NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)
(UNAUDITED)
| A. | Basis of Presentation |
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Twin Disc, Incorporated (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of the Company, include adjustments, consisting primarily of normal recurring items, necessary for a fair statement of results for each period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for June 30, 2022. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The Company's reporting period ends on the last Friday of the quarterly calendar period. The Company's fiscal year ends on June 30, regardless of the day of the week on which June 30 falls.
New Accounting Releases
In June 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance (ASU 2016-13) and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance under ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-10 (collectively ASC 326). ASC 326 requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. This replaces the existing incurred loss model with an expected loss model and requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. The amendments in this guidance are effective for filers, excluding smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 (the Company’s fiscal 2024), with early adoption permitted for certain amendments. ASC 326 must be adopted by applying a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on the Company’s disclosures.
In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued guidance (ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01, respectively), intended to provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The amendments in this guidance are effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Special Note Regarding Smaller Reporting Company Status
Under SEC Release 33-10513; 34-83550, Amendments to Smaller Reporting Company Definition, the Company qualifies as a smaller reporting company and accordingly, it has scaled some of its disclosures of financial and non-financial information in this quarterly report. The Company will continue to determine whether to provide additional scaled disclosures of financial or non-financial information in future quarterly reports, annual reports and/or proxy statements if it remains a smaller reporting company under SEC rules.

Inventories |
The major classes of inventories were as follows:

| C. |
Warranty |
The Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of its suppliers. However, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, the number of units affected by the failure and the expense involved in satisfactorily addressing the situation. The warranty reserve is established based on our best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle future and existing claims on products sold as of the balance sheet date. When evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for warranty costs, management takes into consideration the term of the warranty coverage, historical claim rates and costs of repair, knowledge of the type and volume of new products and economic trends. While we believe the warranty reserve is adequate and that the judgment applied is appropriate, such amounts estimated to be due and payable in the future could differ materially from what actually transpires. The following is a listing of the activity in the warranty reserve for the quarters ended December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Contingencies |
The Company is involved in litigation of which the ultimate outcome and liability to the Company, if any, is not presently determinable. Management believes that final disposition of such litigation will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
| E. |
Business Segments |
The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in the manufacture and sale of marine and heavy-duty off-highway power transmission equipment. Principal products include marine transmissions, azimuth drives, surface drives, propellers and boat management systems, as well as power-shift transmissions, hydraulic torque converters, power take-offs, industrial clutches and controls systems. The Company sells to both domestic and foreign customers in a variety of market areas, principally pleasure craft, commercial and military marine markets, as well as in the energy and natural resources, government and industrial markets. The Company's worldwide sales to both domestic and foreign customers are transacted through a direct sales force and a distributor network.
The Company has reportable segments: manufacturing and distribution. These segment structures reflect the way management makes operating decisions and manages the growth and profitability of the business It also corresponds with management’s approach of allocating resources and assessing the performance of its segments. The accounting practices of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Transfers between segments are at established inter-company selling prices. Management evaluates the performance of its segments based on their net income.
Information about the Company’s segments is summarized as follows:

