The Term Loan Agreement imposes financial covenants, including covenants requiring the Company to maintain a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) of 1.10-to-1 and maintain the same leverage ratio of Total Debt to EBITDA as described above under the Credit Agreement. The Company is required to make quarterly repayments of the principal amount of the TCW Term Loan in amounts equal to $250,000 per fiscal quarter for the quarters beginning October 31, 2022 and $500,000 per fiscal quarter for quarters beginning October 31, 2024. The Term Loan Agreement also requires mandatory annual repayments equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement).

The TCW Term Loan is secured by: (a) a first priority security interest in all property of SigmaTron and Wagz that does not constitute ABL Priority Collateral, which includes: (i) SigmaTron’s and Wagz’s real estate other than SigmaTron’s Del Rio, Texas, warehouses, (ii) SigmaTron’s and Wagz’s machinery, equipment and fixtures (but excluding ABL Priority Equipment (as defined in the ICA)), (iii) the Term Priority Mexican Inventory, (as defined in the ICA), (iv) SigmaTron’s stock in its direct and indirect subsidiaries, (v) SigmaTron’s and Wagz’s general intangibles (excluding any that constitute ABL Priority Collateral), goodwill and intellectual property, (vi) the proceeds of business interruption insurance that constitute Term BI Insurance Share (as defined in the ICA), (vii) tax refunds, and (viii) all proceeds thereof, in each case, now owned or hereafter acquired (collectively, the “Term Priority Collateral”); and (b) a second priority security interest in all collateral that constitutes ABL Priority Collateral. Also, SigmaTron’s three Mexican subsidiaries pledged all of their assets as security for the TCW Term Loan.

On July 18, 2022, a portion of the proceeds of the TCW Term Loan was used to pay in full the term loan principal amount of $5,000,000 (the “FILO Term Loan”) that Lender extended to the Company under the Agreement on April 25, 2022.

On April 23, 2020, the Company received a PPP loan from U.S. Bank, as lender, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program of the CARES Act, as administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) in the amount of $6,282,973 (the “PPP Loan”). The PPP Loan was scheduled to mature on April 23, 2022. The Company was notified of the forgiveness of the PPP Loan by the SBA on July 9, 2021 and all principal and accrued interest were forgiven. The accounting for the forgiveness is reflected in the Company’s Statements of Income, in the six months ended October 31, 2021, as a non-cash gain upon extinguishment of long-term debt.

On March 15, 2019, the Company’s wholly-owned foreign enterprise, Wujiang SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., entered into a credit facility with China Construction Bank. On January 26, 2021, the agreement was amended and terminated on January 6, 2022. On January 17, 2022, the agreement was renewed, and is scheduled to expire on December 23, 2022.

The Company entered into a mortgage agreement on March 3, 2020, in the amount of $556,000, with The Bank and Trust SSB to finance the purchase of the property that serves as the Company’s warehousing and distribution center in Del Rio, Texas. The note requires the Company to pay monthly installment payments in the amount of $6,103. Interest accrues at a fixed rate of 5.75% per year until March 3, 2025, and adjusts thereafter, on an annual basis, equal to 1.0% over the Prime Rate as published by The Wall Street Journal. The note is payable over a 120 month period. The outstanding balance was $441,361 and $464,895 at October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, respectively.

Notes Payable – Equipment

Finance Lease and Sales Leaseback Obligations

The Company enters into various finance lease and sales leaseback agreements. The terms of the outstanding lease agreements mature through October 1, 2026, with monthly installment payments ranging from $2,874 to $33,706 and a fixed interest rate ranging from 7.09% to 12.73% per annum.

Note F - Income Tax

The income tax expense was $1,255,967 for the three month period ended October 31, 2022 compared to an income tax expense of $1,513,512 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The Company’s effective tax rate was 59.03% and 32.45% for the quarters ended October 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in effective tax rate is due primarily to an increase in valuation allowance during the three month period ended October 31, 2022.

The income tax expense was $1,785,367 for the six month period ended October 31, 2022 compared to an income tax expense of $2,270,457 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The Company’s effective tax rate was 44.26% and 15.97% for the six month period ended October 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in income tax expense for the six month period ended October 31, 2022 compared to the same period in the previous year is due to a decrease in income recognized in the current year compared to the previous year. The increase in effective tax rate for the six month period ended October 31, 2022 is due primarily to tax exempt income recognized in the previous year.

