GRAHAM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Amounts in thousands, except per share data)

 

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

Graham Corporation's (the "Company's") Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include its wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries located in Suzhou, China and Ahmedabad, India.India at June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, and its recently acquired wholly-owned subsidiary, Barber-Nichols, LLC ("BN"), located in Arvada, Colorado at June 30, 2021 and for the period June 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021 (See Note 2).  The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X, each as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 20202021 presented herein was derived from the Company’s audited Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2020.2021.  For additional information, please refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 20202021 ("fiscal 2020"2021").  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company's results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year, which ends March 31, 20212022 ("fiscal 2021"2022").

 

 

NOTE 2 – ACQUISITION:

On June 1, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Barber-Nichols, LLC ("BN"), a privately-owned designer and manufacturer of turbomachinery products located in Arvada, Colorado that serves the defense and aerospace industry as well as the energy and cryogenic markets.  The Company believes this acquisition furthers its growth strategy through market and product diversification, broadens its offerings and strengthens its presence in the defense industry, builds on its presence in the energy markets and adds capabilities in the space industry.

This transaction was accounted for as a business combination which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair value as of the acquisition date.  The purchase price of $72,014 was comprised of 610 shares of the Company's common stock, representing a value of $8,964 at a price of $14.69 per share, and cash consideration of $61,150, subject to certain potential adjustments, including a customary working capital adjustment.  The cash consideration was funded through cash on-hand and debt proceeds (See Note 15).  The purchase agreement also includes a contingent earn-out dependent upon certain financial measures of BN post-acquisition, in which the sellers are eligible to receive up to $14,000 in additional cash consideration.  As of June 30, 2021, a liability of $1,900 was recorded for the contingent earn-out.  If achieved, the earn-out will be payable in fiscal year 2025 and will be treated as additional purchase price.  The fair value of the contingent consideration liability was based on an option pricing model using a Monte Carlo simulation and is estimated by discounting contingent payments expected to be made, and may increase or decrease based on changes in earnings before income tax, depreciation and amortization estimates and discount rates.  This is considered a Level 3 liability in the fair value hierarchy.  In addition, BN and Ascent Properties Group, LLC, a related party, entered into a nine year operating lease agreement for an office and manufacturing building in Arvada, Colorado.  This lease has a monthly payment in the amount of $40 with a 3% yearly escalation.  Acquisition related costs of $169 were expensed in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The cost of the acquisition was preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition and the amount exceeding the fair value of $22,923 was recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes.  As the values of certain assets and liabilities are preliminary in nature, they are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained, including, but not limited to, the finalization of the valuation of intangible assets, the final reconciliation and confirmation of tangible assets and the settlement of the contingent payment.  The valuation of acquisition-related intangible assets will be finalized within twelve months of the close of the acquisition.  The fair value of acquisition-related intangible assets includes customer relationships, technology and technical know-how, backlog and trade name.  Backlog and trade name are included in the line item "Other intangible assets, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.  Customer relationships were valued using an income approach, specifically the Multi Period Excess Earnings method, which incorporates assumptions regarding retention rate, new customer growth and customer related costs.  Trade name and technology and technical know-how were both valued using a Relief from Royalty method, which develops a market based royalty rate used to reflect the after tax royalty savings attributable to owning the intangible asset.  The fair value of backlog was determined using a net realizable value

NOTE 3 – REVENUE RECOGNITION:

The Company recognizes revenue on contracts when or as it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer.  For contracts in which revenue is recognized upon shipment, control is generally transferred when products

10


are shipped, title is transferred, significant risks of ownership have transferred, the Company has rights to payment, and rewards of ownership pass to the customer.  For contracts in which revenue is recognized over time, control is generally transferred as the Company creates an asset that does not have an alternative use to the Company and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for the performance completed to date.

A performance obligation represents a promise in a contract to provide a distinct good or service to a customer.  The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.  Transaction price reflects the


amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferred products.  A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and revenue is recognized as the performance obligation is satisfied.  In certain cases, the Company may separate a contract into more than one performance obligation, while in other cases, several products may be part of a fully integrated solution and are bundled into a single performance obligation.  If a contract is separated into more than one performance obligation, the Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods underlying each performance obligation.  The Company has made an accounting policy election to exclude from the measurement of the contract price all taxes assessed by government authorities that are collected by the Company from its customers.  The Company does not adjust the contract price for the effects of a financing component if the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when a product is transferred to a customer and when the customer pays for the product will be one year or less. Shipping and handling fees billed to the customer are recorded in revenue and the related costs incurred for shipping and handling are included in cost of products sold.