| H. |
Income Taxes |
Accounting policies for interim reporting require the Company to adjust its effective tax rate each quarter to be consistent with the estimated Annual Effective Tax Rate (AETR). Under this effective tax rate methodology, the Company applies an estimated annual income tax rate to its year-to-date ordinary earnings to derive its income tax provision each quarter. To calculate its AETR, an entity must estimate its ordinary income or loss and the related tax expense or benefit for its full fiscal year. In situations in which an entity is in a loss position and recognizes a full valuation allowance, the guidance in ASC 740-270-25-9 applies. Due to historical losses and uncertain future domestic earnings, the Company recognizes a full US valuation allowance. Permanent differences continue to fluctuate and are significant compared to projected ordinary income. Therefore per ASC guidance, the fully valued domestic entity was removed from the annualized effective rate calculation. Because of the full US valuation allowance, the US entity may only recognize tax expense / benefit recorded for ASC-740-10 adjustments.
For the six months ended December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 the Company’s effective income tax rate was
In the post pandemic era, the Company continues to monitor for any revisions enacted under the Tax Cuts and Job Act (TCJA), Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act and the American Rescue Plan (ARPA). On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). This landmark United States law aims to reduce inflation by reducing the deficit, lowering prescription drug prices and investing into domestic energy production while promoting clean energy. At this time it is not certain what, if any, impact this will have on the Company.
The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the tax provision in the period of change. In determining whether a valuation allowance is required, the Company takes into account such factors as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carry-back and carry-forward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset. In addition, all other available positive and negative evidence is taken into consideration, including all new impacts of tax reform. The Company has evaluated the realizability of the net deferred tax assets related to its foreign operations and based on this evaluation management has concluded that no valuation allowances are required. However, due to historical domestic losses and uncertain future domestic earnings, the Company continues to recognize a full domestic valuation allowance.
The Company has approximately $
Annually, the Company files income tax returns in various taxing jurisdictions inside and outside the United States. In general, the tax years that remain subject to examination in foreign jurisdictions are through 2021. The tax year open to exam in the Netherlands is The tax years open to examination in the U.S. are for years subsequent to fiscal It is reasonably possible that other audit cycles will be completed during fiscal 2023.

Credit Agreement Debt: The Company’s credit agreement debt represents borrowings made under the credit agreement, as amended, which it entered into with BMO Harris Bank N.A, (“BMO”) on June 29, 2018 (“Credit Agreement”). Under the agreement, the Company, among other obligations, is subject to a minimum EBITDA financial covenant.
On June 30, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 9 to Credit Agreement (the “Ninth Amendment”) that amends and extends the Credit Agreement dated as of June 29, 2018, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”) between the Company and BMO.
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, as in effect prior to the Ninth Amendment, the Bank made a Term Loan to the Company in the principal amount of $
The Ninth Amendment extended the Credit Agreement through June 30, 2025. Prior to the Ninth Amendment, the Credit Agreement was scheduled to terminate as of June 30, 2023.
The Ninth Amendment also formally terminated the January 27, 2021 Forbearance Agreement, which had been entered into because the Company had not been in compliance with a requirement to maintain a minimum EBITDA of $
The Ninth Amendment also replaced LIBOR-based interest rates with different benchmark rates based on the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) or the euro interbank offered rate (the “EURIBO Rate”). Loans under the Credit Agreement are designated either as “SOFR Loans,” which accrue interest at an Adjusted Term SOFR plus an Applicable Margin, or “Eurodollar Loans,” which accrue interest at the EURIBO Rate plus an Applicable Margin. Amounts drawn on a Letter of Credit that are not timely reimbursed to the Bank bear interest at a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. The Company also pays a commitment fee on the average daily Unused Revolving Credit Commitment equal to an Applicable Margin.
The Ninth Amendment also reduced the Applicable Margins from the rates that had been in effect during the period of the Forbearance Agreement. During the period covered by the Forbearance Agreement, the Applicable Margins for Revolving Loans, Term Loans, and the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment were

Restructuring expenses
The Company has implemented various restructuring programs in response to unfavorable macroeconomic trends in certain of the Company’s markets since the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. These programs primarily involved the reduction of workforce in several of the Company’s manufacturing locations, under a combination of voluntary and involuntary programs. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company undertook a series of steps to accelerate its focus on its core competencies, improve its fixed cost structure, and monetize some of its under-utilized assets.
With regard to its Belgian operations, on June 30, 2021, the Company announced a new phase in its restructuring plans. Under this plan, the Belgian operation’s workforce was reduced by 18 employees. This reduction in workforce resulted in an accrual of $
In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company and the union representing certain of the employees affected by the restructuring of the Belgian operation came to an agreement on a final settlement amount of $

