1The calculation of earnings per share is performed separately for continuing and discontinued operations. As a result, the sum of the two in any particular period may not equal the earnings-per-share amount in total.
2The loss per share for discontinued operations in the Second Quarter of 2021 and Second quarter and year-to-date of 2020 has not been diluted, since the incremental shares included in the weighted-average number of shares outstanding would have been anti-dilutive.

LUXFER HOLDINGS PLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1.    Basis of Presentation and Responsibility for interim Financial Statements
We prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of Luxfer Holdings PLC and all wholly-owned, majority owned or otherwise controlled subsidiaries on the same basis as our annual audited financial statements, except for the adoption for Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, "current expected credit loss model".statements. We condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual audited financial statements, which we prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).
Our quarterly financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020. As used in this report, the terms "we," "us," "our," "Luxfer" and "the Company" mean Luxfer Holdings PLC and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates another meaning.
In the opinion of management, our financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for presentation of financial statements for interim periods in accordance with U.S. GAAP and with the instructions to Form 10-Q in Article 10 of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to our financial statements.
Our fiscal year ends on December 31. We report our interim quarterly periods on a 13-week quarter basis, ending on a Sunday. The ThirdSecond Quarter 2021, ended on June 27, 2021, and the Second Quarter 2020, ended on September 27, 2020, andJune 28, 2020.
Discontinued operations
Certain amounts in the Third Quarter 2019, ended on September 29, 2019.prior-year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation primarily due to the classification of certain businesses as discontinued operations.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Financial Statements
In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic. The rapid spread of the pandemic and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had an increasingly negative impact on the global economy. At this time, Luxfer is operatingLuxfer’s 2020 results were significantly affected by the global macro environment resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, including broad-based market weakness, which was especially evident in our general industrial and transportation end-markets, contributing to a full year decline of 18.0% and 14.7% respectively, in each of those markets.
In the first half of 2021, with net sales up 11.6%, a return to growth across all end-markets and adjusted EBITDA up 32.6% on the prior year, the Company has delivered two successive quarters of strong performance amid the global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, it continues to operate all of its facilities at near normal production levels, following earlier temporary closures atof a small numberfew locations in the second and third quarters of locations. However, due2020. Due to weaker demand resulting from uncertain economic conditions, potential supply constraints, and the continued spreadimpact of COVID-19, Luxfer has temporarily reduced capacity at certain facilities with partial furloughing of the workforce. We have also identifiedimplemented additional cost saving programs in the second half of 2020, including headcount reductionsreductions. Company performance is now much improved and the apparent success of vaccine programs in the U.S. and Europe has given rise to fewer restrictions, increased stability and macroeconomic recovery. That said, the coronavirus is still prevalent in many of our markets, there are pressures on availability of raw materials and labor, continuing restrictions on international travel and there is therefore considerable uncertainty as a direct response to the impact of the pandemic. As the situation evolves and ifwhen fully normal conditions will prevail. If warranted, it is possible that the Company may again suspend or reduce operations at additional facilities. In view of the rapidly changing business environment, unprecedented market volatility and heightened degree of uncertainty resulting from COVID-19, we are currently unable to fully determine its future impact on our business. However, we are monitoring the progression of the pandemic and its potentialcertain facilities, which could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The Company recognized that the COVID-19 pandemic constituted a triggering event in accordance with ASCAccounting Standards Codification, ("ASC"), 350 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, during the First Quarterfirst quarter of 2020 and therefore performed an impairment assessment of its goodwill and other intangible assets. Based on the forecast at that time, we did not identify any impairments, nor marginal outcomes. A re-forecast wasDuring 2020 and in the first half of 2021, quarterly re-forecasts were performed in July and October, which took into accountto assess the impact COVID-19 has hadwas having on our secondresults and thirdliquidity, and in the fourth quarter results. The re-forecast did not changeof 2020 we carried out our annual goodwill and other intangibles impairment test using cash flows from the annual and strategic plan budgeting exercise.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Financial Statements (continued)
There have been no triggering events that has changed our assessment of fair value, withas a result, no impairments nor marginal outcomes identified.
Assumptions and judgments are required in calculating the fair value of the reporting units. In developing our discounted cash flow analysis, assumptions about future revenues and expenses, capital expenditures and changes in working capital are based on our annual operating plan and long-term business plan for each of our reporting units. These plans take into consideration numerous factors including historical experience, anticipated future economic conditions, changes in raw material prices and growth expectations for the industries and end markets we participate in. These assumptions and judgments may change as we learn more about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In relation to liquidity, the Company has access to a revolving credit facility (see Note 10)9) and has performed stress testing on financial covenants using current forecast information and has not identified any liquidity concerns.

