3. Recent Accounting Standards

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2017,June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"(the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU"(“ASU”) 2017-12, Derivatives and HedgingNo. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 815)326): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. This Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU provides new guidance about income statement classification and eliminates2016-13”), which requires the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. The entire change in fair value for qualifying hedge instruments included in the effectiveness will be recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) and amounts deferred in OCI will be reclassified to earnings in the same income statement line item in which the earnings effectuse of the hedged item is reported.current expected credit loss impairment model to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The guidance is effective for interimmodel requires an estimate of expected credit losses, measured over the contractual life of an asset, that considers information about past events, current conditions and annual periods fora forecast of future economic conditions. The Company adopted the Companystandard on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted.2020. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU tothe standard did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (“ASU 2016-16”). This ASU requires entities to recognize the income tax consequences of many intercompany asset transfers at the transaction date. The seller and buyer will immediately recognize the current and deferred income tax consequences of an intercompany transfer of an asset other than inventory. The tax consequences were previously deferred until the asset is sold to a third party or recovered through use. This guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. We are currently evaluating this guidance and the impact it will have on our consolidated financial statements.

 

As a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company has updated its significant accounting policy related to trade account receivables and allowances for credit losses as of March 31, 2020 from what was previously disclosed in our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 as follows:

All trade account receivables are reported net of allowances for credit losses. The allowances for credit losses represent management’s best estimate of the credit losses expected from our trade account receivables over the life of the underlying assets. Assets with similar risk characteristics are pooled together for determination of their current expected credit losses. We regularly perform detailed reviews of our pooled assets to evaluate the collectability of receivables based on a combination of past, current, and future financial and qualitative factors that may affect customers’ ability to pay. In circumstances where we are aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, a specific reserve is recorded against amounts due to reduce the recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected.

In August 2016,2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-15, Statement of Cash FlowsASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 230)820): Classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments (a consensus of the emerging issues task force) (“ASU 2016-15”). This ASU addresses the following eight specific cash flow issues: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relationDisclosure Framework Changes to the effective interest rate ofDisclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The amendments in ASU 2018-13 modify the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds fromdisclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The Company adopted the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies (including bank-owned life insurance policies); distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. This guidance will be effective for the Companystandard on January 1, 2018. We are currently evaluating2020. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). The ASU requires management to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for all operating leases. The ASU is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods therein on a modified retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and expect to recognize a significant lease obligation upon adoption.

In May 2014,March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 Revenue2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). This ASU provides relief from Contracts with Customers (“certain accounting consequences that could result from the global markets’ anticipated transition away from the use of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The relief provided by this ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 provides a single principles-based, five-step modelis elective and applies to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be applied to all contracts with customers.discontinued because of reference rate reform.

4. Revenue Recognition

We sell our products through3 primary commercial channels: original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), industrial distributors and direct to end users. Each of our segments sells similar products, which are balanced across end-user industries including, without limitation, energy, food processing, general industrial, material handling, mining, transportation, industrial automation, robotics, medical devices, and turf & garden.

As the Company’s standard payment terms are less than one year, the Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-32-18 to not assess whether a contract and (v) recognize revenue when each performance obligationhas a significant financing component. Revenue is satisfied. Revenue will be recognized when promised goods or services arecontrol of the product is transferred to the customer (i.e., when the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied), which typically occurs at shipment from the Company’s manufacturing site or delivery to the customer’s named location. In determining whether control has transferred, the Company considers if there is a present right to payment and legal title, along with risks and rewards of ownership having transferred to the customer. In certain circumstances, the Company manufactures customized product without alternative use for its customers, which would generally result in anthe transfer of control over time.  The Company has evaluated the amount of revenue subject to recognition over time and concluded that reflectsit is immaterial.

The following table disaggregates our revenue for each reportable segment. The Company believes that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the consideration expecteddisclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

A contract asset is created when the Company beginning on January 1, 2018.  satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good to the customer. Contract assets may represent conditional or unconditional rights to consideration. A right is conditional, and recorded as a contract asset, if for example the Company must first satisfy another performance obligation in the contract before it is entitled to payment from the customer. Contract assets are transferred to accounts receivable once the right becomes unconditional. A right is unconditional if nothing other than the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due. If the Company receives a customer payment prior to satisfying a performance obligation or in excess of estimates of what the Company expects to be entitled to, the payment is recorded as a contract liability.Contracts with payment in arrears are recognized as receivables.