As described in Note E, the Company received a PPP Loan under the CARES Act of $6,282,973. For federal income tax purposes, the CARES Act expressly provides that any forgiveness or cancellation of all or part of such loans will not be treated as income for tax purposes. On January 6, 2021 the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2021-02 allowing deductions for the payments of eligible expenses when such payments would result in the forgiveness of a loan under the PPP. The ruling supersedes previous IRS guidance stating that such deductions would be disallowed. The Company received full forgiveness of its PPP Loan on July 9, 2021. In accordance with the CARES Act and IRS Revenue Ruling 2021-02, the loan forgiveness amount was excluded from income for tax purposes.

After SigmaTron’s merger with Wagz, Inc. (“Wagz”) effective December 31, 2021, SigmaTron and Wagz (collectively, the “Company”) will file tax returns on a consolidated basis for periods ending after the merger. In evaluating the consolidated group’s ability to recover its deferred tax assets on a consolidated basis, and considering historical operating results of both companies, the consolidated group’s deferred tax assets are not more likely than not to be realized. Therefore, a valuation allowance was established on the group’s U.S. deferred tax assets during fiscal year 2022. The Company has established a valuation allowance of $4,627,775 on its federal and state NOL carryforwards and other U.S. deferred tax assets as of October 31, 2022. The Company had also established a valuation allowance of $452,484 on NOLs attributable to its Vietnam subsidiary as of October 31, 2022. Based on historical losses and forecasted future earnings, the Company had determined that the tax benefit from such assets are more likely than not to be realized. The Company’s valuation allowance was $5,080,259 and $4,543,819 as of October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, respectively.

The Company has not changed its plans to indefinitely reinvest the earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. The cumulative amount of unremitted earnings for which U.S. income taxes have not been recorded is $11,255,000 as of October 31, 2022.

Note G - Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time the Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims or investigations that are incidental to the conduct of the Company’s business. In future periods, the Company could be subjected to cash cost or non-cash charges to earnings if any of these matters is resolved on unfavorable terms. However, although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including management’s assessment of the merits of any particular claim, the Company does not expect that these legal proceedings or claims will have any material adverse impact on its future consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note H - Significant Accounting Policies

Management Estimates and Uncertainties - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements include depreciation and amortization periods, the allowance for doubtful accounts, excess and obsolete reserves for inventory, deferred income, deferred taxes, valuation allowance for deferred taxes and valuation of goodwill and long-lived assets. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

The potential impact of future disruptions and continued economic uncertainty over the Company’s global supply chain may have a significant adverse impact on the timing of delivery of customer orders and the levels of future customer orders. It is possible that these potential adverse impacts may result in the recognition of material impairments of the Company’s long-lived assets or other related charges in future periods.

Revenue Recognition - The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated by the principal end-user markets it serves:

		Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

During the three and six month periods ending October 31, 2022, no revenues were recognized from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods and no amounts were allocated to performance obligations that remain unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at October 31, 2022. The Company is electing not to disclose the amount of the remaining unsatisfied performance obligation with a duration of one year or less as permitted by the practical expedient in ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The Company had no material remaining unsatisfied performance obligations as of October 31, 2022, with an expected duration of greater than one year.

Income Tax - The Company’s income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid. The Company is subject to income taxes in both the U.S. and several foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgments and estimates by management are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense assessment.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover its deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In projecting future taxable income, the Company begins with historical results and changes in accounting policies, and incorporates assumptions including the amount of future state, federal and foreign pre-tax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment and estimates by management about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company uses to manage the underlying businesses. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, the Company considers three years of cumulative operating income and/or loss. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount more likely than not to be realized. The Company’s valuation allowance was $5,080,259 and $4,543,819 as of October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, respectively.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews long-lived assets, including amortizable intangible assets, for impairment in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360: Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, machinery and equipment and finite life intangible assets are reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment. If events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment, the Company first performs an impairment review based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis at the lowest level at which cash flows of the long-lived assets are largely independent of other groups of its assets and liabilities. This analysis requires management judgment with respect to changes in technology, the continued success of product lines, and future volume, revenue and expense growth rates. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment, if any, for the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset group and its carrying value. The Company further conducts annual reviews of its long-lived asset groups for possible impairment. The Company’s analysis did not indicate that any of its other long-lived assets were impaired. The Company has yet to experience significant cancellations of orders; however, the potential impact of future disruptions, continued economic

uncertainty over COVID-19 may have a significant adverse impact on the timing of delivery of customer orders and the levels of future customer orders.

