Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of results for the interim period have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 3, 2020. All references to years in these financial statements are to fiscal years.

COVID-19 Impacts On Our Business

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic. In response, we established two clear priorities; first, the health and safety of our employees and their families and, second, continuing to meet the needs of our customers and secure the financial well-being of the Company by implementing short-term actions to maintain liquidity. While substantially all of our operations and production activities have, to-date, remained operational as many are considered essential and exempt from closure directives, the pandemic did have a material impact on our financial statements in the last six months of the fiscal year ended October 3, 2020. We recorded impairment charges on long-lived assets and recorded inventory reserves for businesses impacted by lower sales. We continue to monitor the impacts of COVID-19 on the fair value of assets. While we do not currently anticipate any additional material impairments on assets as a result of COVID-19, future changes in sales, earnings and cash flows related to long-lived assets to be held and used and goodwill could cause these assets to become impaired. COVID-19 is discussed in more detail throughout “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year's presentation. Management does not consider the amounts reclassified to be material.

Description

Financial Statement Effect or Other Significant Matters

ASU no. 2016-13 Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

The standard replaces the incurred loss model with the current expected credit loss (CECL) model to estimate credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. The CECL model requires a Company to estimate credit losses expected over the life of the financial assets based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The provisions of the standard are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment requires a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption.

We adopted this standard using a modified retrospective approach. Based on immateriality, there was no cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of period of adoption. Upon adoption, we now calculate current expected credits losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost. We utilize factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of accounts receivable, current economic conditions and reasonable forecasted financial information in order to determine expected credit losses for these assets. We are not subject to material receivable credit risk given a significant portion of our sales are generated from contracts with the U.S. Government, prime contractors to the U.S. Government and reputable Fortune 500 companies. The impact of this standard was immaterial to financial statements, related disclosures and internal controls.

Note 2 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We recognize revenue from contracts with customers using the five-step model prescribed in ASC 606. The first step is identifying the contract. The identification of a contract with a customer requires an assessment of each party’s rights and obligations regarding the products or services to be transferred, including an evaluation of termination clauses and presently enforceable rights and obligations. Each party’s rights and obligations and the associated terms and conditions are typically determined in purchase orders. For sales that are governed by master supply agreements under which provisions define specific program requirements, purchase orders are issued under these agreements to reflect presently enforceable rights and obligations for the units of products and services being purchased.

Contracts are sometimes modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. When this occurs, we assess the modification as prescribed in ASC 606 and determine whether the existing contract needs to be modified (and revenue cumulatively caught up), whether the existing contract needs to be terminated and a new contract needs to be created, or whether the existing contract remains and a new contract needs to be created. This is determined based on the rights and obligations within the modification as well as the associated transaction price.

The next step is identifying the performance obligations. A performance obligation is a promise to transfer goods or services to a customer that is distinct in the context of the contract, as defined by ASC 606. We identify a performance obligation for each promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. As part of our assessment, we consider all goods and/or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The products and services in our contracts are typically not distinct from one another due to their complexity and reliance on each other or, in many cases, we provide a significant integration service. Accordingly, many of our contracts are accounted for as one performance obligation. In limited cases, our contracts have more than one distinct performance obligation, which occurs when we perform activities that are not highly complex or interrelated or involve different product life cycles. Warranties are provided on certain contracts, but do not typically provide for services beyond standard assurances and are therefore not distinct performance obligations under ASC 606.

The third step is determining the transaction price, which represents the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to receive from a customer in exchange for providing the goods or services. There are times when this consideration is variable, for example a volume discount, and must be estimated. Sales, use, value-added, and excise taxes are excluded from the transaction price, where applicable.

The fourth step is allocating the transaction price. The transaction price must be allocated to the performance obligations identified in the contract based on relative stand-alone selling prices when available, or an estimate for each distinct good or service in the contract when standalone prices are not available. Our contracts with customers generally require payment under normal commercial terms after delivery. Payment terms are typically within 30 to 60 days of delivery. The timing of satisfaction of our performance obligations does not significantly vary from the typical timing of payment.

Table of Contents

The final step is the recognition of revenue. We recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. ASC 606 provides guidance to help determine if we are satisfying the performance obligation at a point in time or over time. In determining when performance obligations are satisfied, we consider factors such as contract terms, payment terms and whether there is an alternative use of the product or service. In essence, we recognize revenue when or as control of the promised goods or services transfer to the customer.

Under ASC 606, revenue recognized over time using an input method that uses costs incurred to date to measure progress toward completion ("cost-to-cost") was 63% and 63% and for the three and six months ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021. The over time method of revenue recognition is predominantly used in Aircraft Controls and Space and Defense Controls. We use this method for U.S. Government contracts and repair and overhaul arrangements as we are creating or enhancing assets that the customer controls as the assets are being created or enhanced. In addition, many of our large commercial contracts qualify for over-time accounting as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Our over-time contracts are primarily firm fixed price.

Revenue is recognized on contracts using the cost-to-cost method of accounting as work progresses toward completion as determined by the ratio of cumulative costs incurred to date to estimated total contract costs at completion, multiplied by the total estimated contract revenue, less cumulative revenue recognized in prior periods. We believe that cumulative costs incurred to date as a percentage of estimated total contract costs at completion is an appropriate measure of progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations as this measure most accurately depicts the progress of our work and transfer of control to our customers. Changes in estimates affecting sales, costs and profits are recognized in the period in which the change becomes known using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting, resulting in the cumulative effect of changes reflected in the period. Estimates are reviewed and updated quarterly for substantially all contracts. For the three and six months ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021 ~~and December 28, 2019~~ we recognized additional revenue of $10,653 and $12,535, respectively for adjustments made to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods. For the three and six months ended March 28, 2020 we recognized lower revenues of ~~$1,882~~$4,941 and ~~$14,619,~~higher revenues of $9,678, respectively for adjustments made to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods.

Contract costs include only allocable, allowable and reasonable costs which are included in cost of sales when incurred. For applicable U.S. Government contracts, contract costs are determined in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations and the related Cost Accounting Standards. The nature of these costs includes development engineering costs and product manufacturing costs such as direct material, direct labor, other direct costs and indirect overhead costs. Contract profit is recorded as a result of the revenue recognized less costs incurred in any reporting period. Variable consideration and contract modifications, such as performance incentives, penalties, contract claims or change orders are considered in estimating revenues, costs and profits when they can be reliably estimated and realization is considered probable. Revenue recognized on contracts for unresolved claims or unapproved contract change orders was not material ~~for~~for the three and six months ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021.

