Kewaunee Scientific Corporation
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
A. Financial Information
The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Kewaunee Scientific Corporation (the "Company") have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included in the Company's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of April 30, 2022 included in this interim period filing has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and related notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
The preparation of the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

B. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. During the periods ended October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, the Company had cash deposits in excess of FDIC insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses from such deposits. Restricted cash includes bank deposits of subsidiaries used for performance guarantees against customer orders.
The Company includes restricted cash along with the cash balance for presentation in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The reconciliation between the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows is as follows:
October 31, 2022April 30, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents$9,419 $4,433 
Restricted cash6,898 2,461 
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash$16,317 $6,894 

C. Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when control of a good or service promised in a contract (i.e., performance obligation) is transferred to a customer. Control is obtained when a customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from that good or service. The majority of the Company's revenues are recognized over time as the customer receives control as the Company performs work under a contract. However, a portion of the Company's revenues are recognized at a point-in-time as control is transferred at a distinct point in time per the terms of a contract.

A summary of net sales transferred to customers over time and at a point in time for the periods ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 is as follows (in thousands):

Contract Balances
The closing balances of contract assets included $12,742,000 in accounts receivable and $1,629,000 in other assets at October 31, 2022. The opening balance of contract assets arising from contracts with customers included $9,287,000 in accounts receivable and $1,293,000 in other assets at April 30, 2022. The closing and opening balances of contract liabilities included in deferred revenue arising from contracts with customers were $11,398,000 at October 31, 2022 and $3,529,000 at April 30, 2022. The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, and deferred revenue which are disclosed in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In general, the Company receives payments from customers based on a billing schedule established in its contracts. Unbilled receivables represent amounts earned which have not yet been billed in accordance with contractually stated billing terms and are included in receivables on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Receivables are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional and the Company has a right to invoice the customer. Deferred revenue relates to payments received in advance of performance under the contract. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue as (or when) the Company performs under the contract. Approximately 100% of the contract liability balances at April 30, 2022 and October 31, 2022 are expected to be recognized as revenue during the respective succeeding 12 months.
D. Inventories
The Company measures inventory using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):

E. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and equivalents, mutual funds, and the cash surrender value of life insurance policies. The carrying value of these assets and liabilities approximates their fair value. The following tables summarize the Company's fair value hierarchy for its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022 (in thousands):

(2)Plan liabilities are equal to the individual participants' account balances and other earned retirement benefits.

F. Long-term Debt and Other Credit Arrangements
At April 30, 2022, advances of $1.6 million were outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility. The Company had standby letters of credit outstanding of $716,000 at April 30, 2022. Amounts available under the revolving credit facility were $2.4 million at April 30, 2022. At April 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all the financial covenants under its revolving credit facility.
On June 27, 2022, the Company terminated the Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo, National Bank. At the time of termination, there were no borrowings under the Credit Agreement, and the Company did not incur any material termination penalties as a result of the termination.

G. Sale-Leaseback Financing Transaction

On December 22, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Real Property with CAI Investments Sub-Series 100 LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the "Buyer"), for the Company’s headquarters and manufacturing facilities (the "Property") located at 2700 West Front Street in Statesville, North Carolina (the "Sale Agreement").
The Sale Agreement was finalized on March 24, 2022 and coincided with the Company and the Buyer entering into a 20-year lease, effective on such date, between the Company and CAI Investments Medical Products I Master Lessee LLC ("Lessor"), an affiliate of Buyer (the "Lease Agreement"). At the same time, the Buyer and its affiliates formed a new, debt-financed affiliate, CAI Investments Medical Products I, DST ("Trust"), and contributed the Property to the Trust. According to the terms of the contemporaneous lease, the Trust leased the Property to its affiliated Lessor, which in turn sub-leased the Property to the Company (together with the Sale Agreement, the "Sale-Leaseback Arrangement").
The Sale-Leaseback Arrangement is repayable over a 20-year term, with four renewal options of five years each. Under the terms of the Lease Agreement, the Company’s initial basic rent is approximately $158,000 per month, with annual increases of approximately 2% each year of the initial term.
8

