect, engage in, or be interested in, in any active capacity, any business other than that of the Employer or any affiliate, associate or subsidiary corporation of Employer. It is the express intent of the Employer and Employee that: (i) the covenants and affirmative obligations of this Section be binding obligations to be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law; (ii) in the event of any determination of unenforceability of the scope of any covenant or obligation, its limitation which a court of competent jurisdiction deems fair and reasonable, shall be the sole basis for relief from the full enforcement thereof; and (iii) in no event shall the covenants or obligations in this Section be deemed wholly unenforceable.

1

In addition, except as set forth in the third paragraph of this Section 3, Employee shall not, for a period of one (1) year after termination of employment (whether such termination is by reason of the expiration of this Agreement or for any other reason), within the United States, directly or indirectly, control, manage, operate, join or participate in the control, management or operation of any business which directly or indirectly competes with any business of the Employer at the time of such termination. The Employee shall not during the term of this non-competition provision contact any employees of the Employer for the purpose of inducing or otherwise encouraging said employees to leave their employment with the Employer.

No provision contained in this Section shall restrict Employee from making investments in other ventures which are not competitive with Employer, or restrict Employee from engaging, during non-business hours, in any other such non-competitive business or restrict Employee from owning less than five (5) percent of the outstanding securities of companies which compete with any present or future business of Employer and which are listed on a national stock exchange or actively traded on the NASDAQ National Market System.

4.     Compensation; Fringe Benefits.

(a) Base Compensation. Employer agrees to compensate the Employee for her services during the period of her employment hereunder at a minimum base salary of Two Hundred Fourteen Thousand Dollars ($214,000) per annum, payable semi-monthly. Employee shall be entitled to receive such increases in this minimum base salary, as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) of Employer shall, in its sole discretion determine. Currently, it is anticipated that this minimum base salary will be increased to Two Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars ($240,000) per annum effective October 1, 2019.

(b) Annual Incentive Compensation. Employee shall receive an annual incentive bonus opportunity payable each September after the close of the fiscal year, at a target of 25% of base compensation and, subject to any changes implemented generally by the Compensation Committee variable from 0% to 200% of target based on a combination of the achievement of certain financial metrics and individual performance against individual strategic goals set by the Compensation Committee. Currently, it is anticipated that this target annual incentive bonus shall be increased to 35% with respect to the Employer’s 2020 fiscal year.

(c) Long Term Incentive Compensation. Employee shall receive a long-term incentive opportunity pursuant to the terms of the Long-Term Incentive Plan of the Employer. Subject to Compensation Committee approval, such participation shall be at a target of 35% of base compensation consisting of grants of time-based restricted stock units and performance based restricted stock units. Subject to any changes adopted generally by the Compensation Committee, actual performance based restricted stock earned is variable from 0% to 200% of target based on achievement of certain metrics established by the Compensation Committee.

(d) Other Benefit Plans and Programs. Employee shall also be entitled to participate in the Standex Management Stock Purchase Program, the Standex Retirement Savings Plan and such other incentive, welfare and defined contribution retirement benefit plans as are made available, from time to time to executive employees of the Employer.

2

5.     Termination. In addition to the provisions concerning notice of termination in the second paragraph of Section 1, this Agreement shall terminate upon the following events:

(a) Death: Employee’s employment shall terminate upon her death, and all liability of Employer shall thereupon cease except for compensation for past services remaining unpaid and for any benefits due to Employee’s estate or others under the terms of any benefit plan of Employer then in effect in which Employee participated.

(b) Disability: In the event that Employee becomes substantially disabled during the term of this Agreement for a period of six consecutive months so that she is unable to perform the services as contemplated herein, then Employer, at its option, may terminate Employee’s employment upon written notification to Employee. Until such termination option is exercised, Employee will continue to receive her full salary and fringe benefits during any period of illness or other disability, regardless of duration. Whether or not Employee has become substantially disabled and the duration of such disability shall be subject to the Employer’s good faith determination taking into account the nature of the disability and the scope of services provided by Employee hereunder.

(c) Material Breach: In the event of the commission of any material breach of the terms of this Agreement by the Employee or Employer, the non-breaching party may cause this Agreement to be terminated on ten (10) days written notice. Employer may remove Employee from all duties and authority commencing on the first day of any such notice period, however, payment of compensation and participation in all benefits shall continue through the last day of such notice period. For purposes of this Agreement, material breach by Employee shall be defined as:

(i) An act or acts of dishonesty on the Employee’s part which are intended to result in her substantial personal enrichment at the expense of the Employer;

(ii) the Employee willfully, deliberately and continuously fails to materially and substantially perform her duties hereunder and which result in material injury to the Employer (other than such failure resulting from the Employee’s incapacity due to physical or mental disability) after demand for substantial performance is given by the Employer to the Employee specifically identifying the manner in which the Employer believes Employee has not materially and substantially performed her duties hereunder; or

(iii) the Employee willfully and deliberately fails to comply with the Employer’s code of conduct, financial corporate policies or other significant, written corporate policies of the Employer; or

(iv) the Employee, through her conduct and actions (whether willful or not and in the good faith discretion of the Employer), creates a threatening, intimidating or hostile work place environment and, upon written notice from Employer, has failed to satisfactorily and permanently address the conduct and actions giving rise to such environment.

No action, or failure to act, shall be considered “willful” if it is done by the Employee in good faith and with reasonable belief that her action or omission was in the best interest of the Employer. Termination pursuant to Section 5(c) above, where material breach is committed by the Employee, shall not qualify for any severance under Section 6 below.

3

6.     Severance.

(a) In the event that Employee’s employment is terminated by the Employer pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement, (exclusive of a termination after a change in control where severance is governed by the provisions contained in Section 13 herein and exclusive of termination pursuant to Section 5, where material breach is committed by the Employee), the Employee shall receive severance pay for a period of twelve (12) months following termination of employment. Severance will be paid in accordance with normal and customary payroll practices of the Employer. The aggregate severance will be equal to twelve (12) months of the Employee’s then current, annual base compensation.

(b) In the event that Employee’s employment is terminated by the Employee pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement (exclusive of a termination after a change in control where severance is governed by the provisions contained in Section 13 herein), Employee’s entitlement to compensation and benefits shall cease on the effective date of such termination and Employee shall not be entitled to any severance or other post-employment benefits except as may be provided for under applicable law (e.g., vested 401(k) benefits).

7.     Invention and Trade Secret Agreement. Employee agrees that the Invention and Trade Secret Agreement signed by the Employee and effective October 8, 2015, is in full force and effect, provided, however, that the non-compete clause of the Invention and Trade Secret Agreement shall be superseded by the non-compete provisions of Section 3 of this Agreement.

8.     Specific Performance. It is acknowledged by both parties that damages will be an inadequate remedy to Employer in the event that Employee breaches or threatens to breach her commitments under Section 3 or under the Invention and Trade Secret Agreement. Therefore, it is agreed that Employer may institute and maintain an action or proceeding to compel the specific performance of the promises of Employee contained herein and therein. Such remedy shall, however, be cumulative, and not exclusive, to any other remedy, which Employer may have.

9.     Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement supersedes any employment understanding or agreement (except the Invention and Trade Secret Agreement) which may have been previously made by Employer or its respective subsidiaries or affiliates with Employee, and this Agreement, together with the Invention and Trade Secret Agreement, represents all the terms and conditions and the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to such employment. This Agreement may be modified or amended only by a written document signed by Employer and Employee.

10.     Assignment. This Agreement is personal between Employer and Employee and may not be assigned; provided, however, that Employer shall have the absolute right at any time, or from time to time, to sell or otherwise dispose of its assets or any part thereof, to reconstitute the same into one or more subsidiary corporations or divisions or to merge, consolidate or enter into similar transactions. In the event of any such assignment, the term “Employer” as used herein shall mean and include such successor corporation.

11.     Governing Law; Binding Nature of Agreement.   This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New Hampshire, excluding its choice of law provisions. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

4

12.     Survival. The obligations contained in Sections 3, 5 6, 7 and 13 herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement. In addition, the termination of this Agreement shall not affect any of the rights or obligations of either party arising prior to or at the time of the termination of this Agreement or which may arise by any event causing the termination of this Agreement.

