CRAWFORD UNITED CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
September 30, 2021

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Crawford United Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021, there have been no changes to our significant accounting policies.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s Summary of Significant Accounting Policies is provided with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (as amended by ASU 2019-11). The standard requires a financial asset (including trade receivables) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Thus, the income statement will reflect the measurement of credit losses for newly-recognized financial assets as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. This standard will be effective for smaller reporting companies beginning after December 15, 2022.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounting for "Financial Instruments" requires the Company to disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. Financial instruments held by the Company include, among others, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and notes payable. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for assets and liabilities qualifying as financial instruments is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Fair Value Measurements

As defined in FASB ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements", fair value is 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. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable firm inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the examination of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

* Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

* Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

* Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

* Quoted prices for identical assets or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

* Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;

* Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

* Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Stock: The stock market value is based on valuation of market quotes from independent active market sources, and is considered a level 1 investment.

3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. The reserve for doubtful accounts was $18,509 and $19,973 at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

4. INVENTORY

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value and consists of:

	September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

Raw materials and component parts	$	4,634,164	$	3,897,133
Work-in-process		4,297,343		3,449,252
Finished products		6,859,877		3,999,920
Total inventory	$	15,791,384	$	11,346,305
Less: inventory reserves		376,434		315,345
Net inventory	$	15,414,950	$	11,030,960

5. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

For the identified reporting units, a Step 1 impairment test was performed as of December 31, 2020 using an income approach based on management’s determination of the prospective financial information, with consideration given to the existing uncertainty in the global economy and aerospace and defense industry, particularly the commercial sector. The results of this test indicated the fair value exceeded carrying value for all reporting units tested. As a result of the impairment testing performed as of December 31, 2020, no indefinite-lived intangible assets or goodwill was determined to be impaired. Management updated their assessment during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and validated the assumptions used in the analyses performed as of December 31, 2020 and determined that the resulting conclusions remained appropriate as of September 30, 2021.

Intangible assets relate to the purchase of businesses. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed on an annual basis for impairment. Intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from one year to 15 years. Intangible assets are as follows:

	September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding of the Company's financial position at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and cash flows for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic had a material adverse effect on the Company’s reported results for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2021. The Company will continue to actively monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which is expected to negatively impact the Company’s business and results of operations for the remainder of fiscal year 2021 and possibly beyond, depending upon the pace at which pandemic-related restrictions are lifted, commercial activity resumes and the economy recovers. Many of our customers are considered “essential” and have remained operational during the pandemic, although in some cases in a limited capacity. This, together with the overall economic downturn that has resulted from the pandemic, slowed demand in the first three quarters of 2021. Nearly all of the Company’s facilities have remained operational. Our supply chain has been negatively impacted by rising costs for materials and supplies and by unplanned delays in receipt of materials in recent months. The extent to which the Company’s business and operations will continue to be impacted by the pandemic will depend largely on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the pandemic; new and growing outbreaks of COVID-19 or new strains of COVID-19; actions by government authorities to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, such as reimposed public health restrictions; and efforts to combat COVID-19, such as vaccine distribution, among other things.

Items Affecting the Comparability of our Financial Results

The Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of KT Acquisition LLC (name later changed to Komtek Forge LLC “Komtek”), in Worcester, Massachusetts on January 15, 2021.

The Company purchased all of the membership interests of Global-Tek Manufacturing LLC (“Global-Tek”) in Ceiba, Puerto Rico and substantially all of the assets of Machining Technology L.L.C. (“Machining Technology”), in Longmont, Colorado on March 2, 2021.

The Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Emergency Hydraulics LLC (“Emergency Hydraulics”) in Ocala, Florida on July 1, 2021.

Accordingly, in light of the timing of these transactions, the Company’s results for the three month and nine month periods ended on September 30, 2021 include the added results of operations of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics in the Industrial and Transportation Products segment. Conversely, our results for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 do not include the results of operations of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics in the Industrial and Transportation Products segment.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 and 2020

Sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 (“current quarter”) increased to $26.4 million, an increase of approximately $5.1 million or 24.1% from sales of $21.3 million during the same quarter of the prior year. This increase in sales was primarily attributable to a recovery in demand as COVID-19 pandemic-related restrictions loosened and commercial activity increased, in addition to the acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics.