Adoption of new accounting standards
Current expected credit loss ("CECL") model
On January 1, 2020, Furthermore, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, financial instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurementhas reported historically low levels of credit losses on Financial Instruments prospectively. The ASU replacesnet debt and continual strong cash flow generation since the incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss impairment model for financial instruments, including trade receivables.
Under the CECL model, the Company is required to consider whether expected credit losses should be recognized for trade receivables that are considered “current” (i.e., not past due).
When using historical loss rates in a provision matrix, the Company is required to consider whether and, if so, how the historical loss rates differ from what is currently expected over the lifeonset of the trade receivables (on the basis of current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future).
Upon adoption, there was no adjustment needed to opening retained earnings as at January 1, 2020.
As a result of implementing ASU 2016-13, the Company did not recognize any material additional allowance within Accounts and Other Receivables as at January 1, 2020. Accounts and Other Receivables are shown net of a $0.6 million allowance at September 27, 2020.
The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products. The Company’s expected loss allowance methodology for accounts receivable is developed using historical collection experience, current and future economic and market conditions and a review of the current status of customers' trade accounts receivables. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimate of accounts receivable amounts that may not be collected is based on aging of the accounts receivable balances and the financial condition of customers. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and determined that the estimate of credit losses was not significantly impacted.
Estimates are used to determine the allowance. It is based on assessment of anticipated receipts and all other historical, current and future information that is reasonably available.
The following table provides a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected.

2.    Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income or loss for the period by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding, net of Treasurytreasury shares and shares held in ESOP. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding net of Treasury shares, shares held in ESOP and the dilutive ordinary shares equivalents.
Basic and diluted earnings per share were calculated as follows:

3 The calculation of earnings per share is performed separately for continuing and discontinued operations. As a result, the sum of the two in any particular period may not equal the earnings-per-share amount in total
In the second quarter of 2021 and 2020 and year-to-date 2020, basic average shares outstanding and diluted average shares outstanding were the same for discontinued operations because the effect of potential shares of common stock was anti-dilutive since the Company generated a net loss from discontinued operations.

10.    Discontinued Operations
Our Superform aluminum superplastic forming business operating from sites in the U.S. and the U.K, and our U.S. aluminum gas cylinder business were historically included in the Gas Cylinders segment. As a result of our decision to exit non-strategic aluminum product lines, we have reflected the results of operations of these businesses as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented. Our U.S. aluminum gas cylinder business was sold in March 2021 for $20.6 million and we expect the sales of our Superform businesses to occur in 2021.
The assets and liabilities of the Superform businesses have been presented within Current assets held-for-sale and Current liabilities held-for-sale in the consolidated balance sheets for 2021 and 2020 and our U.S. aluminum gas cylinders business in 2020. The Company has determined that the carrying value of the held-for-sale assets is recoverable and as a result no loss allowances have been recognized.

11.    Income Taxes
We manage our affairs so that we are centrally managed and controlled in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) and therefore have our tax residency in the U.K. The provision for income taxes consists of provisions for the U.K. and international income taxes. We operate in an international environment with operations in various locations outside the U.K. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the earnings in the various locations and the applicable rates.
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations for the 39-week periodfirst half ended SeptemberJune 27, 2020,2021, was 30.1%7.7%, compared to 42.7%19.0% for the 39-week26-week period ended September 29, 2019.June 28, 2020. The 2020 tax2021 rate has been affectedimpacted by the reduction in the Canadian tax rate which is applied toa $2.8 million deferred tax assets. However, there is no material change to our cash tax ratecredit as a result of these items. The 2019 rate was affected by the impact of non-deductible expenses related toenacted increase in the aborted acquisition of Neo Performance Materials and restructuring activities. TheU.K. tax rate in any quarter can be affected positively or negatively by adjustments that are requiredfrom 19% to be reported in the specific quarter of resolution.25% from April 2023.

None of these were utilized at SeptemberJune 27, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020, respectively.

The Company also has 2 separate (uncommitted) bonding facilities for bank guarantees;guarantees, 1 denominated in GBP sterling of £4.5 million (2020: $5.7(2021: $6.3 million, 2019: $5.92020: $6.1 million), and 1 denominated in USD of $1.5 million (2019: $0.4(2020: $1.5 million).