13.     Change of Control.

(a) In the event of a change in control of Employer required to be reported under Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934:

(i) Employer may terminate Employee's employment only upon conclusive evidence of substantial and indisputable intentional personal malfeasance in office such as a conviction for embezzlement of Employer's funds; and

(ii) Employee may terminate her employment at any time if there is a change in her general area of responsibility, title or place of employment, or if her salary or benefits are lessened or diminished.

(b) Following a change of control of Employer, any termination of Employee's employment either by Employee pursuant to Section 13(a)(ii) or by Employer under any circumstances other than involving conclusive evidence of substantial and indisputable intentional personal malfeasance in office, then:

(i) Employee shall be promptly paid a lump sum payment equal to one times her current annual base salary plus one times the higher of the Employee’s then current target bonus or most recent actual bonus amount under the Annual Incentive Program as in effect on the date immediately prior to the change in control;

(ii) Employee shall become 100% vested in all benefit plans in which she participates including but not limited to the Management Savings Program portion of the Standex Annual Incentive Program and all restricted stock grants and performance share units granted under the Standex Long Term Incentive Program, or any successor plan of the Employer, and any other stock-based plans of the Employer; and

(iii) All life insurance and medical plan benefits covering the Employee and her dependents shall be continued at the expense of Employer for the one-year period following such termination as if the Employee were still an employee of the Employer.

14.     Notices. Any notice to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be sent by certified mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile (with a copy mailed via first class mail, postage pre-paid) or delivery in person to the parties at the addresses set forth in the preamble to this Agreement or at such other address as either party may from time to time designate in writing.

5

15.     Covenants Several. In the event that any covenant of this Agreement shall be determined invalid or unenforceable and the remaining provisions can be given effect, then such remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

16.     Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause the Agreement to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force and effect until amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the code and may be made by the Employer at any time and without the consent of the Employee). In the event that any payment of benefits hereunder may, in the determination of the Employer, be subject to section 409A(a)(1) of the Code, the payment of such benefits shall be delayed to the minimum extent necessary so that such benefits are not subject to the provisions of Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code. The Employer may attach such conditions to or adjust the amounts paid hereunder to preserve, as closely as possible, the economic consequences that would otherwise have applied to the payment; provided however, that no such condition or adjustment shall result in the payments being subject to Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code. The Employer further reserves the right to make such amendments to this Agreement as are necessary to conform the Agreement to the requirements of Section 409A, and the Employee agrees to execute any such amendments.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Employer has caused this Agreement to be executed on its behalf by its authorized officers and Employee has executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

No shares shall be issued and delivered upon exercise of this Award unless and until, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, any applicable registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, any applicable listing requirements of any national securities exchange on which stock of the same class is then listed, and any other requirements of law or of any regulatory bodies having jurisdiction over such issuance and delivery, shall have been complied with. In addition, in the case of the RSUs, no Common Stock shall be issued until the Compensation committee has determined that the performance measures entitling the participant to shares of Common Stock were met.

(b) Unless otherwise determined by the Committee (except that no discretion shall exist in the event of Termination for Cause), or, in the case of the RSUs, as set forth in any agreement between the Company and the Participant, upon the termination of a Participant’s employment prior to the vesting date set forth in Paragraph 1 above for any reason other than those described in subparagraph (a) above, the shares of Common Stock granted to such Participant which have not vested shall be forfeited and any rights the Participant may otherwise have to such shares of Common Stock shall become null and void.

4.       Cancellation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Award may be canceled by the Committee at any time, if in the opinion of the Committee, the Participant engages in activities contrary to the interests of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Upon the death of the Participant, this Award is transferable by Will or the laws of descent and distribution. The designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute a transfer.

Summary of Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

Standex International Corporation (“Standex” or the “Company”) is a diversified manufacturing company with operations in the United States, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Standex International Corporation and its subsidiaries and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and for the period then ended. Estimates are based on historical experience, actuarial estimates, current conditions and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities when they are

not

readily apparent from other sources. These estimates assist in the identification and assessment of the accounting treatment necessary with respect to commitments and contingencies. Actual results

may

differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of

three

months or less. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. At

June 30, 2019

and

2018

the C

ompany’s cash was comprised solely of cash on deposit.

Trading Securities

The Company purchases investments for its non-qualified defined contribution plan for employees who exceed certain thresholds under our traditional

401

(k) plan. These investments are classified as trading and reported at fair value. The investments generally consist of mutual funds, are included in other non-current assets and amounted to

$2.4

million at

June 30, 2019

 and

$2.4

million at

June 30, 2018

g

ains and losses on these investments are recorded as other non-operating income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Accounts Receivable Allowances

The Company has provided an allowance for doubtful accounts reserve which represents the best estimate of probable loss inherent in the Company’s account receivables portfolio. This estimate is derived from the Company’s knowledge of its end markets, customer base, products, and historical experience.

The changes in the allowances for uncollectible accounts during

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

were as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018			2017
Balance at beginning of year	$	2,184		$	1,571		$	1,363
Acquisitions and other		66			(169	)		52
Provision charged to expense		(267	)		783			316
Write-offs, net of recoveries		(532	)		(1	)		(160	)
Balance at end of year	$	1,451		$	2,184		$	1,571

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of (

first

-in,

first

-out) cost or market. Inventory quantities on hand are reviewed regularly, and provisions are made for obsolete, slow moving, and non-saleable inventory, based primarily on management’s forecast of customer demand for those products in inventory.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets that are used in operations, excluding goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount

may

not

be recoverable. Recognition and measurement of a potential impairment loss is performed on assets grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level where identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. An impairment loss is the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) exceeds its estimated fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending upon the nature of the assets.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are reported at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on assets over their estimated useful lives, generally using the straight-line method. Lives for property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Buildings (years)	40	to	50
Leasehold improvements	Lesser of useful life or term, unless renewals are deemed to be reasonably assured
Machinery and equipment (years)	8	to	15
Furniture and Fixtures (years)	3	to	10
Computer hardware and software (years)	3	to	7

Routine maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Major improvements, including those made to leased facilities, are capitalized.

Amortization of computer hardware and software of

$1.4

million,

$1.2

million, and

$0.5

 million is included as a component of depreciation expense for the years ended

June 30,

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

, respectively.

Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets

All business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets with indefinite lives, are

not

amortized, but are reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Identifiable intangible assets that are

not

deemed to have indefinite lives are amortized over the following useful lives:

Customer relationships (years)	5	to	15
Patents (years)	12
Non-compete agreements (years)	5
Other (years)	10
Developed technology (years)	10	to	20
Trade names	Indefinite life

See discussion of the Company’s assessment of impairment in Note

6

 – Goodwill and Note

7

 – Intangible Assets.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The financial instruments, shown below, are presented at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. When observable prices or inputs are

not

available, valuation models

may

be applied.

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

Level

1

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

16

– Employee Benefit Plans), securities are valued based on quoted market prices for securities held directly by the trust.

Level

2

– Inputs, other than quoted prices in an active market, that are observable either directly or indirectly through correlation with market data. For foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps, the Company values the instruments based on the market price of instruments with similar terms, which are based on spot and forward rates as of the balance sheet dates. For pension assets held in commingled funds (see Note

16

– Employee Benefit Plans), the Company values investments based on the net asset value of the funds, which are derived from the quoted market prices of the underlying fund holdings. The Company has considered the creditworthiness of counterparties in valuing all assets and liabilities.

Level

3

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

We did

not

have any transfers of assets and liabilities among levels of the fair value measurement hierarchy during the years ended

June 30,

2019

or

2018

.

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

The fair values of our financial instruments at

June 30,

2019

and

2018

were (in thousands):

	2019
	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Contingent acquisition payments(a)		7,535		-		-		7,535

(a)

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

Our financial liabilities based upon Level

3

inputs include contingent consideration arrangements relating to our acquisition of Horizon Scientific or Piazza Rosa. We are contractually obligated to pay contingent consideration payments to the Sellers of these businesses based on the achievement of certain criteria.

Contingent consideration payable to the Horizon seller is based on continued employment of the seller on the

second

and

third

anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition. Contingent acquisition payment liabilities are scheduled to be paid in periods through fiscal year

2020.

As of

June 30, 2019

we could be required to pay up to

$5.6

 million for contingent consideration arrangements if specific criteria are achieved.