Cost of sales for the current quarter was $21.0 million compared to $16.4 million, an increase of $4.6 million or 27.9% from the same quarter of the prior year. Gross profit was $5.4 million in the current quarter compared to $4.9 million, an increase of $0.5 million from the same quarter of the prior year. The increase in cost of sales and gross profit was attributable to a recovery in demand as the COVID-19 pandemic eased, in addition to the acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales was 79.6% in the current quarter compared to 77.2% in the same quarter of the prior year. The increases in cost of sales as a percentage of sales was primarily attributable to disruptions in the global supply chain that drove an increase in the cost of raw materials.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) in the current quarter were $3.5 million, or 13.4% of sales, compared to $2.7 million, or 12.8% of sales in the third quarter of last year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of sales due primarily to an additional $0.4 million of expense as a result of the acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics.

Interest charges in the current quarter were approximately $0.2 million compared to $0.2 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Average total debt (including notes) and average interest rates for the current quarter were $26.3 million and 2.9% compared to $26.8 million and 2.9% in the same period of last year.

Other expense, net was $0.1 million in the current quarter compared to $0.0 million of other income, net in the same quarter of the prior year. The increase in other expense, net is primarily driven by a loss of $0.3 million related to investments in marketable securities and $0.1 million of transaction costs as a result of the acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics partially offset by other income of $0.3 million related to tax incentives at Global-Tek.

Income tax expense in the current quarter was $0.3 million compared to $0.5 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Tax expense is lower than the Company’s historical expected effective tax rate of 25% primarily because the expected tax rate for Global-Tek in Puerto Rico is lower than 25%.

Net income in the current quarter was $1.2 million or $0.35 per diluted share as compared to the net income of $1.4 million or $0.43 per diluted share for the same quarter of the prior year. Unrealized losses related to investments in marketable securities reduced net income by approximately $0.3 million or $0.07 per diluted share in the current quarter.

Results of Operations – Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 and 2020

Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (“current year to date”) were $76.8 million, an increase of approximately $11.7 million or 18.0% from sales of $65.1 million during the same period of the prior year. This increase in sales was primarily attributable to a recovery in demand as COVID-19 pandemic-related restrictions loosened and commercial activity increased, in addition to the acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics.

Cost of sales for the current year to date was $59.7 million compared to $50.6 million in the same period of the prior year, an increase of $9.1 million or 18.0%. Gross profit was $17.2 million in the current year to date compared to $14.6 million in the same period of prior year in the same period of the prior year, an increase of $2.6 million. The increase in cost of sales and gross profit was attributable to a recovery in demand as the COVID-19 pandemic eased, in addition to the acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) in the current year to date were $10.9 million, or 14.1% of sales, compared to $8.8 million, or 13.5% of sales, in the same period of the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $2.1 million driven primarily by an additional $1.4 million of expense as a result of the acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics.

Interest charges in the current year to date were approximately $0.7 million compared to $0.7 million in the same period of the prior year. Average total debt (including notes) and average interest rates for the current year to date were $26.6 million and 3.0%, compared to $26.7 million and 3.2% in the same period of the prior year.

Other income, net was $1.1 million in the current year to date compared to $0.1 million of other expense, net in the same period of the prior year. The increase in other income is primarily driven by the forgiveness in full during the first quarter of 2021 of the $1.5 million in aggregate Payroll Protection Program Loans (“PPP Loans”) accepted by two of the Company’s subsidiaries, in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. The forgiveness of the PPP loans is treated as income. This increase in other income was partially offset by an unrealized loss of $0.3 million related to investments in marketable securities

Income tax expense in the current year to date was $1.2 million compared to $1.3 million in the same period of the prior year. Tax expense is lower than the Company’s historical expected effective tax rate of 25% primarily because the expected tax rate for Global-Tek in Puerto Rico is lower than 25%.

Net income in the current year to date was $5.6 million or $1.64 per diluted share as compared to the net income of $3.7 million or $1.12 per diluted share for the same period of the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As described further in Note 12 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, effective January 15, 2021, the Company completed the Komtek acquisition for a purchase price of $3.6 million, which included the assumption of $1.7 million of debt and the issuance of $1.1 million of Class A common shares.

As described further in Note 12 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, effective March 1, 2021, the Company completed the Global-Tek and Machining Technology acquisition for a purchase price of $8.0 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments based on working capital and the achievement of future performance milestones.