Assets held for sale
To improve its fixed cost structure and monetize some of its under-utilized assets, the Company commenced the active marketing of several of its real estate properties, namely, its corporate headquarters in Racine, its propeller machining plant and office in Switzerland, and a spare warehouse in Italy during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Such actions required the Company to reclassify these assets from Property, Plant and Equipment to Assets Held for Sale, at fair value less costs to sell, or net book value, whichever is lower. Fair value was determined using real estate broker estimates and would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. This assessment of fair value resulted in the Company recognizing a write-down of the carrying value of its corporate headquarters by $

In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company commenced the active marketing of an additional real estate property located in Nivelles, Belgium. This action required the Company to reclassify these assets from Property, Plant, and Equipment to Assets Held for Sale, at fair value less costs to sell or net book value, whichever is lower. Fair value was determined using real estate broker estimates and would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The real estate property's fair value less costs to sell exceeded its net book value. The Company reclassified the property's net book value of $

Earnings Per Share |
The Company calculates basic earnings per share based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, while the calculation of diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted earnings per share excludes all potential common shares if their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect. Certain restricted stock award recipients have a non-forfeitable right to receive dividends declared by the Company and are therefore included in computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.

Lease Liabilities |
The Company leases certain office and warehouse space, as well as production and office equipment.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. The lease term begins upon lease commencement, which is when the Company takes possession of the asset and may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised. As its lease agreements typically do not provide an implicit rate, the Company primarily uses an incremental borrowing rate based upon the information available at lease commencement. In determining the incremental borrowing rate, the Company considers its current borrowing rate, the term of the lease, and the economic environments where the lease activity is concentrated.

Derivative Financial Instruments |
From time to time, the Company enters into derivative instruments to manage risks relating to interest rate and foreign exchange rate volatility. The Company does not purchase, hold or sell derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company’s practice is to terminate derivative transactions if the underlying asset or liability matures or is sold or terminated, or if it determines the underlying forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring.
The Company reports all derivative instruments on its consolidated balance sheets at fair value and establishes criteria for designation and effectiveness of transactions entered into for hedging purposes.
Interest Rate Swap Contracts
The Company has outstanding interest rate swap contract as of December 30, 2022, with a notional amount of $
The primary purpose of the Company’s cash flow hedging activities is to manage the potential changes in value associated with interest payments on the Company’s SOFR-based indebtedness. The Company records gains and losses on interest rate swap contracts qualifying as cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive loss to the extent that these hedges are effective and until the Company recognizes the underlying transactions in net earnings, at which time these gains and losses are recognized in interest expense on its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Cash flows from derivative financial instruments are classified as cash flows from financing activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. These contracts generally have original maturities of greater than twelve months.
Net unrealized after-tax losses related to cash flow hedging activities that were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss were ($

Derivatives Designated as Net Investment Hedges
The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to its investment in net assets in foreign countries. As discussed in Note J, Long-term Debt, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company designated its euro denominated Revolving Loan, with a notional amount of as a net investment hedge to mitigate the risk of variability in its euro denominated net investments in wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries. All changes in the fair value of the euro revolver were then recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss along with the foreign currency translation adjustments on those foreign investments.

Management Discussion and Analysis |
In the financial review that follows, we discuss our results of operations, financial condition and certain other information. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 30, 2022, and related notes, as reported in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Some of the statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include the Company’s description of plans and objectives for future operations and assumptions behind those plans. The words “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates,” and “expects,” or similar anticipatory expressions, usually identify forward-looking statements. In addition, goals established by the Company should not be viewed as guarantees or promises of future performance. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in achieving its goals.
In addition to the assumptions and information referred to specifically in the forward-looking statements, other factors, including but not limited to those factors discussed under Item 1A, Risk Factors, of the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for June 30, 2022, as supplemented in this Quarterly Report, could cause actual results to be materially different from what is expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement.

