NOTE 1 – BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the management of the Company, as defined below, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. All such adjustments, except for those adjustments relating to discontinued operations, are of a normal recurring nature. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.

 

The consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 20162020 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162020 (“20162020 Form 10-K”). The interim consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the 20162020 Form 10-K.

 

The consolidated financial statements have been reported in U.S. dollars by translating asset and liability amounts of a foreign wholly-owned subsidiary at the closing exchange rate, equity amounts at historical rates and the results of operations and cash flow at the average of the prevailing exchange rates during the periods reported. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign currency translation gains or losses. These gains or losses are presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as “Other comprehensive income (loss) - foreign currency translation adjustment”.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein include the accounts of P&F Industries, Inc., and its subsidiaries (“P&F” or the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements of the Company have been reclassified to conform to classifications used in the current year. The reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.

Customer Concentration

The Company has one retail customer that during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 accounted for 23.6% and 27.6%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue. Whereas for the same three and nine-month periods in 2016, the Company had two retail customers that accounted for 45.3% and 43.4%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue. Additionally, the Company has two retail customers that, in the aggregate, at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, accounted for 39.6% and 53.5%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable.

Out - of - period Adjustment

During the preparation of the Company’s tax provision for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017, it determined that the effect of forfeitures, expiration and exercise of certain of its common stock options should have been reflected in its second quarter and six-month period ended June 30, 2017’s income tax provision. The Company has concluded that this error was immaterial based upon a qualitative and quantitative analysis. As such, the Company reflected such effect in its three and nine-month period ended September 30, 2017.

The Company

 

P&F, is a Delaware corporation incorporated on April 19, 1963. Prior to February 11, 2016 (the “Nationwide Closing Date”), the effective date of the sale of its Nationwide Industries, Inc. (“Nationwide”) subsidiary, P&F operated in two primary lines of business or segments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories (“Hardware”). As a result of the sale of Nationwide, which had been reported in the Hardware segment, the Company currently only operates in the Tools business.

PriorCOVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic. The Company continues to actively monitor COVID-19 and its continued impact on its operations and financial results. To date, there has been minimal disruption to the Nationwide Closing Date,Company’s supply chain network, and all its manufacturing plants are open. The Company’s corporate office and business units are continuing to work alongside their external business partners and customers to minimize the continued business constraints caused by COVID-19 on its business.

Due in large part to shelter-in-place restrictions that were implemented in late first quarter of 2020, which for many has been lifted during the latter portion of 2020 and early 2021, as well as significant decreases in travel and customer consumption behavior, the Company conductedexperienced a reduction in its Hardwarerevenue and earnings per share during 2020 and for the first quarter of 2021. It is too early to determine what the financial impacts from COVID-19 will be on the Company’s businesses in the future.

Going Concern Assessment

Management assesses going concern uncertainty in the Company’s consolidated financial statements to determine whether there is sufficient cash on hand and working capital, including available borrowings on loans, to operate for a period of at least one year from the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which is referred to as the “look-forward period”, as defined in GAAP. As part of this assessment, based on conditions that are known and reasonably knowable to management, it considers various scenarios, forecasts, projections, estimates and makes certain key assumptions, including the timing and nature of projected cash expenditures, its ability to reduce, delay or curtail cash outflows and its ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, among other factors. Management has prepared estimates of operations covering the look-forward period and believes that sufficient funds will be generated from operations, working capital, and its existing credit facility to fund its operations. The Company has contingency plans in which it would further reduce or defer additional expenses and cash outlays, should operations weaken beyond current forecasts.

The impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Countrywide Hardware, Inc. (“Countrywide”). Countrywide conducted its businesshas been considered in these assumptions; however, it is too early to know the full impact of COVID-19 or when the Company believes a return to more normal operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Nationwide. Nationwide was an importer and manufacturer of door, window and fencing hardware and accessories, including rollers, hinges, window operators, sash locks, custom zinc castings and door closers. Effectivemay occur. Further, as part of the Nationwide Closing Date, Countrywide sold Nationwide to an unrelated third party for approximately $22,200,000.business incentives offered in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), the Company, on April 20, 2020, received a $2.9 million Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) loan from the United States Small Business Administration (“SBA”). See Note 29 – CARES Act to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under which the Company is expected to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Customer Concentration

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, accounts receivable from The Home Depot (“THD”) was 36.8% and 38.0%, respectively, of total accounts receivable. Revenue from THD during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was 27.2% and 22.4%, respectively, of total revenue. Additionally, during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, revenue attributable to Amazon.Com, Inc (“Amazon”) was 12.1% and 8.6%, respectively, of the Company’s total net revenue. Accounts receivable attributable to Amazon at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was 12.3% and 15.8%, respectively, of total net accounts receivable. There were no other customers that accounted for more than 10% of consolidated revenue or accounts receivable during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 or 2020.

 

Management Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in those financial statements.  Certain significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, inventory, goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, contingent consideration, income taxes and deferred taxes.  Descriptions of these policies are discussed in the Company’s 20162020 Form 10-K.  Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustmentsadjusts when facts and circumstances dictate.  As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions.  Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.

NewSignificant Accounting PronouncementsPolicies

 

Recently AdoptedThe Company’s significant accounting policies are described in “Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our 2020 Form 10-K.

 

In March 2016, the FinancialLease Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-09,Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.

The standard reduces complexity in several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based compensation, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for fiscal 2017. The impact of the adoption was not materialCompany adheres to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11,Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11”).  The standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory by requiring inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value for entities using the first-in, first-out method of valuing inventory.  ASU 2015-11 eliminates other measures required by current guidance to determine net realizable value.  ASU 2015-11 is effective for fiscal 2017.  The impact of the adoption was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,Leases. This ASU is a comprehensive new leases standard that amends various aspects of existing guidance for leases and requires additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. It will require companies to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP.standards set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842 “Leases”. ASC Topic 842 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous leases’ guidance.

