MODINE MANUFACTURING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In millions, except per share amounts)
(unaudited)

Note 1: General



The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Modine Manufacturing Company (“Modine” or the “Company”) were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  The financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods.  Results for the first three months of fiscal 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes in Modine’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2024.

Supplier finance programs

The Company facilitates a voluntary supplier finance program through a financial institution that allows certain suppliers in the U.S. and Europe to request early payment for invoices, at a discount, from the financial institution.  The Company or the financial institution may terminate the supplier finance program upon 90 days’ notice.  The Company’s obligations to its suppliers, including amounts due and payment terms, are consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the program.  The Company is not party to the arrangements between the participating suppliers and the financial institution.  Under this program, the Company confirms the validity of supplier invoices to the financial institution and remits payments to it based on the original payment terms, which typically range from 60 to 120 days.  The outstanding obligations under this program, included within accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets, totaled $18.2 million and $23.6 million at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.


New accounting guidance

Segment reporting disclosures
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued new disclosure guidance for reportable segments.  The new guidance will require disclosure of significant segment expenses, which are expenses that are (i) significant to the segment, (ii) regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and (iii) included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. In addition, the new guidance will require companies to disclose the title and position of their CODM and expand interim disclosures to include the majority of the annual segment disclosures.  The definition of and method for determining reportable segments is unchanged.  The new disclosure requirements will become effective for the Company’s fiscal 2025 annual financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the new disclosures, but does not expect the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.


Note 2: Acquisitions and Dispositions


Acquisition of Scott Springfield Mfg. Inc.
On March 1, 2024, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of Scott Springfield Mfg. Inc. (“Scott Springfield Manufacturing”) for consideration totaling $184.1 million. In July 2024 and upon finalization of the working capital adjustment, the Company paid $2.4 million to the seller.

MODINE MANUFACTURING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In millions, except per share amounts)
(unaudited)
Based in Calgary, Canada, Scott Springfield Manufacturing is a leading manufacturer of air handling units to customers in the data center, telecommunications, healthcare, and aerospace markets.  This acquisition expanded the Company’s product offerings and customer base in the high-growth data center and indoor air quality markets in the U.S. and Canada.  Since the date of the acquisition, the Company has reported the financial results of the Scott Springfield Manufacturing business within the Climate Solutions segment.  For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company included $39.7 million of net sales and $6.5 million of operating income within its consolidated statement of operations attributable to Scott Springfield Manufacturing.  The $6.5 million of operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 included a $1.6 million charge to cost of sales, recorded at Corporate, related to an inventory purchase accounting adjustment.

The Company has preliminarily allocated the purchase price of Scott Springfield Manufacturing to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date.  During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company completed its market and trade name analyses and reduced the preliminary fair value of the trade name intangible asset by $9.6 million.  This measurement period adjustment resulted in a corresponding decrease in the deferred income tax liability of $2.2 million and an increase in goodwill of $7.4 million.

The preliminary purchase price allocation, as of June 30, 2024, was as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents
 
$
0.3
 
Trade accounts receivable
   
27.5
 
Inventories

(1.3
)

(22.2
)
Other liabilities
   
(7.8
)
Purchase price
 
$
184.1
 

At the time the June 30, 2024 financial statements were finalized, the Company was continuing its review of the fair value estimates for certain assets acquired, including intangible assets, and liabilities assumed.  As part of its purchase accounting and integration activities, the Company is in the process of assessing, refining and harmonizing the internal controls and accounting processes of the acquired business with those of the Company.  As part of this process, the Company is continuing to review the appropriateness of accruals and reserves, including those related to accounts receivable, inventory, and product warranties.  As such, the allocation of purchase price above is considered preliminary.  The Company expects to complete its accounting for the acquisition of Scott Springfield Manufacturing during the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

The supplemental pro forma financial information above is based upon the Company’s historical results and the historical results of Scott Springfield Manufacturing, which have been translated from Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars using the historical average foreign exchange rates.  The pro forma information for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 includes adjustments for: (i) amortization and depreciation expense totaling $3.0 million for acquired tangible and intangible assets, (ii) estimated interest expense of $1.5 million resulting from acquisition-related borrowings, and (iii) the estimated income tax impacts related to the pro forma adjustments, considering the statutory tax rates within Canada.  The pro forma financial information does not reflect any expected revenue or cost synergies.