Comparison of the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2023 with the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2022
Net sales for the second quarter increased 5.8%, or $3.5 million, to $63.4 million from $59.9 million in the same quarter a year ago. The Company continues to experience strong demand across most of its markets following the severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in fiscal 2021, including demand for new transmissions in the North American oil and gas market, along with the ongoing demand for aftermarket support. The Company’s ability to ship product continues to be hampered by a variety of supply chain challenges. These include supplier capacity constraints, extended supplier lead times and a global shortage of electronic components. Global sales of industrial products declined slightly (2.5%), primarily due to an unfavorable currency impact, while shipments of marine and propulsion products improved by 2.7% and off-highway transmission shipments grew by 10.2% compared with the prior year second quarter. The North American region enjoyed the most significant sales improvement ($6.2 million or 32.0%) due to generally improving market conditions and increased new unit and aftermarket demand in the North American energy market. The European region saw a more modest increase ($0.7 million or 3.7%), with a more challenging economy and the negative impact of currency exchange. Sales into the Asia Pacific region decreased 8.3%, or $1.1 million, primarily due to a temporary pause in shipments of certain oil and gas related products into China. Currency translation had an unfavorable impact on second quarter fiscal 2023 sales compared to the second quarter of the prior year totaling $5.0 million primarily due to the weakening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.
Sales at our manufacturing segment increased 15.0%, or $7.4 million, versus the same quarter last year. The U.S. manufacturing operations experienced a 17.5%, or $5.2 million, increase in sales versus the second fiscal quarter of 2022, with recovering markets and growing North American demand in the energy market, partially offset by the continued supply chain challenges noted above. The Company’s operation in the Netherlands was up $1.6 million (13.3%) compared to the second fiscal quarter of 2022, primarily due to improving market demand and strong operational execution, partially offset by an unfavorable currency impact and supply chain limitations. Similarly, the Company’s Belgian operation saw an increase compared to the prior year second quarter (6.7% or $0.3 million), with improving demand partially offset by an unfavorable translation effect. The Company’s Italian manufacturing operations were up $0.3 million (4.4%) compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2022, with improving execution and easing supply chain interruptions. The Company’s Swiss manufacturing operation, which supplies customized propellers for the global mega yacht and patrol boat markets, was up $0.1 million (10.5%) compared to the prior year second quarter.
Our distribution segment experienced a decrease in sales of $2.7 million (9.6%) in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2022. The Company’s Asian distribution operations in Singapore, China and Japan were down 30.8%, or $3.2 million, from the prior year primarily due to a temporary delay in shipments of certain oil and gas related products into China. The Company’s North America distribution operation saw a slight increase ($0.2 million or 2.5%) on stronger supply of product from the manufacturing operations, as all markets have seen improving demand. The Company’s European distribution operation saw a decrease ($0.7 million or 12.0%) resulting from lower factory shipments and the unfavorable impact of currency translation. The Company’s distribution operation in Australia, which provides boat accessories, propulsion and marine transmission systems for the pleasure craft market, saw continued growth (14.0% increase, or $0.9 million, from the prior year second fiscal quarter), on the continued strengthening of pleasure craft marine market demand in the region.
Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 improved to 26.9%, compared to 22.5% for the same period last year. The improvement over the prior year is primarily the result of additional volume ($0.8 million), a more favorable mix of product shipments ($0.7 million) and progress on margin improvement actions related to pricing and cost efficiencies ($2.0 million).
For the fiscal 2023 second quarter, marketing, engineering and administrative (“ME&A”) expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 25.2%, compared to 25.5% for the fiscal 2022 second quarter. ME&A expenses increased $0.7 million (4.7%) versus the same period last fiscal year. The increase in ME&A spending for the quarter was comprised of the incremental impact of prior year COVID subsidies ($0.8 million), increased professional fees ($0.5 million) and other inflationary impacts ($0.2 million). These increases were partially offset by a foreign currency translation impact of $0.8 million.