Revenue on the majority of the Company’s contracts, as measured by number of contracts, is recognized upon shipment to the customer.  Revenue on larger contracts, which are fewer in number but represent the majority of revenue, is recognized over time.  However, in the three months ended June 30, 2020, revenue recognized over time was lower than revenue recognized upon shipment due to limited production on large contracts as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.  Revenue from contracts that is recognized upon shipment accounted for approximately 40%35% and 30%60% of revenue for the three-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively, and revenue from contracts that is recognized over time accounted for approximately 60%65% and 70%40% of revenue for the three-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 and 2019, respectively.  Revenue from contracts that is recognized upon shipment accounted for approximately 50% and 35% of revenue for the six-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and revenue from contracts that is recognized over time accounted for approximately 50% and 65% of revenue for the six-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. During the six months ended September 30, 2020, revenue recognized over time as a percentage of total revenue was lower as compared with the prior year period due to limited production on large contracts during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.2020.  The Company recognizes revenue over time when contract performance results in the creation of a product for which the Company does not have an alternative use and the contract includes an enforceable right to payment in an amount that corresponds directly with the value of the performance completed.  To measure progress towards completion on performance obligations for which revenue is recognized over time the Company utilizes an input method based upon a ratio of direct labor hours incurred to date to management’s estimate of the total labor hours to be incurred on each contract, an input method based upon a ratio of total contract costs incurred to date to management’s estimate of the total contract costs to be incurred or an output method based upon completion of operational milestones, depending upon the nature of the contract.  The Company has established the systems and procedures essential to developing the estimates required to account for performance obligations over time.  These procedures include monthly review by management of costs incurred, progress towards completion, identified risks and

11


opportunities, sourcing determinations, changes in estimates of costs yet to be incurred, availability of materials, and execution by subcontractors.  Sales and earnings are adjusted in current accounting periods based on revisions in the contract value due to pricing changes and estimated costs at completion.  Losses on contracts are recognized immediately when evident to management.

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections affect trade accounts receivable, unbilled revenue (contract assets) and customer deposits (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Unbilled revenue represents revenue on contracts that is recognized over time and exceeds the amount that has been billed to the customer.  Unbilled revenue is separately presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The Company may have an unconditional right to payment upon billing and prior to satisfying the performance obligations.  The Company will then record a contract liability and an offsetting asset of equal amount until the deposit is collected and the performance obligations are satisfied.  Customer deposits are separately presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Customer deposits are not considered a significant financing component as they are generally received less than one year before the product is completed or used to procure specific material on a contract, as well as related overhead costs incurred during design and construction.

of $13,184.$4,926.  In addition, contract liabilities decreased $2,145increased $2,975 driven by revenue recognized in the current period that was included in the contract liability balance at March 31, 20202021 offset by new customer deposits of $7,905.$4,042 and the acquisition of BN’s contract liabilities of $6,048.

Receivables billed but not paid under retainage provisions in the Company’s customer contracts were $2,232$3,308 and $2,016$3,747 at SeptemberJune 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

 

Incremental costs to obtain a contract consist of sales employee and agent commissions.  Commissions paid to employees and sales agents are capitalized when paid and amortized to selling, general and administrative expense when the related revenue is recognized.  Capitalized costs, net of amortization, to obtain a contract were $309$96 and $45$39 at SeptemberJune 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020,2021, respectively, and are included in the line item "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The related amortization expense was $89 and $40$10 in each of the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 and 2019, respectively, and $251 and $86 in the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.2020.

The Company’s remaining unsatisfied performance obligations represent a measure of the total dollar value of work to be performed on contracts awarded and in progress.  The Company also refers to this measure as backlog.  As of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, the Company had remaining unsatisfied performance obligations of $114,851.$235,938.  The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 60%45% to 65%50% of the remaining performance obligations within one year, 15%25% to 20%35% in one to two years and the remaining beyond two years.

