Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
(Amounts in thousands, except per share data)
1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
A. Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of SIFCO Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the Company). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for all of the Companys U.S. operations and its Irish subsidiary. For these operations, all gains and losses from completed currency transactions are included in income currently. For the Companys other non-U.S. subsidiaries, the functional currency is the local currency. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange at the end of the period, and revenues and expenses are translated using average rates of exchange. Foreign currency translation adjustments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements.
These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Companys fiscal 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for other interim periods or the full year. Certain prior period amounts may have been reclassified in order to conform to current period classifications.
B. Net Income per Share
The Companys net income per basic share has been computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Net income per diluted share reflects the effect of the Companys outstanding stock options, restricted shares and performance shares under the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of the Companys stock options, restricted shares and performance shares were as follows:

Outstanding share awards relating to approximately 147 and 132 weighted average shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and outstanding share awards relating to approximately 147 and 121 weighted average shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, as the impact of including such share awards in the calculation of diluted earnings per share would have had an anti-dilutive effect.
C. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company uses an interest rate swap agreement to reduce risk related to variable-rate debt, which is subject to changes in market rates of interest. The interest rate swap is designated as a cash flow hedge. At June 30, 2012, the Company held an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $8,500. Cash flows related to the interest rate swap agreement are included in interest expense. The Companys interest rate swap agreement and its variable-rate term debt are based upon
5
LIBOR. During the first nine months of fiscal year 2012, the Companys interest rate swap agreement qualified as a fully effective cash flow hedge against the Companys variable-rate term note interest risk. The following table reports the effects of the mark-to-market valuation of the Companys interest rate swap agreement at June 30, 2012:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for 46% and 54% of the Companys inventories at June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively. The first-in, first-out (FIFO) method is used for the remainder of the inventories. If the FIFO method had been used for the inventories for which cost is determined using the LIFO method, inventories would have been $8,616 and $7,974 higher than reported at June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively.

In October 2011, the Company entered into an amendment to its existing credit agreement (the Credit Agreement Amendment) with its bank increasing the maximum borrowing amount from $30.0 million to $40.0 million, of which $10.0 million is a five (5) year term loan and $30.0 million is a five (5) year revolving loan, secured by substantially all the assets of the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries and a pledge of 65% of the stock of its non-U.S. subsidiaries. The term loan is repayable in quarterly installments of $0.5 million starting December 1, 2011.
The term loan has a Libor-based variable interest rate that was 2.2% at June 30, 2012 and which becomes an effective fixed rate of 2.9% after giving effect to an interest rate swap agreement. Borrowing under the revolving loan bears interest at a rate equal to Libor plus 0.75% to 1.75%, which percentage fluctuates based on the Companys leverage ratio of outstanding indebtedness to EBITDA. The loans are subject to certain customary financial covenants including, without limitation, covenants that require the Company to not exceed a maximum leverage ratio and to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. There is also a commitment fee ranging from 0.10% to 0.25% to be incurred on the unused balance. The Company was in compliance with all applicable loan covenants as of June 30, 2012.
In connection with the acquisition of the QAF business, as discussed more fully in Note 11, the Company issued a $2.4 million non-interest bearing promissory note to the seller, which note is payable by the Company in November, 2013. The imputed interest rate used to discount the note was 2% per annum.
6. | Government Grants |
In the past, the Company received grants from certain government entities as an incentive to invest in facilities, research and employees. Remaining grants, principally capital in nature, are amortized into income over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The unamortized portion of deferred grant revenue recorded in other long-term liabilities at June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011 was $334 and $375, respectively. The Companys grants are denominated primarily in Euros. The Company adjusts its deferred grant revenue balance in response to currency exchange rate fluctuations for as long as such grants are treated as obligations.
7. | Income Taxes |
For each interim reporting period, the Company makes an estimate of the effective tax rate it expects to be applicable for the full fiscal year. This estimated effective rate is used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis. The Companys effective tax rate through the first nine months of fiscal 2012 was 31%, compared to 32% for the same period in fiscal 2011, and differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to (i) the impact of U.S. state and local income taxes, (ii) a domestic production activities deduction, (iii) application of tax credits and (iv) the recognition of U.S. federal income taxes on undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries. The income tax provision consists of the following:

In previous periods, the Company has awarded stock options under its shareholder approved 1995 Stock Option Plan (1995 Plan) and 1998 Long-term Incentive Plan (1998 Plan). No further options may be awarded under either the 1995 Plan or the 1998 Plan. Option exercise price is not less than fair market value on date of grant and options are exercisable no later than ten years from date of grant. All options awarded under both plans are fully vested as of June 30, 2012.