The Company incurred restructuring charges during the second quarter of fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022, primarily associated with ongoing cost reduction actions at its European operations and actions to adjust the cost structure at the Company’s domestic operation. The Company continues to focus on actively managing its cost structure and reducing fixed costs.
The Company recorded other operating income of $4.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 associated with the gain on the sale of the Company’s facility in Belgium. The building was sold for approximately $7.2 million. The Company entered into a lease agreement to leaseback the property for a two-year term.
Interest expense was relatively flat at $0.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, with a slightly higher rate partially offset by a lower average outstanding revolver balance.
Other expense of $0.8 million for the second fiscal quarter was primarily attributable to translation losses related to the Company’s euro denominated liabilities.
The fiscal 2023 second quarter effective tax rate was 68.3% compared to -19.9% in the prior fiscal year second quarter. The full domestic valuation allowance, along with the mix of foreign earnings by jurisdiction, resulted in the increase to the effective tax rate.
Comparison of the First Half of Fiscal 2023 with the First Half of Fiscal 2022
Net sales for the first half increased 10.8%, or $11.6 million, to $119.3 million from $107.7 million in the same period a year ago. The Company experienced strong and improving demand through the first half as all markets have demonstrated recovery following the severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in fiscal 2021, including demand for new transmissions in the North American oil and gas market demand, along with the ongoing demand for aftermarket support. The Company’s ability to ship product continues to be hampered by a variety of supply chain challenges. These include supplier capacity constraints, extended supplier lead times and a global shortage of electronic components. Global sales of industrial products improved (5.1%) primarily due to a strong first quarter in North America, while shipments of marine and propulsion products improved by 5.9% and off-highway transmission shipments grew by 19.8% compared with the prior year first half. The North American region enjoyed the most significant sales improvement ($11.9 million or 32.5%) due to generally improving market conditions and increased new unit and aftermarket demand in the North American energy market. The European region saw a more modest increase ($0.9 million or 2.7%), with a more challenging economy and the negative impact of currency exchange. Sales into the Asia Pacific region decreased 0.8%, or $0.2 million, primarily due to a temporary pause in shipments of certain oil and gas related products into China offset by continued strong demand in Australia. Currency translation had an unfavorable impact on first half fiscal 2023 sales compared to the first half of the prior year totaling $9.9 million primarily due to the weakening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.
Sales at our manufacturing segment increased 16.3%, or $14.8 million, versus the same period last year. The U.S. manufacturing operations experienced a 28.0%, or $13.1 million, increase in sales versus the first half of fiscal 2022, with recovering markets and growing North American demand in the energy market, partially offset by the continued supply chain challenges noted above. The Company’s operation in the Netherlands was up $0.8 million (3.9%) compared to the first half of fiscal 2022, primarily due to improving market demand and strong operational execution, partially offset by an unfavorable currency impact and supply chain limitations. The Company’s Belgian operation saw a slight decrease compared to the prior year first half (3.6% or $0.4 million), with improving demand offset by an unfavorable currency translation effect. The Company’s Italian manufacturing operations were up $1.1 million (9.2%) compared to the first half of fiscal 2022, with improving execution and easing supply chain interruptions. The Company’s Swiss manufacturing operation, which supplies customized propellers for the global mega yacht and patrol boat markets, was up $0.2 million (7.3%) compared to the prior year first half.
Our distribution segment experienced an increase in sales of $1.1 million (2.2%) in the first half of fiscal 2023 compared to the first half of fiscal 2022. The Company’s Asian distribution operations in Singapore, China and Japan were down 14.8% from the prior year primarily due to a temporary delay in shipments of certain oil and gas related products into China during the second fiscal quarter. The Company’s North America distribution operation saw a strong increase ($2.3 million or 24.7%) on stronger supply of product from the manufacturing operations, as all markets have seen improving demand. The Company’s European distribution operation saw a decrease (4.9%) resulting from lower factory shipments and the unfavorable impact of currency translation. The Company’s distribution operation in Australia, which provides boat accessories, propulsion and marine transmission systems for the pleasure craft market, saw continued growth (15.7% increase from the prior year first half), on the continued strengthening of pleasure craft marine market demand in the region.