The Company accounted for the Sale-Leaseback Arrangement as a financing transaction with the Buyer in accordance with ASC 842, "Leases," as the Lease Agreement was determined to be a finance lease. The Company concluded the Lease Agreement met the qualifications to be classified as a finance lease due to the significance of the present value of the lease payments, using a discount rate of 4.75% to reflect the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, compared to the fair value of the leased property as of the lease commencement date. In measuring the lease payments for the present value analysis, the Company elected the practical expedient to combine the lease component (the leased facilities) with the non-lease component (property management provided by the Buyer/Lessor) into a single lease component.
The presence of a finance lease indicates that control of the Property has not transferred to the Buyer/Lessor and, as such, the transaction was deemed a failed sale-leaseback and must be accounted for as a financing arrangement. As a result of this determination, the Company is viewed as having received the sale proceeds from the Buyer/Lessor in the form of a hypothetical loan collateralized by its leased facilities. The hypothetical loan is payable as principal and interest in the form of “lease payments” to the Buyer/Lessor. As such, the Company will not derecognize the Property from its books for accounting purposes until the lease ends. No gain or loss was recognized under GAAP related to the Sale-Leaseback Arrangement.
As of October 31, 2022, the carrying value of the financing liability was $29,067,000, net of $738,000 in debt issuance costs, of which $608,000 was classified as current on the Consolidated Balance Sheet with $28,459,000 classified as long-term. As of April 30, 2022, the carrying value of the financing liability was $29,350,000, net of $768,000 in debt issuance costs, of which $575,000 was classified as current on the Consolidated Balance Sheet with $28,775,000 classified as long-term. The monthly lease payments are split between a reduction of principal and interest expense using the effective interest rate method. Interest expense associated with the financing arrangement was $330,000 and $662,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022, respectively.
The Company will depreciate the building down to zero over the 20-year assumed economic life of the Property so that at the end of the lease term, the remaining carrying amount of the financing liability will equal the carrying amount of the land of $41,000.
Remaining future cash payments related to the financing liability as of October 31, 2022 are as follows:

H. Leases
The Company recognizes lease assets and lease liabilities reflecting the rights and obligations created by operating type leases for real estate and equipment in both the U.S. and internationally and financing leases for a truck and IT equipment in the U.S. At October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, right-of-use assets totaled $9,908,000 and $7,573,000, respectively. Operating cash paid to settle lease liabilities was $1,026,000 and $1,006,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively. The Company's leases have remaining lease terms of up to 9 years. In addition, some of the leases may include options to extend the leases for up to 5 years or options to terminate the leases within 1 year. Operating lease expenses were $900,000 and $1,734,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022, inclusive of period cost for short-term leases, not included in lease liabilities, of $398,000 and $708,000. Operating lease expenses were $707,000 and $1,555,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2021, inclusive of period cost for short-term leases, not included in lease liabilities, of $201,000 and $549,000.
At October 31, 2022, the weighted average remaining lease term for the capitalized operating leases was 5.5 years and the weighted average discount rate was 4.9%. For the financing leases, the weighted average remaining lease term was 3.6 years and the weighted average discount rate was 7.0%. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of those lease payments. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable.

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable leases as of October 31, 2022 were as follows:

I. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflects the assumed exercise of outstanding options and the conversion of restricted stock units ("RSUs") under the Company's various stock compensation plans, except when RSUs and options have an antidilutive effect. There were 94,930 and 128,704 antidilutive RSUs and options outstanding at October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively. The following is a reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average common shares outstanding (in thousands):

J. Stock Options and Stock-based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation costs related to stock options and other stock awards granted by the Company as operating expenses over their vesting period.
In June 2022, the Company granted 54,279 RSUs under the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan ("2017 Plan"). These RSUs include a service component that vests over a three-year period. The recognized expense is based upon the vesting period for service criteria. The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense during the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 of $196,000 and $327,000, respectively, with the remaining estimated stock-based compensation expense of $1,173,000 to be recorded over the remaining vesting periods. The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense during the three and six months ended October 31, 2021 of $131,000 and $325,000, respectively. Directors' fees paid with shares of common stock in lieu of cash in accordance with Director compensation guidelines were $41,000 for each of the six month periods ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 and were also included in the stock-based compensation on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
K. Income Taxes
Income tax expense of $570,000 and $949,000 was recorded for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022, respectively. Income tax expense of $195,000 and $446,000 was recorded for the three and six months ended October 31, 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate was 125.0% and 818.1% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate was (6.8)% and (11.3)% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2021, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate for the period is primarily due to the impact of foreign operations which are taxed at different rates than the U.S. tax rate of 21% and the recording of a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset which resulted in the elimination of any U.S. income tax benefit.
In August 2019, the Company revoked its indefinite reinvestment of foreign unremitted earnings position in compliance with ASC 740 "Income Taxes" and terminated its indefinite reinvestment of unremitted earnings assertion for the Singapore, China, and Kewaunee Labway India Pvt. Ltd. international subsidiaries. The Company has a deferred tax liability of $1,117,000 and $976,000 for the withholding tax related to Kewaunee Labway India Pvt. Ltd. as of October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022,
10