As of June 30, 2012, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to the stock options granted under either the 1995 or 1998 Plans.
The Company has awarded performance and restricted shares under its shareholder approved 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (2007 Plan). The aggregate number of shares that may be awarded under the 2007 Plan is 600 less any shares previously awarded and subject to an adjustment for the forfeiture of any unissued shares. In addition, shares that may be awarded are subject to individual recipient award limitations. The shares awarded under the 2007 Plan may be made in multiple forms including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted or unrestricted stock, and performance related shares. Any such awards are exercisable no later than ten years from date of grant.
The performance shares that have been awarded under the 2007 Plan generally provide for the issuance of the Companys common shares upon the Company achieving certain defined financial performance objectives during a period up to three years following the making of such award. The ultimate number of common shares of the Company that may be earned pursuant to an award ranges from a minimum of no shares to a maximum of 150% of the initial target number of performance shares awarded, depending on the level of the Companys achievement of its financial performance objectives.
With respect to such performance shares, compensation expense is being accrued at (i) 100% of the target levels for recipients of the performance shares awarded during fiscal 2012, (ii) 100% of the target levels for recipients of the performance shares awarded during fiscal 2011 and (iii) approximately 115% of the target levels for recipients of the performance shares awarded during fiscal 2010. During each future reporting period, such expense may be subject to adjustment based upon the Companys subsequent estimate of the number of common shares that it expects to issue upon the completion of the performance period. The performance shares were valued at the closing market price of the Companys common shares on the date of grant, and such value was recorded as unearned compensation. The vesting of such shares is determined at the end of the performance period.
During fiscal 2012, the Company awarded restricted shares to certain of its directors. The restricted shares were valued at the closing market price of the Companys common shares on the date of grant, and such value was recorded as unearned compensation. The unearned compensation is being amortized ratably over the restricted stock vesting period of one (1) to three (3) years.
If all outstanding share awards are ultimately earned and issued at the target number of shares, then at June 30, 2012 there are approximately 398 shares that remain available for award. If any of the outstanding share awards are ultimately earned and issued at greater than the target number of shares, up to a maximum of 150% of such target, then a fewer number of shares would be available for award.
Compensation expense related to all performance and restricted shares awarded under the 2007 Plan was $822 and $340 during the first nine months of fiscal 2012 and 2011, respectively. As of June 30, 2012, there was $1,629 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the performance and restricted shares awarded under the 2007 Plan. The Company expects to recognize this cost over the next 2.3 years.

11. | Business Acquisition |
On October 28, 2011, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Forge Acquisition, LLC now known as Quality Aluminum Forge, LLC (QAF), the Company completed the purchase of the forging business and substantially all related operating assets from GEL Industries, Inc. (DBA Quality Aluminum Forge, Inc.). The forging business is operated in QAFs Orange and Long Beach, California facilities, all of which are leased. The purchase price for the forging business and related operating assets was approximately $24.8 million payable in cash, subject to certain adjustments related principally to the delivered working capital level and/or indemnification holdback provisions under the purchase agreement. In addition, the Company has assumed certain current operating liabilities of the forging business.
12
The QAF purchase transaction is accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The allocation of the purchase price, including amounts attributable to goodwill and intangible assets, all of which belong to the Forged Component Group, is as follows:

