Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 – Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations

ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. (the “Company” or “ARC”) is a leading, global advanced manufacturer offering a full suite of products and services to its customers, including: (i) metal injection molding (“MIM”); (ii) 3D metal and plastic printing (also referred to as “Additive Manufacturing”); (iii) precision metal stamping; (iv) traditional and clean room plastic injection molding; and (v) advanced rapid and conformal tooling.  Through the Company’s diverse product offering, ARC provides its customers with a holistic prototyping and full-run production solution for both precision metal and plastic fabrication.  The Company further differentiates itself from its competitors by providing innovative, custom capabilities, which improve high-precision manufacturing efficiency and speed-to-market for its customers.

ARC’s mission is to accelerate the adoption of key technologies, such as automation, robotics, production software, and 3D printing, in traditional manufacturing, thereby benefiting from the elimination of inefficiencies currently present in the global supply chain.  Further, ARC seeks to create innovative ways to streamline and improve the overall manufacturing process, including offering instant online quoting, in-house rapid and advanced conformal tooling, and a full suite of prototype-to-production capabilities.

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s fiscal year begins July 1 and ends June 30, and the quarters for interim reporting consist of thirteen weeks; therefore, the quarter end will not always coincide with the date of the calendar month-end.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and results of operations.  Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year.  The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016, was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including notes required by GAAP.  As such, this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.  The Company follows the same accounting policies for preparing quarterly and annual reports.  

Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the amounts of ARC and its controlled subsidiaries.  All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

NOTE 2 – Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Due to the inherent uncertainties in making estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

6

Non-Controlling Interests

In connection with the acquisitions of FloMet LLC and Tekna Seal LLC, the Company obtained a majority interest in the subsidiaries and control of the subsidiaries' boards of directors.   During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company purchased approximately 1.9% of the outstanding non-controlling membership interests of Tekna Seal LLC.  On September 30, 2016, the Company sold Tekna Seal LLC, which included 95.7% owned by the Company and 4.3% held by minority stakeholders (see Note 3, Discontinued Operations, for more information).  On October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, third party investors owned approximately 3.8% of the outstanding membership interests of FloMet LLC.  The Company has recognized the carrying value of the non-controlling interests as a component of stockholders’ equity for the applicable periods presented.

Comprehensive Income

For each of the quarters ended October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, there were no material differences between net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Period

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.  This update requires an entity to classify deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current within a classified statement of financial position.  ASU 2015-17 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2016, but early adoption is permitted.  This update may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented.  The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-17 on a prospective basis as of July 1, 2016; therefore, the prior period was not retrospectively adjusted.  The adoption of ASU 2015-17 did not have an impact on our consolidated results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs to ASC Topic 835, Interest - Imputation of Interest (“ASU 2015-03”).  ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset.  Amortization of debt issuance costs will continue to be reported as interest expense.  ASU 2015-03 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2015.

The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-03 on July 1, 2016, which required retroactive application and represented a change in accounting principle.  The deferred financing costs of approximately $1.3 million associated with a portion of our outstanding debt, which were previously included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016, are reflected as a reduction to the carrying liability of the Company’s outstanding debt.  As a result of this change in accounting principle, the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016 was adjusted as follows (in thousands):

	June 30, 2016
	Previously		Effect of Adoption of
	Reported		Accounting Principle		As Adjusted
Assets:
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	4,378	$	(429)	$	3,949
Other assets	$	948	$	(920)	$	28
Total assets	$	121,798	$	(1,349)	$	120,449
Liabilities:
Bank borrowings, current portion of long-term debt	$	15,909	$	(261)	$	15,648
Long-term debt, net of current portion	$	37,857	$	(1,088)	$	36,769
Total liabilities	$	77,255	$	(1,349)	$	75,906

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”).  ASU 2016-15 clarifies and provides specific guidance on eight cash flow classification issues that are not currently addressed by GAAP and thereby reduce the diversity in practice.  ASU

7

2016-15 is effective for public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted.  This guidance is applicable to the Company's fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018.  The Company does not anticipate that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases: Topic 842 (“ASU 2016-02”), to supersede nearly all existing lease guidance under GAAP.  ASU 2016-02 requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases currently classified as operating leases.  ASU 2016-02 also requires qualitative disclosures along with specific quantitative disclosures and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early application is permitted.  Entities are required to apply the amendments at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach.  The Company is evaluating the requirements of this guidance and has not yet determined the impact of the adoption on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 (“ASU 2014-09”), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP.  The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services.  ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing GAAP including 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.  In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which defers the effective date for one year beyond the originally specified effective date.  ASU 2014-09 is effective in the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2019 and may transition to the standard using either the full retrospective approach or retrospectively with a cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments recognized at the date of initial application.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 – Discontinued Operations

On September 30, 2016, the Company sold its non-core subsidiary, Tekna Seal LLC (“Tekna Seal”), to Winchester Electronics Corporation (“Winchester”) pursuant to a Membership Interests Purchase Agreement for $10.5 million in cash.  The sale to Winchester covered all of the membership interests of Tekna Seal, including 95.7% owned by the Company and 4.3% held by the Tekna Seal minority stakeholders.  The proceeds of the sale, after giving effect to any working capital adjustments, will be allocated among the Company and the minority sellers proportionate to their respective ownership of pre-closing membership interests.  The Company used the net cash proceeds of the sale to repay principal outstanding under the Company’s revolving loan. 

Below is a summary of the gain on sale of discontinued operations (in thousands):

New Senior Credit Agreement

On September 29, 2016, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, entered into a new senior asset-based lending credit agreement with Citizens Bank, N.A. (the “Senior ABL Credit Facility”).

The Senior ABL Credit Facility provides the Company with the following extensions of credit and loans: (1) a Revolving Commitment in the principal amount of $25.0 million (the “Revolving Loan”) and (2) a mortgage-based Term Loan Commitment in the principal amount of $17.5 million (the “Term Loan”).  The loans under the Senior ABL Credit Facility are secured by liens on substantially all domestic assets of the Company and guaranteed by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries who are not borrowers under the Senior ABL Credit Facility.

The aggregate amount of revolving loans permitted under the Senior ABL Credit Facility may not exceed a borrowing base consisting of: (i) the sum of 85% of certain eligible accounts receivable, plus (ii) the lesser of 65% of the value of certain eligible inventory and 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of certain eligible inventory, plus (iii) an amount not to exceed $4.2 million, which amount will be adjusted based on the face amount of certain letters of credit issued to Citizens Bank, N.A. in connection with certain operating leases and capitalized leases, minus (iv) reserves for any amounts which the lender deems necessary or appropriate.

Borrowings under the Senior ABL Credit Facility may be made as Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans.  The Base Rate loans will bear interest at the fluctuating rate per annum equal to (i) the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1/2 of 1.00%, (b) Citizens own prime rate; and (c) the adjusted Eurodollar rate on such day for an interest period of one (1) month plus 1.00%; and (ii) plus the Applicable Rate, as described below.  Eurodollar Rate Loans will bear interest at the rate per annum equal to (i) the ICE Benchmark Administration LIBOR Rate; plus (ii) the Applicable Rate.  The “Applicable Rate” will be (a) 2.50% with respect to Base Rate Loans that are Term Loans and 3.50% with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are Term Loans, and (b) 2.50% with respect to Base Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans and 3.50% with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans, in each case until December 31, 2016, and thereafter the Applicable Rate will be adjusted quarterly, responsive to the Company’s Quarterly Average Availability Percentage, ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% with respect to Base Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans and from 2.25% to 2.75% with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans.  In addition to interest payments on the Senior ABL Credit Facility loans, the Company will pay commitment fees to the lender of 0.375% per quarter on undrawn Revolving Loans.  The Company will also pay other customary fees and reimbursements of costs and disbursements to the lender.

The Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan is August 11, 2019, provided, however, upon repayment of Company subordinated indebtedness the maturity date will automatically extend to five years after the Closing Date for Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments, and with respect to the Term Loans, the earlier of the date that is (i) ten years after the Closing Date and (ii) the maturity date of the Revolving Loans.  The Senior ABL Credit Facility contains certain mandatory prepayment provisions, including mandatory prepayments due in respect of sales of assets, sales of equity securities, events of default and other customary events, with exceptions for non-core business dispositions.

12

The Senior ABL Credit Facility contains customary covenants and negative covenants regarding operation of the Company’s business, including maintenance of certain financial ratios, as well as restrictions on dispositions of Company assets.

In connection with the Senior ABL Credit Facility, the Company and the Borrowers together with certain subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”), have entered into an Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with Citizens Bank, N.A. dated as of September 29, 2016, which secures all of the loans and credits drawn from the Senior ABL Credit Facility by the Borrowers.  The security interests established under the Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement include senior secured liens on substantially all of the assets of the Guarantors.  The Guarantors have agreed to guarantee the unconditional payment and performance to the lender of all obligations of the Borrowers under the Senior ABL Credit Facility.

As of October 2, 2016, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants under the Senior ABL Credit Facility. 

Prior Amended & Restated Credit Agreement

On September 29, 2016, the Company refinanced all of the existing long-term debt obligations with Citizens Bank, N.A. into the Senior ABL Credit Facility described above.  The Company accounted for the refinancing as an extinguishment of debt and wrote off $0.7 million of previously deferred financing fees. 

Subordinated Term Loan Credit Agreement

On November 10, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a $20.0 million, five-year Subordinated Term Loan Credit Agreement (“Subordinated Loan Agreement”) with McLarty Capital Partners SBIC, L.P. (“McLarty”), which bears interest at 11% annually.  Upon an event of default under the Subordinated Loan Agreement, the interest rate increases automatically by 2.00% annually.  The proceeds were used to repay certain outstanding loans under the Company’s previous credit facility. McLarty is indirectly a related party to one of the officers and directors of the Company; therefore, the Board of Directors appointed a special committee consisting solely of independent directors to assure that the Subordinated Loan Agreement is fair and reasonable to the Company and its shareholders. 

On April 20, 2016, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Subordinated Loan Agreement (“McLarty Second Amendment”), as previously amended on December 29, 2014, to modify certain terms including: 

(1) Allows for the exclusion from the fixed charge coverage ratio $1.3 million of certain federal and state taxes paid related to prior years, effective March 27, 2016;

(2) Modifies the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and maximum total leverage ratio in line with the Company’s current financial expectations, effective March 27, 2016; and

(3) Establishes mandatory prepayments that will be required upon the completion of asset sales or sale-leaseback transactions, with the amount of the prepayments to be determined based upon achievement of certain leverage ratios.