The gross profit percentage for the first half of fiscal 2023 improved to 25.4%, compared to 25.0% for the same period last year. The prior year first half result reflects the benefit of an Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”, part of various COVID-19 relief programs provided by the U.S. government) of $1.3 million recorded at the Company’s domestic operation, along with the benefit of a NOW subsidy (COVID-19 relief program in the Netherlands) of $0.7 million and the favorable impact of a correction to the Company’s warranty reserve ($0.5 million). Adjusting for these non-recurring items, the gross profit percent for the first half would have been 22.7%. The improvement over the prior year after adjusting for these items is primarily the result of additional volume ($2.9 million), a more favorable mix of product shipments ($2.0 million) and progress on margin improvement actions related to pricing and cost efficiencies ($1.0 million).
For the fiscal 2023 first half, marketing, engineering and administrative (“ME&A”) expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 26.0%, compared to 26.3% for the fiscal 2022 first half. ME&A expenses increased $2.7 million (9.5%) versus the same period last fiscal year. The increase in ME&A spending for the period was comprised of the incremental impact of prior year COVID subsidies ($1.5 million), increased professional fees ($0.8 million), salaries and benefits ($0.9 million) marketing activities ($0.3 million), spending on travel and entertainment ($0.4 million) and other inflationary impacts ($0.5 million). These increases were partially offset by a foreign currency translation impact of $1.7 million.
The Company incurred restructuring charges during the first half of fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022, primarily associated with ongoing cost reduction actions at its European operations and actions to adjust the cost structure at the Company’s domestic operation. The Company continues to focus on actively managing its cost structure and reducing fixed costs.
The Company recorded other operating income of $4.2 million in fiscal 2023 associated with the gain on the sale of the Company’s facility in Belgium. The building was sold for approximately $7.2 million.
Interest expense was relatively flat at $1.2 million in the first half of fiscal 2023, with a slightly higher rate partially offset by a lower average outstanding revolver balance.
Other expense of $1.0 million for the first half of fiscal 2023 was primarily attributable to translation losses related to the Company’s euro denominated liabilities.
The fiscal 2023 first half effective tax rate was 175.9% compared to -131.1% in the prior fiscal year first half. The full domestic valuation allowance, along with the mix of foreign earnings by jurisdiction, resulted in the increase to the effective tax rate.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Comparison between December 30, 2022 and June 30, 2022
As of December 30, 2022, the Company had net working capital of $124.0 million, which represents an increase of $0.6 million, or 0.5%, from the net working capital of $123.4 million as of June 30, 2022.
Cash increased by $1.0 million to $13.5 million as of December 30, 2022, versus $12.5 million as of June 30, 2022. As of December 30, 2022, the majority of the cash is at the Company’s overseas operations in Europe ($4.2 million) and Asia-Pacific ($8.2 million).
Trade receivables of $39.4 million were down $6.0 million, or approximately 13.3%, when compared to last fiscal year-end. The impact of foreign currency translation was to increase accounts receivable by $0.5 million versus June 30, 2022. As a percent of sales, trade receivables finished at 62.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to 55.1% for the comparable period in fiscal 2022 and 59.8% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.
Inventories increased by $9.1 million, or 7.6%, versus June 30, 2022 to $136.8 million. The impact of foreign currency translation was to increase inventories by $1.5 million versus June 30, 2022. The remaining increase was seen primarily at the Company’s operations in the Netherlands ($4.4 million) and Singapore ($5.6 million). The Singapore increase was the result of a temporary delay in the shipment of certain oil and gas transmission products into China. The Netherlands increase was primarily driven by an imbalance in the supply chain, resulting in excess inventory waiting for missing components to finish assembly, or waiting for customers to accept shipment. There was an offsetting decrease at the North American operations ($3.0 million) resulting from increased focus on purchase quantities and timing of deliveries. On a consolidated basis, as of December 30, 2022, the Company’s backlog of orders to be shipped over the next six months approximates $124.0 million, compared to $101.2 million at June 30, 2022 and $98.9 million at December 31, 2021. As a percentage of six-month backlog, inventory has decreased from 126% at June 30, 2022 to 110% at December 30, 2022.
