Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. The Company

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. (“Alpha Pro Tech,” the “Company,” “we”, “us” or “our”) is in the business of protecting people, products and environments. The Company accomplishes this by developing, manufacturing and marketing a line of building supply products for the new home and re-roofing markets and a line of disposable protective apparel for the cleanroom, industrial, pharmaceutical, medical and dental markets.

The Building Supply segment consists of construction weatherization products, such as housewrap, housewrap accessories, namely tape and flashing, and synthetic roof underlayment, as well as other woven material.

The Disposable Protective Apparel segment consists of a complete line of disposable protective garments (shoecovers, bouffant caps, coveralls, gowns, frocks and lab coats), face masks and face shields. All of our disposable protective apparel products, including face masks and face shields, are sold through similar distribution channels, are single-use and disposable, have the purpose of protecting people, products and environments, and have to be produced in Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved facilities, regardless of the market served.

The Company’s products are sold under the "Alpha Pro Tech" brand name as well as under private label and are predominantly sold in the United States of America (“U.S.”).

2. Basis of Presentation and Revenue Recognition Policy

The interim financial information included in this report is unaudited; however, the information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods reflected herein. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, omit certain information and note disclosures that would be necessary to present the statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s current year SEC filings, as well as the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”), filed with the SEC on March 16, 2023. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 was prepared using information from the audited consolidated balance sheet contained in the 2022 Form 10-K; however, it does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements.

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Net sales include revenue from products and shipping and handling charges, net of estimates for product returns and any related sales incentives. Our customer contracts have a single performance obligation: transfer control of products to customers. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for transferring control of products. All revenue is recognized when we satisfy our performance obligations under the applicable contract. We recognize revenue in connection with transferring control of the promised products to the customer, with revenue being recognized at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the products, which is generally when title passes to the customer upon delivery to a third party carrier for FOB shipping point arrangements and to the customer for FOB destination arrangements, at which time a receivable is created for the invoice sent to the customer. Shipping and handling activities are performed prior to the customer obtaining control of the goods and are accounted for as fulfillment activities and are not a promised good or service. Shipping and handling charges billed to customers are included in revenue. Shipping and handling costs, associated with the distribution of the Company’s product to the customers, are recorded in cost of goods sold and are recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which is generally when title passes to the customer upon delivery to a third party carrier for FOB shipping point arrangements and to the customer for FOB destination arrangements. We estimate product returns based on historical return rates and estimate rebates based on contractual agreements. Using probability assessments, we estimate sales incentives expected to be paid over the term of the contract. Sales taxes and value added taxes in foreign and domestic jurisdictions that are collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and, therefore, are excluded from net sales. The Company manufactures certain private label goods for customers and has determined that control does not pass to the customer at the time of manufacture, based upon the nature of the private labeling. The Company has determined as of June 30, 2023 that it had no material contract assets and concluded that its contract liabilities (primarily rebates) had the right of offset against customer receivables. See Note 10 and Note 11 of these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for information on revenue disaggregated by type and by geographic region.

3. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company previously granted stock options to employees and non-employee directors under a stock option plan (the “2004 Option Plan”). Stock options have been granted with exercise prices at or above the fair market value of the underlying shares of common stock on the date of grant. Options vest and expire according to terms established at the grant date. The 2004 Option Plan provided for a total of 5,000,000 common shares eligible for issuance. Under the 2004 Option Plan, approximately 5,009,750 options (taking into account cancelled and expired options that were added back to the plan reserve) had been granted as of December 31, 2020.

At the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Company’s shareholders approved the Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Incentive Plan”). The 2020 Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units, performance share awards, cash awards and other equity-based awards to employees (including officers), consultants and non-employee directors of the Company and its affiliates. A total of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2020 Incentive Plan, plus the number of shares underlying any award granted under the 2004 Option Plan that expires, terminates or is cancelled or forfeited under the terms of the 2004 Option Plan. As a result of the approval of the 2020 Incentive Plan, no future equity awards will be made pursuant to the 2004 Option Plan. Although no new awards may be granted under the 2004 Option Plan, all previously granted awards under the 2004 Option Plan will continue to be governed by the terms of the 2004 Option Plan.