Goodwill - Goodwill represents the excess cost over fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses. The Company does not amortize goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives. The Company performs an impairment assessment of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives annually, or more frequently if triggering events occur, based on the estimated fair value of the related reporting unit or intangible asset. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. When performing its annual impairment assessment as of April 30, the Company evaluates the goodwill assigned to each of its reporting units for potential impairment by comparing the estimated fair value of the relevant reporting unit to the carrying value. The Company uses various Level 2 and Level 3 valuation techniques to determine the fair value of its reporting units, including discounting estimated future cash flows based on a cash flow forecast prepared by the relevant reporting unit and market multiples of relevant public companies. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, a goodwill impairment loss is recorded for the difference. No impairment of goodwill was recorded for the six month period ended October 31, 2022.

New Accounting Standards:

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13, as amended by ASU 2019-04 and ASU 2019-05, that introduces a new forward-looking approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The estimate of expected credit losses will require entities to incorporate considerations of historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU also expands the disclosure requirements to enable users of financial statements to understand the entity’s assumptions, models and methods for estimating expected credit losses. For small reporting companies, ASU 2016- 13 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and the guidance is to be applied using the modified-retrospective approach. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for a period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for the transition from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. Regulators and market participants in various jurisdictions have undertaken efforts to eliminate certain reference rates and introduce new reference rates that are based on a larger and more liquid population of observable transactions. The amendments in this update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. In January 2021, the FASB issued clarification on the scope of relief related to the reference rate reform.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Note I – Leases

The Company leases office and warehouse space, vehicles and other equipment under non-cancellable operating leases with initial terms typically ranging from 1 to 5 years. At contract inception, the Company reviews the facts and circumstances of the arrangement to determine if the contract is or contains a lease. The Company follows the guidance in Topic 842 “Leases” to evaluate whether the contract has an identified asset; if the Company has the right to obtain substantially all economic benefits from the asset; and if the Company has the right to direct the use of the underlying asset. When determining if a contract has an identified asset, the Company considers both explicit and implicit assets, and whether the supplier has the right to substitute the asset. When determining if the Company has the right to direct the use of an underlying asset, the Company considers if it has the right to direct how and for what purpose the asset is used throughout the period of use and if it controls the decision-making rights over the asset.

The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease. The Company exercises judgment to determine the term of those leases when extension or termination options are present and includes such options in the calculation of the lease term when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise those options.

The Company has elected to include both lease and non-lease components in the determination of lease payments. Payments made to a lessor for items such as taxes, insurance, common area maintenance, or other costs commonly referred to as executory costs, are also included in lease payments if they are fixed. The fixed portion of these payments are included in the calculation of the lease liability, while any variable portion would be recognized as variable lease expenses, when incurred. Variable payments made to third parties for these, or similar costs, such as utilities, are not included in the calculation of lease payments.

At commencement, lease-related assets and liabilities are measured at the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company exercises judgment in determining the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available when the lease commences to measure the present value of future payments.

Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Finance lease cost includes amortization, which is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected life of the leased asset, and interest expense, which is recognized following an effective interest rate method.

Operating leases are included in other assets, current operating lease obligations, and operating lease obligations (less current portion) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment and current and long-term portion of finance lease obligations on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Short term leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not presented on the balance sheet as expense is recognized as incurred.

Note J – Acquisition

On December 31, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of Wagz under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 19, 2021, as amended by the First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 7, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”). Wagz has developed and brought to market a high tech pet collar and has multiple other products in development. Wagz is an internet of things (“IoT”) company which both owns intellectual property and secures recurring revenue through subscriptions for its services.