If the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The Company uses its best judgement when determining the incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term to the lease payments in a similar currency.

The Company’s operating leases guidance.include vehicles, office space and the use of real property. The ASUCompany has not identified any new material finance leases for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

The Company considers any options to extend the term of a lease when measuring the Right of Use lease asset.

For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had $224,000 and $234,000, respectively, in operating lease expense.

The following is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years; earlier adoption is permitted. In the financial statements in which the ASU is first applied, leases shall be measured and recognized at the beginninga maturity analysis of the earliest comparative period presented with an adjustmentannual undiscounted cash flows reconciled to equity.

In May 2014,The Company’s revenue recognition policies are detailed in its 2020 Form 10-K. The following tables present the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09,Company’s revenues recognized under ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with CustomersCustomers”,, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Florida Pneumatic

Florida Pneumatic markets its air tool products to four primary sectors within the pneumatic tool market; Retail, Automotive, Industrial and Aerospace. It also generates revenue from its Berkley products line, as well as a new Topic, ASC Topic 606, which supersedes existing accounting standards for revenue recognitionline of air filters and creates a single framework. Additional updates to Topic 606 issued by the FASB in 2015 and 2016 include the following:other OEM parts (“Other”).

 

·ASU No. 2015-14,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which defers the effective date of the new guidance such that the new provisions will now be required for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017;
·ASU No. 2016-08,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations, which clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations (reporting revenue gross versus net);
·ASU No. 2016-10,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which clarifies the implementation guidance on identifying performance obligations and classifying licensing arrangements;

The underlying principle is to use a five-step analysis of transactions to recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. The standard permits the use of either a retrospective or modified retrospective application. The Company is in the final assessment phaseof what impact, if any, the new revenue standard and related updates will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, and based on its preliminary assessment, other than additional disclosures in its Notes to its consolidated financial statements, there will be no material impact to its consolidated financial statements.The standard update, as amended, will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017.Hy-Tech

 

Hy-Tech designs, manufactures, and sells a wide range of industrial products under the brands ATP and ATSCO which are categorized as ATP for reporting purposes. In January 2017,addition to Engineered Solutions, products and components manufactured for other companies under their brands are included in the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,Intangibles – GoodwillOEM category in the table below. PTG revenue is comprised of products manufactured and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”),which simplified the testing of goodwill for impairmentsold by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measured a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for public companies for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effects that the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have on its consolidated financial statements. Hy-tech’s gear business. NUMATX, Thaxton and other peripheral product lines, such as general machining, are reported as Other.

 

Other than the aforementioned, the Company does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standard, if adopted, will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Sale of Nationwide Industries, Inc.Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company, as part of its strategic plan to focus on expanding its position in the power-tool and accessories market, sold Nationwide in February 2016. On the Nationwide Closing Date, P&F, Countrywide, Nationwide and Argosy NWI Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”), entered into a Stock Purchase and Redemption Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, after giving effect to certain contributions and redemptions of Nationwide’s common shares (“Nationwide Shares”), the Buyer acquired all of the outstanding Nationwide Shares from Countrywide (the “Acquisition”). The purchase price for the Nationwide Shares acquired in the Acquisition was approximately $22,200,000, before giving effect to an estimated working capital adjustment, as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement, of approximately $802,000 in favor of the Buyer. Further, in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company placed into escrow $1,955,000 (“escrow funds”), of which $250,000 related to the final working capital adjustment. Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the final working capital adjustment amount was determined to be approximately $75,000 in the Company’s favor. As a result, during the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, the $250,000 portion of the escrow funds was released to the Company, and the final working capital adjustment amount of $75,000 was paid to the Company by the Buyer. In connection with the Acquisition, Countrywide agreed that, should it sell the real property it owned in Tampa, Florida (the “Premises”), it will contribute an additional $400,000 into the escrow funds. In November 2016, the Premises were sold, and as a result Countrywide contributed the additional $400,000 into the aforementioned escrow funds which, at that time, aggregated to approximately $2,105,000. In accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement, in August 2017, as no claims were made against the Escrow funds, the Company received the full amount of the escrow plus interest.

At the closing of the Acquisition, after paying closing costs, the net cash received from the Buyer was approximately $18,700,000.

As Nationwide was a substantial and unique business unit of the Company, its sale was a strategic shift. Accordingly, in accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company, in 2016, classified Nationwide as a discontinued operation.

The net income from discontinued operations, net of taxes in 2016 presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss), is comprised of the following:

  January 1, 2016
through February
11, 2016
 
    
Revenue $1,830,000 
Cost of goods sold  1,177,000 
Gross margin  653,000 
Selling and general and administrative expenses  483,000 
Interest expense - net  60,000 
Income before income taxes  110,000 
Income taxes  38,000 
     
Net income $72,000 

  The Company recognized a gain of $12,185,000, on the sale of Nationwide during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, which represents the difference between the adjusted net purchase price and the carrying book value of Nationwide. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, the Company incurred an additional $14,000 in expenses related to the sale. For income tax purposes, the Company’s tax basis in Nationwide was greater than the net proceeds, thus resulting in a tax loss. This tax loss may only be applied against future capital gain transactions.  During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016;2021, there were no accounting pronouncements or other authoritative guidance issued that the Company recorded a tax benefit of $141,000, net of a valuation allowance against the gain on sale.  In November 2016, Countrywide completed the sale of the real property located in Tampa Florida, which was treated as a capital gain transaction for tax purposes.  As a result,adopted. No other new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the three-month periodfiscal quarter ended September 30, 2016, the Company removed the valuation allowance initially recorded against the tax loss, resulting in an additional $187,000 tax benefit recorded against the gainMarch 31, 2021 has or is expected to have a material impact on sale.