The Company records compensation expense for the fair value of stock-based awards determined as of the grant date, including employee stock options and restricted stock awards, over the determined requisite service period, which is generally ratably over the vesting term.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, no stock options or restricted stock awards were granted under the 2020 Incentive Plan. The Company recognized $7,000 and $87,000 in stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to outstanding options previously granted under the 2004 Option Plan. The Company recognized $37,000 and $54,000 in compensation expense associated with outstanding restricted stock awards for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, $26,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding restricted stock awards was expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remainder period of 0.38 years.

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the options. The Company uses historical data to estimate the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of an award is based on the US Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The estimated volatility is based on historical volatility and management’s expectations of future volatility. The Company uses an estimated dividend payout of zero, as the Company has not paid dividends in the past and, at this time, does not expect to do so in the future. The Company accounts for option forfeitures as they occur. The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023:

			Weighted Average
			Exercise Price
	Options		Per Option
Options outstanding, December 31, 2022		410,615	$	3.50
Granted to employees and non-employee directors		-		-
Exercised		124,250		3.25
Canceled/expired/forfeited		8,333		3.62
Options outstanding, June 30, 2023		278,032		3.61
Options exercisable, June 30, 2023		263,332		3.58

As of June 30, 2023, $30,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options was expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 4.23 years.

4. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued. Management has not identified any new standards that it believes merit further discussion at this time.

5. Inventories

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, inventories net of reserves consisted of the following:

	June 30,		December 31,
	2023		2022

6. Equity Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate

In 2005, Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. (a subsidiary of Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.) entered into a joint venture with a manufacturer in India, Maple Industries and associates, for the production of building products. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, a private company, Harmony Plastics Private Limited (“Harmony”), was created with ownership interests of 41.66% owned by Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. and 58.34% owned by Maple Industries and associates.

This joint venture positions Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. to respond to current and expected increased product demand for housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment and provides future capacity for sales of specialty roofing component products and custom products for industrial applications requiring high quality extrusion coated fabrics. In addition, the joint venture now supplies products for the Company’s Disposable Protective Apparel segment.

The capital from the initial funding and a bank loan, which is guaranteed exclusively by the individual shareholders of Maple Industries and associates and collateralized by the assets of Harmony, were utilized to purchase the original manufacturing facility in India. Harmony currently has four facilities in India (three owned and one rented), consisting of: (1) a 139,000 square foot building for manufacturing building products; (2) a 121,000 square foot building for manufacturing coated material and sewing proprietary disposable protective apparel; (3) a 23,000 square foot facility for sewing proprietary disposable protective apparel; and (4) a 159,000 square foot facility (rented) for manufacturing Building Supply segment products. All additions have been financed by Harmony with no guarantees from the Company.

In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, the Company assesses whether or not related entities are variable interest entities (“VIEs”). For those related entities that qualify as VIEs, ASC 810 requires the Company to determine whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and, if so, to consolidate the VIE. The Company has determined that Harmony is not a VIE and is, therefore, considered to be an unconsolidated affiliate.

The Company records its investment in Harmony as “equity investment in unconsolidated affiliate” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company records its equity interest in Harmony’s results of operations as “equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate” in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The Company periodically reviews its investment in Harmony for impairment. Management has determined that no impairment was required as of June 30, 2023, or December 31, 2022. Under the equity method, since the Company’s reporting currency is different from of Harmony’s reporting currency, the Company is required to translate our proportionate share of equity for effects of translations in foreign currency and adjust the investment accordingly and accrue the adjustment as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”).

For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company purchased $4,834,000 and $5,676,000 of inventories, respectively, from Harmony. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company purchased $9,870,000 and $11,859,000 of inventories, respectively, from Harmony. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company sold $200,000 and $0 of inventories, respectively, to Harmony. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company sold $200,000 and $258,000 of inventories, respectively, to Harmony. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $103,000 and $50,000, respectively, related to Harmony. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $212,000 and $99,000, respectively, related to Harmony.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s investment in Harmony was $5,089,000, which consisted of its original $1,450,000 investment and cumulative equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $5,987,000, less $942,000 in repayments of an advance, $77,000 in payments of dividends, and $1,331,000 in AOCL on foreign currency translations.

9. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”), a component of shareholders' equity, consists of foreign currency translation adjustments related to foreign currency gains or losses on our unconsolidated affiliate as its functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar. The resulting foreign currency translation gains or losses are deferred as AOCL and reclassified to earnings only upon sale or liquidation of that business. The accumulated other comprehensive loss on equity in unconsolidated affiliate was $1,331,000 and $1,489,000 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

10. Activity of Business Segments

The Company operates through two business segments:

(1) Building Supply: consisting of a line of construction supply weatherization products. The construction supply weatherization products consist of housewrap and housewrap accessories including window and door flashing and seam tape, and synthetic roof underlayment, as well as other woven material. The majority of the Company’s equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate (Harmony) is included in the total segment income for the Building Supply segment.

(2) Disposable Protective Apparel: consisting of a complete line of disposable protective garments, including shoecovers (including the Aqua Trak® and spunbond shoecovers), bouffant caps, coveralls, frocks, lab coats, gowns and hoods, as well as face masks and face shields for the pharmaceutical, cleanroom, industrial, medical and dental markets. A portion of the Company’s equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate (Harmony) is included in the total segment income for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment.

Segment data excludes charges allocated to the principal executive office and other unallocated corporate overhead expenses and income tax. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based primarily on net sales.

14. Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred income tax assets unless it is more likely than not that such assets will be realized. The Company’s policy is to record any interest and penalties assessed by the Internal Revenue Service as a component of the provision for income taxes. The Company provides allowances for uncertain income tax positions when it is more likely than not that the position will not be sustained upon examination by the tax authority.

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and in various state and foreign jurisdictions.

An employer generally does not claim a corporate income tax deduction (which would be in an amount equal to the amount of income recognized by the employee) upon the exercise of its employee's incentive stock options (“ISOs”) unless the employee does not meet the holding period requirements and sells early, making a disqualifying disposition, or if the options otherwise do not qualify as ISOs under applicable tax laws. With non-qualified stock options (“NQSOs”), on the other hand, the employer is typically eligible to claim a deduction upon its employee's exercise of the NQSOs.

15. Contingencies

On June 7, 2022, the Company filed a lawsuit (the “Lawsuit”) in Utah naming as defendants the vendors from which the Company ordered equipment for its facility in Utah (collectively the “Defendants”). The Lawsuit relates to certain equipment ordered from Defendants and paid for by the Company, which Defendants never delivered. In the Lawsuit the Company is seeking the following relief: compensatory damages in the amount $490,000, representing the money the Company paid for the machines it never received, lost profits in the form of mask sales it could have made if Defendants had delivered the machines on the promised date, and other monetary and equitable relief. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has written off the $490,000 balance of the deposit paid for the equipment, pending any recovery in the Lawsuit. As of the date hereof, no counterclaims have been asserted against the Company. The Company believes there would not be any meritorious claims against the Company in the Lawsuit. The Lawsuit has not been resolved and the final outcome, including the potential amount of any recovery for the Company’s claims, is uncertain. Any potential recovery represents a gain contingency in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, that has not been recorded as the matter was not resolved as of June 30, 2023. Any recovery will be recorded when received.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenues or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, plans or intentions, including, without limitation, our expected orders, production levels and sales in 2023 and 2024, and other information that is not historical information. When used in this report, the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes” and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We may make additional forward-looking statements from time to time. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. All forward-looking statements, whether written or oral and whether made by us or on our behalf, are expressly qualified by this special note.

The following are some of the risks that could affect our financial performance or that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements:

● We are exposed to foreign currency exchange risks related to our unconsolidated affiliate operations in India.

● Failure to remediate the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting could result in us being unable to accurately and timely report our financial results or comply with the requirements of being a public company, which would adversely affect us.

● We are subject to risks associated with our joint venture.

● The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including effects on the business and operations of those within our supply chain and on global economic conditions generally, which have had, and could continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business, financial results and results of operations.

● The loss of any large customer or a reduction in orders from any large customer could reduce our net sales and harm our operating results.

● We rely on suppliers and contractors, and our business could be seriously harmed if these suppliers and contractors are not able to meet our requirements.

● Risks associated with international manufacturing could have a significant effect on our business.

● Our success depends in part on protection of our intellectual property, and our failure to protect our intellectual property could adversely affect our competitive advantage, our brand recognition and our business.

● Our industry is highly competitive, which may negatively affect our ability to grow our customer base and generate sales.

● The Company’s results are affected by competitive conditions and customer preferences.