NOTE 1314OTHER EXPENSE:LEASES:

On June 24, 2019,The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, office space, machinery and office equipment.  An arrangement is considered to contain a lease if it conveys the right to use and control an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.  If it is determined that an arrangement contains a lease, then a classification of a lease as operating or finance is determined by evaluating the five criteria outlined in the lease accounting guidance at inception.  Leases generally have remaining

16


terms of one year to five years, whereas leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The depreciable life of leased assets related to finance leases is limited by the expected term of the lease, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option that the Company completedbelieves is reasonably certain of exercise.  Certain leases include options to renew or terminate.  Renewal options are exercisable per the salediscretion of its subsidiary, Energy Steel & Supply Co.,the Company and vary based on the nature of each lease.  The term of the lease includes renewal periods only if the Company is reasonably certain that it will exercise the renewal option.  When determining if a renewal option is reasonably certain of being exercised, the Company considers several factors, including but not limited to, Hayward Tyler, a divisionthe cost of Avingtrans PLC, a global leader in performance-critical pumpsmoving to another location, the cost of disrupting operations, whether the purpose or location of the leased asset is unique and motorsthe contractual terms associated with extending the lease.  The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or any material restrictive covenants and the Company does not sublease to any third parties.  As of June 30, 2021, the Company did not have any material leases that have been signed but not commenced.

Right-of-use (“ROU”) lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date.  ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the energy sector.  Underlease term and lease liabilities represent the termsCompany’s obligation to make payments in exchange for that right of the stock purchase agreement, the Company received proceeds of $602, subject to certain adjustments, including a customary working capital adjustment.  The Company recognized a loss on the disposal of $87 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. In addition, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company incurred a bad debt charge of $98use.  Finance lease ROU assets and an inventory write down of $338 related to the bankruptcy of Westinghouse Electric Company.  All of these itemsoperating lease ROU assets are included in the line item “Other expense”items “Property, plant and equipment, net” and “Operating lease assets”, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated StatementBalance Sheets.  The current portion and non-current portion of Incomefinance and operating lease liabilities are all presented separately in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The discount rate implicit within the Company’s leases is generally not readily determinable, and therefore, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments based on rates available at commencement.

The weighted average remaining lease term and discount rate for finance and operating leases are as follows:

On June, 1, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to amend its letter of credit facility agreement with HSBC Bank USA, N.A. and decreased the Company’s line of credit from $15,000 to $7,500.  Under the amended agreement, the Company incurs an annual facility fee of $5 and outstanding letters of credit are subject to a fee of between 0.75% and 0.85%, depending on the term of the letter of credit.  Interest is payable on the principal amounts of unreimbursed letter of credit draws under the facility at a rate of 3% plus the bank’s prime rate.  The agreement is subject to an annual renewal by the bank on July 31 of each year.

Letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021 were $8,711 and $11,567, respectively.

 

NOTE 1416 – ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING CHANGES:

In the normal course of business, management evaluates all new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or any other authoritative accounting body to determine the potential impact they may have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.”  The amended guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes, eliminating certain exceptions to the general income tax principles, in an effort to reduce the cost and complexity of application.  The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  The guidance requires application on either a prospective, retrospective or modified retrospective basis, contingent on the income tax exception being applied.  The Company adopted the new guidance, on a prospective basis, on April 1, 2021.  The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Management does not expect any other recently issued accounting pronouncements, which have not already been adopted, to have a material impact onon the Company's consolidated financial statements.


NOTE 17 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

On August 10, 2021, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Daniel J. Thoren as its President and Chief Executive Officer, effective August 31, 2021.  Mr. Thoren will also join the Board of Directors upon assuming the new role.  He will succeed James R. Lines, who plans to retire from the Company and step down from the Board of Directors.  The Company will incur a one-time charge for the separation of James R. Lines that will be recorded in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022.

In the first quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 (which we refer to as "fiscal 2020"), weWe completed the saleacquisition of our commercial nuclear utility business, Energy Steel and Supply Co.Barber-Nichols, LLC ("Energy Steel"BN"). on June 1, 2021.

 

Our current fiscal year (which we refer to as "fiscal 2021"2022") ends March 31, 2022.

Acquisition

We completed the acquisition of Barber-Nichols, LLC ("BN") on June 1, 2021.  BN was founded as a turbomachinery engineering company in 1966.  BN has grown rapidly from programs that involve complex production and system integration.  BN is located in Arvada, Colorado, a suburb of Denver.  BN uses a combination of knowledge in rotating equipment, power generation cycles, and electrical management systems and has participated in the design and development of different power and propulsion systems used in underwater vehicles.