Contingent consideration payable to the Piazza Rosa sellers is based on the achievement of certain revenue targets of each of the

first

three

years following the acquisition. Contingent acquisition payments are payable in euros and can be paid in periods through fiscal year

2021.

 As of

June 30, 2019

we could be required to pay up to

$1.7

million for contingent consideration arrangements if the revenue targets are met.

We have determined the fair value of the liabilities for the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs

not

observable in the market and thus represents a Level

3

measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with future payments was based on several factors, the most significant of which are continued employment of the seller and the risk-adjusted discount rate for the fair value measurement. As of

June 30, 2019

the range of outcomes nor the assumptions used to develop the estimates had changed.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company is subject to credit risk through trade receivables. Concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables is minimized because of the diversification of our operations, as well as our large customer base and our geographical dispersion.

No

individual customer accounts for more than

5%

of revenues or accounts receivable in the periods presented.

Revenue Recognition

In general, the Company recognizes revenue at the point in time control transfers to their customer based on predetermined shipping terms. Revenue recognized under long-term contracts within the Engineering Technologies group for highly customized customer products that have

no

alternative use and in which the contract specifies the Company has a right to payment for its costs, plus a reasonable margin are recognized over time. For products recognized over time, the transfer of control is measured pro rata, based upon current estimates of costs to complete such contracts. Losses on contracts are fully recognized in the period in which the losses become determinable. Revisions in profit estimates are reflected on a cumulative basis in the period in which the basis for such revision becomes known.

Cost of Goods Sold and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

The Company includes expenses in either cost of goods sold or selling, general and administrative categories based upon the natural classification of the expenses. Cost of goods sold includes expenses associated with the acquisition, inspection, manufacturing and receiving of materials for use in the manufacturing process. These costs include inbound freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, internal transfer costs as well as depreciation, amortization, wages, benefits and other costs that are incurred directly or indirectly to support the manufacturing process. Selling, general and administrative includes expenses associated with the distribution of our products, sales effort, administration costs and other costs that are

not

incurred to support the manufacturing process. The Company records distribution costs associated with the sale of inventory as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. These expenses include warehousing costs, outbound freight charges and costs associated with salaried distribution personnel. Our gross profit margins

may

not

be comparable to those of other entities due to different classifications of costs and expenses. 

Our total advertising expenses, which are classified under selling, general, and administrative expenses are primarily related to trade shows, and totaled

$3.6

 million,

$3.4

 million, and

$3.8

 million for the years ended

June 30,

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

, respectively.

Research and Development

Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred. Total research and development costs, which are classified under selling, general, and administrative expenses, were

$6.6

 million,

$4.5

million, and

$4.0

 million for the years ended

June 

30,

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

, respectively.

Warranties

The expected cost associated with warranty obligations on our products is recorded when the revenue is recognized. The Company’s estimate of warranty cost is based on contract terms and historical warranty loss experience that is periodically adjusted for recent actual experience. Since warranty estimates are forecasts based on the best available information, claims costs

may

differ from amounts provided. Adjustments to initial obligations for warranties are made as changes in the obligations become reasonably estimable.

The changes in continuing operations warranty reserve, which are recorded as accrued liabilities, during

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

were as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018			2017
Balance at beginning of year	$	4,966		$	4,667		$	4,335
Acquisitions and other charges		(85	)		(138	)		302
Warranty expense		5,016			6,248			5,052
Warranty claims		(4,619	)		(5,811	)		(5,022	)
Balance at end of year	$	5,278		$	4,966		$	4,667

The decrease in warranty expense during

2019

 

compared to

2018

 

is primarily due to better warranty claim experience in the Standex Refrigeration Group.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

Restricted stock awards, including performance based awards, generally vest over a

three

-year period. Compensation expense associated with these awards is recorded based on their grant-date fair value and is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Compensation cost for an award with a performance condition is based on the probable outcome of that performance condition. The stated vesting period is considered non-substantive for retirement eligible participants. Accordingly, the Company recognizes any remaining unrecognized compensation expense upon participant reaching retirement eligibility.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of our non-U.S. operations is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. Dollars on a monthly basis using period-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses of these operations are translated using monthly average exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustment is reported as a component of comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations and were

not

material for any period presented.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company recognizes all derivatives on its balance sheet at fair value.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are periodically used to limit the impact of currency fluctuations on certain anticipated foreign cash flows, such as foreign purchases of materials and loan payments from subsidiaries. The Company enters into such contracts for hedging purposes only. The Company has designated certain of these currency contracts as hedges, and changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with these contracts will be reported in net income. 

The Company also uses interest rate swaps to manage exposure to interest rates on the Company’s variable rate indebtedness. The Company values the swaps based on contract prices in the derivatives market for similar instruments. The Company has designated its interest rate swap agreements, including any that

may

be forward-dated, as cash flow hedges, and changes in the fair value of the swaps are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with the swaps will be reported by the Company in interest expense.

The Company does

not

hold or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes.

Income Taxes

On

December 22, 2017,

the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act” or “TCJA”) was passed which, among other things, reduces the federal corporate tax rate to

21.0%

effective for taxable years starting on or after

January 1, 2018. 

For transition year ending

June 30, 2018,

the Company recorded federal taxes using a blended federal rate of

28.0%.

  For the year ending

June 30, 2019,

the Company recorded federal taxes using a federal rate of

21.0%.

 

The provision for fiscal year ending

June 30, 2019

was impacted by several law changes implemented by the Act such as the repeal of the Section

199

manufacturing deduction, changes to the calculation for Section

162

(m) executive compensation deduction, interest deduction limitation and Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (GILTI).  As allowed under US GAAP, the Company has elected to treat any taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income under the GILTI provision as a current-period expense when incurred.  The Company will continue to monitor guidance regarding these changes and their impact on the financial statements in later periods.

Earnings Per Share

(share amounts in thousands)	2019		2018		2017

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In

February 2016,

the FASB issued ASU

2016

-

02,

Leases (Topic

842

). ASU

2016

-

02

requires lessees to recognize most lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. In

July 2018,

the FASB issued ASU

2018

-

11,

“Leases (Topic

842

) Targeted Improvements.” The guidance requires a modified retrospective adoption and this update provides for an optional transition method, which allows for the application of the standard as of the adoption date with

no

restatement of prior periods. We plan to use this option in utilizing the effective date as our date of initial application. Consequently, financial information will

not

be updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard will

not

be provided for dates and periods prior to

July 1, 2019.

The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company has elected to apply the ‘package of practical expedients’ which allow us to

not

reassess i) whether existing or expired arrangements contain a lease, ii) the lease classification of existing or expired leases, or iii) whether previous initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under the new lease standard. In preparation for adoption of the standard, the Company is implementing a software solution and enhancing internal controls to enable the preparation of financial information including the assessment of the impact of the standard. While we are still assessing the impacts of the new standard, we currently expect the adoption to result in the recognition of additional lease liabilities of approximately 

$

40

million to $

45

million, and right-of-use assets of approximately $

40

million to $

45

millio

n as of

July 1, 2019

on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as it relates to the Company’s operating leases. The Company does

not

currently expect that the new standard will have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated statement of operations or cash flows.

In

January 2017,

the FASB issued ASU

Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment

, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating step

two

from the goodwill impairment test.  Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.  ASU

2017

-

04

also clarifies the requirements for excluding and allocating foreign currency translation adjustments to reporting units related to an entity's testing of reporting units for goodwill impairment.  It further clarifies that an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.  ASU

2017

-

04

is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after

December 15, 2019. 

The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of the adoption of ASU

Derivatives and Hedging (Topic

815

), Targeting Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities

, which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and to make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of hedge accounting guidance.  The new guidance requires additional disclosures including cumulative basis adjustments for fair value hedges and the effect of hedging on individual income statement line items along with providing new alternatives for applying hedge accounting to additional hedging strategies and measuring the hedged item in fair value hedges of interest rate risk.  This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after

December 15, 2018 (

fiscal

2020

for the Company), and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The amendment is to be applied prospectively.  Given the improvements made to the application of hedge accounting under the guidance, the Company decided to early adopt the ASU during the

second

quarter of fiscal year

2019.

Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting

. The amendments in ASU-

08

simplify several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions resulting from expanding the scope of Topic

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

The Company paid

$30.5

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

Intangible assets of

$8.9

million are preliminarily recorded, consisting of

$5.6

million for developed technology to be amortized over a period of

Piazza Rosa Group

During the

first

quarter of fiscal year

2018,

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

The Company paid

$10.1

million in cash for all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Piazza Rosa Group and also paid

$2.8

million subsequent to closing in order to satisfy assumed debt of the entity at the time of acquisition.  The Company has estimated that total cash consideration will be adjusted by

$2.6

million based upon achievement of certain revenue metrics over the

three

years following acquisition.  The Company made the

first

payment of

$0.9

million during the

first

quarter of

2019

based on achievement of the revenue metrics during the

first

year.

The purchase price was allocated to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values on the closing date.  Goodwill recorded from this transaction is attributable to potential revenue increases from the combined competencies with Standex Engraving’s worldwide presence and Piazza Rosa Group’s texturizing capabilities.  The combined companies create a global tool finishing service leader and open additional opportunities in the broader surface engineering market.

Intangible assets of

$4.1

million were preliminarily recorded, consisting of

$2.3

million of customer relationships to be amortized over a period of

eight

years,

$1.6

million for trademarks, and

$0.2

million of other intangibles assets.  The Company finalized its purchase accounting for this acquisition in the

first

quarter of fiscal year

2019

and reduced the identifiable intangible asset estimate by

$0.6

million at that time.  The goodwill of

$7.1

million created by the transaction is

not

deductible for income tax purposes.

Acquisition-Related Costs

Acquisition-related costs include costs related to acquired businesses and other pending acquisitions.  These costs consist of (i) deferred compensation and (ii) acquisition-related professional service fees and expenses, including financial advisory, legal, accounting, and other outside services incurred in connection with acquisition activities, and regulatory matters related to acquired entities.  These costs do

not

include purchase accounting expenses, which we define as acquired backlog and the step-up of inventory to fair value, or the amortization of the acquired intangible assets.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block]

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

 

Effective

July 1, 2018,

the Company adopted the new accounting standard, ASU

No.

2014

-

09,

“Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASC

606

) using the modified retrospective method to contracts that were

not

completed as of

June 30, 2018.

We recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, whereby the cumulative impact of all prior periods is recorded in retained earnings or other impacted balance sheet line items upon adoption. The comparative information has

not

been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC

605.

The impact on the Company’s consolidated income statements, balance sheets, equity or cash flows as of the adoption date as a result of applying ASC

606

have been reflected within those respective financial statements.

Under the Company’s historical accounting policies, non-developmental long-term contracts were recognized when the goods were transferred to the customer.  Upon adoption, contracts for highly customized customer products that have

no

alternative use and in which the contract specifies the Company has a right to payment for its costs, plus a reasonable margin met the requirements for recognition over time under ASC

606.

  Additionally, under the Company’s historical accounting policies, the Food Service Equipment segment estimated the rebate accrual based on a volume-related method for rebates.  Under ASC

606,

the Company now calculates the rebate accrual on anticipated sales for the rebate period, rather than measurement of actual achievement of specific tiers.

Upon adoption, we recognized a reduction to retained earnings of

$1.0

million which is comprised of (i) a net change for Engineering Technologies of

$0.7

million in revenues offset by cost of sales increase of

$0.6

million; and (ii) a

$1.5

million adjustment for accrued rebates in the Food Service Equipment segment.  The details of the adjustments to retained earnings upon adoption on

June 30, 2018

as well as the effects on the consolidated balance sheet as of

June 30, 2018,

as if ASC

606

had been adopted in our

2018

fiscal year are as follows:

Goodwill Disclosure [Text Block]

Goodwill

Goodwill and certain indefinite-lived intangible assets are

not

amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset

may

be less than its carrying amount. The Company’s annual test for impairment is performed using a

May

31st

measurement date.

The Company has identified our reporting units for impairment testing as its

nine

 operating segments, which are aggregated into

five

reporting segments as disclosed in Note

18

 – Industry Segment Information. 

As quoted market prices are

not

available for the Company’s reporting units, the fair value of the reporting units is determined using a discounted cash flow model (income approach).  This method uses various assumptions that are specific to each individual reporting unit in order to determine the fair value. In addition, the Company compares the estimated aggregate fair value of its reporting units to its overall market capitalization.

While the Company believes that estimates of future cash flows are reasonable, changes in assumptions could significantly affect valuations and result in impairments in the future.  The most significant assumption involved in the Company’s determination of fair value is the cash flow projections of each reporting unit.  If the estimates of future cash flows for each reporting unit

may

be insufficient to support the carrying value of the reporting units, the Company will reassess its conclusions related to fair value and the recoverability of goodwill. Consistent with business practices and our strategic alignment we realigned our Nor-lake and Scientific reporting units during

April

of

2019.

As a result, we re-allocated goodwill from the Nor-lake reporting unit to the Scientific reporting unit and performed an impairment test as of

April 30, 2019

on both the old reporting unit structure as well as under the new reporting unit structure,

no

impairment was indicated in either test. 

We completed our annual impairment testing as of

May 31, 2019,

and determined that the fair value of each of its reporting units substantially exceeded each unit’s respective carrying value, therefore,

no

impairment charges were recorded in connection with our testing and assessment during

2019

and

2018.

Bank Credit Agreements

During the

second

quarter of fiscal year

2019,

the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Facility”, or “facility”).  This

five

-year Credit Facility expires in

December 2023

and has a borrowing limit of

$500

million, which can be increased by an amount of up to

$250

million, in accordance with specified conditions contained in the agreement.  The facility also includes a

$10

million sublimit for swing line loans and a

$35

million sublimit for letters of credit.  The facility amends and restates a previously existing

$400

million revolving credit agreement, which was scheduled to expire in

December 2019.

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

Funds borrowed under the facility

may

be used for the repayment of debt, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions (so long as certain conditions, including a specified funded debt to EBITDA leverage ratio is maintained), and other general corporate purposes.  As of

June 30, 2019,

the Company had the ability to borrow

$253.4

million under the facility based on our current EBITDA.  The facility contains customary representations, warranties and restrictive covenants, as well as specific financial covenants which the Company was compliant with as of

June 30, 2019. 

The Company’s current financial covenants under the facility are as follows:

Interest Coverage Ratio

- The Company is required to maintain a ratio of Earnings Before Interest and Taxes, as Adjusted (“Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Agreement”), to interest expense for the trailing

twelve

months of at least

2.75:1.

  Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Agreement specifically excludes extraordinary and certain other defined items such as cash restructuring and acquisition-related charges up to the lower of

$20

million or

10%

of EBITDA, an increase from the prior agreement’s

$7.5

million cap on restructuring expenses. The new facility continues to allow unlimited non-cash charges including purchase accounting and goodwill adjustments.  At

June 30, 2019,

the Company’s Interest Coverage Ratio was

7.73:1.

    

Leverage Ratio

- The Company’s ratio of funded debt to trailing

twelve

month Adjusted EBITDA per the credit agreement, calculated as Adjusted EBIT per the Credit Agreement plus depreciation and amortization,

may

not

exceed

3.5:1.

Under certain circumstances in connection with a Material Acquisitions (as defined in the Facility), the Facility allows for the leverage ratio to go as high as

4.0:1

for a

four

-fiscal quarter period. At

June 30, 2019

the Company’s Leverage Ratio was

1.28:1.

As of

June 30, 2019,

we had borrowings under our facility of

$198.8

million and the effective rate of interest for outstanding borrowings under the facility was

3.88%.

During the

fourth

quarter of fiscal

2019,

we collected

$106.9

million in connection with the sale of our Cooking Solutions Group and substantially all of these proceeds were used to repay borrowings under our facility. Our primary cash requirements in addition to day-to-day operating needs include interest payments, capital expenditures, and dividends.  Our primary sources of cash for these requirements are cash flows from continuing operations and borrowings under the facility. 

In order to manage our interest rate exposure, we are party to

$85.0

million of active floating to fixed rate swaps.  These swaps convert our interest payments from LIBOR to a weighted average rate of

2.11%.