As of ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, we had contract reserves of ~~$70,807.~~ $68,491. For contracts with anticipated losses at completion, a provision for the entire amount of the estimated remaining loss is charged against income in the period in which the loss becomes known. Contract losses are determined considering all direct and indirect contract costs, exclusive of any selling, general or administrative cost allocations that are treated as period expenses. Loss reserves are more common on firm fixed-price contracts that involve, to varying degrees, the design and development of new and unique controls or control systems to meet the customers’ specifications. In accordance with ASC 606, we calculate contract losses at the contract level, versus the performance obligation level. Recall reserves are recorded when additional work is needed on completed products for them to meet contract specifications. Contract-related loss reserves are recorded for the additional work needed on completed and delivered products in order for them to meet contract specifications.

Table of Contents

Revenue recognized at the point in time control was transferred to the customer was 37% and 37%, respectively for the three and six months ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021. This method of revenue recognition is used most frequently in Industrial Systems. We use this method for commercial contracts in which the asset being created has an alternative use. We determine the point in time control transfers to the customer by weighing the five indicators provided by ASC 606 - the entity has a present right to payment; the customer has legal title; the customer has physical possession; the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership; and the customer has accepted the asset. When control has transferred to the customer, profit is generated as cost of sales is recorded and as revenue is recognized. Inventory costs include all product manufacturing costs such as direct material, direct labor, other direct costs and indirect overhead cost allocations. Shipping and handling costs are considered costs to fulfill a contract and not considered performance obligations. They are included in cost of sales as incurred.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Unbilled receivables (contract assets) primarily represent revenues recognized for performance obligations that have been satisfied but for which amounts have not been billed. These are included as Receivables on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Contract advances (contract liabilities) relate to payments received from customers in advance of the satisfaction of performance obligations for a contract. We do not consider contract advances to be significant financing components as the intent of these payments in advance are for reasons other than providing a significant financing benefit and are customary in our industry.

Total contract assets and contract liabilities are as follows:


		January 2, 2021		October 3, 2020			April 3, 2021		October 3, 2020
Unbilled receivables	Unbilled receivables	$	490,297	$	493,734	Unbilled receivables	$	507,774	$	493,734
Contract advances	Contract advances	234,480		203,338		Contract advances	256,080		203,338
Net contract assets	Net contract assets	$	255,817	$	290,396	Net contract assets	$	251,694	$	290,396

The ~~decrease~~increase in contract assets reflects the net impact of ~~billings recorded in excess~~billing less than the amount of revenue recognized during the period. The increase in contract liabilities reflects the net impact of additional ~~deferred revenues~~contract advances recorded in excess of revenue recognized during the period. For the three and six months ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, we recognized $~~57,955~~40,144 and $98,099 of revenue, respectively, that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) was ~~$4,741,532.~~approximately $4,600,000. We expect to recognize approximately ~~40% of~~41% of that amount as sales over the next twelve months and the balance thereafter.

Disaggregation of Revenue

See Note 19, Segments, for disclosures related to disaggregation of revenue.

Note 3 - Acquisitions and Divestitures

On December 18, 2020, we acquired Genesys Aerosystems Group, Inc. (Genesys), headquartered in Mineral Wells, Texas for a purchase price of ~~$77,708,~~$77,600, net of acquired cash. Genesys designs and manufactures a full suite of electronic flight instrument systems and autopilot solutions. This operation is included in our Aircraft Controls segment. The purchase price allocation is subject to adjustments as we obtain additional information for our estimates during the measurement period.

In the first quarter of 2021, we sold a non-core business in our Aircraft Controls segment for $2,081 in net consideration and recorded a loss in other income of ~~$442.~~$683.

On November 28, 2019, we acquired Gesellschaft für Antriebstechnik mbH and GAT Inc. (GAT), headquartered in Geisenheim, Germany for a purchase price of $54,265, net of acquired cash. GAT designs and manufactures high-end fluid rotating unions and slip rings. This operation is included in our Industrial Systems segment.

In the first quarter of 2020, we sold a non-core business of our Industrial Systems segment for $1,775 in net consideration and recorded a gain in other income of $169.

We securitize certain trade receivables in transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowings (Securitization Program). We maintain a subordinated interest in a portion of the pool of trade receivables that are securitized. The retained interest, which is included in Receivables in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, is recorded at fair value, which approximates the total amount of the designated pool of accounts receivable. Refer to Note 9, Indebtedness, for additional disclosures related to the Securitization Program.

The allowance for credit losses is based on our assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The allowance is determined by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable, current economic conditions and reasonable forecasted financial information that may affect a customer’s ability to pay.

Note 7 - Leases

We lease certain manufacturing facilities, office space and machinery and equipment globally. At inception we evaluate whether a contractual arrangement contains a lease. Specifically, we consider whether we control the underlying asset and have the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits or outputs from the asset. If the contractual arrangement contains a lease, we then determine the classification of the lease, operating or finance, using the classification criteria described in ASC 842. We then determine the term of the lease based on terms and conditions of the contractual arrangement, including whether the options to extend or terminate the lease are reasonably certain to be exercised. We have elected to not separate lease components from non-lease components, such as common area maintenance charges and instead, account for the lease and non-lease components as a single component.

Our lease ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and our lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments. Operating lease ROU assets are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Finance lease ROU assets are included in Property, plant and equipment and finance lease liabilities are included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Operating lease cost is included in Cost of sales and Selling, general and administrative on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Finance lease cost is included in Cost of sales, Selling, general and administrative and Interest on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings.

The ROU assets and lease liabilities for both operating and finance leases are recognized as of the commencement date at the net present value of the fixed minimum lease payments over the term of the lease, using the discount rate described below. Variable lease payments are recorded in the period in which the obligation for the payment is incurred. Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are initially measured using the index or rate as of the commencement date of the lease and included in the fixed minimum lease payments. For short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less as of the commencement date, we do not recognize a ROU asset or lease liability on our balance sheet; we recognize expense as the lease payments are made over the lease term.

The discount rate used to calculate the present value of our leases is the rate implicit in lease. If the information necessary to determine the rate implicit in the lease is not available, we use our incremental borrowing rate for collateralized debt, which is determined using our credit rating and other information available as of the lease commencement date.