The Subordinated Loan Agreement has been subordinated to the Senior ABL Credit Facility pursuant to a First Lien Subordination Agreement.  The Subordinated Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, affirmative covenants, negative covenants, and prepayment terms that are similar to those contained in the Senior ABL Credit Facility described above.   

As of October 2, 2016, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants under the Subordinated Credit Facility.

Loan Contract

On March 23, 2016, AFT-Hungary Kft. (“AFT Hungary”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Loan Contract with Erste Bank Hungary Zrt. in an amount equal to €4.0 million (“Loan Contract”).  The initial funding of €4.0 million drawn on the Loan Contract occurred on March 31, 2016.  Approximately $3.0 million of the net proceeds from the Loan Contract were used to partially repay obligations outstanding under the Amended & Restated Credit Agreement, with the remaining net proceeds to be used for capital expenditures and other investments to facilitate the export of goods and services provided by AFT Hungary.

13

The loan matures on March 7, 2021, and bears interest at a fixed rate of 0.98% per annum.  The Company is required to make semi-annual principal payments in an amount equal to approximately €400,000 along with monthly interest payments.  The Loan Contract is secured by certain of AFT Hungary’s assets, including the real estate and selected machinery and equipment located in Retsag, Hungary.

Future Debt Payments

The following schedule represents the Company’s future debt payments as of October 2, 2016 (in thousands):

2017 (1)	$	1,104
2018		1,770
2019		1,770
2020		21,770
2021		18,226
Total	$	44,640

(1) Represents long-term debt principal payments for the nine month period ending June 30, 2017.

NOTE 9 – Income Taxes

The balance of income taxes receivable was $0 and $1.6 million at October 2, 2016 and June 30, 2016, respectively.  The decrease in the income taxes receivable during the three months ended October 2, 2016, was primarily associated with the receipt of a federal income tax refund of approximately $0.9 million related to the carryback of the Company’s 2015 net operating loss.  The remaining income taxes receivable has been netted to reflect a current period taxes payable of $0.5 million due primarily to the gain on the sale of Tekna Seal.  The Company had unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions of $1.1 million and $1.0 million on October 2, 2016 and June 30, 2016, respectively, which are included in other long-term liabilities. 

NOTE 10 – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period.  Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the diluted weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during each period.  In connection with the acquisitions of ATC and Kecy, the Company issued a total of 905,414 shares of common stock, which were placed in escrow to satisfy certain working capital adjustments and/or indemnification obligations. As these escrow shares are expected to be returned to the Company, the escrow shares have been excluded from the basic and diluted earnings per share computations.  In February 2016, the 233,788 shares of common stock previously issued for the ATC acquisition were returned to the Company and retired. 

As a result of the Company’s net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended October 2, 2016, potentially dilutive stock options of approximately 134,927 were considered anti-dilutive and were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.  For the three months ended September 27, 2015, the Company had no outstanding equity awards or other potentially dilutive securities; therefore, there was no computation of dilutive securities. 

14

NOTE 11 – Share-Based Compensation

In November 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”), which is administered by the Compensation Committee (“Committee”) of the Board of Directors.  The 2015 Plan reserves for issuance a total of 950,000 shares of common stock, which may be in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, or other types of awards as authorized under the plan.  As of October 2, 2016, there were 7,125 shares of common stock available to be granted under the 2015 Plan.  In the case of stock options, the exercise price of the stock options granted may not be less than the fair market value of a share of common stock at the date of grant.  The Committee determines the vesting conditions of awards; however, the performance period for an award subject to the satisfaction of performance measures may not exceed five years.  The 2015 Plan will terminate ten years after its adoption, unless terminated earlier by the Company’s Board of Directors.

A summary of stock option activity under the 2015 Plan as of October 2, 2016 is as follows:

		Weighted		Weighted Average
		Average Exercise		Remaining Contractual
	Shares	Price		Term (in years)
Outstanding as of June 30, 2016	759,050	$	1.51
Granted	190,950	$	2.50
Forfeited	(7,125)	$	1.51
Outstanding as of October 2, 2016	942,875	$	1.71	6.41
Vested and exercisable as of October 2, 2016	292,513	$	2.11	6.66
Vested and expected to vest as of October 2, 2016	840,437	$	1.73	6.42

Stock options granted during the three month period ending October 2, 2016 have contractual lives of seven years.  The weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the three months ended October 2, 2016 was $1.46 per share. The total fair value of shares vested during the three months ended October 2, 2016 was $0.5 million.

Determining Fair Value

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes method.  The assumptions used to determine the value of the Company’s stock options granted to employees during the three month period ended October 2, 2016 were as follows:

Expected term	3.50		-	4.75	years
Expected volatility	78.8	%	-	85.0	%
Expected dividend yield	-	%
Risk-free interest rate	1.02	%	-	1.19	%

Expected Term – The expected term represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding.  The Company uses the simplified method, as permitted by the SEC, to calculate the expected term, as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected life in years. The simplified method is calculated as the average of the time-to-vesting and the contractual life of the options.

Expected Volatility – Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, which we believe will be indicative of future experience. 

Expected Dividends – The Company has never paid dividends on its common stock and currently does not intend to do so in the near term, and accordingly, the dividend yield percentage is zero.

Risk-Free Interest Rate - The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant with a term equal to the expected term of the stock option granted.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

Compensation expense recognized during the three month period ended October 2, 2016 was $0.3 million, and is included in selling, general and administrative expense.  As of October 2, 2016, there was $0.4 million of total

15

unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.3 years.  The Company estimated expected forfeitures and is recognizing compensation expense only for those option grants expected to vest.  The Company’s estimate of forfeitures may be adjusted throughout the requisite service period based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are likely to differ, from the Company’s previous estimates.  At the end of the service period compensation cost will have been recognized only for those awards for which the employee has provided the requisite service.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Under the terms of the Company’s employee stock purchase plan ("ESPP"), eligible employees may authorize payroll deductions up to 5% of their base pay to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the closing price at the beginning or end of each six-month purchase period.  A total of 750,000 shares were authorized under the ESPP.  The purchase period began on August 1, 2016; therefore, no shares have been purchased under the Company’s ESPP as of October 2, 2016.

NOTE 12 – Commitments and Contingencies

The Company leases land, facilities, and equipment under various non-cancellable operating lease agreements expiring through August 31, 2024, which contain various renewal options.  The Company also leases equipment under non-cancellable capital lease agreements expiring through June 30, 2024.  The capital leases have interest rates ranging from 3.0% to 5.8%.

From time to time, the Company is a party to various litigation matters incidental to the conduct of its business.  As of October 2, 2016, the Company is not presently a party to any legal proceedings, the resolution of which, management believes, would have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results, financial condition, or cash flows.

NOTE 13 – Segment Information

Overview

ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. is a leading, global advanced manufacturer offering a full suite of products and services to our customers, including: (i) metal injection molding (“MIM”); (ii) 3D metal and plastic printing (also referred to as “Additive Manufacturing”); (iii) precision metal stamping; (iv) traditional and clean room plastic injection molding; and (v) advanced rapid and conformal tooling.  Through our diverse product offering, we provide our customers with a holistic prototyping and full-run production solution for both precision metal and plastic fabrication.  We further differentiate ourselves from our competitors by providing innovative, custom capabilities, which improve high-precision manufacturing efficiency and speed-to-market for our customers.

Our mission is to accelerate the adoption of key technologies, such as automation, robotics, production software, and 3D printing, in traditional manufacturing, thereby benefiting from the elimination of inefficiencies currently present in the global supply chain.  Further, we seek to create innovative ways to streamline and improve the overall manufacturing process, including offering instant online quoting, in-house rapid and advanced conformal tooling, and a full suite of prototype-to-production capabilities.

More specifically, the two key pillars of our business strategy are centered on the following areas:

· Holistic Manufacturing Solution.  The metal and plastic fabrication industries are highly fragmented sectors with numerous single-solution providers.  Given the inefficiencies associated with working with these disjointed groups, many manufacturers seek to improve their supplier base by working with more scaled, holistic providers.  Our strategy is to facilitate the consolidation and streamlining of global supply chains by offering a holistic solution to our customers’ manufacturing needs.  In particular, ARC provides a “one-stop shop” solution to our customers by offering a spectrum of highly advanced products, processes, and services, thereby delivering highly-engineered precision components at efficient production yields.

· Accelerating Speed-to-Market.  The traditional prototype-to-production process is often subject to lengthy bottlenecks and is characterized by inefficient price quoting delays, time-consuming tooling procedures, and outdated production methodologies.  To differentiate itself from competitors, ARC focuses on reducing inefficiencies in the development cycle by offering the seamless integration of a wide-variety of proprietary technologies in order to dramatically reduce the time and cost associated with new product development.  Specifically, the Company has developed rapid and instant online quoting solutions, rapid prototype solutions, short-run production services, in-house rapid and advanced conformal tooling, and rapid full production capabilities.

Separately, we believe that U.S. manufacturing is poised for a rejuvenation as global wage disparities mitigate and traditional labor-intensive processes are displaced by technology.  We believe these macroeconomic trends may aid in the adoption of our business strategy.

Our key fundamental strengths are built upon core capabilities, including:

· Metal Injection Molding.  We are a large and well-respected MIM provider.  As a pioneer of MIM technology, and driven by our material science understanding, powder metallurgy experience, and established global facilities, we are one of the most advanced MIM operators in the marketplace.  ARC provides high-quality, complex, precise net-shape metal components to market-leading companies in numerous sectors, including the medical and dental, firearm and defense, automotive, aerospace, consumer durable, and electronic device industries.  Further, our process is highly automated, utilizing advanced robotics and automation to ensure high levels of quality and efficiency.

20

· 3D Printing.  We offer a variety of 3D printing solutions, with an emphasis on: (i) metal 3D printing; and (ii) rapid and advanced conformal tooling.  In general, given promising signs of growth and related barriers to entry, we believe the metal 3D printing sector to be one of the more attractive segments of the overall Additive Manufacturing industry.  Furthermore, metal 3D printing, while a complex technology still in its early stages, shares several fundamental similarities with our MIM business, thereby helping to accelerate our research and development.  Separately, our metal 3D printing capabilities enable ARC to offer a variety of new services, including rapid prototyping, rapid tooling and short-run production, helping our customers improve their product speed-to-market.  Given our established customer base, diverse metallurgy background, and scalable injection molding capabilities, we believe we are well-positioned in the industrial metal 3D printing market.