Other Long-Term Borrowings

At

June 30, 2019,

and

2018,

the Company had standby letter of credit sub-facility outstanding, primarily for insurance and trade financing purposes of

$7.6

million and

$7.9

may

result in a reclassification of any gain or loss reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings as an adjustment to interest expense.  Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to these instruments is being amortized into interest expense concurrent with the hedged exposure.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are used to limit the impact of currency fluctuations on certain anticipated foreign cash flows, such as foreign purchases of materials and loan payments between subsidiaries.  The Company enters into such contracts for hedging purposes only.  The Company has designated certain of these currency contracts as hedges, and changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings.  Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with these contracts will be reported in net income.  At

Income Taxes

On

December 22, 2017,

the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act” or “TCJA”) was passed which, among other things, reduces the federal corporate tax rate to

21.0%

effective for taxable years starting on or after

January 1, 2018. 

For transition year ending

June 30, 2018,

the Company recorded federal taxes using a federal rate of

28.0%.

  For the year ending

June 30, 2019,

the Company recorded federal taxes using a blended federal rate of

21.0%.

 

During the quarter ended

December 31, 2018,

the Company recorded a tax benefit of approximately

$0.8

 million to its provision for income taxes related to a mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings and considered the toll tax calculation to be complete. 

The provision for fiscal year ending

June 30, 2019

was impacted by several law changes implemented by the Act such as the repeal of the Section

199

manufacturing deduction, changes to the calculation for Section

162

(m) executive compensation deduction, interest deduction limitation and Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (GILTI).  As allowed under US GAAP, the Company has elected to treat any taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income under the GILTI provision as a current-period expense when incurred.  The Company will continue to monitor guidance regarding these changes and their impact on the financial statements in later periods.

U.S. tax law allows a

one

-hundred percent dividend received deduction for foreign dividends and the Company has begun to bring back cash from foreign subsidiaries.  However, the permanent reinvestment assertion must still be assessed and made regarding potential liabilities for foreign withholding taxes.  As of

June 30, 2019,

the Company maintained the assessment that previously undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries

no

longer meet the requirements for indefinite reinvestment under applicable accounting guidance.  Therefore, the Company recognized deferred tax liabilities of approximately

$2.1

million that relate to withholding taxes on the current earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries.  It is expected deferred tax liabilities will continue to be recorded on current earnings in future periods from these subsidiaries.  The Company maintains the permanent reinvestment assertion on earnings in certain foreign jurisdictions.  If repatriated, these earnings would generate a tax liability of approximately

$1.8

million

The components of income from continuing operations before income taxes are as follows (in thousands):

	2019		2018		2017
U.S. Operations	$	5,434	$	937	$	5,641
Non-U.S. Operations		60,179		69,310		45,318
Total	$	65,613	$	70,247	$	50,959

The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Deferred income taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial and tax bases of assets and liabilities given the provisions of the enacted tax laws.  The components of the provision for income taxes on continuing operations (in thousands) were as shown below:

	2019			2018		2017
Current:
Federal	$	432		$	9,505	$	(1,058	)
State		191			333		(18	)
Non-U.S.		21,310			21,675		13,019
Total Current	$	21,933		$	31,513	$	11,943
Deferred:
Federal	$	206		$	2,012	$	2,141
State		207			1,091		(290	)
Non-U.S.		(3,922	)		4,288		(1,972	)
Total Deferred		(3,509	)		7,391		(121	)
Total	$	18,424		$	38,904	$	11,822

A reconciliation from the U.S. Federal income tax rate on continuing operations to the total tax provision is as follows:

	2019			2018			2017
Provision at statutory tax rate		21.0	%		28.0	%		35.0	%
State taxes		0.5	%		1.5	%		(0.4	%)
Impact of foreign operations		5.0	%		(0.6	%)		(9.8	%)
Federal tax credits		(1.5	%)		(1.4	%)		(1.6	%)
Tax Reform		(1.3	%)		18.3	%		0.0	%
Cash repatriation		3.3	%		10.5	%		0.0	%
SubF/GILTI		0.4	%		0.0	%		0.0	%
Other		0.7	%		(0.9	%)		(0.1	%)
Effective income tax provision		28.1	%		55.4	%		23.1	%

Changes in the effective tax rates from period to period

may

be significant as they depend on many factors including, but

not

limited to, size of the Company’s income or loss and any

one

-time activities occurring during the period.

Due to the effective date of the Act’s rate reduction on our fiscal year, the Company recorded a blended statutory rate for the year ended

June 30, 2018

and used a

21%

rate for the year ended

June 30, 2019. 

The Company's income tax provision from continuing operations for the fiscal year ended

June 30, 2019

was impacted by the following items: (i)

$2.1

million of expenses related to expected foreign withholding taxes on cash repatriation (ii) a tax expense of

$0.3

million related to the elimination of the performance based compensation exception for executive compensation under Sec.

162

(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, offset by (iii) a tax benefit of

$0.8

million related to the impact of the Sec.

965

toll tax.

The Company's income tax provision from continuing operations for the fiscal year ended

June 30, 2018

was impacted by the following items: (i) a tax provision related to the impact of the Sec.

965

toll tax of

$11.7

million, (ii) a tax provision related to a revaluation of deferred taxes due to the federal rate reduction of

$1.3

million, and (iii) a tax provision related to expected foreign withholding taxes on cash repatriation of

$7.8

million.

The Company's income tax provision from continuing operations for the fiscal year ended

June 30, 2017

was impacted by the following items: (i) a benefit of

$0.6

million related to the R&D tax credit, and (ii) a benefit of

$5.3

million due to the mix of income earned in jurisdictions with beneficial tax rates.

Significant components of the Company’s deferred income taxes are as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018
Deferred tax liabilities:
Depreciation and amortization	$	(35,420	)	$	(39,775	)
Withholding Taxes		(5,606	)		(7,833	)
Total deferred tax liability	$	(41,026	)	$	(47,608	)
Deferred tax assets:
Accrued compensation	$	2,280		$	2,657
Accrued expenses and reserves		3,967			4,808
Pension		18,228			13,522
Inventory		927			1,613
Other		355			452
Net operating loss and credit carry forwards		17,939			8,668
Total deferred tax asset	$	43,696		$	31,720
Less: Valuation allowance		(11,354	)		(3,482	)
Net deferred tax asset (liability)	$	(8,684	)	$	(19,370	)

The Company estimates the degree to which deferred tax assets, including net operating loss and credit carry forwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction and provides a valuation allowance for tax assets and loss carry forwards that it believes will more likely than

not

go unrealized.  The valuation allowance at

June 30, 2019

applies to state and foreign loss carry forwards, which management has concluded that it is more likely than

not

that these tax benefits will

not

be realized.  The increase (decrease) in the valuation allowance from the prior year was due to the current year activity in those same state and foreign loss jurisdictions.

In addition, the sale of the Cooking Solutions Group in the fiscal year generated a significant capital loss for tax purposes due to a higher tax basis in the stock than book basis.  As of

June 30, 2019,

the Company expects that it is more likely than

not

that the majority of this loss will

not

be realizable in future years.  As such, the valuation allowance increased by

$6.3

million. 

As of

June 30, 2019,

the Company had gross state net operating loss ("NOL") and credit carry forwards of approximately

$68.5

million and

$2.7

million, respectively, which

may

be available to offset future state income tax liabilities and expire at various dates from

2019

through

2038.

  In addition, the Company had foreign NOL carry forwards of approximately

$3.8

 million,

$2.8

 million of which carry forward indefinitely and

$1.0

 million that carry forward for

10

years.

Under ASU

Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting

, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement.  Accordingly, the we recorded discrete income tax benefits in the consolidated statements of income of

$0.2

million during the fiscal year ended

June 30, 2019,

for excess tax benefits related to equity compensation.

The total provision (benefit) for income taxes included in the consolidated financial statements was as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018		2017
Continuing operations	$	18,424		$	38,904	$	11,822
Discontinued operations		(2,189	)		1,701		3,506
Total Provision	$	16,235		$	40,605	$	15,328

The tax benefit for discontinued operations relates mostly to the write-off of deferred tax liabilities from the sale of the Cooking Solutions Group.

The changes in the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits during

2019

,

2018

and

2017

were as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018		2017
Beginning Balance	$	3,003		$	2,991	$	2,978
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year		4			12		12
Additions for tax positions of prior years		8,281			-		1
Reductions for tax positions of prior years		(37	)		-		-
Ending Balance	$	11,251		$	3,003	$	2,991

The Company increased its uncertain tax position in the

third

quarter due to a technical position taken on the

2018

tax return filed in

April

concerning the impact of the mandatory repatriation.  The expense related to this position was recorded in the prior year and resulted in a balance sheet reclassification only. 