The Company commenced its assessmentopening and closing balances of ASU 2014-09 during the second half of 2015 and developed a project plan to guide the implementation. The project plan includes analyzing the ASU’s impact on the Company’s contract portfolio, surveying the Company’s business unitsliability and discussing the various revenue streams, completing contract reviews, comparing historical accounting policies and practices to the requirements of the new guidance, identifying potential differences from applying the requirements of the new guidance to its contracts and updating and providing training on its accounting policy. As the Company continues its evaluation, it is also identifying and preparing to implement changes to accounting policies, business processes and internal controls to support the new accounting and disclosure requirements.

The company does not expectrevenue recognized during the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Inthree-month periods ended March 2016,31, 2020 and 2019 that was included in contract liabilities at the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). The updated guidance revises aspects of stock-based compensation guidance which include income tax consequences, classification of awards as equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017 which resulted in the recognition of excess tax benefits in our provision for income taxes with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations rather than paid-in capital and was not material for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. Additionally, our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows now present excess tax benefits as an operating activity, effective January 1, 2017. Finally, the Company elected to continue to estimate forfeitures based on historical data and recognizes forfeiture compensation expense over the vesting periodbeginning of the award. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impactperiod amounted to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11”). Under this guidance, entities utilizing the first-in-first-out (“FIFO”) or average cost method should measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value, whereas net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal$2.2 million, and transportation. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.$2.1 million, respectively.

 

 

4.5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, as determined by either the principal market or the most advantageous market. Inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values are classified based on a three-level hierarchy, as follows:

Level 1- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 1- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2- Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived,

Level 2- Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived.

Level 3- Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

Level 3- Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.equivalents and are classified as Level 1.

The carrying values of financial instruments, including accounts receivable, cash equivalents, accounts payable, and other accrued liabilities approximate fair value. Debt under the Company’s 2015 Credit Agreement approximates the fair value due to the variable rate and the fact that the agreement was renegotiated in December 2016 and there have been no significant changes in our credit rating or pricing of similar debt.

The Company determines the fair value of financial instruments using quoted market prices whenever available. When quoted market prices are not available for various types of financial instruments (such as forwards, options and swaps), the Company uses standard models with market-based inputs, which take into account the present value of estimated future cash flows and the ability of the Company or the financial counterparty to perform. For interest rate and cross currency swaps, the significant inputs to these models are interest rate curves for discounting future cash flows and are adjusted for credit risk. For forward foreign currency contracts, the significant inputs are interest rate curves for discounting future cash flows and exchange rate curves of the foreign currency for translating future cash flows. See additional discussion of the Company’s use of financial instruments including a cross-currency swapswaps and interest rate swaps included in Note 15.

6. Acquisitions

On December 30, 2016, we acquired the shares and certain assets and liabilities of the Stromag business from GKN plc., and as a result, the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect Stromag’s results of operations from the beginning of business on December 30, 2016 forward. Stromag is a leading global manufacturer of highly engineered clutches and brakes, couplings, and limit switches for use in a variety of end markets including renewable energy, crane & hoist, and marine. We refer to this transaction as the Stromag Acquisition.

As of September 30, 2017, the allocation of the purchase price for the Stromag Acquisition remains preliminary as the company continues to evaluate the fair value of certain inventories located in foreign jurisdictions. The fair value of all the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities is provisional pending finalization of the Company’s acquisition accounting. The Company believes that such preliminary allocations provide a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, but the Company is waiting for additional information necessary to finalize fair value. The Company recorded certain immaterial measurement period adjustments during the quarter ended September 30, 2017. The preliminary purchase price allocations below include such adjustments.

Customer relationships are subject to amortization which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 15 years, which represents the anticipated period over which the Company estimates it will benefit from the acquired assets.

The following table sets forth the unaudited pro forma results of operations of the Company for the quarter and year to date periods ended September 30, 2016, as if the Company had acquired Stromag at the beginning of the period. The pro forma information contains the actual operating results of the Company, including Stromag, adjusted to include the pro forma impact of (i) additional depreciation expense as a result of estimated depreciation based on the fair value of fixed assets and; (ii) additional expense as a result of the estimated amortization of identifiable intangible assets; (iii) additional interest expense for borrowings under the Credit Agreement associated with the Stromag Acquisition and (iv) inventory fair value adjustment. These pro forma amounts do not purport to be indicative of the results that would have actually been obtained if the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the period or that may be obtained in the future.

9. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

ChangesThe Company conducts an annual impairment review of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in October of each year, unless events occur which trigger the need for an interim impairment review.  The 2019 annual goodwill from January 1, 2017 through September 30, 2017 wereimpairment review indicated that the JVS reporting unit’s fair value exceeded its carrying value by less than 10%. All other reporting units had fair values that exceeded their carrying value by 10% or more.

The Company considered the recent economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to be a triggering event for the JVS business unit and, as follows:a result, the Company performed an interim impairment review. As a result of both the COVID-19 related economic downturn and its impact on JVS’s anticipated financial results, the Company concluded that it is more likely than not that the JVS reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value and performed an interim impairment review for both JVS’s goodwill and tradename intangible asset. As a result of the interim impairment testing performed, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $8.4 million and $139.1 million for indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill, respectively.  

The Company estimated the fair value of the JVS reporting unit using both the discounted cash flow model and the market approach. The Company estimated the value of JVS’s indefinite-lived tradename intangible asset using a discounted cash flow model.  The determination of the fair value using the discounted cash flow model requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenues, profit margins, and discount rates. The determination of the fair value using the market approach requires management to make significant assumptions related to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples. The Company estimates future cash flows based upon historical results and current market projections, discounted at a market comparable rate.

Key assumptions developed by management and used in the interim quantitative analysis included the following:

Concentrations

Financial instruments, which are potentially subject to counter party performance and concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. The Company manages these risks by conducting credit evaluations of customers prior to delivery or commencement of services. When the Company enters into a sales contract, collateral is normally not required from the customer. Payments are typically due within 30 days of billing. An allowance for potential credit losses is maintained, and losses have historically been within management’s expectations. While the Company did not have any customers that represented total sales greater than 10% for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Gearing business had one customer that approximated 10% of total sales for that segment during the quarter ended September 30, 2017.

The Company is also subject to counter party performance risk of loss in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments, such as cash and investments. Cash and cash equivalents are held by well-established financial institutions and invested in AAA rated mutual funds. The Company is exposed to swap counterparty credit risk with well-established financial institutions.

When quoted market prices are all major internationalnot available for various types of financial institutions. Theinstruments (such as forwards, options and swaps), the Company is exposed to credit loss inuses standard models with market-based inputs, which take into account the eventpresent value of nonperformance by these counterparties. The Company continually monitors its positionsestimated future cash flows and the ability of Altra or the financial counterparty to perform. For interest rate swaps, the significant inputs to these models are interest rate curves for discounting future cash flows that are adjusted for credit ratingsrisk. For forward foreign currency contracts, the significant inputs are interest rate curves for discounting future cash flows, and exchange rate curves of its counterparties, and does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties.foreign currency for translating future cash flows. For designated hedging relationships, the Company formally documents the hedging relationship and its risk management objective and strategy for undertakingconsistent with the hedge,requirements of ASC 815, Derivatives

For net investment hedges, changes in the fair value of the effective portion of the derivatives’ gains or losses are reported as foreign currency translation gains or losses in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCIL”). The gains or losses on derivative instruments reported in AOCIL are reclassified to earnings in the period in which earnings are affected by the underlying item, such as a disposal or substantial liquidations of the entities being hedged.