● The Company’s growth objectives are largely dependent on the timing and market acceptance of our new product offerings, including our ability to continually renew our pipeline of new products and to bring those products to market.

● Global economic conditions could adversely affect the Company’s business and financial results.

● We are subject to risks related to climate change and natural disasters or other events beyond our control.

● Security breaches and other disruptions to the Company’s information technology infrastructure could interfere with the Company’s operations, compromise information belonging to the Company and our customers and suppliers and expose the Company to liability, which could adversely impact the Company’s business and reputation.

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.

● The Company’s future results may be affected by various legal and regulatory proceedings and legal compliance risks.

● Our common stock price is volatile, which could result in substantial losses for individual shareholders.

The foregoing list of risks is not exclusive. For a more detailed discussion of the risk factors associated with our business, see the risks described in Part I, Item IA, “Risk Factors,” in the 2022 Form 10-K. These and many other factors could affect the Company’s future operating results and financial condition and could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations based on forward-looking statements made in this document or elsewhere by the Company or on its behalf.

Special Note Regarding Smaller Reporting Company Status

We are filing this report as a “smaller reporting company” (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). As a result of being a smaller reporting company, we are allowed and have elected to omit certain information from this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; however, we have provided all information for the periods presented that we believe to be appropriate.

Where to find more information about us. We make available, free of charge, on our website (http://www.alphaprotech.com) our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, any Current Reports on Form 8-K furnished or filed since our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and any amendments to such reports, as soon as reasonably practicable following the electronic filing of such reports with the SEC. In addition, in accordance with SEC rules, we provide paper copies of our filings free of charge upon request.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the periods reported. We base estimates on past experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The application of these accounting policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide timely and reliable financial information. Our significant accounting policies and estimates are more fully described in Note 3 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of the 2022 Form 10-K. Since December 31, 2022, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as described in the 2022 Form 10-K.

Three and Six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to Three and Six months ended June 30, 2022

Sales. Consolidated sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $16,115,000, from $17,373,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, representing a decrease of $1,258,000, or 7.2%. This decrease consisted of decreased sales in both the Building Supply segment of $280,000 and the Disposable Protective Apparel segment of $978,000.

Building Supply segment sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $280,000, or 2.6%, to $10,537,000, compared to $10,817,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The Building Supply segment had a record sales quarter in our core building products (house wrap and synthetic roof underlayment, excluding other woven material), including an increase in sales of housewrap of 17.6% and an increase in sales of synthetic roof underlayment of 0.9%, for an overall increase of 8.6%. Sales of other woven material decreased by 45.5% compared to the same period of 2022. The sales mix of the Building Supply segment for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was approximately 40% for synthetic roof underlayment, 50% for housewrap and 10% for other woven material. That is compared to approximately 40% for synthetic roof underlayment, 42% for housewrap and 18% for other woven material for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. Our synthetic roof underlayment product line primarily includes REX SynFelt®, REX TECHNOply® and TECHNO SB®, and our housewrap product line primarily consists of REX Wrap®, REX Wrap Plus® and REX™ Wrap Fortis. Housewrap accessories consist of REXTREME Window and Door Flashing and REX™ Premium Seam Tape.

The housewrap market continues to be soft, due to a continued decrease in demand for new home starts as a result of interest rate hikes and economic uncertainty. In the second quarter of 2023, single family housing starts in the United States decreased by 14.5% compared to the same period a year ago. Our sales of housewrap and accessories, which increased by 17.6% in the second quarter of 2023 over the prior-year quarter, continue to significantly outperform the market through market diversification, product development and sales team expansion. Sales of our REX Wrap® and REX Wrap Plus®, our entry-level housewrap products, were up 11.6% over the prior-year quarter, despite the major decrease in housing starts, as we have continued to form relationships with additional dealers across the country. Management is encouraged by our growth opportunities with REX™ Wrap Fortis, our premium housewrap line, as we continue to make inroads into the multi-family and commercial construction sector, evidenced by an increase of 18.9% in sales in the second quarter of 2023. We also experienced a 195% increase in sales of housewrap accessories, REXTREME Window and Door Flashing and REX™ Premium Seam Tape, in the second quarter of 2023 over the prior-year quarter. Based on the number of jobs we are specified on and the potential for additional bids taking place, management expects that we will continue to see positive trends relative to the industry for both our entry level and premium housewrap product lines.