The components of lease expense were as follows:

Our U.S. revolving credit facility, which matures on October 15, 2024 has a capacity of $1,100,000 and provides an expansion option, which permits us to request an increase of up to $400,000 to the credit facility upon satisfaction of certain conditions. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our U.S. assets. The loan agreement contains various covenants which, among others, specify interest coverage and maximum leverage. We are in compliance with all covenants.

The SECT has a revolving credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $35,000, maturing on July 26, 2022. Interest is based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin. A commitment fee is also charged based on a percentage of the unused amounts available and is not material.

On December 13, 2019, we completed the sale of $500,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior notes due December 15, 2027 with interest paid semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, which commenced on June 15, 2020. The senior notes are unsecured obligations, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries and contain normal incurrence-based covenants and limitations such as the ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, make other restricted payments and investments, create liens and certain corporate acts such as mergers and consolidations. The aggregate net proceeds were used to repay indebtedness under our U.S. revolving credit facility, thereby increasing the unused portion of our U.S. revolving credit facility.

Table of Contents

On December 13, 2019, we issued a notice of redemption to the holders of our 5.25% senior notes due on December 1, 2022, to redeem and retire all of the outstanding notes. The notes were redeemed on January 13, 2020 at 101.313% pursuant to an early redemption right. We redeemed the aggregate principal amount of $300,000 using proceeds drawn from our U.S. revolving credit facility. The associated loss on the redemption includes $3,939 of call premium paid to external bondholders.

The Securitization Program matures on October 29, 2021 and effectively increases our borrowing capacity by up to $80,000. Under the Securitization Program, we sell certain trade receivables and related rights to an affiliate, which in turn sells an undivided variable percentage ownership interest in the trade receivables to a financial institution, while maintaining a subordinated interest in a portion of the pool of trade receivables. Interest for the Securitization Program is based on 30-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin. A commitment fee is also charged based on a percentage of the unused amounts available and is not material. The agreement governing the Securitization Program contains restrictions and covenants which include limitations on the making of certain restricted payments, creation of certain liens, and certain corporate acts such as mergers, consolidations and sale of substantially all assets. The Securitization Program has a minimum borrowing requirement equal to the lesser of either 80% of our borrowing capacity or 100% of our borrowing base, which is a subset of the trade receivables sold under this agreement. As of ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, our minimum borrowing requirement was ~~$53,280.~~$55,280.

Note 11 - Derivative Financial Instruments

We principally use derivative financial instruments to manage foreign exchange risk related to foreign operations and foreign currency transactions and interest rate risk associated with long-term debt. We enter into derivative financial instruments with a number of major financial institutions to minimize counterparty credit risk.

Derivatives designated as hedging instruments

We use foreign currency contracts as cash flow hedges to effectively fix the exchange rates on future payments and revenue. To mitigate exposure in movements between various currencies, including the Philippine peso and the British pound, ~~and the Czech koruna,~~ we had outstanding foreign currency forwards with notional amounts of ~~$28,357~~$46,053 at ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021. These contracts mature at various times through ~~November 26, 2021.~~February 24, 2023.

We use forward currency contracts to hedge our net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries. As of ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, we had 0 ~~outstanding~~outstanding net investment hedges.

Interest rate swaps are used to adjust the proportion of total debt that is subject to variable and fixed interest rates. The interest rate swaps are designated as hedges of the amount of future cash flows related to interest payments on variable-rate debt that, in combination with the interest payments on the debt, convert a portion of the variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. At ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, we had 0 outstanding interest rate swaps.

These foreign currency contracts, net investment hedges and interest rate swaps are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at fair value and the related gains or losses are deferred in Shareholders’ Equity as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCIL). These deferred gains and losses are reclassified into the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings, as necessary, during the periods in which the related payments or receipts affect earnings. However, to the extent the foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps are not perfectly effective in offsetting the change in the value of the payments and revenue being hedged, the ineffective portion of these contracts is recognized in earnings immediately. Ineffectiveness was not material in the fi~~rst three~~first six months of 2021 or 2020.

Table of Contents

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments

We also have foreign currency exposure on balances, primarily intercompany, that are denominated in foreign currencies and are adjusted to current values using period-end exchange rates. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. To minimize foreign currency exposure, we had foreign currency contracts with notional amounts of ~~$141,712~~$134,119 at ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021. The foreign currency contracts are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at fair value and resulting gains or losses are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. We recorded the following gains or losses on foreign currency contracts which are included in other income or expense and generally offset the gains or losses from the foreign currency adjustments on the intercompany balances that are also included in other income or expense:

Note 12 - Fair Value

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 at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate fair value. The definition of the fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities.

Level 3 – Inputs for which significant valuation assumptions are unobservable in a market and therefore value is based on the best available data, some of which is internally developed and considers risk premiums that a market participant would require.

Our derivatives are valued using various pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses that incorporate observable market data, such as interest rate yield curves and currency rates, and are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

The following table presents the fair values and classification of our financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis, all of which are classified as Level 2.

								Total liabilities	$	1,092	$	414
		Total liabilities	$	190	$	414

Our only financial instrument for which the carrying value differs from its fair value is long-term debt. At ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, the fair value of long-term debt was ~~$997,164~~$979,570 compared to its carrying value of ~~$975,186.~~$976,063. The fair value of long-term debt is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and was estimated based on quoted market prices.

Note 15 - Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021 were 21.6% and ~~December 28, 2019 was 24.9% and 25.2%~~23.1%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021 ~~varies~~ is higher than expected from ~~what would be expected by~~ applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% to earnings before income taxes ~~primarily~~ due to tax on earnings generated outside the U.S., partially offset by the benefit of a curtailment gain associated with the termination of a foreign defined benefit pension plan with no associated tax expense in the second quarter.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended March 28, 2020 was 19.2% and 22.3%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 28, 2020 is lower than expected due to the reduction in tax rate associated with taxes accrued on accumulated earnings in one of our foreign jurisdictions. Additionally, legal entity restructuring resulted in reduced withholding taxes previously accrued in another foreign jurisdiction. The effective tax rate for the six months ended March 28, 2020 is higher than expected due to tax on earnings generated outside the U.S.