respectively. The Company recorded all deferred tax assets and liabilities related to its outside basis differences in its foreign subsidiaries consistent with ASC 740.
L. Defined Benefit Pension Plans
The Company has non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all domestic salaried and hourly employees. These plans were amended as of April 30, 2005; no further benefits have been, or will be, earned under the plans, subsequent to the amendment date, and no additional participants will be added to the plans. There were no Company contributions paid to the plans for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021. The Company assumed an expected long-term rate of return of 7.75% for the periods ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021.

N. New Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," which replaces the current incurred loss method used for determining credit losses on financial assets, including trade receivables, with an expected credit loss method. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company will adopt this standard in fiscal year 2024. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The Company's 2022 Annual Report to Stockholders on Form 10-K contains management's discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations as of and for the year ended April 30, 2022. The following discussion and analysis describes material changes in the Company's financial condition since April 30, 2022. The analysis of results of operations compares the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 with the comparable periods of the prior year.
Results of Operations
Sales for the quarter were $54,564,000, an increase from sales of $39,031,000 in the comparable period of the prior year. Domestic sales for the quarter were $37,991,000, up 26.9% from sales of $29,934,000 in the comparable period of the prior year. The increase in Domestic sales was predominantly from higher input costs being rolled into product pricing. International sales for the quarter were $16,573,000, up 82.2% from sales of $9,097,000 in the comparable period of the prior year. International sales increased when compared to the prior year period due to the commencement of delivery of large projects booked in the prior fiscal year.
Sales for the six months ended October 31, 2022 were $104,687,000, an increase from sales of $78,524,000 in the comparable period of the prior year. Domestic sales for the quarter were $75,459,000, up 26.6% from sales of $59,597,000 in the comparable period of the prior year. The increase in Domestic sales was predominantly from higher input costs being rolled into product pricing. International sales for the quarter were $29,228,000, up 54.4% from sales of $18,927,000 in the comparable period of the prior year. International sales increased when compared to the prior year period due to the commencement of delivery of large projects booked in the prior fiscal year.
The Company's order backlog was $157.8 million at October 31, 2022, as compared to $139.7 million at October 31, 2021, and $173.9 million at April 30, 2022.
The gross profit margin for the three months ended October 31, 2022 was 15.9% of sales, as compared to 9.2% of sales in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The gross profit margin for the six months ended October 31, 2022 was 14.2% of sales, as compared to 11.8% of sales in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The increase in gross profit margin percentage for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 is primarily due to higher input costs being rolled into domestic pricing for the current fiscal year as compared to the prior year comparable periods. During the three and six months ended October 31, 2021, the Company's gross profit margin percentage was unfavorably impacted by increases in steel, wood, and epoxy resin raw material costs that could not be added to existing fixed-price contracts of $2,112,000 and $3,763,000, respectively.
Operating expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2022 were $7,946,000, or 14.6% of sales, as compared to $6,487,000, or 16.6% of sales, in the comparable period of the prior year. Operating expenses for the six months ended October 31, 2022 were $14,538,000, or 13.9% of sales, as compared to $13,252,000, or 16.9% of sales, in the comparable period of the prior year. The increase in operating expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2022 was primarily due to increases in