NOTE 4 – EARNINGS (LOSS)LOSS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings (loss)loss per common share is based only on the average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding for the periods. Diluted earnings (loss)loss per common share reflects the effect of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of options unless the effect on earnings is antidilutive.anti-dilutive.

 

Diluted earnings (loss)loss per common share is computed using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding reflects the assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of any outstanding options to purchase shares of Common Stock. The average market value for the period is used as the assumed purchase price.

NOTE 5 – EQUITY – COMMON STOCK REPURCHASE PLAN

On August 9, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 100,000 shares of its common stock over a period of up to twelve months (the “Repurchase Program”).

On August 24, 2017, the Company announced that, pursuant to the Repurchase Program, it had adopted a written trading plan in accordance with the guidelines specified under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. A plan under Rule 10b5-1 allows the Company to repurchase shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented from doing so by securities laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods. Repurchases made under the plan are subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission's regulations, as well as certain price, market, volume, and timing constraints specified in the plan. Since repurchases under the plan are subject to certain constraints, there is no guarantee as to the exact number of shares that will be repurchased under the plan.

As of September 30, 2017, the Company repurchased 12,365 shares of its Common Stock pursuant to the Repurchase Program.

Stock option compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation, including options and non-vested shares, according to the provisions of FASB ASC 718,Share Based Payment.

On September 5, 2017 (“Grant Date”), the compensation committee of Company’s Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 89,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock under the Company’s 2012 Stock Incentive Plan.  The options expire ten years from the Grant Date. The Company granted an aggregate of 55,000 of these options to its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, with the balance to non-executive employees of the Company.   AllThere were no options granted on the Grant Date vest one-third on each of the first three anniversaries of the Grant Date. Further, all options granted on the Grant Date have an exercise price of $7.09, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Grant Date.

Stock option compensation expense is attributable to the granting of, and the remaining requisite service periods of, stock options. Compensation expense attributable to stock-options was approximately $20,000 and $0or issued during the three-month periodsperiod ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Compensation expense attributable to stock-options was approximately $20,000 and $13,000 during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  The compensation expense is recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Company’s Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods.  The exercisability of the respective non-vested options, which are at pre-determined dates on a calendar year, does not necessarily correspond to the period(s) in which straight-line amortization of compensation cost is recorded. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had approximately $373,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested awards granted under its stock-based plans, which it expects to recognize over a weighted average period of 1.9 years. The expected term of stock options is based on historical exercises and terminations. The volatility is determined using historical volatilities based on historical stock prices.March 31, 2021.

The Company estimated the fair value of these options using the following assumption:

   
Risk-free interest rate 2.07%
Expected term (in years) 10 years
Volatility 87.16%
Dividend yield 2.82%

NOTE 64 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Accounting guidance defines fair value 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. Under this guidance, the Company is required to classify certain assets and liabilities based on the following hierarchy:

 

Level 1:   Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that can be assessed at the measurement date.

 

Level 2:   Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3:   Inputs reflect management'smanagement’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the instrumentsinstrument’s valuation.

 

The guidance requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort.

 

As of September 30, 2017March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2016,2020, the carrying amounts reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheetsconsolidated balance sheets for current assets and current liabilities approximated fair value due to the short-term nature of these accounts.

The fair value of the prepaid expenses and other current assets at December 31, 2016 consisted primarily of escrowed funds from the sale of Nationwide, which was estimated to be the same as its carrying value, based on Level 3 inputs. In August 2017, the Company received the entire $2,105,000, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement.

The fair value of the contingent consideration payable to the Jiffy Seller, of $706,000, included in other liabilities was determined applying Level 3 inputs. The fair value of this contingent consideration is being adjusted quarterly.

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS – (Continued)

 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include goodwill and intangible assets. Such assets are reviewed quarterly for impairment indicators. If a triggering event has occurred, the assets are re-measured when the estimated fair value of the corresponding asset group is less than the carrying value. The fair value measurements, in such instances, are based on significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).

Hardware

Prior to the Nationwide Closing Date, we conducted our Hardware business through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Countrywide Hardware, Inc. (“Countrywide”). Countrywide conducted its business operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Nationwide. Nationwide was an importer and manufacturer of door, window and fencing hardware and accessories, including rollers, hinges, window operators, sash locks, custom zinc castings and door closers. On the Nationwide Closing Date, Countrywide sold Nationwide to an unrelated third party for approximately $22,200,000. See Note 2 to consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

KEY INDICATORS

Economic MeasuresECONOMIC MEASURES

 

Much of our business is driven by the ebbs and flows of the general economic conditions in both the United States and, to a lesser extent, abroad. We focus on a wide array of customer types including but not limited to large retailers, aerospace manufacturers, large and small resellers of pneumatic tools and parts, and automotive related customers. We tend to track the general economic conditions of the United States, industrial production, and general retail sales.

 

A key economic measure relevant to us is the cost of the raw materials in our products. Key materials include metals, especially various types of steel and aluminum. Also important is the value of the United States Dollar (“USD”) in relation to the Taiwanese dollar (“TWD”), as we purchase a significant portion of our products from Taiwan. Purchases from Chinese sources are made in USD; however, if the Chinese currency, the Renminbi (“RMB”), were to be revalued against the USD, there could be a negative impact on the cost of our products. Additionally, we closely monitor the fluctuation in the Great British Pound (“GBP”) to the USD, and the GBP to TWD, both of which has hadcan have an impact on ourthe consolidated results in 2017.results. In addition, we monitor the number of operating rotary drilling rigs in the United States, as a means of gauging oil production, which is a key factor in our sales into the oil and gas exploration and extraction sector.