Note 20 - Related Party Transactions

John Scannell, Moog's Chairman of the Board and Director and Chief Executive Officer, is a member of the Board of Directors of M&T Bank Corporation and M&T Bank. We currently engage with M&T Bank in the ordinary course of business for various financing activities, all of which were initiated prior to the election of Mr. Scannell to the Board. M&T Bank provides credit extension for routine purchases, which for the three and six months ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021 totaled $3,521 and ~~December~~$6,950, respectively. Credit extension for the three and six months ended March 28, ~~2019~~2020 totaled ~~$3,429~~$4,220 and ~~$4,574,~~$8,794, respectively. At ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, we held outstanding leases with a total original cost of ~~$25,882.~~$26,454. Deposits on our behalf for future equipment leases totaled $1,469 for the three and six months ended April 3, 2021. M&T Bank also maintains an interest of approximately 12% in our U.S. revolving credit facility. Further details of the U.S. revolving credit facility can be found in Note 9, Indebtedness.

Note 21 - Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings. We are not a party to any pending legal proceedings which management believes will result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We are engaged in administrative proceedings with governmental agencies and legal proceedings with governmental agencies and other third parties in the normal course of our business, including litigation under Superfund laws, regarding environmental matters. We believe that adequate reserves have been established for our share of the estimated cost for all currently pending environmental administrative or legal proceedings and do not expect that these environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In the ordinary course of business we could be subject to ongoing claims or disputes from our customers, the ultimate settlement of which could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations. While the receivables and any loss provisions recorded to date reflect management's best estimate of the projected costs to complete a given project, there may still be significant effort required to complete the ultimate deliverable. Future variability in internal cost as well as future profitability is dependent upon a number of factors including deliveries, performance and government budgetary pressures. The inability to achieve a satisfactory contractual solution, further unplanned delays, additional developmental cost growth or variations in any of the estimates used in the existing contract analysis could lead to further loss provisions. Additional losses could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the period in which the loss may be recognized.

We are contingently liable for ~~$39,839~~$32,936 of standby letters of credit issued to third parties on our behalf at ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 3, 2020. All references to years in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are to fiscal years and amounts may differ from reported values due to rounding.

OVERVIEW

We are a worldwide designer, manufacturer and systems integrator of high performance precision motion and fluid controls and control systems for a broad range of applications in aerospace and defense and industrial markets.

Within the aerospace and defense market, our products and systems include:

•Defense market - primary and secondary flight controls for military aircraft, stabilization and automatic ammunition loading controls for armored combat vehicles, tactical and strategic missile steering controls and gun aiming controls.

•Commercial aircraft market - primary and secondary flight controls for commercial aircraft.

•Commercial space market - satellite positioning controls and thrust vector controls for space launch vehicles.

In the industrial market, our products are used in a wide range of applications including:

•Industrial automation market - components and systems for injection and blow molding machinery, heavy industry applications for steel and aluminum production, metal forming presses, flight simulation motion control systems and material and automotive structural and fatigue testing systems.

•Medical market - components and systems for enteral clinical nutrition and infusion therapy pumps, CT scan medical equipment, ultrasonic sensors and surgical handpieces and sleep apnea equipment.

•Energy market - control and safety components for steam and gas power generation turbines and oil and gas exploration components and systems.

We operate under three segments, Aircraft Controls, Space and Defense Controls and Industrial Systems. Our principal manufacturing facilities are located in the United States, Philippines, United Kingdom, Germany, Czech Republic, Italy, Costa Rica, China, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Japan, Canada, India and Lithuania.

Under ASC 606, 63% of revenue was recognized over time for the quarter ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, using the cost-to-cost method of accounting. The over-time method of revenue recognition is predominantly used in Aircraft Controls and Space and Defense Controls. We use this method for U.S. Government contracts and repair and overhaul arrangements as we are creating or enhancing assets that the customer controls. In addition, many of our large commercial contracts qualify for over-time accounting as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

For the quarter ended ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, 37% of revenue was recognized at the point in time control transferred to the customer. This method of revenue recognition is used most frequently in Industrial Systems. We use this method for commercial contracts in which the asset being created has an alternative use. We determine the point in time control transfers to the customer by weighing the five indicators provided by ASC 606. When control has transferred to the customer, profit is generated as cost of sales is recorded and as revenue is recognized.

We concentrate on providing our customers with products designed and manufactured to the highest quality standards. Our technical experts work collaboratively around the world, delivering capabilities for mission-critical solutions. These core operational principles are necessary as our products are applied in demanding applications, "When Performance Really Matters®." By capitalizing on these core foundational strengths, we believe we have achieved a leadership position in the high performance, precision controls market. Additionally, these strengths yield a broad control product portfolio, across a diverse base of customers and end markets.

By focusing on customer intimacy and commitment to solving our customers' most demanding technical problems, we have been able to expand our control product franchise to multiple markets; organically growing from a high-performance components manufacturer to a high-performance systems designer, manufacturer and systems integrator. In addition, we continue expanding our content positions on our current platforms, seeking to be the dominant supplier in the niche markets we serve. We also look for innovation in all aspects of our business, employing new technologies to improve productivity and operational performance.

Our fundamental long-term strategies to achieve our goals center around talent, lean and innovation and include:

•a strong leadership team that has positioned the Company for growth,

•utilizing our global capabilities and strong engineering heritage to innovate,

•maintaining our technological excellence by solving our customers’ most demanding technical problems in applications "When Performance Really Matters®,"

•continuing to invest in talent development to strengthen employee performance, and

•maximizing customer value by implementing lean enterprise principles.

These activities will help us achieve our financial objective of increasing shareholder value with sustainable competitive advantages across our segments. In doing so, we expect to maintain a balanced, diversified portfolio in terms of markets served, product applications, customer base and geographic presence.

We focus on improving shareholder value through strategic revenue growth, both organic and acquired, through improving operating efficiencies and manufacturing initiatives and through utilizing low cost manufacturing facilities without compromising quality. Historically, we have taken a balanced approach to capital deployment in order to maximize shareholder returns over the long-term. Our activities have included strategic acquisitions, share buybacks and dividend payments. As we ~~progress in~~work through the current COVID-19 environment, we believe we are well positioned to invest in our business and therefore have returned to a balanced capital deployment strategy. We will organically invest in our operations and explore opportunities to make strategic acquisitions and return capital to shareholders.

