ATRION CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

   

(1)Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Atrion Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as “Atrion,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of our consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. Operating results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that can have a significant impact on our revenue, operating income, and net income, as well as on the value of certain assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. We base our assumptions, judgments, and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require updates to our estimates or judgments or require us to revise the carrying value of our assets or liabilities as of August 8,November 7, 2023, the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, these estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. At least quarterly, we evaluate our assumptions, judgments, and estimates, and make changes as we deem necessary.

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 ("2022 Form 10-K").

(4)  Investments 

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, we held investments in commercial paper, bonds, money market accounts, mutual funds, and equity securities. The commercial paper and bonds are considered held-to-maturity and are recorded at amortized cost in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The money market accounts, equity securities, and mutual funds are recorded at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of these investments were estimated using recently executed transactions and market price quotations. We consider as current assets those investments which will mature in the next 12 months including interest receivable on the long-term bonds. The remaining investments are considered non-current assets which we intend to hold longer than 12 months.

We utilize a lifetime “expected credit loss” measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for held-to-maturity securities at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. During the secondthird quarter of 2023, our allowance for credit losses was immaterial.

(6) Revenues

We recognize revenue when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied. This occurs with the transfer of control of our products to customers when products are shipped. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring products or services. Sales and other taxes we may collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

More than 98 percent of our total revenue in the periods presented herein is pursuant to shipments initiated by a purchase order (our “contract”) and recognized at a single point in time when the performance obligation of the product being shipped is satisfied, rather than recognized over time, and is presented as a receivable on the balance sheet. Payment is typically due within 30 days.

 

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reflect estimated losses resulting from the failure of customers to make required payments. We calculate our credit loss allowance for our trade receivables following a lifetime “expected credit loss” measurement objective. An account is written off when we determine the receivable will not be collected. Historically, bad debt has been immaterial.

 

We have elected to recognize the cost of shipping as an expense in cost of sales when control over the product has transferred to the customer.

 

We do not make any material accruals for product returns and warranty obligations because our returns and warranty obligations have been very low due to our focus on quality control.

 

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount for which we have the right to invoice. We believe that the complexity added to our disclosures by the inclusion of a large amount of insignificant detail in attempting to disclose information about immaterial contracts would potentially obscure more useful and important information.

 

(7) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements applicable to us are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standards-setting bodies. We generally adopt these standards as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

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

 

Overview

We develop and manufacture products primarily for medical applications. We market components to other equipment manufacturers for incorporation in their products and sell finished devices to physicians, hospitals, clinics, and other treatment centers. Our medical products primarily serve the fluid delivery, cardiovascular, and ophthalmology markets. Our other medical and non-medical products include instrumentation and disposables used in valves and inflation devices used in marine and aviation safety products.

 

Our products are used in a wide variety of applications by numerous customers. We encounter competition in all of our markets and compete primarily on the basis of product quality, price, engineering, customer service, and delivery time.

 

Our business strategy is to provide hospitals, physicians, and other healthcare providers with the tools they need to improve the lives of the patients they serve. To do so, we provide a broad selection of products in the areas of our expertise. We have diverse product lines serving primarily the fluid delivery, cardiovascular, and ophthalmic markets, and this diversity has served us well as we encounter changing market conditions. Research and development, or R&D, efforts are focused on improving current products and developing highly-engineered products that meet customer needs and serve niche markets with meaningful sales potential. Proposed new products may be subject to regulatory clearance or approval prior to commercialization and the time period for introducing a new product to the marketplace can be unpredictable. We also focus on controlling costs by investing in modern manufacturing technologies and controlling purchasing processes. We have been successful in consistently generating cash from operations and have used that cash to reduce or eliminate indebtedness, to fund capital expenditures, to make investments, to repurchase stock, and to pay dividends.

 

Our strategic objective is to further enhance our position in our served markets by:

 

 

·

Focusing on customer needs;

 

·

Expanding existing product lines and developing new ones;

 

·

Investing in our future growth, while balancing the need to sensibly control cost; and

 

·

Preserving and fostering a collaborative, entrepreneurial management culture.

 

For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023, we reported revenues of $43.8$41.9 million, down 106 percent, operating income of $7.4$4.1 million, down 3358 percent, and net income of $6.6$2.9 million, down 3067 percent from the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022.