The above fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as initially reported, were based upon appraisals, other studies and additional information available at the time of the acquisition of QAF. Measurement period adjustments reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. The Company believes that such information provided a reasonable basis for determining the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
On December 10, 2010, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, TWF Acquisition, LLC now known as T&W Forge, LLC (TWF), the Company completed the purchase of the forging business and substantially all related operating assets from T&W Forge, Inc. (T&W Forge). TWF operates in T&W Forges Alliance, Ohio facility under a long-term lease arrangement, with an option to purchase the facility at a nominal price. The TWF purchase transaction is accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.
The results of operation of QAF and TWF from their respective dates of acquisition are included in the Companys unaudited consolidated condensed statements of operations and are reported in the Forge Group. The following unaudited pro forma information presents a summary of the results of operations for the Company including QAF and TWF as if the acquisitions had occurred on October 1, 2010 and 2009, respectively:

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations may contain various forward-looking statements and includes assumptions concerning the Companys operations, future results and prospects. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and are subject to risk and uncertainties. In connection with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company provides this cautionary statement identifying important economic, political and technological factors, among others, the absence or effect of which could cause the actual results or events to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by the forward-looking statements and related assumptions. Such factors include the following: (1) the impact on business conditions in general, and on the demand for product in the aerospace and power generation industries in particular, of the global economic outlook, including the continuation of military spending at or near current levels and the availability of capital and liquidity from banks and other providers of credit; (2) future business environment, including capital and consumer spending; (3) competitive factors, including the ability to replace business which may be lost; (4) successful development of turbine component repair processes and/or procurement of new repair process licenses from turbine engine manufacturers and/or the Federal Aviation Administration; (5) metals and commodities price increases and the Companys ability to recover such price increases; (6) successful development and market introduction of new products and services (7) continued reliance on consumer acceptance of regional and business aircraft powered by more fuel efficient turboprop engines; (8) continued
13
reliance on military spending, in general, and/or several major customers, in particular, for revenues; (9) the impact on future contributions to the Companys defined benefit pension plans due to changes in actuarial assumptions, government regulations and the market value of plan assets; (10) stable governments, business conditions, laws, regulations and taxes in economies where business is conducted and (11) the ability to successfully integrate businesses that may be acquired into the Companys operations.
The Company and its subsidiaries engage in the production and sale of a variety of metalworking processes, services and products produced primarily to the specific design requirements of its customers. The processes and services include both conventional and precision forging, heat-treating, coating, welding, precision component machining and selective plating. The products include conventional and precision forged components, machined forged components, other machined metal components, remanufactured component parts for turbine engines, and selective plating solutions and equipment. The Companys operations are conducted in three business segments: (1) Forged Components Group, (2) Turbine Component Services and Repair Group, and (3) Applied Surface Concepts Group.
The Company endeavors to plan and evaluate its businesses operations while taking into consideration certain factors including the following (i) the projected build rate for commercial, business and military aircraft as well as the engines that power such aircraft, (ii) the projected build rate for industrial gas turbine engines, (iii) the projected maintenance, repair and overhaul schedules for commercial, business and military aircraft as well as the engines that power such aircraft, and (iv) anticipated exploration and production activities relative to oil and gas products, etc.
The primary factor that impacts the operating income of all three of the Companys business segments, in a similar manner, is net sales and related production volumes. This is due to the fact that each of the Companys segments operates within a cost structure that includes a significant fixed component. Therefore, higher net sales volumes are expected to result in greater operating income because such higher volumes allow the business segments operations to better leverage the fixed component of their respective cost structures. Conversely, the opposite effect is expected to occur at lower net sales and related production volumes.
A. Results of Operations
