KEY TRONIC CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Key Tronic Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet information was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018.

The Company’s reporting period is a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to June 30. The three and nine month periods ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, were 13 and 39 week periods, respectively. Fiscal year 2019 will end on June 29,2019, which is a 52 week year. Fiscal year 2018 which ended on June 30, 2018, was also a 52 week year.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the combination of other potentially dilutive weighted average common shares and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. The computation assumes the proceeds from the exercise of equity awards were used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the period. The computation of diluted EPS does not assume conversion, exercise, or contingent issuance of common stock equivalent shares that would have an anti-dilutive effect on EPS.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company has entered into foreign currency forward contracts, foreign currency swaps and an interest rate swap which are accounted for as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) and is reclassified into earnings in the same period in which the underlying hedged transaction affects earnings. The derivative’s effectiveness represents the change in fair value of the hedge that offsets the change in fair value of the hedged item.

The Company uses derivatives to manage the variability of foreign currency fluctuations of expenses in our Mexico facilities and interest rate risk associated with certain borrowings under the Company’s term loan arrangement. The foreign currency forward contracts, foreign currency swaps and interest rate swap have terms that are matched to the underlying transactions being hedged. As a result, these transactions fully offset the hedged risk and no ineffectiveness has been recorded.

The Company’s foreign currency forward contracts, foreign currency swaps and interest rate swap potentially expose the Company to credit risk to the extent the counterparty may be unable to meet the terms of the agreement. The Company minimizes such risk by utilizing a counterparty with a strong credit rating. The Company’s counterparty to the foreign currency forward contracts, foreign currency swaps and interest rate swap is a major banking institution. This institution does not require collateral for the contracts, and the Company believes that the risk of the counterparty failing to meet their contractual obligations is remote. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Income Taxes

We compute our interim income tax provision through the use of an estimated annual effective tax rate (ETR) applied to year-to-date operating results and specific events that are discretely recognized as they occur. In determining the estimated annual ETR, we analyze various factors, including projections of our annual earnings, taxing jurisdictions in which the earnings will be generated, the impact of state and local income taxes, our ability to use tax credits and available tax planning alternatives. Discrete items, including the effect of changes in tax laws, tax rates, and certain circumstances with respect to valuation allowances or other unusual or non-recurring tax adjustments, are reflected in the period in which they occur as an addition to, or reduction from, the income tax provision, rather than included in the estimated annual ETR.

8

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences and benefits attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities for a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

We utilize a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments based on new assessments and changes in estimates and which may not accurately forecast actual outcomes. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to the underpayment of income taxes as a component of income tax expense. The tax years 1998 through the present remain open to examination by the major U.S. taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject. Refer to Note 6 for further discussions.

Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company records intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets in the financial statements at acquisition. In accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized but are required to be reviewed for impairment at least annually or when events or circumstances indicate that carrying value may exceed fair value. The Company’s annual goodwill impairment analysis is performed as of the first day of the fourth quarter. The Company’s acquired intangible assets are subject to amortization over their estimated useful lives and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. Refer to footnote 12 for impairment analysis for goodwill and other intangibles that occurred during the quarter, as a result of certain triggering events being present.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (also referred to as Accounting Standard Codification 606 (“ASC 606”). The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under current guidance. This may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. Additionally, disclosures required for revenue recognition will include qualitative and quantitative information about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. Such disclosures are more extensive than what is required under existing GAAP. The Company adopted the standard on July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach by applying the guidance to all open contracts at the adoption date and has implemented revised accounting policies, new operational and financial reporting processes, enhanced systems capabilities and relevant internal controls. As part of adopting ASC 606, revenue for certain customer contracts where the Company is manufacturing products for which there is no alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment including a reasonable profit for work-in-progress inventory will be recognized over time instead of upon shipment of products. In addition to the following disclosures, footnote 13 provides further disclosures required by the new standard.

The cumulative effect of change made to our July 1, 2018 consolidated balance sheet for the adoption of ASC 606 was as follows:

Consolidated Balance Sheet
	Impact of Adopting ASC 606
(Unaudited, in thousands)	Balance at June 30, 2018	Adjustments		Balance at July 1, 2018
ASSETS
Contract assets	—	11,906		11,906

Deferred income tax asset	7,882	(167	)	7,715
LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Retained earnings	72,806	529		73,335

The following tables summarize the impacts of ASC 606 adoption on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income:

	As Reported			606 Adjustment		Balance without 606 Adoption			As Reported			606 Adjustment		Balance without 606 Adoption
Net sales	$	107,954		$	1,019	$	106,935		$	358,463		$	8,231	$	350,232
Cost of sales	101,147			419		100,728			332,243			7,133		325,110
Gross profit	6,807			600		6,207			26,220			1,098		25,122
Net income	$	(11,981	)	$	600	$	(12,581	)	$	(8,799	)	$	1,098	$	(9,897	)

For the three months ended March 30, 2019 the reported revenue and gross profit was approximately $108.0 million, and $6.8 million; respectively. This reflects the adoption of ASC 606 as revenue and gross profit would have been $1.0 million and $0.6 million less without ASC 606 adoption. This is primarily due to the change from 'point-in-time' to 'over-time' recognition as the standard requires. There was not a material tax impact for the three months ended March 30, 2019 from adopting ASC 606.

For the nine months ended March 30, 2019 the reported revenue and gross profit was approximately $358.5 million, and $26.2 million; respectively. This reflects the adoption of ASC 606 as revenue and gross profit would have been $8.2 million and $1.1 million less without ASC 606 adoption. There was not a material tax impact for the nine months ended March 30, 2019 from adopting ASC 606.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases which supersedes ASC 840 Leases and creates a new topic, ASC 842 Leases. This update requires lessees to recognize a lease asset and a lease liability for all leases, including operating leases, with a term greater than 12 months on its balance sheet. The update also expands the required quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases. This update will be applied using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Upon initial evaluation, the Company believes the new guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated balance sheets when adopted. The Company intends to adopt the new lease guidance when it becomes effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.

In July 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. The update is intended to clarify certain aspects of the new leases standard, Topic 842. The amendments affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in update 2016-02 discussed above. The amendments address residual value guarantees, the rate implicit in the lease, certain lessee and lessor reassessments, variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, investment tax credits, lease term and purchase option, transition guidance and certain adjustments, impairment of the net investment in the lease, residual assets that are not guaranteed, as well as other areas of improvement and clarification. The amendments have the same effective date and transition requirements as the new leases standard. As noted above, the Company believes the new guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated balance sheets when adopted. The Company intends to adopt the new lease guidance when it becomes effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.

In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The update is intended to provide guidance on how certain cash receipts and payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. Under the guidance, cash receipts from the deferred purchase price of the Company's factored receivables will be classified as cash flows from investing activities instead of the Company's former presentation as cash flows from operations. The Company adopted the guidance during the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 and retrospectively adjusted cash flows from operating and investing activities for the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018; respectively. Upon adoption of the standard, the Company recorded $4.8 million of cash receipts on the deferred purchase price from receivables factored by the Company during the nine months ended March 30, 2019, and reclassified $5.9 million of cash receipts on the deferred purchase price from receivables factored by the Company for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, from cash flows from operating activities to cash flows from investing activities.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. Under the new standard, goodwill impairment would be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying value of goodwill. This ASU eliminates existing guidance that requires an entity to determine goodwill impairment by calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by hypothetically assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. This update is effective prospectively to impairment tests beginning January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company chose to early adopt the new guidance during the quarter, applicable to the current quarter impairment tests.

In May 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation. This update provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The Company adopted the new guidance during the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 and the result had an immaterial impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging, which amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements in ASC 815. The Board’s objectives in issuing this update are to (1) improve the transparency and understandability of information about an entity’s risk management activities by better aligning the entity’s financial reporting for hedging relationships with those risk management activities and (2) simplify the application of hedge accounting. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this update on its consolidated financial statements. The Company expects the new guidance will have an immaterial impact on its consolidated financial statements, and it intends to adopt the guidance when it becomes effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.