Acquisition of Napps Technology Corporation

On July 1, 2023, the Company acquired substantially all of the net operating assets of Napps Technology Corporation (“Napps”), a Texas-based manufacturer of air- and water-cooled chillers, condensing units and heat pumps, for consideration totaling $5.8 million.  The Company paid $4.8 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and paid the remaining $1.0 million to the seller in July 2024.  The Company has reported the financial results of the Napps business within the Climate Solutions segment since the date of the acquisition.  For the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company included $1.4 million of net sales within its consolidated statement of operations attributable to Napps.


Disposition of Germany automotive businesses
In October 2023, the Company sold three automotive businesses based in Germany (the “disposal group”) to affiliates of Regent, L.P.  Prior to the disposition, the Company reported the financial results of the disposal group within its Performance Technologies segment.  Net sales of the disposal group included within the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 totaled $24.3 million.

Contract assets, included within other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets, primarily consist of capitalized costs related to customer-owned tooling contracts, wherein the customer has guaranteed reimbursement, and assets recorded for revenue recognized over time, which represent the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not yet billed.  The $2.1 million decrease in contract assets during the first three months of fiscal 2025 primarily resulted from decreases in contract assets for revenue recognized over time and capitalized costs related to customer-owned tooling contracts.

Contract liabilities, included within other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, consist of payments received in advance of satisfying performance obligations under customer contracts, including contracts for data center cooling products and customer-owned tooling.  The $13.0 million decrease in contract liabilities during the first three months of fiscal 2025 primarily resulted from the Company’s satisfaction of performance obligations under contracts that had required advanced payments, largely associated with long inventory lead times.

Note 4: Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
Level 3 – Model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs are not observable.

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classifies such measurements as Level 1.  In some cases, where market prices are not available, the Company uses observable market-based inputs to calculate fair value, in which case the measurements are classified as Level 2.  If quoted or observable market prices are not available, the Company determines fair value based upon valuation models that use, where possible, market-based data such as interest rates, yield curves or currency rates.  These measurements are classified as Level 3.

The carrying values of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term debt approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.  The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is disclosed in Note 17.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company contributed $1.5 million to its U.S. pension plan.

In June 2024, the Company approved the termination of its U.S. pension plan, subject to approvals from the Internal Revenue Service and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation.  The Company intends to offer certain participants the option to receive their pension benefits in the form of a lump-sum distribution prior to purchasing annuity contracts to transfer its remaining obligations under the plan.  In connection with the plan termination, the Company expects to make a cash contribution in the range of $15.0 million to $30.0 million to fully fund the plan, on a plan termination basis, and to record non-cash pension settlement charges totaling approximately $120.0 million to $130.0 million during fiscal 2026.  The timing and amount of the final cash contribution and settlement charges could materially differ from the Company’s estimates due to the nature and timing of participant settlements, prevailing market and economic conditions, the duration of the termination process, or other factors.

Note 6: Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s stock-based incentive programs consist of the following: (i) a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) for officers and other executives that authorizes grants of stock awards, stock options, and performance-based awards for retention and performance, (ii) a discretionary equity program for other management and key employees, and (iii) stock awards for non-employee directors.

The Company calculates compensation expense based upon the fair value of the awards at the time of grant and subsequently recognizes expense ratably over the respective vesting periods of the stock-based awards. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $4.2 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company granted performance-based stock awards and restricted stock awards.  The performance metrics for the performance-based stock awards are based upon a target three-year average cash flow return on invested capital and a target three-year average growth in consolidated net earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and certain other adjustments (“Adjusted EBITDA”) at the end of the performance period ending March 31, 2027.