If the unrecognized tax benefits in the table above were recognized in a future period,

$10.4

 million of the unrecognized tax benefit would impact the Company’s effective tax rate.

Within the next

twelve

months, the statute of limitations will close in various U.S., state and non-U.S. jurisdictions.  As a result, it is reasonably expected that net unrecognized tax benefits from these various jurisdictions would be recognized within the next

twelve

months.  The recognition of these tax benefits is

not

expected to have a material impact to the Company's financial statements.  The Company does

not

reasonably expect any other significant changes in the next

twelve

months.  The following tax years, in the major tax jurisdictions noted, are open for assessment or refund:

Country	Years Ending June 30,
United States	2016 to 2019
Canada	2015 to 2019
Germany	2016 to 2019
Ireland	2019
Portugal	2018 to 2019
United Kingdom	2016 to 2019

The Company’s policy is to include interest expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the provision for income taxes on the consolidated statements of operations.  At both

June 30, 2019

and

June 30, 2018,

the company had less than

$0.1

 million for accrued interest expense on unrecognized tax benefits.

cost, giving them, in most instances, all of the rights of stockholders, except that they

may

not

sell, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber such shares and rights during the restriction period.  Such shares and rights are subject to forfeiture if certain employment conditions are

not

met.  During the restriction period, recipients of the shares are entitled to dividend equivalents on such shares, providing that such shares are

not

forfeited.  Dividends are accumulated and paid out at the end of the restriction period.  During

2019,

2018,

and

2017,

the Company granted

70,085,

51,792,

and

shares respectively of restricted stock to eligible participants.  Restrictions on the stock awards generally lapse between fiscal

2020

 and fiscal

2022.

  For the years ended

2018,

and

2017,

$

3.7

million,

$3.7

A summary of restricted stock awards activity during the year ended

June 30, 

2019

is as follows:

	Restricted Stock Awards
	Number			Aggregate
	of			Intrinsic
	Shares			Value
Outstanding, June 30, 2018		120,010		$	12,258,515

Restricted stock awards granted during

2019,

2018

and

2017

had a weighted average grant date fair value of

$102.74,

$93.73,

and

$85.07,

respectively.  The grant date fair value of restricted stock awards is determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.  The total intrinsic value of awards exercised during the years ended

June 

30,

 

2019,

2018,

and

2017

 was

$0.9

 million,

$0.8

million, and

$1.1

million, respectively. 

As of

June 30, 2019,

there was

$5.8

million of unrecognized compensation costs related to awards expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of

1.52

years.

Executive Compensation Program

The Company operates a compensation program for key employees.  The plan contains both an annual component as well as a long-term component.  Under the annual component, participants

may

elect to defer up to

50%

of their annual incentive compensation in restricted stock which is purchased at a discount to the market.  Additionally, non-employee directors of the Company

may

defer a portion of their director’s fees in restricted stock units which is purchased at a discount to the market.  During the restriction period, recipients of the shares are entitled to dividend equivalents on such units, providing that such shares are

not

forfeited. 

Dividend equivalents are accumulated and paid out at the end of the restriction period.  The restrictions on the units expire after

three

years.  At

June 30, 2019

and

2018,

respectively,

34,950

and

31,760

shares of restricted stock units are outstanding and subject to restrictions that lapse between fiscal

2020

 and fiscal

2022.

The compensation expense associated with this incentive program is charged to income over the restriction period.  The Company recorded compensation expense related to this program of

$0.3

million,

$0.3

million, and

$0.4

million for the years ended

June 

30,

2019,

2018

and

2017,

respectively.

As of

June 30, 2019,

there was

$0.3

million of unrecognized compensation costs related to awards expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of

1.2

years.

The fair value of the awards under the annual component of this incentive program is measured using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  Key assumptions used to apply this pricing model are as follows:

	2019			2018			2017
Risk-free interest rates		2.63	%		1.55	%		0.71	%
Expected life of option grants (in years)		3			3			3
Expected volatility of underlying stock		25.1	%		25.6	%		25.7	%
Expected quarterly dividends (per share)	$	0.18		$	0.16		$	0.14

Under the long-term component, grants of performance share units (“PSUs”) are made annually to key employees and the share units are earned based on the achievement of certain overall corporate financial performance targets over the performance period.  At the end of the performance period, the number of shares of common stock issued will be determined by adjusting upward or downward from the target in a range between

50%

and

200%.

 

No

shares will be issued if the minimum performance threshold is

not

achieved. The final performance percentage, on which the payout will be based considering the performance metrics established for the performance period, will be certified by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. 

A participant’s right to any shares that are earned will cliff vest in

three

years.  An executive whose employment terminates prior to the vesting of any award for a reason other than death, disability, retirement, or following a change in control, will forfeit the shares represented by that award. In certain circumstances, such as death, disability, or retirement, PSUs are paid on a pro-rata basis.  In the event of a change in control, vesting of the awards granted is accelerated.

A summary of the awards activity under the executive compensation program during the year ended

June 30, 

2019

is as follows:

	Annual Component								Performance Stock Units

Restricted stock awards granted under the annual component of this program in fiscal

2019,

2018,

and

2017

had a grant date fair value of

$110.22,

$96.56,

and

$87.05,

respectively.  The PSUs granted in fiscal

2019,

2018

and

2017

had a grant date fair value of

$106.65,

$91.75,

and

$83.92,

respectively. The total intrinsic value of awards vested under the executive compensation program during the years ended

June 30, 2019

,2018,

and

2017

was

$0.9

million,

$1.6

million, and

$2.3

million respectively.

The Company recognized compensation expense related to the PSUs of

$0.3

million,

$0.9

million, and

$1.0

million for the years ended

June 30, 2019,

2018

and

2017

respectively based on the probability of the performance targets being met. The total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested performance share units was

$1.4

 million at

June 30, 2019,

which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of

1.02

years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan that allows employees to purchase shares of common stock of the Company at a discount from the market each quarter. The ESPP plan, which was effective as of

July 1, 2005,

provided employees the option to purchase Standex stock at a discount of

5%.

The Plan was modified, effective as of

April 1, 2017,

to increase the stock purchase discount to

15%

and is considered a compensatory Plan. Under this new Plan, shares of our stock

may

be purchased by employees quarterly at

85%

of the fair market value on the last day of each quarter. The

15%

discount is recorded as a component of SG&A in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Shares of stock reserved for the plan were

73,617

 at

June 30, 2019.

Shares purchased under this plan aggregated to

7,698,

5,622,

and

3,742

in

2019,

2018

and

2017,

respectively, at an average price of

$65.63,

$86.01,

and

$84.17,

respectively.

Our investment policy for the U.S. pension plans targets a range of exposure to the various asset classes. Standex rebalances the portfolio periodically when the allocation is

not

within the desired range of exposure. The plan seeks to provide returns in excess of the various benchmarks. The benchmarks include the following indices: S&P

500;

Citigroup PMI EPAC; Citigroup World Government Bond and Barclays Aggregate Bond. A

third

-party investment consultant tracks the plan’s portfolio relative to the benchmarks and provides quarterly investment reviews which consist of a performance and risk assessment on all investment managers and on the portfolio.

Certain managers within the plan use, or have authorization to use, derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes, the creation of market exposures and management of country and asset allocation exposure. Currency speculation derivatives are strictly prohibited.

Included in the above are the following assumptions relating to the obligations for defined benefit pension plans in the United States at

June 30,

2019

; a discount rate of

3.7%

and expected return on assets of

7.0%.

The U.S. defined benefit pension plans represent the majority of our pension obligations. The expected return on plan assets assumption is based on our expectation of the long-term average rate of return on assets in the pension funds and is reflective of the current and projected asset mix of the funds. The discount rate reflects the current rate at which pension liabilities could be effectively settled at the end of the year. The discount rate is determined by matching our expected benefit payments from a stream of AA- or higher bonds available in the marketplace, adjusted to eliminate the effects of call provisions.

Expected benefit payments for all plans during the next

five

years are as follows: 

2020,

$17.8

 million;

2021,

$17.4

 million;

2022,

$17.9

 million;

2023,

$17.8

million;

2024,

$17.8

million and

five

years thereafter,

$87.5

 million. The Company expects to make

$5.4

 million of contributions to its pension plans in

2020

.