Acquisitions ~~Divestitures~~ and ~~Equity Method Investments~~Divestitures

All of our acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method and, accordingly, the operating results for the acquired companies are included in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings from the respective dates of acquisition. Under purchase accounting, we record assets and liabilities at fair value and such amounts are reflected in the respective captions on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The purchase price described for each acquisition below is net of any cash acquired, includes debt issued or assumed and the fair value of contingent consideration.

On December 18, 2020, we acquired Genesys Aerosystems Group, Inc. (Genesys), headquartered in Mineral Wells, Texas for a purchase price of $78 million, net of acquired cash. Genesys designs and manufactures a full suite of electronic flight instrument systems and autopilot solutions. This operation is included in our Aircraft Controls segment. The purchase price allocation is subject to adjustments as we obtain additional information for our estimates during the measurement period.

In the first quarter of 2021, we sold a non-core business in our Aircraft Controls segment for $2 million in net consideration and recorded a minimal loss in other income.

On November 28, 2019, we acquired Gesellschaft für Antriebstechnik mbH and GAT Inc. (GAT), headquartered in Geisenheim, Germany for a purchase price of $54 million, net of acquired cash. GAT designs and manufactures high-end fluid rotating unions and slip rings. This operation is included in our Industrial Systems segment.

In the first quarter of 2020, we sold a non-core business in our Industrial Systems segment for $2 million in net consideration and recorded a minimal gain in other income.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

On a regular basis, we evaluate the critical accounting policies used to prepare our consolidated financial statements, including revenue recognition on long-term contracts, contract reserves, reserves for inventory valuation, reviews for impairment of goodwill, reviews for impairment of long-lived assets, pension assumptions and income taxes.

COVID-19 IMPACTS ON OUR BUSINESS

The spread of the COVID-19 outbreak has disrupted businesses on a global scale. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization classified the outbreak as a pandemic. As we entered this crisis, the Company established two clear priorities: first and foremost the health and safety of our employees and their families, and second, continuing to meet the needs of our customers and secure the financial well-being of the Company. Substantially all of our operations and production activities have, to-date, remained operational. Many are considered essential and are exempt from closure directives. However, such directives could change at any time. We have implemented changes in our work practices maintaining a safe working environment for production employees at our facilities, while enabling other employees to productively work from home. We will continue to monitor the situation, assessing further possible implications on our operations, supply chain, liquidity, cash flow and customer orders, and will take action in an effort to mitigate any adverse consequences. We believe that our existing financial arrangements, along with our actions to mitigate the business pressures we are facing, will be sufficient to meet our operating ~~needs over the short-term.~~needs. We have available borrowings under short and long-term arrangements that could provide relief should the situation become more stressed.

Recognizing the unprecedented nature, scope and continued uncertainty associated with this global health crisis, the duration and extent of the ongoing impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Our businesses are facing varying levels of pressure depending on the markets they serve. As such, we have suspended our practice of providing detailed guidance for fiscal 2021. However, we expect that COVID-19 will be with us for all of fiscal 2021, and as such, our factories will continue operating with the current work practices and that the majority of our office staff will continue to work remotely. We believe our defense, space and medical markets will remain strong; however, our medical market could soften as the initial surge of demand during the beginning of COVID-19 does not repeat. We do not expect any recovery in our industrial markets from the level of the second half of fiscal 2020. Also, we are working to the production schedules of our major commercial aerospace OEM customers, while recognizing that there remains considerable uncertainty in their outlooks. Additionally, we believe we may see a modest growth in commercial aftermarket demand in the second half of 2021.

Net sales decreased in the second quarter and in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021 compared to the second quarter and the first ~~quarter~~half of 2020 as the impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected our commercial aircraft programs and our legacy industrial ~~automation~~ products. These declines were partially offset by higher ~~demand~~demands for our military aircraft programs and our space programs.

Gross margin decreased slightly in the second quarter and the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021 compared to the ~~first quarter~~same periods of 2020. As a result of the macro-economic conditions from the COVID-19 pandemic, facilities inacross all of our ~~Aircraft Controls and Industrial Systems~~ segments were under-utilized due to ~~significantly~~ lower sales volumes, which negatively impacted gross margin.

Research and development expenses increased slightly across our segments in the second quarter and in the first half of 2021 compared to the same periods of 2020. The incorporation of the Genesys acquisition and higher activity across development programs within Aircraft Controls increased expenses $2 million. Expenses also increased $1 million in both Space and Defense Controls and in Industrial Systems.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales increased in the second quarter and in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021 compared to the ~~first quarter~~same periods of ~~2010,~~2020, as we could not decrease our cost structure at the same rate as our sales decline. ~~Additionally, in the first quarter of 2020, we benefited from favorable timing of administrative expenses which did not repeat in the first quarter of 2021.~~ However, the implementation of cost containment actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic helped to reduce expenses, primarily in Space and Defense Controls and in Industrial Systems.

Interest expense in both the second quarter and first half of 2021 benefited from lower interest rates on outstanding debt.

Other expense in the second quarter of 2021 included a $6 million pension curtailment gain associated with the termination of a foreign pension plan. Other expense in the first half of 2020 includes $7 million of non-service pension expense as well as a $4 million call premium as we redeemed our $300 million aggregate principal 5.25% senior notes.

The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2021 included the benefit from the $6 million pension curtailment gain associated with the termination of a foreign pension plan with no associated tax expense. The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2020 included benefits associated with changes in enacted tax rates and assumptions for withholding taxes on accumulated offshore earnings.

The change in twelve-month backlog at ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021 compared with ~~December~~March 28, ~~2019~~2020 was driven by increases in our ~~defense~~military aircraft and ~~space~~our defense markets. Backlog increased in Aircraft Controls due to additional military development programs and due to the production ramp and associated orders for the F-35 program. Backlog also increased in Space and Defense Controls ~~supporting the expected incremental sales~~driven by higher orders for ~~launch vehicles and satellite programs.~~our new turret program. These increases were partially offset by lower orders in our ~~commercial aircraft customers' responses~~space markets, primarily due to the ~~COVID-19 pandemic as we have lower~~high levels of 2020 orders ~~across all of our OEM programs.~~for launch vehicles not continuing in 2021.

Aircraft Controls' net sales decreased in the second quarter and in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021 compared to ~~first quarter~~the same periods of 2020. The impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected our commercial OEM and aftermarket programs, but were partially offset by higher demand for our military OEM ~~and aftermarket~~ programs.