The fair value of stock-based compensation awards granted during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

Note 7: Restructuring Activities

During the first three months of fiscal 2025, restructuring and repositioning expenses primarily consisted of severance expenses recorded in the Performance Technologies segment.  These severance charges were primarily related to the closure of a technical service center and other targeted headcount reductions in Europe.  In addition, the Company incurred equipment transfer costs within the Performance Technologies and Climate Solutions segments.  These restructuring activities are part of the Company’s transformational initiatives supported by 80/20 principles and include product line transfers intended to achieve production efficiency improvements in its manufacturing facilities.

Note 9: Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was 28.2 percent and 24.5 percent, respectively.  The effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 is higher than the first quarter of the prior year, primarily due to changes in the mix and amount of foreign and U.S. earnings.
The Company records valuation allowances against its net deferred tax assets to the extent it determines it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized in the future.  Each quarter, the Company evaluates the probability that its deferred tax assets will be realized and determines whether valuation allowances or adjustments thereto are needed.  This determination involves judgement and the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including expectations of future taxable income and tax planning strategies.  In addition, the Company considers the duration of statutory carryforward periods and historical financial results.
At June 30, 2024, valuation allowances against deferred tax assets in the U.S. and in certain foreign jurisdictions totaled $44.2 million and $22.8 million, respectively.  The Company will maintain the valuation allowances in each applicable tax jurisdiction until it determines it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will be realized, thereby eliminating the need for a valuation allowance.  Future events or circumstances, such as lower taxable income or unfavorable changes in the financial outlook of the Company’s operations in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions, could necessitate the establishment of further valuation allowances.
Accounting policies for interim reporting require the Company to adjust its effective tax rate each quarter to be consistent with its estimated annual effective tax rate.  Under this methodology, the Company applies its estimated annual income tax rate to its year-to-date ordinary earnings to derive its income tax provision each quarter.  The Company records the tax impacts of certain significant, unusual or infrequently occurring items in the period in which they occur.  In addition, the Company excludes the impact of operations anticipated to generate net operating losses for the full fiscal year from the overall effective tax rate calculation and instead records them discretely based upon year-to-date results.  The Company does not anticipate a significant change in unrecognized tax benefits during the remainder of fiscal 2025.

Note 14: Goodwill and Intangible Assets

During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company recorded a measurement period adjustment to reduce the fair value of the acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing trade name by $9.6 million. This purchase accounting adjustment resulted in a $7.4 million increase in goodwill. See Note 2 for additional information.

As a result of the segment realignment during the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Companys goodwill now resides entirely within the Climate Solutions segment. The following table presents a roll forward of the carrying value of goodwill from March 31, 2024 to June 30, 2024 under the Companys current segment structure.

The Company maintains a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks that provides for a multi-currency $275.0 million revolving credit facility and U.S. dollar- and euro-denominated term loan facilities maturing in October 2027.  In addition, the credit agreement provides for shorter-duration swingline loans.  Borrowings under the revolving credit, swingline and term loan facilities bear interest at a variable rate, based upon the applicable reference rate and including a margin percentage dependent upon the Company’s leverage ratio, as described below.  At June 30, 2024, the weighted-average interest rate for revolving credit facility borrowings and the term loans was 6.8 and 6.5 percent, respectively. 

Based upon the terms of the credit agreement, the Company classifies borrowings under its revolving credit and swingline facilities as long-term and short-term debt, respectively, on its consolidated balance sheets. At June 30, 2024, the Companys borrowings under its revolving credit facility totaled $105.0 million and domestic letters of credit totaled $6.2 million. As a result, available borrowing capacity under the Company’s revolving credit facility was $163.8 million as of June 30, 2024. At March 31, 2024, the Companys borrowings under its revolving credit and swingline facilities totaled $90.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively.

The Company also maintains credit agreements for its foreign subsidiaries. The outstanding short-term borrowings related to these foreign credit agreements totaled $4.3 million and $10.0 million at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

Indebtedness under the Company’s credit agreement and Senior Note agreements is secured by liens on substantially all domestic assets.  These agreements further require compliance with various covenants that may limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness; grant liens; make investments, loans, or guarantees; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; and make restricted payments including dividends. In addition, the agreements may require prepayment in the event of certain asset sales.