The acquisition of BN is expected to change the composition of the Company’s future end market mix.  We expect approximately 45%-50% of our business for the last ten months of fiscal 2022, after the acquisition, to provide equipment to the U.S. Navy.  We expect the energy market to be 35%-40% of sales and the aerospace and other markets to be 10%-15% of sales.

The transaction was accounted for as a business combination, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair value as of the acquisition date.  The purchase price of $72,014 was comprised of 610 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing a value of $8,964 at $14.69 per share, and cash consideration of $61,150, subject to certain potential adjustments, including a customary working capital adjustment.  The cash consideration was funded through cash on-hand and debt proceeds (See Note 15).  The purchase agreement with respect to the acquisition also includes a contingent earn-out dependent upon certain financial measures of BN post-acquisition, pursuant to which the sellers are eligible to receive up to $14,000 in additional cash consideration.  As of June 30, 2021, a liability of $1,900 was recorded for the contingent earn-out.  If achieved, the earn-out will be payable in fiscal year 2025 and will be treated as additional purchase price.  Acquisition related costs of $169 were expensed in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Current Market Conditions

Demand for our equipment and systems for the defense industry is expected to remain strong and continue to expand based on the planned procurement of submarines, aircraft carriers and undersea propulsion and power systems.  Submarines, both Virginia and Columbia classes, are considered critical to national defense.  We do not anticipate demand for our equipment and systems will abate and is actually reported to continue to increase in the coming years.  With the addition of revenue from the BN acquisition, consolidated revenue for the U.S. Navy is projected to be $60 million to $70 million in the current fiscal year, with growth expected in subsequent years.  In addition to U.S. Navy applications, we also provide specialty pumps, turbines, and compressors and controllers for various fluid and thermal management systems used in DoD radar, laser, electronics and power systems.  We have built a leading position, and in some instances, sole sourcing position, for certain systems and equipment supporting the confidence we have in near term outlook.

The energy and petrochemical markets continue to be impacted by demand disruption caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic.  Western energy markets are further impacted by alternative energy growth with reduced reliance of fossil-based fuels.  This, we believe, has caused our crude oil refining customers to reduce sustaining or MRO spending and dramatically scale back strategic growth investment.  Our western energy and crude oil refining customers are not expected to return to previous levels of investment in the near term, though we are seeing some improvements compared with the second half of last year.  Within our emerging or developing markets, we anticipate new capacity investment will occur in the latter half of the current fiscal year.  This market needs local refining capacity to meet local demand for petroleum products.

 

We continue to operate within disrupted energy and petrochemical markets (which we refer to as our “commercial markets”).  A slowdown in our commercial markets began during the latter part of fiscal 2020.  This slowdown was primarily caused


by an excess supply of crude oil, which had a negative impact on commodity pricing.  The economic slowdown and corresponding reductions in demand for transportation fuel and petrochemical products caused by the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic further adversely affected our commercial markets.  As a result of this combination of adverse supply-side and demand-side disruptions, our commercial customers have significantly reduced their operating budgets for products and services like those that we offer.  The timing and catalyst for a recovery in our commercial markets remains uncertain and we believe that in the near term the quantity of projects available for us to compete for will be fewer and that the pricing environment will continue to be challenging.

Over the long-term, however, we expect that population growth, an expanding global middle class and an increasing desire for more industrial products will drive increased demand for chemical and petrochemical products.  Moreover, once global economies return to stable growth, we expect investment in new global chemical and petrochemical capacity will resume and that such investments will drive growth in demand for our products and services.  

Energyenergy markets, in particular crude oil refining, simultaneous with the above-described reduction in demand, are undergoing a more fundamental evolution.  We believe that systemic changes in the energy marketsmarkers are occurring and that such changes are being driven, in part, by the increasing use by consumers of alternative fuels in lieu of fossil fuel.fuels.  As a result, we anticipate demand growth for fossil-based fuels will be less than the global GDP growth rate andrate.  Accordingly, we expect that crude oil refiners will focus new investments toward the installed base, and that inefficient refineries will close and new refining capacity will be co-located where fuels and petrochemicals are produced.  We also anticipate that future investment by refiners in renewable fuels (e.g., renewable diesel), in existing refineries (e.g., to expand feedstock processing flexibility and to improve conversion of oil to refined products), to gain greater throughput, or to build new capacity (e.g., integrated refineries with petrochemical products capabilities) will continue to drive demand for our products and services.