During the first quarter of 2020, the global economy declined substantially due to the impact of COVID-19. This decline resulted in a significant increase in the value of the U.S. dollar. The appreciation of the U.S. dollar resulted in the Company’s cross currency interest rate swaps being substantially in-the-money. Given the increased cash value of the hedges and the Company’s overall desire to strengthen its cash position, the Company entered into a cross-currency interest rate swap that converts $100.0 million of U.S. dollar denominated floating interest payments to functional currency (euro) fixed interest payments duringterminated the life of the hedging instrument. In addition, the Company has two cross-currency interest rate swaps that convert an additional $70.0 million of the U.S. dollar denominated floating interest payments to functional currency (euro) floating interest payments during the lifefirst quarter of 2020. The Company received the hedging instruments. The effective period of onecash value of the cross-currency interest rate swaps of approximately $56.2 million upon termination. In addition, the Company paid the interest owed and received the interest due, resulting in the amountrecognition of $30approximately $3.3 million (the “Initial Swap”) that the Company entered in to asnet interest income and paid termination fees of December 21, 2016 expired as of June 30, 2017. The Company net settled the Initial Swap andapproximately $0.9 million. As a new $30 million cross-currency swap transaction was entered into which will amortize down to $20 million after six-months. The effective periodresult of the secondtermination of these two cross-currency interest rate swaps in the amount of $40 million expires on December 31, 2018. As changes in foreign exchange and interest rates impact the future cash flow of interest payments, the hedges are intended to offset changes in cash flows attributable to interest rate and foreign exchange movements.

The Company designated the $100.0 million swap as a cash flow hedge, with the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction impacts earnings.  There were no amounts recorded for ineffectiveness for the periods reported herein related to the cross-currency interest rate swaps.

16. Commitments and Contingencies

General Litigation

The Company is involved in various pending legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of business. These proceedings primarily involve commercial claims, product liability claims, personal injury claims, and workers’ compensation claims. None of these legal proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. WithWith respect to these proceedings, management believes that the Company will prevail, has adequate insurance coverage or has established appropriate reserves to cover potential liabilities. Any costs that management estimates may be paid related to these proceedings or claims are accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. There can be no assurance, however, as to the ultimate outcome of any of these matters, and if all or substantially all of these legal proceedings were to be determined adversely to the Company, there could be a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. We have established loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. There were no material amounts accrued in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet for potential litigation as of September 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016. For matters where a reserve has not been established and for which we believe a loss is reasonably possible, as well as for matters where a reserve has been recorded but for which an exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued is reasonably possible, we believe that such losses, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Our estimates regarding potential losses and materiality are based on our judgment and assessment of the claims utilizing currently available information. Although we will continue to reassess our reserves and estimates based on future developments, our objective assessment of the legal merits of such claims may not always be predictive of the outcome and actual results may vary from our current estimates. We will continue to consider the applicable guidance in ASC 450-20, based on the facts known at the time of our future filings, as it relates to legal contingencies, and will adjust our disclosures as may be required under the guidance.

There were 0 material amounts accrued in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for potential litigation as of March 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

The Company also risks exposure to product liability claims in connection with products it has sold and those sold by businesses that the Company acquired. Although in some cases third parties have retained responsibility for product liability claims relating to products manufactured or sold prior to the acquisition of the relevant business and in other cases the persons from whom the Company has acquired a business may be required to indemnify the Company for certain product liability claims subject to certain caps or limitations on indemnification, the Company cannot assure that those third parties will in fact satisfy their obligations with respect to liabilities retained by them or their indemnification obligations. If those third parties become unable to or otherwise do not comply with their respective obligations including indemnity obligations, or if certain product liability claims for which the Company is obligated were not retained by third parties or are not subject to these indemnities, the Company could become subject to significant liabilities or other adverse consequences. Moreover, even in cases where third parties retain

The Company currently is not undertaking any material remediation or investigations and the costs or liability in connection with potential contamination conditions at these facilities cannot be predicted at this time because the potential existence of contamination has not been investigated or not enough is known about the environmental conditions or likely remedial requirements. Currently, other parties with contractual liability are addressing or have plans or obligations to address those contamination conditions that may pose a material risk to human health, safety or the environment.

Business Segments

The Company currently operates through three business segments that are alignedMotion Industries. Many of our customers operate globally across a large number of industries, ranging from transportation, turf and agriculture, energy and mining to factory automation, medical and robotics. Our relationships with key product typesthese customers often span multiple decades, which we believe reflects the high level of performance, quality and end markets served:

Couplings, Clutches & Brakes.

Couplings are the interface between two shafts, which enable power to be transmitted from one shaft to the other. Clutches in this segment are devices which use mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, or friction type connections to facilitate engaging or disengaging two rotating members. Brakes are combinations of interacting parts that work to slow or stop machinery.  Products in this segment are generally used in heavy industrial applications and energy markets.

Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes.