 

TheWe now consider tariffs a key economic measure, as a significant portion of products imported by Florida Pneumatic and to a lesser degree, Hy-Tech, are subject to these tariffs.

Lastly, the cost and availability of a quality labor pool in the countries where products and components are manufactured, both overseas as well as in the United States, could materially affect our overall results.

Operating MeasuresOPERATING MEASURES

 

Key operating measures we use to manage our operations are:are orders; shipments; development of new products; customer retention; inventory levels and productivity. These measures are recorded and monitored at various intervals, including daily, weekly and monthly. To the extent these measures are relevant;relevant, they are discussed in the detailed sections below.

 

Financial MeasuresFINANCIAL MEASURES

 

Key financial measures we use to evaluate the results of our business include:include various revenue metrics; gross margin; selling, general and administrative expenses; earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; operating cash flows and capital expenditures; return on sales; return on assets; daysdays’ sales outstanding and inventory turns. These measures are reviewed at monthly, quarterly and annual intervals and compared to historical periods as well as to established objectives. To the extent that these measures are relevant, they are discussed in the detail below.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Descriptions of these policies are discussed in the 20162020 Form 10-K.10-K, and in the notes to these consolidated financial statements. Certain of these accounting policies require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, including, but not limited to those related to bad debts, inventory reserves, goodwill and intangible assets, warranty reserves, and taxes and deferred taxes. We base our estimates on historical data and experience, when available, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the combined results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions.  Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.

 


OVERVIEW

Key factors or events impacting our third quarter 2017 results of operations were:

Decline in Florida Pneumatic’s Automotive and Retail revenue

Improvement in Hy-Tech’s gross margin

Addition of Jiffy’s operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Continuing operations

Unless otherwise discussed elsewhere in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Continued

TRENDS AND UNCERTAINTIES

COVID-19 PANDEMIC

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated the recent novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, as a global pandemic. COVID-19 was first detected in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China and continued to spread, significantly impacting various markets around the world, including the United States. Various policies and initiatives have been implemented to reduce the global transmission of COVID-19.

The impact of the COVID-19 virus and the resultant global economic down-turn has had a material impact on our results in the first quarter of 2021. There are delays in receiving containers from Asia due to a significant increase in international shipping traffic, which has caused intermittent shortages of inventory. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused many of our customers and potential customers to refuse on-site visits which is critical to generating revenue. We believe that until this pandemic subsides, these two issues will continue to affect our operations.

BOEING/AEROSPACE

The Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (“EASA”) have lifted the grounding of the 737 MAX. However, production is still very limited due to the inventory at Boeing and the reluctance of airlines to accept deliveries due to weak air travel demand. This will likely continue to have an adverse effect on our revenue. In addition, production of military and other commercial aircraft throughout the industry has slowed as well due to the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic. However, we believe thatwhen all other commercial and military production lines throughout the United States come back online, an increase in our relationships withrevenue should follow.

OIL AND GAS

We believe the primary factor contributing to the significant decline occurring in our key customers and suppliers remain satisfactory. Global oil and gas exploration and extraction have been the primary market of Hy-Tech, which until recently has begunrevenue is due to show signs of improving. Further, there remains a persistent weaknessdecline in the other marketsprice for oil and gas that Hy-Tech servesbegan in 2020 related to the COVD-19 pandemic. The profitability of crude oil production generally declines as prices fall. As a result, as prices dropped in 2020, production slowed worldwide.  This activity is most notably power generation and construction.easily measured by analyzing the number of active rotary rigs, which is discussed further below. Until these counts return to pre-pandemic levels, we will continue to be impacted negatively.

 

We elected not to renew our supply agreement with Sears, which expired on September 30, 2017. This decision was based on a number of factors including Sears’ continuing financial difficulties, the sale of the Craftsman brand to Stanley Black & Decker and our level of working capital exposure in relation to our return on that investment pertaining to Sears. There is no Sear’s inventory exposure at September 30, 2017. Further, we believe that all accounts receivable attributable to Sears, which approximates $1,100,000 at September 30, 2017, should be collected by December 31, 2017. However, at the present time, there can be no assurance that we will fully recover this.TECHNOLOGIES