Financial covenants within its credit agreements include a leverage ratio covenant, which requires the Company to limit its consolidated indebtedness, less a portion of its cash balances, both as defined by the credit agreements, to no more than three and one-quarter times consolidated net earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and certain other adjustments (“Adjusted EBITDA”).  The Company must also maintain a ratio of Adjusted EBITDA of at least three times consolidated interest expense.  As of June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants.

The Company estimates the fair value of long-term debt using discounted future cash flows at rates offered to the Company for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities.  As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt approximated fair value, with the exception of the Senior Notes, which had an aggregate fair value of $122.0 million and $120.9 million, respectively.  The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.  Refer to Note 4 for the definition of a Level 2 fair value measurement.

Note 18: Risks, Uncertainties, Contingencies and Litigation

Environmental
The Company has recorded environmental monitoring and remediation accruals related to manufacturing facilities in the U.S., one of which the Company currently owns and operates, and at its former manufacturing facility in the Netherlands.  These accruals primarily relate to soil and groundwater contamination at facilities where past operations followed practices and procedures that were considered acceptable under then-existing regulations, or where the Company is a successor to the obligations of prior owners, and current laws and regulations require investigative and/or remedial work to ensure sufficient environmental compliance.  In instances where a range of loss can be reasonably estimated for a probable environmental liability, but no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the Company accrues the minimum of the range.  The Company’s accruals for environmental matters totaled $17.5 million and $17.6 million as of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. As additional information becomes available regarding environmental matters, the Company will re-assess the liabilities and revise the estimated accruals, if necessary.  While it is possible that the ultimate environmental remediation costs may be in excess of amounts accrued, the Company believes, based upon currently available information, that the ultimate outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position.  However, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable outcomes could occur, including significant monetary damages.

Other litigation
In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are named as defendants in various lawsuits and enforcement proceedings by private parties, governmental agencies and/or others in which claims are asserted against Modine.  The Company believes that any additional loss in excess of amounts already accrued would not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, results of operations, and cash flows.  In addition, management expects that the liabilities which may ultimately result from such lawsuits or proceedings, if any, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.

Note 20: Segment Information

Effective April 1, 2024, the Company moved its Coatings business, which was previously managed by and reported within the Performance Technologies segment, under the leadership of the Climate Solutions segment.  Under this refined organizational structure, the Coatings business is better aligned with the Climate Solution’s Heat Transfer Products business, which serves similar heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration markets and customers.  The Company believes that unifying these complementary businesses allows it to better focus resources on targeted growth and allow for a more efficient application of 80/20 principles to optimize profit margins and cash flow.  Segment financial information for the prior periods has been recast to conform to the current presentation.

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

When we use the terms “Modine,” “we,” “us,” the “Company,” or “our” in this report, we are referring to Modine Manufacturing Company.  Our fiscal year ends on March 31 and, accordingly, all references to quarters refer to our fiscal quarters.  The quarter ended June 30, 2024 was the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Fiscal 2024 acquisitions and dispositions
On March 1, 2024, we acquired Scott Springfield Mfg. Inc. (“Scott Springfield Manufacturing”), a Canadian-based manufacturer of air handling units, for consideration totaling $184.1 million.  On July 1, 2023, we acquired Napps Technology Corporation (“Napps”), a Texas-based manufacturer of air- and water-cooled chillers, condensing units and heat pumps, for consideration totaling $5.8 million.  These acquisitions expanded our data center and indoor air quality product portfolios and support our growth strategy and mission of improving indoor air quality.  We have reported the financial results of these businesses within the Climate Solutions segment since the acquisition dates.

In October 2023, we sold three automotive businesses based in Germany.  The sale of these businesses, which produce air- and liquid-cooled products for internal combustion, diesel and gasoline engines for the European automotive market, supports our strategic prioritization of resources towards higher-margin technologies.