· Additional Metal and Plastic Fabrication Capabilities.  We offer a number of additional specialty metal and plastic fabrication capabilities that enable us to provide our customers with a full suite of custom-component products.  Our specialty capabilities include precision stamping, magnesium injection molding, computer numerical control machining, plastic injection molding (including medical clean room applications), and fitting and flange manufacturing.

· Wireless.  Our wireless business designs and develops hardware, including antennas, radios, and related accessories, used in broadband and other wireless networks.  Products are sold to public and private carriers, wireless infrastructure providers, wireless equipment distributors, value-added resellers, and other original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”).  Further, we believe there is an opportunity to increase utilization of our wireless technology to wirelessly connect the manufacturing floor and industrial products/applications, as the world moves to a more wireless based framework.

Our overall growth strategy is centered on:

· driving organic improvement through the expansion and cross-selling of our core services to existing clients;

· accelerating the adoption of our technology by new customers in traditional manufacturing markets;

· expanding our holistic service offerings through strategic vertical and horizontal acquisitions; and

· improving financial and operational results from the implementation of operational best practices. 

Accordingly, all of our business divisions are managed consistently with this strategy in order to drive organic sales growth and operational efficiencies, while improving quality, speed, and service to our customers.

Sales

For the Three Months Ended October 2, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 27, 2015

Sales from continuing operations during the three month period ended October 2, 2016, totaled $26.8 million, representing an increase of $3.2 million, or 13.6%, from $23.6 million during the three month period ended September 27, 2015.  The change in sales by reportable segment was as follows:

· Precision Components Group sales were $19.3 million during the three month period ended October 2, 2016, representing an increase of approximately $2.2 million, or 12.9%, as compared with sales of $17.1 million in the prior year period.  The increase in sales was primarily due to higher MIM sales of $2.1 million.  MIM sales increased primarily as a result of higher sales to customers in the firearm and defense, and automotive industries. 

· 3DMT Group sales were $6.1 million during the three month period ended October 2, 2016, representing an increase of approximately $1.0 million, or 19.6%, as compared with sales of $5.1 million in the prior year period.  The increase in sales was primarily due to higher plastic injection molding sales of $1.8 million, partially offset by lower tooling sales of $0.7 million as more of the tool production is for internal ownership and use.

· Flanges and Fittings Group sales were $1.1 million during the three month period ended October 2, 2016, representing a decrease of approximately $0.1 million, or 8.3%, as compared with sales of $1.2 million in the prior year period.  The decrease was primarily due to lower sales to customers in the oil and gas industry and increased competition.

· Wireless Group sales were $0.2 million during the three month period ended October 2, 2016 representing a decrease of approximately $0.1 million as compared with sales of $0.3 million in the prior year period.  The decrease in sales is primarily due to increased competition in the frequency space and applications in which our products are used.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is affected by a number of factors including product mix, cost of labor and raw materials, unit volumes, pricing, competition, new products and services, new customer programs, and capacity utilization.  In the case of new customer programs, profitability normally lags revenue growth due to product start-up costs, lower manufacturing volumes in the start-up phase, operational inefficiencies, and under-absorbed overhead.  Gross margin often improves as manufacturing volumes increase, which improves our utilization rates and overhead absorption.  As a result of these various factors, our gross margin varies from period to period.

For the Three Months Ended October 2, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 27, 2015

On a consolidated basis gross profit from continuing operations was $5.0 million during the three month period ended October 2, 2016, representing an increase of approximately $0.9 million, or 22.0%, as compared with gross profit of $4.1 million in the prior year period.  Gross margin increased to 18.6% in the three month period ended October 2, 2016, compared with 17.4% in the three month period ended September 27, 2015.  Gross profit by reportable segment was as follows:

· Precision Components Group gross profit was $3.9 million during the three month period ended October 2, 2016, representing an increase of approximately $1.2 million, or 44.4%, as compared with gross profit of $2.7 million in the prior year period.  Gross margin increased to 20.4% in the three month period ended October 2, 2016, compared with 15.8% in the three month period ended September 27, 2015.  The primary reason for the increase in gross profit was due to higher production volume at our MIM facilities in Colorado.  The primary reason for the increase in gross margin percentage was due to increased production and improved efficiency at our MIM facilities in Colorado.

22

· 3DMT Group gross profit was $0.7 million during the three month period ended October 2, 2016, representing a decrease of $0.2 million, or 22.2%, as compared with gross profit of $0.9 million in the prior year period.  Gross margin decreased to 10.9% in the three month period ended October 2, 2016, compared with 17.8% in the three month period ended September 27, 2015.  The primary reason for the decrease in gross profit was lower tooling sales as we are building more tools for internal ownership and use.  Gross margin percentage decreased on tooling sales due to higher labor and contracting costs as we are building more complex products.

· Flanges and Fittings Group gross profit was $0.3 million during the three month periods ended October 2, 2016 representing a decrease of $0.1 million, or 25.0%, as compared with gross profit of $0.4 million in the prior year period.  The decrease in gross profit was due to certain non-recurring refunds of duties received in the prior year.

· Wireless Group gross profit was $0.1 million during the three month periods ended October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015. 

The following paragraphs discuss other items affecting the results of our operations for the three months ended October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) from continuing operations totaled $5.0 million, or 18.8% of sales, during the three month period ended October 2, 2016, compared with $4.0 million, or 17.0% of sales, during the three month period ended September 27, 2015.  The increase in SG&A expense during the three month period ended October 2, 2016 was primarily due to higher labor related costs of $0.7 million, of which $0.3 million was related to stock based compensation, and higher outside service fees of $0.3 million. 

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net was $1.1 million during the three month periods ended October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015.  In connection with the refinancing of the Company’s senior secured credit facility and the retirement of debt resulting from proceeds from the sale of Tekna Seal, both in September 2016, the Company expects interest expense will decrease during the subsequent quarters in fiscal year 2017.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

During the three months ended October 2, 2016, approximately $0.7 million of unamortized deferred financing costs were expensed as a result of the extinguishment of our First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

Discontinued Operations

In September 2016, the Company sold its subsidiary Tekna Seal LLC pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Membership Interests Purchase Agreement.  The sale covered all of the membership interests of Tekna Seal, including 95.7% owned by the Company and 4.3% held by the Tekna Seal minority stakeholders.  As a result of this transaction, income from continuing operations excludes the income from discontinued operations, before tax of $0.1 million and the gain on disposition of this business, after tax of $4.2 million.

Income Tax Benefit

Income tax benefit from continuing operations was $1.3 million for the three month period ended October 2, 2016, compared to $0.4 million for the three month period ended September 27, 2015. 

The primary reason for the increase in the tax benefit in the three month period ended October 2, 2016 was our net loss and the amortization of indefinite-lived intangible assets that were not available to offset existing deferred tax assets (termed a “naked credit”).

23

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of October 2, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.9 million.  We anticipate our cash on hand and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to finance our operations for the next twelve months.  In order to provide additional liquidity in the future and to help support our strategic goals, we have a senior secured revolving loan, with a current borrowing capacity of up to $25.0 million.  After consideration of $3.1 million of borrowings outstanding, our remaining borrowing capacity was $21.9 million at October 2, 2016.  Any additional borrowings under the senior secured revolving loan are subject to compliance with the terms of our Senior ABL Credit Facility.

Under the new Senior ABL Credit Facility with Citizens Bank, N.A., we will not maintain any cash on hand in our domestic bank accounts by design.  Instead, we maintain a $25.0 million asset based revolver loan as part of our loan agreement that includes an automatic cash sweep feature that identifies any cash available in our bank accounts at the end of a banking business day and then applies that cash to reduce our outstanding revolver loan balance for that day to fund our continuing operations.  The reduction serves to decrease our daily interest expense to the extent cash is available and swept over to reduce the revolver loan.  Disbursements are paid daily from cash being made available under our revolver loan based on a borrowing base calculation.

Cash held in financial institutions outside the United States totaled $1.2 million and $1.6 million as of October 2, 2016 and June 30, 2016, respectively.  Our Hungarian subsidiary, where these funds are held, is taxed in a similar manner to our domestic subsidiaries.  Thus, we would not incur a material tax obligation should we decide to repatriate these funds.   

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $1.1 million to $0.4 million for the three months ended October 2, 2016, as compared to $1.5 million of cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended September 27, 2015, primarily due to the following:

· A pre-tax gain of $5.7 million recognized on the sale of our subsidiary, the cash from which is recognized as an investing activity;

· Deferred income taxes decreased $1.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 primarily due to applying an annualized effective tax rate to the quarter results of $0.5 million and a reduction in deferred taxes attributable to the subsidiary that was sold of $0.4 million;

· The reductions in cash provided by operating activities were partially offset by an increase in net income of $4.1 million; and

· An increase in cash provided by changes in working capital of $1.3 million.  Cash provided by operations in fiscal year 2017 was due in part to cash received from income tax refunds of approximately $0.9 million.  Increases in accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses were primarily due to higher sales volume.  In addition, accrued expenses increased due to accruals for professional fees related to the sale of Tekna Seal and the refinancing of debt.

Investing Activities

Cash provided by investing activities increased $9.8 million to $9.2 million for the three months ended October 2, 2016 as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $0.6 million for the three months ended September 27, 2015, primarily due to the following:

· Proceeds received from the sale of our subsidiary of $10.5 million; and

· Partially offset by an increase in cash used to purchase property and equipment of $1.3 million.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities increased $7.8 million to $9.4 million in the three months ended October 2, 2016, as compared to cash used of $1.6 million in the three months ended September 27, 2015, primarily due to the following:

· Higher net principal payments on our long-term debt primarily due to cash received of $10.5 million from the sale of our subsidiary, which was applied against our debt, partially offset by borrowings.

24

Debt and Credit Arrangements

For a discussion of our long-term debt, see Note 8, Debt, to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 to this Report incorporated herein by reference thereto.  See Note 7, Debt, to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 for more information about our long-term debt.

The descriptions of the Senior ABL Credit Facility and the Subordinated Term Loan Agreement (together, our “Credit Facilities”) do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the respective documents.