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Presented below is certain financial information based on our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. References to EBITDA mean earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and references to Adjusted EBITDA mean EBITDA plus, as applicable for each relevant period, certain adjustments as set forth in the reconciliations of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.
Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA is a measurement of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The Company presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because (i) it believes they are useful indicators for evaluating operating performance and liquidity, including the Companys ability to incur and service debt and (ii) it uses EBITDA to evaluate prospective acquisitions. Although the Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the reasons noted, the use of these non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools has limitations and, therefore, reviewers of the Companys financial information should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of its results of operations as reported in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
| Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA reflects the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest payments, on indebtedness; |
| Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA reflects any cash requirements for such replacements; |
| The omission of the substantial amortization expense associated with the Companys intangible assets further limits the usefulness of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA; |
| Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA includes the payment of taxes, which is a necessary element of operations; and |
| Adjusted EBITDA excludes the cash expense the Company has incurred to acquire businesses. |
Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to the Company to invest in the growth of its businesses. Management compensates for these limitations by not viewing EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA in isolation and specifically by using other GAAP measures, such as net income, net sales and operating profit, to measure operating performance. Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA is a measurement of financial performance under GAAP, and neither should be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations determined in accordance with GAAP. The Companys calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The increase in net sales of forged components for fixed wing aircraft during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the comparable period in fiscal 2011, is principally due to the impact of the acquisition of QAF during the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in net sales of engine components for power generation units is due to the impact of the acquisition of TWF in December 2010. Net sales of aerospace components for rotorcraft increased in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, principally due to the acquisition of QAF as well as negative impact on sales volumes during the first nine months of fiscal 2011 resulting from a significant customer that was in the process of adjusting its inventory levels of certain components.
The Forge Groups aerospace components have both military and commercial applications. Net sales of such components that solely have military applications increased $2.1 million to $25.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with $23.6 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2011, due principally to the acquisition of QAF. Demand for additional military helicopters and related replacement components are the primary driver of the sales demand for components for military applications.
The Forge Groups cost of goods sold increased $13.4 million to $59.8 million, or 78.2% of net sales, during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with $46.4 million, or 78.0% of net sales, in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales reflected an increase in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2011, due to the net impact of the changes in the following components of manufacturing related expenditures:
| The material component of manufacturing costs was approximately 36.3% of net sales during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with 39.4% of net sales in the comparable period in fiscal 2011, due primarily to the mix of product a higher concentration of products, with lower material content, were sold during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the comparable period in fiscal 2011. |
| All other manufacturing costs were approximately 41.9% of net sales during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with 38.6% of net sales in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. Labor costs were higher principally due to the mix of product a higher concentration of products with higher labor content were sold during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the comparable period in fiscal 2011. The Forge Group also experienced a reduction in its labor efficiency during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the comparable period in fiscal 2011. The following changes in the components of the Forge Groups other manufacturing overhead expenditures during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, a portion of which was due to the acquisitions of QAF and TWF, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, also impacted cost of goods sold: |