 

DemandWe expect Asian investment in chemical/petrochemical new capacity will return during the next 12-18 months while our Western integrated energy companies with petrochemical production assets will continue to limit capital investment.  The timing and catalyst for a recovery in our commercial markets (crude oil refining and chemical/petrochemical markets) remains uncertain.  Accordingly, we believe that in the near term the quantity of projects available for us to compete for will be fewer and that the pricing environment will remain challenging.

The alternative and clean energy opportunities for our productsheat transfer, power production and fluid transfer systems are expected to continue to grow.  We assist in designing, developing and producing equipment for hydrogen production, distribution and fueling systems, concentrated solar power and storage, and small modular nuclear systems.  While this business is small currently, we believe that we are positioning the Company to be a more significant contributor as these markets continue to develop.

We believe in the defense industry isnear and medium terms that chemical and petrochemical capital investment will continue to decouple from energy investment.  Over the long term, we expect that population growth, an expanding global middle class and an increasing desire for improved quality of life and access to consumer products will drive increased demand for industrial goods within the plastics and resins value chain along with fertilizers or related products.  Consequently, when global economies return to the naval nuclear propulsion market which is tied to aircraft carrierstable growth, we expect investment in new global chemical and submarine vessel construction schedules of the primary shipyards contracted by the U.S. Navy.  We expectpetrochemical capacity will resume and that such investments will drive growth in our naval nuclear propulsion business will result from our strategic actions to increase our market share, our successful performance, and expected demand increases.  The economic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has not adversely effected demand for our products or servicesand services.  

BN products and market access provide revenue and growth potential in the naval market.commercial space/aerospace markets.  As the commercial space market has grown and evolved rapidly, BN has provided rocket engine turbopump systems and components for many of the launch providers.  We expect that extended space travel will become more prevalent, and we anticipate that our thermal/fluid management and environmental control and life support system turbomachinery will play important roles.  BN is also participating in future aerospace power and propulsion system development through supply of fluid and thermal management systems components.  Small power dense systems are imperative for these applications and we believe our technology and expertise will allow us to participate in this market as well.



The chart below shows the impact of our successful diversification strategy into multiple U.S. Navystrategy.  The defense platforms.  Our U.S. Navy defense business, which began with our entry into the nuclear carrier program and expanded into both the Virginia and Columbia class nuclear submarine programs, made up 50%market comprised 80% of our total backlog at SeptemberJune 30, 2020.  Each vessel platform has made up at least 10% of our total backlog for the past three years.2021.  We believe this diversification is especially beneficial when our commercial markets are weak, as is presently the case.

Orders and Backlog

 

Management uses orders and backlog as measures of our current and future business and financial performance.  Orders for the three-month period ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 were $34,974, net of a change order reduction of $1,264,$20,867 compared with $32,552$11,468 for the same period last year.year, an increase of $9,399.  Orders represent written communications received from customers requesting us to supply products and/or services.  Domestic orders were 46%74% of total orders, or $16,117,$15,402, and international orders were 54%26% of total orders, or $18,857,$5,465, in the secondfirst quarter of fiscal 2022 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2020 when domestic orders were 33%28%, or $10,759,$3,232, of total orders, and international orders were 67%72%, or $21,793,$8,236, of total orders.  

During the first six months of fiscal 2021, orders were $46,442, compared with $47,641Orders from BN for the same period of fiscal 2020.  Domestic ordersone month that we owned BN during the quarter were 42% of total orders, or $19,349, and international orders were 58% of total orders, or $27,093, in the first six months of fiscal$206.  

Backlog was $235,938 at June 30, 2021, compared with the same period of fiscal 2020 when domestic orders were 46%, or $21,916, of total orders, and international orders were 54%, or $25,725, of total orders.  

Backlog was $114,851 at September 30, 2020, compared with $107,220 on June 30, 2020, and $112,389$137,567 at March 31, 2020.2021, a 72% increase or $98,371.  Of the increase, $94,414 was due to our acquisition of BN.  Backlog is defined as the total dollar value of orders received for which revenue has not yet been recognized.  Approximately 60%45% to 65%50% of orders currently in our backlog are expected to be converted to sales within one year.  The majority of the backlogorders that isare expected to convert beyond twelve months isare for the defense industry, specifically the U.S. Navy.  At SeptemberJune 30, 2020, 37%2021, 80% of our backlog was attributable to U.S. Navy projects, 12% for refinery project work, 3% for chemical and petrochemical projects, 2% for space projects and 3% for other industrial applications.  At March 31, 2021, 76% for U.S. Navy projects, 16% of our backlog was attributable to equipment for refinery project work, 9%6% for chemical and petrochemical projects 50%and 2% for defense (U.S. Navy) projects and 4% for other commercial and industrial applications.  At SeptemberJune 30, 2019, 32%2021, we had no projects on hold.