See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

First quarter highlights
Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $39.1 million, or 6 percent, from the first quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily due to higher sales in our Climate Solutions segment, partially offset by lower sales in our Performance Technologies segment.  The higher Climate Solutions segment sales included $41.1 million of incremental sales from the acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing and Napps businesses.  The lower Performance Technologies segment sales were largely driven by the $24.3 million impact of the disposition of three automotive businesses in Germany during the third quarter of fiscal 2024.  Cost of sales increased $4.4 million, or 1 percent.  Gross profit increased $34.7 million and gross margin improved 400 basis points to 24.6 percent.  Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $21.4 million and included higher compensation-related expenses and incremental expenses from Scott Springfield Manufacturing, including amortization expense of acquired intangible assets.  Operating income of $74.4 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $7.9 million from the prior year, primarily due to higher earnings in our operating segments, partially offset by higher SG&A and restructuring expenses.

Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

First quarter net sales of $661.5 million were $39.1 million, or 6 percent, higher than the first quarter of the prior year, primarily due to $70.6 million of higher sales in our Climate Solutions segment, including $41.1 million of incremental sales from the acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing and Napps businesses, partially offset by $34.1 million of lower sales in our Performance Technologies segment, largely driven by the $24.3 million impact of the disposition of three automotive businesses in Germany during the third quarter of fiscal 2024.  From a product group perspective, compared with the first quarter of the prior year, sales of data center cooling products increased $94.4 million, while sales of liquid-cooled and heat transfer products decreased $30.7 million and $29.0 million, respectively.

First quarter cost of sales increased $4.4 million, or 1 percent, yet decreased 400 basis points as a percentage of sales to 75.4 percent, primarily due to favorable sales mix, higher average selling prices, lower raw material costs, which decreased approximately $9.0 million, and improved operating efficiencies.  These favorable drivers were partially offset by higher labor and inflationary costs and a $1.6 million inventory purchase accounting adjustment recorded at Corporate related to the acquisition of Scott Springfield Manufacturing.

As a result of higher sales and lower cost of sales as a percentage of sales, first quarter gross profit increased $34.7 million and gross margin improved 400 basis points to 24.6 percent.

First quarter SG&A expenses increased $21.4 million, or 35 percent.  As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased by 260 basis points.  The increase in SG&A expenses includes higher compensation-related expenses, which increased approximately $13.0 million and included incremental expenses from the acquired businesses.  The higher compensation-related expenses include higher incentive compensation expenses driven by improved financial results.  In addition, SG&A expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 included $4.6 million of incremental amortization expense of acquired intangible assets.

Restructuring expenses of $5.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 primarily consisted of severance expenses in the Performance Technologies segment.

Operating income of $74.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $7.9 million compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily due to higher gross profit in our operating segments, partially offset by higher SG&A and restructuring expenses.

Interest expense during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $1.6 million compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily due to higher borrowings on our revolving credit facility, which we used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of Scott Springfield Manufacturing.

The provision for income taxes was $18.8 million and $14.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively.  The $4.1 million increase was primarily due to higher earnings in the current year, partially offset by changes in the mix and amount of foreign and U.S. earnings, as compared with the same period in the prior year.

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Effective April 1, 2024, we moved our Coatings business, which was previously managed by and reported within the Performance Technologies segment, under the leadership of the Climate Solutions segment.  Under this refined organizational structure, the Coatings business is better aligned with the Climate Solution’s Heat Transfer Products business, which serves similar heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration (“HVAC&R”) markets and customers.  We believe that unifying these complementary businesses will allow for us to better focus resources on targeted growth and allow for a more efficient application of 80/20 principles to optimize profit margins and cash flow.  Segment financial information for fiscal 2024 has been recast to conform to the current presentation.

Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

Climate Solutions net sales increased $70.6 million, or 25 percent, from the first quarter of fiscal 2024 to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to higher sales volume, including $41.1 million of incremental sales from the acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing and Napps businesses.  Compared with the first quarter of the prior year, sales of data center cooling and HVAC&R products increased $94.4 million and $5.1 million, respectively.  The increase in sales of data center products includes sales from the acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing business and organic sales growth to hyperscale and colocation customers.  Sales of heat transfer products decreased $29.0 million, largely due to lower sales to heat pump customers in Europe.