In January 2018, the FASB released guidance on the accounting for tax on the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions of the Tax Act.  The GILTI provisions impose a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. The Company elects to treat any potential GILTI inclusions as a period cost.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvement to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting" with the objective of simplifying several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions in current GAAP. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 with early adoption permitted. The Company expects the new guidance will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, and it intends to adopt the guidance when it becomes effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.

11

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”, which amends ASC 820 to add, remove, and modify fair value measurement disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 with early adoption permitted. The Company expects the new guidance will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, and it intends to adopt the guidance when it becomes effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.

3. Inventories

The components of inventories consist of the following (in thousands):

	March 30, 2019		June 30, 2018
Finished goods	$	10,129	$	14,927
Work-in-process	12,017		22,254
Raw materials and supplies	73,250		73,134
	$	95,396	$	110,315

As a result of the adoption of ASC 606, amounts that would have been reported as inventory under prior guidance are now included in contract assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as disclosed in footnote 2. As a result of this accounting change, finished goods as of March 30, 2019 are $10.8 million less than they would have been had we not adopted ASC 606 and work-in-process inventory as of March 30, 2019 is $7.6 million less than they would have been had we not adopted ASC 606. The comparative information as of June 30, 2018, has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect at that time.

4. Long-Term Debt

On September 30, 2018, the Company entered into a Fourth amendment to the amended and restated credit agreement to extend the maturity date to August 31, 2021 on the term loan in the amount of $35.0 million that was used to acquire all of the outstanding shares of CDR Manufacturing, Inc. (dba Ayrshire Electronics). The term loan requires quarterly payments of $1.25 million through June 15, 2021, with a final payment of the remaining outstanding balance on August 31, 2021. The Company had an outstanding balance of $12.5 million and $16.3 million under the term loan as of March 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively.

On August 6, 2015, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the amended and restated credit agreement extending the limit on our line of credit facility to $45.0 million as evidenced by the Second Replacement Revolving Note. The agreement specifies that the proceeds of the revolving line of credit be used primarily for working capital and general corporate purposes. The line of credit is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. On September 30, 2018, the Company entered into a Fourth amendment to the amended and restated credit agreement to extend the maturity date to November 1, 2023, at which time all outstanding balances are payable. As of March 30, 2019, the Company had an outstanding balance under the credit facility of $18.1 million, $0.4 million in outstanding letters of credit and $26.5 million available for future borrowings. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had an outstanding balance under the credit facility of $16.2 million, $0.4 million in outstanding letters of credit and $28.4 million available for future borrowings.

On December 28, 2016, the Company entered into an equipment term loan agreement in the amount of $3.9 million in order to further invest in production equipment. The equipment term loan is collateralized by production equipment. Under this loan agreement, equal quarterly payments of approximately $0.2 million commenced on March 31, 2017 and will continue through the maturity of the equipment term loan on June 30, 2021. Amortization of the debt issuance costs is reported as interest expense on the consolidated income statement. As of March 30, 2019, the Company had an outstanding balance of $2.0 million. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had an outstanding balance of $2.6 million. The Company has available an additional $2.1 million which can be borrowed in the future under this agreement.

Borrowings under the revolving line of credit, term loan and equipment term loan bear interest at either a “Base Rate” or a “Fixed Rate,” as elected by the Company. The base rate is the higher of the Wells Fargo Bank prime rate, daily one month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.5%, or the Federal Funds rate plus 1.5%. The fixed rate is LIBOR plus 1.75%, LIBOR plus 2.00%, or LIBOR plus 2.25% depending on the level of the Company’s trailing four quarters Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA). The interest rates on outstanding debt as of March 30, 2019 range from 4.49% - 5.50% compared to 4.09% - 5.00% as of June 30, 2018.

12

Debt maturities as of March 30, 2019 for the next five years and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

Fiscal Years Ending	Amount
2019 (1)	$	1,468
2020	5,871
2021	5,871
2022	1,250
2023	—
Thereafter	18,125
Total debt	$	32,585
Unamortized debt issuance costs	(67		)
Long-term debt, net of debt issuance costs	$	32,518

(1)Represents scheduled payments for the remaining three-month period ending June 29, 2019.

The Company must comply with certain financial covenants, including a cash flow leverage ratio, an asset coverage ratio, and a fixed charge coverage ratio. The credit agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum profit threshold, limits the maximum capital lease expenditures and restricts the Company from declaring or paying dividends in cash or stock without prior bank approval. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants as of March 30, 2019 as a result of the Fourth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank. Per the amendment the impairment of goodwill and intangibles and severance expense are deemed extraordinary expenses, thus excluded from the Company’s covenant calculation.

5. Trade Accounts Receivable Purchase Programs

Sale Programs

The Company utilizes an Account Purchase Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“WFB”) which allows the Company to sell and assign to WFB and WFB may purchase from the Company the accounts receivable of certain Company customers in a maximum aggregate amount outstanding of $25.0 million. This agreement may be cancelled at any time by either party. The Company also has an Account Purchase Agreement with Orbian Financial Services (“Orbian”). This agreement allows the Company to sell accounts receivable of certain customers to Orbian and the agreement may be cancelled at any time by either party.

Total accounts receivables sold during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018 was approximately $62.0 million and $81.2 million, respectively. Accounts receivables sold and not yet collected were $2.1 million and $2.0 million as of March 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The receivables that were sold were removed from the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the cash received is reflected as cash provided by operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Cash receipts related to the deferred purchase price from receivables factored by the Company is reflected as cash provided by investing activities.

6. Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”) was signed into law. The Tax Act reduced Federal corporate tax rates effective January 1, 2018 and changed certain other provisions, many of which were not effective until fiscal year 2019.

As a result of the change of the U.S. tax system under the Tax Act from a global to a territorial model, a deemed one-time repatriation of all accumulated earnings and profits (AE&P) in Mexico and China occurred on December 31, 2017. For purposes of calculating the toll tax associated with this deemed repatriation, AE&P pools are stratified into two asset categories, subjected to certain allowable deductions and then the net amounts are subjected to the toll tax (15.5% for cash/cash equivalents and 8% for illiquid assets).

Compliance with the 2017 Tax Act will require significant complex computations not previously required by U.S. tax law. It is unclear how certain provisions of the 2017 Tax Act will be applied absent further legislative, regulatory, or accounting clarification and guidance. Also, on December 22, 2017, the staff of the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB No. 118”). SAB No. 118 provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act and allows registrants to record provisional amounts for a period of up to one year from the date of enactment of the 2017 Tax Act. In compliance with SAB 118, we completed the accounting estimates for the 2017 Tax Act during the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 after finalizing formal AE&P and tax pool studies for both Mexico and China, resulting in an increase of approximately $0.2 million to the net toll tax liability. However, as additional legislative, regulatory, and accounting guidance and interpretations become available, further adjustments to the net toll tax liability may be necessary.

13

In future years, because of the toll tax on AE&P described above, repatriations of cash will generally be tax-free in the U.S. However, withholding taxes in China and Mexico may still apply to any such future repatriations. Management has not changed its indefinite investment assertions with regard to the portion of AE&P in China that may be repatriated in the future. Accordingly, management estimates that future repatriations of cash from China may result in approximately $0.8 million of withholding tax. There would be no offsetting foreign tax credits in the U.S. and as such, this potential liability is a direct cost associated with actual repatriations.

Under Mexican tax law, any previously taxed earnings from before 2014 (“CUFIN”) are not subject to withholding when monies are repatriated to another country. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, the U.S. parent company received a distribution of the remaining CUFIN amount. As such, future distributions from Mexico will be subject to withholding tax. The currently remaining earnings in Mexico are permanently reinvested; therefore, no withholding tax liability has been recognized as of March 30, 2019. If, in the future, repatriations from Mexico are expected, the Company will be required to recognize a withholding tax as a deferred tax liability at that time. Similar to China, this withholding would not be creditable and would be a direct cost associated with the actual repatriation.