Financial Ratio Covenants

The terms and conditions of the Credit Facilities require us to comply with a number of financial and other covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios in certain situations and maintaining insurance coverage. These covenants may limit our flexibility in our operations, and breaches of these covenants could result in defaults under the instruments governing the applicable indebtedness even if we had satisfied our payment obligations.  If we were to default on the credit agreements or other debt instruments, our financial condition would be adversely affected.

Non-compliance by us with any of the covenants would constitute events of default under both of the Credit Facilities pursuant to cross-default provisions and could result in acceleration of payment obligations for all outstanding principal and interest for loans made under both of the Credit Facilities, unless such defaults were waived or subject to forbearance by the respective creditors.

Senior ABL Credit Facility Financial Ratios.  Our Senior ABL Credit Facility contains a financial ratio covenant, summarized as follows:

Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.  We may not permit the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as of the last day of any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, to be less than the greater of (i) 1.10 to 1.00 and (ii) the maximum fixed charge coverage ratio or equivalent ratio permitted under the Subordinated Loan Agreement.  The Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA minus the unfinanced portion of capital expenditures minus expense for taxes paid in cash; to (b) fixed charges, all calculated on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP.

The summary calculations of our Senior ABL Credit Facility Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of October 2, 2016 is as follows:

(in thousands, except ratio)	Amount
Consolidated EBITDA	$	12,087
Less unfinanced portion of capital expenditures		(2,364)
Less expense for taxes paid in cash		(200)
Coverage Amount (a)	$	9,523
Fixed Charges (b)	$	6,180
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (a:b)		1.54:1.00

25

Subordinated Loan Agreement Financial Ratios.  Our Subordinated Loan Agreement contains the following financial ratio covenants, summarized as follows:

Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.  We may not permit the Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter ending during any period set forth in the table below, to be less than the ratio set forth opposite such period in the table below.  The Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA minus the unfinanced portion of capital expenditures minus expense for taxes paid in cash (other than certain federal and state taxes excluded under the McLarty Second Amendment); to (b) fixed charges, all calculated on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP.

Period	Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
March 27, 2016 through September 24, 2016	1.00:1.00
September 25, 2016 through March 25, 2017	1.00:1.00
March 26, 2017 through September 23, 2017	1.05:1.00
September 24, 2017 through March 24, 2018	1.10:1.00
March 25, 2018 through September 29, 2018	1.15:1.00
September 30, 2018 and thereafter	1.20:1.00

The summary calculation of our Subordinated Loan Agreement Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of October 2, 2016 is as follows:

(in thousands, except ratio)	Amount
Consolidated EBITDA	$	12,087
Less unfinanced portion of capital expenditures		(2,364)
Less expense for taxes paid in cash		(200)
Coverage Amount (a)	$	9,523
Fixed Charges (b)	$	6,180
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (a:b)		1.54:1.00

Maximum Total Leverage Ratio.  We may not have a Total Leverage Ratio, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter ending during any period set forth in the table below, exceed the ratio set forth opposite such period in the table below.  The Total Leverage Ratio means the ratio of (a) our funded indebtedness as of such date, to (b) Consolidated EBITDA for the Test Period ended as of such date.

Period	Total Leverage Ratio
March 27, 2016 through September 24, 2016	5.50:1.00
September 25, 2016 through December 24, 2016	5.00:1.00
December 25, 2016 through March 25, 2017	4.50:1.00
March 26, 2017 through June 29, 2017	4.25:1.00
June 30, 2017 through September 23, 2017	4.00:1.00
September 24, 2017 and thereafter	3.50:1.00

The summary calculations of our Subordinated Loan Agreement Total Leverage Ratio as of October 2, 2016, is as follows:

(in thousands, except ratio)	Amount
Funded Indebtedness (a)	$	47,196
Consolidated EBITDA (b)	$	12,087
Maximum Total Leverage Ratio (a:b)		3.91:1.00

Compliance with Financial Ratio Covenants

As of October 2, 2016, we were in compliance with our debt covenants under our Senior ABL Credit Facility and our Subordinated Loan Agreement.

26

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation

Fixed Charges and Consolidated EBITDA used in our debt covenant calculations are non-GAAP financial measures.  We have provided this non-GAAP financial information to aid in better understanding of our financial ratios as used in our debt covenant calculation.  The methodology used is defined in our debt agreements.  Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.  The non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures, and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Fixed Charges consist of interest payments, principal payments on our debt, and capital lease payments for the prior four quarters.

Consolidated EBITDA used in our debt covenant calculations is based on the sum of the prior four quarter actual amounts.  The reconciliation of GAAP net income to Consolidated EBITDA to is as follows (in thousands):

For the twelve months ended:	October 2, 2016
Net income	$	1,842
Share-based compensation		489
Interest expense, net		4,418
Income taxes		724
Depreciation and amortization		9,519
Transaction related expenses (1)		1,311
Restructuring and severance expenses		563
Pro-forma EBITDA adjustment to exclude discontinued subsidiary		(6,779)
Consolidated EBITDA (2)	$	12,087

(1) Transaction related expenses relate to legal fees incurred to amend certain debt agreements, loss on extinguishment of debt, charges related to the sale of our non-core subsidiary and costs incurred to relocate a facility.

(2) Consolidated EBITDA excludes interest expense, net and income taxes because these items are associated with our capitalization and tax structures.  Consolidated EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization expense because these non-cash expenses reflect the impact of prior capital expenditure decisions which may not be indicative of future capital expenditure requirements.  Share-based compensation, transaction related costs, restructuring and severance expenses, and pro-forma EBITDA adjustment to exclude discontinued subsidiary are adjustments made in accordance with our bank debt covenants.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements that would have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows as of October 2, 2016.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported therein, including estimates about the effects of matters or future events that are inherently uncertain.  Policies determined to be critical are those that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and/or estimates.  For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, see Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation, in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Pursuant to permissive authority under Regulation S-K, Rule 305, we have omitted Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

27

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, and under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on this evaluation, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of October 2, 2016, at the reasonable assurance level due to weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

We previously reported material weaknesses that were identified as of June 30, 2016.  Our information technology and accounting infrastructure was inadequate, which could result in the failure to perform timely and effective reviews at a precision necessary to identify a material error. 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

To address the material weaknesses associated with our information technology and accounting infrastructure, remediation actions taken in fiscal year 2017 include:

· Upgrade to the latest version of the enterprise resource planning system used at AFT; and

· Strengthen the documentation of processes, procedures, and the review and approval of our financial activities at our smaller facilities.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, we implemented the following changes in our internal control over financial reporting to address the previously reported material weakness and to enhance our overall financial control environment:

· We sold Tekna Seal, which was one of our smaller facilities.  We are in the process of moving the accounting for GF&F to Kecy, which has a larger accounting staff with better segregation of duties.  We are improving the documentation of process and procedures at 3DMT and Thixoforming.  We have also enhanced our process to review and approve the financial records of ARC Wireless.

The audit committee directed management to implement remediation measures and is monitoring their implementation.  Certain remediation measures may extend into fiscal year 2018.  In addition, under the direction of the audit committee, management will continue to review and make necessary changes to the overall design of our internal control environment, as well as policies and procedures to improve the overall effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

Management believes the measures described above and other procedures that will be implemented will largely remediate the control deficiencies we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting.  However, the implementation of certain mitigating processes and procedures is dependent on certain factors, including, but not limited to, our financial performance.  Management is committed to continuous improvement of our internal control processes and will continue to evaluate and work to improve internal control over financial reporting.  

Except as described above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period ended October 2, 2016, that would have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our control over financial reporting.

26

timely manner any notice of any material claim that may be insured under any Company Insurance Policy and there are no outstanding material claims which have been denied or disputed by the insurer.    

3.22 Warranties and Products Liability.  No material claim against the Company is pending or, to the Knowledge of Sellers, threatened, for return, re-work or repair of products pursuant to any express or implied warranty with respect to its products in excess of the amount specifically reserved for such Liability in the Financial Information.  To the Knowledge of Sellers, no facts exist and no event has occurred that, in either case, forms the basis for any material claim against the Company for products liability, whether in tort or strict liability or on account of any express or implied warranty.

3.23 Affiliate Transactions.  Except (a) for standard confidentiality, assignment of invention and non-competition agreements or employment agreements and (b) as set forth in Section 3.23 of the Disclosure Schedule, neither any present officer, director or shareholder of the Company, or any other Person that, to the Knowledge of Sellers, is an Affiliate of any of the foregoing, is currently a party to any transaction or Contract with the Company.

27

Material Adverse Effect, or an increase in the price that any such supplier will charge for products or services sold to the Company that would have a Material Adverse Effect, or of the bankruptcy, liquidation, or change of control of any such customer or supplier.    Each product manufactured, sold, leased or delivered and each service provided by the Company has, to the Knowledge of Sellers, been in material conformity with all applicable Contracts of the Company and all express and implied warranties, if any, granted by the Company.

Section 5. Covenants of Both Parties

5.1 Confidentiality.

(a) After the Closing Date, each of the parties shall hold, and shall use its best efforts to cause its officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and agents, as applicable, to hold, in confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Applicable Law, all Confidential Information concerning each of the parties, and,

(b) After the Closing Date, each of the Sellers shall hold in confidence, unless required to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Applicable Law, all Confidential Information regarding the Company, except to the extent that such Confidential Information can be shown to have been (i) previously known on a non-confidential basis by one or more Sellers; (ii) in the public domain through no fault of Sellers or any other Person other than Purchaser; (iii) independently developed by one or more Sellers without reliance on such Confidential Information; or (iv) received from a third party without breach of any duty of confidentiality by such third party; provided,  that Parent, Sellers and the Company may disclose such Confidential Information to the Company’s officers, managers, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and agents, as applicable, in connection with (i) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement so long as such Persons are informed by Parent, Sellers or the Company of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and are directed by Parent, Sellers or the Company to treat such Confidential Information with due care in order to maintain such confidentially.

(c) In the event any party is required by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Applicable Law to disclose the Confidential Information, such party shall, before making such disclosure, give prompt notice thereof to each of the other parties and, to the extent reasonably practicable, provide such reasonable cooperation and assistance as each of the other parties may reasonably request (at such party’s expense) to obtain an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy.  In the event that no

30

such protective order or other remedy is obtained, such party shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which it is advised by counsel is legally required to be furnished.