Prior to the acquisition, the Company had an investment in Wagz of $600,000, Convertible Secured Promissory Notes issued by Wagz of $12,000,000 and Secured Promissory Notes issued by Wagz of $1,380,705. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, prior to the acquisition, the Convertible Secured Promissory Notes converted to 12,000,000 shares of Wagz common stock, resulting in a 25.5% ownership in Wagz. The Company's 25.5% equity interest in Wagz common stock was remeasured to fair value of $6,299,765, resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $6,300,235 within the Statements of Income during fiscal year 2022.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, 2,443,870 shares of common stock of the Company were issued in the merger for a value of $25,245,177, of which 1,546,592 shares are allocated to Wagz shareholders (excluding the Company) for a total value of $15,976,295, and 897,278 shares are allocated to the Company and treated as treasury stock for a total value of $9,268,881, recorded in the Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity for the fiscal year 2022. The treasury shares were retired as of April 30, 2022.

The following table summarizes the consideration for the acquisition of Wagz:

Consideration
Issuance of 1,546,592 common stock of SigmaTron	$	15,976,295
Fair value of consideration transferred		15,976,295
Secured Promissory Notes		1,380,173
Fair value of SigmaTron's equity interest in Wagz held ‎prior to the business combination		6,299,765
	$	23,656,233

The following table presents the purchase price allocation for Wagz. The Company is accounting for the acquisition under the acquisition method and is required to measure identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the acquiree at fair value on the closing date. The fair value of the majority of the assets was determined by a third party valuation firm using management estimates and assumptions including intangible assets of $9,730,000 for patents and $1,230,000 for trade names. The appropriate fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on estimates and assumptions.

Note J – Acquisition – Continued

The excess consideration was recorded as goodwill of $13,320,534, all of which is non-deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill represents future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified including workforce additions, growth opportunities, and increased presence in the Pet Tech market. The recorded goodwill has been assigned to the Pet Tech reportable segment.

Cash	$	508,274
Working capital		224,046
Property, plant and equipment		201,839
Acquired intangible assets		10,960,000
Right-of-use operating lease assets		647,076
Other assets		6,000
Operating lease obligations		(647,077)
Deferred tax liability		(215,000)
Other liabilities		(1,349,459)
Goodwill		13,320,534
Fair value of purchase consideration	$	23,656,233

The intangible assets acquired in the Wagz acquisition consisted of the following:

			Expected Weighted
			Amortization
		Fair Value	Period
Trade name	$	1,230,000	20 years
Patents		9,730,000	18 years
	$	10,960,000

The fair value recorded as of April 30, 2022 is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represents a fair value measurement categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the acquired trade names and patents was determined using the relief from royalty method, which is a risk-adjusted discounted cash flow approach. The relief from royalty method values an intangible asset by estimating the royalties saved through ownership of the asset. The relief from royalty method requires identifying the future revenue that would be generated by the intangible asset, multiplying it by a royalty rate deemed to be avoided through ownership of the asset and discounting the projected royalty savings amounts back to the acquisition date using the internal rate of return.

Overview:

The Company operates in two reportable segments as an independent provider of EMS, and as a provider of products to the Pet Tech market.

The EMS segment includes printed circuit board assemblies, electro-mechanical subassemblies and completely assembled (box-build) electronic products.

In connection with the production of assembled products, the EMS segment provides services to its customers, including (1) automatic and manual assembly and testing of products; (2) material sourcing and procurement; (3) manufacturing and test engineering support; (4) design services; (5) warehousing and distribution services; (6) assistance in obtaining product approval from governmental and other regulatory bodies and (7) compliance reporting. The Company provides these services through an international network of facilities located in the United States, Mexico, China, Vietnam and Taiwan.

The Pet Tech reportable segment offers electronic products such as the Freedom Smart Dog Collar™, a wireless geo-mapped fence and wellness system, along with apparel and accessories. The EMS segment produces the Freedom Smart Dog Collar™ sold by the Pet Tech segment.

The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for components used in the Company’s production process. Certain of these components are available only from single-sources or a limited number of suppliers. In addition, a customer’s specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single-source or a small number of suppliers. The loss of any such suppliers could have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. Further, the Company could operate at a cost disadvantage compared to competitors who have greater direct buying power from suppliers. The Company does not enter into long-term purchase agreements with major or single-source suppliers. The Company believes that short-term purchase orders with its suppliers provides flexibility, given that the Company’s orders are based on the changing needs of its customers.