The Company operates defined benefit plans in Germany and Japan which are unfunded.

Multi-Employer Pension Plans

We contribute to

two

 multiemployer defined benefit plans under the terms of collective bargaining agreements that cover our union-represented employees. These plans generally provide for retirement, death and/or termination benefits for eligible employees within the applicable collective bargaining units, based on specific eligibility/participation requirements, vesting periods and benefit formulas. The risks of participating in these multiemployer plans are different from single-employer plans in the following aspects:

● Assets contributed to the multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers.

● If a participating employer stops contributing to the multiemployer plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers.

● If we choose to stop participating in some of our multiemployer plans, we may be required to pay those plans an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability. However, cessation of participation in a multiemployer plan and subsequent payment of any withdrawal liability is subject to the collective bargaining process.

The following table outlines the Company’s participation in multiemployer pension plans for the periods ended

June 30,

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

, and sets forth the yearly contributions into each plan. The “EIN/Pension Plan Number” column provides the Employer Identification Number (“EIN”) and the

Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block]

. Industry Segment Information

The Company has determined that it has

five

reportable segments organized around the types of product sold:

•          Engraving – provides mold texturizing, slush molding tools, project management and design services, roll engraving, hygiene product tooling, low observation vents for stealth aircraft, and process machinery for a number of industries;

•          Electronics – manufacturing and selling of electronic components for applications throughout the end-user market spectrum; and

•          Engineering Technologies – provides net and near net formed single-source customized solutions in the manufacture of engineered components for the aviation, aerospace, defense, energy, industrial, medical, marine, oil and gas, and manned and unmanned space markets.

•          Hydraulics – manufacturing and selling of single and double-acting telescopic and piston rod hydraulic cylinders.

•          Food Service Equipment – an aggregation of

five

operating segments that manufacture and sell commercial food service equipment;

Net sales include only transactions with unaffiliated customers and include

no

significant intersegment or export sales.  Operating income by segment and geographic area excludes general corporate and interest expenses.  Assets of the Corporate segment consist primarily of cash, office equipment, and other non-current assets.

Given the nature of our corporate expenses, management concluded that it would

not

presently be appropriate to allocate the expenses associated with corporate activities to our operating segments.  These corporate expenses include the costs for the corporate headquarters, salaries and wages for the personnel in corporate, professional fees related to corporate matters and compliance efforts, stock-based compensation and post-retirement benefits related to our corporate executives, officers and directors, and other compliance related costs.  The Company has a process to allocate and recharge certain direct costs to the operating segments when such direct costs are administered and paid at corporate.  Such direct expenses that are recharged on an intercompany basis each month include such costs as insurance, workers’ compensation programs, audit fees and pension expense.  The accounting policies applied by the reportable segments are the same as those described in the Summary of Accounting Policies footnote to the consolidated financial statements.  There are

no

differences in accounting policies which would be necessary for an understanding of the reported segment information.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

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

During the

first

quarter of

2019,

in order to focus its financial assets and managerial resources on its remaining portfolio of businesses, the Company decided to divest its Cooking Solutions Group, which consisted of

three

operating segments and a minority interest investment.  In connection with the divestiture, during the

second

quarter of

2019,

the Company sold its minority interest investment to the majority shareholders.  During the

third

quarter of fiscal

2019,

the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell the

three

operating segments to the Middleby Corporation for a cash purchase price of

$105

million, subject to post-closing adjustments and various transaction fees. 

The transaction closed on

March 31, 2019

and resulted in a pre-tax gain of

$20.5

million less related transaction expenses of

$4.4

million.  The Company reported a tax benefit related to the sale due to the write-off of deferred tax liabilities related to the Cooking Solutions Group. A cash payment of

$106.9

million was received on

April 1, 2019.

The proceeds received were subsequently used to pay down borrowings on our revolving credit facility.

Results of the Cooking Solutions Group in current and prior periods have been classified as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and excluded from the results from continuing operations.  Activity related to the Cooking Solutions Group and other discontinued operations for the year ended

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Jun. 30, 2019

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

Standex International Corporation (“Standex” or the “Company”) is a diversified manufacturing company with operations in the United States, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Standex International Corporation and its subsidiaries and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and for the period then ended. Estimates are based on historical experience, actuarial estimates, current conditions and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities when they are

not

readily apparent from other sources. These estimates assist in the identification and assessment of the accounting treatment necessary with respect to commitments and contingencies. Actual results

may

differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of

three

months or less. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. At

June 30, 2019

and

2018

the C

ompany’s cash was comprised solely of cash on deposit.

Marketable Securities, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Trading Securities

The Company purchases investments for its non-qualified defined contribution plan for employees who exceed certain thresholds under our traditional

401

(k) plan. These investments are classified as trading and reported at fair value. The investments generally consist of mutual funds, are included in other non-current assets and amounted to

$2.4

million at

June 30, 2019

 and

$2.4

million at

June 30, 2018

g

ains and losses on these investments are recorded as other non-operating income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Receivable [Policy Text Block]

Accounts Receivable Allowances

The Company has provided an allowance for doubtful accounts reserve which represents the best estimate of probable loss inherent in the Company’s account receivables portfolio. This estimate is derived from the Company’s knowledge of its end markets, customer base, products, and historical experience.

The changes in the allowances for uncollectible accounts during

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

were as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018			2017

Write-offs, net of recoveries		(532	)		(1	)		(160	)
Balance at end of year	$	1,451		$	2,184		$	1,571

Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of (

first

-in,

first

-out) cost or market. Inventory quantities on hand are reviewed regularly, and provisions are made for obsolete, slow moving, and non-saleable inventory, based primarily on management’s forecast of customer demand for those products in inventory.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets that are used in operations, excluding goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount

may

not

be recoverable. Recognition and measurement of a potential impairment loss is performed on assets grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level where identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. An impairment loss is the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) exceeds its estimated fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending upon the nature of the assets.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are reported at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on assets over their estimated useful lives, generally using the straight-line method. Lives for property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Buildings (years)	40	to	50
Leasehold improvements	Lesser of useful life or term, unless renewals are deemed to be reasonably assured
Machinery and equipment (years)	8	to	15
Furniture and Fixtures (years)	3	to	10
Computer hardware and software (years)	3	to	7

Routine maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Major improvements, including those made to leased facilities, are capitalized.

Amortization of computer hardware and software of

$1.4

million,

$1.2

million, and

$0.5

 million is included as a component of depreciation expense for the years ended

June 30,

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

, respectively.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets

All business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets with indefinite lives, are

not

amortized, but are reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Identifiable intangible assets that are

not

deemed to have indefinite lives are amortized over the following useful lives:

Customer relationships (years)	5	to	15
Patents (years)	12
Non-compete agreements (years)	5
Other (years)	10
Developed technology (years)	10	to	20
Trade names	Indefinite life

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The financial instruments, shown below, are presented at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. When observable prices or inputs are

not

available, valuation models

may

be applied.

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

Level

1

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

16

– Employee Benefit Plans), securities are valued based on quoted market prices for securities held directly by the trust.

Level

2

– Inputs, other than quoted prices in an active market, that are observable either directly or indirectly through correlation with market data. For foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps, the Company values the instruments based on the market price of instruments with similar terms, which are based on spot and forward rates as of the balance sheet dates. For pension assets held in commingled funds (see Note

16

– Employee Benefit Plans), the Company values investments based on the net asset value of the funds, which are derived from the quoted market prices of the underlying fund holdings. The Company has considered the creditworthiness of counterparties in valuing all assets and liabilities.

Level

3

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

We did

not

have any transfers of assets and liabilities among levels of the fair value measurement hierarchy during the years ended

June 30,

2019

or

2018

.

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

The fair values of our financial instruments at

June 30,

2019

and

were (in thousands):

(a)

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

Our financial liabilities based upon Level

3

inputs include contingent consideration arrangements relating to our acquisition of Horizon Scientific or Piazza Rosa. We are contractually obligated to pay contingent consideration payments to the Sellers of these businesses based on the achievement of certain criteria.

Contingent consideration payable to the Horizon seller is based on continued employment of the seller on the

second

and

third

anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition. Contingent acquisition payment liabilities are scheduled to be paid in periods through fiscal year

2020.