(d) The obligation of each party to hold the Confidential Information shall be satisfied if it exercises the same care with respect to such Confidential Information as it would take to preserve the confidentiality of its own similar information, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care.

(e) The obligations of each party under this Section 5.1 shall continue indefinitely following the date of disclosure of the Confidential Information.

5.2 Public Announcements.  Neither Purchaser, on the one hand, nor any of the Parent or Sellers, on the other hand, shall issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided, however, that any party may issue a press release or make a public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby if required to do so by a Governmental Body or by Applicable Law.    

Section 6. Other Covenants.

6.1 Further Assurances.    At any time and from time to time after the Closing, Sellers and Purchaser shall, at the request of any of the other parties, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered, such instruments and other documents and perform or cause to be performed such acts and provide such information, as may reasonably be required to evidence or effectuate the Contemplated Transactions or for the performance by Sellers or Purchaser of any of their other respective obligations under this Agreement.

6.2 Access to Records After Closing.  From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser and Sellers and their respective Representatives shall have reasonable access to inspect and copy all books and records relating to the Company as of or before the Closing Date that the other parties hereto or their respective Representatives may retain after the Closing Date subject to the obligations of Confidentiality in Section 5.1.  The access of Sellers and their respective Representatives shall solely be for the purpose of responding to an audit by a Governmental Body or as necessary to respond to shareholder litigation. Such access shall be afforded by the party maintaining such records upon receipt of reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours.  Nothing contained in this Section 6.2 shall require Purchaser or the Company to retain any books or records longer than such books or records would otherwise have been retained in the Ordinary Course of Business but for the Contemplated Transactions; provided, however, that if the party maintaining such records shall desire to dispose of any of such books and records, such party shall, prior to such disposition, give the other party hereto a reasonable opportunity,

31

at such other party’s expense, to segregate and remove such books and records as such other party may select. 

6.3 Tax Matters. 

(a) Sellers shall be liable and shall indemnify Purchaser for all Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Company or the Interests relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (including, the portion of any Straddle Period for a Pre-Closing Tax Period) for which Sellers are liable, but only to the extent such Taxes exceed the amount, if any, reserved as a liability for the specific type of Tax for such indemnity right as shown on the Closing Balance Sheet and taken into account as a liability for the specific type of Tax for such indemnity right for purposes of the Actual Working Capital Amount.

(b) In the case of any Taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Taxes based upon or measured by income, receipts or payroll for the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be determined based upon an interim closing of the books as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that any Closing Date Tax Benefits will be treated as being allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date.  The amount of Taxes other than Taxes based upon or measured by income, receipts or payroll for a Straddle Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

(c) The Sellers and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that (i) as a result of Purchaser’s acquisition of the Interests as contemplated by this Agreement, the Company shall terminate as a partnership for U.S. federal Income Tax purposes pursuant to Code Section 708(b)(1)(B) and Purchaser’s acquisition of the Interests shall be treated by Purchaser as an acquisition of the Company's assets and by the Sellers as the sale of the Interests in accordance with IRS Revenue Ruling 99-6 (Situation #2) for U.S. federal and, unless required by applicable Tax law, any applicable state and local Income Tax purposes.  The Purchase Price will be allocated in accordance with Section 2.7. 

(d) Sellers shall, at their own expense, prepare or cause to be prepared drafts of all Pre-Closing Tax Period Income Tax Returns with original due dates (without extension) after the Closing Date.  Sellers shall deliver a draft of each such Pre-Closing Tax Period Income Tax Return to Purchaser not later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date (taking into account any extensions) of such Income Tax Return for Purchaser’s review and comment.  Purchaser shall provide any comments Purchaser may have to such draft Income Tax Returns within ten (10) days of its receipt of such Income Tax Return.  Sellers and Purchaser agree to consult and attempt to resolve in good faith any disputes they may have with respect to the contents of any such draft Income Tax Return.  If Purchaser does not object in writing to any draft Income Tax Return within such ten (10)

32

day period, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have agreed to such draft Income Tax Return and Sellers may file such Tax Return.  If Sellers and Purchaser are unable to resolve any objection(s) by either party to any Income Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period within five (5) calendar days prior to the due date of the applicable Income Tax Return, then Sellers shall file or cause to be filed such Income Tax Returns on the basis determined by Sellers and engage the Independent Accountant to make a final determination with respect to the item(s) to which the parties do not agree.  The Independent Accountant’s conclusions with respect to the item(s) shall be conclusive and, if applicable, Sellers shall amend the applicable Tax Return, modified for the items determined by the Independent Accountant that are not consistent with the Tax Return that was originally filed.  The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by the party whose Tax Return shows the largest discrepancy in Tax liability from the amount of Taxes due on the Tax Return as filed based on the Independent Accountant’s conclusions.

(e) Purchaser shall, at its expense, prepare or cause to be prepared drafts of (i) all Pre‑Closing Tax Period Tax Returns of the Company that are filed after the Closing Date other than Pre-Closing Tax Period Income Tax Returns prepared by Seller pursuant to paragraph (d) above, and (ii) all Straddle Period Tax Returns of the Company; provided, however, that such draft Pre‑Closing Tax Period Tax Returns and Straddle Period Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with Applicable Law.  At least ten (10) days prior to the due date (taking into account any extensions) of such Pre‑Closing Tax Period Tax Returns or Straddle Period Tax Returns prepared by Purchaser, Purchaser shall deliver such draft Tax Returns to Sellers for review and comment.  Sellers shall provide any comments Sellers may have to such draft Pre‑Closing Tax Period Tax Returns or Straddle Period Tax Returns, as applicable, within five (5) days of Sellers’ receipt of such draft Pre‑Closing Tax Period Tax Returns or Straddle Period Tax Returns, as applicable. If Sellers do not object in writing to any such draft Tax Return within such five (5) day period, then Sellers shall be deemed to have agreed to such draft Tax Return and Purchaser may file or cause to be filed such Tax Returns.  Sellers and Purchaser agree to consult and attempt to resolve in good faith any disputes they may have with respect to the contents of any such Tax Return.  If Sellers and Purchaser are unable to resolve any objection(s) by either party to any Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period within five (5) calendar days prior to the due date of the applicable Tax Return, then Purchaser shall file or cause to be filed such Tax Returns on the basis determined by Purchaser and engage the Independent Accountant to make a final determination with respect to the item(s) to which the parties do not agree.  The Independent Accountant’s conclusions with respect to the item(s) shall be conclusive and, if applicable, Purchaser shall amend the applicable Tax Return, modified for the items determined by the Independent Accountant that are not consistent with the Tax Return that was originally filed.  The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by the party whose Tax Return shows the largest discrepancy in Tax liability from the amount of Taxes due on the Tax Return as filed based on the Independent Accountant’s conclusions.

33

(f) Without the prior written consent of Sellers, neither Purchaser nor the Company shall amend any Tax Return of the Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (excluding Straddle Periods) or waive any limitations period with respect to such Tax Returns.

(g) Any Tax refunds that are received by the Company that are attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be for the account of Sellers, and the Company shall pay such Tax refund to Sellers as soon as practicable after actual receipt, but only to the extent that such refund was not taken into account as an asset shown on the Closing Balance Sheet and taken into account as an asset for purposes of the Actual Working Capital Amount. 

(h) Purchaser shall have the right to control any Tax audits, Tax disputes or administrative, judicial or other proceedings (“Tax Controversies”) with respect to the Company; provided, however, that in the case of any Tax Controversy that relates exclusively to any Taxes that could give rise to a liability of Sellers under this Agreement for Pre-Closing Tax Periods, Sellers may participate in such Tax Controversy at Sellers’ expense, and Purchaser shall not enter into any agreement that represents a final determination of the matter for any period for which Sellers have liability under this Agreement without Sellers’ consent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld.  Sellers shall execute, or cause to be executed, powers of attorney or other documents reasonably necessary to enable Purchaser to take all actions desired by Purchaser with respect to Tax Controversies.

(i) In the event Purchaser, the Company or any Affiliate of Purchaser or the Company receives any material document with respect to the Tax matters of the Company or the Interests that could cause the Sellers to be liable to Purchaser under this Agreement for Pre-Closing Tax Periods, or Sellers or any Affiliate of Sellers receives any material document with respect to the Tax matters of the Company or the Interests, the party receiving such document shall supply a copy of such document to the potentially affected party; provided that, a failure by a party to supply notice shall not affect the rights or obligations of such party.  For this purpose, such Tax documents shall include requests for information, notices of proposed adjustments, revenue agent’s reports or similar reports and notices of deficiency.  Any information provided or obtained under this Section 6.3(i) to Sellers shall be kept confidential by Sellers, except as may otherwise be necessary in connection with the filing of a Tax Return, refund claims, Tax audits, Tax claims or Tax Controversies or as required by Applicable Law.

(j) Purchaser and Sellers shall cooperate with the other party, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes.  Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide

34

additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.  Sellers and Purchaser agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or Sellers, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority.

(k) Purchaser and Sellers agree, upon written request of the other party, to use their reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Body or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby). 

(l) All transfer (including real estate transfer), documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be borne by Sellers, and the parties will cooperate to file or cause to be filed all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees if required by Applicable Law.

6.4 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance. 

(a) From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser agrees that it will not amend the Charter Documents of the Company in existence on the date hereof and listed in Section 6.4 of the Disclosure Schedule for a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date as those Charter Documents relate the provisions regarding elimination of liability of directors and managers, indemnification of officers, directors, managers and employees.  Quadrant will obtain as of the Closing Date a “run-off” or “tail” D&O insurance policy with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred on or prior to the Closing Date (including in connection with the Transactions).  Such policy will have a claims period of six (6) years from the Closing Date and will provide for at least the same coverage and amounts as the current policy of D&O liability insurance maintained for the Company immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(b) If Purchaser or any of its successors or assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then, and in each case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Purchaser shall assume the obligation not to amend the Charter Documents set forth in this Section 6.4.

6.5 Release.  Effective as of the Closing, each Seller hereby releases,  waives, and forever discharges the Company from any and all losses, damages, Liabilities,

35

obligations, assessments, Proceedings, claims or demands, judgments, penalties, Encumbrances, actions or causes of action, including costs, expenses and fees (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expert witness fees incurred in connection therewith) whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, contingent or absolute, both at law and in equity, which Seller or such Equityholder now has, has ever had or may hereafter have against the Company arising contemporaneously with or prior to the Closing Date or on account of or arising out of any matter, cause or event occurring contemporaneously with or prior to the Closing Date.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing contained in this Section 6.5 will operate to discharge, release or waive the obligations, covenants and agreements of Purchaser arising under this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements contemplated hereby.