The synthetic roof underlayment market has also been significantly affected by the continued decrease in new home starts, as well as a push in the market to reduce product selling prices. Despite these pressures, synthetic roof underlayment sales also outperformed the market and were up 0.9% in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022. Management is encouraged by the trend in synthetic roof underlayment of it outperforming the market, especially as we should see an increase in sales as inventory is alleviated at the dealer and distribution level. In addition, we will be launching a new line of self-adhered roofing products in late 2023, which we expect will bring additional revenue to our synthetic roof underlayment line of products.

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.

Other woven material sales decreased in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 by 45.5% due to decreased sales to our major customer, product overstocks and the aforementioned economic slowdown. We do not expect other woven material to be a growth driver in 2023, but these products only represent approximately 10% of the Building Supply segment sales.

Recent capital investments in our Building Supply segment are expected to increase production capacity, allowing us to react to spikes in new construction and multi-family housing starts more quickly than some competitors with multiple month lead-times due to overseas production and shipping. Continued growth in the Building Supply segment is expected through the market’s reception of our best-in-class warranties.  These include the highest and strongest coverages available in synthetic roof underlayment and full system warranties that apply to single-family, commercial and multi-family properties on our weather resistive barriers.

Sales for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $978,000, or 14.9%, to $5,578,000, compared to $6,556,000 for the same period of 2022. This segment experienced an increase of 7.6% in sales of disposable protective garments, offset by a 71.6% decrease in sales of face masks and an 84.4% decrease in sales of face shields.

The sales mix of the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was approximately 93% for disposable protective garments, 5% for face masks and 2% for face shields. This sales mix is compared to approximately 74% for disposable protective garments, 14% for face masks and 12% for face shields for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Sales of disposable protective garments in the second quarter of 2023 were up 7.6% as our channel partners and our end customers are working through their inventory and their ordering patterns return to normal. In addition, our sales have been positively affected as we can now meet face-to-face with our distribution partners and end-customers, something we have not been able to do since 2020. Face mask and face shield sales are still suffering from the COVID-19 residual excess inventories at the distributor level. Comparatively, sales of face masks and face shields were higher than normal during the second quarter of 2022 due to the ongoing demand for COVID-19 products.

Consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $29,914,000 from $35,034,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, representing a decrease of $5,120,000, or 14.6%. This decrease consisted of decreased sales in the Building Supply segment of $1,887,000 and decreased sales in the Disposable Protective Apparel Segment of $3,233,000.

Building Supply segment sales for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $1,887,000, or 9.0%, to $19,167,000, compared to $21,054,000 for the same period of 2022. Sales of our core building products were down 4.5% since December 31, 2022, as an increase in sales of housewrap of 6.0% over the prior-year period was more than offset by a decrease in sales of synthetic roof underlayment of 15.0%. This increase in sales of housewrap was despite a 21.1% decrease in single family housing starts compared to the same period a year ago. Sales of other woven material decreased by 29.8% compared to the same period of 2022.

The sales mix of the Building Supply segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was 41% for synthetic roof underlayment, 48% for housewrap and 11% for other woven material. This compared to 44% for synthetic roof underlayment, 41% for housewrap and 15% for other woven material for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Sales for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $3,233,000, or 23.1%, to $10,747,000, compared to $13,980,000 for the same period of 2022. This segment decrease was due to an 8.9% increase in sales of disposable protective garments, that was more than offset by a 74.2% decrease in sales of face masks, and an 82.4% decrease in sales of face shields.

Sales of disposable protective garments for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were up 8.9% for the reasons as discussed above in the three months ended June 30, 2023 section. Face mask and face shield sales continue to be affected by excess inventories at the distributor level and in the marketplace.

The sales mix of the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was 89% for disposable protective garments, 8% for face masks and 3% for face shields. This sales mix is compared to 63% for disposable protective garments, 23% for face masks and 14% for face shields for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by $494,000, or 8.8%, to $6,106,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, from $5,612,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The gross profit margin was 37.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to 32.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Gross profit decreased by $966,000, or 8.0%, to $11,088,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, from $12,054,000 for the same period of 2022. The gross profit margin was 37.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 34.4% for the same period of 2022.