The Company expects to repatriate a portion of its foreign earnings based on increased net sales growth driving additional capital requirements domestically, cash requirements for potential acquisitions and to implement certain tax strategies. The Company currently expects to repatriate approximately $7.8 million of foreign earnings in the future. All other unremitted foreign earnings are expected to remain permanently reinvested for planned fixed assets purchases and improvements in foreign locations.

The Company has available approximately $8.7 million of gross federal research and development tax credits as of March 30, 2019. ASC 740 requires the Company to recognize in its financial statements uncertainties in tax positions taken that may not be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. Accordingly, as of March 30, 2019, the Company has recorded $4.1 million of unrecognized tax benefits associated with these federal tax credits, resulting in a net deferred tax benefit of approximately $4.6 million.

7. Earnings Per Share

The following tables present a reconciliation of the denominator in the basic and diluted EPS calculation and the number of antidilutive common share awards that were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation. These antidilutive securities occur when equity awards outstanding have an option price greater than the average market price for the period.

8. Share-based Compensation

The Company’s incentive plan provides for equity and liability awards to employees and non-employee directors in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock awards, stock units, performance shares, performance units, and other stock-based or cash-based awards. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite employee service period, which is generally the vesting period, and is recorded as employee compensation expense in cost of goods sold, research, development and engineering, and selling, general and administrative expenses. Share-based compensation is recognized only for those awards that are expected to vest, with forfeitures estimated at the date of grant based on historical experience and future expectations.

In addition to service conditions, SARs contain a performance condition. The additional performance condition is based upon the achievement of Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) goals relative to a peer group. All awards with performance conditions are evaluated quarterly to determine the likelihood that performance metrics will be achieved during the performance period. These awards are charged to compensation expense over the requisite service period based on the number of shares expected to vest. The SARs cliff vest after a three-year period from date of grant and expire five years from date of grant.

The grant date fair value for the awards granted below were estimated using the Black Scholes option valuation method:

	July 27, 2018		July 28, 2017
SARs Granted	161,250		272,500
Strike Price	$	8.17	$	7.26
Fair Value	$	2.27	$	1.89

Total share-based compensation expense recognized during the three months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018 was approximately $80,000 and $56,000, respectively. Total share-based compensation expense recognized during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018 was approximately $354,000 and $307,000, respectively.

As of March 30, 2019, total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements was approximately $0.5 million. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.72 years. No SARs were exercised during the three or nine months ended March 30, 2019 or March 31, 2018.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and Other Matters

The Company is party to certain lawsuits or claims in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flow of the Company.

Warranties

The Company provides warranties on certain product sales. Allowances for estimated warranty costs are recorded during the period of sale. The determination of such allowances requires the Company to make estimates of product return rates and expected costs to repair or to replace the products under warranty. If actual return rates and/or repair and replacement costs differ significantly from management’s estimates, adjustments to recognize additional cost of sales may be required in future periods. The Company’s warranty reserve was approximately $17,000 as of March 30, 2019 and $20,000 as of June 30, 2018, respectively.

10. Derivative Financial Instruments

As of March 30, 2019, the Company had outstanding foreign currency forward contracts with a total notional amount of $33.6 million. The maturity dates for these contracts extend through June 2020. For the three months ended March 30, 2019, the Company did not enter into any foreign currency forward contracts and settled $7.0 million of such contracts. During the same period of the previous year, the Company did not enter into any foreign currency forward contracts and settled $5.7 million of such contracts.

For the nine months ended March 30, 2019, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts of $6.3 million and settled $19.0 million of such contracts. During the same period of the previous year, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts of $7.2 million and settled $22.3 million of such contracts.

15

As of March 30, 2019, the aggregate notional amount of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency contracts along with their unrealized gains are expected to mature as summarized below (in thousands):

Quarter Ending	Notional Contracts in MXN		Notional Contracts in USD		Estimated Fair Value
June 29, 2019	$	142,947	$	6,828	$	483
September 28, 2019	$	148,468	$	6,740	$	741
December 28, 2019	$	152,613	$	7,187	$	399
March 28, 2020	$	146,613	$	6,553	$	631
June 27, 2020	$	138,213	$	6,257	$	430

On October 1, 2014, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract with an effective date of September 1, 2015 and a termination date of September 3, 2019, related to the borrowings outstanding under the term loan. This interest rate swap pays the Company variable interest at the one month LIBOR rate, and the Company pays the counter party a fixed interest rate. The fixed interest rate for the contract is 1.97% that replaces the one month LIBOR rate component of our contractual interest to be paid to WFB as part of our term loan. Based on the terms of the interest rate swap contract and the underlying borrowings outstanding under the term loan, the interest rate contract was determined to be effective, and thus qualifies as a cash flow hedge.

The following table summarizes the fair value of derivative instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018 (in thousands):

⁽¹⁾ The effective portion recorded in AOCI for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2018 is net of the adoption of ASU 2018-02 which required a reclassification from AOCI to retained earnings for the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

As of March 30, 2019, the net amount of unrealized gain expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months is approximately $1.8 million. As of March 30, 2019, the Company does not have any foreign exchange contracts with credit-risk-related contingent features.

11. Fair Value Measurements

The Company has adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for assets and liabilities being measured and reported at fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. There are three levels of fair value hierarchy inputs used to value assets and liabilities which include: Level 1 – inputs are quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – inputs other than quoted market prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 – inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The following table summarizes the fair value of assets (liabilities) of the Company’s derivatives that are required to be measured on a recurring basis as of March 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018 (in thousands):

	March 30, 2019
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total Fair Value
Financial Assets:
Interest rate swaps	$	—	$	8	$	—	$	8
Foreign currency forward contracts	$	—	$	2,684	$	—	$	2,684

	June 30, 2018
	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total Fair Value
Financial Assets:
Interest rate swaps	$	—	$	24		$	—	$	24
Foreign currency forward contracts & swaps	$	—	$	500		$	—	$	500
Financial Liabilities:
Foreign currency forward contracts & swaps	$	—	$	(1,676	)	$	—	$	(1,676	)

17

The Company currently has forward contracts to hedge known future cash outflows for expenses denominated in the Mexican peso and an interest rate swap to mitigate risk associated with certain borrowings under the Company’s debt arrangement. These contracts are measured on a recurring basis based on the foreign currency spot rates and forward rates quoted by banks or foreign currency dealers. These contracts are marked to market using level 2 input criteria every period with the unrealized gain or loss, net of tax, reported as a component of shareholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive loss, as they qualify for hedge accounting.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and current liabilities reflected on the balance sheets at March 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, reasonably approximate their fair value. The Company’s long-term debt, which is measured at amortized cost, primarily consists of a revolving line of credit, a term loan and an equipment term loan. These borrowings bear interest at either a “Base Rate” or a “Fixed Rate,” as elected by the Company. Each of these rates is a variable floating rate dependent upon current market conditions and the Company’s current credit risk as discussed in footnote 4.

As a result of the determinable market rates for our revolving line of credit, term loan and equipment term loan, they are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Further, the carrying value of each of these instruments reasonably approximates their fair value as of March 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018.

12. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company recorded goodwill in connection with the Ayrshire and Sabre acquisitions resulting primarily from the synergies that resulted from the Company’s acquisitions and the assembled workforce. The goodwill is not amortized for financial accounting purposes.