Products in this segment include brakes and clutches that are used to electronically slow, stop, engage or disengage equipment utilizing electromagnetic friction type connections.   Products in this segment are used in industrial and commercial markets including agricultural machinery, material handling, motion control, and turf & garden.

Gearing.

Gears are utilized to reduce the speed and increase the torque of an electric motor or engine to the level required to drive a particular piece of equipment.  Gears producedservice we deliver, supplemented by the Company are primarily utilized in industrial applications.

Business Outlook

 


Business Outlook

Our future financial performance depends, in large part, on conditions in the markets that we serve and on conditions in the U.S., European, and global economies in general.  During the quarter ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic affected our results of operations as we saw continued improvement in certain of our end markets that previously had been challenged. As our markets strengthen, we expect to benefit increasingly from our workexperienced temporary facility shutdowns, lower factory utilization rates, and some secondary impacts on customer demand.  For example, during the past few years on our facility consolidation, supply chainFebruary to April period, 13 of Altra’s 53 global manufacturing facilities were temporarily shut down for varying lengths of time as a result of the pandemic and local government mandates.  The vast majority of the affected manufacturing facilities are now open and operational excellence initiatives. Moreover,again.  In the first quarter, Altra formed a Pandemic Response Team to identify and assess risks and developed countermeasures following guidance from national, state and local governmental and health authorities. We also formed a Business Continuity Task Force charged with ensuring continuity of supply for our customers. In addition, we believealso have taken several proactive measures to protect the Company’s balance sheet and strengthen its liquidity position, including:

Accelerating cost reductions through corporate furloughs, merit increase suspensions, executive wage rollbacks, discretionary spending reductions and savings as a result of suspending corporate travel,


Leveraging government work programs and tax deferrals and extensions to the extent they do not incur interest rate fees or penalties,

Taking a $100 million draw down on the Altra Revolving Credit Facility (as defined herein) in March 2020, $50 million of which was subsequently paid back after the close of the quarter, and

Terminating Altra’s cross-currency net investment hedge, which resulted in a $56.2 million cash benefit.

The COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on the economic environment remain extremely fluid and it is difficult to predict with certainty what unforeseen circumstances may develop as we progress through the remainder of the year.  As a result, we will continue to proceed cautiously by managing our cost structure and cash flows and prioritizing debt reduction.  In addition, we are now in aimplementing strategic plans to best position Altra to capitalize on the positive momentum in the industrial economy by driving growth initiatives. To this end, our salesadapt to these changing conditions and engineering teams are targeting specific strategic end markets with focused activities to generate new opportunities. We continue to be encouraged by the progress of the integration ofserve our Stromag acquisitioncustomers and we have already experienced an increase in cross-selling opportunities. We continue to seek further acquisitions, but remain highly disciplined in that pursuit.  community.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect our reported amounts of assets, revenues and expenses, as well as related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on past experiences and other assumptions we believe to be appropriate, and we evaluate these estimates on an on-going basis. See the discussion of critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. There2019. Except as otherwise noted below, there have been no changes in the identification or application of the Company’s critical accounting policies during the quarter ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2020.

Impairment of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

 

The Company conducts an annual impairment review of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in October of each year, unless events occur which trigger the need for an interim impairment review.  The 2019 annual goodwill impairment review indicated that the JVS reporting unit’s fair value exceeded its carrying value by less than 10%. All other reporting units had fair values that exceeded their carrying value by 10% or more.

The Company considered the recent economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to be a triggering event for the JVS business unit and, as a result, the Company performed an interim impairment review. As a result of both the COVID-19 related economic downturn and its impact on JVS’s anticipated financial results, the Company concluded that it is more likely than not that the JVS reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value and performed an interim impairment review for both JVS’s goodwill and tradename intangible asset. As a result, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $8.4 million and $139.1 million for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, respectively.

The Company estimated the fair value of the JVS reporting unit using both the discounted cash flow model and the market approach. The Company estimated the value of JVS’s indefinite-lived tradename intangible asset using a discounted cash flow model.  The determination of the fair value using the discounted cash flow model requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenues, profit margins, and discount rates. The determination of the fair value using the market approach requires management to make significant assumptions related to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) multiples. The Company estimates future cash flows based upon historical results and current market projections, discounted at a market comparable rate.