The gross profit margin in 2023 has been positively affected by ocean freight rates which have come down since the latter part of 2022. Management expects the gross profit margin to be in a similar range throughout the balance of 2023, although the sales mix could affect gross margin.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $510,000, or 12.5%, to $4,575,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, from $4,065,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 28.4% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, from 23.4% for the same period of 2022.

The change in expenses by segment for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was as follows: Disposable Protective Apparel expenses were down $79,000, or 6.2%; Building Supply expenses were up $412,000, or 26.3%; and corporate unallocated expenses were up $177,000, or 14.4%. The decrease in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment expenses was primarily related to decreased employee compensation, marketing and general factory expenses, partially offset by increased commission expenses. The increase in the Building Supply segment expenses was primarily related to increased employee compensation, insurance, travel expenses, marketing, commission and general factory expenses. The increase in corporate unallocated expenses was primarily due to employee compensation and professional fees.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $517,000, or 6.2%, to $8,888,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, from $8,371,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

The decrease in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment expenses was primarily related to decreased employee compensation, partially offset by increased marketing expenses. The increase in the Building Supply segment expenses was related to increased employee compensation, marketing, travel, insurance and general factory expenses, partially offset by decreased commission expense. The decrease in corporate unallocated expenses was primarily due to decreased accrued bonuses, stock option and restricted stock expenses, rent expense and insurance, partially offset by increased professional fees.

In addition, there was a loss on fixed assets of $490,000 during the same period of 2022 due to equipment for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment that was not delivered.

Income before provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2,277,000, compared to income before provision for income taxes of $2,864,000 for the same period of 2022, representing a decrease of $587,000, or 20.5%. This decrease in income before provision for income taxes was due to a decrease in income from operations of $1,506,000, partially offset by an increase in other income of $919,000.

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was $438,000, compared to $197,000 for the same period of 2022.

Net income as a percentage of net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was 7.1%, and net income as a percentage of net sales for the same period of 2022 was 4.0%.

The decrease in cash from December 31, 2022, was due to cash used in investing activities of $390,000 and cash used in financing activities of $1,538,000 partially offset by cash provided by operating activities of $987,000.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $987,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was due to net income of $1,698,000, as adjusted primarily by the following: stock-based compensation expense of $44,000, depreciation and amortization expense of $462,000, equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $212,000, operating lease expense net of accretion of $461,000, an increase in accounts receivable of $3,213,000, a decrease in accounts receivable related party of $665,000, an increase in prepaid expenses of $519,000, a decrease in inventory of $2,426,000, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $360,000, and a decrease in lease liabilities of $465,000, all compared to December 31, 2022.

Net cash used in investing activities was $390,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $222,000 for the same period of 2022.

We retire all stock upon repurchase. Future repurchases are expected to be funded from cash on hand and cash flows from operating activities.

We believe that our current cash balance and expected cash flow from operations will be sufficient to satisfy our projected working capital and planned capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On June 7, 2022, the Company filed a lawsuit (the “Lawsuit”) in Utah naming as defendants the vendors from which the Company ordered equipment for its facility in Utah (collectively the “Defendants”). The Lawsuit relates to certain equipment ordered from Defendants and paid for by the Company, which Defendants never delivered. In the Lawsuit the Company is seeking the following relief: compensatory damages in the amount $490,000, representing the money the Company paid for the machines it never received, lost profits in the form of mask sales it could have made if Defendants had delivered the machines on the promised date, and other monetary and equitable relief. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has written off the $490,000 balance of the deposit paid for the equipment, pending any recovery in the Lawsuit. As of the date hereof, no counterclaims have been asserted against the Company. The Company believes there would not be any meritorious claims against the Company in the Lawsuit. The Lawsuit remains unresolved and the final outcome, including the potential amount of any recovery for the Company’s claims, is uncertain. Any potential recovery represents a gain contingency in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, that has not been recorded as the matter was not resolved as of June 30, 2023. Any recovery will be recorded when received. 

The Company is subject to various pending and threatened litigation actions in the ordinary course of business. Although it is not possible to determine with certainty at this point in time what liability, if any, the Company will have as a result of such litigation, based on consultation with legal counsel, management does not anticipate that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from such litigation will have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

2. Basis of Presentation and Revenue Recognition Policy

The interim financial information included in this report is unaudited; however, the information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods reflected herein. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, omit certain information and note disclosures that would be necessary to present the statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s current year SEC filings, as well as the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”), filed with the SEC on March 16, 2023. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 was prepared using information from the audited consolidated balance sheet contained in the 2022 Form 10-K; however, it does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements.

