Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollar figures in tables in thousands, except per share amounts)

(unaudited)


Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Selected Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

These consolidated unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. All dollar figures presented in tables in the notes to consolidated financial statements are in thousands, except per share amounts. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the SEC's rules and regulations for interim reporting. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 30, 2022.

Year End

We use a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Friday in December. Our fiscal years ending December 29, 2023 and December 30, 2022 each are 52 weeks. References to 2023 and 2022 relate to the fiscal years then ended, respectively. The three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 each are 13 weeks. References to the second quarter of 2023 and 2022 relate to the three-month periods then ended.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods presented. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from the estimates made by management. Significant estimates include inventory valuation and impairment analysis for both definite‑lived intangible assets and goodwill.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits and financial instruments which are readily convertible into cash and have original maturities of 90 days or less at the time of acquisition.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and long-term debt, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, approximate fair value.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when control of promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. This amount is recorded as net sales in our consolidated statements of operations.

Transaction price – In most of our contracts, prices are generally determined by a customer-issued purchase order and generally remain fixed over the duration of the contract. Certain contracts contain variable consideration, including early-payment discounts and rebates. When a contract includes variable consideration, we evaluate the estimate of the variable consideration to determine whether the estimate needs to be constrained; therefore, we include the variable consideration in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur. Variable consideration estimates are updated at each reporting date. Historically, we have not incurred significant costs to obtain a contract. All amounts billed to a customer relating to shipping and handling are classified as net sales, while all costs incurred by us for shipping and handling are classified as cost of sales.

Performance obligations – Substantially all of our performance obligations pertain to promised goods (“products”), which are primarily comprised of fluid delivery subsystems, weldments, and other components. Most of our contracts contain a single performance obligation and are generally completed within twelve months. Product sales are recognized at a point-in-time, generally upon delivery, as such term is defined within the contract, as that is when control of the product has transferred. Products are covered by a standard assurance warranty, generally extended for a period of one to two years depending on the customer, which promises that delivered products conform to contract specifications. As such, we account for such warranties under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 460, Guarantees, and not as a separate performance obligation.

Contract balances – Accounts receivable represents our unconditional right to receive consideration from our customers. Accounts receivable are carried at invoice price less an estimate for doubtful accounts and estimated payment discounts. Payment terms vary by customer but are generally due within 15-60 days. Historically, we have not incurred significant payment issues with our customers. We had no significant contract assets or liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets in any of the periods presented.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2021‑08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805). This ASU requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue recognition guidance in ASC Topic 606. At the acquisition date, the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the acquired contracts. We adopted the ASU on the first day of 2023 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Cloud Computing Implementation Costs

We capitalize implementation costs associated with hosting arrangement that are service contracts. These costs are recorded to prepaid expenses or other noncurrent assets. To-date, these costs are those incurred to implement a new company-wide enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system. The balance of capitalized cloud computing implementation costs, net of accumulated amortization, was $11.1 million and $11.6 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 30, 2022, respectively, and is included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets. The related amortization expense was $0.2 million and $0.2 million for the second quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively, and is included in selling, general, and administrative expense on our consolidated statements of operations.

Total intangible assets	$	128,069	$	(56,047)	$	—	$	72,022


Note 5 – Leases

Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For purposes of calculating operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities, we use the non-cancelable lease term plus options to extend that we are reasonably certain to take. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our leases generally do not provide an implicit rate. As such, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

We lease facilities under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various dates during the years 2024 through 2031. In addition to base rental payments, we are generally responsible for our proportionate share of operating expenses, including facility maintenance, insurance, and property taxes. As these amounts are variable, they are not included in lease liabilities.

The components of lease expense are as follows:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2023		July 1, 2022		June 30, 2023		July 1, 2022
Operating lease cost	$	2,393	$	2,239	$	4,804	$	4,284

Supplemental cash flow information related to leases is as follows:


	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2023		July 1, 2022
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities:
Operating cash flows from operating leases	$	4,602	$	3,802

Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases is as follows:


	June 30, 2023	December 30, 2022
Weighted-average remaining lease term of operating leases	5.0 years	5.3 years
Weighted-average discount rate of operating leases	3.2%	3.0%

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable leases are as follows as of June 30, 2023:


2023, remaining	$	4,816
2024	9,231
2025	8,575