consulting and professional fees of $278,000, and increases in international operating expenses of $940,000, partially offset by reductions in administrative wages, benefits, incentive and stock-based compensation of $70,000, marketing expense of $62,000, and corporate governance expenses of $36,000. The increase in operating expenses for the six months ended October 31, 2022 was primarily due to increases in consulting and professional fees of $476,000, and increases in international operating expenses of $1,308,000, partially offset by reductions in administrative wages, benefits, incentive and stock-based compensation of $700,000, marketing expense of $190,000, and corporate governance expenses of $11,000. The increase in operating expenses for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 also included a one-time charge related to the write-down of a prior year insurance claim in the amount of $260,000. The increase in international operating expenses for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 is related to the continued sales growth in the International operating segment.
Interest expense, net was $370,000 and $754,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022, as compared to $132,000 and $238,000 for the comparable periods of the prior year. The changes in interest expense were primarily due to changes in the levels of bank borrowings and the Sale-Leaseback financing transaction.
The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 was 125.0% and 818.1%, respectively, as compared to (6.8)% and (11.3)% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2021, respectively. Income tax expense of $570,000 and $195,000 was recorded for the three months ended October 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Income tax expense of $949,000 and $446,000 was recorded for the six months ended October 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.The change in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 reflects the impact of international operations which are taxed at different rates, combined with no U.S. tax benefit being recorded for the most recent quarter due to the Company's full valuation allowance position. See Note K, Income Taxes, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Non-controlling interests related to the Company's subsidiaries not 100% owned by the Company increased net loss by $129,000 and $157,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022, compared to $18,000 and $56,000 for the comparable periods of the prior year. The change in the net earnings attributable to the non-controlling interest in the current period was due to changes in earnings of the subsidiaries in the related period.
Net loss was $243,000, or $(0.09) per diluted share, for the three months ended October 31, 2022, compared to $3,100,000, or $(1.11) per diluted share, in the prior year period. Net loss was $990,000, or $(0.35) per diluted share, for the six months ended October 31, 2022, compared to $4,445,000, or $(1.60) per diluted share, in the prior year period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity have historically been funds generated from operating activities. In addition, on March 24, 2022, we executed a Sale-Leaseback financing transaction with respect to our manufacturing and corporate facilities in Statesville, North Carolina to provide additional liquidity. See Note G, Sale-Leaseback Financing Transaction for more information. Additionally, certain machinery and equipment are financed by non-cancellable operating leases. The Company believes that these sources will be sufficient to support ongoing business requirements in the current fiscal year, including capital expenditures.
The Company had working capital of $47,756,000 at October 31, 2022, compared to $49,272,000 at April 30, 2022. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.1-to-1.0 at October 31, 2022, compared to 2.2-to-1.0 at April 30, 2022.
As previously reported in the Company's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company was compliant at April 30, 2022 with all of the financial covenants under the revolving credit facility. On June 27, 2022, the Company terminated the Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo, National Bank. At the time of termination, there were no borrowings under the Credit Agreement, and the Company did not incur any material termination penalties as a result of the termination. For additional information concerning our credit facility, see Note F, Long-Term Debt and Other Credit Arrangements.
The Company used cash of $586,000 during the six months ended October 31, 2022, primarily for decreases in accounts payable and other accrued expenses of $6.4 million and increases in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $2.2 million, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue of $7.9 million. The increase in deferred revenue is primarily related to advance payments received for a large international order. During the six months ended October 31, 2022, the Company used net cash of $919,000 in investing activities, all of which was used for capital expenditures. The Company's financing activities provided cash of $11,525,000 during the six months ended October 31, 2022, primarily from proceeds of the sale-leaseback financing transaction that was previously recorded as a note receivable at April 30, 2022.

Outlook
The Company's ability to predict future demand for its products continues to be limited given its role as subcontractor or supplier to dealers for subcontractors. Demand for the Company's products is also dependent upon the number of laboratory construction projects planned and/or current progress in projects already under construction. The Company's earnings are also impacted by fluctuations in prevailing pricing for projects in the laboratory construction marketplace and increased costs of raw materials, including steel, wood, and epoxy resin, and whether the Company can increase product prices to customers in amounts that correspond to such increases without materially and adversely affecting sales. Additionally, since prices are normally quoted on a firm basis in the industry, the Company bears the burden of possible increases in labor and material costs between the quotation of an order and delivery of a product.
The Company continues to improve the quality of the order backlog by delivering a portion of the lower margin direct sales orders and replacing those orders in the backlog with higher margin product orders. This dynamic, as well as the Company’s ability to focus solely on supporting its dealers and distribution channel partners domestically and the continued growth of its International business, positions Kewaunee well as the Company moves through the balance of the fiscal year.