Climate Solutions cost of sales increased $45.6 million, or 22 percent, from the first quarter of fiscal 2024 to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to higher sales volume and, to a lesser extent, higher labor and inflationary costs.  These increases were partially offset by improved operating efficiencies and lower raw material costs, which decreased approximately $2.0 million.  As a percentage of sales, cost of sales decreased 180 basis points to 71.8 percent, primarily due to favorable sales mix.

As a result of the higher sales and lower cost of sales as a percentage of sales, gross profit increased $25.0 million and gross margin improved 180 basis points to 28.2 percent.

SG&A expenses increased $13.6 million compared with the first quarter of the prior year.  As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased by 190 basis points.  The increase in SG&A expenses includes higher compensation-related expenses, which increased approximately $5.0 million and included expenses from the acquired businesses, and $4.6 million of incremental amortization expense of acquired intangible assets.

Operating income of $59.8 million increased $11.2 million from the first quarter of fiscal 2024 to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher SG&A expenses.

Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

Performance Technologies net sales decreased $34.1 million, or 10 percent, from the first quarter of fiscal 2024 to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to lower sales volume, including $24.3 million of lower sales from three automotive businesses in Germany that we sold during the third quarter of fiscal 2024.  These decreases were partially offset by higher average selling prices.  Compared with the first quarter of the prior year, sales of liquid-cooled and air-cooled products decreased $30.7 million and $4.1 million, respectively.  Sales of advanced solutions products increased $3.4 million.

Performance Technologies cost of sales decreased $45.7 million, or 16 percent, from the first quarter of fiscal 2024 to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to lower sales volume, lower raw material costs, which decreased approximately $7.0 million, and improved operating efficiencies.  These favorable drivers were partially offset by higher labor and inflationary costs.  As a percentage of sales, cost of sales decreased 550 basis points to 79.4 percent, primarily due to higher average selling prices, lower material costs and improved operating efficiencies, partially offset by higher labor and inflationary costs.

As a result of the lower sales and lower cost of sales as a percentage of sales, gross profit increased $11.6 million and gross margin improved 550 basis points to 20.6 percent.

SG&A expenses increased $2.5 million, or 10 percent, compared with the first quarter of the prior year.  As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased by 160 basis points.  The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to higher compensation-related expenses, which increased approximately $3.0 million.

Restructuring expenses of $5.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 primarily consisted of severance-related expenses associated with the closure of a technical service center in Europe, and equipment transfer costs.

Operating income of $31.5 million increased $3.9 million from the first quarter of fiscal 2024 to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher restructuring and SG&A expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operating activities, our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024 of $72.9 million, and available borrowing capacity of $163.8 million under our revolving credit facility.  Given our extensive international operations, approximately $69.0 million of our cash and cash equivalents are held by our non-U.S. subsidiaries.  Amounts held by non-U.S. subsidiaries are available for general corporate use; however, these funds may be subject to foreign withholding taxes if repatriated.  We believe our sources of liquidity will provide sufficient cash flow to adequately cover our funding needs on both a short-term and long-term basis.

Net cash provided by operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $40.5 million, which represents a $1.2 million decrease compared with the same period in the prior year.  This decrease in operating cash flow was primarily due to unfavorable net changes in working capital, as compared with the same period in the prior year, partially offset by the favorable impact of higher earnings.  The unfavorable changes in working capital include a decrease in customer deposits associated with sales contracts with long inventory lead times and higher payments for incentive compensation, as compared with the same period in the prior year.

Capital expenditures
Capital expenditures of $26.8 million during the first three months of fiscal 2025 increased $11.7 million compared with the same period in the prior year.  The fiscal 2025 capital expenditures include investments supporting several of our strategic growth initiatives, including increasing production capacity for data center products.