Across our commercial aircraft programs, the COVID-19 pandemic greatly reduced airline traffic and orders for new aircraft while, concurrently, our airframe customers continued to reduce their production forecasts and burn down their inventory levels. These factors started in the second half of our fiscal 2020. In the ~~first~~second quarter of 2021 compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, our sales declined ~~$75~~$50 million across our commercial OEM programs and ~~$11~~$13 million across our commercial aftermarket programs. Partially offsetting these declines ~~in 2021 compared to 2020~~ was a ~~$31~~$38 million sales increase across our military OEM programs. ~~Higher F-35 activity as the active fleet grew increased OEM sales $17 million. Additionally, work on funded~~Funded military development programs increased sales ~~$11~~$16 million, newly acquired sales from our Genesys acquisition increased sales $8 million and higher activity on the growing active F-35 fleet increased OEM sales ~~for foreign~~$8 million. However, military ~~programs increased $7~~aftermarket sales declined $12 million ~~when~~due, in part, to the timing of F-35 spares orders.

The sales declines in the first half of 2021 compared to the first ~~quarter~~half of ~~2020.~~2020 were largely due to the same factors as the second quarter. Commercial OEM sales declined $124 million and commercial aftermarket sales declined $24 million as the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic affected all of our programs' sales. Somewhat offsetting the declines was a $69 million increase in military OEM programs including funded development programs, the F-35 program, foreign military programs and the newly acquired sales from our Genesys acquisition.

Operating margin decreased in the second quarter and in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021 compared to the ~~first quarter~~same periods of 2020 due mostly to the ~~dramatic decline in~~ sales declines in our commercial aircraft market. In addition, higher operating costs and lower aftermarket sales further reduced operating margins, offsetting the incremental margin associated with higher levels of military sales.

The sales changes in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020 were largely due to the same factors as the second quarter. Sales for our space programs increased $29 million due to increases in launch vehicle programs, integrated space vehicles programs and other development work. Partially offsetting the sales increases was a $14 million sales decline across our defense market. Sales declined $12 million in missile systems due in part to the factors from the second quarter, as well as delays across production programs. ~~Also, security application~~Additionally, sales declined $7$9 million in our security programs due to lower bookings and as COVID-19 pandemic restrictions delayed on-site installations.

The decline in Industrial Systems' net sales in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2021 compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020 was driven by macroeconomic factors onaffecting our energy and simulation and test markets. In the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020, net sales declined across all of our legacy industrial products. Stronger foreign currencies, primarily the Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar, increased sales $7 million and $12 million in the second quarter and in the first half of 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020.

The COVID-19 pandemic, and the associated macroeconomic slowdown and reduced capital investments by our customers, have created productivity and demand challenges. Additionally, with the decline of the global airline market, demand for flight simulation products has weakened. These factors started in the second half of our fiscal 2020. In the ~~first~~second quarter of 2021 compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, sales declined ~~$12~~$9 million in our ~~industrial automation~~energy market due primarily to lower sales for components used in energy exploration and $8generation applications. Sales also declined $6 million in our simulation and test ~~market. Modestly~~market due to lower ~~sales in our energy market for components used in exploration applications offset a slight~~levels of flight simulation business. Partially offsetting these declines was sales growth in our medical ~~markets.~~markets, driven by higher sales volumes for enteral products, and by sales growth in our industrial automation market across several products.

The sales declines in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020 were largely due to the same factors as the second quarter. Sales in our simulation and test market declined $14 million as the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic affected the sales of our flight simulation products. Sales also declined $10 million in our energy market and $7 million in our industrial automation market. For the first half of 2021, sales in our medical market increased $6 million due to higher pump and set sales across our medical devices products.

Operating margin decreased in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021 compared to the first ~~quarter~~half of 2020 due mostly to the ~~dramatic~~ sales ~~decline~~declines in our simulation and test markets and in our industrial automation ~~and simulation and test~~ markets. In addition, factory inefficiencies due to the COVID-19 pandemic across our global footprint further depressed operating margin in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021 compared to the first ~~quarter~~half of 2020. Partially offsetting the margin declines was the implementation of cost containment actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic which reduced expenses.

2021 Outlook – We expect that COVID-19 will be with us for all of fiscal 2021, and as such, our factories will continue operating with the current work practices and that the majority of our office staff will continue to productively work remotely. We believe our military aircraft, space and medical markets will remain strong; however, our medical market will soften as the initial surge of demand during the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic is not expected to repeat. We do not expect any meaningful recovery in our industrial markets from the levels of the second half of fiscal 2020. Also, we are working to the production schedules of our major commercial aerospace OEM customers. We expect operating margin will increase due to the absence of last year's $71 million charges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Net earnings in 2021 will also benefit from the absence of last year's $121 million non-cash pension settlement charge, as well as lower non-operating expenses, but be somewhat offset by a higher effective tax rate. We expect diluted earnings per share will range between $4.80 and $5.20, with a midpoint of $5.00.

2021Outlook for Aircraft Controls– We expect 2021 sales in Aircraft Controls will decline due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our commercial OEM and aftermarket programs. We also expect the high levels of military aftermarket sales in 2020 do not repeat in 2021. Partially offsetting these declines is an expected growth in military OEM sales, primarily related to higher amounts of funded development program sales and F-35 sales. We expect operating margin will increase in 2021 due to the absence of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic related charges and as our operations align with the new, lower, levels of customer demand.

2021Outlook for Space and Defense Controls – We expect 2021 sales in Space and Defense Controls will increase as growth in our space markets offsets a decline in our defense markets. Within our space market, we expect a continuation of the increased government spending on military applications and civil missions. However, within our defense market, we don't expect our missile systems programs and our security programs to recover from the impacts during the first half of 2021. We expect operating margin will decline due to the unfavorable sales mix as compared to the previous year.

2021 Outlook for Industrial Systems – We expect 2021 sales in Industrial Systems will decline due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our simulation and test business and, to a lesser degree, on our medical business. We also expect lower sales in our energy market will be offset by modestly higher industrial automation sales. We expect operating margin will improve due to the absence of last year's COVID-19 pandemic related charges, while declining slightly when compared to 2020's adjusted operating margin of 10.3%, due to lost margin related to the lower sales levels.

Our available borrowing capacity and our cash flow from operations have provided us with the financial resources needed to make organic investments, fund acquisitive growth and return capital to shareholders.

At ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, our cash balances were $9891 million, which were primarily held outside of the U.S. Cash flow from our U.S. operations, together with borrowings on our credit facility, fund on-going activities, debt service requirements and future growth investments.

Operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021 compared to the first ~~quarter~~half of 2020 as cash from working capital offset ~~$12~~$13 million of lower earnings. In the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021, ~~receivables activity provided~~cash from inventories improved $59 million, primarily in our Aircraft Controls and Space and Defense Controls segments. ~~$24 million more cash, driven primarily by the continued strong cash receipts associated with U.S. government defense contracts.~~ Also, accounts payable used ~~$21~~$10 million less cash than a year ago, as we have lower amounts of vendor payments. Additionally, customer advances provided $5 million more cash ~~used~~than a year ago, driven by ~~inventory improved $9 million, primarily in our Space and Defense Controls and Aircraft Controls segments.~~the timing of receipts on various defense programs.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE AND RESOURCES

We maintain bank credit facilities to fund our short and long-term capital requirements, including acquisitions. From time to time, we also sell debt and equity securities to fund acquisitions or take advantage of favorable market conditions.

Our U.S. revolving credit facility, which matures on October 15, 2024 has a capacity of $1.1 billion and also provides an expansion option, which permits us to request an increase of up to $400 million to the credit facility upon satisfaction of certain conditions. The U.S. revolving credit facility had an outstanding balance of ~~$400~~$396 million at ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021. The weighted-average interest rate on primarily all of the outstanding credit facility borrowings was ~~1.66%~~1.86% and is principally based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, which was ~~1.50%~~1.75% at ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our U.S. assets.

The U.S. revolving credit facility contains various covenants. The minimum for the interest coverage ratio, defined as the ratio of EBITDA to interest expense for the most recent four quarters, is 3.0. The maximum for the leverage ratio, defined as the ratio of net debt to EBITDA for the most recent four quarters, is 4.0. We are in compliance with all covenants. EBITDA is defined in the loan agreement as (i) the sum of net income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, other non-cash items reducing consolidated net income and non-cash equity-based compensation expenses minus (ii) other non-cash items increasing consolidated net income.

We are generally not required to obtain the consent of lenders of the U.S. revolving credit facility before raising significant additional debt financing; however, certain limitations and conditions may apply that would require consent to be obtained. In recent years, we have demonstrated our ability to secure consents to access debt markets. We have also been successful in accessing equity markets from time to time. We believe that we will be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing as needed.

The SECT has a revolving credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $35 million, maturing on July 26, 2022. Interest was ~~2.27%~~2.23% as of ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021 and is based on LIBOR plus a margin of 2.13%. As of ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, there was $5$7 million of outstanding borrowings.

On December 13, 2019, we completed the sale of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior notes due December 15, 2027 with interest paid semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, which commenced on June 15, 2020. The senior notes are unsecured obligations, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries and contain normal incurrence-based covenants and limitations such as the ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, make other restricted payments and investments, create liens and certain corporate acts such as mergers and consolidations. The aggregate net proceeds were used to repay indebtedness under our U.S. bank facility, thereby increasing the unused portion of our U.S. revolving credit facility.

On December 13, 2019, we issued a notice of redemption to the holders of our 5.25% senior notes due on December 1, 2022, to redeem and retire all of the outstanding notes. The notes were redeemed on January 13, 2020 at 101.313%, pursuant to an early redemption right. We redeemed the aggregate principal amount of $300 million using proceeds drawn from our U.S. revolving credit facility. The associated loss on the redemption includes $4 million of call premium paid to external bondholders.

We have a trade receivables securitization facility (the "Securitization Program") that matures on October 29, 2021. The Securitization Program provides up to $80 million of borrowing capacity and lowers our cost to borrow funds as compared to the U.S. revolving credit facility. Under the Securitization Program, we sell certain trade receivables and related rights to an affiliate, which in turn sells an undivided variable percentage ownership interest in the trade receivables to a financial institution, while maintaining a subordinated interest in a portion of the pool of trade receivables. We had an outstanding ~~balance~~balance of ~~$67~~$69 million at ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021. The Securitization Program has a minimum borrowing requirement, which was ~~$53~~$55 million ~~at January 2,~~at April 3, 2021. Interest on the secured borrowings under the Securitization Program was ~~1.02%~~1.04% at ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021 and is based on 30-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin.

At ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021, we had ~~$703~~$711 million of unused capacity, including ~~$660~~$670 million from the U.S. revolving credit facility after considering standby letters of credit. Our leverage ratio covenant limits our ability to increase net debt by $~~474~~427 million as of ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021.

Net debt to capitalization waswas 40% at ~~January 2,~~April 3, 2021 and October 3, 2020, respectively.

We declared and paid cash dividends of $0.25 per share on our Class A and Class B common stock in the first ~~quarter~~and second quarters of 2021.

The Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program. This program was amended from time to time to authorize additional repurchases that includes both Class A and Class B common stock, and allowed us to buy up to an aggregate 13 million common shares. Under this program, we purchased approximately 13 million shares for $899 million.

On November 20, 2020, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program to replace the existing share repurchase program. This program authorizes repurchases that includes both Class A and Class B common stock, and allows us to buy up to an aggregate 3 million common shares. ~~There have been no purchases under~~Under this program, ~~as of January 2, 2021.~~we purchased approximately 96,000 shares for $7 million.

As we progress in the current COVID-19 environment, we believe we are well positioned to invest in our business and we have returned to a balanced capital deployment strategy. We will invest in our operations and explore opportunities to make strategic acquisitions and return capital to shareholders.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND MARKET TRENDS

We operate within the aerospace and defense and industrial markets. Our businesses are facing varying levels of pressure from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Within our aerospace and defense markets, our defense and space businesses ~~represent~~represented approximately half of our 2020 sales. We expect these businesses may face modest supply chain and production level risks, as they are more directly affected by program funding levels which, to-date, are stable. However, our commercial aircraft market, which ~~represents~~represented less than 20% of our 2020 sales, will continue to face the greatest pressures due to the dramatic reductions in air travel.

Within our industrial markets, our industrial automation, simulation and test and energy niche markets, which ~~represents~~represented less than 25% of our 2020 sales, will continue to face productivity and demand challenges from the macroeconomic slowdown and reduced capital investments. Our medical business, which ~~represents~~represented approximately 10% of our 2020 sales, ~~has seen~~experienced a surge in demand for our medical applications essential in the fight against the pandemic. As this surge in demand wanes, we expect to return to normal growth rates in the future.