Net sales include revenue from products and shipping and handling charges, net of estimates for product returns and any related sales incentives. Our customer contracts have a single performance obligation: transfer control of products to customers. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for transferring control of products. All revenue is recognized when we satisfy our performance obligations under the applicable contract. We recognize revenue in connection with transferring control of the promised products to the customer, with revenue being recognized at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the products, which is generally when title passes to the customer upon delivery to a third party carrier for FOB shipping point arrangements and to the customer for FOB destination arrangements, at which time a receivable is created for the invoice sent to the customer. Shipping and handling activities are performed prior to the customer obtaining control of the goods and are accounted for as fulfillment activities and are not a promised good or service. Shipping and handling charges billed to customers are included in revenue. Shipping and handling costs, associated with the distribution of the Company’s product to the customers, are recorded in cost of goods sold and are recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which is generally when title passes to the customer upon delivery to a third party carrier for FOB shipping point arrangements and to the customer for FOB destination arrangements. We estimate product returns based on historical return rates and estimate rebates based on contractual agreements. Using probability assessments, we estimate sales incentives expected to be paid over the term of the contract. Sales taxes and value added taxes in foreign and domestic jurisdictions that are collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and, therefore, are excluded from net sales. The Company manufactures certain private label goods for customers and has determined that control does not pass to the customer at the time of manufacture, based upon the nature of the private labeling. The Company has determined as of June 30, 2023 that it had no material contract assets and concluded that its contract liabilities (primarily rebates) had the right of offset against customer receivables. See Note 10 and Note 11 of these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for information on revenue disaggregated by type and by geographic region.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Text Block]

3. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company previously granted stock options to employees and non-employee directors under a stock option plan (the “2004 Option Plan”). Stock options have been granted with exercise prices at or above the fair market value of the underlying shares of common stock on the date of grant. Options vest and expire according to terms established at the grant date. The 2004 Option Plan provided for a total of 5,000,000 common shares eligible for issuance. Under the 2004 Option Plan, approximately 5,009,750 options (taking into account cancelled and expired options that were added back to the plan reserve) had been granted as of December 31, 2020.

At the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Company’s shareholders approved the Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Incentive Plan”). The 2020 Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units, performance share awards, cash awards and other equity-based awards to employees (including officers), consultants and non-employee directors of the Company and its affiliates. A total of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2020 Incentive Plan, plus the number of shares underlying any award granted under the 2004 Option Plan that expires, terminates or is cancelled or forfeited under the terms of the 2004 Option Plan. As a result of the approval of the 2020 Incentive Plan, no future equity awards will be made pursuant to the 2004 Option Plan. Although no new awards may be granted under the 2004 Option Plan, all previously granted awards under the 2004 Option Plan will continue to be governed by the terms of the 2004 Option Plan.

The Company records compensation expense for the fair value of stock-based awards determined as of the grant date, including employee stock options and restricted stock awards, over the determined requisite service period, which is generally ratably over the vesting term.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, no stock options or restricted stock awards were granted under the 2020 Incentive Plan. The Company recognized $7,000 and $87,000 in stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to outstanding options previously granted under the 2004 Option Plan. The Company recognized $37,000 and $54,000 in compensation expense associated with outstanding restricted stock awards for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, $26,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding restricted stock awards was expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remainder period of 0.38 years.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the options. The Company uses historical data to estimate the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of an award is based on the US Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The estimated volatility is based on historical volatility and management’s expectations of future volatility. The Company uses an estimated dividend payout of zero, as the Company has not paid dividends in the past and, at this time, does not expect to do so in the future. The Company accounts for option forfeitures as they occur. The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023:

			Weighted Average
			Exercise Price
	Options		Per Option
Options outstanding, December 31, 2022		410,615	$	3.50

As of June 30, 2023, $30,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options was expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 4.23 years.

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures Disclosure [Text Block]

6. Equity Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate

In 2005, Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. (a subsidiary of Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.) entered into a joint venture with a manufacturer in India, Maple Industries and associates, for the production of building products. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, a private company, Harmony Plastics Private Limited (“Harmony”), was created with ownership interests of 41.66% owned by Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. and 58.34% owned by Maple Industries and associates.