 

Results for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023

We had outstanding borrowings under the credit facility at JuneSeptember 30, 2023 of $3.8$4.5 million, and we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

 

At JuneSeptember 30, 2023, we had a total of $15.6$14.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and long-term investments. At December 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and long-term investments totaled $34.6 million.

Cash flows from operating activities of $3.7$9.1 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 were primarily comprised of net income plus the net effect of non-cash expenses and an increase in inventory and prepaid expenses. During the first sixnine months of 2023, we used $16.7$19.8 million for the addition of property and equipment, $7.6$11.4 million for dividends, and $5.6 million for the purchase of investments, and $1.7 million for the purchase of treasury stock.investments. During the same period, our maturities and sales of investments generated $19.5$20.8 million in cash, and our cash borrowings under our credit facility at JuneSeptember 30, 2023 were $3.8$4.5 million. For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, cash flows from operating activities of $18.3$28.9 million were primarily comprised of net income plus the net effect of non-cash expenses and an increase in accounts payable.inventory. During the first sixnine months of 2022, we used $22.3$25.5 million for the purchase of investments, $15.2$25.3 million for the addition of property and equipment, $7.0$10.8 million for dividends, and $9.3$14.4 million for the purchase of treasury stock. During the same period, maturities and sales of investments generated $20.2$42.7 million in cash.

 

At JuneSeptember 30, 2023, we had working capital of $99.6$100.5 million, including $309$658 thousand in cash and cash equivalents and $5.1$3.8 million in short-term investments, compared to working capital of $101.3 million at December 31, 2022. The $1.7 million$822 thousand decrease in working capital during the first sixnine months of 2023 was primarily related to a decrease in cash and short-term investments, partially offset by an increase in inventory and prepaid expenses.

 

We believe that our $15.6$14.0 million in cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and long-term investments, along with cash flows from operations and available borrowings of up to $71.2$70.5 million under our credit facility, will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements for at least the foreseeable future. We believe that our strong financial position would allow us to access equity or debt financing should that be necessary.

 

COVID-19 Impact

We believe the impact of COVID-19 on our business has largely diminished at this time; however, uncertainties continue, particularly around disruptions to the global economy, supply chains, and healthcare systems. Even with the public health actions that have been taken to date, the disease may pose future risks with the emergence of new variants. We will continue to monitor COVID-19 as well as resulting legislative and regulatory changes to manage our response and assess and seek to mitigate potential adverse impacts on our business. For additional discussion regarding COVID-19 and our related risks, see Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” included in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are forward-looking are based upon current expectations, and actual results or future events may differ materially. Therefore, the inclusion of such forward-looking information should not be regarded as a representation by us that our objectives or plans will be achieved. Such statements include, but are not limited to, our ability to fund our cash requirements for the foreseeable future with our current assets, long-term investments, cash flow, and borrowings under theour credit facility, and our access to equity and debt financing. Words such as “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “should,” “plans,” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained herein involve numerous risks and uncertainties, and there are a number of factors that could cause actual results or future events to differ materially, including, but not limited to, the following: the risk that COVID-19 leads to further material delays and cancellations of, or reduced demand for, procedures in which our products are utilized; curtailed or delayed capital spending by hospitals and other healthcare providers; disruption to our supply chain; closures of our facilities; delays in training; delays in gathering clinical evidence; diversion of management and other resources to respond to COVID-19; the impact of global and regional economic and credit market conditions on healthcare spending; the risk that COVID-19 further disrupts local economies and causes economies in our key markets to enter prolonged recessions; changing economic, market and business conditions; acts of war or terrorism; the effects of governmental regulation; the impact of competition and new technologies; slower-than-anticipated introduction of new products or implementation of marketing strategies; implementation of new manufacturing processes or implementation of new information systems; our ability to protect our intellectual property; changes in the prices of raw materials; changes in product mix; intellectual property and product liability claims and product recalls; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; and the loss of, or any material reduction in sales to, any significant customers. In addition, assumptions relating to budgeting, marketing, product development and other management decisions are subjective in many respects and thus susceptible to interpretations and periodic review which may cause us to alter our marketing, capital expenditures or other budgets, which in turn may affect our results of operations and financial condition. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made as of the date hereof, and we do not undertake any obligation, and disclaim any duty, to supplement, update or revise such statements, whether as a result of subsequent events, changed expectations or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