In accordance with accounting guidance on goodwill and other intangible assets, the Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level annually, and whenever circumstances occur indicating that goodwill might be impaired. Upon adoption of ASU 2017-04, the Company now recognizes an impairment charge (not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit) for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. During the quarter, a few large programs declined in revenue and two new programs were delayed.  This decrease in the Company’s total revenue combined with book value continuing to exceed market capitalization caused a “triggering event” in which to perform a quantitative impairment analysis as of March 30, 2019. To estimate the fair value of the Company’s equity, the Company used both a market approach and an income approach, based on a discounted cash flows analysis. As of March 30, 2019, market related factors increased expected required rates of return, which also increased the Company’s discount rate used to project future cash flows. Further, push outs of the Company’s forecasted future cash flows relating to delays in customer orders adversely impacted the Company’s discounted cash flows model. As a result, a lower estimate in the Company’s fair value using these two valuation methods indicated an impairment charge.

During the quarter, the Company also assessed other finite-lived intangible assets including the Company’s customer relationships and favorable lease agreements due to an indicator of possible impairment being present, as discussed above. As a result of the analysis performed, the Company determined that the carrying value of the customer relationships intangible asset was not recoverable and recorded an impairment for the entire carrying amount during the third quarter of fiscal year 2019. The Company’s analysis did not indicate that any of its other long-lived assets were impaired.

During the nine months ended March 30, 2019, a goodwill impairment of $10.0 million and other intangible assets impairment of $2.5 million was recognized. During the nine months ended March 31, 2018, no goodwill impairment was recognized. Goodwill was recorded at $10.0 million as of June 30, 2018.

13. Revenue

Revenue Recognition

The Company specializes in services ranging from product manufacturing to engineering and tooling services. The first step in its process for revenue recognition is to identify the contract with a customer. A contract is defined as an agreement between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations. A contract can be written, oral, or implied. The Company generally enters into manufacturing service agreements (“MSA”) with its customers that outlines the terms of the business relationship between the customer and the Company. This includes matters such as warranty, indemnification, transfer of title and risk of loss, liability for excess and obsolete inventory, pricing, payment terms, etc. The Company will also bid on a program-by-program basis for customers in which an executed MSA may not be in place. In these instances, as well as when we have an MSA in place, we receive customer purchase orders for specific quantities and timing of products. As a result, the Company considers its contract with a customer to be the combination of the MSA and the purchase order. The transaction price is fixed and set forth in each purchase order. In the Company's normal course of business, there are no variable pricing components, or material amounts refunded to customers in the form of refunds or rebates.

19

The Company assesses whether control of the product or services promised under the contract is transferred to the customer at a point in time (shipment) or over time (as we manufacture the product). The Company is first required to evaluate whether its contracts meet the criteria for 'over-time' or 'point-in-time' recognition. The Company has determined that for the majority of its contracts the Company is manufacturing products for which there is no alternative use due to the unique nature of the customer-specific product, IP and other contract restrictions. The Company has an enforceable right to payment including a reasonable profit for performance completed to date with respect to these contracts. As a result, revenue is recognized under these contracts 'over-time' based on the input cost-to-cost method as it better depicts the transfer of control. This input method is based on the ratio of costs incurred to date as compared to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. For all other contracts that do not meet these criteria, such as manufacturing contracts for which the terms do not provide an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, the Company recognizes revenue when it has transferred control of the related manufactured products which generally occurs upon shipment to the customer. Revenue from engineering services is recognized over time as the services are performed.

The Company’s typical payment terms are 30 to 45 days and its sales arrangements do not contain any significant financing component for its customers.

The Company generally provides a warranty for workmanship on its manufacturing contracts. Historically, the amount of returns for workmanship issues has been de minimis under the Company’s warranties.

The Company elected to not disclose information about remaining performance obligations as they are part of contracts that that have expected durations of one year or less.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2019, no revenues were recognized from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods.

Contract Balances

A contract asset is recognized when the Company has recognized revenue, but has not issued an invoice for payment. Contract assets are classified separately on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and transferred to receivables when the right to payment becomes unconditional. The following table summarizes the activity in the Company’s contract assets during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 (in thousands):

	Contract Assets

Executive Summary

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, the Company reported total revenue of $108.0 million, compared to $108.4 million in the same period of fiscal year 2018. For the first nine months of fiscal year 2019, total revenue was $358.5 million, up 9% from $329.3 million in the same period of fiscal year 2018.

For the first nine months of fiscal 2019, our new programs continued to ramp, driving growing revenue, improving margins and increased profitability. Despite the continued industry-wide shortages for key components, we have made the necessary adjustments for adequate lead-times across our supply chain and have brought inventory levels more in line with revenue levels.

During the quarter, we continued to win new business from EMS competitors, including new programs involving hygiene devices, express delivery services and industrial monitoring systems. We believe the tariffs on production in China have made our North American-based production more appealing to potential new customers. Moreover, our plans to add additional capacity in Vietnam will significantly reduce production costs, diversify our global manufacturing base and provide an additional hedge against uncertainty in a lingering or future trade war with China.

The concentration of our top three customers’ net sales increased to 39.1 percent of total sales in the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 from 30.6 percent in the same period of the prior fiscal year. The Company notes the concentration of our top three customers’ net sales without the adoption of ASC 606, increased to 30.9 percent from 30.6 percent in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

21

Net sales to our largest customers may vary significantly from quarter to quarter depending on the size and timing of customer program commencement, forecasts, delays, and design modifications. We remain dependent on continued net sales to our significant customers and most contracts with customers are not firm long-term purchase commitments. We seek to maintain flexibility in production capacity by employing skilled temporary and short-term labor and by utilizing short-term leases on equipment and manufacturing facilities. In addition, our capacity and core competencies for printed circuit board assemblies, precision molding, sheet metal fabrication, tool making, assembly, and engineering can be applied to a wide variety of products.

Gross profit as a percent of net sales was 6.3 percent for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 as compared to 7.5 percent for the same quarter of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was due to lower net sales, as well as severance expense recorded during the quarter.

Operating loss as a percentage of net sales was (11.6) percent for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 compared to 0.7 percent of operating income as a percentage of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by the decrease in net sales, increase in severance expense and the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets.

Net loss for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 was $12.0 million or $(1.11) per share, as compared to net income of $0.6 million or $0.06 per share for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018. The decrease in net income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 as compared to the same period in fiscal year 2018, was primarily due to the decrease in net sales, increase in severance expense and the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets.

Our pipeline of potential new business is also increasingly robust, involving programs with greater long-term revenue potential and higher quantity requirements. Our increased competitiveness in the EMS marketplace is being driven by the growing recognition of the advantages of Mexico-based production for North America consumption, opportunities presented by the acquisition of Ayrshire, as well as by the growing number of opportunities where we can capitalize on the continued expansion of our sheet metal fabrication capabilities in concert with our plastic molding, printed circuit, and product assembly capabilities. We believe that we are well positioned in the EMS industry to continue expansion of our customer base and achieve long-term growth.

For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, the Company expects to report revenue in the range of $112 million to $117 million. These expected results assume an effective tax rate of 20% in the quarter. Future results will depend on actual levels of customers’ orders and the timing of the startup of production of new product programs.

We maintain a strong balance sheet with a current ratio of 2.1 and a debt to equity ratio of 0.3 as of March 30, 2019. Total cash provided by operating activities as defined on our cash flow statement was $3.4 million for the nine months ended March 30, 2019. We maintain sufficient liquidity for our expected future operations and had $18.1 million in borrowings on our $45.0 million revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. of which $26.5 million remained available at March 30, 2019. We believe cash flows generated from operations, our borrowing capacity, and leasing opportunities should provide adequate capital for planned growth.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical results as well as future expectations. Actual results could vary from our estimates and assumptions.

The accounting policies and estimates listed below are those that we believe are the most critical to our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. They are also the accounting policies that typically require our most difficult, subjective and complex judgments and estimates, often for matters that are inherently uncertain.