Manufacturing costs in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, increased due to (i) an increase in manufacturing expenditures required to support the $17.0 million of additional product sales volume for the Forge Group and (ii) an increase in depreciation expense, both of which were primarily attributable to the acquisitions of TWF and QAF. These higher costs were partially offset by a decrease in the price paid for natural gas in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011.

The Forge Groups selling, general and administrative expenses increased $2.2 million to $6.8 million, or 8.8% of net sales, in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with $4.6 million, or 7.7% of net sales, in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is principally due to (i) a $0.9 million increase in amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisitions of TWF and QAF and (ii) a $1.3 million increase in relative spending levels due to the impact of the acquisitions of TWF and QAF. The Forge Groups selling, general and administrative expenses in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, before the impact of the amortization of intangible assets, was $4.6 million, or 6.0% of net sales, compared with $3.3 million, or 5.5% of net sales, in the comparable period in fiscal 2011.
The Forge Groups operating income increased $1.3 million to $9.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with $8.6 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. The following is a comparison of operating income on both a LIFO and FIFO basis:

The Forge Groups operating income in the first nine months of fiscal 2012 was favorably impacted by the increase in gross profit generated from $16.6 million of additional product sales volumes for TWF and QAF plus the net impact of the other cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expense factors noted above.
The Forge Groups backlog as of June 30, 2012 was $107.7 million, of which $87.7 million was scheduled for delivery over the next twelve months, compared with $92.2 million as of September 30, 2011, of which $74.3 million was scheduled for delivery over the next twelve months. $17.8 million of the Forge Groups backlog as of June 30, 2012 is attributable to the impact of the recently acquired QAF business. All orders are subject to modification or cancellation by the customer with limited charges. Delivery lead times for certain raw materials (e.g. aerospace grades of steel) have continued to lengthen due to increased demand and the Forge Group believes that such lead time increase may ultimately result in a fundamental shift in the ordering pattern of its customers. The Forge Group believes that a likely result of such a shift is that customers may place orders further in advance than they previously did, which may result in an increase, relative to comparable prior year periods, in the Forge Groups backlog. Accordingly, such backlog increase, to the extent it may occur, is not necessarily indicative of actual sales expected for any succeeding period.
Turbine Component Services and Repair Group (Repair Group)
Net sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, which consists principally of component repair services (including precision component machining and industrial coatings) for small aerospace turbine engines, decreased 19.3% to 5.6 million, compared with $7.0 million in the comparable fiscal 2011 period. The decrease in net sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2012 is attributable to a decrease in product sales volumes, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011.
The Repair Groups cost of goods sold decreased $0.4 million to $5.5 million, or 96.6% of net sales, during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with $5.9 million, or 84.1% of net sales, in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales reflected an increase in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2011, due principally to the Repair Group maintaining a minimum/base cost structure that has a large fixed component that is determined necessary to sustain an operation with relevant capabilities.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2012, the Repair Groups selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.0 million, or 18.5% of net sales, compared with $1.0 million, or 14.5% of net sales, in the comparable fiscal 2011 period.
The Repair Groups operating income decreased $1.0 million to a loss of $0.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with income of $0.1 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. Operating results in the first nine months of fiscal 2012 was negatively impacted by the significantly lower product sales volumes in relation to the large fixed component of the Repair Groups operating cost structure. The Repair Group will need to increase its product sales volumes to increase its operating income.
17
The Repair Groups backlog was $1.1 million as of June 30, 2012, of which $0.2 million was scheduled for delivery over the next twelve months, compared with $1.2 million at September 30, 2011, of which $0.4 million was scheduled for delivery over the next twelve months.
Applied Surface Concepts Group (ASC Group)
Net sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2012 increased 7.4% to $11.4 million, compared with $10.6 million in the comparable fiscal 2011 period. For purposes of the following discussion, (i) product net sales consist of selective plating equipment and solutions and (ii) contract service net sales consist of customized selective plating services.

The increase in product net sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, is attributed to an increase in net sales volumes of selective plating equipment, as well as a general price increase implemented at the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal 2012. A portion of the ASC Groups business is conducted in Europe and is denominated in local European currencies. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, had a nominal impact on net sales.
The ASC Groups cost of goods sold increased $0.3 million to $6.4 million, or 56.3% of net sales, during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with $6.1 million, or 57.6% of net sales, in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales reflected a decrease in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2011, due principally to the following:
| The material component of cost of goods sold was approximately 19.6% of net sales during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with 18.2% of net sales in the comparable period in fiscal 2011, due principally to certain higher commodity prices and the mix of product a higher concentration of products and contract services, with higher material content, were sold during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011. |
| All other cost of goods sold were approximately 36.6% of net sales during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with 39.4% of net sales in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. The primary reason for the reduction of all other cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales is the impact of higher sales volumes during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, which allowed the ASC Group to favorably leverage the fixed component of its operating cost structure. |
The ASC Groups selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.0 million, or 35.5% of net sales, in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with $3.6 million, or 34.0% of net sales in the comparable fiscal 2011 period. The $0.4 million increase is due primarily to an increase in sales promotion efforts and the filling of an open sales position.
The ASC Groups operating income was $0.9 million in the first nine months of both fiscal years 2012 and 2011.
The ASC Groups backlog as of June 30, 2012 was not material, which is consistent with the nature of its business.
Corporate Unallocated Expenses
Corporate unallocated expenses, consisting of corporate salaries and benefits, legal and professional and other expenses that are not related to and, therefore, not allocated to the business segments, were $2.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared with $2.1 million in the same period in fiscal 2011. The $0.2 million increase is due to a $0.1 million increase in compensation and benefits expense principally related to the Companys long-term equity incentive plan and a $0.1 million increase in legal and professional expense.