Debt
Our credit agreements require us to maintain compliance with various covenants, including a leverage ratio covenant and an interest expense coverage ratio covenant, which are discussed further below.  Indebtedness under our credit agreements is secured by liens on substantially all domestic assets.  These agreements further require compliance with various covenants that may limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness; grant liens; make investments, loans, or guarantees; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; or make restricted payments including dividends.  Also, the credit agreements may require prepayments in the event of certain asset sales.

The leverage ratio covenant within our primary credit agreements requires us to limit our consolidated indebtedness, less a portion of our cash balance, both as defined by the credit agreements, to no more than three and one-quarter times consolidated net earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and certain other adjustments (“Adjusted EBITDA”).  We are also subject to an interest expense coverage ratio covenant, which requires us to maintain Adjusted EBITDA of at least three times consolidated interest expense.  As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with our debt covenants.  We expect to remain in compliance with our debt covenants during the remainder of fiscal 2025 and beyond.

U.S. pension plan termination
In June 2024, we approved the termination of our U.S. pension plan, subject to approvals from the Internal Revenue Service and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation.  We intend to offer certain participants the option to receive their pension benefits in the form of a lump-sum distribution prior to purchasing annuity contracts to transfer our remaining obligations under the plan.  In connection with the plan termination, we expect to make a cash contribution in the range of $15.0 million to $30.0 million to fully fund the plan, on a plan termination basis, and to record non-cash pension settlement charges totaling approximately $120.0 million to $130.0 million during fiscal 2026.  The timing and amount of the final cash contribution and settlement charges could materially differ from our estimates due to the nature and timing of participant settlements, prevailing market and economic conditions, the duration of the termination process, or other factors.

Share repurchase program
As of June 30, 2024, we had $32.1 million of share repurchase authorization remaining under the current repurchase program, which expires in November 2024.  Our decision whether and to what extent to repurchase additional shares will depend on a number of factors, including business conditions, other cash priorities, and stock price.

Market risks:


The impact of potential adverse developments or disruptions in the global economy and financial markets, including impacts related to inflation, energy costs, supply chain challenges, logistical disruptions, including those related to sea, land or air freight, tariffs, sanctions and other trade issues or cross-border trade restrictions (and any potential resulting trade war), and military conflicts, including the current conflicts in Ukraine and in the Middle East and heightened tension in the Red Sea;

Our ability to be at the forefront of technological advances in order to differentiate ourselves from our competitors and provide innovative products and services to our customers, and the impacts of any changes in or the adoption rate of technologies that we expect to drive sales growth, including those related to data center cooling and electric vehicles;


Our ability to mitigate increases in labor costs and labor shortages;


The impact of public health threats on the national and global economy, our business, suppliers (and the supply chain), customers, and employees; and


The impact of legislation, regulations, and government incentive programs, including those addressing climate change, on demand for our products and the markets we serve, including our ability to take advantage of opportunities to supply alternative new technologies to meet environmental and/or energy standards and objectives.

Operational risks:


The impact of problems, including logistic and transportation challenges, associated with suppliers meeting our quantity, quality, price and timing demands, and the overall health of our suppliers, including their ability and willingness to supply our volume demands if their production capacity becomes constrained;


The overall health of and pricing pressure from our customers in light of economic and market-specific factors and the potential impact on us from any deterioration in the stability or performance of any of our major customers;


Our ability to maintain current customer relationships and compete effectively for new business, including our ability to achieve profit margins acceptable to us by offsetting or otherwise addressing any cost increases associated with supply chain challenges and inflationary market conditions;


The impact of product or manufacturing difficulties or operating inefficiencies, including any product or program launches, product transfer challenges and warranty claims;


The impact of delays or modifications initiated by major customers with respect to product or program launches, product applications or requirements;


Our ability to consistently structure our operations in order to develop and maintain a competitive cost base with appropriately skilled and stable labor, while also positioning ourselves geographically, so that we can continue to support our customers with the technical expertise and market-leading products they demand and expect from Modine;


Our ability to effectively and efficiently manage our operations in response to sales volume changes, including maintaining adequate production capacity to meet demand in our growing businesses while also completing restructuring activities and realizing the anticipated benefits thereof;