• Inactive, Obsolete, and Surplus Inventory Reserve

• Revenue Recognition

• Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

• Accrued Warranty

• Income Taxes

• Share-Based Compensation

• Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

• Derivatives and Hedging Activity

• Long-Term Incentive Compensation Accrual

• Impairment of Goodwill

• Business Combinations

• Contingent Liabilities

Please refer to the discussion of critical accounting policies in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, for further details. There were no changes to our accounting policies other than the adoption of ASC 606 as follows:

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 30, 2019 with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018

The financial information and discussion below should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the components of our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) for the three months ended March 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018. It is provided to assist in assessing differences in our overall performance (in thousands):

Net Sales

Net sales of $108.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 decreased by 0.4 percent as compared to net sales of $108.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018.

The $0.4 million decrease in net sales from the prior year period was driven by reduced orders from two large, longstanding customers. One of these customers needed to lower its inventory in the third quarter, but expects a rebound in demand in the fourth quarter; the other large customer is managing inventory as it is transitioning its production from Key Tronic’s China facilities to Key Tronic’s Mexico facilities. In addition, there were unanticipated delays in the launch of production for two new customers in the third quarter.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended March 30, 2019 was 6.3 percent compared to 7.5 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018. This 1.2 percentage point decrease was due to an increase in material related costs and a slight increase in other certain overhead costs.

The level of gross margin is impacted by facility utilization, product mix, timing, severity and steepness of new program ramps, pricing within the electronics industry and material costs, which can fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter.

Included in gross profit are charges related to changes in the allowance for obsolete inventory. We recorded a provision of approximately $12,000 and $2,000 for obsolete inventory during the three months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively. We adjust the allowance for estimated obsolescence as necessary in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and estimated net realizable value based on assumptions as to future demand and market conditions. The reserves are established for inventory that we have determined customers are not contractually responsible for and for inventory that we believe customers will be unable to purchase.

24

Operating Expenses

Total research, development, and engineering (RD&E) expenses were $1.4 million during the three months ended March 30, 2019 and $1.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018, respectively. Total RD&E expenses as a percent of net sales were 1.3 percent during the three months ended March 30, 2019 and 1.4 percent during the three months ended March 31, 2018. This 0.1 percent decrease in RD&E is related to a decrease in bonus related expenses based on financial performance.

Total selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $5.5 million during the three months ended March 30, 2019 compared to $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Total SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 5.1 percent during the three months ended March 30, 2019 compared to 5.4 percent during the three months ended March 31, 2018. This 0.3 percent decrease in SG&A is related to a decrease in legal fees, bonus related expenses and amortization expense.

Interest

Interest expense remained flat at $0.7 million during the three months ended March 30, 2019 and the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 30, 2019 was 9.6 percent compared to (423.6) percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to the tax impact of the write-off of certain intangible assets. For further information on taxes see footnote 6 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.” Refer to footnote 12 for additional information relating to the write-off of certain intangible assets.

Our judgments regarding deferred tax assets and liabilities may change due to changes in market conditions, changes in estimates, changes in tax laws or other factors. If assumptions and estimates change in the future the deferred tax assets and liability will be adjusted accordingly and any increase or decrease will result in an additional deferred income tax expense or benefit in subsequent periods.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended March 30, 2019 with the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2018

The financial information and discussion below should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the components of our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) for the nine months ended March 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2018. It is provided to assist in assessing differences in our overall performance (in thousands):

25

Net Sales

Net sales of $358.5 million for the nine months ended March 30, 2019 increased by 8.9 percent as compared to net sales of $329.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018.

The $29.2 million increase in net sales from the prior year period was primarily driven by an increase in net sales from new program wins, an increase is revenue recognized related to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), as well as an increase in demand from current customers.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the nine months ended March 30, 2019 was 7.3 percent compared to 7.5 percent for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. This 0.2 percentage point decrease is primarily related to an increase in material related costs partially offset by a decrease in certain overhead costs. The level of gross margin is impacted by facility utilization, product mix, timing, severity and steepness of new program ramps, pricing within the electronics industry and material costs, which can fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter.

Included in gross profit are charges related to changes in the allowance for obsolete inventory. We recorded a provision of approximately $70,000 and $28,000 for obsolete inventory during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively. We adjust the allowance for estimated obsolescence as necessary in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and estimated market value based on assumptions as to future demand and market conditions. The reserves are established for inventory that we have determined customers are not contractually responsible for and for inventory that we believe customers will be unable to purchase.

Operating Expenses

Total research, development, and engineering (RD&E) expenses were $5.0 million and $4.6 million during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively. Total RD&E expenses as a percent of net sales were 1.4 percent during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and the nine months ended March 31, 2018, respectively.

Total selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $16.2 million during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 compare to $16.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. Total SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 4.5 percent during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 compared to 5.1 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2018. This 0.6 percentage point decrease in SG&A is related to a decrease in legal fees and commission expense.

Interest

Interest expense was $2.1 million during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 compared to $1.9 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in interest expense is primarily related to an increase in the average balance outstanding on our line of credit.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 30, 2019 was 7.1 percent compared to 50.7 percent for the same period in fiscal year 2018. The effective tax rate decreased from the prior year primarily due to the recognition of certain discrete adjustments associated with U.S. tax reform that were recorded in the prior year, offset by the tax impact of the write-off of certain intangible assets. For further information on taxes see footnote 6 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.” Refer to footnote 12 for additional information relating to the write-off of certain intangible assets.

Our judgments regarding deferred tax assets and liabilities may change due to changes in market conditions, changes in estimates, changes in tax laws or other factors. If assumptions and estimates change in the future the deferred tax assets and liability will be adjusted accordingly and any increase or decrease will result in an additional deferred income tax expense or benefit in subsequent periods.

BACKLOG

On March 30, 2019, we had an order backlog of approximately $151.5 million. This compares with a backlog of approximately $129.2 million on March 31, 2018. The increase in backlog at March 30, 2019, when compared to March 31, 2018, reflects an increase in demand from current and new customers. Order backlog consists of purchase orders received for products expected to be shipped within the next 12 months, although shipment dates are subject to change due to design modifications or changes in other customer requirements. Order backlog should not be considered an accurate measure of future net sales.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Operating Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended March 30, 2019 was $3.4 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $4.0 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities is a result of the net loss, the impairment of the goodwill and intangible assets and the adoption of ASU 2016-15 as discussed in footnote 2. Upon adoption of the standard, the Company recorded $4.8 million of cash receipts on the deferred purchase price from receivables factored by the Company during nine months ended March 30, 2019, in cash flows from investing activities that under the previous guidance would have been classified as cash flows from operating activities. Further, the Company reclassified $5.9 million of similar cash receipts related to the nine months ended March 31, 2018, from cash flows from operating activities to cash flows from investing activities.

The $3.4 million of net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended March 30, 2019 is primarily related to $8.8 million in net loss for the period adjusted for $12.4 million impairment of goodwill and intangibles, $5.5 million of depreciation and amortization, $6.7 million of cash received from arbitration settlement, $5.5 million decrease in accounts receivable, a $3.6 million decrease in inventory, partially offset by a $8.2 million increase in contract assets, a $7.4 million decrease in accounts payable, a $3.6 million increase in other assets, and a $1.8 million decrease in accrued compensation.

This compares to $4.0 million of net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2018 is primarily related to $0.9 million in net income for the period adjusted for $5.8 million of depreciation and amortization, a $2.2 million decrease in accounts receivable, a $2.6 million increase in other liabilities, and a $16.1 million increase in accounts payable partially offset by a $13.4 million increase in inventory, a $3.4 million decrease in accrued compensation and a $5.8 million increase in other assets.

Accounts receivable fluctuates based on the timing of shipments, terms offered and collections that occurred during the quarter. While overall net sales are not typically seasonal in nature, we ship the majority of our product during the latter half of the quarter. In addition, accounts receivable will fluctuate based upon the amount of accounts receivable sold under our trade accounts receivable purchase programs. During the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, we factored accounts receivable of $62.0 million and $81.2 million, respectively, which were removed from our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We purchase inventory based on customer forecasts and orders, and when those forecasts and orders change, the amount of inventory may also fluctuate. Accounts payable fluctuates with changes in inventory levels, volume of inventory purchases and negotiated supplier terms.