Section 7. Indemnification and Related Matters.

7.1 Indemnification by Sellers. 

(a) After Closing and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 7 and elsewhere in this Agreement, Sellers shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser, the Company and their respective Affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from any Damages incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties arising out of, relating to or resulting from any of the following: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty of Sellers set forth in Section 3,1,  3.2,  3.3,  3.4,  3.5,  3.6, or 3.7 (the “Fundamental Representations”); (ii) any Closing Indebtedness, Change of Control Obligations, and Transaction Expenses of the Company not included in Sellers Closing Statement; and (iii) any breach of any covenant of Sellers or of any representation or warranty of Sellers set forth in Section 3.17 (the “Tax Representations”).  Any and all such indemnification by each Seller shall be proportionate with respect to each such Seller by reference to the percentage of Membership Interests as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto.

(b) The aggregate liability of Sellers under Section 7.1(a)(i) shall not exceed the Purchase Price.

(c) There shall be no indemnification obligations of Sellers under this Agreement other than as set forth in Section 7.1(a).

7.2 Indemnification by Purchaser.  After Closing and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 7 and elsewhere in this Agreement, Purchaser shall indemnify Sellers against any Damages that Sellers actually incurs as a direct result of (a) any breach by Purchaser of any representation or warranty of Purchaser set forth in Section 4; or (b) any breach of any covenant of Purchaser.

36

7.3 Expiration of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. 

(a) All of the representations and warranties of Sellers except the Fundamental Representations and the Tax Representations set forth in this Agreement shall terminate and expire, and shall cease to be of any force or effect at 10:00 a.m. (New York time) upon the last day of the Claim Period, and all Liability of Sellers and Purchaser with respect to such representations and warranties shall thereupon be extinguished.

(b) The Tax Representations shall terminate and expire 60 days after expiration of the applicable statute of limitations taking into account any tolling periods and other extensions.

(c) The representations and warranties in Sections 3.3, 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7 shall survive until the third anniversary of the Closing Date.

(d) The representations and warranties in Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.4 shall survive indefinitely.

(e) Covenants contemplating or involving actions to be taken, or obligations in effect, after Closing, will survive the Closing and will continue in full force and effect after the Closing in accordance with their terms. 

(f) If either party hereto delivers a Claim Notice based on a breach of or misrepresentation concerning a representation or warranty, then the applicable representation or warranty will survive until, but only for purposes of, the resolution of the matter covered by such notice.

7.4 Indemnification Claims.  If either party hereto (the “Claimant”) wishes to assert an indemnification claim against the other party hereto, the Claimant shall deliver to the other party a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) setting forth:

(a) the specific representation and warranty or covenant alleged to have been breached by such other party;

(b) a detailed description of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the alleged breach of such representation and warranty or covenant; and

(c) a detailed description of, and a reasonable estimate of the total amount of, the Damages actually incurred or expected to be incurred by the Claimant as a direct result of such alleged breach (such amount, the “Claimed Amount”).    

7.5 Defense of Third Party Actions.  If either party hereto (the “Indemnitee”) receives notice or otherwise obtains knowledge of any Matter or any threatened Matter that may give rise to an indemnification claim against the other party hereto (the “Indemnifying Party”), then the Indemnitee shall promptly deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice describing such Matter in reasonable detail; provided, however, that for the sole purpose of determining whether a Matter or threatened Matter may give rise to an

37

indemnification claim against Sellers within the meaning of this sentence, the limitations set forth in Section 7.1 shall not be taken into account.  The timely delivery of such written notice by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party shall be a condition precedent to any liability on the part of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 7 with respect to such Matter.  The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option, to assume the defense of any such Matter with its own counsel.  If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any such Matter, then:

(a) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay or otherwise indemnify the Indemnitee against any attorneys’ fees or other expenses incurred on behalf of the Indemnitee in connection with such Matter following the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense of such Matter;

(b) the Indemnitee shall make available to the Indemnifying Party all books, records and other documents and materials that are under the direct or indirect control of the Indemnitee or any of the Indemnitee’s Representatives and that the Indemnifying Party considers necessary or desirable for the defense of such Matter;

(c) the Indemnitee shall execute such documents and take such other actions as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request for the purpose of facilitating the defense of, or any settlement, compromise or adjustment relating to, such Matter;

(d) the Indemnitee shall otherwise fully cooperate as reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in the defense of such Matter;

(e) the Indemnitee shall not admit any Liability with respect to such Matter; and

(f) the Indemnifying Party shall have the exclusive right to settle, adjust or compromise such Matter, on such terms as it may deem appropriate, without the consent or approval of the Indemnitee or any other Person. 

If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of such Matter, then the Indemnitee shall proceed diligently to defend such Matter with the assistance of counsel satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party; provided,  however, that if the Indemnifying Party has agreed to accept Liability for the Matter, the Indemnitee shall not settle, adjust or compromise such Matter, or admit any Liability with respect to such Matter, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld).

7.6 Subrogation.  To the extent that either party hereto (the “Indemnitor”) makes or is required to make any indemnification payment to the other party hereto (the “Indemnified Party”), the Indemnitor shall be entitled to exercise, and shall be subrogated

38

to, any rights and remedies (including rights of indemnity, rights of contribution and other rights of recovery) that the Indemnified Party or any of the Indemnified Party’s Representatives may have against any other Person with respect to any Damages, circumstances or Matter to which such indemnification payment is directly or indirectly related.  The Indemnified Party shall permit the Indemnitor to use the name of the Indemnified Party and the names of the Indemnified Party’s Representatives in any transaction or in any Proceeding involving any of such rights or remedies; and the Indemnified Party shall take such actions as the Indemnitor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Indemnitor to perfect or exercise the Indemnitor’s right of subrogation hereunder.

7.7 Exclusivity.  The right of Sellers and Purchaser to assert indemnification claims and receive indemnification payments pursuant to this Section 7 shall be the sole and exclusive right and remedy exercisable by such party with respect to any breach by the other party hereto of any covenant, representation or warranty or otherwise under this Agreement or relating to the Contemplated Transactions except for Matters arising from fraud; and Sellers and Purchaser hereby waive and release any and all other tort claims and causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any tort claim or cause of action not based on fraud which is based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement). 

7.8 Characterization of Indemnification Payment. Any payment made pursuant to or in connection with this Section 7 shall be deemed to be an adjustment to the Purchase Price to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

Section 8. Miscellaneous Provisions.

8.1 Expenses.  Other than as specifically provided in this Agreement: (a) all Transaction Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Purchaser shall be borne and paid exclusively by Purchaser; and (b) all Transaction Expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Company or Sellers shall be borne and paid exclusively by the Company or Sellers at or before the Closing. 

8.2 Waiver.  Each of the parties hereto acknowledge and agree, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Representatives and Affiliates that the Company is the client of Wuersch & Gering LLP (“W&G”), that an attorney-client relationship exists between those parties, that Purchaser will not assume, acquire, or become a party to such relationship or any attorney-client privilege, and that after the Closing such privilege shall continue for the exclusive benefit of the Sellers.  After the Closing, it is possible that W&G will represent one or more Sellers (individually, or collectively, the “Securityholder Group”) in connection with any claims made pursuant to this Agreement.  Purchaser and the Company hereby agree that W&G (or any successor) may represent the Securityholder Group in the

39

future in connection with any claims that may be made thereunder pursuant to this Agreement.  W&G (or any successor) may serve as counsel to Securityholder Group in connection with any litigation, claim, or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions and each of the parties hereto hereby consents thereto and waives any conflict of interest arising therefrom and each of such parties shall cause any Affiliate thereof to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation.  Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that such consent and waiver is voluntary, has been carefully considered and the parties have consulted with counsel or been advised they should do so in this connection.

8.3 Disclosure Schedule.  Each section of the Disclosure Schedule qualifies the correspondingly numbered representation and warranty or covenant and any other representation or warranty, if the disclosure is reasonably apparent to such other representation or warranty.  The Disclosure Schedule is qualified in its entirety by reference to specific provisions of the Agreement, and is not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, any representation or warranty or covenant of Sellers, except as and to the extent expressly provided in the Agreement.  Inclusion of information in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that such information is material to Sellers or the Company or their respective assets, liabilities, financial condition, results, business and/or operations.  The fact that any item of information is contained in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed to mean that such information is required to be disclosed by the Agreement.  Such information shall not be used as a basis for interpreting the term “material,” “materially” or “materiality” in the Agreement.  References to any document in the Disclosure Schedule do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the document itself.  Capitalized terms used but not defined in the Disclosure Schedule shall have the same meanings given them in this Agreement.

8.4 Exclusivity of Agreement.  The parties hereto have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, liabilities, and obligations respecting the subject matter of this Agreement exclusively in contract pursuant to the express terms and provisions of the Transaction Agreements; and the parties hereto expressly disclaim that they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not expressly set forth in these Transaction Agreements.  Furthermore, the parties each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations; all parties to this Agreement specifically acknowledge that no party has any special relationship with another party that would justify any expectation beyond that of an ordinary acquirer and an ordinary target in an arm’s-length transaction.  The sole and exclusive remedies for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including any representations and warranties set forth herein) shall be those remedies available at law or in equity for breach of contract only (as such contractual remedies may be further limited or excluded pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement).

40

8.5 Inurement.  The Agreement inures to the benefit of and is binding upon the Parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns.  Except as provided in Section8.7 and this Section 8.5, no provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

8.6 Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and governed in all respects by, the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law).

8.7 Venue, Jurisdiction and Forum.  Without limiting the generality of any other provision herein (including Section 7.4), any legal action or other legal proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement may be brought or otherwise commenced in any state or federal court sitting in Borough of Manhattan, New York.  Each party to this Agreement:

(a) expressly and irrevocably consents and submits to the personal jurisdiction of each state and federal court sitting in Borough of Manhattan, New York (and each appellate court located in the State of New York) in connection with any such legal proceeding;

(b) agrees that each state and federal sitting in Borough of Manhattan, New York shall be deemed to be a convenient forum; and

(c) agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise), in any such legal proceeding commenced in any state or federal court sitting in Borough of Manhattan, New York, any claim that such party is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that such legal proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such court.