Inventory commitments

Noneat December 31, 2020.
Contingencies
During February 2014, a cylinder was sold to a long-term customer and ruptured at one of their gas facilities. As a result of this rupture, 3 people were noted to have minor injuries such as loss of hearing. There was no major damage to assets of the customer. A claim washas been launched by the three3 people who were injured in the incident. We have reviewed our quality control checks from around the time which the cylinder was produced and no instances of failures have been noted. It has also been noted by the investigator that the customer has poor quality and safety checks. As a result we do not believe that we are liable for the incident, and therefore, do not currently expect this case to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
In November 2018, an explosion occurred at a third-party waste disposal and treatment site in Boise,
Idaho, allegedly causing property damage, personal injury, and one fatality. We had contracted with a service
company for removal and disposal of certain waste resulting from the magnesium powder manufacturing
operations at the Reade facility in Manchester, New Jersey. We believe this service company, in turn, apparently
contracted with the third-party disposal company, at whose facility the explosion occurred, for treatment and
disposal of the waste. In November 2020, we were named as a defendant in 3 lawsuits in relation to the
incident – one by the third-party disposal company, one by the estate of the decedent, and one by an injured
employee of the third-party disposal company. At present, we have received insufficient information on the cause
of the explosion. We do not believe that we are liable for the incident, have asserted such, and, therefore, do not
currently expect this matter to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of
operations.

Key trends and uncertainties regarding our existing business
Impact of COVID-19 on operations

Luxfer’s top priority during this global pandemic is the health and well-being of our employees, customers, shareholders, and the communities in which we operate. The Company continues to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely, while simultaneously executing business continuity plans. These business continuity plans include, but are not limited to, (i) retooling operations to maintain social distance and maximize employee safety; (ii) increasing resources and efforts to satisfy demand from the most impactful parts of our business; (iii) expanding flexible work arrangements and policies, where practical, to maximize employee safety; (iv) increased monitoring of short-term cash flow, including measures to reduce costs and generate cash; and (v)(iv) providing regular updates to our shareholders, employees, customers, and suppliers in a transparent and timely manner.

At this time, Luxfer continues to operate all of its facilities, following temporary closures at a small number of locations earlier in the year. However, due to weaker demand resulting from uncertain economic conditions, potential supply constraints, anddelivered strong second quarter results amid the continued spread ofglobal economic recovery from the COVID-19 Luxfer has temporarily reduced capacity at certain facilities and has implemented additional cost saving programs, including headcount reductionspandemic, reporting a 29.2% increase in quarter on quarter revenues, as well as sequential revenue growth on a direct response tolike-for-like basis excluding the impact of the pandemic. AsSCI acquisition. This is in contrast to Luxfer’s 2020 results which were significantly affected by broad based market weakness with the situation evolvesimpact most pronounced in the second and ifthird quarters, which suffered a decline in revenues of around 18% versus the prior year. Company performance is now much improved and the apparent success of vaccine programs in the U.S. and Europe has given rise to fewer restrictions, increased stability and macroeconomic recovery. That said, the coronavirus is still prevalent in many of our markets, with continuing restrictions on international travel and pressures on the availability of raw materials and labor. There is therefore considerable uncertainty as to when fully normal conditions will prevail. If warranted, it is possible that the Company may again suspend or reduce operations at additional facilities.

Luxfer’s third quartercertain facilities, which could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results continueof operations and cash flows. The Company continues to reflect the global macro environment resultingbenefit from the COVID-19 pandemic, including broad-based market weakness, which is especially evident in our industrial and transportation end-markets. Our industrial and transportation end-markets have declined 19.4% and 19.3%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2020 and 18.3% and 26.7%, respectively, in the first nine months, relative to the same period in the prior year. However, the Company has a strong balance sheet and access to an existing $150demonstrates strong operating cash generation. Furthermore, with historically low net debt of $39.5 million credit facility, which was not drawnand a 63% increase in quarter on at the end of the third quarter following strong cash generation in the quarter. Furthermore, asEBITDA, our net debt to EBITDA ratio has fallen to 1.1x0.6x at the end of the third quarterQ2 2021 (from 1.5x1.0x at the end of the second quarter), we have identified no issues in relation to financial covenants nor availability of funding for continued operations. We continue to learn more about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and these assumptions and judgments may change over time.2020).