Net property, plant and equipment decreased $1.9 million (4.6%) to $39.7 million versus $41.6 million at June 30, 2022. In the first fiscal quarter of 2023, the Company reclassified approximately $2.8 million of assets to Assets Held for Sale related to a building in Belgium that was then sold during the second fiscal quarter of 2023. The Company had capital spending of $4.7 million in the first half, as well as a favorable exchange impact ($0.2 million). These increases were partially offset by depreciation of $2.9 million. Capital spending occurring in the first half was primarily related to replacement capital. In total, the Company expects to invest between $9 and $11 million in capital assets in fiscal 2023. The Company continues to review its capital plans based on overall market conditions and availability of capital, and may make changes to its capital plans accordingly. The Company’s capital program is focused on modernizing key core manufacturing, assembly and testing processes and improving efficiencies at its facilities around the world.
Accounts payable as of December 30, 2022 of $28.9 million was up $0.4 million, or 1.3%, from June 30, 2022. The impact of foreign currency translation was to increase accounts payable by $0.5 million versus June 30, 2022. The remaining decrease is primarily related to the timing of purchasing activities.
Total borrowings and long-term debt as of December 30, 2022 decreased $4.6 million to $31.9 million versus $36.5 million at June 30, 2022. During the first half, the Company reported negative free cash flow of $4.7 million (defined as operating cash flow less acquisitions of fixed assets), driven by the payment of a bonus accrual and the first half increase to inventory. However, the Company generated $7.2 million in cash through the sale of the Belgian facility. The Company ended the second quarter with total debt, net of cash, of $18.4 million, compared to $24.0 million at June 30, 2022, for a net improvement of $5.6 million.
Total equity increased $2.6 million, or 2.0%, to $133.8 million as of December 30, 2022. The net loss during the first half decreased equity by $0.9 million, while a favorable foreign currency translation increased equity by $2.1 million. The net change in common stock and treasury stock resulting from the accounting for stock-based compensation increased equity by $1.1 million. The net remaining increase in equity of $0.3 million primarily represents the amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service cost on the Company’s defined benefit pension plans, along with the unrealized gain on cash flow hedges.
The Company's June 29, 2018 credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. ("BMO"), as amended through the Ninth Amendment dated June 30, 2022, remains in effect, and there have been no material changes in the terms of the Credit Agreement since the end of the Company's most recent fiscal year. As of December 30, 2022, the Company's borrowing capacity on the Revolving Loans under the Credit agreement was $39,476,000 and the Company had approximately $20,096,000 of available borrowings. In addition to the Credit Agreement, the Company has established unsecured lines of credit that used from time to time to secure certain performance obligations by the Company. As of December 30, 2022, the Company also had cash of $13.5 million, primarily at its overseas operations. These funds, with some restrictions and tax implications, are available for repatriation as deemed necessary by the Company.
The Company expects capital expenditures to be approximately $9 - $11 million in fiscal 2023. These anticipated expenditures reflect the Company's plans to invest in modern equipment to drive efficiencies, quality improvements, and cost reductions.
The Company's significant contractual obligations as of December 30, 2022 are disclosed in Note N "Lease Liabilities" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There are no material undisclosed guarantees. As of December 30, 2022, the Company had no additional material purchase obligations other than those created in the ordinary course of business related to inventory and property, plant and equipment, which generally have terms of less than 90 days. The Company also has long-term obligations related to its postretirement plans which are discussed in detail in Note G "Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Postretirement medical claims are paid by the Company as they are submitted. In fiscal 2023, the Company expects to contribute $0.8 million to postretirement benefits based on actuarial estimates; however, these amounts can vary significantly from year to year because the Company is self-insured. In fiscal 2023, the Company expects to contribute $0.6 million to its defined benefit pension plans, the minimum contribution required. the Company does not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements.
Management believes that available cash, the Credit Agreement, the unsecured lines of credit, cash generated from future operations, and potential access to debt markets will be adequate to fund the Company's cash and capital requirements for the foreseeable future.