Outlook

Our defense business continues to be strong.  With the acquisition of BN, 80% of our $235,938 backlog was attributableis in defense.  While much of the defense backlog includes projects with order to equipment for refinery project work, 16% for chemical and petrochemical projects, 48% for U.S. Navy projects and 4% for power and other industrial applications.  We had two projects totaling $3,165 cancelledshipment of up to five years, we are expecting 45% to 50% of our sales in fiscal 2020 and a third project of $654 cancelled in2022 to be from the first six months of fiscal 2021.  At September 30, 2020, we had two projects totaling $562 on hold.   

Outlookdefense market.  

 

Capital spending in the energycommercial markets we serve began to decrease during the second half of fiscal 2020 and the pace of activity further materially contracted as COVID-19 became a global pandemic in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020.  TheOur weak energycommercial markets have continued into fiscal 2021 and we are not seeing a recovery as we enter fiscal 2022.  This is particularly evident

in our North American markets.America.  As a result, our overall bidding activity has slowed.slowed, and this was clearly evident in fiscal 2021 and impacted our first quarter of fiscal 2022 results.  There has also been a shift toward more opportunities in emerging markets.  At September 30, 2020, 50% of our backlog was for the defense industry, specifically the U.S. Navy.  Our pipeline for the U.S. Navy continues to be robust, but quarterly fluctuations in order levels will occur due to the size and timing of release of the U.S. Navy projects.  Defense programs in backlog are planned to deliver $20 to $30 million per year of revenue in fiscal 2021 and beyond.

 

Near term opportunities in the global energy and petrochemical markets have slowed significantly due to the combined impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the geopolitical imbalance of supply.supply, as previously discussed.  Although we do not know when the COVID-19 pandemic will end or when the supply imbalance will subside, we continueexpect our energy markets to improve.  In addition, we believe that the energy and petrochemical markets provide long-term growth opportunities for our products and services.  Coupled with our diversification strategy into the defense industry, we remain confident in our ability to achieve the long-term goal of significantly growing our business.  We have invested in capacity to serve our commercial customers as well as to expand the work we do for the U.S. Navy.  

We intend to continue to look for organic growth opportunities as well as acquisitions or other business combinationscombinations that we believe will allow us to expand our presence in both our existing and ancillary markets.

 

Our expectations for sales and profitability in fiscal 2021 assume that we are able to operate our production facilityfacilities in Batavia, New York and Arvada, Colorado at or near normal"normal" (pre-COVID-19) capacity for the last two quarters ofthroughout fiscal 2021 without any additional COVID-19 related reductions in production capacity.  In our first quarter of fiscal 2021, our production capability was significantly reduced due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Our production was at approximately 50% of normal production across the first quarter of fiscal 2021.  Our production capacity returned to a normal level in the second quarter of fiscal 2021.  Our outlook is based upon the assumption that we are able to operate our production facility, have access to the global supply chain, including our subcontractors, with minimal or no disruptions, whether as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic or any other circumstances.

Contingencies and Commitments

We have been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos allegedly contained in or accompanying our products.  We are a co-defendant with numerous other defendants in these lawsuits and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against these claims.  The claims in our current lawsuits are similar to those made in previous asbestos lawsuits that named us as a defendant.  Such previous lawsuits either were dismissed when it was shown that we had not supplied products to the plaintiffs’ places of work, or were settled by us for immaterial amounts.

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, we are subject to the claims noted above, as well as other legal proceedings and potential claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business.  Although the outcome of the lawsuits, legal proceedings or potential claims to which we are or may become a party cannot be determined and an estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss cannot be made for the majority of the claims, we do not believe that the outcomes, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Judgments

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the selection of accounting policies and the application of significant accounting estimates, some of which require management to make significant assumptions.  We believe that the most critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements relate to labor hour and total cost estimates and establishment of operational milestones which are used to recognize revenue under the overtime recognition model, accounting for contingencies, under which we accrue a loss when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated, and accounting for pensions and other postretirement benefits.  For further information, refer to Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020.  2021.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off balance sheet arrangements as of SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 or March 31, 2020,2021, other than letters of credit.