The increase in net sales of forged components for fixed wing aircraft during the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with the comparable period in fiscal 2011, is principally due to the impact of the acquisition of QAF during the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Net sales of components for power generation units decreased in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, principally due to the negative impact on sales volumes resulting from a significant customer that was in the process of adjusting its inventory levels of certain components.
The Forge Groups aerospace components have both military and commercial applications. Net sales of such components that solely have military applications increased $0.7 million to $8.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with $8.1 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2011, principally due to the acquisition of QAF. Demand for additional military helicopters and related replacement components are the primary driver of the sales demand for components for military applications.
The Forge Groups cost of goods sold increased $1.2 million to $19.3 million, or 75.3% of net sales, during the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with $18.1 million, or 78.4% of net sales, in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales reflected a decrease in 2012, compared to 2011, due to the net impact of the changes in the following components of manufacturing related expenditures:
| The material component of manufacturing costs was approximately 36.3% of net sales during the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with 42.4% of net sales in the comparable period in fiscal 2011, due primarily to the mix of product a higher concentration of products, with lower material content, were sold during the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with the comparable period in fiscal 2011. |
| All other manufacturing costs were approximately 39.0% of net sales during the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with 36.0% of net sales in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. Labor costs were higher principally due to the mix of product a higher concentration of products with higher labor content were sold during the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with the comparable period in fiscal 2011. The Forge Group also experienced a reduction in its labor efficiency during the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011. The following changes in the components of the Forge Groups other manufacturing overhead expenditures during the third quarter of fiscal 2012, a portion of which was due to the acquisition of QAF, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, also impacted cost of goods sold: |

Manufacturing costs in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, increased due to (i) an increase in manufacturing expenditures required to support the $2.5 million of additional product sales volume for the Forge Group and (ii) an increase in depreciation expense, both of which were primarily attributable to the acquisition of QAF. These higher costs were partially offset by a decrease in the price paid for natural gas in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011.
The Forge Groups selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.5 million to $2.2 million, or 8.6% of net sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with $1.7 million, or 7.5% of net sales, in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is principally due to (i) a $0.1 million increase in amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of TWF and QAF and (ii) a $0.3 million increase in relative spending levels due to the impact of the acquisition of QAF. The Forge Groups selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, before the impact of the amortization of intangible assets in both periods, was $1.5 million, or 5.8% of net sales, compared with $1.2 million, or 5.0% of net sales, in the comparable period in fiscal 2011.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales reflected an increase in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2011, due principally to the Repair Group maintaining a minimum/base cost structure that has a large fixed component that is determined necessary to sustain an operation with relevant capabilities.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the Repair Groups selling, general and administrative expenses were $0.3 million, or 21.3% of net sales, compared with $0.3 million, or 14.3% of net sales, in the comparable fiscal 2011 period.
The Repair Groups operating income decreased $0.4 million to a loss of $0.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with breakeven results in the comparable period in fiscal 2011. Operating results in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 were negatively impacted by the significantly lower product sales volumes in relation to the large fixed component of the Repair Groups operating cost structure. The Repair Group will need to increase its product sales volumes to increase its operating income.

A portion of the ASC Groups business is conducted in Europe and is denominated in local European currencies. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates during the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011, had a $0.1 million favorable impact on net sales.
The ASC Groups cost of goods sold in the third quarter of both fiscal years 2012 and 2011 was $2.1 million, or approximately 56.0% of net sales.
The ASC Groups selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.4 million, or 37.9% of net sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with $1.3 million, or 34.5% of net sales in the comparable fiscal 2011 period. The $0.1 million increase is due primarily to an increase in sales promotion efforts.