Sales can be an unreliable indicator of the Company’s financial performance. Sales levels can vary considerably among customers and products depending on the type of services (turnkey versus consignment) rendered by the Company and the demand by customers. Consignment orders require the Company to perform manufacturing services on components and other materials supplied by a customer, and the Company charges only for its labor, overhead and manufacturing costs, plus a profit. In the case of turnkey orders, the Company provides, in addition to manufacturing services, the components and other materials used in assembly. Turnkey contracts, in general, have a higher dollar volume of sales for each given assembly, owing to inclusion of the cost of components and other materials in net sales and cost of goods sold. Variations in the number of turnkey orders compared to consignment orders can lead to significant fluctuations in the Company’s revenue and gross margin levels. Consignment orders accounted for less than 1% of the Company’s revenues for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021.

The Company’s international footprint provides our customers with flexibility within the Company to manufacture in China, Mexico, Vietnam or the U.S. We believe this strategy will continue to serve the Company well as its customers continuously evaluate their supply chain strategies.

On December 31, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of Wagz under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 19, 2021, as amended by the First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 7, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”). Wagz has

SigmaTron International, Inc.

developed and brought to market a high tech pet collar and has multiple other products in development. Wagz is an IoT company which both owns intellectual property and secures recurring revenue through subscriptions for its services. The results of Wagz have been included in the Company's consolidated financial results since the date of acquisition. The total consideration for the acquisition of Wagz was $23,656,233. The Company began its Pet Tech operations after the December 2021 acquisition of Wagz.

The Company reported a solid quarter, despite the challenges presented by the ongoing global supply chain issues.  Pre-tax income for the three months ended October 31, 2022 was $2,127,839, which included an expected pre-tax loss of $2,731,126 for Wagz, our Pet Tech segment IoT start-up business acquired in December 2021. Pre-tax income for the three months ended October 31, 2021 was $4,663,717. The Company recorded revenue of $108,676,743 and $100,216,614 in the three month periods ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively.

The backlog for the EMS segment remains strong and growing for the three month period ending October 31, 2022. Despite the continuing challenges in the electronic component marketplace, sales are running at record levels for the Company. The Company continues to see strength in the industrial marketplace. Existing customers are slowly launching new products and the Company has several new opportunities that look promising. Unfortunately, it sees no end in sight to the supply chain challenges that we have been dealing with for at least 18 months and few of the semiconductor companies are suggesting otherwise. The challenges will certainly continue for the balance of fiscal 2023, based on what is known at this time. This causes inventory to grow significantly and puts pressure on cash flow. It also leads to manufacturing inefficiencies due to the uncertainty of when parts will be received.

The Pet Tech segment, had a $2,731,126 pre-tax loss for the three month period ending October 31, 2022. The segment continues to make progress on the design and engineering front with the performance of the Freedom Smart Dog Collar™, as well as a new product that will be introduced early next year. It is also working on related products, with several large OEM’s and interest in the Pet Tech industry remains strong.

The Company reported a solid six month period ending October 31, 2022, despite the challenges presented by the ongoing global supply chain issues.  Pre-tax income for the six month period ended October 31, 2022 was $4,033,914, which included an expected pre-tax loss of $4,954,687 for Wagz, our Pet Tech segment IoT start-up business acquired in December 2021. Pre-tax income for the six month period ended October 31, 2021 was $14,217,378, which included forgiveness of the Company’s Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program Loan in the amount of $6,282,973. The Company recorded revenue of $214,249,599 and $185,956,048 in the six month periods ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively.

The backlog for the EMS segment remains strong and growing for the six month period ending October 31, 2022. Despite the continuing challenges in the electronic component marketplace, sales are running at record levels for the Company. The Company continues to see strength in the industrial marketplace. Existing customers are slowly launching new products and the Company has several new opportunities that look promising.

Net Sales

Net sales increased $8,460,129, or 8.4%, to $108,676,743 for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to $100,216,614 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The Federal Reserve has raised interest rates several times during the current fiscal quarter, which has negatively affected customer demand in the consumer electronics markets, but has not had the same effect in the industrial electronics and medical/life science markets. As a result, the Company’s sales increased for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, in industrial electronics and medical/life science compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in sales was partially offset by a decrease in sales in consumer electronics. Net sales were higher due to certain customer price increases implemented as a result of increased raw material and other operating costs that occurred during the three month period ended October 31, 2022, as compared to the same period last fiscal year.