Operating objectives and trends
In 2020,2021, we expect the following operating objectives and trends to impact our business:
ProactiveContinuing proactive response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the health and well-being actions highlighted above, in addition to initiatives to stimulate demand for products, ensure continuity of supply and action focusedfocus on cost saving programs;
ProductivityDivestiture of non-strategic aluminum businesses (identified as discontinued operations) in the Gas Cylinders segment;
Refocus on productivity acceleration and growth recovery post COVID-19 as we progress towards acapitalize on lean manufacturing processinitiatives and increase focus onpursue faster product innovation;

DecreasedIncreased sales in the second quarter in Luxfer MEL Technologies, primarily of Oil and Gas magnesium aerospace alloys and zirconium catalysis materialsautomotive products, although Oil and SoluMag® alloyGas sales were marginally down in our Elektron Division;the first half overall due to a relatively strong performance in the first quarter 2020, before the pandemic took hold;
DecreasedIncreased sales in Luxfer Magtech, primarily in the second quarter of photo-engraving plates in our Elektron Division;magnesium powders for military applications;
Lower Superform tooling and formed partIncreased sales predominantly to European luxury automotive customers impacted by temporary facility shutdowns earlierin Luxfer Gas Cylinders in the year;second quarter, $8.0 million of which is due to the acquisition of Structural Composite Industries at the end of the first quarter, which positively impacted SCBA cylinders used by first responders, as well as cylinders used in aerospace and alternative fuels applications; and
Decreased salesFavorable foreign exchange variances of aluminum cylinders for industrial use and lower sales of SCBA composite cylinders.
These decreases were partially offset by growth in sales$4.5 million in the third quarter of chemical response kits and heater meals in our Elektron Division.

The 3.32.7 and 3.42.2 percentage point decreaseincrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales in the thirdsecond quarter and first nine months,half, respectively of 20202021 from 20192020 was primarily the result of adverse product sales mix.
These adverse factors were partially offset by the impact of productivity improvementsour ongoing cost reduction program as well as cost saving measures taken in Luxfer Gas Cylinders Europe, following closureresponse to COVID-19 in the second half of the French operation in 2019 and transfer of production to the U.K. and U.S.A.prior year.

In addition we have incurred one-time employee benefit expense in relation to COVID-led cost saving programs largely affecting our Elektron Division, of $1.0 million and $1.2 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 respectively.
The $2.6 million restructuring charge in the third quarter of 2019 was driven by $2.1 million of further costs associated with the announced closure of Luxfer Gas Cylinders France, including one-time employee benefits, ongoing site costs and legal and professional fees. In addition, restructuring charges include $0.5 million related to one-time employee benefits across sites in North America and the U.K in the Elektron and Gas Cylinders segment.
The $24.3 million restructuring charge in the first nine-months of 2019 includes $18.7 million in relation to the closure of Luxfer Gas Cylinders France; $4.6 million related to asset write-downs and one-time employee benefits following the decision to scale down production at one of our Luxfer Magtech sites; and $1.0 million of
other simplification costs.

Net costs of $0.2$0.7 million and $0.9 million incurred in the second quarter and first nine monthshalf of 20202021 respectively include amounts incurred in relation to the acquisition of Structural Composites Industries.
Acquisition related costs of $0.2 million in 2020 represents amounts incurred in relation to merger and acquisition ("M&A&A"), exploration activities net of a $0.1 million release of deferred contingent consideration.

In July 2020 we sold our 51% investment in Luxfer Uttam India Private Limited to the JV partner. Allowing for legal costs we generated a profit on disposal of less than $0.1 million.

Acquisition and disposal related costs in 2019 of $1.7 million relate to a $3.5 million reimbursement payment and $1.1 million of professional and legal fees incurred in connection with the terminated acquisition of Neo Performance Materials, occurring in the first quarter; offset in the second quarter by a $2.9 million gain on disposal of Elektron's magnesium recycling business in the Czech Republic.

Other income
Other income of $2.3 million for the Third Quarter of 2020 represents payments received from a European automotive customer for compensation in relation to contribution of loss and product volumes relating to our Gas Cylinders segment. This item has been included in adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share as the compensation relates to a current customer and an existing line of business.

Other charges
Other charges of $2.7 million incurred in the Third Quarterduring 2021 relates to the settlement of 2019 werea class action lawsuit in the resultGas Cylinders segment in relation to an alleged historic violation of the Company's decision to commence a project to remove low-level naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) from a redundant building at its Manchester, UK site. The work represents remediation of a legacy environmental issue and as such has been excluded from adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share. It is expected to complete in the first quarter of 2021 but with no significant further costs envisaged.Californian Labor Code, concerning an Human Resources administration matter.