Investing Cash Flow

Cash used in investing activities was $1.1 million during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 as compared to cash provided by investing activities of $3.7 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2018. Our primary investing activity during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, was purchasing equipment to support increased production levels for new programs, which was offset by the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-15 resulting in the recording and reclassification of $4.8 million and $5.9 million of cash receipts on the deferred purchase price from receivables factored by the Company from cash flows from operating activities to cash flows from investing activities for the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively.

Operating and capital leases are often utilized when potential technical obsolescence and funding requirement advantages outweigh the benefits of equipment ownership. Capital expenditures and periodic lease payments are expected to be financed with internally generated funds as well as our revolving line of credit facility and equipment term loan. During the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, we did not enter into any sales and leaseback transactions.

27

Financing Cash Flow

Cash provided by financing activities was $2.5 million during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 as compared to cash used in financing activities of $7.8 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year. Our primary financing activities during the nine months ended March 30, 2019 and nine months ended March 31, 2018, were repayments on our term loans of $4.4 million and borrowings and repayments under our revolving line of credit facility. Our credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank N.A. provides a revolving line of credit facility of up to $45.0 million, subject to availability.

As of March 30, 2019, approximately $26.5 million was available under the revolving line of credit facility. As of March 31, 2018, approximately $29.6 million was available under the revolving line of credit facility.

Our cash requirements are affected by the level of current operations and new EMS programs. We believe that projected cash from operations, funds available under the revolving credit facility and leasing capabilities will be sufficient to meet our working and fixed capital requirements for the foreseeable future. As of March 30, 2019, we had approximately $160,000 of cash held by foreign subsidiaries. If cash is to be repatriated in the future from these foreign subsidiaries, the Company would be subject to certain withholding taxes in the foreign jurisdictions. The total amount of tax payments required for the amount of foreign subsidiary cash on hand as of March 30, 2019 would approximate $16,000. We have accrued withholding taxes for expected future repatriation of foreign earnings as discussed in footnote 6 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

We have included a summary of our Contractual Obligations in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. There have been no material changes in contractual obligations outside the ordinary course of business since June 30, 2018.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

The following risks and uncertainties could affect our actual results and could cause results to differ materially from past results or those contemplated by our forward-looking statements. When used herein, the words “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates” and other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

We may experience fluctuations in quarterly results of operations.

Our quarterly operating results have varied in the past and may vary in the future due to a variety of factors, including adverse changes in the U.S. and global macroeconomic environment, volatility in overall demand for our customers’ products, success of customers’ programs, timing of new programs, new product introductions or technological advances by us, our customers and our competitors, and changes in pricing policies by us, our customers, our suppliers, and our competitors. Our customer base is diverse in the markets they serve, however, decreases in demand, particularly from customers in certain industries could affect future quarterly results. Additionally, our customers could be adversely impacted by illiquidity in the credit markets which could directly impact our operating results.

Component procurement, production schedules, personnel and other resource requirements are based on estimates of customer requirements. Occasionally, our customers may request accelerated production that can stress resources and reduce operating margins. Conversely, our customers may abruptly lower or cancel production which may lead to a sudden, unexpected increase in inventory or accounts receivable for which we may not be reimbursed even when under contract with customers. In addition, because many of our operating expenses are relatively fixed, a reduction in customer demand can harm our gross profit and operating results. The products which we manufacture for our customers have relatively short product lifecycles. Therefore, our business, operating results and financial condition are dependent in a significant way on our ability to obtain orders from new customers and new product programs from existing customers.

Operating results can also fluctuate if changes are made to significant estimates and assumptions. Significant estimates and assumptions include the allowance for doubtful receivables, provision for obsolete and non-saleable inventory, stock-based compensation, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, impairment of long-lived assets, long-term incentive compensation accrual, the provision for warranty costs, and the impact of hedging activities.

We are exposed to general economic conditions, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Adverse economic conditions and uncertainty in the global economy such as unstable global financial and credit markets, inflation, and recession can negatively impact our business. Unfavorable economic conditions could affect the demand for our customers’ products by triggering a reduction in orders as well as a decline in forecasts which could adversely affect our sales in future periods. Additionally, the financial strength of our customers and suppliers and their ability to obtain and rely on credit financing may affect their ability to fulfill their obligations to us and have an adverse effect on our financial results.

The majority of our sales come from a small number of customers and a decline in sales to any of these customers could adversely affect our business.

At present, our customer base is concentrated and could become more or less concentrated. There can be no assurance that our principal customers will continue to purchase products from us at current levels. Moreover, we typically do not enter into long-term volume purchase contracts with our customers, and our customers have certain rights to extend or delay the shipment of their orders. We, however, typically require that our customers contractually agree to buy back inventory purchased within specified lead times to build their products if not used.

The loss of one or more of our major customers, or the reduction, delay or cancellation of orders from such customers, due to economic conditions or other forces, could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. The contraction in demand from certain industries could impact our customer orders and have a negative impact on our operations over the foreseeable future. Additionally, if one or more of our customers were to become insolvent or otherwise unable to pay for the manufacturing services provided by us, our operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected.

29

We depend on a limited number of suppliers for certain components that are critical to our manufacturing processes. A shortage of these components or an increase in their price could interrupt our operations and result in a significant change in our results of operations.

We are dependent on many suppliers, including sole source suppliers, to provide key components and raw materials used in manufacturing customers’ products. We have seen supply shortages in certain electronic components. In addition, our suppliers' facilities may also experience earthquakes, tsunamis and other natural disasters which may cause a shortage of components. This can result in longer lead times and the inability to meet our customers request for flexible production and extended shipment dates. If demand for components outpaces supply, capacity delays could affect future operations. Delays in deliveries from suppliers or the inability to obtain sufficient quantities of components and raw materials could cause delays or reductions in shipment of products to our customers which could adversely affect our operating results and damage customer relationships.

We operate in a highly competitive industry; if we are not able to compete effectively in the EMS industry, our business could be adversely affected.

Competitors may offer customers lower prices on certain high volume programs. This could result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of market share, all of which would materially and adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. If we were unable to provide comparable or better manufacturing services at a lower cost than our competitors, it could cause sales to decline. In addition, competitors can copy our non-proprietary designs and processes after we have invested in development of products for customers, thereby enabling such competitors to offer lower prices on such products due to savings in development costs.

Cash and cash equivalents are exposed to concentrations of credit risk.

We place our cash with high credit quality institutions. At times, such balances may be in excess of the federal depository insurance limit or may be on deposit at institutions which are not covered by insurance. If such institutions were to become insolvent during which time it held our cash and cash equivalents in excess of the insurance limit, it could be necessary to obtain other credit financing to operate our facilities.

Our ability to secure and maintain sufficient credit arrangements is key to our continued operations.

There is no assurance that we will be able to retain or renew our credit agreements in the future. In the event the business grows rapidly or there is uncertainty in the macroeconomic climate, additional financing resources could be necessary in the current or future fiscal years. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain equity or debt financing at acceptable terms, or at all in the future. In addition, we have restrictive covenants with our financial institution which could impact how we manage our business. If we cannot meet our financial covenants, our borrowings could become immediately payable which could have a material adverse impact on our financial statements. For a summary of our banking arrangements, see Note 4 Long-Term Debt of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”

Our operations may be subject to certain risks.

We manufacture product in facilities located in Mexico, China and the United States. These operations may be subject to a number of risks, including:

• difficulties in staffing, turnover and managing onshore and offshore operations;

• political and economic instability (including acts of terrorism, pandemics, civil unrest, forms of violence and outbreaks of war), which could impact our ability to ship, manufacture, and/or receive product;

• unexpected changes in regulatory requirements and laws;

• longer customer payment cycles and difficulty collecting accounts receivable;

• export duties, import controls and trade barriers (including quotas);

• governmental restrictions on the transfer of funds;

• burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws and labor practices;

• our locations may be impacted by hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, water shortages, tsunamis, floods, typhoons, fires, extreme weather conditions and other natural or man-made disasters.