The majority ofDespite the decline inongoing negative effects on the US and global economies, total fiscal first quarter 2021 revenue at Florida Pneumatic’s third quarter 2017 Retail revenue was due to the reduction in shipments to Sears this quarter, compared to the same period in 2016. As discussed above, we elected not to renew an agreement with Sears, which expired on September 30, 2017. Also impacting our Retail revenue this quarter was a decline in shipments to The Home Depot, which was due primarily to their decision to reduce the number of items offered for sale at certain locations. Additionally, we believe that the recent hurricanes, which impacted the southern portion of the United States, was a contributing factor to the decline in our Retail revenue this quarter, compared to the third quarter of 2016. A major factor contributing to the net decline in our Automotive revenue this quarter compared toPneumatic increased 8.7% over the same three-month period in 2016,2020. This improvement was driven by revenue gains in its Automotive, Retail and Industrials sectors. A decline in Aerospace revenue partially offset the above improvements. Stronger consumer demand for its AIRCAT products and, to a lesser degree, modest increased sales at our United Kingdom (“U.K.”) operations, were two major automotive parts distributors continuingthe primary factors for the increase in Automotive revenue. We believe that as the result of the ongoing battle to adjust their inventory levels of pneumatic hand tools. Partially offsetting this decline wasdisinfect and sanitize homes and businesses alike, Florida Pneumatic encountered an increase in demand, compared to the first quarter of 2020, for various “spray gun” tools and accessories which are sold into the retail channel. Stronger Industrial revenue from our UAT division headquarteredthis quarter than in the same period in the prior year, was driven primarily by increased industrial production. The Boeing Corporation is a major customer of Jiffy. The Boeing 737 MAX aircraft was grounded by the FAA and the EASA in March 2019. Although both agencies have lifted the “No Fly” ruling it imposed on all Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, allowing it to begin flights in the United Kingdom. OurIndustrial/catalog revenue increased slightly comparedStates, we believe it will take several years for the Boeing Corporation to increase its manufacturing of its 737 MAX aircraft to a volume that would be comparable to pre COVID-19 levels, and thus require our Jiffy tools. Further, the same period a year ago. We believetravel restrictions that activity in this sector has begundeveloped as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic, caused most commercial airlines to improve; however, no assurance can be given that this trend will continue. Lastly, the Jiffy acquisition in April of this yearhas enabled us to approach the aerospace sector with a much stronger brand. As a result, aerospace sales contributed nearly $2.5 million tocurtail orders for other aircraft, which also negatively impacted Florida Pneumatic’s total third quarter 2017Aerospace revenue. Lastly, orders relating to military aircraft declined, we believe due to COVID-19 constraints placed in manufacturing facilities.


Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued

 

With respect to our year to date results, seventy-five percent of the decline in our Retail revenue was due primarily to the reduction in shipments to Sears, compared to the same nine-month period in 2016. During 2016, The Home Depot rolled-out several new tools, which did not occur in 2017, accounting for much of the decline in The Home Depot’s year-to-date revenue. Additionally, year to date revenue was negatively affected by The Home Depot’s decision to reduce the number of items being offered at certain locations. We believe two major automotive distributors have been adjusting their inventory levels. As such, their decision is a primary cause of the year to date decline in our Automotive revenue. It should be noted that we have encountered increased sales to other major Automotive customers and distributors. Additionally, UAT’s 2017 year to date revenue has declined approximately 11%, when compared to the same period a year ago. Our Industrial/catalog revenue, while sluggish during the first three months of 2017, has begun to see slight improvement during the second and third quarters of 2017. Lastly, aerospace revenue, driven by the Jiffy acquisition, added more than $4.1 million to Florida Pneumatic’s year to date 2017 revenue, compared to the same period a year ago.RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

Significant components contributing to the increaseThe decline in Hy-Tech’s thirdfiscal first quarter 2017 ATP2021 total revenue, compared to the same period in 2016, include2020, was primarily due to the resurgencefollowing key factors: i) the ongoing negative effects on the US economy caused by the global COVID-19 pandemic; and ii) the severe downturn of the oil and gas market. We believe that our ATP products offering is likely to continue to struggle due to among other things, the ongoing sluggishness of the price of oil and natural gas, which in activity from a large customer acquiredturn inhibits exploration and drilling. The oil and gas sector in the ATSCO acquisitionUS has been hindered by the downward pricing pressure caused by among other things, excess supply, and ripple effects from the pandemic. This is evidenced by the significant decline in drilling rigs, which is a metric that had reduced its orders untilwe monitor. According to Baker Hughes Inc., the secondaverage number of oil rotary rigs in operation during fiscal first quarter 2021 were 302, compared to 671 during the same three-month period in 2020. Similarly, the average number of active gas rotary rigs during the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 was 90, compared to 112, during the same period in the prior year. In the aggregate, the average rotary rigs in operation during the first quarter of 2017,2021 is down by 392, or 50%, when compared to the same three-month period in 2020. As such, early in 2020 we made a decision to focus a greater portion of our product development and continues to place orders during the third quarter of 2017. Additionally, in 2016 we began to pursue alternate markets where we believed we could exploitmarketing efforts on our engineeringOEM and manufacturing expertise, and develop different applications for our tools, motors and accessories.PTG products offering. We believe the development of this new marketing strategy providesthese lines of business should provide Hy-Tech an opportunity to generate new, additional sources of revenue from new markets in 2017 and beyond. While third quarter 2017 revenue from this new initiative was $156,000, at September 30, 2017 Hy-Tech had future orders just shy of $750,000. Although Hy-Tech’s third quarter 2017 revenue has increased compared to both the first and second quarters of 2017, we believe that there continues to be an excess inventory of tools and spare parts in the distribution channels. Additionally, we believe that the turn-around activities in the oil and gas sector continue to lag, compared to historic levels, further negatively impacting Hy-Tech’s revenue. Recent hurricanes and other major storms have also impacted Hy-Tech’s revenue.future. Further, we believe lower-priced imported toolsare optimistic that as travel restrictions and spare parts are adversely impactingon-site visitation controls begin to ease, Hy-Tech’s position in the marketplace.revenue could increase.