Costs and other effects of the investigation and remediation of environmental contamination; including when related to the actions or inactions of others and/or facilities over which we have no control;


Our ability to recruit and maintain talent, including personnel in managerial, leadership, operational and administrative functions;


Our ability to protect our proprietary information and intellectual property from theft or attack by internal or external sources;


The impact of a substantial disruption, including any prolonged service outage, or material breach of our information technology systems, and any related delays, problems or costs;


The impact of the material weakness identified in our internal control over financial reporting related to IT system access in Europe on our financial reporting process;


Increasingly complex and restrictive laws and regulations and the costs associated with compliance therewith, including state and federal labor regulations, laws and regulations associated with being a U.S. public company, and other laws and regulations present in various jurisdictions in which we operate;


Increasing emphasis by global regulatory bodies, customers, investors, and employees on environmental, social and corporate governance matters may impose additional costs on us, adversely affect our reputation, or expose us to new risks;


Work stoppages or interference at our facilities or those of our major customers and/or suppliers;


The constant and increasing pressures associated with healthcare and associated insurance costs; and


Costs and other effects of litigation, claims, or other obligations, including those that may be asserted against us in connection with divested businesses.

Strategic risks:


Our ability to successfully realize anticipated benefits, including improved profit margins and cash flow, from strategic initiatives and our continued application of 80/20 principles across our businesses; and


Our ability to accelerate growth by identifying and executing on organic growth opportunities and acquisitions, and to efficiently and successfully integrate acquired businesses.

Financial risks:


Our ability to fund our global liquidity requirements efficiently for our current operations and meet our long-term commitments in the event of disruption in or tightening of the credit markets or extended recessionary conditions in the global economy;


The impact of increases in interest rates in relation to our variable-rate debt obligations;


The impact of changes in federal, state or local taxes that could have the effect of increasing our income tax expense;


Our ability to comply with the financial covenants in our credit agreements, including our leverage ratio (net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in our credit agreements) and our interest coverage ratio (Adjusted EBITDA divided by interest expense, as defined in our credit agreements);


The potential unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on our financial results; and


Our ability to effectively realize the benefits of deferred tax assets in various jurisdictions in which we operate.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company’s quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk are incorporated by reference from Part II, Item 7A. of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2024.  The Company’s market risks have not materially changed since the fiscal 2024 Form 10-K was filed.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management of the Company, with the participation of the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and under the oversight of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, at a reasonable assurance level, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  As described below, management previously identified a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  This material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable new and enhanced controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management can conclude, through testing, that the controls are designed and operating effectively.  As remediation of the material weakness is not yet complete, the President and Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures continue to be ineffective as of June 30, 2024.

Notwithstanding the material weakness, management performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are fairly presented in all material respects in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Previously-identified material weakness
As reported in Part II, Item 9A. “Controls and Procedures” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2024, management identified a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting related to information technology (“IT”) general controls in Europe for systems supporting the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes.  Specifically, the Company did not appropriately restrict access to certain systems.  As a result, automated process-level controls and manual controls that are dependent upon the accuracy and completeness of information derived from those IT systems were also ineffective since they could have been adversely impacted.  The material weakness resulted from an insufficient number of trained resources with the IT expertise necessary to appropriately assess and be accountable for IT-related risks or effectively design, implement, and operate controls to monitor and restrict access to systems that support the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes.

Management’s remediation activities
Management is currently in the process or substantially complete with the following steps, which it believes will fully address the underlying causes of the material weakness:


Engaging resources, including current team members, new hires, and external consultants with appropriate expertise to be held accountable for effectively assessing IT-related risks and designing, implementing and operating controls needed to mitigate those risks; and


Designing and implementing controls to effectively restrict and monitor access to systems that support the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes.

Management believes that these actions and control improvements, when fully implemented and tested, will strengthen the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and remediate the material weakness identified.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

The Company acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 and is currently in the process of evaluating and integrating the operations, processes and internal controls of the acquired company.  See Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report for additional information regarding the acquisition.

Except for the remediation steps described above and the integration activities underway for the Scott Springfield Manufacturing acquisition, there have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