8.8 Time of the Essence.  Time is of the essence for this Agreement.

8.9 Notices.  All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly received (a) if given by electronic transmission (including e-mail), when transmitted and the electronic transmission confirmation is given by the recipient to the sender (as to which automated receipt notification shall not be deemed sufficient) if transmitted on a Business Day and during normal business hours of the recipient, and otherwise on the next Business Day following transmission, (b) if given by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, three Business Days after being deposited in the US mails, and (c) if given by courier or other means, when received or personally delivered, and addressed as follows

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

NOTE 1 – Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations

ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. (the “Company” or “ARC”) is a leading, global advanced manufacturer offering a full suite of products and services to its customers, including: (i) metal injection molding (“MIM”); (ii) 3D metal and plastic printing (also referred to as “Additive Manufacturing”); (iii) precision metal stamping; (iv) traditional and clean room plastic injection molding; and (v) advanced rapid and conformal tooling.  Through the Company’s diverse product offering, ARC provides its customers with a holistic prototyping and full-run production solution for both precision metal and plastic fabrication.  The Company further differentiates itself from its competitors by providing innovative, custom capabilities, which improve high-precision manufacturing efficiency and speed-to-market for its customers.

ARC’s mission is to accelerate the adoption of key technologies, such as automation, robotics, production software, and 3D printing, in traditional manufacturing, thereby benefiting from the elimination of inefficiencies currently present in the global supply chain.  Further, ARC seeks to create innovative ways to streamline and improve the overall manufacturing process, including offering instant online quoting, in-house rapid and advanced conformal tooling, and a full suite of prototype-to-production capabilities.

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s fiscal year begins July 1 and ends June 30, and the quarters for interim reporting consist of thirteen weeks; therefore, the quarter end will not always coincide with the date of the calendar month-end.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and results of operations.  Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year.  The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016, was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including notes required by GAAP.  As such, this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.  The Company follows the same accounting policies for preparing quarterly and annual reports.   

Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the amounts of ARC and its controlled subsidiaries.  All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2 – Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Due to the inherent uncertainties in making estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Non-Controlling Interests

In connection with the acquisitions of FloMet LLC and Tekna Seal LLC, the Company obtained a majority interest in the subsidiaries and control of the subsidiaries' boards of directors.   During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company purchased approximately 1.9% of the outstanding non-controlling membership interests of Tekna Seal LLC.  On September 30, 2016, the Company sold Tekna Seal LLC, which included 95.7% owned by the Company and 4.3% held by minority stakeholders (see Note 3, Discontinued Operations, for more information).  On October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, third party investors owned approximately 3.8% of the outstanding membership interests of FloMet LLC.  The Company has recognized the carrying value of the non-controlling interests as a component of stockholders’ equity for the applicable periods presented.

Comprehensive Income

For each of the quarters ended October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, there were no material differences between net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Period

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.  This update requires an entity to classify deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current within a classified statement of financial position.  ASU 2015-17 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2016, but early adoption is permitted.  This update may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented.  The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-17 on a prospective basis as of July 1, 2016; therefore, the prior period was not retrospectively adjusted.  The adoption of ASU 2015-17 did not have an impact on our consolidated results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs to ASC Topic 835, Interest - Imputation of Interest (“ASU 2015-03”).  ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset.  Amortization of debt issuance costs will continue to be reported as interest expense.  ASU 2015-03 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2015.

The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-03 on July 1, 2016, which required retroactive application and represented a change in accounting principle.  The deferred financing costs of approximately $1.3 million associated with a portion of our outstanding debt, which were previously included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016, are reflected as a reduction to the carrying liability of the Company’s outstanding debt.  As a result of this change in accounting principle, the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016 was adjusted as follows (in thousands):

	June 30, 2016
	Previously		Effect of Adoption of
	Reported		Accounting Principle		As Adjusted
Assets:
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	4,378	$	(429)	$	3,949

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”).  ASU 2016-15 clarifies and provides specific guidance on eight cash flow classification issues that are not currently addressed by GAAP and thereby reduce the diversity in practice.  ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted.  This guidance is applicable to the Company's fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018.  The Company does not anticipate that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases: Topic 842 (“ASU 2016-02”), to supersede nearly all existing lease guidance under GAAP.  ASU 2016-02 requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases currently classified as operating leases.  ASU 2016-02 also requires qualitative disclosures along with specific quantitative disclosures and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early application is permitted.  Entities are required to apply the amendments at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach.  The Company is evaluating the requirements of this guidance and has not yet determined the impact of the adoption on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 (“ASU 2014-09”), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP.  The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services.  ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing GAAP including 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.  In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which defers the effective date for one year beyond the originally specified effective date.  ASU 2014-09 is effective in the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2019 and may transition to the standard using either the full retrospective approach or retrospectively with a cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments recognized at the date of initial application.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 7 – Accrued Escrow Obligations

On April 7, 2014, the Company acquired the membership interests of Advance Tooling Concepts, LLC (“ATC”) for approximately $24.3 million, of which: (i) $21.9 million was paid in cash and (ii) $2.4 million, consisting of 233,788 newly issued shares of common stock of the Company, was to be held in escrow for a period of 12 months (“ATC Escrow”) to satisfy certain working capital adjustments and/or indemnification obligations.  In July 2014, the ATC Escrow was reduced by $0.7 million following the completion of a working capital adjustment.  In October 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to settle and terminate the ATC Escrow in cash.  The cash settlement has been accrued in current and long-term liabilities.  The ATC Escrow shares were returned to the Company and retired in February 2016.

On June 25, 2014, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Kecy Corporation and 411 Munson Holding, LLC for approximately $26.8 million, of which:  (i) $24.2 million was paid in cash; and (ii) $2.6 million, consisting of 172,450 newly issued shares of common stock of the Company, was to be held in escrow for a period of 18 months (“Kecy Escrow”) to satisfy certain working capital adjustments and/or indemnification obligations.  The Company has determined the common stock issued is mandatorily redeemable and has therefore recorded $2.6 million as a current liability in the accompanying balance sheets.  In August 2015, and in connection with the decline in the Company’s stock price since the date of acquisition, the Company issued 499,176 additional shares for security of the escrow.  The Company is in the process of finalizing the settlement of the Kecy Escrow.

New Senior Credit Agreement

On September 29, 2016, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, entered into a new senior asset-based lending credit agreement with Citizens Bank, N.A. (the “Senior ABL Credit Facility”).

The Senior ABL Credit Facility provides the Company with the following extensions of credit and loans: (1) a Revolving Commitment in the principal amount of $25.0 million (the “Revolving Loan”) and (2) a mortgage-based Term Loan Commitment in the principal amount of $17.5 million (the “Term Loan”).  The loans under the Senior ABL Credit Facility are secured by liens on substantially all domestic assets of the Company and guaranteed by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries who are not borrowers under the Senior ABL Credit Facility.

The aggregate amount of revolving loans permitted under the Senior ABL Credit Facility may not exceed a borrowing base consisting of: (i) the sum of 85% of certain eligible accounts receivable, plus (ii) the lesser of 65% of the value of certain eligible inventory and 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of certain eligible inventory, plus (iii) an amount not to exceed $4.2 million, which amount will be adjusted based on the face amount of certain letters of credit issued to Citizens Bank, N.A. in connection with certain operating leases and capitalized leases, minus (iv) reserves for any amounts which the lender deems necessary or appropriate.

Borrowings under the Senior ABL Credit Facility may be made as Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans.  The Base Rate loans will bear interest at the fluctuating rate per annum equal to (i) the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1/2 of 1.00%, (b) Citizens own prime rate; and (c) the adjusted Eurodollar rate on such day for an interest period of one (1) month plus 1.00%; and (ii) plus the Applicable Rate, as described below.  Eurodollar Rate Loans will bear interest at the rate per annum equal to (i) the ICE Benchmark Administration LIBOR Rate; plus (ii) the Applicable Rate.  The “Applicable Rate” will be (a) 2.50% with respect to Base Rate Loans that are Term Loans and 3.50% with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are Term Loans, and (b) 2.50% with respect to Base Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans and 3.50% with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans, in each case until December 31, 2016, and thereafter the Applicable Rate will be adjusted quarterly, responsive to the Company’s Quarterly Average Availability Percentage, ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% with respect to Base Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans and from 2.25% to 2.75% with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans.  In addition to interest payments on the Senior ABL Credit Facility loans, the Company will pay commitment fees to the lender of 0.375% per quarter on undrawn Revolving Loans.  The Company will also pay other customary fees and reimbursements of costs and disbursements to the lender.

The Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan is August 11, 2019, provided, however, upon repayment of Company subordinated indebtedness the maturity date will automatically extend to five years after the Closing Date for Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments, and with respect to the Term Loans, the earlier of the date that is (i) ten years after the Closing Date and (ii) the maturity date of the Revolving Loans.  The Senior ABL Credit Facility contains certain mandatory prepayment provisions, including mandatory prepayments due in respect of sales of assets, sales of equity securities, events of default and other customary events, with exceptions for non-core business dispositions.

The Senior ABL Credit Facility contains customary covenants and negative covenants regarding operation of the Company’s business, including maintenance of certain financial ratios, as well as restrictions on dispositions of Company assets.

In connection with the Senior ABL Credit Facility, the Company and the Borrowers together with certain subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”), have entered into an Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with Citizens Bank, N.A. dated as of September 29, 2016, which secures all of the loans and credits drawn from the Senior ABL Credit Facility by the Borrowers.  The security interests established under the Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement include senior secured liens on substantially all of the assets of the Guarantors.  The Guarantors have agreed to guarantee the unconditional payment and performance to the lender of all obligations of the Borrowers under the Senior ABL Credit Facility.

As of October 2, 2016, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants under the Senior ABL Credit Facility. 

Prior Amended & Restated Credit Agreement

On September 29, 2016, the Company refinanced all of the existing long-term debt obligations with Citizens Bank, N.A. into the Senior ABL Credit Facility described above.  The Company accounted for the refinancing as an extinguishment of debt and wrote off $0.7 million of previously deferred financing fees. 