Key assumptions developed by management and used in the interim quantitative analysis included the following:

Near-term revenue declines in 2020 with later-term improvements over the projection period;

Adjusted profit margins over the projection period, due to revenue adjustments and maintained investment in the business; and

Market-based discount rates.

Market-based discount rates.

Reduced EBITDA multiple, due to current market conditions.

Depending on its duration and the severity of its economic impact, the COVID-19 pandemic may trigger additional interim impairment reviews in future periods.

Income Taxes

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law in the U.S. to provide certain relief as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, governments around the world have enacted or implemented various forms of tax relief measures in response to the economic conditions in the wake of COVID-19. Altra has determined that neither the CARES Act nor changes to income tax laws or regulations in other jurisdictions had a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter-ended March 31, 2020.

Trade Account Receivables

As a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company has updated its significant accounting policy related to trade account receivables and allowances for credit losses as of March 31, 2020 from what was previously disclosed in our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 as follows:

All trade account receivables are reported net of allowances for credit losses. The allowances for credit losses represent management’s best estimate of the credit losses expected from our trade account receivables over the life of the underlying assets. Assets with similar risk characteristics are pooled together for determination of their current expected credit losses. We regularly perform detailed reviews of our pooled assets to evaluate the collectability of receivables based on a combination of past, current, and future financial and qualitative factors that may affect customers’ ability to pay. In circumstances where we are aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, a specific reserve is recorded against amounts due to reduce the recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected.

Net SalesThe decrease in net sales during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 is primarily due to the decline in sales at our JVS business unit due to the decline in the class 8 truck market, the decline in sales in our oil and gas end market as a result of the decline in oil prices globally, and the overall economic decline due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Changes in foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on net sales of $7.0 million, primarily driven by the Euro. This was partially offset by price which had a favorable impact of $3.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Restructuring costs.    During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, was due to the acquisition of Stromag, price increases, higher sales levels in several end markets and the favorable effect of changes in foreign exchange rates of $2.5 million. Of the increase in sales, approximately $34.9 million relates to the inclusion of additional saleswe commenced a restructuring plan (“2017 Altra Plan”) as a result of the acquisition of Stromag for the quarter. In addition, price increases contributed $1.7 million to the increase during the quarter. The rest of the increase related to a recovery in sales levels in various end markets in the Couplings, Clutches, and Brakes business segment.

During 2015, the Company adopted a restructuring plan (“2015 Altra Plan”) in response to weak demandAcquisition and to make certain adjustments to improve business effectiveness, reduce the number of facilities and streamline the Company’s cost structure.rationalize our global renewable energy business.  The actions taken pursuant to the 20152017 Altra Plan included reducing headcount, facility consolidations and limiting discretionary spending to improve profitability. Approximately $1.9 millionthe elimination of the decrease is related to activitycertain costs. The total 2017 Altra Plan savings are in the Couplings, Clutches and Brakes segment not present in the current quarter under the 2015 Altra Plan. The Company doesline with our expectations. We do not expect to incur any additional material costs as a result of the 20152017 Altra Plan. 

During 2019, we commenced a restructuring plan (“2019 Altra Plan”) to drive efficiencies, reduce the number of facilities and optimize our operating margin.

We expect our interest expense in 2020 to decrease as a result of the Stromag acquisition and to rationalize its global renewable energy business. The actions taken pursuant to the 2017 Altra Plan include reducing headcount, facility consolidations and the elimination of certain costs. Approximately $0.6 million of the expenseadditional principal payments resulting in the current quarter is related to activity in the Couplings, Clutches and Brakes segment under the 2017 Altra Plan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We finance our capital and working capital requirements through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under our 2015the Altra Revolving Credit Facility. At March 31, 2020, we had the ability under the Altra Revolving Credit Facility (defined below).(as defined herein) to borrow an additional $195.3 million subject to satisfying customary conditions.  We expect that our primary ongoing requirements for cash will be for working capital, debt service, capital expenditures, acquisitions, pensions, dividends and share repurchases.  

On October 1, 2018 (the “A&S Closing Date”), we consummated the Fortive Transaction.  The aggregate purchase price for the A&S Business was approximately $2,855.7 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments, and consisted of (i) $1,400.0 million of cash transferred to Fortive and (ii) shares of Altra common stock received by Fortive shareholders valued at approximately $1,455.7 million.  The value of the common stock was based on the closing stock price on the A&S Closing Date of $41.59.  We financed the cash portion of the Fortive Transaction with the Altra Credit Facilities (as defined herein).