As of

June 30, 2019

we could be required to pay up to

$5.6

 million for contingent consideration arrangements if specific criteria are achieved.

Contingent consideration payable to the Piazza Rosa sellers is based on the achievement of certain revenue targets of each of the

first

three

years following the acquisition. Contingent acquisition payments are payable in euros and can be paid in periods through fiscal year

2021.

 As of

June 30, 2019

we could be required to pay up to

$1.7

million for contingent consideration arrangements if the revenue targets are met.

We have determined the fair value of the liabilities for the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs

not

observable in the market and thus represents a Level

3

measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with future payments was based on several factors, the most significant of which are continued employment of the seller and the risk-adjusted discount rate for the fair value measurement. As of

June 30, 2019

the range of outcomes nor the assumptions used to develop the estimates had changed.

Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company is subject to credit risk through trade receivables. Concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables is minimized because of the diversification of our operations, as well as our large customer base and our geographical dispersion.

No

individual customer accounts for more than

5%

of revenues or accounts receivable in the periods presented.

Revenue [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition

In general, the Company recognizes revenue at the point in time control transfers to their customer based on predetermined shipping terms. Revenue recognized under long-term contracts within the Engineering Technologies group for highly customized customer products that have

no

alternative use and in which the contract specifies the Company has a right to payment for its costs, plus a reasonable margin are recognized over time. For products recognized over time, the transfer of control is measured pro rata, based upon current estimates of costs to complete such contracts. Losses on contracts are fully recognized in the period in which the losses become determinable. Revisions in profit estimates are reflected on a cumulative basis in the period in which the basis for such revision becomes known.

Cost of Sales and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Cost of Goods Sold and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

The Company includes expenses in either cost of goods sold or selling, general and administrative categories based upon the natural classification of the expenses. Cost of goods sold includes expenses associated with the acquisition, inspection, manufacturing and receiving of materials for use in the manufacturing process. These costs include inbound freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, internal transfer costs as well as depreciation, amortization, wages, benefits and other costs that are incurred directly or indirectly to support the manufacturing process. Selling, general and administrative includes expenses associated with the distribution of our products, sales effort, administration costs and other costs that are

not

incurred to support the manufacturing process. The Company records distribution costs associated with the sale of inventory as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. These expenses include warehousing costs, outbound freight charges and costs associated with salaried distribution personnel. Our gross profit margins

may

not

be comparable to those of other entities due to different classifications of costs and expenses. 

Our total advertising expenses, which are classified under selling, general, and administrative expenses are primarily related to trade shows, and totaled

$3.6

 million,

$3.4

 million, and

$3.8

 million for the years ended

June 30,

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

, respectively.

Research and Development Expense, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Research and Development

Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred. Total research and development costs, which are classified under selling, general, and administrative expenses, were

$6.6

Standard Product Warranty, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Warranties

The expected cost associated with warranty obligations on our products is recorded when the revenue is recognized. The Company’s estimate of warranty cost is based on contract terms and historical warranty loss experience that is periodically adjusted for recent actual experience. Since warranty estimates are forecasts based on the best available information, claims costs

may

differ from amounts provided. Adjustments to initial obligations for warranties are made as changes in the obligations become reasonably estimable.

The changes in continuing operations warranty reserve, which are recorded as accrued liabilities, during

2019

,

2018

, and

2017

were as follows (in thousands):

	2019			2018			2017
Balance at beginning of year	$	4,966		$	4,667		$	4,335
Acquisitions and other charges		(85	)		(138	)		302
Warranty expense		5,016			6,248			5,052
Warranty claims		(4,619	)		(5,811	)		(5,022	)
Balance at end of year	$	5,278		$	4,966		$	4,667

The decrease in warranty expense during

2019

 

compared to

2018

 

is primarily due to better warranty claim experience in the Standex Refrigeration Group.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Policy Text Block]

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

Restricted stock awards, including performance based awards, generally vest over a

three

-year period. Compensation expense associated with these awards is recorded based on their grant-date fair value and is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Compensation cost for an award with a performance condition is based on the probable outcome of that performance condition. The stated vesting period is considered non-substantive for retirement eligible participants. Accordingly, the Company recognizes any remaining unrecognized compensation expense upon participant reaching retirement eligibility.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of our non-U.S. operations is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. Dollars on a monthly basis using period-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses of these operations are translated using monthly average exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustment is reported as a component of comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations and were

not

material for any period presented.

Derivatives, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company recognizes all derivatives on its balance sheet at fair value.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are periodically used to limit the impact of currency fluctuations on certain anticipated foreign cash flows, such as foreign purchases of materials and loan payments from subsidiaries. The Company enters into such contracts for hedging purposes only. The Company has designated certain of these currency contracts as hedges, and changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with these contracts will be reported in net income. 

The Company also uses interest rate swaps to manage exposure to interest rates on the Company’s variable rate indebtedness. The Company values the swaps based on contract prices in the derivatives market for similar instruments. The Company has designated its interest rate swap agreements, including any that

may

be forward-dated, as cash flow hedges, and changes in the fair value of the swaps are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with the swaps will be reported by the Company in interest expense.

The Company does

not

hold or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes.

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Income Taxes

On

December 22, 2017,

the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act” or “TCJA”) was passed which, among other things, reduces the federal corporate tax rate to

21.0%

effective for taxable years starting on or after

January 1, 2018. 

For transition year ending

June 30, 2018,

the Company recorded federal taxes using a blended federal rate of

28.0%.

  For the year ending

June 30, 2019,

the Company recorded federal taxes using a federal rate of

21.0%.

 

The provision for fiscal year ending

June 30, 2019

was impacted by several law changes implemented by the Act such as the repeal of the Section

199

manufacturing deduction, changes to the calculation for Section

162

(m) executive compensation deduction, interest deduction limitation and Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (GILTI).  As allowed under US GAAP, the Company has elected to treat any taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income under the GILTI provision as a current-period expense when incurred.  The Company will continue to monitor guidance regarding these changes and their impact on the financial statements in later periods.

2016

-

02,

Leases (Topic

842

). ASU

2016

-

requires lessees to recognize most lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. In

July 2018,

the FASB issued ASU

2018

-

11,

“Leases (Topic

842

) Targeted Improvements.” The guidance requires a modified retrospective adoption and this update provides for an optional transition method, which allows for the application of the standard as of the adoption date with

no

restatement of prior periods. We plan to use this option in utilizing the effective date as our date of initial application. Consequently, financial information will

not

be updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard will

not

be provided for dates and periods prior to

July 1, 2019.

The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company has elected to apply the ‘package of practical expedients’ which allow us to

not

reassess i) whether existing or expired arrangements contain a lease, ii) the lease classification of existing or expired leases, or iii) whether previous initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under the new lease standard. In preparation for adoption of the standard, the Company is implementing a software solution and enhancing internal controls to enable the preparation of financial information including the assessment of the impact of the standard. While we are still assessing the impacts of the new standard, we currently expect the adoption to result in the recognition of additional lease liabilities of approximately 

$

40

million to $

45

million, and right-of-use assets of approximately $

40

million to $

45

millio

n as of

July 1, 2019

on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as it relates to the Company’s operating leases. The Company does

not

currently expect that the new standard will have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated statement of operations or cash flows.

Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment

, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating step

two

from the goodwill impairment test.  Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.  ASU

2017

-

04

also clarifies the requirements for excluding and allocating foreign currency translation adjustments to reporting units related to an entity's testing of reporting units for goodwill impairment.  It further clarifies that an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.  ASU

2017

-

04

is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after

December 15, 2019. 

The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of the adoption of ASU

on our goodwill impairment testing procedures and our consolidated financial statements.

In

Derivatives and Hedging (Topic

815

), Targeting Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities

, which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and to make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of hedge accounting guidance.  The new guidance requires additional disclosures including cumulative basis adjustments for fair value hedges and the effect of hedging on individual income statement line items along with providing new alternatives for applying hedge accounting to additional hedging strategies and measuring the hedged item in fair value hedges of interest rate risk.  This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after

December 15, 2018 (

fiscal

2020

for the Company), and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The amendment is to be applied prospectively.  Given the improvements made to the application of hedge accounting under the guidance, the Company decided to early adopt the ASU during the

second

quarter of fiscal year

2019.

In