Net interest expense
Net interest expense in 2020 from 2019 decreased by $0.1of $0.8 million in the second quarter and was flatof 2021 reduced from $1.1 million in the second quarter 2020, largely due to the $25 million early repayment in December 2020 of the Loan Notes 2021. This also resulted in lower net interest expense of $1.6 million in the first nine monthshalf of 2021 relative to $2.3 million in the year.first half 2020.

Defined benefit pension credit

Provision for income taxes
The movement in the statutory effective tax rate from 46.1%19.0% in 2019,2020, to 30.1%7.7% in 2020,2021, was primarily due to non-deductible restructuring activitiesthe impact of the enacted tax rate change in 2020 and 2019 and non-deductible expensesthe U.K., which is due to rise from 19% to 25% in April 2023.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES TO GAAP MEASURES
The following table of non-GAAP summary financial data presents a reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income for the periods presented, being the most comparable GAAP measure. Management believes that adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted EBITA and adjusted EBITDA are key performance indicators (KPIs) used by the investment community and that such presentation will enhance an investor’s understanding of the Company's operational results. In addition, Luxfer's CEO and other senior management use these KPIs, among others, to evaluate business performance. However, investors should not consider adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share in isolation as an alternative to net income and earnings per share when evaluating Luxfer's operating performance or measuring Luxfer's profitability.

Adjusted EBITDA
The 5.32.7 percentage point increasedecrease in adjusted EBITDA for Gas Cylinders as a percentage of net sales in the thirdsecond quarter of 2021 relative to 2020 from 2019is largely due to adverse sales mix and losses incurred by the recently acquired SCI business.

Productivity improvements and cost savings.
This was partially offset by adverse product mix.

This was further impacted by adverse product sales mix.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our liquidity requirements arise primarily from obligations under our indebtedness, capital expenditures, acquisitions, the funding of working capital and the funding of hedging facilities to manage foreign exchange and commodity purchase price risks. We meet these requirements primarily through cash flows from operating activities, cash deposits and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and accompanying ancillary hedging facilities and the Loan Notes due 2021, 2023 and 2026. Our principal liquidity needs are:
funding acquisitions, including deferred contingent consideration payments;
capital expenditure requirements;
payment of shareholder dividends;
servicing interest on the Loan Notes, which is payable at each quarter end, in addition to interest and / or commitment fees on the Senior Facilities Agreement;
working capital requirements, particularly in the short term as we aim to achieve organic sales growth; and
hedging facilities used to manage our foreign exchange and aluminum purchase price risks.
From time to time, we consider acquisitions or investments in other businesses that we believe would be appropriate additions to our business.
Our Revolving Credit Facility expires on July 31, 2022 and we are currently negotiating a new facility which we expect to be in place by the third quarter 2021.
We believe that, in the long term, cash generated from our operations will be adequate to meet our anticipated requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and interest payments on our indebtedness. In the short term, we believe we have sufficient credit facilities to cover any variation in our cash flow generation. However, any major repayments of indebtedness will be dependent on our ability to raise alternative financing or to realize substantial returns from operational sales. Also, our ability to expand operations through sales development and capital expenditures could be constrained by the availability of liquidity, which, in turn, could impact the profitability of our operations.
28


We have been in compliance with the covenants under the Loan NotesNote Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement and the Senior Facilities Agreement throughout all of the quarterly measurement dates from and including September 30, 2011inception to SeptemberJune 27, 2020.2021.
Luxfer conducts all of its operations through its subsidiaries, joint ventures and affiliates. Accordingly, Luxfer's main cash source is dividends from its subsidiaries. The ability of each subsidiary to make distributions depends on the funds that a subsidiary receives from its operations in excess of the funds necessary for its operations, obligations or other business plans. We have not historically experienced any material impediment to these distributions, and we do not expect any local legal or regulatory regimes to have any impact on our ability to meet our liquidity requirements in the future. In addition, since our subsidiaries are wholly-owned, our claims will generally rank junior to all other obligations of the subsidiaries. If our operating subsidiaries are unable to make distributions, our growth may slow, unless we are able to obtain additional debt or equity financing. In the event of a subsidiary's liquidation, there may not be assets sufficient for us to recoup our investment in the subsidiary.
Our ability to maintain or increase the generation of cash from our operations in the future will depend significantly on the competitiveness of and demand for our products, including our success in launching new products. Achieving such success is a key objective of our business strategy. Due to commercial, competitive and external economic factors, however, we cannot guarantee that we will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future working capital will be available in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness or make necessary capital expenditures.
Cash Flows
Operating activities
Cash provided by operating activities was $36.7$24.4 million for the year-to-date in 2020.2021. It was primarily related to net income from operating activities, net of the following non-cash items: depreciation and amortization, pension contributions and net changes to assets and liabilities.
Cash used inprovided by operating activities was $13.6$9.5 million in the first nine monthshalf of 2019.2020.