Costs of products sold

Cost of products sold increased $6,923,702, or 7.8%, to $95,362,730 (87.7% of net sales) for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to $88,439,028 (88.2% of net sales) for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The slight decrease in cost of products sold as a percentage of sales is due to customer price increases, partially offset with higher material, logistics and other operating

34

costs as a result of higher sales volumes and the impact of global supply chain disruptions that caused factory inefficiencies. Labor costs and other manufacturing costs were higher for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, than in the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to inflationary pressures.

Gross profit

Gross profit margin was 12.3% of net sales, for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to 11.8% for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in gross margins as a percentage of sales is due to customer price increases, partially offset with high material, labor and other manufacturing costs during the second quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

Selling and administrative expenses

Selling and administrative expenses increased $2,439,401, or 35.8% to $9,245,157 (8.5% of net sales) for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to $6,805,756 (6.8% of net sales) for the same period in the prior fiscal year. Of the $2,439,401 increase, $2,739,060 relates to the Wagz business, acquired on December 31, 2021, and therefore, comparable information is not available for the three months ended October 31, 2021. In addition, selling and administrative expenses increased for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, due to an increase in financing fees and higher costs due to inflationary pressures, which was partially offset with a decrease in bonus expense.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net, increased to $1,976,831 for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to $344,675 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase relates to higher average debt levels as well as increased interest rates for the three month period ended October 31, 2022.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense decreased $257,545 to $1,255,967 for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to $1,513,512 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The effective tax rate increased to 59.03% for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to 32.45% for the same period in the prior fiscal year due primarily to an increase in valuation allowance during the three month period ended October 31, 2022.

Net Income

Net income decreased $2,278,333, or 72.3%, to $871,872 for the three month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to $3,150,205 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The decreased net income primarily relates to losses incurred for the Pet Tech segment (acquired December 31, 2021), and higher interest expense due to higher average debt levels and increased interest rates during the second quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

The Federal Reserve has raised interest rates several times during the first six months of fiscal 2023, which has negatively affected customer demand in the consumer electronics markets, but has not had the same effect in the industrial electronics and medical/life science markets. As a result, the Company’s sales increased for the six month period ended October 31, 2022, in industrial electronics and medical/life science compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in sales was partially offset by a

Selling and administrative expenses

Selling and administrative expenses increased $5,189,604, or 40.2% to $18,106,375 (8.5% of net sales) for the six month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to $12,916,771 (6.9% of net sales) for the same period in the prior fiscal year. Of the $5,189,604 increase, $5,070,436 relates to the Wagz business, acquired on December 31, 2021, and therefore, comparable information is not available for the six months ended October 31, 2021. In addition, selling and administrative expenses increased for the six month period ended October 31, 2022, due to an increase in other professional fees related to the new and amended credit agreements finalized during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, an increase in financing fees and higher costs due to inflationary pressures, which was partially offset with a decrease in bonus expense.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net, increased to $2,930,389 for the six month period ended October 31, 2022, compared to $582,591 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase relates to higher average debt levels as well as increased interest rates for the six month period ended October 31, 2022.

Financing Summary.

Notes Payable – Secured lenders

On January 29, 2021, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Lender”), pursuant to which Lender provided the Company with a secured credit facility consisting of a revolving loan facility and a term loan facility (collectively, the “Facility”).

On July 18, 2022, SigmaTron, Wagz and Lender amended and restated the Agreement by entering into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as so amended and restated, the “Credit Agreement”). The Facility, as amended, allows the Company to borrow on a revolving basis up to the lesser of (i) $70,000,000 or (ii) an amount equal to a percentage of the eligible receivable borrowing base plus a percentage of the inventory borrowing base minus any reserves established by Lender. The maturity date of the Facility was extended to July 18, 2027. Deferred financing costs of $296,802 and $128,733 were capitalized during the six month period ended October 31, 2022 and during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022, respectively, which are amortized over the term of the Agreement. As of October 31, 2022, there was $48,916,746 outstanding and $19,150,939 of unused availability under the revolving Facility compared to an outstanding balance of $51,392,158 and $5,691,855 of unused availability at April 30, 2022. As of October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, the unamortized amount offset against outstanding debt was $604,006 and $393,503, respectively.