 


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from market changes) to which we are exposed are foreign currency exchange rates, price risk, project cancellation risk and trade policy.

The assumptions applied in preparing the following qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding foreign currency exchange rate, price risk and project cancellation risk are based upon volatility ranges experienced by us in relevant historical periods, our current knowledge of the marketplace, and our judgment of the probability of future volatility based upon the historical trends and economic conditions of the markets in which we operate.

Foreign Currency

International consolidated sales for the first three and six months ended September 30, 2020of fiscal 2022 were 38% and 40%, respectively,31% of total sales compared with 27% and 29%, respectively,44% for the same periodsperiod of fiscal 2020.2021.  Operating in markets throughout the world exposes us to movements in currency exchange rates.  Currency movements can affect sales in several ways, the foremost being our


ability to compete for orders against foreign competitors that base their prices on relatively weaker currencies.  Business lost due to competition for orders against competitors using a relatively weaker currency cannot be quantified.  In addition, cash can be adversely impacted by the conversion of sales made by us in a foreign currency to U.S. dollars.  In each of the first three and six months of fiscal 20212022 and fiscal 2020,2021, all sales by us and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, for which we were paid, were denominated in the local currency of the respective subsidiary (U.S. dollars, Chinese RMB or Chinese RMB)India INR).  

We have limited exposure to foreign currency purchases.  In eachthe first three months of the threefiscal 2022 and six months ended September 30, 2020,2021, our purchases in foreign currencies represented approximately 1% and 2% of cost of products sold.  In the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, our purchases in foreign currencies represented 0% and 1% of cost of products sold, respectively.  At certain times, we may enter into forward foreign currency exchange agreements to hedge our exposure against potential unfavorable changes in foreign currency values on significant sales and purchase contracts negotiated in foreign currencies.  Forward foreign currency exchange contracts were not used in the periods being reported on in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and as of SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 and March 31, 2020,2021, we held no forward foreign currency contracts.

Price Risk

Operating in a global marketplace requires us to compete with other global manufacturers which, in some instances, benefit from lower production costs and more favorable economic conditions.  Although we believe that our customers differentiate our products on the basis of our manufacturing quality, responsive and flexible service, and engineering experience and excellence, among other things, such lower production costs and more favorable economic conditions mean that certain of our competitors are able to offer products similar to ours at lower prices.  The cost of metals and other materials used in our products can experience significant volatility, and as such, can impact our ability to reflect this volatility in our pricing.

Project Cancellation and Project Continuation Risk

 

Open orders are reviewed continuously through communications with customers.  If it becomes evident to us that a project is delayed well beyond its original shipment date, management will move the project into "placed on hold" (i.e. suspended) category.  Furthermore, if a project is cancelled by our customer, it is removed from our backlog.  We attempt to mitigate the risk of cancellation by structuring contracts with our customers to maximize the likelihood that progress payments made to us for individual projects cover the costs we have incurred.  As a result, we do not believe we have a significant cash exposure to projects which may be cancelled.  At SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, we had two noprojects totaling $562 on hold by our customers.  

hold.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

 

Conclusion regarding the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures

 

Our President and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Vice President-FinancePresident - Finance & Administration and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) each have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  Based on such evaluation, and as of such date, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President-FinancePresident - Finance & Administration and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in all material respects.  



Changes in internal control over financial reporting

ThereOther than the events discussed under the section entitled Barber-Nichols Acquisition below, there has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despitereporting.

Barber-Nichols Acquisition

 On June 1, 2021, we acquired Barber-Nichols, LLC, a privately-owned designer and manufacturer of turbomachinery products for the factaerospace, cryogenic, defense and energy markets, located in Arvada, Colorado. For additional information regarding the acquisition, refer to Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in Item 2 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  Based on recent completion of this acquisition and, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s guidance that mostan assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of an assessment for a period not to exceed one year form the date of acquisition, the scope of our non-productive employees were working remotelyassessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report does not include Barber-Nichols, LLC.

 We are in the process of implementing our internal control structure over the Barber-Nichols, LLC acquisition and we expect that this effort will be completed during the majority of the first quarter due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.fiscal year ending March 31, 2023.