Cash and cash equivalents increased $0.7 million to $7.1 million at June 30, 2012 from $6.4 million at September 30, 2011. At June 30, 2012, essentially all of the $7.1 million of the Companys cash and cash equivalents were in the possession of its non-U.S. subsidiaries for purposes of (i) funding the respective subsidiary businesses current operations and (ii) to fund potential future investment outside the U.S. In the future, if the Company determines that there is no longer a need to maintain such cash within its non-U.S. operations, it may elect to distribute such cash to its U.S. operations. Distributions from the Companys non-U.S. subsidiaries to the Company may be subject to adverse tax consequences.
The Companys operating activities provided $4.6 million of cash in the first nine months of fiscal 2012 compared with $8.4 million of cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2011. The $4.6 million of cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2012 was primarily due to (i) net income of $5.4 million; (ii) $6.3 million from the impact of such non-cash items as depreciation and amortization expense, deferred taxes, equity based compensation expense and LIFO expense and (iii) a $0.9 million decrease in accounts receivable. These items were partially offset by (i) a $5.6 million increase in inventories and (ii) a $1.6 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. These changes in the components of working capital do not take into consideration the impact of the opening balance sheet related to the acquisition of QAF and were due primarily to factors resulting from normal business conditions of the Company, including (i) to support growth in business, (ii) the relative timing of collections from customers and (iii) the relative timing of payments to suppliers and tax authorities.
Capital expenditures were $1.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2012 compared with $2.4 million in the comparable fiscal 2011 period. Capital expenditures during the first nine months of fiscal 2012 consist of $1.3 million by the Forge Group, $0.3 million by the Repair Group; $0.1 million by the ASC Group and $0.1 million at the non-operating corporate level. In addition to the $1.8 million expended during the first nine months of fiscal 2012, $0.7 million has been committed as of June 30, 2012. The Company anticipates that total fiscal 2012 capital expenditures will be within the range of $2.5 to $3.0 million and will relate principally to the expansion of the Forge Groups production capabilities.
As described more fully in note 11 to the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements, the Company acquired a forging business in October 2011 for approximately $24.8 million at closing. The acquisition was financed by borrowing
22
approximately $22.4 million from its bank, which borrowing consisted of a new $10.0 million term loan and drawing approximately $12.4 million from its revolving credit facility. The balance of the acquisition was financed by the Company issuing a $2.4 million promissory note to the seller, which note is payable by the Company in November 2013.
In October 2011, the Company entered into an amendment to its existing credit agreement (the Credit Agreement Amendment) with its bank increasing the maximum borrowing amount from $30.0 million to $40.0 million, of which $10.0 million is a five (5) year term loan and $30.0 million is a five (5) year revolving loan, secured by substantially all the assets of the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries and a pledge of 65% of the stock of its non-U.S. subsidiaries. The term loan is repayable in quarterly installments of $0.5 million starting December 1, 2011.
The term loan has a variable interest rate based on Libor, which becomes an effective fixed rate of 2.9% after giving effect to an interest rate swap agreement. Borrowing under the revolving loan bears interest at a rate equal to Libor plus 0.75% to 1.75%, which percentage fluctuates based on the Companys leverage ratio of outstanding indebtedness to EBITDA. The bank loans are subject to certain customary financial covenants including, without limitation, covenants that require the Company to not exceed a maximum leverage ratio and to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. There is also a commitment fee ranging from 0.10% to 0.25% to be incurred on the unused balance. The promissory note issued to the seller is non-interest bearing and is due in November of 2013. The Company was in compliance with all applicable loan covenants as of June 30, 2012.
Future cash flows from the Companys U.S. operations will be used to pay down amounts outstanding under the Companys credit agreement. The Company believes it has adequate cash available in the possession of its non-U.S. subsidiaries to finance its non-U.S. operations. The Company believes it has adequate cash/liquidity available from the combination of (i) its cash flows from U.S. operations and (ii) funds available under its existing credit agreement to finance its U.S operations.
C. Impact of Newly Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in ASU 2011-05, and as a result entities are required to continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before ASU 2011-05. This update is effective for public companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
As defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures include components of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Management of the Company, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) as of June 30, 2012 (the Evaluation Date). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Accordingly, management has concluded that the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, the Companys financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
During the nine month period ended June 30, 2012, the following occurred:
| On October 28, 2011, the Company acquired the forging business and related assets from GEL Industries, Inc., which operated under its own set of systems and internal controls. The Company is maintaining those systems and much of the internal control environment until such time that it is able to incorporate the acquired processes into the Companys own control environment. The Company expects to be substantially complete with the incorporation of the acquired operations, as they relate to systems and internal controls, into its control environment during fiscal 2012. |
23
There were no other changes to the Companys internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, which would be expected to have a material effect on financial reporting.