Our operations in certain foreign locations receive favorable income tax treatment in the form of tax credits or other incentives. In the event that such tax incentives are not extended, are repealed, or we no longer qualify for such programs, our taxes may increase, which would reduce our net income.

30

Additionally, certain foreign jurisdictions restrict the amount of cash that can be transferred to the U.S or impose taxes and penalties on such transfers of cash. To the extent we have excess cash in foreign locations that could be used in, or is needed by, our operations in the United States, we may incur significant penalties and/or taxes to repatriate these funds.

Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could increase our operating costs.

We have manufacturing operations located in Mexico and China. A significant portion of our operations are denominated in the Mexican peso and the Chinese currency, the renminbi ("RMB"). Currency exchange rates fluctuate daily as a result of a number of factors, including changes in a country's political and economic policies. Volatility in the currencies of our entities and the United States dollar could seriously harm our business, operating results and financial condition. The primary impact of currency exchange fluctuations is on the cash, receivables, payables and expenses of our operating entities. As part of our hedging strategy, we currently use Mexican peso forward contracts to hedge foreign currency fluctuations for a portion of our Mexican peso denominated expenses. We currently do not hedge expenses denominated in RMB. Unexpected losses could occur from increases in the value of these currencies relative to the United States dollar.

Our success will continue to depend to a significant extent on our key personnel.

Our future success depends in large part on the continued service of our key technical, marketing and management personnel and on our ability to continue to attract and retain qualified production employees. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel, particularly in our manufacturing locales that may be experiencing high demand for similar key personnel. The loss of key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

If we are unable to maintain our technological and manufacturing process expertise, our business could be adversely affected.

The markets for our customers’ products is characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, frequent new product introductions and short product life cycles. The introduction of products embodying new technologies or the emergence of new industry standards can render existing products obsolete or unmarketable. Our success will depend upon our customers’ ability to enhance existing products and to develop and introduce, on a timely and cost-effective basis, new products that keep pace with technological developments and emerging industry standards and address evolving and increasingly sophisticated customer requirements. Failure of our customers to do so could substantially harm our customers’ competitive positions. There can be no assurance that our customers will be successful in identifying, developing and marketing products that respond to technological change, emerging industry standards or evolving customer requirements.

Start-up costs and inefficiencies related to new or transferred programs can adversely affect our operating results and such costs may not be recoverable if such new programs or transferred programs are canceled or don’t meet expected sales volumes.

Start-up costs, the management of labor and equipment resources in connection with the establishment of new programs and new customer relationships, and the need to obtain required resources in advance can adversely affect our gross margins and operating results. These factors are particularly evident in the ramping stages of new programs. These factors also affect our ability to efficiently use labor and equipment. We are currently managing a number of new programs. Consequently, our exposure to these factors has increased. In addition, if any of these new programs or new customer relationships were terminated, our operating results could be harmed, particularly in the short term. We may not be able to recoup these start-up costs or replace anticipated new program revenues.

Customers may change production timing and demand schedules which makes it difficult for us to schedule production and capital expenditures and to maximize the efficiency of our manufacturing capacity.

Changes in demand for customer products reduce our ability to accurately estimate the future requirements of our customers. This makes it difficult to schedule production and maximize utilization of our manufacturing capacity. We must determine the levels of business that we will seek and accept from customers, set production schedules, commit to procuring inventory, and allocate personnel and resources, based on our estimates of our customers' requirements. Customers can require sudden increases and decreases in production which can put added stress on resources and reduce margins. Sudden decreases in production can lead to excess inventory on hand which may or may not be reimbursed by our customers even when under contract.

Continued growth could further lead to capacity constraints. We may need to transfer production to other facilities, acquire new facilities, or outsource production which could negatively impact gross margin.

31

An adverse change in the interest rates for our borrowings could adversely affect our financial condition.

We are exposed to interest rate risk under our revolving line of credit and term loan. We currently hedge a portion of our term loan with an interest rate swap. We have not historically hedged the interest rate on our credit facility; therefore, unless we do so, significant changes in interest rates could adversely affect our results of operations. Refer to the discussion in note 4, "Long-Term Debt" to the consolidated financial statements for further details of our debt obligations. We are also exposed to interest rate risk on our factoring activities.

Compliance or the failure to comply with current and future environmental laws or regulations could cause us significant expense.

We are subject to a variety of domestic and foreign environmental regulations relating to the use, storage, and disposal of materials used in our manufacturing processes. If we fail to comply with any present or future regulations, we could be subject to future liabilities or the suspension of current manufacturing operations. In addition, such regulations could restrict our ability to expand our operations or could require us to acquire costly equipment, substitute materials, or incur other significant expenses to comply with government regulations.

Our stock price is volatile.

Holders of the common stock will suffer immediate dilution to the extent outstanding equity awards are exercised to purchase common stock. Our stock price may be subject to wide fluctuations and possible rapid increases or declines over a short time period. These fluctuations may be due to factors specific to us such as our stock's thinly traded nature, variations in quarterly operating results or changes in earnings estimates, or to factors relating to the EMS industry or to the securities markets in general, which, in recent years, have experienced significant price fluctuations. These fluctuations often have been unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies whose stocks are traded.

Due to inherent limitations, there can be no assurance that our system of disclosure and internal controls and procedures will be successful in preventing all errors, theft and fraud, or in informing management of all material information in a timely manner.

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and internal controls and procedures will prevent all errors or fraud. A control system is designed to give reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, any control system reflects resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Inherent limitations of a control system may include: judgments in decision making may be faulty, breakdowns can occur simply because of error or mistake and controls can be circumvented by collusion or management override. Due to the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.

If we do not manage our growth effectively, our profitability could decline.

Our business is experiencing growth which can place considerable additional demands upon our management team and our operational, financial and management information systems. Our ability to manage growth effectively requires us to continue to implement and improve these systems; avoid cost overruns; maintain customer, supplier and other favorable business relationships during possible transition periods; continue to develop the management skills of our managers and supervisors; and continue to train, motivate and manage our employees. Our failure to effectively manage growth could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

32

If our manufacturing processes and services do not comply with applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, or if we manufacture products containing design or manufacturing defects, demand for our services may decline and we may be subject to liability claims.

We manufacture and design products to our customers’ specifications, and, in some cases, our manufacturing processes and facilities may need to comply with applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. For example, medical devices that we manufacture or design, as well as the facilities and manufacturing processes that we use to produce them, are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration and non-U.S. counterparts of this agency. In addition, our customers’ products and the manufacturing processes that we use to produce them often are highly complex. As a result, products that we manufacture may at times contain manufacturing or design defects, and our manufacturing processes may be subject to errors or not be in compliance with applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. Defects in the products we manufacture or design, whether caused by a design, manufacturing or component failure or error, or deficiencies in our manufacturing processes, may result in delayed shipments to customers or reduced or canceled customer orders. If these defects or deficiencies are significant, our business reputation may also be damaged. The failure of the products that we manufacture or our manufacturing processes and facilities to comply with applicable statutory and regulatory requirements may subject us to legal fines or penalties and, in some cases, require us to shut down or incur considerable expense to correct a manufacturing process or facility. Our customers are required to indemnify us against liability associated with designing products to meet their specifications. However, if our customers are responsible for the defects, they may not, or may not have resources to, assume responsibility for any costs or liabilities arising from these defects, which could expose us to additional liability claims.

Energy price increases may negatively impact our results of operations.