Investing activities
Net cash used for investing activities was $4.7$2.3 million for the first nine monthshalf of 2020,2021, compared to net cash used for investing activities of $4.5$4.4 million in 2019. The2020.The movement was primarily due to the impactacquisition and disposal activity. There was $20.6 million of the higher proceeds received from the saleour divestiture of businesses in 2019,our U.S. aluminum gas cylinder facility included within discontinued operations, partially offset by a decrease inthe $19.3 million acquisition of SCI. In addition, capital expenditures decreased from $4.4 million in the current year which were $6.0 million and $10.3 million, for the first nine-months of 2020, and 2019, respectively. We anticipate capital expenditures for fiscal 2020 to be approximately $10 million.$3.6 million in 2021.
Financing activities
In the first nine monthshalf of 2020,2021, net cash used for financing activities was $27.3$13.6 million (2019: $16.5 million inflow)(2020: $6.9 million). We made net repayments on our banking facilities of $16.5$4.4 million (2019: $31.7(2020: $0.4 million drawdown) and dividend payments of $10.2$6.8 million (2019: $10.2(2020: $6.8 million), equating to $0.375$0.25 per ordinary share. WeIn 2020 we received $1.1 million (2019: $3.3 million) in relation to proceeds from sales of shares, andno shares have been sold in 2021. In addition, we paid out $1.3$1.5 million (2019: $4.3(2020: $1.2 million) in settling share based compensation. During the quarter we commenced a share buy-back program which resulted in an outflow of $0.9 million.
During the Second Quarter of 2021 the Directors approved a share buy-back program for the purchase of 200,000 ordinary shares over the course of 34 weeks, ceasing December 27, 2021. The program commenced on May 10, 2021 and during the Second Quarter the Company purchased 38,000 shares, resulting in a cash outflow of $0.9 million (2020: $nil).
Capital Resources
Dividends
We paid year-to-date dividends in 20202021 of $10.2$6.8 million (2019: $10.2(2020: $6.8 million year-to-date), or $0.375$0.25 per ordinary share.
Any payment of dividends is also subject to the provisions of the U.K. Companies Act, according to which dividends may only be paid out of profits available for distribution determined by reference to financial statements prepared in accordance with the Companies Act and IFRS as adopted by the E.U., which differ in some respects from GAAP. In the event that dividends are paid in the future, holders of the ordinary shares will be entitled to receive payments in U.S. dollars in respect of dividends on the underlying ordinary shares in accordance with the deposit agreement. Furthermore, because we are a holding company, any dividend payments would depend on cash flows from our subsidiaries.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of our published financial statements and other disclosures included in this report. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter ended SeptemberJune 27, 2020,2021, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A. of our 20192020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except that the adverse impact of the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak has become more significant and widespread. The related risk factors under the caption "We depend upon our larger suppliers for a significant portion of our raw materials, and a loss of one of these suppliers, or a significant supply interruption could negatively impact our financial performance" as previously disclosed in Item 1A. of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K relating to COVID-19, remain applicable. In addition to the supply-side risks there are additional risks related to a fall in customer demand. We therefore highlight the following additional risk.

Our results of operations may be negatively impacted by the coronavirus disease pandemic
In December 2019, the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) surfaced in Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic. The rapid spread of the pandemic and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had an increasingly negative impact on the global economy, resulting in an economic downturn that could impact demand for our products and our ability to produce them. With many countries affected, there have been widespread disruptions from the temporary closure of third-party supplier and manufacturer facilities and interruptions in product supply. To date the outbreak has resulted in a decline in revenues and profitability as highlighted in Item 2, Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. While there have been some positive indicators such as restrictive measures being reduced in many countries and the reopening of temporarily closed facilities, the future impact remains highly uncertain and cannot be predicted and there is no assurance that the outbreak will not have a material adverse impact on the future results of the Company. The extent of the impact will depend on future developments, including global and country-specific actions taken to contain the spread of the coronavirus.10-K.