As described further in Note 12 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, effective July 1, 2021, the Company completed the Emergency Hydraulics acquisition for a purchase price of $0.3 million.

The Company’s credit agreement, dated as of June 1, 2017, by and between the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as lender (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), provides for a revolving credit facility. On March 2, 2021, the Company amended its Credit Agreement to increase availability under the revolving credit facility to $30.0 million from $20.0 million. The amendment to the loan agreement provided additional flexibility to fund acquisitions, working capital and other strategic initiatives.

Total current assets at September 30, 2021 increased to $41.6 million from $35.2 million at December 31, 2020, an increase of $6.4 million. The increase in current assets is comprised of the following: an increase of accounts receivable of $7.0 million; an increase in inventory of $4.4 million; an increase in prepaid expenses of $0.5 million; partially offset by a decrease in cash of $3.6 million; an increase in contract assets of $1.5 million; and a decrease in investments of $0.4 million. The increases in inventory and accounts receivable were driven primarily by the recent acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics. The Company is carrying lower cash balances due to funding those acquisitions.

Total current liabilities at June 30, 2021 increased to $33.0 million from $17.5 million at December 31, 2020, an increase of $5.4 million. The increase in current liabilities is comprised of the following: an increase accounts payable of $2.6 million; an increase in unearned revenue of $2.4 million; and an increase in contingent liabilities of $0.8 million.

Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was approximately $3.9 million, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $6.7 million in the same period a year ago. Cash provided by operating activities for the nine-month period is comprised of the following: net income of $5.6 million; cash provided by adjustments for non-cash items of $1.4 million; and cash used in working capital adjustments of $3.2 million. The primary drivers of decreased working capital during the current quarter were the increase in accounts receivable of $4.4 million, the increase of inventories of $2.5 million in an effort to mitigate recent supply chain disruptions and the decrease in accrued income taxes of $1.3 million partially offset by the increase in deferred revenue of $2.7 million, the decrease in contract assets of $1.5 million and the increase in accounts payable of $1.0 million.

Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $9.6 million, compared to cash used in investing activities of $10.7 million in the same period a year ago. Cash used in investing activities was for the acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics in the Industrial and Transportation Products segment and capital expenditures in the normal course of business.

Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to cash provided by financing activities of $8.5 million in the same period a year ago. Cash provided by financing activities for the year-to-date period was primarily related to: $8.9 million borrowings on bank debt related to the acquisitions of Komtek, Global-Tek, Machining Technology and Emergency Hydraulics; offset by cash used for $4.8 million in payments on bank debt and $2.0 million in payments on notes.

The Company is actively managing its business to maintain cash flow and liquidity. We believe that cash and availability on our revolving credit facility to be sufficient to fund working capital needs and service principal and interest payments due related to the bank debt and notes payable. The Company had $13.9 million available to borrow on the revolving credit facility at September 30, 2021. Notwithstanding the Company's expectations, if the Company's operating results decrease as the result of pressures on the business due to, for example, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions, increased costs of supplies and materials, currency fluctuations, regulatory issues, or the Company's failure to execute its business plans, the Company may require additional financing, or may be unable to comply with its obligations under the credit facility, and its lenders could demand repayment of any amounts outstanding under the Company’s credit facility. As the company cannot predict the duration or scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company’s customers and suppliers, the negative financial impact to the Company’s results cannot be reasonably estimated, but could be material. In addition, see Note 14 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

From time to time, the Company enters into performance and payment bonds in the ordinary course of business. These bonds are secured by certain assets of the Company by the surety until the Company’s completion of the requirements of the commercial air handling contract. At September 30, 2021, the Company has secured performance and payment bonds in the amount of $8.3 million as surety on completion of the requirements of certain commercial air handling contracts. The Company has no other off-balance sheet arrangements (as defined in Regulation S-K Item 303 paragraph (a)(4)(ii)) that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditure or capital resources.

ITEM 3. MARKET RISK

This item is not applicable to the Company as a smaller reporting company.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of September 30, 2021, an evaluation was performed, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer along with the Company's Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer along with the Company's Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") were effective as of September, 2021 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files and submits under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that (1) pertain to maintaining records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company assets, (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 the Company's receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of the Company's management and directors, and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or the timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposal of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer along with the Company's Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company's internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. An internal control system no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the 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. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Also, any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls in future periods are subject to the risk that those internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in business conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