This joint venture positions Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. to respond to current and expected increased product demand for housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment and provides future capacity for sales of specialty roofing component products and custom products for industrial applications requiring high quality extrusion coated fabrics. In addition, the joint venture now supplies products for the Company’s Disposable Protective Apparel segment.

The capital from the initial funding and a bank loan, which is guaranteed exclusively by the individual shareholders of Maple Industries and associates and collateralized by the assets of Harmony, were utilized to purchase the original manufacturing facility in India. Harmony currently has four facilities in India (three owned and one rented), consisting of: (1) a 139,000 square foot building for manufacturing building products; (2) a 121,000 square foot building for manufacturing coated material and sewing proprietary disposable protective apparel; (3) a 23,000 square foot facility for sewing proprietary disposable protective apparel; and (4) a 159,000 square foot facility (rented) for manufacturing Building Supply segment products. All additions have been financed by Harmony with no guarantees from the Company.

In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, the Company assesses whether or not related entities are variable interest entities (“VIEs”). For those related entities that qualify as VIEs, ASC 810 requires the Company to determine whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and, if so, to consolidate the VIE. The Company has determined that Harmony is not a VIE and is, therefore, considered to be an unconsolidated affiliate.

The Company records its investment in Harmony as “equity investment in unconsolidated affiliate” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company records its equity interest in Harmony’s results of operations as “equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate” in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The Company periodically reviews its investment in Harmony for impairment. Management has determined that no impairment was required as of June 30, 2023, or December 31, 2022. Under the equity method, since the Company’s reporting currency is different from of Harmony’s reporting currency, the Company is required to translate our proportionate share of equity for effects of translations in foreign currency and adjust the investment accordingly and accrue the adjustment as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”).

For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company purchased $4,834,000 and $5,676,000 of inventories, respectively, from Harmony. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company purchased $9,870,000 and $11,859,000 of inventories, respectively, from Harmony. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company sold $200,000 and $0 of inventories, respectively, to Harmony. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company sold $200,000 and $258,000 of inventories, respectively, to Harmony. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $103,000 and $50,000, respectively, related to Harmony. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $212,000 and $99,000, respectively, related to Harmony.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s investment in Harmony was $5,089,000, which consisted of its original $1,450,000 investment and cumulative equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $5,987,000, less $942,000 in repayments of an advance, $77,000 in payments of dividends, and $1,331,000 in AOCL on foreign currency translations.

14. Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred income tax assets unless it is more likely than not that such assets will be realized. The Company’s policy is to record any interest and penalties assessed by the Internal Revenue Service as a component of the provision for income taxes. The Company provides allowances for uncertain income tax positions when it is more likely than not that the position will not be sustained upon examination by the tax authority.

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and in various state and foreign jurisdictions.

An employer generally does not claim a corporate income tax deduction (which would be in an amount equal to the amount of income recognized by the employee) upon the exercise of its employee's incentive stock options (“ISOs”) unless the employee does not meet the holding period requirements and sells early, making a disqualifying disposition, or if the options otherwise do not qualify as ISOs under applicable tax laws. With non-qualified stock options (“NQSOs”), on the other hand, the employer is typically eligible to claim a deduction upon its employee's exercise of the NQSOs.

On June 7, 2022, the Company filed a lawsuit (the “Lawsuit”) in Utah naming as defendants the vendors from which the Company ordered equipment for its facility in Utah (collectively the “Defendants”). The Lawsuit relates to certain equipment ordered from Defendants and paid for by the Company, which Defendants never delivered. In the Lawsuit the Company is seeking the following relief: compensatory damages in the amount $490,000, representing the money the Company paid for the machines it never received, lost profits in the form of mask sales it could have made if Defendants had delivered the machines on the promised date, and other monetary and equitable relief. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has written off the $490,000 balance of the deposit paid for the equipment, pending any recovery in the Lawsuit. As of the date hereof, no counterclaims have been asserted against the Company. The Company believes there would not be any meritorious claims against the Company in the Lawsuit. The Lawsuit has not been resolved and the final outcome, including the potential amount of any recovery for the Company’s claims, is uncertain.