A common factor throughout our markets is the continuing demand for technologically advanced products.

Aerospace and Defense

Within aerospace and defense, we serve three end markets: defense, commercial aircraft and space.

The defense market is dependent on military spending for development and production programs, which to-date, have not been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have a growing development program order book for future generation aircraft and hypersonic missiles, and we strive to embed our technologies within these high-performance military programs of the future. Aircraft production programs are typically long-term in nature, offering predictability as to capacity needs and future revenues. We maintain positions on numerous high priority programs, including the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II, FA-18E/F Super Hornet and V-22 Osprey. The large installed base of our products leads to attractive aftermarket sales and service opportunities. The tactical and strategic missile, missile defense and defense controls markets are dependent on many of the same market conditions as military aircraft, including overall military spending and program funding levels. At times when there are perceived threats to national security, U.S. Defense spending can increase; at other times, defense spending can decrease. Future levels of defense spending are uncertain, subject to presidential and congressional debate and could be reduced ifto offset the various COVID-19 pandemic ~~continues.~~relief payments.

The commercial OEM aircraft market has depended on a number of factors, including both the last decade's increasing global demand for air travel and increasing fuel prices. Both factors contributed to the demand for new, more fuel-efficient aircraft with lower operating costs that lead to large production backlogs for Boeing and Airbus. However, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has drastically reduced air traffic as travel restrictions and social distancing measures were implemented to help control the spread of the virus. The reduced air traffic has applied financial pressures on airlines, ~~which~~and in order to preserve cash and liquidity, have ~~in turn~~ dramatically reduced flight hours and delayed the purchases of new ~~aircraft in order to preserve cash and liquidity.~~aircraft. Given the uncertain length of this pandemic and associated restrictions to travel long distances, the commercial market may shift away from wide-body aircraft. Additionally, given the abruptly stalled global economies and social pauses, global oil production is now over-supplied, creating drastic reductions in the prices of oil. The lower prices for jet fuel mitigates the advantage of new, more fuel-efficient aircraft that created record backlogs for the OEMs. Furthermore, as companies and employees become accustomed to working remotely, business travel and the associated flight hours may not reach the pre-crisis levels. As such, we believe Boeing and Airbus will continue to directionally match their production rates with the reduced air traffic volume, which will lower their demand for our flight control systems. We believe the commercial OEM ~~market~~market's recovery will be heavily dependent on COVID-19 infections and vaccinations, changes to travel restrictions and social distancing measures and therefore will face ~~these~~ pressures for a prolonged period of time.

The commercial aftermarket is driven by usage and age of the existing aircraft fleet for passenger and cargo aircraft, which drives the need for maintenance and repairs. Given the dramatic reductions in flight hours and the airlines' cash preservation measures due to the impacts of COVID-19, we believe the demand volume for our maintenance services and spare parts will remain at depressed levels over the short-term. Also, with fewer expected new aircraft deliveries, we would see lower future initial provisioning and spares sales. However, when domestic and international travel begin to recover, we expect a faster recovery in this market as compared to the commercial OEM market.

The space market is comprised of four customer markets: the civil market, the department of defense market, the commercial space market and the new space market. The civil market, namely NASA, is driven by investment for commercial and exploration activities, including NASA's return to the moon. The department of defense market is driven by governmental-authorized levels of funding for satellite communications, as well as funding for hypersonic defense technologies. The commercial space market is comprised of large satellite customers, which traditionally sell to communications companies. Trends for this market, as well as for commercial launch vehicles, follow demand for increased capacity. This, in turn tends to track with underlying demand for increased consumption of telecommunication services, satellite replacements and global navigation needs. The new space market is driven by investments to increase the speed and access to space through smaller satellites at reduced cost. Similar to the defense market, funding for these four markets have not been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic to-date.

Industrial

Within industrial, we serve two end markets: industrial, consisting of industrial automation products, simulation and test products and energy generation and exploration products; and medical.

The industrial market we serve with our industrial automation products is influenced by several factors including capital investment levels, the pace of product innovation, economic conditions, cost-reduction efforts and technology upgrades. As governments around the world implement ~~increasingly stringent~~ measures to help control the spread of the COVID-19 virus, the subsequent economic downturn has constrained capital investment and slowed investments in product innovation and upgrades. These unfavorable economic conditions have affected, and could for an extended period of time, affect our supply chain, productivity and customer demand as our customers are also impacted by international and domestic economic conditions.

Our simulation and test products operate in markets that are largely affected by these same factors and investment challenges stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Reduced air travel and the subsequent reduction in new commercial aircraft have reduced the need for flight simulator training, for which we supply motion control products. Similarly, the recent lower capital spend has reduced the need for our automotive and material testing applications.

Our energy generation and exploration products operate in a market that is ~~affected~~influenced by changing oil and natural gas prices, global urbanization and the resulting change in supply and demand for global energy. Historically, drivers for global growth include investments in power generation infrastructure and exploration of new oil and gas resources. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to reduced oil prices, which reduces the economic feasibility for these investments and explorations.

The medical market we serve, in general, is influenced by economic conditions, regulatory environments, hospital and outpatient clinic spending on equipment, population demographics, medical advances, patient demands and the need for precision control components and systems. The outbreak of the COVID-19 virus ~~has~~ created unprecedented demand for medical equipment and has shifted the way hospitals optimize their capacity. Our medical components products are critical motion control components for life saving medical equipment, including ventilators, oxygen concentrators and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines, among others. The COVID-19 pandemic ~~has~~ increased the demand for ventilators, of which our products are a key component of that industry's supply chain. Additionally, our medical devices products including infusion and enteral feeding pumps, and their corresponding disposable sets, are used primarily in the home healthcare environment. Since the COVID-19 pandemic has altered the way hospitals provide care by asking non-critical patients to recuperate at home, our medical devices products have seen an increase in orders. However, we don't expect this surge in demand to continue as our customers refill and resize their inventory levels.

Foreign Currencies

We are affected by the movement of foreign currencies compared to the U.S. dollar, particularly in Aircraft Controls and Industrial Systems. About one-fifth of our 2020 sales were denominated in foreign currencies. During the first ~~three~~six months of 2021, average foreign currency rates generally strengthened against the U.S. dollar compared to 2020. The translation of the results of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars increased sales by $6$16 million compared to the same period one year ago.