The fluctuationslight improvement in Hy-Tech’s yearFlorida Pneumatic’s gross margin was due primarily to dateproduct mix. The improved Automotive, Industrial and Retail revenue forthis quarter, compared to the nine-monthsame three-month period ended September 30, 2017,in 2020, contributed to the overall increase in gross margin. This improvement was partially offset by reduced manufacturing at Jiffy, which in turn resulted in under absorption of its manufacturing overhead. As previously discussed, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to have an adverse effect on Hy-Tech, notably reducing revenue causing a reduction in volume through both manufacturing facilities. The reduced manufacturing volume resulted in lower absorption of manufacturing costs during the first quarter of 2021, compared to the same three-month period in 2020. Additionally, Hy-Tech recorded an increase in its obsolete, slow moving inventory charge during the first quarter of 2021, compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to a number of factors. A decline in ATP revenue from a large 2020. Lastly, Hy-Tech’s overall product/customer that was acquired in the ATSCO acquisition that had greatly reducedmix negatively impacted its purchases in the first quarter of 2017, compared to its purchasesgross margin during the first quarter of 2016. By mid-2016 this customer ceased placing orders. However, as discussed above, this customer began placing orders during the second quarter of 2017 and continued into the third quarter of this year. A major component of Hy-Tech’s revenue is derived from the oil and gas sector. Currently, we estimate that the oil and gas sector revenue accounts for approximately 30% to 35% of Hy-Tech’s total revenue. This revenue stream is driven by a number of factors, such as, the number of off-shore rigs located in the Gulf of Mexico, “turn-arounds” or plant maintenance activities and, to a lesser extent, land rigs. We believe the lag in turn-around activities, the hurricanes that severely damaged the Gulf of Mexico and many of the oil refineries in the Gulf States, along with the growing presence of lower-priced imported tools and spare parts are impacting the markets in which Hy-Tech operates. However, as discussed earlier, Hy-Tech continues to pursue alternate markets where it believes it can exploit its engineering and manufacturing expertise, and develop different applications for its tools, motors and accessories. Revenue from these new sources during the first nine months of 2017 was approximately $657,000, and is included in the ATP grouping. Lastly, Hy-Tech has recently begun a new marketing strategy that is intended to re-energize its gear and hydraulic stopper business.

Customer and product mix were the primary factors that contributed to the increase in Florida Pneumatic’s third quarter 2017 gross margin, compared to the same period a year ago. Of note, Jiffy’s gross margin approximates that of Florida Pneumatic’s non-retail product lines. As such, the gross profit associated with the Aerospace revenue this quarter exceeded the gross profits lost as the result of the decline in Retail revenue. There were no significant changes to our cost structure or selling price during this quarter.

Florida Pneumatic’s overall gross margin for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 is essentially the same as the gross margin for the same period in 2016.

Hy-Tech’s 2017 third quarter gross margin increased 19.0 percentage points, a more than 250% improvement over the same period a year ago. Factors contributing to the positive change include, among other things: (a) in the third quarter of 2016, we increased Hy-Tech’s allowance for obsolete / slow moving inventory (“OSMI”). This adjustment in 2016 was compounded by lower overhead absorption, due to reduced manufacturing, in turn due to weakness in the oil and gas and power generation sectors and (b) during 2016, we were shipping a line of very low gross margin tools to a major customer. However, during the second and third quarters of 2017, shipments of these low gross margin tools declined compared to the prior year. Additional factors contributing to the improvement in Hy-Tech’s gross margin include: (a) improved overhead absorption as manufacturing activity has increased; (b) improved inventory turns, which directly impacts fluctuations in Hy-Tech’s OSMI, and (c) the sale of the low margin tools has been lower this year compared to the prior year.

Hy-Tech’s gross margin for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, improved 9.8 percentage points, when compared to the same period a year ago. Offsetting the primary factors to this improvement discussed above, gross margin on the products being sold under its new marketing initiative are below Hy-Tech’s historical range. In addition to margins on these products increasing as the result of manufacturing experience, we also expect average margins in this category to improve as we develop additional product offerings.

Selling and general and administrative expensesSELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A” or “operating expenses”) include salaries and related costs, commissions, travel, administrative facilities, communications costs and promotional expenses for our direct sales and marketing staff, administrative and executive salaries and related benefits, legal, accounting, and other professional fees as well as general corporate overhead and certain engineering expenses.

Other significant components2020, we incurred more than $480,000 of expenses related to the change include: (i) a $17,000 reductionrelocation and set up the two gear businesses that were acquired in non-Jiffylate 2019. Additionally, we reduced our compensation expenses whichby $246,000. Compensation expense is comprised of base salaries and wages, accrued performance-based bonus incentives and associated payroll taxes and employee benefits; (ii) a decreasebenefits. A reduction in accrued performance-based bonus incentives was the bulk of the savings. Further, depreciation expense decline by $40,000. Partially offsetting the above reductions of operating expenses was an increase in variable expenses of $78,000, due primarily to lower Retail revenue; (iii) a decrease$103,000, driven by improved revenue this quarter in professional fees of $56,000 and (iv) a reduction in amortization and depreciation expenses of $60,000. These reductions were partially offset by an increase in corporate related expenses of $24,000.

As noted above, the most significant component to the net increase was the addition of Jiffy, with year to date 2017 SG&A of approximately $1,025,000. Other significant componentsprior year. Variable expenses include reductions in: (i) non-Jiffy compensation expenses of $74,000; (ii) variable expenses of $300,000, due primarily to lower Retail revenue; (iii) depreciationamong other things, commissions, freight out, travel, advertising, shipping supplies and amortization of $236,000, due mostly to the reduction in Hy-Tech’s intangible assets, which were written down in 2016; and (iv) corporate related expenses of $80,000. The reductions were partially offset by an increase in professional fees of $381,000, which include fees and expenses related to the Jiffy Acquisition and recruitment fees for executive positions at Hy-Tech.

Impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets - 2016

During the second quarter of 2016, we determined that an interim impairment analysis of the goodwill recorded in connection with Hy-Tech and ATSCO was necessary. As a result of the aforementioned, it was determined that Hy-Tech's short and long-term projections at that time had indicated an inability to generate sufficient discounted future cash flows to support the recorded amounts of goodwill, other intangible assets and other long-lived assets necessitating the impairment charge. Accordingly, adhering to current accounting literature, we recorded an impairment charge of $8,311,000 relating to goodwill and other intangible assets during the second quarter of 2016.