Subordinated Term Loan Credit Agreement

On November 10, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a $20.0 million, five-year Subordinated Term Loan Credit Agreement (“Subordinated Loan Agreement”) with McLarty Capital Partners SBIC, L.P. (“McLarty”), which bears interest at 11% annually.  Upon an event of default under the Subordinated Loan Agreement, the interest rate increases automatically by 2.00% annually.  The proceeds were used to repay certain outstanding loans under the Company’s previous credit facility. McLarty is indirectly a related party to one of the officers and directors of the Company; therefore, the Board of Directors appointed a special committee consisting solely of independent directors to assure that the Subordinated Loan Agreement is fair and reasonable to the Company and its shareholders. 

On April 20, 2016, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Subordinated Loan Agreement (“McLarty Second Amendment”), as previously amended on December 29, 2014, to modify certain terms including: 

(1) Allows for the exclusion from the fixed charge coverage ratio $1.3 million of certain federal and state taxes paid related to prior years, effective March 27, 2016;

(2) Modifies the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and maximum total leverage ratio in line with the Company’s current financial expectations, effective March 27, 2016; and

(3) Establishes mandatory prepayments that will be required upon the completion of asset sales or sale-leaseback transactions, with the amount of the prepayments to be determined based upon achievement of certain leverage ratios.

The Subordinated Loan Agreement has been subordinated to the Senior ABL Credit Facility pursuant to a First Lien Subordination Agreement.  The Subordinated Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, affirmative covenants, negative covenants, and prepayment terms that are similar to those contained in the Senior ABL Credit Facility described above.   

As of October 2, 2016, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants under the Subordinated Credit Facility.

Loan Contract

On March 23, 2016, AFT-Hungary Kft. (“AFT Hungary”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Loan Contract with Erste Bank Hungary Zrt. in an amount equal to €4.0 million (“Loan Contract”).  The initial funding of €4.0 million drawn on the Loan Contract occurred on March 31, 2016.  Approximately $3.0 million of the net proceeds from the Loan Contract were used to partially repay obligations outstanding under the Amended & Restated Credit Agreement, with the remaining net proceeds to be used for capital expenditures and other investments to facilitate the export of goods and services provided by AFT Hungary.

The loan matures on March 7, 2021, and bears interest at a fixed rate of 0.98% per annum.  The Company is required to make semi-annual principal payments in an amount equal to approximately €400,000 along with monthly interest payments.  The Loan Contract is secured by certain of AFT Hungary’s assets, including the real estate and selected machinery and equipment located in Retsag, Hungary.

The balance of income taxes receivable was $0 and $1.6 million at October 2, 2016 and June 30, 2016, respectively.  The decrease in the income taxes receivable during the three months ended October 2, 2016, was primarily associated with the receipt of a federal income tax refund of approximately $0.9 million related to the carryback of the Company’s 2015 net operating loss.  The remaining income taxes receivable has been netted to reflect a current period taxes payable of $0.5 million due primarily to the gain on the sale of Tekna Seal.  The Company had unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions of $1.1 million and $1.0 million on October 2, 2016 and June 30, 2016, respectively, which are included in other long-term liabilities.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

NOTE 10 – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period.  Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the diluted weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during each period.  In connection with the acquisitions of ATC and Kecy, the Company issued a total of 905,414 shares of common stock, which were placed in escrow to satisfy certain working capital adjustments and/or indemnification obligations. As these escrow shares are expected to be returned to the Company, the escrow shares have been excluded from the basic and diluted earnings per share computations.  In February 2016, the 233,788 shares of common stock previously issued for the ATC acquisition were returned to the Company and retired. 

As a result of the Company’s net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended October 2, 2016, potentially dilutive stock options of approximately 134,927 were considered anti-dilutive and were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.  For the three months ended September 27, 2015, the Company had no outstanding equity awards or other potentially dilutive securities; therefore, there was no computation of dilutive securities.

In November 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”), which is administered by the Compensation Committee (“Committee”) of the Board of Directors.  The 2015 Plan reserves for issuance a total of 950,000 shares of common stock, which may be in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, or other types of awards as authorized under the plan.  As of October 2, 2016, there were 7,125 shares of common stock available to be granted under the 2015 Plan.  In the case of stock options, the exercise price of the stock options granted may not be less than the fair market value of a share of common stock at the date of grant.  The Committee determines the vesting conditions of awards; however, the performance period for an award subject to the satisfaction of performance measures may not exceed five years.  The 2015 Plan will terminate ten years after its adoption, unless terminated earlier by the Company’s Board of Directors.

A summary of stock option activity under the 2015 Plan as of October 2, 2016 is as follows:

		Weighted		Weighted Average
		Average Exercise		Remaining Contractual
	Shares	Price		Term (in years)
Outstanding as of June 30, 2016	759,050	$	1.51
Granted	190,950	$	2.50
Forfeited	(7,125)	$	1.51
Outstanding as of October 2, 2016	942,875	$	1.71	6.41
Vested and exercisable as of October 2, 2016	292,513	$	2.11	6.66
Vested and expected to vest as of October 2, 2016	840,437	$	1.73	6.42

Stock options granted during the three month period ending October 2, 2016 have contractual lives of seven years.  The weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the three months ended October 2, 2016 was $1.46 per share. The total fair value of shares vested during the three months ended October 2, 2016 was $0.5 million.

Determining Fair Value

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes method.  The assumptions used to determine the value of the Company’s stock options granted to employees during the three month period ended October 2, 2016 were as follows:

Expected term	3.50		-	4.75	years
Expected volatility	78.8	%	-	85.0	%
Expected dividend yield	-	%
Risk-free interest rate	1.02	%	-	1.19	%

Expected Term – The expected term represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding.  The Company uses the simplified method, as permitted by the SEC, to calculate the expected term, as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected life in years. The simplified method is calculated as the average of the time-to-vesting and the contractual life of the options.

Expected Volatility – Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, which we believe will be indicative of future experience. 

Expected Dividends – The Company has never paid dividends on its common stock and currently does not intend to do so in the near term, and accordingly, the dividend yield percentage is zero.

Risk-Free Interest Rate - The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant with a term equal to the expected term of the stock option granted.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

Compensation expense recognized during the three month period ended October 2, 2016 was $0.3 million, and is included in selling, general and administrative expense.  As of October 2, 2016, there was $0.4 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.3 years.  The Company estimated expected forfeitures and is recognizing compensation expense only for those option grants expected to vest.  The Company’s estimate of forfeitures may be adjusted throughout the requisite service period based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are likely to differ, from the Company’s previous estimates.  At the end of the service period compensation cost will have been recognized only for those awards for which the employee has provided the requisite service.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Under the terms of the Company’s employee stock purchase plan ("ESPP"), eligible employees may authorize payroll deductions up to 5% of their base pay to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the closing price at the beginning or end of each six-month purchase period.  A total of 750,000 shares were authorized under the ESPP.  The purchase period began on August 1, 2016; therefore, no shares have been purchased under the Company’s ESPP as of October 2, 2016.

Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s fiscal year begins July 1 and ends June 30, and the quarters for interim reporting consist of thirteen weeks; therefore, the quarter end will not always coincide with the date of the calendar month-end.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and results of operations.  Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year.  The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016, was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including notes required by GAAP.  As such, this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.  The Company follows the same accounting policies for preparing quarterly and annual reports.    

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the amounts of ARC and its controlled subsidiaries.  All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.    

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Due to the inherent uncertainties in making estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Non-Controlling Interest

Non-Controlling Interests

In connection with the acquisitions of FloMet LLC and Tekna Seal LLC, the Company obtained a majority interest in the subsidiaries and control of the subsidiaries' boards of directors.   During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company purchased approximately 1.9% of the outstanding non-controlling membership interests of Tekna Seal LLC.  On September 30, 2016, the Company sold Tekna Seal LLC, which included 95.7% owned by the Company and 4.3% held by minority stakeholders (see Note 3, Discontinued Operations, for more information).  On October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, third party investors owned approximately 3.8% of the outstanding membership interests of FloMet LLC.  The Company has recognized the carrying value of the non-controlling interests as a component of stockholders’ equity for the applicable periods presented.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive Income

For each of the quarters ended October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, there were no material differences between net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Period and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Period

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.  This update requires an entity to classify deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current within a classified statement of financial position.  ASU 2015-17 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2016, but early adoption is permitted.  This update may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented.  The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-17 on a prospective basis as of July 1, 2016; therefore, the prior period was not retrospectively adjusted.  The adoption of ASU 2015-17 did not have an impact on our consolidated results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs to ASC Topic 835, Interest - Imputation of Interest (“ASU 2015-03”).  ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset.  Amortization of debt issuance costs will continue to be reported as interest expense.  ASU 2015-03 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2015.

The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-03 on July 1, 2016, which required retroactive application and represented a change in accounting principle.  The deferred financing costs of approximately $1.3 million associated with a portion of our outstanding debt, which were previously included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016, are reflected as a reduction to the carrying liability of the Company’s outstanding debt.  As a result of this change in accounting principle, the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016 was adjusted as follows (in thousands):

	June 30, 2016
	Previously		Effect of Adoption of
	Reported		Accounting Principle		As Adjusted
Assets:
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	4,378	$	(429)	$	3,949
Other assets	$	948	$	(920)	$	28
Total assets	$	121,798	$	(1,349)	$	120,449
Liabilities:
Bank borrowings, current portion of long-term debt	$	15,909	$	(261)	$	15,648
Long-term debt, net of current portion	$	37,857	$	(1,088)	$	36,769
Total liabilities	$	77,255	$	(1,349)	$	75,906

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”).  ASU 2016-15 clarifies and provides specific guidance on eight cash flow classification issues that are not currently addressed by GAAP and thereby reduce the diversity in practice.  ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted.  This guidance is applicable to the Company's fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018.  The Company does not anticipate that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases: Topic 842 (“ASU 2016-02”), to supersede nearly all existing lease guidance under GAAP.  ASU 2016-02 requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases currently classified as operating leases.  ASU 2016-02 also requires qualitative disclosures along with specific quantitative disclosures and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early application is permitted.  Entities are required to apply the amendments at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach.  The Company is evaluating the requirements of this guidance and has not yet determined the impact of the adoption on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 (“ASU 2014-09”), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP.  The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services.  ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing GAAP including 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.  In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which defers the effective date for one year beyond the originally specified effective date.  ASU 2014-09 is effective in the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2019 and may transition to the standard using either the full retrospective approach or retrospectively with a cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments recognized at the date of initial application.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.