We believe, based on current and projected levels of cash flows from operating activities, together with our ability to borrow under the Altra Revolving Credit Facility (as defined herein), we have sufficient liquidity to make required payments of interest on our debt, to make amortization payments under the Altra Credit Facilities (as defined herein), to fund our operating needs, to fund working capital and capital expenditure requirements and to comply with the financial ratios in our debt agreements. However, it is difficult to predict the severity and duration of the economic decline due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic but we have taken several proactive measures to protect our balance sheet and strengthen our liquidity position, as discussed above under “Business Outlook.”

In the event additional funds are needed for operations, we could borrow additional funds available under our existing 2015 Revolving Credit Facility, request an expansion by up to $150 million of the amount available to be borrowed under the 2015 Credit Agreement, attempt to secureobtain new debt attempt toand/or refinance our loans under the 2015 Credit Agreement,existing debt, or attempt to raise capital in the equity markets.  As of September 30, 2017, we have the ability under our 2015 Revolving Credit Facility to borrow an additional $138.9 million based on current availability calculations. There can be no assurance however that additional debt financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Similarly, there can be no assurance thator equity financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

Net cash provided fromby operating activities was approximately $43.3$34.9 million for the year to date period ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2020. This was generated by the net incomeloss of $39.0($116.6) million and the net impact of the add-back of certain items including non-cash depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, accretion of debt discount, amortization of deferred financing costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss on disposal of fixed assets, amortization of inventory fair value adjustment and


non-cash loss on foreign currency, and the non-cash impairment charge to goodwill and intangible assets which wastotaled approximately $36.2$182.0 million. This was partially offset by a use in cash from a net increasedecrease in current assets and liabilities of approximately $31.9$30.5 million.

Net cash used inprovided by investing activities for the year to date period ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2020 increased approximately $1.5$75.2 million compared to the year to date period ended September 30, 2016. The increase is attributedMarch 31, 2019, primarily due to higher purchasesthe cross currency interest rate swap settlement proceeds of manufacturing equipment and plant construction projects at certain facilities. This increase is partially offset by proceeds fromapproximately $56.2 million received during the sale of Changzhou equity and the completion of the working capital adjustment under the Stromag sale and purchase agreement.  quarter.

We intend to use our remaining cash and cash equivalents and cash flow from operations to provide for our working capital needs, to fund potential future acquisitions, to service our debt, including principal payments, for capital expenditures, for pension funding, share repurchases and to pay dividends to our stockholders.

During the reporting period, there have been no material changes to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding our market risk set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2019.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports filedthat we file or submit under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including theour principal executive officer and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures arewere effective at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 


PART II - OTHEROTHER INFORMATION

We are, from time to time, party to various legal proceedings arising out of our business. During the reporting period, there have been no material changes to the description of legal proceedings set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2019.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The reader should carefully consider the Risk Factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Those risk factors described elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162019 are not the only ones we face, but are considered to be the most material. These risk factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those stated in forward looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q and elsewhere. All risk factors stated in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162019 are incorporated herein by reference.

During the reporting period, except as noted below, there were no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2019.

We expect the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic to have an adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, it has resulted in significant financial market volatility, and its impact on the global economy appears to be significant. A continuation or worsening of the pandemic will have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition and on the market price of our common stock.

On March 12, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic. In an effort to contain and mitigate the spread of COVID-19, many countries, including the United States, many EU countries, Canada and China, have imposed unprecedented restrictions on travel, and there have been business closures and a substantial reduction in economic activity in countries that have had significant outbreaks of COVID-19. Significant uncertainty remains as to the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and on the global economy as a whole. It is currently not possible to predict how long the pandemic will last or the time that it will take for economic activity to return to prior levels. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant financial market volatility and uncertainty. A continuation or worsening of the levels of market disruption and volatility seen in the recent past could have an adverse effect on our ability to access capital, on our business, results of operations and financial condition, and on the market price of our common stock. We expect that our results of operations will reflect a negative impact from, among other things, the global pandemic. Depending upon the duration and severity of the pandemic, the continuing effect on our results over the long term is uncertain.