Other expense (income), net

The three-month period ended September 30, 2017 included $11,000 consisting primarily of an adjustment to the fair value of the contingent consideration obligation to the Jiffy Seller. During the same period in 2016, the most significant factor contributing to the net Other income was rental income of real property that was sold in November of 2016. There is no income of a similar nature for 2017.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, our Other expense (income), net, is primarily the fair value adjustment discussed above partially offsetting the receipt of the balance of an escrow related to the sale of the real property that was located in Tampa, Florida and used by Nationwide Industries Inc. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion. The amount for the same period in 2016 was the net rental income on the real property that was sold in November of 2016.warranty costs.

Primarily due toThe Applicable Margin, as defined in our Credit Agreement was the result of the sale of Nationwide and the real property located in Tampa, Florida, occurring in February and November 2016, respectively, our total bank borrowings have been minimal. However, as discussed in Note 3 - Acquisition, to our consolidated financial statements, on April 5, 2017, we purchased the net assets of the Jiffy business and real property located in Carson City, Nevada. The funding for this transaction was from our Revolver Loan, which is our short-term borrowing.

In accordance with accounting guidance we have reported our short-term and term loan interest expense incurredsame during the period January 1, 2016 through February 11, 2016, which was the effective date of sale of Nationwide, in Discontinued operations. Further, as the result of the Companythree-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and Capital One, National Association (“Capital One”, or the “Bank”) agreeing to significantly modify the Credit Agreement, as defined below in our Liquidity and Capital Resources, we were required to write down and recognize as interest expense the debt issue costs associated with the then existing Credit Agreement. These costs are identified in the table above as “Amortization expense of debt issue costs”. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion on the sale of Nationwide. See Liquidity and Capital Resources elsewhere in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis section for further information regarding our bank loans.

Our2020. The average balance of short-term borrowings during the three and nine-monththree-month periods ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and 2020, were $2,167,000 and $6,281,000, respectively. As the average balance of our short-term borrowings was $3,635,000 and $3,263,000, respectively,significantly lower during the first three months of 2021, compared to $2,585,000 and $3,593,000, respectively, during the same periodsthree-month period in 2016.2020, our short-term interest expense (revolver borrowings) declined.

As discussed in Note 9 – CARES Act, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, in late April 2020, we borrowed approximately $2.9 million from BNB Bank as provided under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act. The PPP Loan, as defined in Note 9, accrues interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum. Pursuant to the Flexibility Act, as defined in Note 9, interest on any unforgiven amount is deferred until the forgiveness determination is made by the SBA. We will continue to accrue interest charges until a final determination is received from the SBA.

Lastly, we and our bank amended the Credit Agreement in February 2019. The debt issue costs are associated with such amendment.

 

Income taxesINCOME TAXES

 

On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was signed into law. The CARES Act includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of the employer portion of certain payroll taxes, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitation and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property.

At the end of each interim reporting period, we estimate anthe Company estimates its effective tax rate expected to be applied for the full year. This estimate is used to determine the income tax provision or benefit applicable to continuing operations, on a year-to-date basis and may change in subsequent interim periods. Additionally, in the year to date computation we included the impact of options that expired, were exercised, or were forfeited. The aggregate net effect of these options reduced our deferred tax asset and increased the tax provision by approximately $116,000. As a result of the aforementioned,Accordingly, our effective tax rate applicable to continuing operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 was 97.1% and 136.5%, respectively. For the same periods in 2016 our effective tax rate applicable to continuing operations was 27.2% and 33.9%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates were also affected by state taxes, non-deductible expenses and foreign tax rate differentials.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Discontinued operations - 2016

Nationwide’s results of operations in our consolidated financial statements and Note 2, presents their revenue and cost of goods sold for the period January 1, 2016 through February 11, 2016. The SG&A incurred during the same period includes that of Nationwide plus $19,000 of expenses incurred at the corporate level that is specifically attributable to Nationwide. In accordance with current accounting guidance, we included, as part of discontinued operations, all interest expense incurred attributable to our Bank borrowings during the period January 1, 2016 through February 11, 2016.  Additionally, we initially recognized an after tax gain of $12,171,000, on the sale of Nationwide. For income tax purposes, the Company’s tax basis in Nationwide was greater than the net proceeds, thus resulting in a tax loss. This gain represents the difference between the adjusted net purchase price and the carrying value of Nationwide. Further, in 2016, Countrywide completed the sale of the Tampa, Florida real property, which was treated as a capital gain transaction for tax purposes.  During the three-month period ended September 30, 2016,March 31, 2021 was a tax benefit of 18.6%, compared to tax benefit of 40.0% for the Company removedthree-month period ended March 31, 2020. Included in the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 is a valuation allowance initially recorded againstdiscrete item for net operating loss carrybacks under the CARES Act. The effective tax loss, resulting in an additional gain on sale $187,000. rates for all periods presented were impacted primarily by state taxes, and non-deductible expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

We monitor such metrics as days’ sales outstanding, inventory requirements, inventory turns, estimated future purchasing requirements and capital expenditures to project liquidity needs, as well as evaluate return on assets. Our primary sources of funds are operating cash flows, existing working capital and our Revolver Loan (“Revolver”) with our Bank.