Under the Credit Agreement, a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (“FCCR”) financial covenant of 1.10x is applicable only during an FCCR trigger period which occurs when (a) commencing on the Effective Date and ending when the Term Loan Obligations have been Paid in Full and (b) following the Payment in Full of the Term Loan Obligations, (i) an event of default (as defined in the Agreement) has occurred and is continuing, and Lender has elected to impose a FCCR trigger period upon notice to the Company or (ii) availability falls below the greater of (a) 10% of the revolving commitment and (b) the outstanding principal amount of the term loans. In addition, the Credit Agreement imposes a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a leverage ratio of Total Debt to EBITDA (each as defined in the Credit Agreement) for any twelve month period not to exceed a certain amount for each fiscal quarter through the maturity of the revolving Facility, which

43

SigmaTron International, Inc.

ratio (a) ranges from 5.75-to-1 for the fiscal quarter ending on October 31, 2022 to 3.00-to-1 for the fiscal quarter ending on July 31, 2026 (if the Term Loan Borrowing Base Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than or equal to 1.50-to-1) and (b) ranges from 5.75-to-1 for the fiscal quarter ending on October 31, 2022 to 4.00-to-1 for the fiscal quarter ending on July 18, 2027 (if the Term Loan Borrowing Base Coverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 1.50-to-1).

In connection with the closing of the Credit Agreement, Lender and TCW Asset Management Company LLC, as administrative agent under the Term Loan Agreement (as defined below), entered into the Intercreditor Agreement, dated July 18, 2022, and acknowledged by SigmaTron and Wagz (the “ICA”), to set forth and govern the lenders’ respective lien priorities, rights and remedies under the Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement.

The Facility under the Credit Agreement is secured by: (a) a first priority security interest in SigmaTron’s and Wagz’s (i) accounts and inventory (excluding Term Priority Mexican Inventory (as defined in the ICA) and certain inventory in transit, (ii) deposit accounts, (iii) proceeds of business interruption insurance that constitute ABL BI Insurance Share (as defined in the ICA), (iv) certain other property, including payment intangibles, instruments, equipment, software and hardware and similar systems, books and records, to the extent related to the foregoing, and (v) all proceeds of the foregoing, in each case, now owned or hereafter acquired (collectively, the “ABL Priority Collateral”); and (b) a second priority security interest in Term Priority Collateral (as defined below) other than (i) real estate and (ii) the equity interests of SigmaTron’s foreign subsidiaries (unless such a pledge is requested by Lender).

On July 18, 2022, SigmaTron, Wagz and TCW Asset Management Company LLC, as administrative agent, and other Lenders party thereto (collectively, “TCW”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which TCW made a term loan to the Company in the principal amount of $40,000,000 (the “TCW Term Loan”). The TCW Term Loan bears interest at a rate per annum based on SOFR, plus the Applicable Margin of 7.50% (each as defined in the Term Loan Agreement). The TCW Term Loan has a SOFR floor of 1.00%. The maturity date of the TCW Term Loan is July 18, 2027. The amount outstanding as of October 31, 2022, was $39,750,000. Deferred financing costs of $1,191,099 were capitalized during the six month period ended October 31, 2022. As of October 31, 2022, the unamortized amount offset against outstanding debt was $1,115,453.

The Term Loan Agreement imposes financial covenants, including covenants requiring the Company to maintain a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) of 1.10-to-1 and maintain the same leverage ratio of Total Debt to EBITDA as described above under the Credit Agreement. The Company is required to make quarterly repayments of the principal amount of the TCW Term Loan in amounts equal to $250,000 per fiscal quarter for the quarters beginning October 31, 2022 and $500,000 per fiscal quarter for quarters beginning October 31, 2024. The Term Loan Agreement also requires mandatory annual repayments equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement).