Certain components that we use in our manufacturing process are petroleum-based. In addition, we, along with our suppliers and customers, rely on various energy sources in our transportation activities. While significant uncertainty currently exists about the future levels of energy prices, a significant increase is possible. Increased energy prices could cause an increase to our raw material costs and transportation costs. In addition, increased transportation costs related to certain suppliers and customers could be passed along to us. We may not be able to increase our product prices enough to offset these increased costs. In addition, any increase in our product prices may reduce our future customer orders and profitability.

Disruptions to our information systems, including security breaches, losses of data or outages, could adversely affect our operations.

We rely on information technology networks and systems to process, transmit and store electronic information. In particular, we depend on our information technology infrastructure for a variety of functions, including worldwide financial reporting, inventory management, procurement, invoicing and email communications. Any of these systems may be susceptible to outages due to fire, floods, power loss, telecommunications failures, terrorist attacks and similar events. Despite the implementation of network security measures, our systems and those of third parties on which we rely may also be vulnerable to computer viruses, break-ins and similar disruptions. If we or our vendors are unable to prevent such outages and breaches, our operations could be disrupted.

We are involved in various legal proceedings.

In the past, we have been notified of claims relating to various matters including contractual matters, intellectual property rights or other issues arising in the ordinary course of business. In the event of such a claim, we may be required to spend a significant amount of money to defend or otherwise address the claim. Any litigation or dispute resolution, even where a claim is without merit, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. Accordingly, the resolution or adjudication of such disputes, even those encountered in the ordinary course of business, could have a material effect on our business, consolidated financial conditions and results of operations.

33

Our levels of insurance coverage may not be sufficient for potential damages, claims or losses.

We have various forms of business and liability insurance which we believe are appropriate based on the needs of companies in our industry. As a result, not all of our potential business risks or potential losses would be covered by our insurance policies. If we sustain a significant claim or loss which is not covered by insurance, our net income could be negatively impacted.

Changes in securities laws and regulations will increase our costs and risk of noncompliance.

We are required to file as an accelerated filer. As such, we are subject to additional requirements contained in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) and more recently the Dodd-Frank Act. The Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank Acts required or will require changes in some of our corporate governance, securities disclosure and compliance practices. In response to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank Acts, the SEC and NASDAQ promulgated new rules and additional rulemaking is expected in the future. Compliance with these new rules and future rules has increased and may increase further our legal, financial and accounting costs as well as a potential risk of noncompliance. Absent significant changes in related rules, which we cannot assure, we anticipate some level of increased costs related to these new regulations to continue indefinitely. We also expect these developments to make it more difficult and more expensive to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be forced to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. Likewise, these developments may make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our Board of Directors or qualified management personnel. Further, the costs associated with the compliance with and implementation of procedures under these and future laws and related rules could have a material impact on our results of operations. In addition, the costs associated with noncompliance with additional securities laws and regulations could also impact our business.

We may encounter complications with acquisitions, which could potentially harm our business.

Any current or future acquisitions may require additional equity financing, which could be dilutive to our existing shareholders, or additional debt financing, which could potentially affect our credit ratings. Any downgrades in our credit ratings associated with an acquisition could adversely affect our ability to borrow by resulting in more restrictive borrowing terms. To integrate acquired businesses, we must implement our management information systems, operating systems and internal controls, and assimilate and manage the personnel of the acquired operations. The integration of acquired businesses may be further complicated by difficulties managing operations in geographically dispersed locations. The integration of acquired businesses may not be successful and could result in disruption by diverting management’s attention from the core business. In addition, the integration of acquired businesses may require that we incur significant restructuring charges or other increases in our expenses and working capital requirements, which reduce our return on invested capital.

Acquisitions may involve numerous other risks and challenges including but not limited to: potential loss of key employees and customers of the acquired companies; the potential for deficiencies in internal controls at acquired companies; lack of experience operating in the geographic market or industry sector of the acquired business; constraints on available liquidity, and exposure to unanticipated liabilities of acquired companies. These and other factors could harm our ability to achieve anticipated levels of profitability at acquired operations or realize other anticipated benefits of an acquisition, and could adversely affect our consolidated business and operating results.

Our identifiable intangible assets could become impaired, which could reduce the value of our assets and reduce net income in the year in which the write-off occurs.

The Company ascribes value to certain identifiable intangible assets, which consists of favorable leases, as a result of the acquisitions of Sabre and Ayrshire. The Company may incur further impairment charges of identifiable intangible assets if it determines that the fair values of the identifiable intangible assets are less than their current carrying values. The Company evaluates, on a regular basis, whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate all, or a portion, of the carrying amount of intangibles may no longer be recoverable, in which case an impairment charge to earnings would become necessary.

Refer to Notes 2 and 12 to the consolidated financial statements and critical accounting policies and estimates’ in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for further discussion regarding the impairment testing of identifiable intangible assets.

A decline in general economic conditions or global equity valuations could impact the judgments and assumptions about the fair value of the Company’s businesses and the Company could be required to record impairment charges on its other identifiable intangible assets in the future, which could impact the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, as well as the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. The Company notes further impairment of intangibles would not have a material impact on the financial statements noted above. If the Company was required to recognize an impairment charge in the future, the charge would not impact the Company's consolidated cash flows, current liquidity, capital resources, and covenants under its existing credit facilities.

34

Changes in financial accounting standards may affect our reported financial condition or results of operations as well increase costs related to implementation of new standards and modifications to internal controls.

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. These principles are subject to amendments made primarily by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). A change in those policies can have a significant effect on our reported results and may affect our reporting of transactions which are completed before a change is announced. For example, significant changes to revenue recognition rules are effective for us in fiscal 2019 and we may have material fluctuations in revenue from quarter to quarter once implemented. Changes to accounting rules or challenges to our interpretation or application of the rules by regulators may have a material adverse effect on our reported financial results or on the way we conduct business. In addition, the continued convergence of U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) creates uncertainty as to the financial accounting policies and practices we will need to adopt in the future.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to the risk of fluctuating interest rates in the normal course of business. Our major market risk relates to our secured debt. Our revolving credit facility, term loan and equipment term loan are secured by substantially all of our assets. The interest rates applicable to our revolving credit facility, term loan and equipment term loan fluctuate with the Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. prime rate and LIBOR rates. There was outstanding $18.1 million in borrowings under our revolving credit facility, $12.5 million outstanding on our term loan and $2.0 million outstanding on our equipment term loan as of March 30, 2019. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Capital Resources and Liquidity” and Note 4 – “Long-Term Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our revolving credit facility and term loans.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2015, we entered into an interest rate swap contract related to the borrowings outstanding under the term loan. As of March 30, 2019, the remaining notional amount of the interest rate swap contract was $4.0 million. Our only material interest rate risk is associated with our revolving credit facility, term loan and equipment term loan. Through the use of the interest rate swap, as described above, we fixed the basis on which we pay interest on our term loan, thus eliminating some of our interest rate risk. See Note 10 – “Derivative Financial Instruments” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our derivative instruments.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

A significant portion of our operations are in foreign locations. As a result, transactions occur in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Exchange rate fluctuations among other currencies used by us would directly or indirectly affect our financial results. We currently use Mexican peso forward contracts to hedge foreign currency fluctuations for a portion of our Mexican peso denominated expenses. There was outstanding $33.6 million of foreign currency forward contracts as of March 30, 2019. The fair value of these contracts was $2.7 million. See Note 10 – “Derivative Financial Instruments” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our derivative instruments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

It is the responsibility of our management to establish, maintain, and monitor disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Additionally, these disclosure controls include controls and procedures that are designed to accumulate and communicate the information required to be disclosed to our company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, allowing for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Based on our assessment, we believe that as of March 30, 2019, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective based on that criteria.

Due to inherent limitations of any internal control system, management acknowledges that there are limitations as to the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting and therefore recognize that only reasonable assurance can be gained from any internal control system. Accordingly, our internal control system may not detect or prevent material misstatements in our financial statements and projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

35

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended March 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(f) and 15d – 15(f)).

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION:

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