 

We gauge our liquidity and financial stability by various measurements, some of which are shown in the following table:

 

  September 30, 2017  December 31, 2016 
Working Capital $24,490,000  $28,373,000 
Current Ratio   3.81 to 1   5.60 to 1 
Shareholders’ Equity $47,221,000  $47,590,000 
  March 31, 2021  December 31, 2020 
Working capital $20,773,000  $21,258,000 
Current ratio  2.90 to 1   3.57 to 1 
Shareholders’ equity $41,261,000  $41,538,000 

Credit facility

 

In October 2010, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (as amended from time to time, “Credit Agreement”) with an affiliate of Capital One. TheOur Credit Agreement provides for Revolver borrowings, which are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, mortgages on its real property (“Real Property”), inventory and equipment. P&F and certain of its subsidiaries are borrowers under the Credit Agreement, and their obligations are cross-guaranteed by certain other subsidiaries.

At our option, Revolver borrowings will bear interest at either LIBOR (“London InterBank Offered Rate”) or the Base Rate, as the termFacility is defined in the Credit Agreement, plus the Applicable Margin, as defined in the Credit Agreement. The interest rate, either LIBOR or Base Rate, which is added to the Applicable Margin, is at our option. We are limited in the number of LIBOR borrowings.

Contemporaneously with the acquisition of the Jiffy business discussed in Note 38 to the consolidated financial statements.

Payroll Protection Program Loan

On April 20, 2020, we received a $2.9 million PPP Loan, as provided pursuant to the CARES Act. This loan obtained from BNB Bank is unsecured and is guaranteed by the SBA. See Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, effective as of the April 5, 2017 closing date of the Jiffy Acquisition (the “Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement”), with Capital One which amended and restated the previous amendment to the Credit Agreement.

The Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, among other things, amended the Credit Agreement by: (1) increasing the maximum amount we can borrow under the Revolver Commitment (as defined) from $10,000,000 to $16,000,000, subject to certain borrowing base criteria, and (2) modifying certain borrowing base criteria as well as financial and other covenants.

29

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES – (Continued)

The net funds of approximately $18,700,000 provided by the sale of Nationwide in 2016 were used to pay down the Revolver, Capex loans and the Term Loan A; however, we and the Bank agreed to have $100,000 remain outstanding under the Term Loan A, rather than pay it off in full, thus providing the Company and Capital One the ability to potentially increase future term loan borrowings more efficiently and at lower costs.

We funded the $7,000,000 Jiffy acquisition from Revolver borrowings. Cash flows from operations thereafter and receipt in August of the $2,100,000 escrow from the sale of Nationwide have reduced our Revolver balance to $2,334,000 at September 30, 2017. Revolver borrowings can be at either LIBOR or at the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement with Capital One. Applicable LIBOR Margins in effect at September 30, 2017 was 1.75%, compared to 1.50% at December 31, 2016. The Applicable Base Rate Margins in effect as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were 0.75% and 0.50%, respectively.for further discussion.

 

Cash flows

 

During the nine-monththree-month period ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, our net cash decreasedincreased to $1,205,000$1,047,000 from $3,699,000 at$904,000 on December 31, 2016.2020. Our total bank debt, which includes borrowings under the CARES Act, at September 30, 2017, primarily driven by the Jiffy acquisition, whichMarch 31, 2021 was discussed in Note 3 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, was $2,434,000,$6,410,000 compared to $100,000$4,303,000 at December 31, 2016.2020. The total debt to total book capitalization (total debt divided by total debt plus equity) at September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 was 4.9%,13.4% compared to 0.2%9.4% at December 31, 2016.2020.

 

InAt March 2016,31, 2021, our Board of Directors approved the initiation of a dividend policy under which the Company intendsshort-term or Revolver borrowing was $3,481,000 compared to declare quarterly cash dividends to its stockholders in the amount of $0.05 per quarter. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, our Board of Directors voted to approve the payment of three quarterly dividends. As such, in February 2017, May 2017,$1,374,000, at December 31, 2020. Additionally, at March 31, 2021 and August 2017, we paid a $0.05 per share dividend to the shareholders of record. The aggregate of such dividend paymentsDecember 31, 2020, there was approximately $542,000. Our Board of Directors expects$12,011,000 and $11,971,000, respectively, available to maintain this dividend policy; however,us under the future declaration of dividends under this policy is dependent upon several factors, which includes such things as our overall financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors our board may deemed relevant.  

We believe we will be able to fund the repurchase of the remaining shares in accordance with our Repurchase Program, as discussed in Note 5 – Equity – Common Stock Repurchase Plan.Revolver arrangement.

 

During the nine-monththree-month period ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, we used $444,000$68,000 for capital expenditures, compared to $894,000$658,000 during the same period in the prior year. Capital expenditures for the balance of 2017 are2021 is expected to be approximately $500,000,$800,000, some of which may be financed through our credit facilities with Capital One Bank or financed through independent third partythird-party financial institutions. The remaining 20172021 capital expenditures will likely be for machinery and equipment, tooling, and computer hardware and software.

 

We believe that net cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our Credit Facility should provide sufficient cash to fund our consolidated cost structure for at least the next 12 months from the date of this filing.

Business disruptions or other costs associated with information technology, cyber-attacks, system implementations, data privacy, or catastrophic losses. We rely heavily on computer systems to manage and operate our businesses, and record and process transactions. Computer systems are important to production planning, customer service and order fulfillment among other business-critical processes. Consistent and efficient operation of the computer hardware and software systems is imperative to the successful sales and earnings performance. Despite efforts to prevent such situations, and loss control and risk management practices that partially mitigate these risks, our systems may be affected by damage or interruption from, among other causes, fire, natural disasters, power outages, system failures or computer viruses. Computer hardware and storage equipment that is integral to efficient operations, such as e-mail, telephone, and other functionality, is concentrated in certain physical locations in which we operate.