The TCW Term Loan is secured by: (a) a first priority security interest in all property of SigmaTron and Wagz that does not constitute ABL Priority Collateral, which includes: (i) SigmaTron’s and Wagz’s real estate other than SigmaTron’s Del Rio, Texas, warehouses, (ii) SigmaTron’s and Wagz’s machinery, equipment and fixtures (but excluding ABL Priority Equipment (as defined in the ICA)), (iii) the Term Priority Mexican Inventory (as defined in the ICA), (iv) SigmaTron’s stock in its direct and indirect subsidiaries, (v) SigmaTron’s and Wagz’s general intangibles (excluding any that constitute ABL Priority Collateral), goodwill and intellectual property, (vi) the proceeds of business interruption insurance that constitute Term BI Insurance Share (as defined in the ICA), (vii) tax

refunds, and (viii) all proceeds thereof, in each case, now owned or hereafter acquired (collectively, the “Term Priority Collateral”); and (b) a second priority security interest in all collateral that constitutes ABL Priority Collateral. Also, SigmaTron’s three Mexican subsidiaries pledged all of their assets as security for the TCW Term Loan.

On July 18, 2022, a portion of the proceeds of the TCW Term Loan was used to pay in full the term loan principal amount of $5,000,000 (the “FILO Term Loan”) that Lender extended to the Company under the Agreement on April 25, 2022.

The PPP Loan was scheduled to mature on April 23, 2022. The Company was notified of the forgiveness of the PPP Loan by the SBA on July 9, 2021 and all principal and accrued interest were forgiven. The accounting for the forgiveness is reflected in the Company’s Statements of Income, in the six months ended October 31, 2021, as a non-cash gain upon extinguishment of long-term debt.

On March 15, 2019, the Company’s wholly-owned foreign enterprise, Wujiang SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., entered into a credit facility with China Construction Bank. On January 26, 2021, the agreement was amended and terminated on January 6, 2022. On January 17, 2022, the agreement was renewed, and is scheduled to expire on December 23, 2022. Under the agreement Wujiang SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. can borrow up to 9,000,000 Renminbi, approximately $1,254,000 as of October 31, 2022, and the facility is collateralized by Wujiang SigmaTron Electronics Co., Ltd.’s manufacturing building. Interest is payable monthly and the facility bears a fixed interest rate of 3.8% per annum. There was no outstanding balance under the facility at October 31, 2022 compared to an outstanding balance of $438,219 at April 30, 2022.

Notes Payable – Buildings

The Facility also included two term loans, in the aggregate principal amount of $6,500,000. A final aggregate payment of approximately $4,368,444 was due on or before January 29, 2026. On July 18, 2022, a portion of the proceeds of the TCW Term Loan was used to pay in full both term loans extended by Lender. The outstanding balance was $0 at October 31, 2022 compared to an outstanding balance of $5,994,445 at April 30, 2022.

The note requires the Company to pay monthly installment payments in the amount of $6,103. Interest accrues at a fixed rate of 5.75% per year until March 3, 2025, and adjusts thereafter, on an annual basis, equal to 1.0% over the Prime Rate as published by The Wall Street Journal. The note is payable over a 120 month period. The outstanding balance was $441,361 and $464,895 at October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, respectively.

Other

The Company provides funds for salaries, wages, overhead and capital expenditure items as necessary to operate its wholly-owned Mexican, Vietnamese and Chinese subsidiaries and the Taiwan IPO. The Company provides funding in U.S. Dollars, which are exchanged for Pesos, Dong, Renminbi, and New Taiwan dollars. The fluctuation of currencies from time to time, without an equal or greater increase in inflation, could have a material impact on the financial results of the Company. The impact of currency fluctuations for the six month period ended October 31, 2022, resulted in net foreign currency transaction losses of $797,459 compared to net foreign currency losses of approximately $121,400 for the same period in the prior year. During the six months of fiscal year 2023, the Company paid approximately $33,630,000 to its foreign subsidiaries for manufacturing services. All intercompany balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The Company has not changed its plans to indefinitely reinvest the earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. The cumulative amount of unremitted earnings for which U.S. income taxes have not been recorded is $11,255,000 as of October 31, 2022.

Conditions surrounding COVID-19 change rapidly and additional impacts of which the Company is not currently aware may arise. Based on past performance and current expectations, the Company believes that the existing sources of liquidity, including current cash, will provide sufficient resources to meet known capital requirements and working capital needs through the next twelve months.

The impact of inflation and the continuing global supply chain disruptions in the electronic component marketplace have been challenging. Prices for raw materials necessary for production have fluctuated significantly in the past and the Company is currently experiencing upward pricing pressure on raw materials. The Company anticipates supply chain and raw material price volatility will continue during fiscal 2023.
